Transmitter Charging
The Zulu charger is designed to charge both the Li—Poly batteries provided and also AA NiMH
batteries. The 8xAAA Batteries are not included




                                   tasne

CAUTION
—    The Zulu chargeris optimized to use with 1500mAH NiMH rechargeable batteries.
—    It will take up to 12 hours to fully charge.
—    Using rechargeable batteries of other capacities may cause leaks and explosion to the
     batteries and users are advice to use only the recommended capacity size.
—    Do not charge both the Li—Poly batteries together with the NiIMH batteries .


Features
The Zulu gyro stabilized coaxial R/C Helicopter comes with the following safety features:
* Low power safe (LPS) mode gradually reduces power to the main motor in the event
of a radio transmission failure.
+ Battery protection mode (BPM) to prevent the motor and servo from activation when
capacity is below 7V, to prevent a full discharge on the battery.
* Throttle safe system (TSS) that allows the motor to start only when the throttle stick is
at low power so there is no danger of connecting the battery and sending power to the
motors instantly.


Right out of the box with our very own 2.4GHz transmitter, pilots can now experiencing
the joy of having multiple Zulus flying in the air at the same time, without the worry of
interference from anothertransmitter!
The enhanced data rate provides a more accurate reading and response between the
Zulu and the pilot!

The additional on/off switch allows users to conveniently turn on and off the Zulu without
having to plug out the battery connectors constantly, which will damage the connectors
over time.

Flight Tips
To make it easier, always stand behind the helicopter, facing in the same direction. This will make it
easier for you to understand the basics of flying a helicopter.


Avoid moving the control sticks too abruptly as sudden changes in direction or speed may cause the
upper and lower blades to hit one another.


Hovering means maintaining the helicopter in a static position in mid air. Hovering is the most basic
and important skill in flying helicopter and should be well practiced.


1.   Gently push the throttle up until the skid pads are about to leave the floor.
     Increase the throttle furtherto lift it off the ground.
n




     Practice hovering around 50cm above the ground initially before flying it higher.
&




     Reduce the throttle gently to Iand the helicopter.
>




Sudden increase or decrease of the throttle may cause crashes to the helicopter and is dangerous.



Once you‘ve mastered the hovering, slowly tilt the other control sticks in the direction in which you
want. Practice one operation at a time.


When you‘re familiar, you can increase the throttle further increase flying height. If the unit starts
moving in any direction, use the trimmers to improve stability of the product.




                                                                                                   15


Flight Troubleshooting
The main blades are the parts that take the most impact during flying. It is often that flying
performance improves just by replacing the main blade. It is recommended that during blade
replacements, both blades are to be balance adjusted to ensure smooth flying.


Zulu does not move at all
1.   Check if power is switched on at the transmitter and Zulu.
2.   Check that the battery levels on transmitter and Zulu are sufficient.
3.   Check that the radio frequency on transmitter is the same as that of Zulu.
4    Checkif the throttle is pushed to the top.


Zulu flies unsteadily
1.   Check that the battery levels on transmitter and Zulu are sufficient.
2.   Check that the main blades are not damaged.
3.   Adjust the link rod of the stabilizing bar.


Zulu does not stop rotating when flying
1.   Check that the rudder has been trimmed correctly.
2.   Check that the main blades are balanced.
3.   Check if the motor and its gears are not damaged or worn.


Zulu is unable to hover freely
1.   Check that the unit is not being caught in winds.
2.   Check if the battery is property aligned in the battery cage.
3.   Check to ensure trimming has been done.


Zulu vibrates strongly
1.   Check that the main blades are able to move smoothly.
2.   Check that the main mast is not deformed.
3.   Adjust the stabilizing bar.
