The Innovator is not only the mechanics; but also the radio system, motor, speed control, battery, blades, servos and gyro. Saving you the time from choosing compatible devices. The Innovator is available in a standard pod-and-boom and as a scale MD530 fuselage, both versions are suitable for novice and experienced pilots. It is a safe and stable R/C helicopter with the excellent flying performance.

For safety, the Innovator has a unique security system which uses beeps and LED as warning signal. The security procedure must be followed before take off, otherwise the motor and gyro will not engage. This unique system puts the safety to a high standard. Important parameters are automatically monitored, such as the rotor rpm, max. current, and battery condition. Different accessories including PC Software, Simulator and other optionals are included to make the Innovator a complete programmable helicopter and try it before ever leaving your home. On-line support will be available at www.Innovator-rc.com website where you will find technical data, guidance, flying videos and the latest news.

Features of Mechanism

Main Rotor Head
The main rotor head is based on the proven Raptor design and it offers the same control feel that is loved by pilots around the world for years. It gives pilots the confidence to do more and push harder, and at the same time offers uncanny stability.
Drive System
The motor drives the tail rotor tooth belt directly to offer high efficiency and space saving.It drives the main gear through a single bull gear.
Collective Pitch Control System
Mechanical cyclic-collective pitch mixing system similar to that used on the proven Raptor series ensures precise swashplate control and eliminates the control cross coupling problem found on electronic CCPM type control systems. Smart design geometry prevent control bind at full cyclic and full collective extremes.
Battery Tray
The battery tray design permits changing battery quickly without removing the fuselage. This clever devise makes it easy and gives you more fun.
3-in-1 Servo Unit
Innovative 3 in 1 servo mechanism combines together with elevator, rudder and collective pitch servo. The servo amplifiers are all mounted on the main PCB (printed circuit board) that also houses the gyro and electronic speed controller (ESC) and receiver.The servos are of the digital type to give precise controls in a small package.
Aileron Servo Unit
Aileron servo mechanics is house together with the collective pitch control arm assembly. This increases the strength of the collective control arm and saves weight.

Features of Main Control Unit - ICS System

Gyro System
It has a high quality mini gyro sensor with heading lock algorithm and an unique feedback circuitry that drives a high pulse rate digital tail rotor control servo.
Governor
Built-in governor system not only controls the motor rpm, but also takes it down. It can monitor various data of the electronic device and execute precise rpm management
Digital Servo
Mechanical cyclic-collective pitch mixing system similar to that used on the proven Raptor series ensures precise swashplate control and eliminates the control cross coupling problem found on electronic CCPM type control systems. Smart design geometry prevent control bind at full cyclic and full collective extremes.
Program
The battery tray design permits changing battery quickly without removing the fuselage. This clever devise makes it easy and gives you more fun.
Calibration
Innovative 3 in 1 servo mechanism combines together with elevator, rudder and collective pitch servo.
The servo amplifiers are all mounted on the main PCB (printed circuit board) that also houses the gyro and electronic speed controller (ESC) and receiver.The servos are of the digital type to give precise controls in a small package.
Motor Starting
The motor starting system uses a buzzer and two-color LED display to notify the user of the motor controller condition. In addition to enhanced safety and operation effects, this prevent failure or human error that may result in an accident motor start. 4 types of buzzer beeps and LED lighting modes enable instant recognition of different detected fault conditions.
Auto Cut--Off
To prevent damaging the flight battery if the power system was not turned off after flight, the onboard smart controller will cut off the power automatically after a certain period without transmitter stick movement.
Battery Pack
A special 3S Li-Po battery is packaged inside a thin shell, light plastic hard case. Every battery pack has an exclusive ID corresponding to INNOVATOR helicopter. A valid ID is required to start the helicopter motor.
A built-in temperature sensor in the battery pack measures feeds back battery condition to the smart monitor in each pack for recording and analysis. It can record voltage, current, temperature and usage time.

Spectrum Radio Control 2.4GHz iFHSS Control System

Security ID Binding Link
A binding feature is included in the Innovator 2.4 GHz spread spectrum system to make sure the transmitter
and receiver will only recognize each other to prevent interference from other controllers.
Safety Power Cut-Off Protection Function
To prevent accidentally shutting down the transmitter, a special feature that guarantees the transmitter can
not be turned off when the heli power is not turned off. This unique feature enhances the safety.
Auto Cut-Off
In case forgetting to turn off the transmitter power after flying, the transmitter will automatically cut off the power after a certain period to save battery power.
Range Checking Function
A range checking button on the transmitter reduces transmitter radiation power for doing range check before flight. It is recommended to do this checking before flying.

Exclusive PC Software and FMS Simulator

Easy Operation
After installing special software with the PC, the large PC screen will display more easily understandable and detailed setting functions, to execute simple and detailed settings.
Flight Simulator
An flight simulator is included in the PC software and it has the innovator helicopter model in the flight simulator..
Alarm Analysis
The PC will display alarm messages and detailed status of the unit.When an alarm is displayed, it will also display the detailed contents of the alarm and countermeasures.
Data Log Analysis
The PC software can also analyze the data recorded on the onboard control device during the flight.When analyzing the registered data, it will display the name of battery in use, confirm the output voltage of the battery for respective periods, monitor the battery voltage and main rotor rpm for respective batteries,
current, temperature, and change of recorded data.
Flight Set-Point Data Customization
It can freely customize all settings in detail for conventional transmitters, such as throttle curve, pitch curve, ATV or Gyro Gain, etc. It can also use a simulation device to confirm the customized settings.
Flexibility in Growth
Newest information and software upgrade for the Innovator can be downloaded directly from the website at www.innovator-rc.com. The Innovator website contains a wealth of resources and information, including technical data, beginnerís training programs, 3D flight videos and latest news.
