Pre-Flight Preparations
1. Flight Environment
Indoor: Spacious areas away from barriers, crowds, or pets are preferred.
Outdoor: Sunny, windless, and breezy weather conditions are preferred.
Please keep the drone in sight during flight and away from barriers, high-tension cables, trees, and people. Do not fly in extreme environments such as high heat, extreme cold, strong winds, or heavy rain.
2. Unfold Crankshafts
Unfolding Sequence:
- Unfold the rear crankshafts.
- Unfold the front crankshafts (near the camera).
Fold the crankshafts in reverse order.

3. Propellers Installation
A corresponds to A, B corresponds to B.
Release screws counter-clockwise with the screwdriver and pull out the propellers. Install the propellers correspondingly and screw them on clockwise.
Diagram showing propeller installation with labels A and B.
Notes: When installing or dismantling propellers, do not exert excessive force to avoid distortion.
4. Battery Installation of Drone
A. Press the button on the battery box, push the battery backward to the end, and take it out upward.
B. Take out the battery upward.
C. Connect the USB charging cable with the charging interface of the lithium battery.
Diagram showing drone battery removal and USB charging connection.
Notes: LED lights are off when charging. LED lights are on when charging is complete. Charging time is approximately 70 minutes.
Battery Instructions
Using lithium batteries carries inherent risks, including fire, injury, or property loss. Users must be aware of these risks and take full responsibility for improper battery use.
If battery leakage occurs, avoid contact with eyes and skin. Wash eyes with clean water and seek immediate medical attention if contact occurs.
Remove the plug immediately if you notice any peculiar smell, noise, or smoke.
Battery Charging
- Use only the original factory charger for safe usage.
- Do not charge batteries that are swollen or worn out.
- Do not overcharge the battery; unplug the charger once fully charged.
- Do not charge the battery near flammable materials (carpet, wood furniture) or on conductive surfaces. Always monitor the battery during charging.
- Do not charge a battery that has not cooled down.
- Charging temperature should be between 0°C and 40°C.
Battery Recycling
Do not dispose of batteries as regular trash. Familiarize yourself with local disposal methods and dispose of them according to special requirements.
Know the Remote Control
This gravity-sensing controller allows you to hold it in one hand and tilt it for drone direction control. For first-time users of the gravity controller, please read the manual and operate carefully. Opening Battery Cover: The battery compartment is at the controller's bottom. Open it by sliding the upper cover forward and the lower cover backward firmly. Loading Batteries: Open the battery compartment cover and insert two AAA batteries (not included). Ensure battery polarity matches the symbols inside the compartment. Do not mix new and old batteries or different types of batteries. Diagram showing how to open the controller battery cover and insert AAA batteries. Diagram illustrating the pairing process with joystick movements. Calibrate the drone if it cannot ascend vertically. Press the "Calibration" button; the drone's indicator light will start flashing. Release all buttons when the drone's indicator light turns solid. Calibration is complete. Ensure calibration is performed on a horizontal and steady surface. Diagram showing the calibration button and process. When you release the left joystick (throttle) after ascending or descending, the drone will hover at a certain height. Diagram showing the drone hovering after joystick release.

Remote Control Functions
Fly with Remote Control
1. One-Key Start
Before flying, hold the controller horizontally. Press the "Calibration" button for routine calibration. Press the "One-key Start" button, then gently push the joystick forward to fly the drone.
Diagram showing the "One-key Start" button.
2. Joystick Controls
Use the left joystick to control flight altitude and left/right turns. Use the right joystick to control forward, backward, left, and right sideward flight.
Diagram illustrating left joystick controls: Ascend, Descend, Turn Left, Turn Right. Diagram illustrating right joystick controls: Forward, Backward, Left Sideward, Right Sideward.
3. Gravity Sensor Control
Tilt the controller to control the drone flying forward/backward or left/right sideward.
When you hold the controller upwards and it faces directly ahead, the drone will fly backward towards your position. Operate carefully in this state to avoid accidents.
Diagram showing gravity sensor control by tilting the remote.
In case of emergency, press the "Stop" button immediately.
Fly with APP
1. Wi-Fi Connection
- Scan the QR code to download and install the control software 'EACHINE FLY'. It is supported on Google Play and iOS.
- Turn on the drone; its lights will flash. Turn on your mobile phone's Wi-Fi and connect to 'UAV' as shown in the figure.

Notes on Ground Effect
Attention: When the drone is within 30cm from the ground, it can be affected by the blade vortex, becoming unstable. This is known as "ground effect." The lighter the drone, the greater this effect will be.
FAQ
Problems and Solutions
- Problem: Not connecting with the drone battery. Cause: Battery not connected correctly. Solution: Connect the drone battery in the right way.
- Problem: Control failure. Cause: Too strong wind force. Solution: Do not fly in windy days. Strong winds affect drone performance and control.
- Problem: Fail to ascend. Cause: Rotation speed of main blades is too slow, or the drone battery is not fully charged. Solution: Push up the throttle joystick. Please fully charge the drone.
- Problem: Landing. Cause: The throttle stick is pulled down too fast. Solution: Pull down the throttle stick slowly to perform a smooth landing.
- Problem: Out of control. Cause: Beyond the effective controlling distance. Solution: Ensure that the drone is within 30 meters of the effective flying distance.
