INSTALLING ELECTRONICS TO YOUR HUMMINGBIRD

The electronics used to operate the Hummingbird helicopter install with servo tape. This will securely mount the electronic compo-

nents to the frame of the helicopter for proper operation. Be sure that the diagram on page 3 reflects the wiring connections that you

make to the mounted model. (note: the below photos are an example layout)

Warning!

Only use double sided servo tape for

mounting your electronics. Gluing the

electronics may harm them and make

future maintainance impossible.

3. Mount the receiver.

6. Plug in channel 3 for throttle

(mixer board).

ROUTING THE ANTENNA

To provide the best possible reception for the model, the Hummingbird comes with a plastic tube for routing the antenna. Put a small hole

in one end and pull the antenna all the way through leaving about 2 to 3 inches of slack. Wrap the antenna around the tube. After the

antenna is almost completely wrapped around the plastic tube place a hole at the other end of the tube to secure the end of the antenna.

MOUNTING THE BATTERY

The Hummingbird uses a NiMH battery. Both 8.4V and 9.6V Bird Seed batteries will work and fit in

the provided battery brackets using a rubber band.

1. The battery slides back and forth on it's supports so you can adjust the center of gravity on the

helicopter.

2. To test your results hold the helicopter by the flybar as pictured. Move the battery to have the

helicopter sit level or very slightly nose heavy.

1x (Optional) female connector

First remove the main motor by

locating and removing the two mounting

screws under the main chassis. Immerse the motor in a cup

of water. Connect the motor to the 3 volt battery holder Red

wire to red wire black wire to black wire. (Tip – a female

connector can be attached to the battery box for quick

connection to the motor). Install batteries and Run motor for

four minutes to a maximum of five minutes. Remove motor

from water immersion and dry. Place one drop of light oil

(CN2024T Tri-Flow oil) on each brass bushing for

lubrication. Reinstall motor checking carefully for smooth

gear mesh.

(This procedure is only required to be performed once and

only on a new motor).
