Safety Precautions

• Always operate the RC plane in open areas, away from people, animals, buildings, and power lines.
• Do not fly in strong winds or adverse weather conditions.
• Ensure the battery is fully charged before each flight.
• Keep fingers and loose clothing away from propellers when the plane is powered on.
• Recommended age for operation is 8 years and up. Adult supervision is advised for younger users.
• Do not attempt to modify or disassemble the aircraft or its components.
• In case of a crash, inspect the aircraft for damage before attempting another flight.
• The smart alarm system will warn you when the battery is low or the plane approaches the RC range limit. Return the plane immediately upon receiving these alerts.

What's in the Box

Verify that all components are present before proceeding with setup:

• 4DRC G1 RC Plane (G1-blue)
• Remote Control
• High-capacity 550mAh LiPo Battery x 2
• USB Charging Cable
• Spare Propellers
• User Manual (this document)

Setup

1. Battery Installation and Charging

1. Aircraft Battery: Insert the provided 550mAh LiPo battery into the designated compartment on the aircraft. Ensure it is securely connected.
2. Remote Control Batteries: The remote control requires 2 C batteries (included). Open the battery compartment on the back of the remote and insert the batteries, observing polarity.
3. Charging: Connect the aircraft battery to the USB charging cable. Plug the USB cable into a standard USB power adapter (not included). The charging indicator will show the charging status. A full charge typically takes approximately 60-90 minutes.

2. Pre-Flight Check

• Ensure the aircraft's propellers are securely attached and free from obstructions.
• Verify the aircraft's nose cone (silicone protection) is intact.
• Check that both the aircraft and remote control batteries are fully charged.
• Perform a visual inspection for any physical damage to the plane.

Operating Instructions

1. Power On and Pairing

1. Place the aircraft on a flat, level surface.
2. Turn on the aircraft's power switch. The indicator lights will flash.
3. Turn on the remote control. The remote's indicator light will flash.
4. Push the left joystick (throttle) all the way up, then all the way down. The aircraft and remote lights will become solid, indicating successful pairing.

2. Take-Off Modes

The G1 RC Plane supports two take-off methods:

• Hand-Thrown Take-Off: Hold the plane firmly and gently throw it forward while simultaneously increasing throttle. The 6-axis gyro stabilization system will assist in maintaining level flight.
• Ground Take-Off: Place the plane on a smooth, flat surface. Slowly increase throttle, and the plane will taxi forward and take off.

3. Flight Modes and Controls

The remote control allows for precise manipulation of the aircraft.

• Throttle (Left Joystick Up/Down): Controls the speed and altitude.
• Direction (Right Joystick Left/Right): Controls turning left or right.
• Pitch (Right Joystick Up/Down): Controls ascending or descending.
• Speed Modes: The G1 features two speed modes. Use the designated button on the remote to switch between low speed (for beginners) and high speed (for experienced pilots).
• Headless Mode: Activate Headless Mode for simplified control, where the plane's orientation relative to the pilot is maintained regardless of its actual front direction.
• 6-Axis Gyro Stabilizer: This system automatically balances the fuselage and ensures smooth flight, making it easier for beginners to control.

4. Performing Stunts

The G1 RC Plane is capable of various aerial maneuvers:

• Aerobatic Rolls: Execute forward and backward aerobatic rolls.
• Flip Flying: Perform left and right side flips.
• Mirror Flight: Engage in mirror flight maneuvers.
• Aerial Hovering: The 6-axis gyro allows for stable aerial hovering.

5. Landing

To land the aircraft, slowly decrease the throttle while guiding the plane to a clear, flat landing area. Maintain control until the plane comes to a complete stop.

Maintenance

• Cleaning: Wipe the aircraft with a soft, dry cloth after each use to remove dust and debris. Do not use water or harsh chemicals.
• Propeller Replacement: If propellers are damaged, carefully remove them and install new ones, ensuring correct orientation.
• Storage: Store the aircraft and remote control in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Remove batteries from the remote control if storing for extended periods.
• EPP Foam Durability: The aircraft is constructed from EPP foam, which boasts superior durability and high toughness, resisting deformation.
