Only after you have successfully completed the
calibration, mount the propellers again.

The Navigator 250 is calibrated in a 3-step procedure:
Channel learning
Gyro
Compass
16.1 Preparation
D
Make sure the flight battery is fully charged.
1. Remove the propellers.
2. Transmitter: Set travel of all channels to ‘+ –100 %’ and trims to ‘0’.
3. Transmitter: Make sure that the throttle stick is in its mid-position (the sticks are spring
loaded and are centered by default).
4. Transmitter: Set all switches and knobs to their default positions (switches: position 1,

When you calibrate the Navigator 250 for the first time you must not skip any steps.
However, at a later point in time this feature may become useful when you want to calibrate
only one item (e.g. compass) but not the others.
