WARNINGS AND SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
All users must read this manual in entirety before
operating the drone. Improper installation, ying in
bad conditions or unfamiliar operation by the user
may cause crashing, damage to the aircraft, property
damage or personal injury; none of which Force1RC
can be held liable for.
1. Fly a safe distance from people, animals and obstacles
During ight, this drone may change in speed
or sensitivity and may cause potential hazards.
Use common sense and stay away from crowds,
buildings, trees, power lines, and other hazards.
Avoid using the drone under weather conditions such
as rain, storms or wind and snow. Make sure others
around you are aware you are operating this drone.
2. Keep away from humidity
The drone is composed of electronic and
mechanical parts. Avoid exposing the drone to
humidity, water and moisture. Doing so may cause
damage and cause the drone to malfunction and
cause an accident.
3. Only use included parts and genuine replacement parts
Only use original parts for replacement and
modication to ensure ight safety. Operate the drone
within range allowed by product function. Use of
unapproved parts will void any warranty. Do not use the
drone beyond the scope of local laws and regulations.
4. Fly with experienced users
Beginner drone pilots should be supervised or
guided by an experienced drone user or adult
if they are a minor. Learning how to pilot a drone
successfully takes time and practice.
5. The pilot should never operate the drone under
the inuence of alcohol/drugs.
Never operate the drone if you are feeling fatigued
or in poor mental state. Doing so increases your
risk for an accident, causing property damage or
personal injury.
6. Store in a cool, dry place
The drone is made of plastic, metal and electronic
components. To avoid deformation, overheating
and damage, store it out of direct sunlight and in a
cool dry place.
Note: According to Part 15 or the FCC Rules, this device
has been tested and meets the limits or Class B digital
devices. These limits are designed to provide reasonable
protection against harmful interference from residential
equipment. This equipment generates, uses, and can
radiate radio frequency energy, and if it is not installed
and used in accordance with the instructions, it may
cause harmful interference to radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will
not occur in a particular installation. If this device
does cause harmful interference to radio or television
reception, you can conrm by turning the device on
and o. It is recommended that users try to correct the
interference by one or more of the following measures:
• Relocate or adjust the receiving antenna.
• Increase the distance between the equipment and
the receiver.
• Please note that changes or modications not
expressly approved by the responsible party may
invalidate the user’s operating authority
7. Keep this manual. This manual contains important
information, keep it for future reference.
8. The pilot is solely responsible for ensuring this drone
won’t cause injury or property damage. If the drone
is coming towards you move out of its path.
9. During ight or landing keep a distance of 1-2
meters from the drone to avoid injuries caused by
collision of the drone with face or body. Tie hair back,
wear a hat or hood to avoid hair entanglement
with the propellers.
10. Force1 and resellers or distributors of this drone
are not responsible for physical loss, damage or
injury caused.
11. This product contains small parts. Keep out of
reach of children to avoid suocation or choking by
swallowing parts.
12. Keep away from motors and propellers to avoid
injury of pinching, burns or cuts. The motors do heat
up when used.
13. Do not bring the drone close to your ears as it may
damage hearing.

UFO5000 | USER MANUAL 3
14. In order to comply with the command of the
magnetic environment requirements of the Aviation
Radio Administration and related departments,
stop using drones when there are control orders
during the control period in certain areas.
15. Always y the drone back when the battery is
running low.
BATTERY CARE
1. Lithium battery life will decrease over long periods
of time. To extend lifetime of the battery, keep 20%
of the power remaining in the drone battery rather
than completely draining it.
2. The battery may be warm to the touch after use
and charging. The battery will fail if not given time
to cool down between uses and charging.
3. Do not short circuit the battery, put it in re, leave in
high temperatures or direct sunlight and do not put
it under pressure to avoid explosion.
4. Do not immerse in water or allow the battery to get
wet. Keep the battery out of reach of children and
pets.
5. If the battery is not going to be used for a period of
time, remove the battery from the drone to prevent
potential damage or battery leakage and store in
a re-safe lithium battery bag.
6. The battery charger should be plugged into the
designated power source with the same product
identication.
7. Charge the battery under supervision of an adult
and keep it away from combustibles. Keep the
battery in sight while charging. Store in a reproof
bag for lithium batteries.
8. Install batteries in the correct orientation. Incorrect
installation of the battery may cause a short circuit.
9. Use the USB charging cable that comes with the
drone to charge the battery.
10. Do not mix lithium-ion batteries with other types of
batteries.
11. Do not over charge the battery or leave it on the
charger for extended periods.
12. Do not charge batteries that are damaged,
cracked, swelling or discolored and safely discard
immediately. Check battery connections after
every crash. Do not put batteries in household
trash. Contact your local waste agency for more
information.
13. Remove the drone battery from the drone before
charging it.

USB into your preferred charging source. 2. When the battery is charging, the USB indicator
light will be on. When the battery is fully charged,
the USB indicator light will turn o. The battery
charging time is approximately 120 minutes.
Drone Battery USB Charging Cable Charging Sources
• Take-out and put the battery in the correct way
• Non-rechargeable batteries cannot be charged
• Dierent types of batteries or old and new batteries
cannot be mixed
• Only batteries of the same model or equivalent to
the recommended model can be used
• Insert the battery with the correct polarity
• Exhausted batteries should be removed from the

same rotational direction; place on the correct
motor pin, and apply pressure until it snaps into
place (Fig.4)
Note: Installing the wrong propeller in the wrong
quadrant will cause the drone to ip over, not lift or
go in circles on the ground when trying to take o.
