When tightening the nut (G), take care
not to over tighten it as it may cause damage
to the rotor (F).
Once the battery is connected to the
ESC, take care not to touch them or the EDF
as this might cause accidental injury. When
testing the EDF, use a proper test stand.

Dual Rates EN
According to our test results, the following rates proved to be a good starting point. Low rates are good for initial flights or
less experienced pilots. High Rates will be more sensitive to control inputs After initial flights, adjust the rates to suit your
own style.
