Linking Remote to Drone

Remote and Drone Linking Process

1. Turn on the drone's power switch. 2. Turn on the remote control's power switch. 3. The power indicator lights on both the remote and the drone will change from flashing to solid. You will hear two "didi" sounds, indicating the link is complete.

Diagram Description: Two screen displays show the remote link status: "Link Before" (flashing indicators) and "Link After" (solid indicators). A 2-second long press is indicated for initiating the link.

Note: Press and hold the power button for 2 seconds to initiate linking.

Calibration

Diagram Description: An illustration shows the left and right joysticks being pushed inwards simultaneously.

1. Place the drone on a flat surface with the front (camera side) facing forward. 2. Push the left throttle control stick to the bottom right corner and simultaneously push the right direction control stick to the bottom left corner. 3. The drone's indicator lights will flash and then turn solid, indicating calibration is complete.

Takeoff and Landing

Diagram Description: An image shows the drone in flight, with an overlay indicating the "One-Touch Takeoff/Landing" button.

Once the drone is unlocked (after calibration), press the "One-Touch Takeoff/Landing" button to initiate takeoff or landing.

Diagram Description: Two illustrations show the drone taking off and landing via the one-touch button.

Drone Function Demonstration

Important Note: The direction the camera faces is the front of the drone. The opposite direction is the rear.

Ascend

Diagram Description: An illustration shows the drone ascending.

Push the left joystick (throttle) upwards. The propeller speed increases, and the drone ascends.

Descend

Diagram Description: An illustration shows the drone descending.

Pull the left joystick (throttle) downwards. The propeller speed decreases, and the drone descends.

Left Flight

Diagram Description: An illustration shows the drone moving to the left.

Push the left joystick to the left. The drone's body turns left.

Right Flight

Diagram Description: An illustration shows the drone moving to the right.

Push the left joystick to the right. The drone's body turns right.

Forward Flight

Diagram Description: An illustration shows the drone moving forward.

Push the right joystick upwards. The drone moves forward.

Backward Flight

Diagram Description: An illustration shows the drone moving backward.

Push the right joystick downwards. The drone moves backward.

Left Rotation

Diagram Description: An illustration shows the drone rotating left.

Push the right joystick to the left. The drone's body turns left.

Right Rotation

Diagram Description: An illustration shows the drone rotating right.

Push the right joystick to the right. The drone's body turns right.

Special Note:

Gently push the throttle stick. When the drone lifts off the ground and is in the air, if the drone rotates or tilts in different directions, use the fine-tuning function to correct its orientation.

Fine-Tuning Mode

If the drone drifts during flight, you can use this function to adjust its flight attitude. If the drone drifts, press the fine-tuning button. You will hear a "di" sound. Within 5 seconds, move the direction joystick in the opposite direction of the drift until the drone hovers stably. If no operation is performed within 5 seconds, the fine-tuning mode will automatically exit. You can also press the fine-tuning button again to exit the mode.

• To correct backward drift: Press the fine-tuning button, then push the direction joystick forward.
• To correct forward drift: Press the fine-tuning button, then push the direction joystick backward.
• To correct left drift: Press the fine-tuning button, then push the direction joystick right.
• To correct right drift: Press the fine-tuning button, then push the direction joystick left.

? When the drone is within approximately 30cm (1 foot) of the ground, it may become unstable due to the "ground effect" caused by its own propellers. The lower the altitude, the greater the impact of ground effect.

Speed Gear (Low, Medium, High)

During flight control, the drone's speed can be adjusted according to your skill level. When the remote is powered on, it defaults to low speed. Pressing the speed button once will result in two "di" sounds, indicating medium speed. Pressing again will result in three "di" sounds, indicating high speed. Pressing again will result in one "di" sound, returning to low speed.

Diagram Description: Three remote screen displays show the speed indicators: "EASY" for Low speed, "M" for Medium speed, and "H" for High speed.

Headless Mode / One-Key Return

Headless Mode: When the drone takes off, the direction the nose is pointing is considered the front. If the drone's orientation is unclear at a certain altitude, short-press the Headless Mode button to activate it. In Headless Mode, the drone will fly in the direction you push the control stick, regardless of its orientation. Press the button again to exit Headless Mode.

One-Key Return: Continuously press and hold this button to activate the One-Key Return function. The drone will fly back towards the direction its tail was facing at takeoff. You can end the One-Key Return by moving the direction joystick in any direction.

Diagram Description: An illustration shows the Headless Mode button on the remote.

3D Flip

Once you have mastered the basic operations, you can try the exciting 3D Flip function. Fly the drone to a height of approximately 3 meters. Press the 3D Flip button; you will hear a "di" sound from the remote. Then, move the direction joystick forward, backward, left, or right to perform a flip in that direction. The drone will automatically recover its stable flight within 8 seconds after pressing the 3D Flip button if no further input is given.

Diagram Description: Four illustrations show the drone performing flips: Front Flip, Back Flip, Left Flip, and Right Flip.

360 Obstacle Avoidance Mode

If you are flying the drone in an environment with obstacles, you can activate the 360 Obstacle Avoidance feature. In this mode, the drone will detect obstacles in front, behind, left, or right and activate an emergency stop function to ensure safe flight.

(It is recommended to activate the obstacle avoidance function in indoor spaces of 6 meters x 6 meters or larger.)

Camera Angle Adjustment

Diagram Description: An illustration shows the drone with its camera. Two buttons labeled "Camera Up" and "Camera Down" are indicated.

Press the "Camera Down" button to adjust the camera angle downwards.

Press the "Camera Up" button to adjust the camera angle upwards.

Pre-Flight Environment

• Indoor Flight: Choose a spacious area free of obstacles and pets.
• Outdoor Flight: Select a warm, clear day with no wind or light wind.
• Temperature: Avoid flying in extreme temperatures (very hot or very cold) as it can affect flight performance and potentially damage the model.
• Wind: Do not fly in strong winds, as the drone may be lost or damaged.

Precautions

• Remote Range: Low battery levels in the remote or drone can affect the control range.
• Battery Level: Insufficient drone battery may lead to reduced flight altitude or difficulty taking off.
• Damage: If the drone is damaged or deformed, have it repaired promptly. Do not fly if the rotors are damaged, as this poses a safety risk.
• Storage: If the drone will not be used for an extended period, remove the batteries from the remote to prevent leakage and product damage.
• Crashes: Avoid crashing the drone from high altitudes or causing severe collisions to prevent damage or shorten its lifespan.

Troubleshooting

Diagram Description: A table lists common problems, their causes, and solutions.
