SAFETY NOTES

2.1 Important Notes
This RC quadcopter is not a toy
Any improper use of this product will result in serious injury. Be aware of your personal safety, the safety of others and your surrounding environment We recommend beginners learn to fly with more experienced pilots before attempting to fly the X4 for the first time.
2.2 Caution
The X4 quadcopter has parts that move at high speed, which poses a certain degree of danger. Choose a wide open space without obstacles. Do not operate the X4 near buildings, crowds of people, high voltage cables, or trees to ensure the safety of yourself, others, and your model. Improper operation may cause damage to people and property. 2.3 LiPo Battery Safety Notes
The X4 is powered by a Lithium-Polymer (LiPo) battery.
If you do not plan to fly the X4 for a week or more, store the battery at approximately 50% charged to
maintain battery performance and battery life.

SAFETY ADVISORY NOTICE
Lithium-Polymer (LiPo) Batteries
LiPo batteries are different from conventional batteries in that their chemical contents are encased in relatively lightweight foil packaging. This has the advantage of significantly reducing their weight but it does make them more susceptible to damage if roughly or inappropriately handled. As with all batteries, there is a risk of fire or explosion if safety practices are ignored:
Charge and store LiPo batteries in a location where a battery fire or explosion (including smoke hazard) will not endanger life or property.
Keep LiPo batteries away from children and animals.
Never charge the LiPo battery that has ballooned or swelled.
Never charge the LiPo battery that has been punctured or damaged.
After a crash, inspect the battery pack for signs of damage. Discard in accordance with your country’s recycling laws.
Never charge the LiPo battery in a moving vehicle.
Never overcharge the LiPo battery.
Never leave the LiPo battery unattended during recharging.
Do not charge LiPo batteries near flammable materials or liquids.
Ensure that charging leads are connected correctly. Reverse polarity charging can lead to battery damage or a fire or explosion.
Have a suitable fire extinguisher (electrical type) OR a large bucket of dry sand near the charging area. Do not try to extinguish electrical (LiPo) battery fires with water.
Reduce risks from fire/explosion by storing and charging Li Po batteries inside a suitable container.
Protect your LiPo battery from accidental damage during storage and transportation. (Do not put battery packs in pockets or bags where they can short circuit or can come into contact with sharp or metallic objects.).
If your LiPo battery is subjected to a shock (such as a crash), place it in a metal container and observe for signs of swelling or heating for at least 30 minutes.
** Do not attempt to disassemble or modify or repair the LiPo battery.
2.4 Prevent Moisture
The X4 contains many precision electrical components. Store the battery and the X4 in a dry area at room temperature. Exposure to water or moisture may cause malfunction resulting in loss of responsiveness, or a crash.
2.5 Proper Operation
For safety, only use the included HUBSAN spare parts for replacement
2.6 Always Be Aware of the Rotating Blades
When in operation, the rotor blades will be spinning at high speed. The blades are capable of inflicting serious injury or damage to property. Be careful to keep your body and loose clothing away from the blades. Never take your eyes off the X4 or leave it unattended while it is turned on. Stop operating immediately if the X4 flies out of your view. Once landed, immediately turn off the X4 and transmitter.
2.7 Avoid Flying Alone
Beginners should avoid flying alone when learning flight skills. We recommend flying with an experienced pilot nearby in case you need help.
13. The video is not being saved to the SD card.
Always stop the video recording function then power off the battery, after that, you can take out the SD card.
Always power off the quadcopter before inserting or removing the SD card. This allows the memory to be properly saved to the SD card.
14. The transmitter will not power on**
Check the battery connection.
If the transmitter battery power is low, you will need to replace it with new AA batteries.

SAFETY CHECKS BEFORE FL YING

CAREFULLY INSPECT THE XA BEFORE EVERY FLIGHT

• Before operating, check that the batteries of the transmitter and X4 are charged for the flight.
• Before turning on the transmitter, check that the throttle stick is pulled completely backward (down position)
• Carefully check rotor blades and rotor holders. Broken parts will pose a risk of injury and hazard.
• Check the battery and power plug are securely fastened. Severe vibration during flight may detach the plug and result in loss of control.
• When turning on the unit, always turn on the transmitter first and then turn on the X4. To power off, always turn off the X4 first and then the transmitter. The improper procedure may cause loss of control of the quadcopter.

CHARGING THE LiPo BATTERY

4.1 3.7V 520mAh LiPo Battery
Method: Connect the X4 USB slot with the USB charger, then connect the USB charger to a computer or another USB connector, such as a smartphone charger. The LED  lights up while charging and turns off when charging is complete. The voltage of the USB is +5±0.5V. The charging time is around 80mins, and the flying time is around 7mins.

1. Take out the battery with the battery compartment when you store it.
2. Always power off the quadcopter when you charge the battery.

4.2 Safety Advisory Notice
Always partially charge your LiPo battery before storage. LiPo batteries retain power over a reasonable period. It is not normally necessary to recharge stored LiPo batteries unless stored for periods longer than 3-6 months. If your LiPo battery has been over-discharged, it will not be possible to recharge it again.
Li Po Battery Disposal & Recycling
Lithium-Polymer(LiPo) batteries must not be placed in household trash. Please contact your environmental or waste agency or the supplier of your model for local regulations and the location of your nearest LiPo battery recycling center.

Low Battery Alarm. The two red LEDs will blink at the same time and the X4 will descend and land automatically to Smeters or lower from the takeoff point when the X4 battery is low.
First Pilot View(FPV) Instructions:
For those just starting FPV with the Hubsan H107D please start S-1-0-W-L-Y and use the following guidance:

1. Learn how to fly the X4 and maintain control both indoors and outdoors at an altitude no higher than 10 feet before you advance to FPV flight and higher altitudes. A large part of being successful in FPV is training your fingers and brain to know how the model will respond to your inputs so you can predetermine your stick movements. It is very different to look at an LCD or goggles and determine hover, altitude, and speed. You will need to visually correlate and remember how the model reacts with stick movements and also the differences between those movements when in no wind and windy conditions.
2. When flying indoors or outdoors allow for plenty of free space with no couches, tables, trees buildings, or other objects that you might fly into. A large area with soft grass is a perfect outdoor area to learn to fly. An asphalt parking lot is a terrible place to learn to fly. It is recommended that you use a safety spotter for your FPV flights!
3. First learn to master hovering, then master flying a square or rectangular pattern by recognizing features that are picked out before you begin your FPV flight.

7.2 Headless Mode
Headless mode means the X4 will default to any direction as its head is in front of the transmitter. The blue lights on the X4 will blink and “HEADLESS ON” shows on the LCD screen when the X4 is in headless mode.
Press the Throttle stick briefly to switch on/ off headless mode.
Press the Throttle stick to enter headless Mode, indicated by two “beeps”.
Press the Throttle stick again to exit headless Mode, indicated by one “beep
7.3 Transmitter Sticks And X4 Control Responses
CAUTION. To avoid loss of control, always move the transmitter sticks slowly. Be aware that control inputs will reduce available lifts. Wait a few seconds for the X4 to recover the height.
The throttle increases/decreases the flying height of your quadcopter.
This quadcopter can hold the altitude in the air.
Method: Push the throttle stick up and the quadcopter will rise; Release the stick to the central position, and the quadcopter will hover automatically and hold its altitude; Pull the stick down and the quadcopter will fall.
Rudder rotates your quadcopter’s fuselage left or right.
The elevator moves your quadcopter forward and backward.
Aileron moves your quadcopter left and right.
