SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
The drone is a high-risk product and must be operated away from crowds. Improper assembly, damage, electronic control, or operation can lead to aircraft damage, personal injury, or unpredictable accidents. Pilots must be careful and understand their responsibility for accidents due to negligence.
- Away from obstacles and crowds: Fly the drone away from crowds, high-rise buildings, high-voltage wires, etc. Avoid flying in windy, rainy, stormy, or other adverse weather conditions to ensure the safety of pilots, the surrounding population, and property.
- Away from damp environments: The drone's interior contains sophisticated electronic components and mechanical parts. Prevent the aircraft from getting damp or wet to avoid mechanical and electronic failures.
- Safe operation: Operate the drone according to your own status and skill level. Fatigue, poor spirit, or improper operation increases the risk of an accident.
- Keep away from high-speed rotating parts: When propellers are spinning at high speed, keep the drone away from the pilot, crowds, and objects to avoid danger and damage.
- Keep away from heat: The drone is composed of metal, fiber, plastic, and electronic components. Keep it away from heat sources, direct sunlight, and high temperatures to prevent deformation.
Flight Environment Guidelines
- Fly in open areas.
- Maintain a clear line of sight with the drone.
- Fly below 197 feet (60m).
- Avoid flying over or near obstacles, crowds, high voltage power lines, trees, airports, or bodies of water.
- Do not fly near strong electromagnetic sources like power lines and base stations, as they can affect the onboard compass.
- Do not use the drone in adverse weather conditions such as rain, snow, fog, and strong wind.
BATTERY CARE
The battery is a lithium-polymer battery. Lithium batteries are delicate and vulnerable to rough handling. Mishandling can cause explosions.
Store Properly
- If the device will not be used for an extended period, remove the batteries to prevent potential leakage.
- Do not expose batteries to direct sunlight.
- Do not immerse batteries in water or allow them to get wet.
- Keep batteries out of reach of children or pets.
Use Carefully
- When charging the rechargeable battery, ensure it is done under adult supervision and kept away from flammable materials.
- Do not short-circuit or puncture the battery to avoid explosion.
- The power terminals should not be short-circuited, disassembled, or thrown into fire. Do not place the battery in high-temperature environments.
- Use only the recommended charger. Regularly check the charger for damage. Stop using if damaged until repaired.
- The charger is not a toy and should only be used indoors.
- Charge the battery before storing it. If not used for a long time, charge it at least once every 3 months to prevent permanent damage from over-discharge.
BATTERY CHARGING METHOD:
- Connect the USB cable to the drone battery, then connect it to a charging source.
- The red light indicates charging; the green light indicates a full charge. Charging time is approximately 120 minutes.
Drone Battery:
Instructions:
- Remove and insert the battery correctly.
- Non-rechargeable batteries cannot be charged.
- Rechargeable batteries require adult supervision for charging.
- Do not mix different types of batteries or old and new batteries.
- Use only batteries of the same model or equivalent to the recommended model.
- Remove the rechargeable battery from the drone before charging.
- Insert batteries with correct polarity.
- Remove depleted batteries from the drone.
- Do not short-circuit the power terminals.

Do not mix old and new batteries, or different battery types (alkaline, carbon-zinc, rechargeable). Remove rechargeable batteries before charging and remove spent batteries from the transmitter.
QUICK-START GUIDE
- Insert the drone battery and turn on the drone switch. The drone light will flash.
- Turn on the remote control. A "Di" sound will be heard, and the remote control and aircraft lights will turn on, indicating successful frequency matching.
- Push the throttle and joystick to the lower right corner simultaneously. A "Di" sound will be heard, and the aircraft lights will flash and then stay on, indicating leveling correction is complete.
- Push the throttle and joystick outward simultaneously to take off the drone.
FLIGHT CONTROLS
HOVER UP AND DOWN
Push the THROTTLE STICK up to ascend; pull it down to descend.
FLY FORWARD OR BACKWARD
Push the DIRECTION CONTROL STICK up to fly forward; pull it down to fly backward.
FLY LEFT OR RIGHT
Move the DIRECTION CONTROL STICK left to fly left; move it right to fly right.
ROTATE LEFT OR RIGHT
Move the THROTTLE STICK left to rotate left; move it right to rotate right.
TRIM ADJUSTMENTS
If the drone drifts:
- Drifting backward: Press and hold the fine-tuning button, push the right joystick forward until stable, then release.
- Drifting forward: Press and hold the fine-tuning button, push the right joystick backward until stable, then release.

FUNCTIONS
360° Flip
Long press the 360° Flip button. The remote control will beep twice. Move the direction stick up/down or left/right to perform a flip in that direction. Note: This function requires at least 7 feet of air space and cannot be used when the drone has low power.
Speed Modes
The drone has three speed gears (slow, medium, fast) for forward, backward, and lateral movement. The default is slow. Press the remote controller key to cycle through the modes: one beep for slow, two beeps for medium, and three beeps for fast. One beep returns to slow.
Remote control to control camera recording
Adjust camera direction by pressing the rotation button. Short press the button to take a picture. Press and hold for 3 seconds to start recording, and press and hold again for 3 seconds to stop recording. Note: Avoid pressing the camera adjustment button continuously to prevent signal interference.
Headless mode
In Headless Mode, the drone's orientation is fixed relative to the pilot. Press the Headless Mode button before takeoff to enter. The remote control will beep continuously, and the drone lights will flash. Press the button again to exit. The front of the drone is defined as the direction it faces before takeoff.
One key take-off/land
After calibration, press the one-key take-off/land button. The drone will automatically ascend to a certain height or descend to land.

- 360 flips: Perform flips using the joystick slider.
- Draw: Draw a flight path on the screen, and the drone will follow it.
Flight modes
- Gravity Sensing: Tilt your phone to control the drone's movement. This feature requires sufficient airspace and cannot be used in low battery states.
- 360° Flip: Slide the right joystick to the maximum in any direction to perform a flip. Requires at least 7 feet of air space and sufficient battery.
- Track Mode: Draw a trajectory on the screen, and the drone will fly along it. Requires sufficient airspace and cannot be used in low battery states.
Troubleshooting
Problem | Reasons | Solution |
---|---|---|
The flight not responding | 1. The drone enters low voltage protection. 2. The remote control has low power and its indicator will flash. |
1. Charge the aircraft battery. 2. Replace the Remote Control Batteries. |
The flight response of the aircraft is not sensitive | 1. The remote control is in low power. 2. Remote control interference from devices with the same frequency. |
1. Replace the Remote Control Batteries. 2. Change to a location without interfering signals. |
Fly sideways when hovering | Did not proceed the calibration successfully. | Proceed with calibration again (Preparation for Flight). |
The direction of forward-ing flight is detected in the headless state | Head deviation caused by multiple collisions. | Redefine the front direction (Headless mode). |
Unstable height/shaking up and down | 1. Did not proceed calibration successfully. 2. Unstable air pressure in bad weather conditions. 3. Gyroscope data disorder due to severe collision. |
1. Proceed with calibration again (Preparation for Flight). 2. Avoid flying in bad weather. 3. Proceed with calibration again (Preparation for Flight). |
