2. Safety Precautions
To ensure safe operation and prevent injury or damage, please read and adhere to the following safety guidelines:
- Adult Supervision: This product is recommended for ages 15 and above. Adult supervision is advised for younger users.
- Flight Environment: Always fly in open, clear areas away from people, buildings, trees, power lines, and water. Avoid flying in strong winds or adverse weather conditions.
- Pre-Flight Check: Before each flight, ensure all components are securely attached, batteries are fully charged, and the remote control is functioning correctly.
- Battery Safety: Use only the specified battery and charger. Do not overcharge or short-circuit batteries. Discontinue use if batteries show signs of damage or swelling.
- Propeller Safety: Keep hands, face, and loose clothing away from rotating propellers.
- Respect Airspace: Be aware of local regulations regarding drone and RC aircraft operation. Do not fly near airports or restricted airspace.
- Emergency Landing: In case of loss of control, immediately cut the throttle to minimize potential damage.

4. Setup and Assembly
4.1. Battery Charging
Charge the aircraft's lithium battery using the provided charger. Connect the battery to the charger, then plug the charger into a suitable power source. The charging indicator will show the charging status. Disconnect once fully charged.
4.2. Remote Controller Battery Installation
Open the battery compartment on the back of the remote controller. Insert the required batteries (typically AA, not included) according to the polarity markings. Close the compartment securely.
4.3. Aircraft Assembly
The BM30 aircraft is largely pre-assembled. Ensure the wings and tail sections are securely attached. Refer to the product images for visual guidance on the aircraft's structure.

4.4. Binding the Remote Controller
1. Ensure the aircraft battery is connected and the aircraft is placed on a flat surface.
2. Turn on the remote controller. The indicator light will flash.
3. Move the throttle stick (left stick) all the way up, then all the way down. The remote controller will beep, and the indicator light will become solid, indicating successful binding.
5. Operating Instructions
The BM30 features a 3-channel remote control system with auto-balance flight assist for easier control.
5.1. Remote Controller Functions
Image: Detailed diagram of the remote control, showing functions for throttle, yaw, pitch, roll, light control, and trim settings.
- Left Stick (Throttle/Yaw):
- Up/Down: Controls throttle (ascend/descend).
- Left/Right: Controls yaw (left/right turn).
- Right Stick (Pitch/Roll):
- Up/Down: Controls pitch (nose up/down).
- Left/Right: Controls roll (wing tilt left/right).
- Light ON/OFF Button: Toggles the aircraft's lights.
- Larger Rudder (Stunt Mode) Button: Activates mid-air acrobatic maneuvers.
- Trimmers: Adjust for stable flight if the aircraft drifts without input.

5.2. First Flight Tips
- Open Space: Always choose a wide, open outdoor space free from obstacles.
- Gentle Control: Start with gentle movements of the control sticks. The auto-balance function will assist in maintaining stability.
- Take-off: Gently increase throttle and hand-launch the aircraft into the wind, or take off from a smooth surface if equipped with landing gear.
- Landing: Reduce throttle gradually and guide the aircraft to a gentle descent.

6. Maintenance
6.1. Cleaning
Wipe the aircraft and remote controller with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or solvents.
6.2. Storage
Store the aircraft and remote controller in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Remove batteries from the remote controller if storing for extended periods.
6.3. Battery Care
Always fully charge the aircraft battery before use and allow it to cool before recharging. Do not store batteries fully charged or fully discharged for long periods. Store at approximately 50% charge.
6.4. EPP Foam Repair
The EPP foam material is durable and crash-resistant. In case of minor damage, use foam-safe glue for repairs.

7. Troubleshooting
- Aircraft not responding:
- Ensure aircraft and remote control batteries are charged and correctly installed.
- Re-bind the remote controller to the aircraft.
- Check for interference from other 2.4GHz devices.
- Aircraft drifts during flight:
- Adjust the trim settings on the remote controller.
- Ensure the aircraft is launched or takes off from a level surface.
- Check for damage to propellers or control surfaces.
- Short flight time:
- Ensure the battery is fully charged.
- Battery may be old or damaged and require replacement.
