   • Turn on the transmitter.
   • Turn on the drone, press the on/off button and make sure the drone is on. To set the drone’s headless mode forward direction, ensure the front of the drone is pointing the desired forward direction.
   • Move the left stick (throttle) fully up and after fully down. The transmitter will emit one long beep indicating successful pairing and defined forward direction.
2. Calibration:
   • When in headless mode, the forward direction may start deviating due to numerous crashes. Re-set the forward direction and after push both sticks simultaneously to the lowest left corners.
   • The drone indicator lights will start flashing and after 3 seconds will turn solid (glow) indicating successful calibration.
3. Activating/Deactivating Headless Mode:
   • After successful pairing observe the drone indicator lights and wait until they turn solid (glow). Press the right stick and hold it for 2 seconds, the transmitter will emit 3 beeps indicating headless mode is activated. Press the right stick again and hold it for 2 seconds after the transmitter will emit one long beep indicating headless mode is deactivated.
