Preparing the Remote control

Assembling Quadcopter Battery

AEE-DRONES-AP11-Drone-Camera-Quadcopter-fig-7

  1. Load battery into battery compartment in the correct direction.
    • Push the battery into the battery compartment in the right direction
  2. Ensure that the battery has been completely pushed in. After the battery is completely pushed in, a“click” sound will be heard, indicating that the battery has been fastened. If the battery lock is not tightly locked, poor contact of power supply may be caused, which will affect the flight safety or result in take-off failure.

Important

  • Pressing the Battery Level Check button to check the battery level. Please fully charge the battery if it is less than two bars showed on the Segment Display.

Power on Quadcopter

  • Slide the power switch to “ON” to power on Quadcopter.

Note

  • The general indicator instructions are showed in the following table. Please refer to the user manual for more details.

Note

  • The Remote Control will be started fully when the Photo Shooting & Video Recording Indicator turns on.

Compass Calibration

Compass calibration is required before first time use otherwise the system may not work properly, affecting flight safety. The compass is sensitive to electromagnetic interference from other electronic devices, which can cause abnormal compass data leading to poor flight performance or even flight failure. Regular calibration is required for optimum performance.

  • Attention: Do not calibrate the compass in environments with a strong magnetic field (such as near power lines or radio towers); Do not carry ferromagnetic materials when calibrating the compass,such as keys and cell phones etc.)

Note

  • Calibration can begin until the Remote control and Quadcopter start up completely(powered on for about 20 seconds).
