Attention

1. Important Instructions
   (1) This product is not a toy. It is a precision piece of equipment with integrated mechanical, electronic, air dynamics, and radio frequency technologies. To avoid  accidents, the operator must read these instructions carefully. Obey safety precautions when operating. If operated incorrectly, serious physical injury and/or property  loss may occur.
   (2) This product is only suitable for operators with previous hobby flying experience, age 14 and up.
   (3) Only fly in a safe environment that is legal for remote control flying.
   (4) We do not take any responsibility for your operation and control of this device and your related safety responsibilities.

2. Safety Instructions
   (1) Operate far away from obstacles and crowds.
   This drone has uncertain flying speeds and creates conditions which present potential danger. Fly away from people and animals, high buildings, high voltage wiring, and  so on. Avoid bad weather conditions, wind, rain, thunder, and other such conditions to ensure a safe and fun flying environment.
   (2) Avoid high temperatures.
   This drone is made of metal, carbon fiber, plastic, electronic components, and other materials. Keep away from any heat source and avoid use in high temperature  environments such as hot sunny days to avoid deformation and broken parts resulting from heat.

3. Flight Environment
   The inside of this drone contains precision electric and mechanical parts. Avoid water and wet environments. Water can enter the aircraft and result in component  breakdowns, which may cause accidents.

4. Pre-flight precautions:
   It is recommended that the flying area is at least an area of 25ft x 25ft x 15ft.
   Be sure that the transmitter and drone batteries are fully charged.
   Be sure that the throttle is at its lowest position to avoid premature takeoff.
   Before flying, first turn on the drone, and then turn on the transmitter. Incorrect operation may result
   in failure, and may influence other devices in the area.
   Ensure that all plugs and wires are secure and in place. Rocking during flight may loosen them over time.

Drone Starting Operations

1. Connect a battery pack to one drone first, then place it on a flat, level surface to ensure that gyro stabilization is complete. The LED lights should start flashing.
2. Turn on the first transmitter. The lights will flash to indicate syncing.
3. Push up on the left joystick, then quickly down all the way to pair the transmitter with the drone.
4. After successful pairing, the lights will stay on, and you may start operation and flight control.
5. Repeat steps 1-4 for the opponent drone if battling.

Recharging the Drone

1. Open the drone’s rear hatch to expose the battery pack’s male connector; disconnect it from the drone, and connect the charging cable to a USB port.
2. Connect the male battery pack connector to the female connector on the charging cable. The red LED light will turn on.
3. Charging is complete when the red LED light turns off. Unplug after charging. Do not leave the battery pack charging overnight.

Special Actions

FLIP STUNT MODE
When in flight, the stunt button can be pressed to activate this mode. The transmitter will beep continuously while in this mode. In this mode, the right joystick will move the  drone in any direction, and turn it around 360 degrees in the direction of the roll. After the stunt, normal operational control will automatically resume.
EASY MODE
Simplifies drone flight use by limiting command instructions based on your direction. Use Easy Mode when you are having difficulty telling which direction the drone is  pointing due to distance. Press and hold the Flip Stunt Button for 3 seconds to activate Easy Mode. Press and hold for 3 seconds again to deactivate it.
SPEED MODES
This drone has 3 speed modes. Pressing in on the right control stick on the transmitter will shift speeds. The default speed is low and is suitable for beginners. Pressing in on  the right control stick will switch to medium speed, indicated by two beeps. Pressing in on the right control stick again will switch to high speed mode, indicated by three  beeps. CAUTION: This speed is only for experienced operators. The speeds will cycle in this order every time the right control stick is pressed in, with a single beep  indicating the drone is at low speed.
RETURN ASSIST
Return assist does not use GPS to fly back to the pilot. This function only remembers the general direction the drone took off from and attempts to fly back to the takeoff point.
When in flight, the drone needs to be in front of the takeoff point. Return Assist will not work if the button is pressed when the drone is to the side of or behind the original  take off point. Press and hold the FIRE LASER button for 3 seconds while the drone is in flight, and the drone will start to fly in the general direction of the take off point.  You will still need to guide the drone using the right joystick’s left and right movement to avoid any obstacles and land the drone with the throttle stick.
The drone does not remember where to land. The pilot will need to use the throttle stick to land the drone when using Return Assist. The drone will continue to fly in the  general direction of the take off point, and will fly past it if the pilot does not land the drone.

Flying Control

Moving the left directional stick up and down will move the drone up/down.

Moving the left direction stick left and right will turn the drone left/right.

Moving the right directional stick up and down will move the drone forward/backward.
Moving the right directional stick to the left and right will move the drone left/right.

Adjusting the Trim
When drone moves with no transmitter input, adjust the trim controls until it reaches a stable hover.

On the Right Directional Pad:
If drone drifts left, tap the Right Directional Trim button until drifting stops. If drone drifts right, tap the Left Directional Trim button until drifting stops.

On the Left Directional Pad:
If drone spins left, tap the Right Directional Trim button until spinning stops. If drone spins right, tap the Left Directional Trim button until spinning stops.

Drone Laser Battle

Laser Battle Drones are ready for aerial laser battles whenever you are! Both drones come equipped with IR laser emitters to fire at the other drone while flying. The IR receivers are located underneath the drones. This is where you want to aim to take down your opponent’s drone. Each drone can receive 4 hits before they are forced to land to recover for the next battle. The lasers range is 10 feet and shoots in a 45 degree radius.
The drones fly using 2.4GHz radio control, and are suitable for indoor or outdoor flight. The laser uses infrared light and may be suitable only for indoor battles if sunlight that is too bright causes interference.
Use the fire button to hit your opponents drone while flying through the air, and dodge and clip to avoid having your drone hit by laser fire. Each time a drone is hit, it will perform an automated action to acknowledge the hit.

The first time your drone is hit, the drone will turn right half a circle, then resume normal operation.
The second time it is hit, the drone will turn left half a circle, and then resume normal operation.
The third time your drone is hit, it will perform a single flip, and then resume normal operation.
The fourth time your drone is hit, the battle is over. The Losing drone will turn right half a circle, then descend and land.
