SYNCING YOUR DRONE
Important!
When syncing your drone with the controller always make sure that the drone is
on a flat level surface. This ensures that the 6-axis gyro is properly
programmed to mimic your trim settings. Your drone utilizes an automatic 2.4G
channel selection system that allows up to 4 people to fly side by side in the
same wireless range.
- Before starting, make sure that both your controller and drone are powered off. Make sure that there are no other 2.4G devices in the area as well.
- Connect the battery to your drone and set it down on a flat-level surface. The blue and red LED indicators of the drone should start flashing slowly after you long press the Power Button.
- Turn ON your remote and you will hear 1 short beep, the blue and red LED lights will start flashing rapidly then slower.
- Push the throttle all the way up then pull it down. You will hear one long beep and the LED lights will turn solid. Your drone and remote should have successfully synced. Should this not happen, repeat all steps.
FLIGHT CONTROL
Below is a list of basic flight functions for your long-range remote to
control the drone. While learning to fly your drone it is best to start in a
large space with the drone facing away from you until you get used to the
basic controls. As you master flying your drone you can move to more advanced
maneuvering techniques. Practice makes perfect!
NOW YOU ARE READY TO FLY!
If you have successfully synced your drone to your controller as explained in
“SYNCING YOUR DRONE” You are now ready to fly. Before beginning to fly your
drone you should familiarize yourself with how to start and stop the rotors,
how to use your take-off and auto-land features and how the controls work.
please carefully read and familiarize yourself with various control features
explained in the next few pages. Once again as a beginner pilot, you should
learn how to control your drone in a large open field or park on a day with
zero or very light wind. Do not try to fly your drone too high until you
become a more experienced pilot.
AUTOMATICALLY TAKE OFF / LAND
Make sure you have properly synced the drone.
- simply press the Auto Start/Land button, and your drone will automatically take off.
- To stop or land the drone just Press the Auto Start/Land button again and the drone will descend and land automatically.
- Tips: You also can push the left control stick (throttle) up slowly, and hold it till you see the blades start spinning.
- Then the drone will take off manually.
UNDERSTANDING THE ALTITUDE LOCK
The drone has a unique Altitude Lock function. With the help of an air
pressure sensor, you can control, your drone more stable than ever. The sensor
locks in the altitude of the drone while allowing the user to adjust the
directional control without having to hold the throttle. After starting the
drone, fly upwards to a safe height. Once at a safe height, let go of the
throttle control, your drone should lock in the altitude and allow the user to
focus on getting used to the directional controls.
NOTE: The altitude sensor does have some tolerance based on atmospheric
conditions and could have a slight variation in altitude.
SPEED SETTING BUTTON
The drone has 3-speed Modes; 1 (SLOW), 2 (MEDIUM) and 3(HIGH). The Default
setting when you first turn on your drone is 1 (SLOW). Short press the speed
setting button (the left control stick) you can switch between the 3 speed
settings. One “beep” for slow speed, two “beep” for medium speed, and three
“beep” for high speed.
UNDERSTANDING TRIM ADJUSTMENTS
- If your drone flies forward, press the trimming button, and pull the Throttle’s stick down repeatedly until the moving stops and proper flight is maintained.
- If your drone flies backwards, push forward the Throttle stick until the problem is resolved.
- From time to time, you may have to adjust the direction of forward and backward to ensure the drone will hover in mid-air and respond accurately to your commands.
- If your drone is not steadily hovering and is banking to the left or right automatically, you may need to adjust the left or right direction.
- If your drone banks to the left, push Direction Control to the right repeatedly until the banking stops and proper flight is maintained.
- If your drone banks to the right, push Direction Control to the left until the problem is resolved.
- From time to time, you may have to adjust the left or right direction to ensure the drone will respond accurately to your commands.
- NOTE: The use of the Trimming button is accompanied by a beep tone. A single long beep indicates the product is centre-trimmed.
- No beeping after pressing the trim button indicates the product is trimmed to the maximum on a particular side.
FLIGHT CONTROL
CALIBRATING THE DRONE
If the drone becomes unstable during flying, you may need to calibrate the
internal gyros. To do this place the drone on a flat level surface. Do not
start the blades. Instead, move the Throttle stick down and to the left corner
and move the right control stick down and to the right corner. The LEDs on the
drone will flash quickly and then remain solid, this indicates your drone has
been recalibrated Isep diagram E)
HOW TO DO 360° STUNT ROLLS
-
To make your drone do 360° rolls you must fully charge your battery.
Note: The drone will not do 360° stunt rolls under low battery indication (The LED lights on the drone will be flashing). -
Once you are ready to attempt a 360° roll, simply press down the Right Control Stick. You will hear one “beep”, this means you are now in “STUNT MODE.”
-
Now quickly move your right control stick in any of 4 directions; up, down, left or right. Your drone will instantly roll in the associated direction. See the diagram below.
Headless Mode
- To activate Headless Mode, long press down on the Right Control Stick on the remote control.
- The rear LED light of the drone will turn into solid blue while Headless Mode is ON. Press the button again to deactivate Headless Mode.
- The drone will always move in the direction you press the right control stick about the remote control, no matter which direction the drone is currently facing.
- Pressing the right joystick up will make the drone fly away from the remote control, and pressing the right joystick down will make the drone fly towards the remote control.
- When the headless mode is active, the remote control will beep every 6 seconds.
