The left knob is a fine adjustment for pitch and throttle, the right knob is for your ‘pro rate", or how quickly the tail responds, Put both so they are at the 12 o'clock position. The top switches are to be in their rear positions. As you become familiar with your 450, move the knobs to find your preference. The First Flight: If you are new to RC helis, we recommend “training wheels", which you can make using 24° dowels and 4 ping pong balls, or are available through your dealer. Your firs fight be over short grass. Plug in the battery and wait for the ESC to initialize (the beeps). Slowly advance the throttle. Vibration is normal as the blades settle to place. Your HAUSLER 450 SE V2 will slowly stat to lif. Keep Your first few fights very close to the ground to identify any needed trim changes. When you are comfortable, let the heli climb to two or three feet and it will stabilize in ‘clean air. Keep the heli in front of you. Make trim adjustments as needed. For example: If the heli wants to wander to right, move the aileron trim 2 ~ 3 clicks to the lef. Ifthe heli wants to wander backwards, move the trim forward. When you crash: DO NOT PANIC! Most crashes result in only minor damage and can be fixed with new parts and a few minutes. We carry a complete selection of replacements parts. Loading the Transmitter T6 Software: CDis PC compatible (not Mac). You can fine tune your set up from scale fight to full 3D capability using the software. Your transmitter must be connected to your PC using the USB cord for the changes to be made in the transmitter.

The helicopter may cause accident or loss in case of inadequate maintenance. We recommend that you develop the habit of regular inspection to ensure your favorite aircraft and maintain the best performance at any time. Structural Inspection Focused of the Main Rotor 1.Main rotor housing : When the operation of main rotor exception occurs, it will have unobvious shock during flight. Please check the main rotor and shaft to find if they are out of shape or the balance is inadequate. Replace the defective parts if necessary. 2. Main rotor oil seal: It will have elastic fatigue by long use and will affect the flight stability. It is recommended to replace it right now. 3. Main rotor holder: Generally speaking, the thread pitch is confirmed before flight, however the thread pitch stoke still needs to be adjusted before operating, If you fly often for continuous movements such as dramatic action, etc., you should focus on checking plastic parts, bearings and ball bearings. It needs to replace new parts in case there is obvious clearance between plastic parts and ball bearing or in case the steel ball of bearing drops off. @ Before flying, the main rotor must be checked if it is in bad condition of deformation and damage, etc. The balance is very important. If it is not well balanced, more loss Attention! of parts, airframe and getloose will occur due to the flying shock. 4. Control arm assembly: Checking each control arm and locking screws regularly to find whether the arms work smoothly or have less sway can ensure the stable performance of hovering and control precision. 5. Control pane! assembly: When the control panel assembly has serious virtual spaces, it will lead to bad stability and control performance, and maybe appear unexplained phenomena of the main rotor blades. It must be replaced when it is in serious condition Inspection Focus of the Fuselage Assembly 1. Main bearing: The functional status of each bearing must be examined after about 50 times take-off and landing under long time normal load operation. And it is recommended to replace new parts in order to maintain smooth action and reliability. If fierce 3D flying or serious crashes are needed frequently, it is suggested that the main shaft bearings be checked frequently. In case the main bearing has obvious clearance or obvious barrier during rotation, it must be replaced to a new one. 2. Unilateral bearing set: It is not easy to be damaged, but it is recommended that you remove it after 50 times take-off and landing period, clean and apply oil to it. Ifthe main gear has obvious unusual movement, please replace the unilateral bearing set. 7Chosen Inspection Focus of Control Rod Set When assembling control rod, control arm connection mount and tail servo, please pay more attention to keep each connection part smooth and make the shaft have less swaying clearance. This is very important because it will affect the flight performance. Natural wear or bad site also may cause abrasion and loose situation. In case any clearance of the rod occurs or the rod is easy to loose, please replace a new part to ensure flight performance and safety. Inspection Focus of the Main Rotor System 4. Tail Gear assembly: Please pay attention to the inspection of tail rotor bearings. When you find the bearing has obvious clearance, please replace a new one to avoid biting deadly. And do not lack the tail servo so tight. The operation must work well and avoid meltdown of plastic parts 2. Tail rotor control sliding seat: When flying the helicopter over the lawn, please pay attention to check if there is grass involved into the sliding seat when it is landing. If so, the grass must be cleared away before flying again. Otherwise, it may block the movement and make the tail rotor lose control as a result. In ordinary maintenance, please try to avoid using lubricating oil to the outside mechanism. This will help to protect the parts from dust or other sundries. If not, it will wear away other parts’ bearings and the sliding seat won't work 3. Tail rotor holder: Please remove the tail rotor holder for cleaning and maintenance after it finishes 50 times take-off and landing. Make sure the bearing clearance is correct. If the rotation doesn't work smoothly or the clearance is large, please replace the bearing to ensure that the control system is perfect 4. Tail Rotor: When flying, if the tail rotor contacts to earth, please have them checked immediately. If it has obvious appearance damage, please replace them right away to avoid shocking and damaging other parts. © Screw-loose will lead to unexpected accident, be sure to check the caution: [ck regularly. 18GERMARK (excusive N American cstrbutor BFE CE 5 9830 Bell Ranch Dr, #101, Santa Fe Springs, CA, 90670 - United States Tel: 562-906-0808 | Fax: §62-906-0820 Email: sales@cermark com wwwwhauslerre.com (available soon) Mee cA
