CHARGING THE HOVER STAR™
-
Make sure the power switch is turned off and then plug the UFO (smaller end) end of the charging cord into the charging socket of the HOVER STAR (see diagram A ).
-
Next Connect the USB end of the charging cord to either your computers USB port or a UL listed USB wall charger (see diagram B).
-
The USB cord has a RED colored LED light that will “turn off” during charging and “light up” when charging is complete (See diagram C).
Note : If the red LED lights up, either the charging is complete or the USB plug is not properly connected. If you have used the UFO for several minutes and have plugged in your charging cord and see a solid RED LED light chances are you have not plugged in the cord in correctly. -
The charging time may vary depending on the remaining percentage of battery charge left after flying. The average charging time is approximately 30 minutes. The HOVER STAR operates for approximately 5-7 minutes per charge.
-
LOW BATTERY INDICATION: When the battery is low, lights on the body of the HOVER STAR will begin to flash and will continue to flash for 30-60 seconds then the HOVER STAR will automatically land.

PREPARING FOR FLIGHT
- Verify that HOVER STAR has been fully charged.
- Make sure the empty space has no obstacles that would obstruct flight
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO FLY YOUR HOVER STAR OUTDOORS. IT COULD DAMAGE YOUR PRODUCT.
LETS GET STARTED!
Follow these simple steps in the order below and you will be successfully
flying your HOVER STAR in no time!
- When using the HOVER STAR, first find a room in your house with high ceilings and a large open space where you have room to walk around. You may need to move some furniture.
- Make sure all external sources of wind like ceiling fans, floor fans or opened windows are turned off and closed. Central Air conditioning should be okay but it is a good idea to stay away from strong drafty areas.
- Make sure your HOVER STAR is fully charged.
- Short press the Power Button until the LED lights on the HOVER STAR turn on and become solid green (see diagram D)
- Hold the HOVER STAR in the mid-air and then quickly release it as if you were dropping it from your hand, The HOVER STAR will automatically turn on and begin hovering.
- To stop the HOVER STAR quickly capture the HOVER STAR with your hand and turn it upside down (see diagram E) the blades will stop spinning.
- When done playing make sure to turn the power off by depressing the power button for 3 seconds (see power button diagram on pg. 3 ) All the lights will turn off.
HOW TO CONTROL YOUR HOVER STAR™
Your HOVER STAR is equipped with motion sensors and air pressure sensors which
read your hand motions to determine its direction for flight.
TO MAKE YOUR HOVER STAR™ GO UP:
There are 2 ways to make your HOVER STAR ascend:
- Place one hand palm side up directly underneath the bottom of the HOVER STAR and slowly move your hand straight up, HOVER STAR will rise upward (See Diagram F)
- The second way which will create a faster response, is to hold both your hands out simultaneously on both sides of the HOVER STAR about two inches from the body so the HOVER STAR is in the center space between your two hands. The drone will quickly ascend! (See Diagram G)
TO MAKE YOUR HOVER STAR™ FLY HORIZONTALLY ACROSS THE ROOM:
Hold your hand up vertically palm side facing the HOVER STAR like your going
to push it away, but don’t actually touch it. The HOVER STAR will begin to
move in the opposite direction of your hand (See Diagram H). 
TO MAKE YOUR HOVER STAR™ MOVE FASTER AND FURTHER.
Once you have gotten the hang of controlling the direction of your HOVER STAR
simply move your hand along outside of the HOVER STAR as it begins to fly
away, literally follow the HOVER STAR with your hand. The longer and faster
you move your hand behind the HOVER STAR the further and faster it will fly
(See diagram I) Remember to follow behind it, not touch it.
TROUBLE SHOOTING:
If your HOVER STAR drifts uncontrollably or does not respond correctly to the hand movements as explained above you may need to recalibrate the internal gyro sensor.
HOW TO RECALIBRATE THE GYRO:
a) first start with the HOVER STAR in the power-off position. Next, hold
the HOVER STAR upside down (See diagram J).
b) Quickly depress and release the power button 2 times and the lights on
the body should begin to rapidly flash red and green, this is how you know
that you are in “Calibration Mode”. (See diagram K).
c) While the lights are flashing turn the HOVER STAR back over right side
up and set it on flat level surface (See diagram L).
d) When the lights stop flashing and you have solid green light on the
body, you have successfully completed the calibration process and you are
ready to fly!
