Lithium Polymer batteries do not last forever. If your battery becomes damaged in a crash or no longer charges properly, immediately replace it with a new battery.

FLIGHT ADJUSTMENT SECTION

When you lift your Drone into the air and don’t use any of the other direction levers, your Drone should simply hover in one spot without moving in any other direction. If it doesn’t, follow these instructions to get your Drone to hover. This is called TRIMMING, and it is always needed before your Drone’s first flight.

AUTO TRIM FUNCTION

Push both control levers to the positions shown in the picture and hold them for one second. The lights on the drone will start to flash. Now the drone is recovered to its original factory settings and is ready to fly again.

HEADLESS FUNCTION

Press the Headless Button once to enter Headless Mode. The Front Red LED on the Drone will flash. To quit Headless Mode, press the Headless Mode Button again.

REPLACING BLADES/FIXING ISSUES

BLADE REPLACEMENT:

Your Drone blades are very strong, but sometimes they can get damaged during a crash. You have spare blades in the box and replacing them is as easy as simply placing a new one over the motor bar. You must always replace an A Blade with an A Blade, and a B Blade with a B Blade.

DRONE NOT LIFTING OR NOT FLYING IN THE PROPER DIRECTION:

The most common reason for a Drone not lifting or flying properly in a chosen direction is that you have hair or debris wrapped around one or more of the blades. Simply remove the debris and blade, then place the blade back on
The batteries in the Drone and/or Controller need charging or replacing
You may have knocked your Trim Button settings out of sync. Follow the instructions in the beginning of this manual to reset back to factory settings, then re-trim as needed
