Safety Precautions
1. Please do not fly in the rain! Rain or moisture may cause flig h t instability or even loss of control. Neve r fly i f there is lightning.
It is recommended to fly in conditions with good weather (No rain, fog, lightnin g, wi n d ).
2. When flying, you must strictly abide by local laws and regulations and fly safely! Do not fly i n no-fly areas such as airports,
military bases, etc.
3. Please fly i n an open field away from crowds and buildings.
4. Do not pe rform any operation under the condition of d ri nking, fatigue or other p oor mental state. Please operate in strict
accordance wi th th e product manual.
5. Please be cautious when flying near electromagnetic i nterference sources, including but not limited to: high-voltage power
lines, h i gh-voltage transmission stations, mobile p hone base stations and TV broadcast signal towers. When flying in th e
above-mentioned places, the wireless transmission performance of the remote control may be affected by in terference. If
there is too much interference, the signal transmission of the remote control and the receiver may be interrupted, resulting in
a crash.

Installation
Make sure the arrow on Byme-DB p oints to the aircraft head. Use 3M glue to flatly attach Byme-DB to the fuselage. It is
recommended to install it near the center of gravity of the aircraft. Byme-DB comes with a receiver connect cable which is u se d
to connect the receiver to Byme-DB. When connecting the servo cable and ESC cable to Byme-DB, p lease check whether the
servo cable and ES C cable match the sockets/head of Byme-DB. If they do not match, the user needs to modify the ser vo cable
and ESC cable, and then connect the cables to Byme-DB.

Flight Modes Setup
Flight modes can be set channel 5 (CH5) (a 3 way switch) i n the transmitter with 3 modes: Stabilize Mode , Gyro Mode and
Manual Mode. Take RadioLink T8FB/T8S transmitters as examples:
Note: Wh en using othe r brand transmitters, please re fer to the following picture to switch the flight modes. The value range of
channel 5 (CH5) corresponding to th e flight mode i s as shown below:
Motor Safety Lock
The motor can be locked/unlocked by Channel 7 (CH7) in the transmitter.
When the motor is locked, the motor will not rotate even if the throttle stick is in the highest position. Please put the throttle to
the lowest position, and toggle the switch of channel 7 (CH7 ) to unlock the motor. The motor emits two long beeps means the
unlocking is successful. When the motor is locked, the gyro of Byme-DB i s automatically turned off; When the motor i s
unlocked, the gyro of Byme-DB is automatically turne d on.

6
Note:
If the motor only beeps once wh e n toggle the switch of channel 7 (CH7) to the un lock position, the unlocking fails. Please
follow the methods below to troubleshoot it.
1. Check whether the throttle is at the lowest position. If not, please push the throttle to the lowest position until the motor
emits a second long beep, which means th e unlocking is successful.
2. Since the PWM value width of each transmitter may be d i fferent, when u si n g other transmitters except RadioLink T8FB/T8S,
if the unlocking still fails even thou gh the throttle is at the lowest position , you need to in crease the throttle travel in the
transmitter. You can toggle th e switch of ch anne l 7 (CH7) to the motor unlocking position, and then adjust the throttle
travel from 100 to 101, 10 2, 103... until you hear the second long bee p from the motor, wh i ch means the un locking is
successful. During the p rocess of adjusting the throttle travel, be sure to stabilize the fuselage to avoid i njuri es caused by
blade rotation.
Take RadioLink T8FB/T8S transmitters as examples:
Note: When using other brand transmitters, please refer to the following picture to locked/unlock th e motor. The value range
of channel 7 (CH7) is as shown below:

Transmitter Setup
1. Do not set any mixing in the transmitter when Byme-DB is mounted on the aircraft. Because there is already the mixing in
Byme-DB. The mix control will automatically take effects according to the flight mode of the aircraft. If th e mixing function
is set in the transmitter, there will be conflicts of mixing and affect the flight .
2. If RadioLink transmitter is used, set transmitter phase:
Channel 3 ( CH3) - Throttle: Reversed
Other channels: Normal
Note: When u si ng a non-RadioLink transmitter, there is no need to set the transmitter phase.
Power-on and Gyro Self-test
Each time the flight controller i s powered on, th e gyro of the flight controller will p e rform self-test. The gyro self-test can only
be complete when the aircraft is stationary. It is recommended to install the battery first, th e n power up the aircraft and keep
the aircraft in a stationary state. After the aircraft is powered on, the green indicator light on ch anne l 3 wi ll be always on. When
the gyro self-test passes, the control surfaces of the aircraft will shake sligh tly, and the green indicator lights of other channels
such as channe l 1 or ch ann e l 2 will also turn solid.
Note:
1. Du e to d ifferences in aircraft, transmitters and other equipment, it is p ossible that the green indicators of other chan nels
(such as channe l 1 and channel 2) wi ll not be on after the gyro self-test of Byme-DB is complete. Please judge whether the
self-test is complete by checking whether the control surfaces of the aircraft shake slightly.
2. Push the throttle stick of the transmitter to the lowest p osition first, and then power on the aircraft. If the throttle stick is
pushed to the hi ghest position and then power on th e aircraft, the ESC will e nter the calibration mode.
Attitude Calibration
Flight controller Byme-DB needs to calibrate the attitudes/level to ensure the balance status.
The aircraft can be placed flat on the ground when performing attitude calibration. It is advised to lift the model head with a
certain angle(20 degree is advised) for beginner to en sure smooth flight and attitude calibration will be recorded by flight
controller once the it is complete with success.
Push the left stick (left and down) and the right stick (right and down) as below and hold more than 3 seconds. The green LED
flashes once mean the calibration completed.

8
Note: When using a non-RadioLink transmitter, if the attitude calibration is unsuccessful when pushing the left stick (left and
down) and the right stick (right and down), please change th e direction of the channel in the transmitter. Make sure whe n
pushing the joystick as above, th e value range of channel 1 to chann el 4 is:
CH1 2000 µ s, CH2 20 00 µs, CH3 1000 µs, CH4 10 00 µ s
Take an open source transmitter as example. Th e ser vo display of chann el 1 to channel 4 wh en calibrating the attitude
successfully is as shown below:
CH1 2000 µ s (opentx +100), CH 2 2000 µs (opentx +100)
CH3 1000 µ s (opentx -100), CH4 1000 µs (opentx -100)

Servo Phase
Servo Phase Test
Please complete the attitude calibration first. After the attitude calibration is completed, you can test the servo phase.
Otherwise, the control su rface may swing abnormally.
Switch to Manual mode. Check whether the movement of the joysticks matches that of th e corresponding control surface.
Take Mode 2 for transmitter as an example.
Servo Phase Adjustment
When th e movement direction of the ailerons is inconsistent with the j oystick movement, please adjust the servo phase by
pressing the buttons on the front of the Byme-DB.
