IMPORTANT: YOU ONLY HAVE A FEW
SECONDS AFTER THE LIPO BATTERY IS
PLUGGED IN TO PLACE DRONE ON A
LEVEL SURFACE FOR PROPER CALIBRA-
TION. IF DRONE DOES NOT RISE TO A
STABLE HOVER OR FLIES ERRATICALLY,
REPEAT STEPS 1 THROUGH 6.
CAUTION: NEVER APPROACH DRONE
WHILE THE PROPELLER BLADES ARE
STILL SPINNING. THROTTLE DOWN UNTIL
THE BLADES STOP THEN TURN OFF
REMOTE BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO
HANDLE DRONE.

Drone responsiveness may be adjusted on the
Controller to match your flying skills.
There are three choices:
1. BEGINNER – 2. INTERMEDIATE – 3. ADVANCED
It is best to start in
BEGINNER MODE 1 until you
have mastered flying. Flight sensitivity can be adjusted
before or during flight.
IMPORTANT: Advanced Mode 3 is a
performance flight setting for OUTDOOR USE
ONLY. Blade guards and camera module
MUST BE REMOVED for proper flight opera-
tion in Mode 3.

2 - INTERMEDIATE
3 - ADVANCED
1 Turn OFF Remote Control.
2 Disconnect the LiPo battery connectors hanging
out from the back of the drone.
Pull connectors, not wires.
3 Reconnect battery connectors.
4 Quickly place Drone on FLAT LEVEL
SURFACE.
5 Turn Remote Control ON.
6 Slowly push remote control THROTTLE
STICK
UP until Drone lifts into the air.
t When launching the Drone, face the same direction as the Drone. Green blades should be in front.
t Practice launching, hovering and landing before attempting to learn other moves.
t Flying 2 to 3 feet above the ground will reduce ground turbulence and make flying easier.
t When first attempting to fly in different directions, start by tapping the Direction stick until you have a
feel for it. Always move the controls slowly until you become comfortable operating the drone.
t Once you’ve mastered flying in directions, practice Rotational controls. Spinning and keeping Drone
facing the same direction you are facing makes flying easier and more intuitive.
t Stay 2 to 3 feet away from walls and ceilings as Drone will be drawn towards them if you fly too
close.
t If propeller blades come in contact with another object or you crash, throttle down immediately to
prevent possible or further damage.
t If anything prevents Drone’s blades from spinning or they become jammed, THROTTLE DOWN
IMMEDIATELY. Do not attempt to fly until obstruction has been removed and damage fixed.
t Should something prevent Drone’s blades from spinning, Drone may AUTO SHUTDOWN. LiPo
battery will need to be unplugged then reconnected to restore flying power.
t If the Drone flies too far away, beyond the control range of the remote, the Drone will
AUTO-LAND to prevent the Drone from flying away out of control.

If Drone drifts in any direction while hovering (and you are not pressing the Direction stick),
you may need to make trim adjustments. Safely land Drone on a level surface. Press the
recommended Trim button once as described below. Launch the Drone back into the air and
attempt another still hover. If Drone continues to drift, repeat the process until a still
hover is achieved:
TRIM ADJUSTMENTS
NOTE: THE REMOTE WILL BEEP/FLASH 3 TIMES WHEN TRIM ADJUSTMENT
IS SET TO THE NEUTRAL POSITION (THE MIDDLE OF THE TRIM RANGE) AND
BEEP ONCE WHEN IT HAS REACHED THE END OF IT’S RANGE.
REMOVING & REATTACHING
CAMERA MODULE
The Camera Module is easily removed to improve flight
performance. Simply unplug the camera connector and slide the
