Safety Instructions
OPERATING YOUR MODEL SAFELY
touch the motor immediately after use. It may be hot enough to
cause burns. Perform all necessary maintenance.
Operate the helicopter in spacious areas with no people nearby. !Warning: Do NOT operate the helicopter in the following
places and situations (or else you risk severe accidents):
• in places where children gather or people pass through
• in residential areas and parks indoors and in limited space
• in windy weather or when there is any rain, snow, fog or other
precipitation
If you do not observe these instructions you may be held reliable
for personal injury or property damage!
Always check the R/C system prior to operating your helicopter.
When the R/C system batteries get weaker, the operational range
of the R/C system decreases. Note that you may lose control of
your model when operating it under such conditions.
Keep in mind that other people around you might also be operating
a R/C model. Never use a frequency which someone else is using
at the same time. Radio signals will be mixed and you will lose
control of your model.
If the model shows irregular behavior, bring the model to a halt
immediately. Turn off all power switches and disconnect the batteries. Investigate the reason and fix the problem. Do not operate
the model again as long as the problem is not solved, as this may
lead to further trouble and unforeseen accidents.
! Warning: In order to prevent accidents and personal injury, be
sure to observe the following:
Before flying the helicopter, ensure that all screws are tightened.
A single loose screw may cause a major accident.
Replace all broken or defective parts with new ones, as damaged
parts lead to crashes. Never approach a spinning rotor. Keep at
least 10 meters/yards away from a spinning rotor blades. Do not

PRIOR TO ADJUSTING AND OPERATING YOUR MODEL,
OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING
! Warning: Operate the helicopter only outdoors and out of
people’s reach as the main rotor operates at high rpm!
! Warning: While adjusting, stand at least 10 meters/yards away
from the helicopter!
Novice R/C helicopter pilots should always seek advice from
experienced pilots to obtain hints with assembly and for pre-flight
adjustments. Note that a badly assembled or insufficiently adjusted helicopter is a safety hazard! In the beginning, novice R/C
helicopter pilots should always be assisted by an experienced
pilot and never fly alone! Throttle channel should be in motor OFF
position while powering up. When switching the R/C system ON
or OFF, always proceed in the following order:
When switching ON:
Position the throttle control stick (on transmitter) to a position
where the LOGO 10 motor does not operate.
• Turn on the transmitter.
• Turn on the receiver.
• Connect the motor battery.
• Operate your model.
When switching OFF:
• Turn off the motor (move throttle control to a position where
motor does not operate).
• Wait until the rotor head has stopped spinning.
• Disconnect the motor battery.
• Turn off receiver.
• Turn off transmitter.

When installing the motor, tighten
the socket head cap screws only
slightly, making sure that the motor
can still be moved on the motor
plate.
Do not tighten the set screw fully until
the final position of the pinion on the
motor shaft is determined. This is
done after installing the main gear.
There are two options for attaching
the pinion:
1. For securing the pinion, you may
flatten the motor shaft where the set
screw meets the motor shaft - without
making a flat surface on the motor
shaft.
2. Alternatively, you may screw the
set screw directly onto the motor
shaft. For this it is required that the
set screw has an appropriate rim for
engaging the motorshaft (all Mikado
pinions have this rim). Note, however,
that after attaching the set screw
once, the rim becomes blunt and may
not be used again.

4 Main Gear
After having attached the freeway
hub of the main gear to the rotor
shaft, pull the rotor shaft slightly
upward and simultaneously push
the main shaft collar down onto ball
bearing. Next tighten the set screws.
The rotor shaft should turn easily and
it should not have any axial play.
4.2 Adjusting Gear Backlash
The gear backlash must be adjusted (see drawings). Excess backlash can cause premature wear of
the main gear and will lead to shorter
flight times.

Should you have difficulty mounting
the 2x10 mm pin, carefully tap it with
a rubber hammer, or use a vice. The
5x10x4 bearings can also be mounted on the rotor shaft using a vice and
tapping the shaft softly with a rubber
hammer. If the tail rotor shaft shows
axial play after closing the two halves
of the tail rotor case, use one or two
of the 5x10x0.1 washers which are
included in the bag.

It is important that the tail pitch plate #3030 is aligned properly on the

misalignment, the control sleeve may
become deformed.
The mounted tail pitch plate should
be able to move on the tail rotor shaft
with little resistance.

For tightening the belt pull the tail
boom holder toward the front. Belt
tension is fixed with the M3x18 socket head cap screw for tightening the
tail boom holder to the tail boom. The
belt should be tight. When pressing
with your fingers, both sides of the
belt should not come in contact with
each other.
!
Important: Check belt tension
prior to every flight. Incorrect belt
tension can cause disturbances
for your model R/C system. Incorrect belt tension can lead to a
situation where you lose control of
the tail rotor of your helicopter.
