Remote Control Operating Method

Left Joystick Controls:

The left joystick controls vertical movement and yaw rotation:

• Pushing [Up Arrow] makes the drone ascend.
• Pushing [Down Arrow] makes the drone descend.
• Pushing [Left Arrow] makes the drone yaw to the left.
• Pushing [Right Arrow] makes the drone yaw to the right.

Right Joystick Controls:

The right joystick controls forward, backward, and lateral movement:

• Pushing [Up Arrow] makes the drone fly forward.
• Pushing [Down Arrow] makes the drone fly backward.
• Pushing [Left Arrow] makes the drone strafe to the left.
• Pushing [Right Arrow] makes the drone strafe to the right.

Flight Preparation and Calibration

Step 1: Prepare the Drone

• Place the drone on a level surface and turn on its power. You will see flashing red lights on the front and rear arms.
• Unfold the drone's arms and deploy the front landing gears. Note: Ensure landing gear is deployed before flight to avoid affecting performance.
• Press the buckle on the protective cover and remove it as indicated by the arrow.
• The drone will automatically enter frequency-matching mode on a level surface.
• The drone will shut down automatically after 10 minutes of inactivity.

Step 2: Power on the Remote Control

• Press and hold the power switch on the remote to turn it on. The remote will automatically pair with the drone.
• A solid green light on the remote indicates successful pairing.
• Proceed to the APP interface after selecting your language.

Step 3: Compass Calibration

• Position both joysticks at the 1 o'clock and 11 o'clock positions.
• Indicator lights will flash rapidly (White/red front, red/blue rear). The APP will display "Compass calibration".
• Note: Calibrate the compass before the first flight or after changing flight locations.

Step 4: Compass Calibration - Part 1

• Hold the aircraft horizontally and rotate it counterclockwise (360 degrees) until a beep is heard from the remote.
• The rear arm lights will turn solid pink.

Step 5: Compass Calibration - Part 2

• Hold the aircraft with the camera facing downwards and rotate it counterclockwise (360 degrees) until two beeps are heard from the remote.
• The rear arm lights will be solid or flashing white.

Step 6: GPS Search

• (Important: Do not use GPS Mode Indoors.)
• Place the aircraft on a horizontal surface.
• All drone indicator lights will flash, signifying GPS satellite search is active.
• This process may take several minutes.
• When all drone indicator lights are solid, the GPS satellite search is successful.

Note: Tall structures and large metal objects can interfere with compass and GPS accuracy. Always search for GPS signals in open areas.

Step 7: Calibrate Gyroscope

• Push both joysticks to the 7 o'clock position.
• During calibration, all drone indicator lights will flash quickly.
• Once calibrated, the front and rear lights will be solid.

Note: Ensure the aircraft is placed horizontally on a level surface for calibration. Incorrect placement may affect flight.

Step 8: Adjusting the Antenna Position

• When flying, unfold the remote controller antennas.
• Keep the antennas parallel to each other and orient their flat sides directly towards the drone.
• The direction of the remote-control antenna is critical for flight distance and image transmission quality.
• Optimal signal strength is achieved when antennas are positioned as shown in the illustration (diagram shows remote with antennas pointed towards the drone).
• Ensure the antenna is parallel to maximize signal.

Step 9: Starting / Stopping Motors

• The drone is ready for takeoff once all indicator lights are solid.
• Hold the joysticks in the 7 o'clock and 5 o'clock positions.
• Motors will start automatically. Push the left joystick upwards or use the app's one-key takeoff button to lift off.
• Note: Motors must be started before the aircraft takes off.
• To Stop Motors:
• 1. Hold the joysticks in the 7 o'clock and 5 o'clock positions again to stop the motors.
• 2. Motors will cease operation if not engaged within 10 seconds of starting.
• 3. During flight, use the left stick to land the drone. Keep the left stick pushed down until the motors stop rotating.

NOTICE: If the aircraft's LED indicators continue to flash, the GPS signal is weak. Press and hold the GPS button for 3 seconds to disable GPS mode, allowing the aircraft to take off.

NOTE: The aircraft may not have GPS signal in optional flow mode and cannot return to the takeoff point. Exercise caution during flight.
