Instructions
Turn the pitch knob, located on the top-right corner of the transmitter, to the 0 position. This is the setting recommended by the company, and all adjustments are best accomplished from this neutral position.
Turn the knob counter-clockwise to decrease the pitch curve, or clockwise to increase it. In a neutral position, the helicopter's blades will increase their pitch evenly throughout an increase in throttle; in other words, the pitch of the blades changes as the throttle joystick moves from 1/4 power all the way up to full power. At the zero setting, this variation continues at a consistent pace.
Choose how you want the helicopter to behave in the air. If you want the pitch to increase when the throttle joystick exceeds 1/2 power, turn the pitch adjustment knob clockwise. If you'd prefer more lift when the throttle is below 1/2 power, turn the pitch knob counterclockwise.
Turn the hover pitch knob, located on the top-left corner of the transmitter, to adjust the speed at which the blades spin during a hover. If you want the helicopter to be able to hover when little throttle is applied, turn the know counterclockwise; if you'd prefer a high-powered hover, turn the knob clockwise. This setting affects the maneuverability of your aircraft, so consider how much energy you want the vehicle to expend whenever you decide to hover.
