Safety Instructions
OPERATING YOUR MODEL SAFELY
Operate the helicopter in spacious areas with no people ne­arby. !Warning: Do NOT operate the helicopter in the following
places and situations (or else you risk severe accidents):
• in places where children gather or people pass through
• in residential areas and parks indoors and in limited space
• in windy weather or when there is any rain, snow, fog or other precipitation If you do not observe these instructions you may be held reliable for personal injury or property damage!
Always check the R/C system prior to operating your helicopter. When the R/C system batteries get weaker, the operational range of the R/C system decreases. Note that you may lose control of your model when operating it under such conditions.
Keep in mind that other people around you might also be operating a R/C model. Never use a frequency which someone else is using at the same time. Radio signals will be mixed and you will lose control of your model.
If the model shows irregular behavior, bring the model to a halt immediately. Turn off all power switches and disconnect the bat­teries. Investigate the reason and x the problem. Do not operate the model again as long as the problem is not solved, as this may lead to further trouble and unforeseen accidents.
! Warning: In order to prevent accidents and personal injury, be sure to observe the following:
Before ying the helicopter, ensure that all screws are tightened. A single loose screw may cause a major accident. Replace all broken or defective parts with new ones, as damaged parts lead to crashes. Never approach a spinning rotor. Keep at least 10 meters/yards away from a spinning rotor blades. Do not
touch the motor immediately after use. It may be hot enough to cause burns. Perform all necessary maintenance.
PRIOR TO ADJUSTING AND OPERATING YOUR MODEL, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING
! Warning: Operate the helicopter only outdoors and out of
people’s reach as the main rotor operates at high rpm! ! Warning: While adjusting, stand at least 10 meters/yards away from the helicopter!
Novice R/C helicopter pilots should always seek advice from experienced pilots to obtain hints with assembly and for pre-ight adjustments. Note that a badly assembled or insufciently adju­sted helicopter is a safety hazard! In the beginning, novice R/C helicopter pilots should always be assisted by an experienced pilot and never y alone! Throttle channel should be in motor OFF position while powering up. When switching the R/C system ON or OFF, always proceed in the following order:
When switching ON:
Position the throttle control stick (on transmitter) to a position where the LOGO 10 motor does not operate.
• Turn on the transmitter.
• Turn on the receiver.
• Connect the motor battery.
• Operate your model.
When switching OFF:
• Turn off the motor (move throttle control to a position where motor does not operate).
• Wait until the rotor head has stopped spinning.
• Disconnect the motor battery.
• Turn off receiver.
• Turn off transmitter.

3 Motor Installation
3.1 Motor Attachment
Bag 1 • Bag 12
When installing the motor, tighten the socket head cap screws only slightly, making sure that the motor can still be moved on the motor
plate.
Do not tighten the set screw fully until the nal position of the pinion on the motor shaft is determined. This is done after installing the main gear. There are two options for attaching the pinion:
1. For securing the pinion, you may atten the motor shaft where the set screw meets the motor shaft - without making a at surface on the motor shaft.
2. Alternatively, you may screw the set screw directly onto the motor shaft. For this it is required that the set screw has an appropriate rim for engaging the motorshaft (all Mikado pinions have this rim). Note, however, that after attaching the set screw once, the rim becomes blunt and may not be used again.

4 Main Gear
After having attached the freeway hub of the main gear to the rotor shaft, pull the rotor shaft slightly upward and simultaneously push the main shaft collar down onto ball bearing. Next tighten the set screws. The rotor shaft should turn easily and it should not have any axial play.
4.2 Adjusting Gear Backlash
The gear backlash must be adju­sted (see drawings). Excess back­lash can cause premature wear of the main gear and will lead to shorter ight times.
too much backlash correct backlash too little backlash

Bag 5 • Bag 10
Should you have difculty mounting the 2x10 mm pin, carefully tap it with a rubber hammer, or use a vice. The 5x10x4 bearings can also be moun­ted on the rotor shaft using a vice and tapping the shaft softly with a rubber hammer. If the tail rotor shaft shows axial play after closing the two halves of the tail rotor case, use one or two of the 5x10x0.1 washers which are included in the bag.

It is important that the tail pitch pla­te #3030 is aligned properly on the control sleeve #2455. In the case of misalignment, the control sleeve may become deformed.
The mounted tail pitch plate should be able to move on the tail rotor shaft with little resistance.

Bag 6 • Bag 10 • Bag 12
Important: Check belt tension prior to every ight. Incorrect belt tension can cause disturbances for your model R/C system. In­correct belt tension can lead to a situation where you lose control of the tail rotor of your helicopter.
For tightening the belt pull the tail boom holder toward the front. Belt tension is xed with the M3x18 sok­ket head cap screw for tightening the
tail boom holder to the tail boom. The
belt should be tight. When pressing with your ngers, both sides of the belt should not come in contact with
each other.

For mounting the tail assembly in the side-frames, pull the rear ends of the side-frames apart.
For adjusting the gear backlash, insert a strip of paper between the main gear and the drive pulley, then press the drive pulley against the main gear.
