4. Operating Instructions

4.1 Basic Flight Controls

• One-Key Take-off: Press the one-key take-off button on the remote control. The aircraft will automatically ascend to a stable hovering altitude.
• Throttle (Left Joystick Up/Down): Controls the aircraft's altitude. Push up to ascend, pull down to descend.
• Directional Control (Right Joystick):
  • Forward/Backward: Push up/down to move the aircraft forward or backward.
  • Left/Right: Push left/right to move the aircraft left or right (strafe).
• Yaw (Left Joystick Left/Right): Rotates the aircraft left or right on its vertical axis.
• One-Key Landing: Press the one-key landing button. The aircraft will automatically descend and land gently.

4.2 Advanced Flight Features

• 360° Flip & Stunt Roll: Press the 360° flip button (refer to remote diagram) and then push the right joystick in any direction to perform an aerial flip.
• Headless Mode: Activate Headless Mode by pressing the dedicated button. In this mode, the aircraft's orientation is relative to the pilot, regardless of the aircraft's front direction. This simplifies control for beginners.
• Altitude Hold: The aircraft maintains a stable altitude automatically after take-off, allowing for easier control of horizontal movement.
• Speed Modes: The 4DRC V32 offers three speed options (low, medium, high). Press the speed switch button to cycle through the modes, adjusting flight responsiveness.
• Jettisoning Mode: This mode allows for hand-launching the aircraft. After pairing, gently toss the aircraft into the air while applying throttle.
• One-Click Rotation / Keyboard Spin: Press the one-click rotation button to make the aircraft perform a continuous spin.

4.3 Flight Environment

The 4DRC V32 is suitable for both indoor and outdoor flight. For outdoor use, choose a calm day with minimal wind to ensure stable flight and prevent loss of control. Avoid flying near obstacles, people, or water bodies. The durable EPP material provides resilience against minor impacts.

5. Maintenance

• Cleaning: Gently wipe the aircraft with a soft, dry cloth after each use to remove dust or debris. Avoid using water or harsh chemicals.
• Propeller Replacement: If propellers are damaged, replace them with the provided spare propellers. Ensure the correct propeller (A or B) is installed on the corresponding motor.
• Battery Care: Store batteries in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Do not overcharge or over-discharge batteries. If not used for an extended period, charge them to about 50% capacity.
• Storage: Store the aircraft and remote control in a safe place to prevent damage.
