Flying the 180 QX HD
Takeo
Increase the throttle until the model is approximately 2 ft. (600mm) off the ground and check the trim so the model
fl ies as desired. Once the trim is adjusted, begin fl ying the model.
Typical fl ight times for the included battery range from 5 to 10 minutes.
Low Voltage Cuto (LVC)
LVC decreases the power to the motors when the battery voltage gets low. When the motor power decreases and the
blue and red LEDs on the 5-in-1 unit are solid, land the aircraft immediately and recharge the fl ight battery.
LVC does not prevent the battery from over-discharge during storage.
NOTICE: Repeated fl ying to LVC will damage the battery.
Landing
To land, slowly decrease the throttle while in a low-level hover. After landing, disconnect and remove the battery from
the aircraft after use to prevent trickle discharge. Fully charge your battery before storing it. During storage, make sure
the battery charge does not fall below 3V per cell.
