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 with screwdriver counter-clockwise and pull out the propellers, install the propellers correspondingly and screw on clockwise.

Note: When installing or dismantling the propeller, please do not exert force on the propeller to avoid distortion.

4. Battery Installation of Drone

A. Press the button on battery box, push the battery backward to the end and take it out upward.

B. Take out the battery upward.

Battery Instructions

Safety Precautions

There is a certain risk when using lithium battery. It may cause fire, body injury or property loss. Users must be aware of the risks and take full responsibility of using battery improperly.

If battery leakage occurs, please avoid contacting your eyes and skin with electrolyte. Once it happens, please wash your eyes with clean water and seek medical care immediately.

Please remove the plug immediately if you sense any peculiar smell, noise or smog.

Battery Charging

Please use the charger from original factory to ensure your safe usage.

Do not charge dilatant or outworn battery.

Do not over charge battery. Please unplug the charger once fully charged.

Do not charge the battery next to inflammables, such as carpet, timber floor or wood furniture or on the surface of electro-conductive objects. Please always keep an eye on the battery when charging.

Do not charge battery which has not cooled down yet.

The charging temperature should be between 0°C to 40°C.

Battery Recycling

Do not dispose the battery as daily rubbish. Please familiarize yourself with the local garbage disposal method and dispose it according to the special requirement.

Know the Remote Control

Different from ordinary remote control, this is a gravity sensing controller, which enables you to hold it in one hand and tilt it for drone direction control. For novice users trying gravity controller for the first time, please read the user manual and operate it carefully.

1. Battery Installation of Controller

Opening Battery Cover: The battery box is located at the controller bottom, open the battery cover by sliding upper cover forward and lower cover backward hard.

Loading Batteries: Insert two AAA batteries (not included).

Notes: 1. Ensure the polarity symbols on the batteries match the symbols inside the battery compartment. 2. Do not mix new and old batteries. 3. Do not mix different types of batteries.

2. Pairing Remote Control With Drone

Turn on the power of the drone; put the drone on plain ground; check whether the indicator lights of remote control and LED lights of drone flash.

Push the joystick (throttle) to the top and then pull back to the bottom. After the sounds of "Di-Di", the flash of indicator lights of remote control and LED lights of drone will turn to constant lights, which means the pairing completes.

3. Calibration of Remote Control

Calibrate the drone when it cannot vertically ascend. Press "Calibration" button ⚙️ and the indicator light of drone starts flashing. Then release all the buttons till the flash of the drone's indicator light turns to constant light. Thus, the calibration completes. Ensure the whole process of calibration is operated under horizontal and steady circumstances.

Precautions For Gravity Sensing Remote Control

Hold the controller in horizontal position without any tilt before starting your flight.

Keep the drone at least 3 meters away from you for the first time you try gravity sensing controller.

When you hold the controller upwards and it faces to you right ahead, the drone will fly backward towards your position. Please operate it carefully in this state to avoid being hit by drone and/or other accidents.

In case of emergency, press "Stop" button ❌ immediately.

Fly with Remote Control

1. One-Key Start

Before flying, hold the controller in horizontal position.

Press "Calibration" button ⚙️ for routine calibration.

Press "One-key Start" button ▶️, push the joystick forward lightly to fly the drone.

2. Joystick Controls

Use the joystick to control the flight altitude and left/right turn.

Left Joystick: Ascend ⬆️, Descend ⬇️, Turn Left ↩️, Turn Right ↪️.

3. Gravity Sensor Control

Tilt the controller to control the drone flying forward/backward or left/right sideward.

Forward ➡️, Backward ⬅️, Left Sideward ◀️, Right Sideward ▶️.

4. Hover

When you release the left joystick (throttle) after the ascent/descent action, the drone will hover at a certain height.

Fly with App

1. Wifi Connection

Use your phone to scan the QR code, download and install the control software: 'EACHINE FLY'. Google Play, Android and iOS are all supported.

Turn on the drone and the lights will flash; turn on your mobile phone to connect WIFI (UAV), as shown in figure.

2. APP Interface Instruction

Controls: Settings ⚙️, Photo ?, Video ?, Document (Album/Video), Speed Control (30%/60%/100%), Show/Hide, Gravity Sensor Control, Steering Wheel, Headless Mode, One-key Start ▶️, One-key Landing, Camera Reset, Wi-Fi, Emergency Stop ❌, Flight Joystick (throttle), Left/Right Side Fly, Fine-tuning, Left/Right Rotation, Fine-tuning, 3D Display, One-key Reset.

3. Basic Flight

Use the left joystick to control the flight altitude and turn left/right, and the right joystick to control the forward, backward, left and right side flight directions.

4. Take Selfies

In the Altitude Hold mode, you can control the drone to turn the camera back to itself, then click the camera button on the screen to take selfies.

5. Gravity Sensor Control (App)

Click to enter Gravity Sensor Control, put your right hand thumb on the right joystick, and move the phone towards any direction for remote control.

6. Fine-Tuning

If the drone rotates or yaws, click the fine-tuning to the reverse direction of yawing till the yaw is adjusted and the drone stays oriented at the control.

7. One-Key Reset

When deviating from course due to crash, please control the drone back to a horizontal plane and click "One-key reset" for gyro calibration and take-off again.

Notes: Attention: When the drone is within 30cm from the ground, it will be affected by the blade vortex made by itself and become unstable. This is "ground effect". The lighter the drone is, the greater the effect will be.
