Keep LiPo batteries away from children and animals.
Never charge the LiPo battery that has ballooned or swelled .
Never charge the LiPo battery that has been punctured or damaged.
After a crash, inspect the battery pack for the sign of damage. Discard in
accordance with your country’s recycling laws.
Never charge the LiPo battery in a moving vehicle.
Never overcharge the LiPo battery.
Never leave the LiPo battery unattended during recharging.
Do not charge LiPo batteries near ammable materials or liquids.

Protect your LiPo battery from accidental damage during storage and
transportation. (Do not put battery packs in pockets or bags where they can short

Do not attempt to disassemble or modify or repair the LiPo battery.
LiPo batteries are dierent from conventional batteries in that their chemical contents
are encased in a relatively lightweight foil packaging. This has the advantage of
signicantly reducing their weight, but does make them more susceptible to damage if
roughly or inappropriately handled. As with all batteries, there is a risk of re or

Press the button and the camera will start recording, when the recoding is nished please press
the button again to save it. If you don't want to save it please power o the TX. Please check the
battery in both TX and X4, when the battery is low, it can’t record.
15. The video is not being saved to the SD card.
Always stop the video recording function and power o the battery rst, after that you can take
out the SD card.
Always turn o the power to the TX before inserting or removing the SD card. This allows the
memory to be properly saved to the SD card.
16. The transmitter will not power on.
Check the battery connection.
If the transmitter battery power is low, you will need to replace with new AA batteries .

When the SD card is properly formatted in the TX, it will use special formatting that splits the

the the LCD on the TX displays “Full”.
Noted that when SD card is formatted in the TX, you must reformat it if you intend to use it in any
other device. If you intend to use the SD card in another device, rst save any les to your

2.5 Proper Operation
For safety only use the included HUBSAN spare parts for replacement.
2.6 Always Be Aware of the Rotating Blades
When in operation, the main and tail rotor blades will be spinning at high speed. The blades are
capable of inicting serious body injury or property damage.
Be careful to keep your body and loose clothing away from the blades. Never take your eyes o the
X4 or leave it unattended while it is turned on. Stop operating immediately if the X4 ies out of your
view. Once landed, immediately turn o the X4 and transmitter.

4) If the X4 still drifts to one side, add a few sheets of
paper (the number of sheets will vary depending on
the amount of drift) to the side of the X4 that drifts.
The paper will help counterbalance and create a

11. The arm of the X4 separates after a hard landing or crash.
This is specially designed to absorb impact from hard crashes.
Simply force the arms to snap back into the joint position as
shown.
12. One or more motors stop working.
(1) Replace the motor.
(2) Resolder any broken motor connections.
(3) Spin the propellers to see if it jammed the motors, make sure the propellers can spin normally.
4.2 Safety Advisory Notice
Always partially charge your LiPo battery before storage. LiPo batteries retain the power over a
reasonable period; It is not normally necessary to recharge stored LiPo batteries unless stored for
periods longer than 3-6 months.
If your LiPo battery has been over-discharged, it will not be possible to recharge it again.
