5. Product description
The "Folding Drone GPS RtF" electric quadcopter is a pre-assembled helicopter-like model aircraft with four rotors
and a built-in camera. Quadcopters are already used professionally to complete a wide range of tasks.
Theightattitudeandaltitudeofthequadcopterarestabilisedbystate-of-the-artmicroprocessor-controlledelectron-
ics with position control and acceleration sensors, as well as a GPS function. High-quality DC motors in conjunction
withaspeciallydevelopedactuatorresultinapowerfulightoperation.Thenovelcontrolsandelectronicself-stabili-
sationresultinexcellentightcharacteristics.
Italsofeaturesabuilt-incameraforlivetransmission,whichenablesyoutoythequadcopterin"FPV"mode("rst
person view"). It can also be controlledwith a smartphone. Taking images and videos is also possible.
The four rotor wings can be folded; t this means the quadcopter is particularly easy to transport.
The product is intended for use in larger enclosed spaces/halls, but it can also be used outdoors in areas without
wind or with only a slight wind. Although the built-in electronic controls (integrated gyro and GPS) can absorb minor
unwantedchangesinightattitude,theycannotbecompletelyeffective.Duetothelightweightofthequadcopter,it
reacts sensitively to wind or draughts.
The quadcopter is powered by a replaceable LiPo rechargeable battery. The LiPo rechargeable battery can be
charged using the included USB charger.
The remote control requires 4 AA batteries (not included).

7. Battery information
Batteries present numerous safety hazards. Compared with conventional NiMH rechargeable bat-
teries, LiPo/Li-ion rechargeable batteries have a high energy content. For this reason, it is essential
to comply with safety regulations to prevent the risk of a re or explosion.
Always observe the following safety information when handling batteries.
a) General information
• Keep batteries out of the reach of children. Batteries must be kept out of the reach of children.
• Donotleavebatterieslyingaround,astheypresentachokinghazardforchildrenandpets.Seekim-
mediate medical advice if a battery is swallowed.
• Batteries/rechargeablebatteriesmustneverbeshort-circuited,takenapartorthrownintore.Thismay
cause an explosion!
• When handling leaking or damaged batteries, always use suitable protective gloves to avoid burning
your skin.
• Liquids leaking from batteries are very chemically aggressive. Objects or surfaces coming into contact
with these liquids could be severely damaged. Always store batteries in a suitable location that is not
prone to damage.
• Donotattempttorechargedisposable,non-rechargeablebatteries.Thismaycauseareorexplosion!
Non-rechargeable batteries are only designed to be used once and must be disposed of properly when
they are empty. Only recharge compatible rechargeable batteries and ensure that you use a suitable
battery charger.
• If you do not plan to use the model for an extended period (e.g. during storage), remove the batteries
from the remote control to prevent them from leaking and causing damage. Also remove the recharge-
ableightbatteryfromthequadcopter.Storerechargeablebatteries/batteriesinadry,clean,coolplace
out of the reach of children.
Installasmokedetectorintheroom.Batteriespresentarehazardandmaygeneratetoxicfumes.
This applies in particular to model batteries, which are subjected to high charging/discharge currents
and vibrations.
• Always exchange the entire set of batteries in the remote control. Do not mix full batteries with half-full
ones. Always use batteries of the same type and from the same manufacturer. Never mix disposable
batteries with rechargeable batteries.
• Always ensure that the remote control batteries are inserted in the correct polarity (observe the plus/+
and minus/- symbols).
• Donotexposethechargerandtheightaccumulatoraccumulatortohigh/lowtemperaturesnortodirect
solar radiation.
• Batteriesmustnotbecomedamporwet.Thesameappliestothechargerandtherechargeableight
battery. The charger must only be used in dry, enclosed indoor areas.
Lithium rechargeable batteries (e.g. LiPo/Li-ion batteries) contain chemicals that are very sensitive to
moisture(re/explosionhazard).
