UAV flight tutorial:
Please put the UAV at the horizontal position and make sure that the blades are at the same horizontal height.
The remote controller will give a “Di” sound, the UVA light flickers quickly, the front light restores to be constant
ON and the rear light flickers slowly after we press the gyroscope calibration button on the remote controller
(Figure 1). It shows that calibration success when the remote controller gives a Di sound.

2.Gyroscope calibration operation
3.Geomagnetic calibration operation
4.Search for GPS signals:
Special note:
Put the drone on the horizontal ground, turn on the power supply, and then turn on the power
supply of the remote control. At this time, the light on the aircraft flashes rapidly, the light on
the remote control flashes, and the remote control and the drone automatically conduct frequency
synchronization. At this time, the rapid flashing of the front and rear indicator lights of the drone
turns into the long flashing of the front lights and the slow flashing of the rear lights, indicating
that the frequency synchronization is successful.
(after the second frequency alignment after calibration at the same position, the front light will be on for
long time and the rear light will flash slowly to directly enter the star search state).

Geomagnetism is easy to be interfered by other electronic equipment, which will cause the data abnormality and
affect flying. Please follow the geomagnetic calibration steps below for geomagnetic calibration before using each
time.
The remote gives a Di sound and UAV light flickers quickly after we press geomagnetic calibration
button (Figure 2) on the remote controller. Please hold the UAV on the hand and slowly rotate it for
3-5 circles clockwise in the horizontal position according to Figure 3 until the remote controller gives
a Di sound. At this time, we can slowly rotate the nosing clockwise for 3-5 circles in vertical position
(Figure 4) until the remote controller gives a Di sound. The UAV front light will be constant ON and
the rear light will flicker slowly. It shows the geomagnetic calibration success.
The UAV will start search GPS signal automatically after calibration success for about 1-3 minutes.
It shows that the star search is connected to GPS successfully after the remote controller gives a
Di sound. At this time, the rocking bar will first hit in the splayfoot direction and deblock the motor.
The rear left operation rod will be pushed upwards(Figure 5). The UAV will take off.
Please take the drone to an open area for calibration.
Please move the UAV to the open environment for use if it fails to search GPS signal or enough GPS
signal for a long time after calibration(The UAV is the center point. It cannot search enough GPS signal
if the surrounding environment is sheltered mostly.) Please pay attention to the rear light of the UAV
whether the star search is successful. It means star search success when the rear light is constant ON.
The longitude and latitude of each region are different,and new customers must calibrate onoe.For
example, the difference between Guangdong and Beijing is 28 degrees.Therefore, non-calibration shows
that forward and backward flight is not a straight line flight. Calibration is for the accuracy of the barometer's
height measurement.

Manipulation method
Operation description of remote control function:
When the left lever (accelerator) is pushed upwards, the
speed of the main wind blade increases and the aircraft
goes up.
When the left lever (accelerator) is pushed downward,
the speed of the main wind blade slows down and the
aircraft descends
When the left lever (rudder) is pushed to the left,
the aircraft head turns to the left, when pushed to
the right, and the head turns to the right.
When the right lever (rudder) is pushed up, the
aircraft goes forward.
When the right lever (rudder) is pushed down, the
aircraft goes backward.
When the right lever (rudder) is pushed to the right,
the aircraft flies to the right.
When the right lever (rudder) is pushed to the left,
the aircraft flies to the left.
Warning: When the Drone is 30 cm away from the ground, the Drone will become unstable due to the
influence of its own blade eddy current, which is called "ground effect reaction". When the height of the
Drone is lower, the effect of ground effect reaction is the largest.
The take-off speed gear of the UAV defaults to slow gear. When
the UAV flies in the air, the speed gear can be adjusted through
the knob (Figure 2). Rotate the speed knob to the right.The
remote controller "drops" twice indicates that it enters the second
gear. When the remote controller is rotated, the remote controller
"drops" three times indicates that it enters the third gear high-speed
mode. Otherwise, the left turn indicates that it enters the second
gear and the first gear low-speed.

3.One key return/signal break return/low voltage return
One-press for return End point
Starting point
One key return: We can press the one key return key (Figure 5) to start the UAV return in case of good
GPS signal (over 10 satellites). UVA will return to the take-off position in straight line and
land after startup. The remote controller will give a Di Di sound when UAV returns until
UAV lands or cancels flying for return. Its return process is consistent with break signal
return out of control. But the difference is that player can avoid the obstacles through the
rocking bar when the UAV returns and lands and the player can re-acquire the control right
after press the return key for return.
Break signal return: The flight control system will take over the control right of the UAV and control the
UAV for flight and stop at a place with signal when GPS signal is good (over 10 GPS
satellites), remote signal and APP signal are cut off for over 6 seconds after UAV
successfully records return points(star is connected to GPS before taking off) before
taking off.
Low voltage return: The indicator will flicker slowly in low voltage. At the same time, the remote controller
gives a prompt that the UAV automatically returns to 20m around the take-off point
(The UAV height and distance will be restricted to within 20m if it returns to the take-off
point in low voltage.)
