7. PREPARATION
Basic settings of the rotor head
Before you start testing, you should rst mount the link rods and the servo levers according to the
manufacturer’s details. This allows a preliminary setting of the rotor blade pitch angles. The exact settings
of the different main rotor blade pitch values required for ying are also indicated in the model helicopter’s
instruction manual.
Turning the pitch gauge on / off
1. Remove the plastic sheet on the batteries (initial use only).
2. Press the power button (7) to turn the pitch gauge on.
3. Press the power button (7) again to turn the pitch gauge off.
Calibrating the pitch gauge
In order to optimize its performance, calibrate the pitch gauge every time you change batteries or whenever
you feel it is necessary.
1. Detach the pitch gauge from the mounting plate.
2. Turn on the pitch gauge. By default, it will be in measuring mode.
3. Press and hold the “Set” (10) button for three seconds.
4. Use the “Hold” / button (8) and “Zero” / button (9) to select “PC” shown in the prole number
eld(1).
5. Press the “Set” button (10) to conrm.
6. The display will show “--01--”, which indicates that the pitch gauge is now in calibration step 1.
7. Place the pitch gauge horizontally on the oor or any horizontal surface, as shown below:
