Control Tests

CAUTION: You must complete the Rudder and Cyclic tests prior to ﬂ ight. Failure to complete the tests ensuring the sensor directions are not reversed can cause

the helicopter to crash, resulting in property damage and injury.

Rudder

1. Power on the transmitter.

2. Turn TH HOLD ON and put transmitter in normal mode.

3. Connect the helicopter battery to the ESC.

NOTICE: Do not allow the helicopter to move until the Status LED is solid blue and

all menu LEDs are OFF. The gyro will not operate correctly if the helicopter moves

before the Status LED is solid blue.

Cyclic

When using a ﬂ ybarless rotor head, you are controlling rotational rates while the

AR7200BX controls the servos. You are not directly controlling the servos with the

transmitter.

It is normal for the swashplate to slowly move back to its original position

after a stick input and for the servos to not move at the same speed as your

control sticks.

Cyclic and Collective Control Test

Turn on Throttle Hold when doing the control tests.

Elevator

Aileron

Collective Pitch

Motor

Place the helicopter outdoors on a clean, ﬂ at and level surface (concrete or

asphalt) free of obstructions. Always stay clear of moving rotor blades.

1. The motor beeps twice when the helicopter's ESC arms properly. Before you

continue, conﬁ rm that TH HOLD is ON.

WARNING: The motor will spin when throttle is increased while TH HOLD

is OFF.

2. Check the swashplate directions to ensure they are moving in the correct

direction. Please refer to the diagrams above for reference.

4. Move the rudder stick to the right. The

tail rotor blades move as shown. If they

do not move as shown, reverse the rudder

channel in the transmitter (refer to your

transmitter manual for instructions).

5. Release the rudder control. Manually turn

the helicopter nose to the left. The tail ro-

tor blades automatically move as shown.

If they do not move as shown, refer to the

AR7200BX manual for information on reversing the tail sensor direction

(Setup menu point F).

1. Tilt the helicopter forward. The swashplate should tilt backward.

2. Tilt the helicopter backward. The swashplate should tilt forward.

3. Roll the helicopter left. The swashplate should roll right.

4. Roll the helicopter right. The swashplate should roll left.

5. If the swashplate does not move in the correct direction, you will need to

reverse the cyclic sensor direction. Refer to the AR7200BX manual for more

information (Setup menu point M).

WARNING: Stay at least 30 feet (10 meters) away from the helicopter

when the motor is running. Do not attempt to ﬂ y the helicopter at this

time.

3. Ensure the throttle is lowered completely. Conﬁ rm the transmitter is still set

to normal ﬂ ight mode. Turn throttle hold off at this time. Slowly increase the

throttle until the blades begin to spin. The main blades spin clockwise when

viewing the helicopter from the top. The tail rotor blades spin counterclockwise

when viewing the helicopter from the right-hand side.
