Introduction of transmitter
Remote control Installing the battery

Open the back cover at the back of the transmitter. Load 4PCS “M”alkaline batteries correctly into the battery compartment as per the correct polarity shown on the battery compartment.

Controller modes & instructions

With the purpose of satisfying operational habits of different consumers, this remote control sets up two kind of different operation modes: Mode 1 and Mode 2. When starting, press on the Key A and switch Mode 1 and Mode 2, while turning on remote control’s power supply simultaneously.

Illustration on controlling the quad copter (Mode 1, defaulted mode when starting)

Ready to fly your quadcopter

1. First of all, press the ON/OFF power switch.
2. Turn on the quadcopter button,and place the quadcopter on horizontal position
3. Push the throttle lever to the highest position andthen pull it back to the lowest position.this time] there will be one clear sound sending out from the transmitter,this shows that the quadcopter has entered into the pre-fly state.

CAUTIONS :

1. When the indicator of the transmitter appears eternal bright,however, the indicator of the helicopter appears slow flashing, this means that decoding is not successful. This time please disconnect the power both of the quad copter and transmitter, then repeat the pre-flying steps.
2. If the quadcopter is tilting to one side abruptly or spinning while hovering, please switch off the power both of the quad copter and transmitter and then repeat the pre-flying steps.
3. When the indicator of the quad copter keeps flashing slowly, it means that the quad copter has entered into the low voltage protection state. This time you need to charge the quadcopter.

Function introduction

1. Low-voltage protection:
   When four indicator lights on the bottom of aircraft start to flicker, it means electric quantity of the aircraft is insufficient. Please control the aircraft to make a return voyage.

2. Low-voltage protection:
   When four indicator lights on the bottom of aircraft start to flicker, it means electric quantity of the aircraft is insufficient. Please control the aircraft to make a return voyage.

3. Horizontal correcting function:
   Place the quadcopter on a horizontal postion, then push transmitter both left and right lever to lowest right conner for about 2-3 second , indicator on the quadcopter changed from= normal lights up to quickly flashing ;After 2-3 second ,the indicator changed to normal lights, it means the quadcopter restarted /reset successfully.

4. 3D eversion:
   When you are familiar with the basic operation, you can do some awesome& exciting tricks and stunts! First of all,fly the aircraft to a height of more than 3 meters, press the 3D Eversion switch on the rear right side of the transmitter, then push the right rudder(in any direction) to make 360 degree flip.
   Tips:3D eversion goes better when battery power is enough.

5. Throwing flight instructions: Using 6 axis gyroscope, quadcopter bring you more fun. Throw out the quad copter or push up throttle lever when it rolling, the quad-copter could hover smoothly in the sky.

6. Speed gear’s switch function:
   Low Speed: Press the High/Low speed switch for one time, the buzz will send out one sound.
   High Speed: Please press High/Low speed switch  once again, the buzz will send out two sounds.

7. Mode switch function:
   Keep pressing the button A,then switch on power of the transmitter,you can select Mode 1 or Mode 2.

8. Resetting function:
   Keep pressing the button B,then switch on the power of the transmitter.Enter into the Trimming & Resetting Mode(lt is highly suggested that the freshman should reset the trimmer first before starting the first flight.)

9. Headless function

10.  Forward definition

11. Turn on power switch of remote control.

12.  After aircraft connects with power supply, place the switch in “ON” position, adjust the direction pointed by aircraft’s handpiece and regard it as the dead ahead in headless situation.

13. Push the accelerator’s push rod of remote control to the highest point and pull back to the lowest point. When remote control pops, it indicates that frequency modulation and forward definition have already finished.

14. 2. Switch to headless function and general function

15. After frequency modulation, the aircraft defaults to general pattern. The indicator light on aircraft is long bright state. After pressing down headless function switch on the top left of master remote controller for 2 seconds, remote control will give out “DDD … “, it means that it enters into headless state. After pressing for 2 seconds and hearing long “D”, it means that it exits headless state.(ln headless mode, four indicators on the aircraft flicker slowly for once within four seconds)

16. In headless state, the operator has no need to recognize the position of aircraft’s headpiece, and he just needs to control the aircraft in accordance with the direction of remote control’s operating rod.

17. Correcting forward direction

18. After aircraft crashes in headless state, if there is deviation in head direction, it just needs to adjust the aircraft’s direction again, pull remote control’s accelerator and operating rod to bottom left simultaneously. When indicator light on the aircraft flickers for slow three seconds, it means that correction is done.

Battery charging

Battery charging
Take out the USB charging wire, connect one end to the quad copter, then insert the USB port of the USB charging wire to the USB port of the computer (or the USB port of the power adapter) to charge the battery.During the time of charging, the red indicator of the USB will be OFF.
When it is fully charged, the red indicator will be ON.

Caution

1. When using the computer for charging, please remember to pull out the charging line before shutting down the computer.
2.  Please pay attention to aim correctly to the correct polarity when connecting the USB wire with the battery.Please make sure the polarityshould not be upside down.

Charging time: about 60 minutes ; Flying time: about 4 minutes!

BATTERY REPAIR & MAINTENANCE

1. Battery should be put in the dried or ventilated place with environment temperature about 18-25 C.
2. In order to enhance the using life of the battery, please avoid repeat charging or excessive discharging.
3. When the battery needs to be stored for a long time, please charge the battery first. That is to say, charge the battery for about 50-60% of the volume and then well store it.
4. If you do not use it for more than 1 months, it’s highly recommended that you need to check the battery voltage every month so as to make sure the voltage no less than 3V. Otherwise please do by following No. (3) mentioned.

CAUTIONS WHEN CHARGING

1. When charging,please put this product on the dried or ventilated area and keep it far away from heat source or explosive product.
2. When charging, please remove the batteries from the quad copter.All the charging process should be under the guidance of the adult so as not to cause accident.
3. When finish flying, please do not charge the battery which surface temperature is still not cooled down.Otherwise it may cause swollen battery or even cause fire disaster.
4. During the process of battery charging, falling down or striking by the outer force should be avoided.Otherwise it may cause short-circuited within the battery and thus may cause danger.
5. In order to make sure safety, please make sure that you need to use the original USB charging wire that made from our factory. When the battery is used for a long time or appears aging or swollen.please replace them timely.
6. When the batteries are fully charged, if you do not remove it from the charger for a long time, the battery may discharge automatically, which may cause battery exhaustion. When the battery voltage that the charger has tested is lower than the rated voltage, the charger will re-charge the battery until it is fully charged. Charging or discharging too often or repeated charging or discharging may reduce the using life of the batteries.
