5.2. Propeller Installation
- Identify the 'A' and 'B' marked propellers and motors.
- Attach the 'A' propellers to the 'A' motor shafts and 'B' propellers to the 'B' motor shafts.
- Use the provided screwdriver to secure the propellers firmly. Ensure they are not loose.
5.3. Drone and Remote Control Pairing
- Place the drone on a flat, level surface.
- Power on the drone, then power on the remote control.
- The drone and remote control should automatically pair. Refer to the quick start guide for specific pairing sequence if needed.
5.4. App Installation (Optional)
- Download the official drone control app from your smartphone's app store.
- Connect your smartphone to the drone's Wi-Fi network (usually named 'XT606' or similar).
- Open the app to access advanced flight modes, real-time FPV, and camera controls.
6. Operating Instructions
6.1. Basic Flight Controls
- Takeoff/Landing: Use the dedicated one-key takeoff/landing button on the remote control or app.
- Hovering: The drone utilizes Optical Flow + GPS Dual Positioning for stable hovering both indoors and outdoors.
- Directional Control: Use the joysticks on the remote control for ascent, descent, forward, backward, left, and right side flight.
6.2. Intelligent Flight Functions
- GPS Return to Home (RTH): The drone can automatically return to its takeoff point with one click, or in cases of no signal or low battery.
- Custom Route: Draw a desired flight path on the mobile app, and the drone will follow it.
- Intelligent Tracking: The drone can follow a designated subject.
- Surround Flight: The drone can orbit a point of interest.
- Palm Control: Control the drone with hand gestures (refer to app instructions for details).
- Headless Mode: In this mode, the drone's orientation is relative to the pilot, simplifying control regardless of the drone's front direction.
- Fixed Point Sailing: Set specific waypoints for the drone to fly to.
- Gesture Photography: Perform specific hand gestures to trigger photo or video recording (refer to app instructions).
6.3. Obstacle Avoidance

- Recording: Photos and videos can be saved directly to a TD card (microSD card) inserted into the remote control or to your mobile phone album via the app.
7. Maintenance
7.1. Battery Care
- Always use the original charging cables and adapters.
- Do not overcharge or over-discharge the batteries.
- Store batteries in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
- If not used for extended periods, charge the batteries to about 50% for storage.
7.2. Cleaning
- Gently wipe the drone body with a soft, dry cloth.
- Use a lens cleaning cloth for the camera lenses to avoid scratches.
- Ensure no dust or debris accumulates in the motor areas.
7.3. Propeller Inspection and Replacement
- Regularly inspect propellers for any cracks, bends, or damage.
- Replace damaged propellers immediately using the provided spare fan blades and screwdriver.
- Ensure propellers are installed correctly (A to A, B to B) and securely fastened.
8. Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Drone does not take off/respond | Low battery (drone or remote), improper pairing, propellers not installed correctly. | Charge batteries, re-pair drone and remote, check propeller installation. |
| Loss of signal during flight | Out of range, interference, low remote battery. | Activate GPS Return to Home (RTH) function. Fly within specified range. Ensure remote battery is charged. |
| Poor image/video quality | Dirty lens, unstable flight, poor lighting. | Clean camera lens. Ensure stable flight conditions. Fly in well-lit environments. |
| Drone drifts during hover | Improper calibration, strong wind, GPS signal weak. | Perform IMU/compass calibration. Fly in calm conditions. Ensure strong GPS signal (indicated by remote). |
| Obstacle avoidance not working | Sensors obstructed, flying too fast, object too small/transparent. | Ensure sensors are clean and unobstructed. Fly at moderate speeds. Note that some objects may not be detected. |
9. User Tips
- Remote Control Distance: The maximum theoretical remote control distance is 3000m. However, practical operational range, especially for FPV (First Person View) with HD image transmission, is around 1000m to 1200m. For the best experience and safety, keep the drone within this practical range and your visual line of sight.
- Return to Origin: The drone features a reliable GPS Return to Home function. This is automatically triggered if the battery is low or if the connection to the remote control is lost, ensuring your drone safely returns to its takeoff point. You can also manually activate it with a button press.
- Battery Life: While the drone battery offers approximately 25-30 minutes of flight, consider purchasing additional batteries for extended flight sessions.
- Obstacle Avoidance: The 360° obstacle avoidance is a great safety feature, but it's not foolproof. Always remain vigilant and avoid flying in extremely complex environments.
