How to Troubleshoot a Megatech Housefly 2

Megatech develops radio controlled boats, airplanes, dragsters, helicopters and more in three series: IQ, Big Fun and High Performance. Your Megatech Housefly 2 helicopter falls under the High Performance series, which features the latest advanced technology. After assembling your Housefly 2, you will need to learn the basics on how to fly it and land, so you can develop flight maneuvers. Troubleshooting your Megatech Housefly 2 can help you learn more about your helicopter and allow you to resume your flying enjoyment more quickly.

Things You'll Need

8 AA alkaline batteries

Instructions

- 1
  Slide the power switch to the "On" position if you do not have power to the radio control transmitter. Also, make certain you installed the batteries correctly. You may need to replace the old batteries with fresh ones.
- 2
  Tighten the upper and lower blades of your Housefly 2 if you see the helicopter wobbling while hovering. The wobble may come from loose blades. Ensure the blades can still move freely in the blade holders after tightening.
- 3
  Check to see if you have the AC adapter plugged in firmly into the charging unit if you do not see a flashing red light while charging the batteries.
- 4
  Recharge the battery when you notice you cannot make the helicopter turn left or right. The battery may be losing power. Also, wait and allow the helicopter to steady itself and regain balance when it cannot make turns.
- 5
  Slide the power switch to the "On" position when you see you do not have control of your helicopter--you may have forgotten to turn on the radio control transmitter. Also, try fully extending the antenna on your transmitter or move to a different location. There may be electrical interferences in the area.

  Recharge your Housefly 2 battery if you cannot get the helicopter to fly high enough.
