Read the operating instructions carefully and especially observe the safety information. If you do not follow the safety instructions and information on proper handling in this manual, we assume no liability for any resulting personal injury or damage to property. Such cases will invalidate the warranty/guarantee.

Before use

• Choose a suitable location.
• Check the surroundings for possible hazards or obstacles. · Check that propellers are properly attached and not damaged.
• Check the transmitter batteries have sufficient charge before flying. This will prevent loss of control.
• Turn ON the transmitter first, and then turn ON the quadcopter. This will prevent loss of control.

• Always keep the transmitter on while the quadcopter is in operation.
• Always keep your eye on the quadcopter.

After use

• Turn OFF the quadcopter first, and then turn OFF the transmitter. This will prevent loss of control.

a) Important safety
Caution, safety hazard! This model has the potential to cause damage to property and/or harm individuals. Ensure that you are sufficiently insured, e.g. by taking out private liability insurance. If you already have a policy, check with your insurance company that use of this model is covered by the policy. Important: In some countries, you are required to have insurance when using a model aircraft. Familiarise yourself with the local statutory regulations for using model aircraft. In Germany, for example, the regulations for model aircraft are stipulated in the German Air Traffic Act. Any breaches of the statutory regulations could lead to severe penalties as well as restrictions to your insurance cover.

b) General information

• The device is not a toy. Keep it out of the reach of children and pets.

• Do not leave packaging material lying around carelessly. This may become dangerous playing material for children.

• Protect the device from extreme temperatures, direct sunlight, strong jolts, high humidity, moisture, flammable gases, steam and solvents.

• Do not place the product under any mechanical stress.

• If it is no longer possible to operate the product safely, take it out of operation and protect it from any accidental use. Safe operation can no longer be guaranteed if the product:
  – is visibly damaged,
  – is no longer working properly,
  – has been stored for extended periods in poor ambient conditions or
  – has been subjected to any serious transport-related stresses.

• Please handle the product carefully. Jolts, impacts or a fall even from a low height can damage the product.

• If you have questions which remain unanswered by these operating instructions, contact our technical support service or other technical personnel.

9. Battery information and safety

a) General information

• Do not leave any batteries/rechargeable batteries lying around. There is a risk of batteries being swallowed by children or pets. If swallowed, consult a doctor immediately!
• Batteries/rechargeable batteries must never be short-circuited, disassembled or thrown into fire. There is a danger of explosion!
• Batteries/rechargeable batteries must not get damp or wet.
• Always observe the correct polarity (plus/+ and minus/-) when installing/inserting batteries.
• Leaking or damaged batteries/rechargeable batteries can cause chemical burns to skin. Wear suitable protective gloves when handling them.
• Liquids leaking from batteries/rechargeable batteries are chemically highly aggressive. Objects or surfaces that come into contact with them may take severe damage. Therefore, keep batteries/rechargeable batteries in a suitable location.

b) LiPo (Rechargeable) batteries

• Never damage the rechargeable battery. Damaging the casing of the rechargeable battery might cause an explosion or a fire! Unlike conventional batteries/ rechargeable batteries (e.g. AA or AAA type), the casing of the LiPo rechargeable battery does not consist of a thin sheet but rather a sensitive plastic film only.
• Never short-circuit the contacts of the rechargeable battery. Do not throw the battery or the product into fire. There is a danger of fire and explosion!
• Charge the rechargeable battery regularly, even if you do are not using the product. Due to the rechargeable battery technology being used, you do not need to discharge the rechargeable battery first.
• Never charge the rechargeable battery of the product unattended.
• When charging, place the product on a surface that is not heat-sensitive. It is normal that a certain amount of heat is generated during charging.

c) AA (rechargeable) batteries

• (Rechargeable) batteries should be removed from the device if it is not used for a long period of time to avoid damage through leaking.
• All (rechargeable) batteries should be replaced at the same time. Mixing old and new (rechargeable) batteries in the device can lead to (rechargeable) battery leakage and device damage.
• (Rechargeable) batteries must not be dismantled, short-circuited or thrown into fire. Never recharge non-rechargeable batteries. There is a risk of explosion!

d) Charging the Quadcopter battery

• (If provided) only use the provided charger to charge the battery.
• Always remove and completely disconnect the battery from the model before charging.
• Never leave the battery unattended while charging.
• Never cover the charger and the battery when charging is in progress.
• Disconnect the battery from the charger when the battery is fully charged.
• The charger and the rechargeable battery must not get damp or wet. This may result in a fatal electric shock or cause a fire or explosion!
• Do not expose the charger or battery to extremely high/low temperatures or direct sunlight.
• Never use an excessive charging current. Observe the manufacturer’s specifications for the ideal/maximum charging current.
• Keep a sufficient distance between the charger and the battery while charging.
• Do not wear any metal or conductive materials, such as jewellery (necklaces, bracelets, rings, etc.) while you are working with the charger or battery. Short-circuit poses a danger of burns and explosion.
• When charging, place the battery on a heat-insensitive surface. It is normal that a certain amount of heat is generated during charging.

12. Getting ready for flight

a) Charge the quadcopter battery

Important:

• Only use the included charger to charge the battery pack. Disconnect the battery and remove it from the quadcopter before charging.
• USB power source: Before connecting, make sure that the USB power source can deliver sufficient current, otherwise you may damage the source. Do not use a USB port of a computer, keyboard or USB hub without a power adapter as the current supplied by these ports is insufficient.

Connect one end of the charger to the battery charging connector and the other end to a suitable power supply capable of delivering 5 V/DC 1000 mA via USB A.

b) Insert the transmitter batteries

1. Use a plus head screwdriver to open the battery compartment.
2.  Insert 2x AAA batteries, matching polarities shown inside the compartment.
3. Replace the cover.
   Use new batteries if the LED blinks slowly after switching it on.

c) Insert the quadcopter battery

• Slide the battery into the battery cage and check that it is secure.
• Do not connect the battery plug to the quadcopter battery socket until you are ready for takeoff.
