6. Operating Instructions

6.1 Pairing the Drone and Controller

1. Place the drone on a flat, level surface.
2. Turn on the drone. The LED lights will flash.
3. Turn on the remote controller.
4. Push the left joystick (throttle) all the way up, then all the way down. The drone's LED lights will stop flashing and become solid, indicating successful pairing.

6.2 Gyro Calibration

After pairing, perform a gyro calibration for stable flight. Push both joysticks down and to the right simultaneously. The drone's lights will flash rapidly and then become solid, indicating calibration is complete.

6.3 Taking Off and Landing

• Manual Takeoff: Push both joysticks down and outwards to start the propellers. Then, slowly push the left joystick (throttle) up to ascend.
• One-Key Takeoff/Landing: Press the dedicated One-Key Takeoff/Landing button (often indicated by an arrow pointing up/down) on the controller. The drone will automatically take off and hover, or land gently.
• Manual Landing: Slowly pull the left joystick (throttle) down until the drone lands. Once on the ground, hold the joystick down for a few seconds until the propellers stop.
