Introduction

Co-axial RC model helicopter which is particularly easy to fly.

The model of the EC145 enables you to make a start in the exciting world of radio-

controlled model helicopters, even if you have never previously flown such a model.

Its sleek looks, easily mastered flying characteristics and robust technology make our

EC145 LIQUI MOLY the ideal first step in indoor model helicopter flying.

Operating Instructions - EC145 LIQUI MOLY RTF 2.4 GHz No. LM001001

Be sure to read these Safety Notes before you assemble

your model. Always keep to the procedures and settings re-

commended in the instructions.

If you are operating a radio-controlled model aircraft, heli-

copter, car or boat for the ﬁrst time, we recommend that you

enlist an experienced modeller to help you.

Safety Notes

Radio-controlled models are not toys in the usual sense of the term.

Young persons under fourteen years should only be allowed to ope-

rate them under the supervision of an adult.

Building and operating these models requires technical expertise,

manual skills, a careful attitude and safety-conscious behaviour.

Errors, negligence and omissions in building or ﬂying these models

can result in serious personal injury and damage to property.

Since the manufacturer and vendor are not in a position to check

that your models are built and operated correctly, all we can do is

bring these hazards expressly to your attention. We deny all further

liability.

Helicopter rotors, and all moving parts generally,

constitute a constant injury hazard. It is essential to

avoid touching such parts.

Please bear in mind that motors and speed control-

lers may become hot when operating. It is important

to avoid touching these parts.

Do not stand close to the hazard area around rotating

parts when an electric motor is connected to the ﬂight

battery.

You must also take care to keep all other objects away

from moving or rotating parts.

Ensure the equipment is protected from dust, dirt and moisture

contamination. Do not subject the system to excessive heat, cold

or vibration.

Use the recommended charger only, and charge the batteries

only for the prescribed period.

Check your equipment for damage at regular intervals.

Do not re-use any devices which have been damaged in a crash

or by water, even when they have dried out again.

Crash or water damage can result in concealed defects which

may lead to failure in subsequent use.

Use only those components and accessories which we speciﬁ-

cally recommend.

Do not carry out modiﬁcations to the radio control system compo-

nents apart from those described in the instructions.

Operating Instructions - EC145 LIQUI MOLY RTF 2.4 GHz No. LM001001

Insurance

Ground-based models are usually covered by standard personal

third-party insurance policies. In order to ﬂy model aircraft you

will need to extend the cover of your existing policy, or take out

speciﬁc insurance.

Check your insurance policy and take out new cover if ne-

cessary.

Liability exclusion:

robbe Modellsport and Liqui Moly are unable to ensure that you

observe the assembly and operating instructions, or the condi-

tions and methods used for installing, operating and maintaining

the model components.

For this reason we accept no liability for loss, damage or costs

which are due to the erroneous use and operation of our pro-

ducts, or are connected with such operation in any way.

Regardless of the legal argument employed, our obligation to

pay compensation is limited to the invoice value of those robbe

products directly involved in the event in which the damage oc-

curred, unless otherwise prescribed by law. This does not apply

if the company is deemed to have unlimited liability according to

statutory regulation due to deliberate or gross negligence.

Operating Instructions - EC145 LIQUI MOLY RTF 2.4 GHz No. LM001001

Operating the model

Caution - injury hazard:

Please keep your model helicopter - including small co-

axial and single-rotor models - a safe distance away from

yourself and others. Never ﬂy over spectators, other pilots

or yourself. Always ﬂy manoeuvres facing away from other

pilots and spectators. Please note that model helicopters

generally, and aerobatic types in particular, are subject

to enormous ﬂight loads, and that interference cannot be

ruled out even when you are using the best possible radio

control system components. Operating these models re-

quires a highly responsible attitude and all possible safety

precautions for pilot and spectators.

CAUTION!

Radio-controlled model aircraft are not

toys! A high level of technical expertise

and modelling experience are required to

complete, ﬂy and maintain this model aero-

plane. Assembling and handling the model

and its technical equipment carelessly and

inaccurately can result in serious personal

injury and property damage.

Operating Instructions - EC145 LIQUI MOLY RTF 2.4 GHz No. LM001001

Description of transmitter functions

This transmitter sends the control signals to the helicopter using the 2.4 GHz frequency

band. Up to 75 different 2.4 GHz models can be in the air simultaneously without any

interference occurring between them.

Inserting the dry cells

Use a cross-point screwdriver to undo the

screw which retains the transmitter battery

compartment. Place six AA-size dry cells in

the compartment. Insert the cells the right

way round: the correct polarity is engraved

in each battery well. Finally close the batte-

ry compartment again and fit the retaining

screw; don't over-tighten the screw.

The red monitor LED indicates the state

of charge of the dry cells in the trans-

mitter. It should glow constantly while

you are flying; if it starts flashing, you

must land immediately and replace the

dry cells.

Charging the flight battery

It is absolutely essential to give the flight battery a full charge before flying the co-axial

model helicopter for the first time. There are two possible methods of recharging the

pack:

a) Charging using the USB lead (Fig. A):

The ON/OFF* slide-switch (S) must be set to "OFF" (Fig. A).

Connect the USB plug to the USB socket of a computer, or a USB plug-type charger.

The red monitor LED in the USB plug now lights up. Locate the charge plug on the USB

lead, and connect it to the charge socket on the underside of the helicopter. During the

charge process the red monitor LED in the USB plug remains off.

Continue charging the helicopter's flight battery until the monitor LED on the USB plug

lights up again.

b) Charging using the transmitter lead (Fig. B):

The ON/OFF* slide-switch (S) must be set to "OFF" (Fig. A).

Open the cover for the transmitter's internal charge lead on the right-hand side of the

transmitter. Connect the charge plug to the helicopter. Switch the transmitter on to start

the charge process. During the charge process the green LED on the transmitter glows

constantly; it goes out when the flight pack is fully charged. The charge lead can now

be disconnected from the EC145, and the transmitter can be switched off. Stow the

charge lead in the charge well again. The battery in the helicopter is now charged up,

and the model is ready to fly.

The charge process takes about forty minutes regardless of the charge method em-

ployed.
