• Throttle Control: Typically the left stick, controls altitude (up/down).
• Directional Control: Typically the right stick, controls forward/backward, left/right movement.
• Takeoff/Landing: Dedicated button or combination stick movement for automated takeoff and landing. Long press for emergency stop.
• Obstacle Avoidance: Activate this feature to utilize the drone's 720-degree obstacle sensors.
• 360-Degree Tumbling: Press the designated button and move the right stick in the desired direction to perform a 360-degree flip.

4.3 Camera Operation

The H-58X features a dual camera system capable of 4K video recording.

• Photography: Press the camera button on the remote to capture still images.
• Video Recording: Press the video button to start/stop recording. Ensure a compatible memory card is inserted if required.
• Adjustable Lens: The electric tuning dual lens allows for remote adjustment of the shooting angle, including a 90-degree control for the bottom screen.

5. Features Overview

The Hubsan H-58X drone incorporates several advanced features designed to enhance flight safety and performance:

5.1 Obstacle Sensors

The H-58X is equipped with 720-degree obstacle sensors that activate during flight. This system minimizes the chance of collisions, making your flight safer and more enjoyable by detecting and avoiding obstacles in front, back, left, and right directions.

5.4 VPS Sensor (Visual Positioning System)

With the Visual Positioning System (VPS) sensor, the drone maintains stability in windless areas and accurately holds its position without requiring constant manual input, ensuring a steady hover.

5.5 360-Degree Tumbling

The H-58X can perform 360-degree tumbling maneuvers in any direction (front, right, or left), adding an exciting element to your flight experience.

6. Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your drone:

• Cleaning: After each flight, gently wipe the drone's body and camera lens with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust and debris. Avoid using liquid cleaners directly on electronic components.
• Propeller Inspection: Regularly check propellers for any cracks, bends, or damage. Replace damaged propellers immediately to ensure stable flight.
• Battery Care: Store batteries in a cool, dry place. Do not overcharge or over-discharge batteries. If storing for extended periods, charge them to approximately 50% capacity.
• Motor Inspection: Ensure motors are free from obstructions and can spin freely.

7. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your Hubsan H-58X drone, refer to the following common problems and solutions:

• Drone does not power on: Ensure the battery is fully charged and correctly inserted. Check the power button for proper function.
• Drone does not pair with remote: Ensure both the drone and remote are powered on. Try restarting both devices and repeat the pairing process. Ensure no other strong wireless signals are interfering.
• Unstable flight/Drifting: Calibrate the drone's gyroscope and compass as per the quick start guide. Check for damaged propellers and replace if necessary. Ensure you are flying in an area with minimal wind.
• Camera not recording/taking photos: Ensure a compatible memory card is inserted correctly (if applicable). Check the camera settings via the app (if applicable) or remote control.
• Obstacle avoidance not working: Ensure the obstacle avoidance feature is activated. Clean the obstacle sensors to ensure they are not obstructed.

If problems persist, consult the official Hubsan support resources or contact customer service.
