Contact Megatech at (201)662-8500 for further assistance. 7) Once this is complete turn the Chopper-1 OFF and then turn OFF the transmitter. NOTE: It might be diďŹcult for you to tell which way the tail motor is spinning. You can also perform this check when you start to ďŹy by moving the control stick and seeing which way the Chopper-1 spins after it has been trimmed correctly by following the directions on page 9.

Important Tip: Always perform a motor-check and radio-range check with the help of a friend or parent. Doing so alone may cause the Chopper-1 to get away from you and cause damage. RADIO RANGE CHECK Before you switch ON your Chopper-1 ALWAYS make sure to release the throttle control stick (left) so the rotor blades do not start up unexpectedly when the Chopper-1 is switched ON. Always follow the safety start up procedure. PRE-FLIGHT CHECK NOTE: THE TRANSMITTER IS ALWAYS THE FIRST TO BE SWITCHED ON, AND THE LAST TO BE SWITCHED OFF! Chopper1.indd 8-9 LEFT TURN RIGHT TURN 7) Turning the Chopper-1 is accomplished by pushing the tail rotor control stick on the transmitter in the appropriate direction. To turn the Chopper-1 to the right, push the tail rotor control stick to the right. To turn the Chopper-1 to the left, push the tail rotor control stick to the left. The Chopper-1 will continue to turn as long as you are holding the control stick.

If you increase or decrease the throttle speed too quickly the helicopter may crash. 5) To reduce rotor speed and decrease your altitude, decrease the throttle input by pulling the throttle control stick back slowly. When the left control stick is pulled all the way back the rotor blades will stop spinning. 4) To reach an altitude you desire you will need to continue to increase throttle speed by pushing the throttle control stick forward. (SBEVBMMZJODSFBTFUIFUISPUUMFTQFFECZQVTIJOHUIFUISPUUMFDPOUSPMTUJDLGPSXBSE Continue to increase the throttle speed until the Chopper-1 lifts oďŹ the ground.
