is blinking.

c. Note: Please make sure your smartphone is fully charged before use. An
active Bluetooth connection will use extra battery power.
d. Start the Petrone app on your smartphone.
e. Pair your smartphone with the Petrone by following the onscreen instruc-
tion. If there is more than one Petrone, you will have to select the one you
control.

- 6 -
f. When the device connected to the Petrone, the green LED light on the back
of the Petrone will stay on, instead of blinking.
g. Note: It is best to check for the latest  rmware for your Petrone after con-
necting.

Sec on 3. Flight Mode
1. Pre-flight inspection
Before each  ight, check that the Petrone is in good condition.
To remove or replace a component, please see the Maintenance section.
a. Check the propellers.
i. Check the condition of the propellers.
Bent or heavily damaged propellers can cause trouble with lifting off or
controlling the Petrone. Minor chips and scratches may be okay.
ii. Check the direction of rotation for the propellers.
Check the arrow marks on the propellers to ensure they are all installed
properly.

- 7 -
iii. For proper lift, the propellers need to be arranged as shown below.
b. Check the motors.
After the Petrone is enabled for liftoff, gently apply some vertical accelera-
tion so that all the propellers turn without leaving the ground. If one turns
slower than the rest or does not turn at all, that motor bracket may need to
be replaced.
2. General flying control
Practicing with the Simulator is recommended to help learn how to control the
Petrone.
The default controls are for the Joystick mode which gives you control of two
joysticks on your smartphone. How fast the Petrone moves and turns depends
on how far the joysticks move from their neutral center positions. Settings for
sensitivity and handling can also be adjusted in the app.
The left joystick handles vertical controls (moving up and down) and orientation
(turning left and right).
The right joystick handles movement based on the direction the Petrone is
facing (forward, back, left, and right).
