1. Locate the charging port on the Orbiter.
2. Connect the USB charging cable to the Orbiter and to a compatible USB power source (e.g., computer, USB wall adapter).
3. A full charge takes approximately 20 minutes and provides about 5 minutes of flight time.
4. Important: Do not overcharge the Orbiter. Always turn OFF the Orbiter when not in use or when charging.

Operating Instructions

Turning On and Launching

1. Locate the ON/OFF switch on the Orbiter ball.
2. Slide the switch to the "ON" position. The LED lights will illuminate.
3. Hold the Orbiter upright for 3-5 seconds. The propellers will begin to spin.
4. Release the Orbiter gently from your hand to initiate flight.

Controlling Flight

• Hand Control: Place your hand underneath the Orbiter to direct its flight path. The Orbiter is equipped with motion sensors that detect your hand and cause it to ascend.
• Obstacle Avoidance: The Orbiter features smart obstacle avoidance technology. Its propellers will automatically stop rotating upon falling to the ground or colliding with objects, helping to prevent damage.
• LED Lights: The Orbiter projects a kaleidoscope of LED lights, creating a vibrant display as it flies.

Stopping the Orbiter

• Remote Control: Use the included one-touch remote control to start or stop the Orbiter's flight. Press the ON/OFF button on the remote to activate or deactivate the Orbiter.
• Manual Stop: Gently grab the Orbiter from the bottom to stop its propellers.

Safety Information

• Keep fingers away from propeller blades at all times.
• For indoor use only.
• Do not launch at people or animals.
• Keep away from face, eyes, and hair. Tie hair back, wear a hood or a hat to avoid entanglement.
• Ages 8 and up. Always fly under adult supervision.
• Make sure people around you are aware you are playing with this toy. Keep your eyes on the toy at all times.
• Always turn OFF when not in use or when charging.
• Only use the included USB cable for charging.

Maintenance

• Cleaning: Wipe the Orbiter gently with a dry, soft cloth. Do not use water or cleaning solutions.
• Storage: Store the Orbiter in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
• Propeller Care: The flexible propellers are designed to withstand minor impacts. If a propeller becomes bent, gently reshape it. If severely damaged, replacement may be necessary (contact support for assistance).

Troubleshooting

• Orbiter not flying or losing power quickly: Ensure the Orbiter is fully charged. Refer to the "Charging the Orbiter" section.
• Orbiter not responding to hand gestures: Ensure the motion sensors on the bottom of the Orbiter are clean and unobstructed.
• Propellers not spinning: Check if the ON/OFF switch is fully in the "ON" position. If the Orbiter has recently crashed, the safety mechanism might have temporarily stopped the propellers. Turn off and then on again.
• Remote control not working: Ensure the remote control's battery (1x CR1220) is functional. Replace if necessary.
