Accessories

Ready to fly

Choose the flight environment

Open the arm

  • Open wing sequence:
    1. Open the front arm first. (on the camera side)
    2. Open the rear arm again and fold it in the opposite order.

Installation of protective frame
Align the protective frame with the machine arm from the bottom and install it (Picture 1), press it into place, and then press the position (Picture 2) upward to fasten the protective frame.
[Novices must install a protective frame]

Installation of fan blades
Align the fan blades with the motor shaft and install them (the marks on the machine arm and the fan blades must be consistent), and tighten the screws clockwise.
[Be careful to distinguish the A/B fan blades when replacing them. Installing them incorrectly will result in failure to take off]

How to charge the body battery
Notice: When you receive the drone, charge it first. The LED light will be on when charging, and the LED light will go off when charging is completed. The charging time is about 2.5 hours.

Battery usage precautions

  • If the battery leaks, avoid contact of the liquid with skin and eyes.
  • If the charger emits suspicious smell, noise or smoke, please unplug the power source immediately.
  • Please use the special charger supplied by the original factory to charge.
  • Do not charge swollen, leaking or damaged batteries.
  • Do not overcharge the battery. When the battery is fully charged, please unplug the charger.
  • Do not charge near flammable or conductive surfaces.

Remote control battery installation and charging methods

  1. Open the battery cover of the remote control.

  2. Installation of remote control battery AA alkaline battery.

  3. Open the battery cover and insert 3 AA batteries correctly according to the electrode instructions. (You need to bring your own battery)
    Notice:

  4. When installing the battery, you must be sure to identify the positive and negative poles of the battery, and cannot install it backward.

  5. Do not mix old and new batteries.

  6. Do not mix different types of batteries.

Linking the remote control to the drone
After turning on the power switch of the fuselage, place the drone on a horizontal surface, and then turn on the remote control switch. The frequency will be automatically linked. After two beeps, the remote control indicator light and the drone LED light are always on or breathing, then the frequency linking is completed.
[The remote controller and mobile phone cannot control the aircraft at the same time]

Calibration of remote
If the drone cannot rise vertically or deviate when taking off, you can calibrate the drone and press the “One-key Calibration” button. At this time, the drone’s indicator light flashes quickly. When the indicator light stays on, the calibration is completed. When executing the correction command, it must be executed in a stable state parallel to the horizontal line, otherwise the correction effect will be affected.
[It is recommended that novices calibrate 3-5 times before taking off.]

Start flying

  1. One-key takeoff and one-key landing
    Press the “one-key takeoff” button, and the drone’s blades will rotate and automatically fly to a height of about 1.5 meters. Press the button again to land.

  2. Basic flying
    The left joystick controls flight height and left and right turning directions, and the right joystick controls forward, backward, and left and right flight directions.

Roll
After the drone flies to a height of more than 3 meters, click the roll button and move the right joystick (rudder) to the left or right to achieve a roll in this direction.

HOW TO USE

Hover
After using the left joystick to raise the drone, release the left joystick and the drone will still hover at the height when you release the joystick.

Speed gear
Lightly press the button to control the speed of the drone. One “beep” sound is the slow speed. Press the button again. Two “beep” and “beep” sounds are the medium speed. “Beep”, “beep” and “beep” are a fast speed. Then the cycle continues. . The default speed of the drone is low speed.

Obstacle avoidance mode
Press the button to turn on the obstacle avoidance mode, and press it again to turn off the obstacle avoidance mode. Three-sided obstacle avoidance, according to the direction of the remote control, it will stop when encountering obstacles. It is recommended to enable the obstacle avoidance function in an indoor flight environment with a length and width of more than 6 meters x 6 meters. When the obstacle avoidance mode of the drone is turned on, the speed will slow down and the fast gear cannot be turned on. Therefore, it is recommended to fly in a large indoor space when the obstacle avoidance mode is turned on.

Headless mode
After the drone is paired with the frequency, the drone defaults to the normal mode. At this time, the drone’s indicator light is always on. After short pressing the headless function key on the remote control, the remote control emits a “beep” sound to indicate entry. Irrelevant state, press the headless function key again and hear a long “beep” sound to exit the headless state. In the headless state, the operator does not need to identify the direction of the drone’s nose, and only needs to control the aircraft according to the direction of the joystick of the remote controller.

Emergency stop
In case of emergency, long press this button to stop the drone from flying.
[It is not recommended to use it when the aircraft is at a high altitude. It may fall from a high altitude and cause damage, so please use it with caution]

Fine-tuning function
When the aircraft spins in the air or leans in a different direction, fine- tuning correction actions can be used. Press the fine-tuning button and hear a “beep” sound, then move the operating stick [directional lever] in the opposite direction to adjust and calibrate until the aircraft does not fly sideways. If no operation is performed for 5-6 seconds after entering fine- tuning, the fine-tuning function will automatically exit.
[ For example: when the flight is deflected to the left, move the joystick to the right for fine adjustment]

  1. Forward/backward fine adjustment
  2. Left/right fly fine adjustment

Notice:
“Ground effect reaction” means that when the drone flies lower, the impact of ground reaction will be greater. When the drone is within 30 cm from the ground, the drone will be affected by the vortex of its own blades and become unstable.

Basic instructions for drones

  1. UA level:
    The X6 drone is a C0-level toy drone. This type of drone is usually designed for entertainment and leisure activities and is suitable for beginners or young flying enthusiasts. Drones in the C0 category usually have more basic flight functions and simple operating systems.

  2. UA mass and maximum take-off mass (MTOM):
    X6 is a lightweight remote-control folding aircraft with a take-off weight of 98 grams.

  3. Maximum flight speed and maximum flight altitude of UAV:
    The maximum flight speed is 1.5 m/s and the maximum flight altitude is 50 m.

  4. General characteristics of the allowed payload, including mass dimensions, interface with UA, and other possible restrictions:
    The B6 drone does not have a load-carrying function. This means it cannot carry additional equipment or weight, such as cameras or other sensors. It is designed primarily for the basic flying experience.

  5. Remote control of UA equipment and software control methods:
    The B6 drone uses 2.4G frequency for remote control and supports operation via remote control. This control method provides flexible operation options, and users can choose to use a traditional remote control or control through an application on a smart device.

  6. UA behavior description when data link is lost:
    The maximum height that the B6 drone can reach above the take-off point is 50 meters. Exceeding this height may cause the drone to descend out of control, and the operator cannot control the drone during the descent, which may result in the drone being lost. This safety feature reminds users to pay attention to altitude restrictions when flying to avoid flight risks.

  7. Applicable ages for drones:
    This aircraft is only suitable for operation by persons over 14 years of age.

  8. Operation restrictions and operational risks of drones:
    To ensure flight safety, please try to avoid airports, highways, train stations, subway stations, and densely populated urban areas. Do not use the aircraft in extremely bad weather such as strong winds or thunderstorms, and fly within the visual range at night.

  9. Drone operation instructions:
    Please refer to the manual for details. Please use this aircraft under the guidance of the manual.
