then select the AXE 400 3D RTF. If there is new technical
information or changes to this model a “tech notice” box will
appear in the upper left corner of the page.

AMA

We urge you to join the AMA (Academy of Model Aeronautics)
and a local R/C club. The AMA is the go verning body of model
aviation and membership is required to fl y at AMA clubs.
Though joining the AMA provides many benefi ts, one of the
primary reasons to join is liability protection. Coverage is not
limited to fl ying at contests or on the club fi eld. It e ven applies
to fl ying at public demonstrations and air shows. Failure to
comply with the Safety Code (excerpts printed in the back of
the manual) may endanger insurance cov erage . Additionally,
training programs and instructors are available at AMA club
sites to help you get started the right way. There are over

Failure to follow these safety precautions may result in
severe injury to yourself and others.

• Keep your face and body as well as all spectators away

from the plane of rotation of the rotors whenever the battery
is connected.

• Keep these items awa y from the rotors: loose clothing, shirt

sleeves, ties, scarfs, long hair or loose objects such as
pencils or screwdrivers that may fall out of shirt or jacket
pockets into the rotors.

• The spinning blades of a model helicopter can cause

serious injury. When choosing a fl ying site for your AXE
400 3D RTF, stay clear of buildings, trees and power lines.
A V OID fl ying in or near crowded areas. DO NO T fl y close to
people, children or pets. Maintain a safe pilot-to-helicopter
distance while fl ying.

1. Your AXE 400 3D RTF should not be considered a toy,

but rather a sophisticated, working model that functions very
much like a full-size helicopter. Because of its performance
capabilities, the AXE 400 3D RTF, if not assembled and
operated correctly, could possibly cause injury to yourself or
spectators and damage to property.

2. You must assemble the model according to the instructions.

Do not alter or modify the model, as doing so may result in
an unsafe or unfl yable model. In a few cases the instructions
may differ slightly from the photos. In those instances the
written instructions should be considered as correct.

3. You must correctly install all R/C and other components

so that the model operates correctly on the ground and in
the air.

2

4. You must check the operation of the model before every
fl ight to insure that all equipment is operating and that the
model has remained structurally sound. Be sure to check
linkages or other connectors often and replace them if they
show any signs of wear or fatigue.

5. If you are not an experienced pilot or have not fl own
this type of model before, we recommend that you get the
assistance of an experienced pilot in your R/C club for
your fi rst fl ights. If you’re not a member of a club, your local
hobby shop has information about clubs in your area whose
membership includes experienced pilots.

OPERA TIONAL W ARNINGS

CAUTION! A separate Battery Eliminator Circuit (BEC)
must be used if you decide to change the stock (Futaba®
S3114) servos to some other type of analog or digital servos.
We highly recommend the Castle Creations CC BEC 10A
Switching Regulator (CSEM0005).

DANGER! Please allow a 10 minute cool down period after
each fl ight so the Electronic Speed Control (ESC) can cool
down. Failure to do so may cause loss of control due to the
ESC overheating and shutting down.

DANGER! Please inspect the wooden main rotor blades
before each fl ight for damage. If any damage is found or if
the blades have been crashed, please replace the blades
before fl ying the model again.

which will reduce the power output to safe levels when the
safe operating temperatures ha ve been e xceeded. If this has
occurred please allow the model 10 minutes to cool down.

WARNING! The ESC does have a soft cut function that will
reduce the power output to protect the fl ight battery. Toward
the end of a fl ight, if you notice a slight power reduction, land
the model immediately and re-charge the battery. The fl ight
time of the AXE 400 3D RTF can be as long as 10 minutes
but this will vary depending on your fl ying style.

CAUTION! After a crash y ou must inspect all plastic parts on
the helicopter for damage before fl ying the model again.

CAUTION! If the rotor head speed ever drops suddenly in
fl ight please land the model immediately and remove the
body. Inspect the battery temperature and ensure that it
has not exceeded 140°F and ensure that the ESC has not
overheated. The ESC does ha v e a thermal protection built in

ELECTRIC MOTOR WARNING

Electric-powered models are very dangerous due to the
high power they are capable of generating instantly. Please
remove the pinion gear or unplug two of the motor wires
while working on the model.

The Dual Rate Switch changes the control rate of the
helicopter. The High Rate provides the maximum control
which is necessary for 3D fl ight and aerobatics. The low rate
reduces control throw which makes the model easier to fl y.
The low rate is recommended for your fi rst fl ight. Once you
have become accustomed to the AXE 400 3D RTF please
feel free to use high rate if you prefer.

TRANSMITTER FUNCTION SWITCHES

The Throttle Hold Switch is used to disab le the pow er output
of the motor but has no effect on the other controls. The
Throttle Hold Function was originally intended for autorotation
landings (off power descent to landing; this maneuver is
extremely diffi cult and it is recommended that you do not
attempt it unless you have no other choice).

In addition to autorotation the throttle hold function can be
used as a safety switch while handling the model since it
disables the motor . T urn the transmitter on and set the Throttle
Hold Switch to the on position. Now you can safely connect
the fl ight battery without having to worry about inadvertently
moving the throttle stick Once you place the model on the
ground, verify that the idle up switch is off and the throttle
stick has been moved to its lowest position. Then, simply
turn the throttle hold off. The model is now ready to fl y.

Another use for the throttle hold function is to disable the
motor before a crash without having to drop the collective
stick (possibly forcing the model into the ground). Disabling
the motor before a crash will prevent a lot of damage.

5

The Idle-Up function is disabled within the transmitter for saf ety .
If you are beginning aerobatics or are an experienced pilot and
feel you ha ve a need for the Idle Up function, then please f ollow
the instructions on page 11 to enable this function.

LEFT CYCLIC

Moving the cyclic stick left will cause the helicopter to tilt left
and start moving in that direction.

AFT CYCLIC

CONTROLS

RIGHT CYCLIC

Moving the cyclic stick right will cause the helicopter to tilt
right and start moving that direction.

Moving the cyclic stick backw ards (towards you) will cause the
helicopter to tilt backwards and start moving that direction.

INCREASING THROTTLE & COLLECTIVE PITCH - CLIMB

TAIL ROTOR RIGHT

Moving the collective stick f orward (aw ay from you) will cause
the helicopter to climb higher.

DECREASING THROTTLE & COLLECTIVE PITCH ­DESCEND

Moving the collective stick backwards (towards you) will
cause the helicopter to descend.

TAIL ROTOR LEFT

Moving the tail rotor stick right will cause the helicopter nose
to move right (clockwise).

GET THE MODEL READY TO FLY

INSTALL BATTERIES IN THE TRANSMITTER

Remove the battery cover from the back of the transmitter and
install eight “AA” batteries into the transmitter. Double-chec k the
polarity of each battery before replacing the battery cover.

CHARGE THE FLIGHT BATTERY

Please follow the instructions provided with your battery and
charger. Charge your fl ight battery.

INSTALL THE FLIGHT BATTERY

Moving the tail rotor stick left will cause the helicopter nose
to move left (counterclockwise).

Remove the body by pulling outward on the upper body,
removing the grommets from the body mounts. Rotate the
body downward and pull outward on the two lower body
mounts while simultaneously pulling the body forward.

7

In the following step do not connect the fl ight battery to the
ESC until you are instructed to do so. With the power lead
facing downward, place the fl ight battery onto the battery
tray and attach using the battery strap as shown.

FIND A SUITABLE LOCATION TO FLY

During your fi rst fl ights it is important to have light winds and
an assistant to keep an eye on things around you. Also, if
you are fl ying from grass, make sure it has been cut low as
this will allow the helicopter to slide around without catching.
Make sure there are no obstacles in your fl ying area to
distract you during fl ight.

MIX WARNING

If the transmitter is turned on with the Throttle Hold or Idle
Up function switched on, the screen will show "MIX" and a
warning will sound. Please turn the Throttle Hold and Idle Up
functions off to continue.

CHECK THE TRANSMITTER VOL T AGE

TURN THE TRANSMITTER ON

V erify that the Throttle Hold and Idle Up functions are off and
slide the power switch up to turn the transmitter on.

Once the transmitter has been turned on check the voltage
display on the transmitter. If the voltage is 9.6V or less you
must replace the old alkaline batteries with new ones before
fl ying again.

CONNECTING THE FLIGHT BATTERY

Before connecting the fl ight batter y verify that the Idle Up
Switch and Throttle Hold switches are off and verify that the
throttle stick is in the lowest position.

Warning! Once the fl ight battery has been connected the
helicopter will have full pow er availab le. Please take proper
measures to ensure that the throttle stick is not moved
and that the Idle Up switch is not turned on while handling
the model.

TRACKING THE MAIN BLADES

WARNING! Always wear safety glasses when operating
this model or Tracking the Main Blades.

With the helicopter sitting still on a fl at surface, connect
the fl ight battery to the ESC. The helicopter must remain
still for the gyro to initialize properly. This process takes
approximately 5 seconds. The ESC will beep, indicating that
it is now armed and ready for fl ight. If this beep is not heard
then disconnect the fl ight battery from the ESC and ensure
that the Idle Up switch is turned off and the throttle stick is in
the lowest position.

Once the ESC and gyro have initialized, carry the model at
least 30ft from where you intend to stand during fl ight. Place
the model on the fl at, smooth ground.

The fi rst step before fl ying the helicopter is to verify that the
main rotor blades are “In Track”. This task is much easier if
you have an observer view the blades. This allows you to
concentrate on controlling the model.

With the helicopter on the ground at least 30 ft away from
you, slowly increase the throttle to bring the main rotor
up to speed and observe whether the rotational planes of

9

the blades are the same. If they are not, adjust one of the
linkages to bring the blades into the same plane.

TAKEOFF

to nose-in hovering, and try to lengthen the delay between
transitions. This will allow you to practice nose-in and still
give you a chance to get out of trouble . As you improv e y ou’ll
remain nose-in for longer periods of time.

During your fi rst fl ight it is important to have light winds and an
assistant to keep an eye on things around y ou. Also , if y ou are
fl ying from grass, make sure it’s cut low as this will allow the
helicopter to slide around without catching. Also make sure
there are no obstacles in your fl ying area to distract you.

Slowly add power and observe the model. If you feel it needs
trimming, do so before lift off. Y ou will fi nd that model helicopters
never allow you to return the sticks to center. Simply hold the
sticks as needed to keep a steady hover. Please don’t fi ght
the trim too much as it is a normal thing to experience. Winds
have a large effect on model helicopters. Please wait for
calmer days and slowly work into windy da ys .

You will notice the cyclic controls lag slightly behind your
inputs. This is perfectly normal and something you become
accustomed to. It is normal to drift around some in a hover,
until you get used to fl ying the model. The cyclic controls
on the AXE 400 3D RTF are fairly sensitive so only small
movements are necessary.

HOVERING

Once the helicopter is in the air simply try to keep the
helicopter in one spot. This will take some practice and wind
has a big effect on the stability of the helicopter. Be patient
and slowly progress. Trying to rush the learning process can
be costly.

LANDING

Level the helicopter into a steady ho v er and slowly decrease
power until the helicopter settles onto the ground.

BASIC MANEUVERS

Forward Flight: Now it’s time to work into basic forward
fl ight. Just take the basic hovering maneuvers listed above
and slowly fl y out farther and faster and always bring the
helicopter back after one pass. Pr actice controlled slow fl ight
in close as well. The more time you spend practicing here,
the easier things will be later on.

AEROBATICS

So you are getting comfortable in fast forward fl ight? Well,
now it’s time to slo wly progress into aerobatics. Once y ou are
in forward fl ight start using the idle up switch* which raises
the rotor RPM for aerobatics and allows the AXE 400 3D
RTF to fl y inverted (*please refer to page 11 to activate this
function). Also, in wind it may be diffi cult to descend to land
without the idle up on.

Chandelles: Your fi rst step is chandelles. Fly straight across
in front of you and pull up to a 45° angle. Now at the top , when
the helicopter slows down to a stop, apply left or right tail
rotor to bring the nose around 180° and continue back down
the 45° angle. As you progress with the maneuver you can
pull a greater angle than 45°, but 90° would be considered
a stall turn.

Loops: Once you become comfortable with the chandelles
and stall turns it’s time to move onto the loop. The key to the
loop is to enter with plenty of speed. Start pulling aft cyclic
to enter the loop and as the model transitions to inverted at
the top of the loop pull back on the throttle (towards negativ e
(–) collective). This will help maintain altitude. As the model
returns back to vertical add some positive (+) collective to
maintain the speed. One of the most common mistakes
made on loops is using too much negative (–) collective at
the top.

Once you are comfortable with hovering at different
orientations and landing, it’s time to move on to more
advanced maneuvers.

Slow Pirouettes: Add a small amount of tail rotor (left or
right) and try rotating the helicopter slightly sideways and
see if you can hold it there. If you become uncomfortable
bring the tail back towards you. Once you are comfor table,
try moving the helicopter to the side and turning back.

Then fl y back to the other side in straight lines. You can
try rotating the helicopter around 360°, which is called a
pirouette. The helicopter can drift during this maneuver so
make certain you have plenty of room when you fi rst star t
practicing.

Nose-In Hovering: After pirouettes it’s time to move onto
nose-in hovering. The best bet is to wait for a calm day. Take
off and climb to 15 feet, practice half pirouettes from tail-in

10

Flips: Be certain to start with plenty of altitude. From an
upright hover slowly add in full forward cyclic. As the model
approaches vertical, bring the collective stick back to center.
Now, as the model continues to inverted, you will need to
start adding in negative (–) collective (or pull the collective
stick back towards yourself). As the model transitions back
to vertical, again bring the collective stick back to the middle
and start adding in positive (+) collective as the model
returns back to upright. It’s simply a matter of timing. The
most important thing is, do not throw the sticks around. This
can cause the head speed to drop and may cause the tail
to drift.

Inverted Hovering: K eep in mind fl ying a helicopter inverted
is very diffi cult but can be learned. One of the main problems
is 3 out of 4 of the controls are reversed (forward/aft cyclic,
collective and tail rotor). You have to mentally reverse these
while fl ying. It will take some practice. Take the loop you
learned above and just hold the inverted portion for short

periods of time. As you become accustomed to the reversed
controls, you will extend the time inverted. It is very diffi cult
and will take some practice. Also, mak e sure you ha ve plenty
of altitude for recovery if needed.

ACTIVATING THE IDLE UP FUNCTION

WARNING! If y ou inadv ertently select the Idle-Up function

the throttle will instantly power up to at least 85% power
and this may damage the helicopter or possibly cause
injury to yourself or others. For safety leave this function
disabled until you require it. Switch to the Idle Up function
once you are up and hovering in the normal fl ight condition
and be sure to switch back to the Normal fl ight condition
before landing.

Please keep in mind that the pitch curve used for “Normal”
fl ight mode is -1 degree to +10 degrees. Once the Idle
Up function is enabled the Idle Up Pitch Curve will be -10
degrees to +10 degrees. The additional 9° of negative pitch
will cause the helicopter to be extremely sensitive to negativ e
pitch inputs. Care must be taken in order to avoid slamming
the model into the ground when fl ying in Idle Up mode.

QUICK REFERENCE TO

TRANSMITTER FUNCTIONS

Please refer to the included manufacturer’s instruction
manual for complete details for each function. The initial set
up of the transmitter suits a beginner modeler. If you feel
something needs to be changed, please use the items listed
below as a general guide.

[D/R] – Dual Rate. Adjustment range from 30% to 100%.
You may adjust these to suit your preferences. Default
Settings – 100% for High Rate and 70% for Lo w Rate. Lower
percentage equals less control throw.

[D/R - EXPO] – Exponential Rate. Adjustment range from
30% to 100%. You may adjust these to suit you. Lower
percentages will create a softer feeling around center stick.
Default Settings -50% for High Rate and -35% for Low Rate.

[GYRO] – Adjusts the amount of corrective gain the gyro
uses to make corrections. Higher percentages may hold the
tail better. If you notice the tail drifting in fl ight, then raise
the gain percentage. If you notice the tail oscillating quickly
reduce the gain. A gain of 45% was found to be the best
starting point.

[SWSH] – Adjust the cyclic and collective control rate.
Please use the dual rate function to adjust the left/right cyclic
and forward/aft cyclic rate. If you feel the model could use
some additional collective pitch please feel free to raise the
[P] function up to 10%. The starting value is +35% and the
maximum value that should be used is +45%.

If you are beginning aerobatics or are an experienced pilot
and feel you ha ve a need for the Idle Up function, then please
follow the instructions within the transmitter manual (Page

24) and enable the “I-TH” function. The Idle Up throttle and
pitch curves are already set up for you so only the function
needs to be enabled.

GOOD LUCK AND GREAT FLYING!
