Safety regulations
1. Please put smaller parts of the aircraft in the place where children can’t
reach, avoiding from accidents.
2. Power of this aircraft is adequate. Therefore, when flying for the first time,
it should push remote control’s right/left variable-speed joystick slowly,
avoiding from collisions caused by rising aircraft rapidly.
3. After flying, it should turn off remote control’s power supply and come close
to the aircraft to turn off its power supply.
4. Please don’t put battery in high-temperature and heated places(such as fire
or nearby electric heating devices).
5. When the aircraft flies, it should maintain 2-3 meters from the user or others,
avoiding from crashing into others’ head, face or body when it lands.
6. When children operate the aircraft, they should be accompanied with the
adult and guided by the adult. Ensure that the aircraft is controlled within the
range of operator’s (or instructor’s) visibility. It is convenient for controlling.
7. Non-rechargeable battery can’t charge. As installing or changing battery,
please pay attention to the polarity. Don’t use a mixture of old and new battery
or battery with different types.
8. When it isn’t used, it should turn off remote power supply of remote control
and aircraft, respectively, and take out the battery in remote control.
9. Power supply terminal can’t be short circuit.

Maintenance
1. Use clean soft cloth to clean this product frequently.
2. Avoid from exposure or heating in the sun.
3. Don’t put the toy in the water. Otherwise, it’ll damage electronic parts.
4. Please check the plug and other accessories at regular intervals. If there
is any damage, please stop using it immediately until it is repaired completely.

Ready to fly your quadcopter

1.Press the ON/OFF 2. Open battery cover, 3. Enclose battery into

power switch up. and connect battery the fuselage, after
connector with dash closing battery cover,
receiver. turn on the switch on
the bottom of aircraft.

4.Push the throttle lever to the highest position,

and then pull it back to the lowest position.
There will be one clear sound from the transmitter,
this shows that the quadcopter has entered into
the pre-fly state.

Function introduction

1.Low-voltage protection:
When four indicator lights on the bottom
of aircraft start to flicker, it means electric
quantity of the aircraft is insufficient. Please
control the aircraft to make a return voyage.

2.Over-current protection:
In the condition of rotating aircraft’s fan blade,
when being crashed or stuck, aircraft’s circuit
will conduct over-current protection.

-8-
3.Horizontal correcting function:
Place the quadcopter on a horizontal postion,
then push transmitter both left and right lever
to lowest right conner for about 2-3 second ,
indicator on the quadcopter changed from
normal lights up to quickly flashing ;After 2-3
second ,the indicator changed to normal lights,
it means the quadcopter restarted /reset
successfully.

4.3D eversion:
When you are familiar with the basic operation,
you can do some awesome& exciting tricks and
stunts! First of all,fly the aircraft to a height of
more than 3 meters, press the 3D Eversion
switch on the rear right side of the transmitter,
then push the right rudder(in any direction)
to make 360 degree flip.
3m
Tips:3D eversion goes better when battery
power is enough.

5.Throwing flight instructions:

Thanks to the 6 axis gyroscope,you can

throw the quadcopter and push the throttle
right up,it will automatically level out and
hover smoothly in the sky, This can also be
done when the quadcopter is rolling.

6.Headless function:
1. Forward definition

1. Turn on power switch of remote control.

 2. After aircraft connects with power supply, place
Front
the switch in “ON” position, adjust the direction
Left Right pointed by aircraft’s handpiece and regard it as
Read
the dead ahead in headless situation.

3. Push the accelerator’s push rod of remote

control to the highest point and pull back to the
lowest point.
When remote control pops, it indicates that
frequency modulation and forward definition have
already finished.

2. Switch to headless function and general function

1. After frequency modulation, the aircraft defaults

to general pattern. The indicator light on aircraft
is long bright state. After pressing down headless
function switch on the top left of master remote
controller for 2 seconds, remote control will give
out “DDD...”, it means that it enters into headless
state. After pressing for 2 seconds and hearing long “D”, it means that it
exits headless state.(In headless mode, four indicators on the aircraft
flicker slowly for once within four seconds)

2. In headless state, the operator has no need to 右面

recognize the position of aircraft’s headpiece, Front

operating rod.

3. Correcting forward direction

1. After aircraft crashes in headless state, if there is

deviation in head direction, it just needs to adjust
the aircraft’s direction again, pull remote control’s
accelerator and operating rod to bottom left
simultaneously. When indicator light on the
aircraft flickers for slow three seconds,it means
that correction is done.

Change battery of quadcopter

1.Push the on/off switch of quadcopter to OFF

position than open the battery cover.

2.Pull out the battery wire from the power port.

3.To charge battery, please insert the USB port of

provided
USB charging cable to anyone USB port of
computer.
The indicator on USB cable will light ON during
charging battery, than it will light OFF when
battery fully charged.
Caution:
When using the computer for charging,please remember to pull out the
charging cable before shutting down the computer.Take the battery cover,
and close the battery cover on the quadcopter.

4.Reconnect the battery wire to power port than

close the battery cover.

Charging time: about 130 minutes — Flying time: about 5.5 minutes!

Cautions when charging:

1.When charging, please put this product on a dried or ventilated area and
keep it far away from heat source or explosive product.
2.When charging, please remove the batteries from the quadcopter. Then
charging process should be supervised by an adult so as not to cause an
accident.
3.When finish flying, please do not charge the battery if the surface
temperature is still not cool. Otherwise it may cause a swollen battery or
even a fire hazard.
4.Please make sure that you use the original USB charging cable provided.
When the battery has been used for a long time, or appears to be swollen,
please replace them.
5.A battery when not in use for a long time will lose its charge automatically.
Charging or discharging too often may reduce the life of the battery.
