Operating Instructions

1. Power On/Off

• Drone: Press and hold the power button on the drone until the indicator lights turn on.
• Remote Control: Press and hold the power button on the remote control until the screen illuminates.

2. Pairing the Drone and Remote Control

After powering on both devices, place the drone on a flat, level surface. Push the left joystick on the remote control up and then down. The drone's indicator lights will stop flashing and become solid, indicating successful pairing.

3. Takeoff and Landing

• One-Key Takeoff: After pairing, press the one-key takeoff/landing button on the remote control. The drone will automatically ascend to a stable hovering height.
• Manual Takeoff: After pairing, push both joysticks down and outwards simultaneously to unlock the motors. Slowly push the left joystick up to ascend.
• One-Key Landing: Press the one-key takeoff/landing button again. The drone will automatically descend and land.
• Manual Landing: Slowly pull the left joystick down to descend. Once landed, push both joysticks down and inwards to lock the motors.

4. Flight Controls

The S160 drone utilizes a standard control scheme:

• Left Joystick (Throttle/Yaw):
  • Up/Down: Ascend/Descend
  • Left/Right: Rotate Left/Right (Yaw)
• Right Joystick (Forward/Backward/Side-to-Side):
  • Up/Down: Fly Forward/Backward
  • Left/Right: Fly Left/Right (Strafe)

5. Advanced Flight Features
