6.2 Battery Maintenance
Remove the battery from the drone after use. Store the battery in a dry and well-ventilated place
with an ambient temperature ideally between 18 °C and 25 °C.
Fully charge the battery before long-term storage.
Please avoid excessive charging and frequent discharging the battery.
Before first use, fully charge and discharge to 70 %, and repeat 3 to 5 times. This will prolong the
battery’s life.
7. Flying Your Drone
7.1 Synchronizing the Remote Control and Drone
1. If you have not done so, install the charged battery into your quadcopter. Also, install the batteries
in the remote control.
2. Place the drone on a flat and non-slippery surface.
3. Push and hold the throttle stick completely downwards.
4. Switch on your remote control by sliding the on-off switch to the on position. Synchronizing has
been completed when the power LED burns steadily.
WARNING
If synchronizing has failed –if the power LED is still blinking –or if the
drone is beyond control, switch off both the drone and the remote
control, and start the synchronizing procedure again.
If the power LED blinks slowly, please recharge the drone’s battery.
7.2 Flight Training
REMARK
This drone is a fast-reacting aircraft, which requires only slight stick
movements to manoeuvre. Remember that crashing your drone can
cause injury, and damage the aircraft and surrounding objects beyond
repair.
It is therefore very important to first practice and clock up enough
“flying hours” to gradually increase your flying skills. Slowly lift the
drone and try to hover 50 to 60 cm above the ground. Land the drone
carefully.
The next step is to try and move your drone left/right and
forward/backward.
Repeat these exercises until you have mastered them.
7.3 Manoeuvring the Drone
Calibrating the Drone
Switch on the transmitter. Pull and hold the left and right cyclic sticks to the lower left corner.
After 3 seconds, the LED on the drone will flash, meaning calibration is successful.
