• Plug the USB charging cable into a compatible USB power source (e.g., computer USB port, USB wall adapter).
• The charging indicator on the USB cable will show charging status (refer to charger's specific light indicators).
• Once fully charged, disconnect the battery from the charger.
• Insert the charged flight battery into the helicopter's battery compartment. Ensure it clicks securely into place.

The remote controller requires 3 AA batteries (not included). Open the battery compartment on the back of the remote controller and insert the batteries, observing polarity.
