Control Tests

CAUTION: You must complete the Tail Rotor and Cyclic tests prior to every fl ight. Failure to complete the tests and ensuring the sensor corrects in the proper
direction can cause the helicopter to crash, resulting in property damage and injury.
Tail Rotor
1. Power on the transmitter.
2. Turn TH HOLD ON and put transmitter in normal mode.
3. Connect the fl ight battery to the ESC.
NOTICE: Do not allow the helicopter to move until the Status LED is solid orange. The AR636A
will not operate correctly if the helicopter moves before the Status LED is solid orange.
Cyclic
When using a fl ybarless fl ight controller, you are controlling rotational rates while the
AR636A controls the servos. You are not directly controlling the servos with the transmitter.
It is normal for the swashplate to slowly move back to its original position
after a stick input and for the servos to not move at the same speed as your
control sticks.
Cyclic and Collective Control Test
Ensure the throttle hold is ON when performing the direction control tests.
Test the controls prior to each fl ight to ensure the servos, linkages and parts
operate correctly. If the controls do not react as shown in the illustrations below,
