FLIGHT OPERATION GUIDE
When operating the Drone, it is important for new Pilots to ensure that the Drone’s
heading is facing away from you.
THE TRANSMITTER HAS TWO CONTROL STICKS, LEFT STICK (THROTTLE/YAW) AND RIGHT
STICK (PITCH/ROLL).
LEFT STICK
The Left Stick is known as the Throttle. This controls the Drone’s Elevation and Yaw.
RIGHT STICK
The Right Stick is also known as the Elevator/Aileron. This controls the forwards and
backwards (Pitch) movement and the left and right (Roll) movement of the Drone.

FLIGHT MODES
The Drone features a number of Flight Modes and settings.
SPEED MODES
There are 3 Speed modes on the Theta Drone. They can be cycled through on the
transmitter by pressing the Speed Mode Button. Each mode is indicated by an
increasing series of beeps.
MODE 1-BEGINNER MODE
This is the default operating mode that the Theta Drone initialises in. Please ensure that
you use this mode in a large open space with no obstacles. The sensitivity is very low
and is suitable for beginner pilots. It is less responsive and more forgiving.
MODE 2-INTERMEDIATE MODE
To enable this mode, press the Speed Mode Button ONCE. The Transmitter will beep
twice indicating you are in Intermediate Mode. This mode is more responsive and flies
faster.
MODE 3-PRO MODE
To enable this mode, press the Speed Mode Button TWICE. The Transmitter will beep
three times indicating you are in Pro Mode. This is the most responsive and fastest
mode the Drone can operate in.
This is only recommended for pilots with experience flying the Drone.

HEADLESS MODE
Headless Mode allows you to control the Drone relative to its direction from the take-o
location.
This means you can fly the drone without worrying which direction it is facing.
Before you use Headless Mode, ensure the Drone’s Direction/Heading is facing away
from the pilot/operator and you calibrate the drone using the following steps:
CALIBRATION:
1. PushtheLeftThrottle/YawStickandtheRightPitch/RollSticktothebottomleftand
holdfor2secondsuntilyouseetheLEDindicatorlightsonthedronestarttoash
rapidly.
2. ReleasethesticksandwaitfortheDroneLEDstostopashing.
3. TheDroneLEDswillstopashingindicatingthatthecalibrationhasbeencompleted.
To enable Headless Mode simply press the Headless Mode Button on the Transmitter.
To avoid confusion, you should ensure the controls are correct from take-o. You should
arm the Drone while you are standing behind it, so that both you and Drone are both
facing in the same direction. Failure to do this will result in incorrect control.
Tip: Headless Mode can be turned on while in flight.
