How to Troubleshoot an Air Hogs Sharpshooter

Instructions

      Recharge or replace the Sharpshooter's batteries if the main rotor will not spin. Place six new AA batteries into the remote by unscrewing the back panel and placing the batteries into the remote according to the layout located inside the panel. If that does not work, charge the Sharpshooter helicopter itself. Plug one end of the power cable that came with the Sharpshooter into the remote, and plug the other end inside the Sharpshooter. Flip the remote's power button to "CHG" to charge it.

      Check to make sure that the helicopter's power is in the "ON" position if it is not responding to the remote. The helicopter's power button is located on the bottom of the toy. Flip the switch to "ON" if it is in the "OFF" position.

      Move closer to the helicopter if the remote is only partially controlling the helicopter. The helicopter is not designed to be flown more than 10 feet away from the remote.

      Turn the Sharpshooter's propellers trimmer dial if the Sharpshooter moves in a clockwise or counterclockwise motion. First, locate the trimmer dial. It is a small dial located near the top of the back of the remote. If the Sharpshooter is moving clockwise when it is in the air, turn the dial to the left until it straightens out. If the Sharpshooter is moving counterclockwise, turn the dial to the right until it straightens out.

Tips & Warnings

  • Other infrared devices and bright lights also can interfere with the Sharpshooter's controls.
