LiteHawk STORM - Controller Functions

  • Do not leave the battery and charger unattended while charging.
  • Do not store the battery plugged into the charger
LiteHawk STORM - Standard Mode
  • This mode is meant for beginners and experienced pilots alike. This mode will only allow you to fl y at 50% of the models capability when attempting maneuvers such as pitch, yaw and roll. If you do not understand what these terms mean, do not worry as it is covered in detail under the “Controls” section.

LiteHawk STORM - Sport Mode
  • This mode is not meant for beginners! We highly recommend that this be used only by experienced pilots. Sport Mode enables the pilot to use 100% of the models capabilities such as pitch, yaw and roll. If you do not understand what these terms mean, do not worry as it is covered in detail under the “Controls” section of the Instruction Manual.

LiteHawk STORM - Auto Flip
  • As the name suggests, pressing this button will allow the model to do a full 360 degree flip without any other input. It can be used at any time during flight, but it is highly recommended that you be at least 6 feet above the ground before attempting this maneuver.

LiteHawk STORM - Directional Flip
  • Similar to the Auto Flip, pressing this button will allow the model to do a complete 360 degree flip. However, once the button is pressed, you must then use the right stick to choose the direction of the fl ip; i.e forward, back, left, right. The button must be pressed each time before you can choose the direction of the flip.

LiteHawk STORM - Blade Direction

  • Your new STORM has 2 pairs of unique blades. One pair is “A” and one pair is “B”. You can easily tell by closely looking at the top of the rotor blade, there will be a stamp indicating “A” or “B”. All “A” blades spin in a clockwise direction while all “B” blades spin in a counter clockwise direction.

 LiteHawk STORM - Syncing

  • 1. Plug the battery into the model and place it down ON A FLAT, LEVEL SURFACE.
  • 2. Within 2-5 seconds, turn the remote ON and immediately move the left stick up and down.
  • 3. Once the Red LED has turned solid, the remote and model are now communicating.
 LiteHawk STORM - First Flight
  • If you've never fl own then the first thing you need to learn is throttle control. Slowly and carefully ramp up the throttle until the model starts to lift off , then as soon as the model leaves the ground, ease off the throttle gently and let it settle back down. If the hardware is working correctly the quad should remain fairly level, and shouldn't drift too far. Repeat this process, lift off gently and then land again, until you have a good feel for how much throttle is required to keep the model in the air. Try keeping it in the air a little longer - don’t worry about pitch, yaw and roll - all we care about right now is that the model stays at a steady height. Don’t go more than a meter off the ground. If the quad drifts too far, ease off the throttle and land it.
  • Once you are able to hold the quad at a steady height, try moving the right stick gently to start controlling the model’s direction. If the STORM moves left, move the stick slightly to the right. If it starts moving towards you, push the stick up slightly. Get the feel for how the STORM moves around while using the right stick. Remember, if at any point the STORM moves out of position, especially if it starts coming towards you, cut the throttle immediately. Repeat this process until you are comfortable with how the right stick controls the STORM.

 LiteHawk STORM - Post Flight

  • Remove the battery from the model and allow it to cool for 10-15 minutes.
  • Recharge the battery for at least 20 minutes if storing for more than 24 hours.
  • Check the model for damage or any possible issue that may affect your next flight.
