Instrucciones de funcionamiento

Automatic Take-off and Landing

The Buzzard V2 features an automatic take-off/landing function for ease of use. Press the designated button on the transmitter (usually marked with an arrow or helicopter icon) to initiate an automatic take-off. The helicopter will ascend to a stable hover height of approximately 1 to 1.2 meters. To land, press the same button again, and the helicopter will gently descend and shut off its motor upon reaching the ground.

Manual Flight Controls (Mode 2)

In Mode 2 (the default configuration), the left stick controls throttle and rudder, while the right stick controls cyclic movements.

• Joystick izquierdo arriba/abajo: Controls the helicopter's altitude (ascend/descend) by increasing o decreasing rotor speed.
• Joystick izquierdo izquierda/derecha: Controls the helicopter's rotation around its vertical axis (rudder), making it turn left or right.
• Joystick derecho arriba/abajo: Controla el movimiento hacia adelante y hacia atrás del helicóptero.
• Joystick derecho izquierda/derecha: Controls the helicopter's sideward movement (left/right).

Función de doble velocidad

The transmitter includes a Dual Rate function, which allows you to switch between two speed levels. This feature limits the servo travel, providing either a more stable and less sensitive control for beginners or a more agile and responsive control for experienced pilots. Refer to your transmitter's specific buttons for activating this function.

Calibración giroscópica

If the helicopter exhibits unwanted drifting during flight, a gyro calibration may be necessary. Power on the helicopter and transmitter, then place the helicopter on a flat, level surface. Consult the included DE/EN manual for the precise sequence of stick movements or button presses required to perform a gyro calibration.

Operación al aire libre

With its robust design and powerful motor, the Amewi Buzzard V2 is well-suited for outdoor flight, even in light wind conditions. Always ensure you have a large, clear flying area free from obstructions and people.

Mantenimiento

Reemplazo de palas del rotor

Spare main and tail rotor blades are included with your helicopter. If any blades become damaged during flight, carefully replace them using the provided screwdriver. Ensure that the new blades are installed in the correct orientation as the original ones.

Cuidado de la batería

Always use the specified LiPo battery and the original USB charging cable. To prolong battery life and ensure safety, do not overcharge or deep discharge the battery. Disconnect the battery from the charger once fully charged. Store the battery in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures when not in use.

Limpieza general

After each use, especially after outdoor flights, gently wipe the helicopter clean with a soft, dry cloth to remove any dust, dirt, or debris. Avoid using water or harsh cleaning agents, as these can damage the electronic components.
