If not already installed, attach the propellers to the drone. Use the provided screwdriver if necessary. Ensure propellers are securely fastened and rotate freely.
3. Remote Control Setup
The remote control features a 4.3-inch smart screen for real-time image transmission. Ensure the remote control is also charged if it has a rechargeable battery.
4. App Download and Connection (WiFi FPV)
To utilize WiFi FPV and advanced features, download the companion application to your smartphone. The app allows for real-time image transmission and control.
- Scan the QR code provided in the drone's specific packaging or included quick start guide for the correct drone app. Note: The provided PDF manual is for a smartwatch app named "Da Fit" and is not applicable to this drone.
- Connect your smartphone to the drone's WiFi network (usually broadcast by the drone itself).
- Open the app to establish a connection and view the live feed from the drone's camera.
