The Interceptor 400 is an aerobatic capable

helicopter, offering the performance and y-

ing abilities of 30 - sized nitro helicopter but

within a smaller package.

This is not a toy helicopter. It features a

double-dampened head, belt-driven tail

rotor and aluminium frame. This is a real

helicopter that is more than ready to y any-

where that you can nd a safe landing.

Take care when assembling the Interceptor

400. Incorrectly aligned parts will restrict

the helicopter’s abilities when performing

the extreme aerobatics it has been de-

signed for.

corrections please visit the Helivol website

warnInG

Strict pre-ight inspections are mandatory

for real aircraft. Although the R/C helicopter

is small and can be own with relative ease,

it does not differ from real aircraft in that if it

were to hit a person or object it could cause

serious damage and/or injury.

If an accident were to occur during opera-

tion the pilot would be held responsible.

Therefore it is recommended that users

possess remote control insurance. Details

on different schemes are available from

your local model shop or online.

Always be sure to inspect the helicopter

before any ight for any signs of damage or

wear. If the helicopter is own in a degrad-

ed condition it is possible for a catastrophic

failure to result.

Immediately replace any part that appears

worn or damaged.

cHoosInG your EquIpmEnt:

The INTERCEPTOR 400 is an impressive

kit helicopter but it requires additional com-

ponents to be operational. You will need

four servos, a radio transmitter and receiver,

a gyro, ESC, motor and lipo battery. We

have carried out substantial tests on various

setups and congurations.

radIo EquIpmEnt

This helicopter requires at minimum a 6CH

transmitter and receiver. It must have the

ability to setup a mechanical mix function on

a 90 degree swashplate. However we rec-

ommend that your radio transmitter also has

the capacity to programme multiple throttle

and pitch curves.

sErVos

We have tested a wide range of servos for

this model. We recommend Acer-Lab A8-

SG. They are fast analogue servos that can

be used with an Alien command. They are

also a perfect t for the frame. Please note

that digital servos can not be used in con-

junction with the Alien Command.

Gyro

You can use any high quality heading hold

gyro with this helicopter. Check compatibil-

ity with your radio equipment.

BattEry

The INTERCEPTOR 400 requires a Lipo

with a capacity of between 1500-2200mAh

and a minimum discharge of 15C for basic

hovering. This helicopter runs on 11.1v (3

Cell’s). Flight time will be between 7-12 min-

utes depending on ight conditions.

The maximum size battery the INTERCEP-

TOR 400 can hold is:

Width: 32.5mm

Height: 28.0mm

Length 104.0mm

Anything larger than this will not t in the

frame and canopy! A well tted battery

makes ying much easier.

motor

We recommend a Acer-Lab Brushless Mo-

tor. This will deliver the power needed to

get the most from the INTERCEPTOR 400

but you can use any motor within the range

2800-3500kv with a suitable pinion.

Esc

We recommend the Acer-Lab 40A. It is

fully programmable and features a double

heatsink, plug and play functionality. It also

boasts a 2 year warranty against defects in

material and workmanship. Any other qual-

ity ESC will also work.

cHarGEr

The battery used for this helicopter will

require a charger for a 3 Cell (11.1V) lipo

battery.

Measure the ybar so that is it equal on

both sides of the head. Approx 60mm on

each side.

Thread lock the screws into place then

attach the paddles ensuring that they run

parallel with the head.

BuIld GuIdE:

The INTERCEPTOR 400 is a kit helicopter

this guide covers the INT-401 ARF. In this

section we will take you through the process

to ensure that you correctly assemble your

model. This is a general guide only we rec-

ommend consulting individual component

manuals to ensure correct conguration and

installation. For a complete and thorough

guide on assembly along with videos and

the latest tips and upgrades please visit -

assEmBlInG tHE FramE & HEad

The head for the INTERCEPTOR 400

comes assembled in the ARF kit. You need

will need to install the ybar and paddles.

Remove the retaining screw and insert the

ybar.

Place the washer onto the collar of the

main gear. Insert the main shaft through

the frame and into place.

Place the main gear into the frame and

push the shaft through - the washer should

be facing up. Once in place align the holes

in the gear and shaft and t the bolt and nut

use loctite to secure.

Please check that the collar on the main

shaft is secure and correctly holds the head

assembly in place.

skIds

Assemble skids - the uprights with the wider

attachments points are located at the front.

Screw the uprights into place and align the

skid tubes.

Align the hole on the end of the boom with

the plastic pin inside the tail rotor assembly.

It will clip into place and hold rm.

Slide the tail push rod holder on to the

boom. Check that the belt is not twisted.

Insert boom into frame aligning the lip with

the groove.

Boom

You will need to feed the belt through the

boom.

We recommend taping the tail push rod to

the belt and then dropping it through the

boom before drawing through the belt after

it.

In order to easily place the belt over the

gear it is recommended that you unscrew

the bolt and screws on the boom holder. It

is then possible to push the boom further

into frame.

In order to align the belt correctly - using a

screwdriver rotate the belt 90° anti clock-

wise.

Then slip it over the gear.

Pull the boom back through and into place.

This should result in optimum belt tension.

To test the tension apply pressure onto one

side of the belt. It should not be so tight

as to not move and should not be so loose

as to touch itself. If adjustment is required

move the boom forward or back appropri-

ately. Tighten the boom holder screws once

the boom is correctly positioned.

Boom supports & taIl FIns

Insert rear aluminium rear spacer. Assemble

the boom supports and screw into place on

the spacer - on both sides. Use thread lock.

Screw the other end of the boom supports

into place on the horizontal tail n bracket.

Cut out horizontal n decal and stick to n.

Afx horizontal tail n to the bracket - use

a drop of thin CA to secure the ends of the

boom supports.

Cut out vertical tail n decal and stick

into place. Screw vertical tail n onto tail

mount.

Slide tail push rod through the holders on

the boom.

Screw on ball link and clip into place on tail.

InstallInG tHE motor

Attach a suitable pinion to motor shaft, use

a drop of thread lock on the grub screw.

Screw the motor into place on the helicop-

ters frame - use a drop of thread lock on the

mounting screws.

One mounting hole is elongated so as to

allow adjustment. The mesh of the gears

should crimp but not tear a piece of paper

when the gears are turned.

InstallInG Gyro, Esc and rX

We recommend installing your gyro and re-

ceiver inside the frame to ensure adequate

protection. Make sure they are easily ac-

cessible for adjustment and conguration.

Once your receiver is securely placed you

can route your wires carefully across the

frame of the INTERCEPTOR 400 ensur-

ing that they clear of all moving parts and

secured rmly with cable ties. The placing

and wiring is dependent on the components

you choose to use on your helicopter.

The ESC can be placed on the bottom or

side of the frame. Whichever is accessible

and within reach of the battery bay. Do not

cable tie into place - use adhesive foam.

InstallInG sErVos

Screw servos into place - don’t attach the

servo arms. Install the aileron servo rst.

Next install the pitch servo using the plastic

servo nuts to secure it into place. Bent nose

pliers can be useful at this point.

Install the elevator servo next.

The tail servo can be tricky so we recom-

mend placing the plastic servo nut onto the

servo prior to mounting as it can make it a

little easier.
