The forward-/backward lever controls
the helicopter´s pitch forward and back-
ward. When shifting the lever forward
the nose of the helicopter will move
downwards and the helicopter will fly
forward. When shifting the forward-/
backward lever backward the helicopter
will move backwards and the helicopter
will fly backward.
After having made yourself familiar with
the main control functions and having
chosen an appropriate area for flying
the helicopter, you can start the first
flight.
Choosing the flight area
When being prepared for the first flight you should choose a closed room without any
persons or obstacles which is as big as possible. Due to the size and controllability of
the helicopter experienced pilotes may be able to fly the helicopter in relatively small
rooms. For your first flights we strongly recommend to choose a room with a minimum
floor space of 3 x 3 metres and 2.40 metres of height. After having trimmed your heli-
copter for flight and having made yourself familiar with the controlling and its functions
you may start flying in smaller and less open environments.

The helicopter may be flown out of
doors, but only on calm days or days
of very little wind.
Please note that in spite of calm con-
ditions near the ground, it can be
very windy a little further from the
ground.
If this advice is disregarded, the heli-
copter may suffer irreparable damage.
