• Keep fingers and loose clothing away from rotating propellers.
• Children should operate the drone under adult supervision.

Setup

1. Charging the Batteries

Before first use, fully charge both drone batteries and the remote controller (if applicable). Connect the USB charging cable to the battery and a suitable USB power adapter (not included). The charging indicator will show the charging status.

• Charging time: Approximately 60-90 minutes per battery.
• Flight time: Up to 15 minutes per battery, totaling 30 minutes with two batteries.

2. Installing Batteries

Insert the charged battery into the drone's battery compartment. Ensure it clicks securely into place. For the remote controller, open the battery cover and insert the required batteries (usually AA, check remote for specifics, not detailed in product data).

3. Unfolding the Drone

Gently unfold the drone's arms until they lock into position. Ensure all four arms are fully extended and stable before powering on.
