2. Installing Propeller Protective Covers

For added safety, especially for beginners or indoor flights, install the propeller guards. Align the guards with the drone's arms and gently push them into place until they click securely. These guards protect the propellers from collisions and enhance user safety.

Insert a fully charged modular battery into the drone's battery compartment until it clicks. For the remote control, open the battery cover and insert 4 AAA batteries (not included), ensuring correct polarity.

To charge the drone's modular batteries, connect them to the USB Type-C charging cable and plug it into a USB power source (e.g., computer, USB adapter). The LED indicator on the cable will show charging status. A full charge provides up to 9 minutes of flight time per battery, with 2 batteries included for a total of 18 minutes.
