Warnings and safety notes
The following safety instructions must be strictly observed. For property damage, personal injury or conse­quential damage caused by improper use or non-observance of the safety instructions the XciteRC Modell­bau GmbH & Co. KG accepts no liability. In these cases, the warranty becomes void. Move your model always with the maximum caution and responsibility, otherwise it may cause damage to other property or even physical injury. We therefore recommend to secure the operation with a third party liability insurance. If you already have a liability insurance policy, check before start-up the model, whether radio-controlled models are covered by a corresponding amount.
The product contains small parts that can cause injury if swallowed, and must therefore be kept
away from children under 3 years.
• The product is not a toy and not suitable for children under 14 years.
• The operation of radio-controlled models requires practice. In the beginning operate your new model therefore with extra caution and familiarize yourself with the response to your commands.
WARNING: The safe operation requires concentration and quick reaction. Do not operate your
model if you are tired or under the influence of drugs or alcohol – risk of accident and injury!
WARNING: The control of this model is done via radio signals, which can be influenced by the
environment. This may cause a suddenly loss of control of your model. The model may only be operated
on a suitable and sufficiently large room without obstacles.
• Operate your model therefore only with sufficient light within line of sight, away from cars, traffic and peo­ple – risk of accident and injury!
ATTENTION: due to the small size and weight, the model should not be exposed to drafts or a
strong winds. Avoid flights near open windows or air-outlets of an air-conditioning system - crash haz­ard!
• Do not operate your model during a thunder storm or near radio towers or power lines.
• Radio remote controlled models may not be operated at any public space by implication (streets, roads, squares or lakes). Before operation please ask where the operation is allowed. This also applies to private property, here the consent of the owner is required.
WARNING: Keep your fingers or loose clothing or hair away from the rotating parts or the propeller
/ rotor unit - risk of injury!
• Always switch on the transmitter first, then the model. NOTE: during the operation of the transmitter must remain switched on!
• Never operate your model with low transmitter batteries, because this reduces the range of your model dramatically.
• If the drive battery is empty, the model first slow down until it no longer reacts properly to your commands. Stop the operation and change the drive battery or charge it again.
• Pay attention to the instructions and warnings for this and any other equipment used by you (chargers, rechargeable battery packs, etc.).
WARNING: Keep packaging material, small parts, chemicals and electrical components away from
children – risk of accident and injury!
The model and the transmitter may be neither get humid nor wet, especially the electronic compo-
nents (receiver, speed controller, servo) and, if used, lithium batteries, are not waterproof! The model may not be used in the rain (or heavy fog), do not drive in wet grass or through puddles or snow. WARNING:
Fire or explosion due to moisture in lithium batteries!
• Plastic parts (eg. fuselage or main blades) is less flexible and can break more easily at cold temperatures (below 10 ° C).
• The modification of the model is not permitted for safety and CE approval regulations, which applies in particular to the transmitter, receiver and speed controller. Maintenance or repairs using original replace­ment parts are excluded.
• After use, first turn off the model and then the transmitter.

• Store batteries separately on a non-combustible surface.
• The drive components (motor and speed controller) or the car battery may become hot during operation.
EN
WARNING: Risk of burns! Let these components cool down completely after the operation (and
also before each battery change)!
Operation of the model is performed solely at the risk of the operator. Only a careful and deliberate operation protects against physical injury and damage to property.
Handling precautions for batteries or rechargeable batteries
• Keep batteries away from children! Never let batteries unattended, as they can be swallowed by children or pets!
• Use only the recommended or equivalent type of batteries / rechargeable batteries.
• If possible, always replace all batteries at the same time, never use new and used batteries and batteries
• Remove the rechargeable batteries from the device before charging.
WARNING: Do not expose batteries / rechargeable batteries to heat or throw into fire – fire or

WARNING: Insert batteries / rechargeable batteries with the correct polarity, no short-circuiting –
fire or explosion hazard!
with different charge levels simultaneously.
WARNING: Do not use defective or damaged batteries or rechargeable batteries – fire hazard!
Risk of chemical burns on contact with skin, use protective gloves!
WARNING: Do not attempt to recharge non-rechargeable batteries in a charger – fire or explo-
sion hazard!
WARNING: Charging may take place only with a suitable charger for the type of battery on a fire-
proof surface and under constant adult supervision – fire hazard!
• Immediately remove used batteries from the devices.
NOTE: NiMH batteries must be checked at least every 3 months and, if necessary, recharged, oth-
erwise because of the typic self-discharge they may get deep discharged and damaged! Therefore, better use so-called RTU batteries with a very low self-discharge.
NOTE: note the specified storage voltage for lithium batteries. Is a completely full or empty lithium
battery time stored for a longer time, it can be damaged.
The XciteRC Modellbau GmbH & Co. KG cannot monitor the proper use of the battery or batteries you use, therefore, the warranty is excluded due to incorrect charging or discharging.

Introduction
As you are about to see, the Xcite Flybarless 3D 200 truly is an ultra micro heli experience unlike any other. Its advanced flybarless design reduces drag on the rotor head and more importantly, under the precision in the three-axis gyroscope complement of self-control, it greatly increases stability of the body. This, combined with its exceptionally lightweight airframe, delivers a level of power and responsiveness that eclipses that of any ultra micro heli you have flown before. Inverted flight, loops, lips, rolls,funnels, wash pot- the Flybarless 3D 200 can do it all, indoors or out, with power to spare. If you‘re transitionjng from a basic CCPM or fixed pitched heli, you‘ll find the Flybarless 3D 200 is a great way to get used to flying mora agile CCPM helis without having to invest a lot in expensive equipment or repairs. Before you take the first flight, please take time to read through this manual. lt contains important pre-flight information as well as useful tips on binding your transmitter that will help ensure your first flight is a great one.
Helicopter Parameters Length 200 mm High 80 mm Weight 37 g Rotating propeller diameter 204 mm TailRotor blade Diameter 36 mm Battery Specification 3.7 V 180 mAh 15C Flight time 4 to 5 min
Battery charging
• Connect charger to the USB port of computer by using USB Line.
• Connect the Li-po battery to the Charger by using Charger conversion wire, at this time. the charging indicator light shows red. When the battery is full, the light turns green.
• The Charger can charge two batteries at the same time, and if no battery connect, the green light bright.
Notice: Only use the charger delivered with the helicopter.
WARNING: Never attempt to power the charger from an AC outlet without the use of a proper ACto DC
adapter/power supply. - fire hazard!
First Flight preparation
• Make sure the battery power Is full both for TX and helicopter
• Before open the power of TX, please make sure the TH. Stick at the bottom and the switch of TH.HOLD and 3D mode in back position (back cover direction).
• Make sure the TX is binding with helicopter, or please rebind them.
• Please open TX first, then connect the battery with the RX board on helicopter to bind with TX. When close, please cut the power of helicopter first, and then turn off the TX.
• Flying in a suitable area, away from people, cars, electric pylon, pool and so on.
