BASIC FLIGHT MANEUVERS
AUTO AND MANUAL FLIGHT MODES
NOTE:
Once a stunt has been initiated, DO NOT adjust Throttle or press any other controls until the stunt has been completed.
CAUTION!
The drone should be flying at least 6 feet in the air with a minimum clearance of 6 feet in all directions before
attempting stunt functions.
FLIP IN 4 DIRECTIONS
1 Bring the drone to a mid-air hover without flying in any
direction. Remove finger from the RIGHT thumb stick.
2 While hovering, tap and hold the STUNT button.
3 Then quickly tap the RIGHT thumb stick in the direction
you want the drone to flip.
BARREL ROLL LEFT OR RIGHT
While flying forward (or reverse), tap the STUNT button.
Stunt Button
AUTO mode is best for new
pilots. Begin by pressing the
LAUNCH button for takeoff.
The drone will hold its altitude,
and gradually fly up or down
when you press up or down on
the left thumb stick.
MANUAL mode is better for
experienced pilots. When the left
thumb stick is pushed all the way
up the drone will spin its motors
as fast as it can while maintaining
stability, and when the left thumb
stick is pushed all the way down
the motors will stop spinning
completely.

FAILSAFE GUIDE

your new skills in real life.
When the drone turns
upside down, the motors
will stop spinning.
When the drone goes out of
range of the controller, it will
automatically land itself in
its current position. If the
controller comes back in to
range before the drone
lands, it is possible to cancel
this automatic landing by
pressing up on the throttle.
When the drone's battery is
at 10% or less, the LEDs on
the drone will begin to blink
rapidly, and a tone is played
continuously on the
controller until the
controller and drone are
turned of f.
When the drone's
battery is depleted, the
drone will automatical-
ly land itself in its
current position. This
automatic landing
cannot be interrupted
with the controller.
If the drone detects that no
input has been received by
the controller for 15
seconds, the drone will
automatically land itself in
its current position..

STEP ELEVEN
Press on each propeller and secure each with type B screws. Ensure that the
green propeller blades are attached to the front of the drone and the black
propeller blades at the back. Take note of the order of the propellers (B,A,A,B.)
The drone will not fly if the propellers are in the wrong place.
STEP TEN
Attach the four blade guards by pushing the two locator pins into the two holes
around the gear housing. Make sure the pins are fully in and the guard ridges are
flush with the gear housing.
STEP NINE
Place the battery tray over the flight controller board cover and secure it with 6
type A screws. When tightening the screw, ensure that they are firm but not overly
tight, as over tightened screws will cause the plastic to strip and the screw will
become loose.
STEP EIGHT
Attach the bottom cover to the main body and ensure none of the wires
are protruding.
STEP SEVEN
Attach the four arm covers to the main body ensuring no wires protrude from
the sides. You must connect the hook of the arm covers to the motor housing
before easing into place. The front arm covers are curved and contain the green
LED windows. The red LED covers go in the rear.
STEP SIX
Press the 4 LED’s into the drone arms and ensure that the green LED’s are
attached to the curved front arms and red LED’s are connected to the rear
straight arms. Try not to move the wires connecting the LEDs too much, as the
soldered connections to the flight board are very delicate.
STEP FIVE
Neatly tuck the motor wires into the guides in the center of each arm of the drone.
Then guide the wires around the post and carefully tuck away any remaining wire
without crimping it.
STEP FOUR
Slide each of the motors into the motor casing until the gears mesh properly with
the large gears. Take your time to check each motor before moving onto the next.
