2. Warnings

Connect the Li-Po baery to USB before plugging the USB to power or your

computer. One end of the USB charger goes into any free port on your

computer or USB power bank. The other end plugs into your baery. You

may leave the baery in your copter, or remove it for external charging. While

charging, the light will be on solid red. When charging is complete, the light

will blink. The recharge me should be around 120 minutes.When the baery

runs low, the transmier will acvated a “di, di” sound alarm, and the LED lights

on the quadcopter will ﬂash. This indicates that the baery has only a short me

le, so ﬂy the quadcopter back immediately for retrieval.

8.When you are using these products, please follow all local laws and rules

regarding remote control ﬂying drones.

1. The blade guards are removable. To install each blade guard, press the square

area at the boom of the guard against the matching secon of the copter. Use

the supplied screws to aach each of the 4 guards.

2. Keep the guards installed to protect the copter and users, or remove the guards

for lighter weight and more speed and maneuverability. Note that the blades

(propellers) are easy to replace, but each blade is diﬀerent. If the incorrect

rotaon-style of blade is used, the quadcopter will not ﬂy.

*This product is equipped with a Li-Po baery. Please take note of appropriate

safety precauons when not in use.

*When the baery is not being used for a long me, remove it and put it in a safe

dry place.

The Li-Po baeries may be recycled

Please discard old baeries in a proper recycling staon.

Do not throw baeries in the regular trash. If you have quesons,

please contact your local environmental agency to collect old baeries.

*Do not expose the charged baery to high temperatures, such as ﬂames or near

electronic devices. This may cause damage or explosion.

*Make sure all baeries are connected in the proper orientaon to avoid damage

or explosion.

*Do not use the baery to impact any hard surfaces. Avoid contact with metal.

*If the baery becomes damaged, bulges, or appears to change shape, please

stop using the baery and discard it.

*When charging the baery, to avoid accident, put the power supply on the ground.

Avoid seng the charger on cloth or other ﬂammable materials because the

*Do not immerse the baery in water. The baery should be kept in a dry place.

*Do not break the baery or aempt to open the baery.

*Do not leave the baery charging without supervision.

2. Install Li-Po Baery in Quadcopter

Install To install the Li-Po baery in the quadcopter,

press the tab at the front of the baery compartment

down to access the baery compartment, and insert

the baery base-ﬁrst into the compartment so that

the cable on the baery is exposed. To remove the

Li-Po baery from the copter, press down on the tab

with one hand and grasp the baery with your other

hand to pull the baery out by its sides (never pull

the baery out by its cables).

3. Connect the Baery

*For safety, make sure the switch beneath the copter is

in the OFF posion before you electrically connect the

baery cables. Connect the baery to the quadcopter

by gently plugging the cable on the baery to the

power cable underneath the copter. Make the sure

receptacles are oriented correctly so that one

receptacle slides smoothly into the other.

*To disconnect the baery, grasp the plasc receptacles

with your ﬁngers. Never pull the cables apart by pulling

on the cables.

NOTE: The copter will not operate unless you follow

these steps in the order listed.

1. First make sure the quadcopter is OFF. Turn

the controller / receiver ON. This procedure

must be followed precisely for the controller and

copter to ﬁnd and bind with each other.

2. The controller will beep once and the light will

blink rapidly. Move the LEFT STICK to the top

and then to the boom. The controller will stop

blinking to show the throle is calibrated.

Leave the sck at the boom.

1. Install 4 AA Baeries in Controller

To assemble the Controller, install 4 1.5V AA baeries (not included) in the

controller/ transmier. You may need a small screwdriver to open and then close

the cover over the baery compartment.

FLIGHT PREPARATION

PRE-FLIGHT ADJUSTMENTS

3. Now turn quadcopter ON by ﬂipping the switch underneath the quadcopter to

the ON posion. Aer about 3 second the controller will beep “di do di”.

The lights on the copter will stop ﬂashing. This shows the quadcopter has

become bound to the controller.

4. Put the copter on level ground. Move the

RIGHT STICK on the controller in a circle.

The controller will beep “di do di” and

the copter lights will blink brieﬂy. This

calibrates the copter gyroscopes for level

ﬂying.

Power Switch

Push the LEFT STICK forward to

make the copter go up, or backward

to go down (throle). The throle

will stay where you leave it.

1. Up / Down (Throle)

rotate the direcon the copter is

facing (yaw).

Release the sck to stop rotang.

2. Rotate Direcon

3. Move Le / Right

OFF ON

Press the Mode buon on lower right of the controller to switch between Flight

Mode 1 (maximum Gyro-stability) and Mode 2 (3D expert control). The LCD

screen will indicate the current mode.

Mode 1 automacally uses the 6-Axis Gyro (3 gyroscopes and 3 accelerometers)

to its full capabilies for stable, level ﬂight. Use this mode for beginners, or to

hover for movies and snapshots.

Mode 2 lts the quadcopter more sharply (stronger pitch and roll), for faster

acceleraon. Use this mode for racing and 3D maneuvers.

The quadcopter can easily ﬂip in an enre 360° circle. The copter will quickly

stabilize and level out, but will lose some altude, so ﬁrst make sure the copter

is ﬂying high above the ground.

To ﬂip in the direcon you choose, ﬁrst press the LEFT TRIGGER. The controller

will start beeping and enter 360° Flip Mode. Push the RIGHT STICK to ﬂip in the

desired direcon (forward, backward, le, or right) and return to normal ﬂight.

When the baery runs low, the transmier will acvated a “di, di” sound alarm,

the LED lights on the quadcopter will ﬂash and the ﬂip acon will be auto turn oﬀ.

To do an instant ﬂip simply press the 360° Eversion buon on the front of the

controller, the quadcopter will ﬂip forward 360°.

Warning: Do not perform a 360° ﬂip unless the quadcopter has enough space

for safety.
