TURNING THE MODEL ON
TURNING THE MODEL ON
❏ The Novus Helicopter uses a
2.4GHz system that requires a
binding process when the unit is
powered up. This process involves
connecting the flight battery to
the ESC with the transmitter
turned off. Ensure that the throttle
stick is at its lowest position and
turn the transmitter on. You will
notice that the transmitter logo
begins to flash, indicating that the
binding process is taking place.
❏ Once the logo quits flashing
you should see the servos move,
signifying that the receiver is now
bound to the transmitter. The
helicopter must be left still for 5
seconds so the gyro can perform
the initialization process. The
Novus Helicopter is now ready
for flight. Always step 15 feet
[4.5m] away from the Novus
Helicopter before operating the
throttle. Do not hold the model
while operating the throttle.
A safe start is built into the Novus Helicopter that prevents the motor from
activating unless the collective stick has been lowered to the lowest position.
If the motor won’t run and turn the main blades, please make sure the
collective stick is all the way down and leave it there for a couple of seconds.
Then try moving the stick up slowly.
