Fly only in safe areas away from other people. Do not operate R/C aircraft within the vicinity of crowds or people. R/C aircraft are prone to accidents, failures due to their actions, and damage or injury occurred during pilot error or radio interference. Pilots are responsible for their actions and damage or injury occurred during the operation or as a result of R/C aircraft models.
FORBIDDEN
Special design for indoor & outdoor. Please keep it away from obstacles. This product is suitable for indoor use (wind grade should be no more than 4). Please choose a place without obstacles and keep a distance from crowds and pets. Do not play it in unsafe conditions, for instance, near heat sources, wire, or electronic power sources, to avoid damage by collision, landing, entanglement, fire, electric shock, and loss of life and property.
WARNING
Obtain the assistance of an experienced pilot. The products are suitable for ages 14 and above. At the beginning, there will be some difficulty in learning. Guidance by an experienced person is suggested when playing.

Diagram showing the transmitter controls: Left control lever (Accelerator), Right control lever, Power ON/OFF, Photographic video, Light control a key return, 3D Eversion, Forward and backward trimmer.
Speed Control
The default speed is low. Short press the button: Speed is medium. Press the button again: Speed is low. Press the button again three times: Speed is high speed.
Fancy Rotation Operating Instructions
Step 1: Position key transferred to third gear.
Step 2: Move the left throttle stick to the middle position. Until the aircraft flew more than one meter from the ground, then move the left joystick to the left or right of the middle position (throttle height can be increased or reduced). The right joystick can be used for fancy rotation.
High-speed Rotation Operation
Step 1: Position key transferred to third gear.
Step 2: Move the left throttle stick to the middle position until the aircraft flew about one meter off the ground. Move the joystick to the left or right of the middle position. Throttle height can be increased or decreased. High-speed rotation can be achieved.
Assembled Remote Controller
Open the battery cover on the back of the remote controller. Insert four #5 alkaline batteries in accordance with the instructions on the battery box. (Batteries should be purchased separately. Old and new or different types of batteries should not be mixed.)
Battery Safety Instructions
- Different types of batteries or old and new batteries should not be mixed.
- Non-rechargeable batteries cannot be charged.
- Follow the polarity correctly when installing batteries. Terminals shall not be short-circuited.
- Non-rechargeable batteries cannot be charged; rechargeable batteries can only be charged under the supervision of an adult.
- Do not overcharge rechargeable batteries. Do not leave charging unattended.
- Exhausted batteries must be taken from the remote control.
- Dispose of used batteries according to environmental protection agency guidelines.
Recharge the Quadcopter Battery
Insert the factory-equipped charger plug into the power source. The charger indicator is green. Then connect the product battery; the indicator will turn red, indicating the battery is recharging. When the indicator turns green again, the battery is fully charged. Whole recharge time will be around 30 minutes.
Preparation Before Taking Off
1. Please operate in spacious indoor or outdoor areas without rain or snow, and wind power should be below grade 4. Keep away from people, animals, and obstacles.
2. Insert the Li-po battery provided by the factory into the quadcopter. The indicator light of the quadcopter will flash. Then place the quadcopter on a leveled surface and wait for frequency adjustment.
3. Pull the acceleration lever to the lowest position, turn on the remote control's switch, push the acceleration lever to the highest, then pull it back to the lowest again. There will be a "di" sound, and the quadcopter indicator light will turn on. The frequency adjustment is completed, and it is ready for taking off.
TIPS
- When matching the signal, keep the quadcopter in a horizontal position for faster matching and a stable flight.
- Indoor flight: Please select a spacious place without obstacles, pets, and people.
- Outdoor flight: Please select a warm, sunny day with no wind or a light breeze.
- The control distance is about 60-80 meters in the air.
- Do not fly this aircraft when the fuselage plug is disconnected from the battery to avoid battery damage.
Note
- Do not fly in extreme weather. The model may be damaged in extreme heat or cold weather, which will affect flight performance.
- Do not fly in strong wind. Strong wind can limit flight or hinder your flight control. In case of strong wind, your aircraft may vanish or be damaged.
Flying Controlled and Fine Tuning
Ascend/Descend
When the left operating lever is pushed up or pulled down, the quadcopter is ascending or descending.
Turning
When the left operating lever is pushed left or right, the quadcopter turns left or right.
Forward/Backward
When the right operating lever is pushed up/down, the quadcopter moves forward/backward.
Side Fly
When the right operating lever is pushed left or right, the quadcopter moves to the left or right.
Fine Tuning
Forward/Backward Fine Tuning
When the quadcopter is hovering and deviates forward or backward, turn the forward/backward fine tuning up or down until it keeps balance.
Side-Fly Fine Tuning
When the quadcopter is hovering and deviates left or right, turn the side-fly fine tuning to the right or left until the quadcopter keeps balance.
Headless Mode
In headless mode, the aircraft's orientation is fixed relative to the pilot. If the rear of the aircraft faces south during takeoff, pulling the forward/backward/left/right joystick will make the aircraft fly back towards the south. (Vehicle chassis has ON-OFF of the back).
A Key Return
Press the return button; the vehicle will automatically fly back to the starting position at takeoff.
3D Roll Over
Press the 3D mode button; the transmitter indicator turns on. Fly the quadcopter to 2 meters high and quickly press the right control stick to its bottom in any direction and release it. The quadcopter will roll in the direction corresponding to the right control stick. Press the button again to quit.
Camera LED Status Description
- When the bottom camera kit blue indicator light is on and the red LED flashes, the vehicle has power but no SD card or the SD card is not inserted.
- Photo button on the remote control: The aircraft camera box red light blinks on the bottom, then the aircraft takes a photo and automatically stores it on the SD card.
- Video button on the remote control: The aircraft camera boxes on the bottom red light stays lit. It means the aircraft is recording video. Press the photo/video button again; the red LED on the bottom of the aircraft camera boxes will turn off, meaning the flight has exited camera status, and the video is automatically stored on the SD card.
- Power off the aircraft. Take out the SD card. Connect it to a computer via a card reader or directly to your mobile phone. Use the corresponding format player to play videos and view photos.
Common Problem and Solution Instruction
| The problem | Reason | Countermeasures |
|---|---|---|
| The indication light of the quadcopter is flashing and without reaction when operated | 1. Frequency modulation between the quadcopter and remote control is not operated correctly. 2. Insufficient battery power | 1. Refer to the Preparation for Taking Off, and re-modulate the frequency. 2. Recharge the battery |
| The quadcopter's blades turn around but the quadcopter cannot take off | 1. Insufficient battery power 2. The blades are distorted | 1. Recharge the battery 2. Replace the blades |
| The quadcopter shakes hardly | The blades are distorted | Replace the blades |
| The fine tuning buttons are all used, but the quadcopter still couldn't keep balance | 1. The blades are distorted 2. The motor doesn't work properly | 1. Replace the blades 2. Replace the motor |
| The quadcopter becomes out of control after crashing | Three-axis acceleration sensor loses its balance after crashing | Put the quadcopter on the ground for 5-10 seconds. |
