Preflight Check List - Carson BLUSTER 250 SE Manual De Instrucciones

f. Preflight Check List
The following actions should be
performed by the operator prior to every
flight.
1. Ensure that the blades have been balanced and are equally
tight on the blade grips. Note: if you hold the helicopter on
its side the blades should be tight enough that they do not
drop even if model is shaken.
2. Inspect the helicopter for any loose wiring, screws,
fasteners, connectors, prior to flying.
3. Turn on your transmitter first followed by connecting the
battery to the speed controller in the helicopter, you should
also ensure that the 3D switch is set to normal and the
throttle is set to off, i.e. all the way down.
4. Walk away from the helicopter with the antenna collapsed
to check range, you should be able to walk 50 paces away
and still have full control over the helicopter. If the distance
is significantly less check antenna wire and connections on
the receiver of the helicopter.
5. Check the CG (center of gravity) by having the main blades
at 12:00 o'clock and 6 o'clock. Lift the helicopter by the fly
bar and observe the landing skids. The skids should be level
with the ground and not leaning forward or backward. If it
leans they lean adjust the position of the battery by sliding it
backwards or forwards until the skids remain level.

6. If this is your first flight, we recommend that you use the
training frame, art. no. 50 050 8141 (not included), before
risking a flight.
The training gear will prevent the model tipping, a tip over
which can cause blade and or main shaft damage. once you
have learnt to hover your helicopter you can remove the
training gear.
7. Fully extend the antenna prior to lift-off this will ensure you
have maximum radio range.
8. Slowly apply throttle and observe the rotor disk, it should
appear perfectly flat with no noticeable tilt or lean. If the
rotor seems tilted or is leaning move the trim levers on the
transmitter until the rotor disk appears flat.
9. After lift-off and holding the helicopter in a hover it should
require very little input on the sticks to maintain a stable
hover. Should the helicopter wander forwards backwards
or side to side, adjust the trim levers on the transmitter until
the hover is stable.
Note: a well trimmed helicopter should be able to hover for
short periods with very little input from the pilot.
10. After completing your flight disconnect the power from the
battery in the helicopter first, then you may turn off your
transmitter.
Never turn off the transmitter first since it could cause you
to loose control of the helicopter and cause a crash or
serious personal injury.
