Descending
When ascending or descending,
push the control lever forwards;
the rotating speed of the main
rotor will increase and the
helicopter will ascend.
When the throttle stick is pulled
backwards the helicopter will
descend as the rotating speed
of the main rotor will reduce.
When ying, pushing the left/
right control lever to the left will
cause the nose of the helicopter
to turn left.
During ight, when pushing the
control lever forwards, the nose
of the helicopter will move
downward and the helicopter
will travel forwards.
During ight, when pulling the
control lever backwards, the
nose of the helicopter will rise
and the helicopter will travel
backwards.
When ying, pushing the left/
right control lever to the right will
cause the nose of the helicopter

8. OPERTATION
Place the helicopter carefully on the ground, turn the power switch
ON and ensure that the onboard LED is ashing. Stand behind the
helicopter with the helicopter’s tail pointing towards you. Ensure
the transmitter’s throttle is closed and then turn the transmitter ON.
When the transmitter’s LED illuminates, you are ready for take off!
CAUTION
7. PREPARATION BEFORE FLYING
If the transmitter light
continues to ash, it means
that the transmitter batteries
are running out of power
and consequently will need
replacing before ying.

.
Please be sure to carry out the initial binding of the helicopter to the transmitter by following the steps
below
1. Firstly, please switch OFF the power to the helicopter and transmitter.
2. Place the helicopter on a at surface and switch it ON. The LED on the helicopter’s receiver will
illuminate indicating that it is trying to nd a transmitter to bind with.
3. Ensure the throttle on the transmitter is in its lowest position (stick pulled back) and then switch
ON the transmitter. An LED light will indicate the transmitter is ON. A buzzer will send out a ‘‘di di”
sound to show that a bind is in progress. When this process (which is automatic) is complete, the
sound will stop. DO NOT switch off either the helicopter or transmitter, as this will lose the binding
process and you will need to begin again.
4. The helicopter is now ready for use, assuming it has not been turned OFF after this process.
(Simply repeat the steps each time the helicopter is switched ON).
5. When using multiple helicopters at the same time, ensure each one is bound in turn, but DO NOT
switch any OFF.

helicopter with the aerial camera.
Switch on the helicopter
and the aerial camera
Switch ON the transmitter and
complete the necessary steps
required to bind the helicopter as
outlined on the previous page.
By pressing the photograph button, the camera will
receive a transmitted signal indicated by the LED
ashing and take a photograph.
If the photograph button is pressed for more than 1.5
seconds, the LED will glow signifying the activation of
VIDEO mode.
Pressing the photograph button again whilst recording
will FINISH the recording.

12. INDEPENDENT USE OF THE DIGITAL CAMERA
Flick the power switch to the “ON” position. The camera LED will ash 3
times and then stop. This means that the camera is ready and in ‘Standby
Mode’. You are now able to press the shutter button and take a picture.
Pressing this button will cause the LED to ash once, indicating a picture
has been taken. If you hold down the shutter button for more than 1.5
seconds, the video mode will be activated and a video will start recording.
During the course of recording, if you press the shutter button once more,
the video will stop recording. Should you need to change the date or time,
please modify the ‘Time’ text document located in the root directory of the
Micro SD card and edit it such that the current date and time are correct.
Please remember that only when the text le is saved will the date/time be
updated before restarting the camera.

13. READING THE AERIAL PHOTOGRAPHY DATA & CHARGING
Disconnect the included USB cable from the helicopter and connect
to a standard USB port on a PC. In a moment you can nd the new
“removable disc” in the “My Computer” directory. Double click it to
read the data inside the aerial camera. Please copy the aerial
photography data from the disk to the computer and then browse to
it. When the data has nished copying, please do not remove it from
the USB port immediately as the USB port also charges the camera.
When charging is underway, the LED indicator on the camera will
ash and then glow solidly when the camera is fully charged.
Should you be unable to receive any real-time video, please consult the following list
1) Check if the 2.5mm video transmitter plug has been inserted into the AV output jack on the aerial
camera.
2) Check if the red LED on the transmitter is ON or not. If it is not ON, it means the plug is not
connected correctly in the AV port. Unplug and then re-connect. Should the problem not be
solved by this, then the aerial camera could have insufcient power, in which case it will need
charging.
3) Check if the transmitting frequency on the video transmitter is the same as the receiving requency.
4) If unable to receive any images, this may be due to the DIP switch having been set
incorrectly.

Fix the video transmitter on the tail boom and
then insert the 2.5mm plug into the AV output jack
of the aerial camera. Switch on the camera. This
time the red LED on the video transmitter will be
ON, meaning it has started working.
Push up and down the DIP switch on the
transmitter to set the frequency. For this
helicopter, there are four transmitting requencies
available. Set the DIP switch as shown in the
illustration.
The DIP switches on the back of the transmitter
are for setting the receiving frequency. Ensure
you match the receiving and transmitting
frequencies. If the transmitter is set to Channel
A, then so too must the receiver.
