PACKAGE CONTENTS

DRONE DETAILS

Attention: Pay attention to the “A” or “B” printed on each propeller. The drone will not fly unless the correct propeller is installed on the correct motor shaft.

INSTALL THE PROPELLER GUARDS
Since the speed of this drone is very fast, we suggest the pilot install the propeller guards before flying. Please install the propeller guards according to the diagrams below.

INSTALL THE DRONE BATTERY
Installation: Install the battery to the buckle on the back of the drone (in the direction shown by the arrow in fig. 1)and push the battery into the charger hub (in the direction shown by the arrow in fig. 2) until you hear a click, indicating the battery is installed.

Removal: To remove the battery, first push the battery (in the direction shown by the arrow in fig. 1) out of the fuselage, then slowly pull it up (in the direction shown by the arrow in fig. 2).

TRANSMITTER DETAILS

When installing the batteries, please pay attention to the positive and negative polarity of the battery to ensure the correct installation of the batteries.

CHARGING

1. Install the battery to the buckle on the Charger Hub. (in the direction shown by the arrow in fig. 1)
2. Push the battery into the charger hub (in the direction shown by the arrow in fig. 2) until you hear a click.
3. Connect the Charger Hub to a USB adapter (5V/1A).
4. Charging time: about 60 minutes.
5. The red indicator light on the Charger Hub will turn on when the battery is charging, and will turn off when the battery is fully charged.

• Before charging, please read the instructions in the “Use of Battery” section of the “Safety Guidelines” carefully!
• Please use the original charger Hub to charge the battery.
• DO NOT charge the drone battery immediately after a flight as the temperature of the battery may be too high. Please wait until it cools down to room temperature before charging again.

FLY

• Rotating propellers can be dangerous. Do not start the motors when there are people nearby.
• Always keep your hands on the transmitter so long as the motor is still spinning.

Before Flight
Please unfold the collapsible arms before the flight.

Pairing

1. First, slide the Power Switch button left to turn on the drone. Then, place the drone on a flat and level surface with the head facing forward and the tail facing towards the pilot.
2. Then, turn on the Transmitter. One second later, one beep will be heard, and the drone’s indicator lights will start flashing and then turn solid, indicating that the drone and the transmitter have been paired successfully and automatically.

Calibrate the Gyro
After pairing, push the left joystick down to the bottom right and the right joystick down to the bottom left at the same time. A beep sound will be heard from the transmitter, and the indicator lights of the drone will blink, then turn solid, indicating that the calibration is completed. To ensure a stable flight, we suggest that the pilot calibrate the gyro after pairing the drone or after a crash. And please do NOT calibrate the gyro while flying.

Unlocking the Motors
After pairing or calibration, press the Unlocking button to unlock the motors. The propellers will start spinning.

One Key Takeoff
After unlocking, press the One Key Takeoff button, the drone will take off automatically. Or push the left joystick up slowly to take off and ascend the drone.

One Key Landing
Press the One Key Landing button during the flight, the drone will land automatically.

FUNCTIONS DETAILS

Joystick Mode

Emergency Stop
The Emergency Stop function should only be used in an emergency during the flight to avoid any damage or injury.

As shown above, push the left joystick down to the bottom right and the right joystick down to the bottom left at the same time. The motors will stop immediately. Be aware that you risk breakage of the drone if it falls a considerable distance or hits anything at a high rate of speed.

Trimmer

• F/B Sideways Drift Trim: When the drone drifts forward, press the backward trimmer button to rebalance the drone; if the drone drifts backward, press the forward trimmer button to rebalance the drone.
• L/R Sideways Drift Trim: When the drone drifts to the left, press the right trimmer button to rebalance the drone; if the drone drifts to right, press the left trimmer button to rebalance the drone. When the drone loses balance, calibration and the trim buttons don’t work, we suggest the pilot try to reset the drone’s trimmer data.
  Push both joysticks down to the bottom left simultaneously, then the drone’s lights will blink and turn solid, indicating the drone’s trimmer data is reset. (This step can only be done before the drone takes off)

High-Speed Rotation
Short press the High-Speed Rotation button during the flight, the transmitter will make a “Di” sound, which indicates that the drone enters the High-Speed Rotation function. You can press the same button again will exit the High-Speed Rotation function.

Speed Switch
This drone comes with 3 speed modes (Low/Medium/High). As shown above, press the Speed Switch button on Transmitter to switch the speed mode. The transmitter sends out a “Di” sound that indicates Low Speed, a “DiDi” sound indicates Medium Speed, and a “DiDiDi” sound indicates High Speed. (Low speed will be default mode!)

360° Flip
When you get familiar with all the drone’s functions, you can try this fantastic flip mode. When you fly the drone at least 10 ft, press in the Right Joystick on the transmitter, then push the right joystick Forward/Backward or Left/Right, and the drone will do a flip towards the corresponding direction.
This function will perform better when the battery is fully charged. If you do not operate after entering the 360° Flip, short press the right joystick again to exit the 360° Flip.

One Key Return
Please avoid using this function when the drone is near the pilot. Otherwise, it may cause injury.

After pressing the One Key Return button, the drone will start flying backward. It will fly toward the direction its tail points to when it took off. You can press the One Key Return button again to retake control of the drone and cancel the One Key Return Function.

Headless Mode
The Headless Mode is a great training tool for beginner pilots. It is also useful when the drone is too far from the pilot (which makes it difficult to tell its orientation). It keeps the drone traveling forward, backward, left, or right when you move the right joystick in those directions, regardless of which way the front of the head of the drone points to.

• Entering: Press the Headless Mode button to enter the Headless Mode function. The transmitter will beep once, and the drone’s lights will start blinking constantly.
• Exiting: Press the Headless Mode button again, the drone’s light will turn solid, which indicates the drone exits the Headless Mode.

Why is the orientation of the drone important?
In normal flying mode, the control of the drone movement can sometimes be counter-intuitive for beginners. For instance, when the drone is in the air with its head pointing to your right, if you push the right joystick forward, the drone will fly to your right, instead of flying forward. With the headless mode, the drone has a fixed “head.” In Headless Mode, the drone always remembers the side its head points to during takeoff as the front side. This means that if the drone takes off with its head pointing forward, it doesn’t matter how the drone is oriented in the air, when you push the right joystick forward, the drone will fly forward. Or, when its head is pointing to you, if you push the right joystick to the left, the drone will fly to your left.

Circle Fly
Press and hold the Circle Fly button for about 3 seconds, the drone will enter the Circle Fly mode. Exit the Circle Fly mode by long pressing the same button again or pushing the right joystick in any dircetion.

Altitude-hold Function
The drone is designed with an altitude-hold function to maintain its altitude after releasing the left joystick. (The left joystick will automatically spring back to the middle)
