FEATURES

TRANSMITTER DESCRIPTION

The transmitter is a handheld device with two joysticks and several buttons. Key components are labeled:

Visual Description of Transmitter: The diagram shows the top view of the drone's remote control. It has a rounded, ergonomic shape with two main joysticks. The left joystick is labeled 'D' (Throttle lever) and the right joystick is labeled 'J' (Directional lever). Above the left joystick are buttons 'B' (Speed button) and 'C' (Headless mode on/off). Below the left joystick is button 'K' (Button not used). Between the joysticks, towards the top, is a power indicator LED labeled 'A'. Below this LED are buttons 'E' (Start/landing) and 'F' (Power on/off). To the right of the right joystick are buttons 'G' (Stunt flip button), 'H' (Front/back trimming), and 'I' (Left/right trimming). The overall layout indicates a standard two-stick remote control for a drone.

CHARGING THE DRONE BATTERY

  1. Turn power off on the drone (switch on bottom of aircraft).
  2. Open the battery compartment and carefully remove battery.
  3. Disconnect the battery from the battery cable.
  4. Plug the USB charging cable into the battery.
  5. Connect the other end of the charging cable to a computer USB port.
  6. An LED on the charging cable will turn off, indicating that the battery is being charged.
  7. When the battery is fully charged (about 1.5 hours), the LED will turn on.
  8. Disconnect the battery from the charging cable when it is fully charged. Do not overcharge.

Visual Description of Charging Setup: A diagram illustrates the charging process. It shows a drone battery connected via a USB charging cable to a laptop's USB port. The cable has an "Indicator light" near the battery connection point, which changes status to indicate charging (off) and full charge (on).

INSERT BATTERIES IN TRANSMITTER

  1. Open the battery compartment on the transmitter.
  2. Insert 4 AAA batteries (included), being careful to follow the polarity diagrams inside the compartment ("+" or "-").
  3. Close the compartment. NOTE: Sharper Image recommends alkaline batteries. Always use fresh batteries. For best results, do not mix old and new batteries.

Visual Description of Transmitter Battery Compartment: A diagram shows the underside of the transmitter with its battery compartment open. Four AAA batteries are depicted being inserted, with clear polarity markings (+) and (-) visible within the compartment to guide correct insertion.

PAIRING THE DRONE WITH THE TRANSMITTER

  1. Turn the drone power on.
  2. Place the drone on a flat, level surface, with the tail end (green LEDs) pointed toward you.
  3. Press the power button on the transmitter. You will hear a beep.
  4. Push the throttle lever (left stick) to the highest position, then pull it straight down to the lowest position. You will hear one beep for each throttle movement.
  5. When the drone LEDs stop flashing and remain on, you have successfully paired the drone with the transmitter. NOTE: It is possible to fly two or more of these drones together, however they must be paired one at a time.

LIFTOFF AND LANDING

  1. To lift off, press the “START/LANDING” button to start the aircraft. At this time, the motors of the aircraft will be running slowly. Push the throttle lever upward to increase power and take off.

LIFTOFF AND LANDING (CONT.)

EMERGENCY STOP

If you need to stop immediately, pull the throttle lever down and to the left. At the same time, pull the directional lever down and to the right. The aircraft will stop quickly.

Visual Description of Emergency Stop Control: A diagram shows the transmitter with both joysticks pulled to specific positions for an emergency stop. The left joystick (throttle) is pulled down and to the left. The right joystick (directional) is pulled down and to the right. This combined action is indicated as "Emergency stop".

HEADLESS MODE

Headless mode makes this drone easier for beginners to fly, because there is no specified "front end" or "rear end." In Headless Mode, when you bank left, the drone banks left. When you bank right, the drone banks right, regardless of what direction the colors are facing.

To turn on Headless Mode:

  1. Start with the drone on a flat, level surface, with the green LEDs facing you.
  2. Press the Headless Mode On/Off button.
  3. You will hear continuous beeps. This means you are in Headless Mode. Now you may liftoff as described earlier.
  4. To exit Headless Mode, press the Headless Mode On/Off button once more. You will hear one beep, and the drone will return to normal flight mode.

CONTROLLING THE DRONE

Ascending/Descending Control:

A diagram shows the drone and the transmitter's left joystick (throttle lever). An upward arrow from the joystick indicates "Ascending" movement of the drone, and a downward arrow indicates "Descending" movement. When pushing the throttle lever upward, the aircraft will ascend. When the throttle lever is pushed down, the aircraft drops.

Turning Left/Right Control:

A diagram shows the drone rotating horizontally and the transmitter's left joystick (throttle lever). A left arrow from the joystick indicates "Turn-left" movement of the drone, and a right arrow indicates "Turn-right" movement. When pushing the throttle lever to the left, the aircraft will turn left. When the throttle lever is pushed to the right, the aircraft will turn right.

Moving Forward/Backward Control:

A diagram shows the drone moving along a horizontal axis and the transmitter's right joystick (directional lever). An upward arrow from the joystick indicates "Forward" movement of the drone, and a downward arrow indicates "Backward" movement. When pushing the direction lever upward, the aircraft will advance forward. When the direction lever is pulled back, the aircraft will pull down.

Moving Left-side/Right-side Control:

A diagram shows the drone moving sideways and the transmitter's right joystick (directional lever). A left arrow from the joystick indicates "Left-side" movement of the drone, and a right arrow indicates "Right-side" movement. When pushing the direction lever to the left, the aircraft will fly to the left side. When the direction of the joystick is to the right, the aircraft will fly on the right side.

ROLLING AND TUMBLING STUNT FLIPS

Tumbling Forward:

A diagram illustrates the drone performing a forward flip. The instruction states: First press the stunt flip button (back button on the remote control). Then, when pushing the direction lever upward, the aircraft will tumble forward.

Tumbling Backward:

A diagram illustrates the drone performing a backward flip. The instruction states: First press the stunt flip button (back button on the remote control). Then, when the direction of the lever is pulled down, the aircraft will tumble backward.

Tumbling to the Left:

A diagram illustrates the drone performing a left-side flip. The instruction states: First press the stunt flip button (back button on the remote control). Then, when the direction of the joystick is to the left, the aircraft will turn left (tumble left).

Tumbling to the Right:

A diagram illustrates the drone performing a right-side flip. The instruction states: First press the stunt flip button (back button on the remote control). Then, when the direction of the joystick is to the right, the aircraft will turn right (tumble right).

TRIMMING AND CALIBRATING THE DRONE

Trimming Forward/Backward:

A diagram shows the drone drifting forward and backward. If the drone deviates forward, trim it to the back until it is well repaired. If the drone deviates backward, trim it to the front until it is well repaired. This adjusts the drone's stable hover position.

Trimming Left/Right:

A diagram shows the drone drifting left and right. If the drone deviates to the left, trim it to the right until it is well repaired. If the drone deviates to the right, fine-tune adjustments to the left until the repair is complete. This adjusts the drone's stable hover position.

Calibration:

If the quad-rotor cannot ascend vertically when taking off, perform a calibration. To calibrate, pull the throttle lever and directional lever to the down-left corner simultaneously. The indicator of the quad-rotor will quickly flash. Release all actions on the transmitter. Wait until the indicator remains brightly "ON," and the calibration is finished.

AUTO HOVER MODE

When you reach your desired altitude, release the throttle lever to maintain the altitude in auto hover mode.
