ABOUT TRAINING, CRASHES & SPARE PARTS
The Mini Twister Scale has been designed to be strong
and very easy to repair, however, the helicopter is not
invulnerable and most people will tip their helicopter over or
break parts during their flying career. This is quite normal.
All parts are available as spares from your supplier. Study
the exploded view of the helicopter carefully to understand
the relationship between parts and how to replace them if
necessary.
CRASH DAMAGE IS NOT
COVERED BY WARRANTY.

The Micro Twister Pro2.4G comes bound and test flown from the factory. It may become necessary to REBIND the heli to the transmitter if
you change transmitters or want to fly a different Micro Twister Pro2.4G helicopter on your transmitter or for some reason the helicopter or
transmitter has dropped the BIND.
TO REBIND:
• Turn the heli and transmitter off.
• Hold down the BIND button on the right hand side of the transmitter and turn the transmitter on.
• While continuing to hold the BIND button, turn on the helicopter. Count to 5 and release the BIND button on the transmitter.
• While holding the heli by the skids, slowly move the throttle up and down through its full range, 1-5 times, or until the heli blades start
spinning. If the blades do not turn, repeat the process.
• Once the blades respond to the throttle, the BIND process is complete and you are ready to start flying.
