Hand launch it easiest I ever done Tilt back get rotas spinning wait for the whistling power up and push away No swing no tipping Clear tape whole blade on top makes really strong
-
on mine took rota bolt out added washer and a put it back then a locknut on the wrong way round to give 1mm play up and down instead of the 3mm there was and the tooth pick in blade holder to balance blades long ways place on angle mine came out on the bolt holes and hand launch is best tilt back to get blades whistling then power and push away in to wind

try using RC desk pilot its free and works your tx lead dose the light come on? with some tx you need batterys in and switched on and yes it will use up your battery so recharge before flying go to game controlers in control panel check that your connected
