4. Operating Instructions

4.1 Pre-Flight Checks

• Ensure batteries are fully charged for both drone and remote.
• Check that propellers are securely attached and undamaged.
• Verify GPS signal acquisition (indicated by solid GPS light on drone/remote or app).
• Perform compass calibration as instructed by the app or remote control.
• Ensure you are in an open area, away from obstacles, people, and restricted airspace.

4.2 Basic Flight Controls

Refer to the remote control diagram in the app or a separate quick start guide for specific button layouts. Common controls include:

• Left Stick: Throttle (up/down), Yaw (rotate left/right).
• Right Stick: Pitch (forward/backward), Roll (sideways left/right).
• One-Key Takeoff/Landing: Initiates automatic takeoff or landing.
• Emergency Stop: Immediately stops motors (use only in emergencies).

4.3 GPS Functions

The RG106 drone utilizes GPS/GLONASS dual-mode satellite positioning for enhanced stability and intelligent flight features.

• GPS One-Key Return: Press the return button on the remote or in the app. The drone will automatically return to its takeoff point. This function also activates automatically upon low battery or signal loss.
• GPS Intelligent Following: After GPS connection, enable the follow function in the HFun PIus app. The drone will follow your mobile device's movement.
• Trajectory Flight: Draw a desired flight path on the map within the HFun PIus app. The drone will autonomously fly along the specified route.
• Fixed Point Surround (Orbit Flight): Select a point on the map (4-20 meters away) in the app, and the drone will orbit around it at a set radius.

4.4 Camera Operation

The RG106 features an 8K dual camera system with a 3-axis self-stabilizing gimbal for smooth footage.

• Photo/Video Capture: Use the dedicated buttons on the remote control or within the HFun PIus app to take photos or start/stop video recording.
• Adjustable Camera: The camera angle can be adjusted 90° via the remote control or app.
• Gesture Photo Recognition: Within 1-3 meters of the aircraft, face the camera and make specific hand gestures to trigger photo or video recording.
• Image Following: From 1-3 meters away, the drone can identify a target and automatically follow its movement for video capture.
• MV Features (App): The HFun PIus app includes features to apply filters, video effects, add background music, and share photos/videos directly.

5. Maintenance

• Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the drone body and camera lens. Avoid using liquids or solvents.
• Propellers: Regularly inspect propellers for cracks, bends, or damage. Replace any damaged propellers immediately using the provided spare parts.
• Battery Care: Store batteries in a cool, dry place. Do not overcharge or over-discharge. If storing for extended periods, charge batteries to approximately 50-60%.
• Storage: When not in use, store the drone and its components in the provided storage bag or a protective case to prevent damage.

6. Troubleshooting

• Drone not powering on: Ensure the battery is fully charged and correctly inserted.
• Remote control not connecting: Ensure both drone and remote are powered on and within range. Re-pair if necessary according to app instructions.
• No GPS signal: Fly in an open outdoor area, away from tall buildings or strong magnetic interference. Allow time for GPS acquisition.
• Unstable flight: Perform compass calibration. Check propellers for damage or incorrect installation. Ensure no strong winds.
• Poor camera feed: Ensure a stable 5G WiFi connection between your phone and the drone. Reduce interference by flying in an open area.
