Flight preparation and switching
off of the aircraft
I. Flight preparation
Step 1: Open up the
power supply switch
of the remote control.
Step 2: Slide backward
the battery cover, and
connect the battery
connector with the
power supply
connection interface.
Step 3: Switch on the
aircraft’s switch at
the bottom area.
Step 4: Push the left lever (accelerator) to the
highest point and then reset to the lowest point.
When the indicator lights in the aircraft change
from quick flashing to the continuous lighting,
it means that the aircraft goes into the flight
standby mode.
2. Switching on the aircraft
Method 1: push the left lever (accelerator) to
the highest point and then reset to the center,
the ventilation blade of aircraft starts rotating
slowly.

-9-
BMethod 3: When the aircraft is in flight, press
the B button, the aircraft fell to the ground
and slowly closed the aircraft.
3. Switching off the aircraft
Method 1: Push the left joystick (Accelerator)
to the lowest level and stay there for 2 to 3
seconds, the aircraft can then be switched
off.
Method 2: Move the left and right joysticks
inwards in an internal loop of “8” for 1
second, and the aircraft can be switched
off.
Method 2: Move the left and right joysticks

Product features
3M
I. Low-voltage protection:
II. Overcurrent protection:
When the aircraft encounters direct impact from a foreign
object or is stuck under the circumstances in which its
blades are rotating, the electric circuit of the aircraft will
enter into the overcurrent protection mode.
III. Level calibration function:
Place the aircraft on a leveling surface and at the same
time, push both left and right joysticks to the lower right
corners and stay there for 2 to 3 seconds; the normal
light indicator on the aircraft will blink rapidly, and it will
return back to the normal status after about 2 to 3
seconds. The level calibration is successful.
When you are familiar with the basic actions, you
can proceed to explore even more exciting and risky
overturning actions. Fly the aircraft to a height of
above 3 m from the ground, press against the upper
right corner button (Overturning Button) on the remote
control and simultaneously push the right joystick to
the highest level of Front/Back/Left/Right, the aircraft
will now be executing the Front/Back/Left/Right
overturning function.
IV. 3D overturning function:
Note: When the batteries are fully charged, it will have the best overturning effect.
V. Pressure hovering height adjustment function:
After using the left joystick (Accelerator) to
control the ascending / descending flight of the
aircraft, free up the left joystick (Accelerator) and
the aircraft will still hover at that height when
the joystick is free.
When the four indicator lights at the bottom of aircraft
start flicking, it means that the aircraft's battery power
is low. At this time, the aircraft will initiate the height-
limiting function and will drop to a certain safety height.

-11-
VI. Fling-flying action Instructions:
As the aircraft uses a 6-axis gyro, it
greatly increases the fun factor. Fling
the aircraft outwards or overturning it
upwards with a simultaneous stepping
on the accelerator joystick, the aircraft
can stop in the air in a steady manner.
VII. Headless function:
1. Defining forward direction:
1. Open up the power supply switch of the
remote control.
2. After connecting the aircraft to the power supply,
push the switch to the “ON” location, and adjust the
specified direction of the aircraft’s head under the
headless mode as the new forward direction.
Front
Back
Left Right
3. Push the accelerator joystick of the remote control
to the highest level and then, pull back into the lowest
level. When the remote control issues a long beep
sound, it means the frequency and defining forward
direction functions are completed.

-12-
2. Toggling between headless function and normal function:
1. When the aircraft has completed its matching of
frequency, the default of the aircraft is normal mode.
At this time, the light indicator on the aircraft is in
the long blinking mode. When pressing and holding
on to the left upper corner of the headless function
toggle button for 2 seconds, the remote control will
issue a “Di, Di, Di, … …” sound indicating it has
entered into the headless mode. In subsequent long pressing on the same button
for 2 seconds, upon hearing a long “Di” sound, the aircraft has exited from the
headless mode. In the headless mode, the four lights on the aircraft aret slowly
blinking. Every blink is within 4 seconds)
2. Under the headless mode, the operator does not
require to differentiate the head position of the
aircraft, and he just needs to control the aircraft
using the joystick’s direction of the remote control.
3. Rectification for the defining forward direction function:
1. When the aircraft encounters a direct impact with
foreign objects in the headless mode, if there is an
occurrence of deviation of the defined direction, it is
only required to push the accelerator and the
direction joystick to the left bottom corners
simultaneously after rectifying the flying direction of
the aircraft in the correction direction. When the light
indicator of the aircraft is in a long “ON” mode after
slowly blinking for3 seconds, it indicates the
rectification is complete.

2. Disconnect the connection joint of the
battery from the connection interface of
the power supply.
3. Connect the power supply line of the battery
with USB, and connect the USB interface
with the computer’s connection port (During
charging, the light indicator will light up; and
the light indicator will go off when it is fully
charged. The completion time for charging
the battery is less than 130 minutes).
4. After changing the batteries, firmly secure
the battery cover again.
Precautions as follows during charging of battery:
- Avoid placing the active batteries in places with direct exposure,
sunlight and high temperatures. For example, naked light or electrical
equipment installations; otherwise it may cause damages or
explosions.
- Avoid immersing the batteries in the water. The batteries shall be
stored in a cool and dry place.
- Avoid dismantling the batteries.
- During the charging of battery, avoid leaving the charging place.
- Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type.Dispose
of used batteries according to the instructions.
- The following instructions were NOT marked.
- Rechargeable batteries are to be removed from the toy before being
charged.Rechargeable batteries are only to be charged under adult
supervision.
- Exhausted batteries are to be removed from the toy.
The charging time is less than 130 minutes; In hover flight
conditions longer than 7.5 minutes!

Rectification procedures
Problem Reason Solution
The aircraft
has no
response
1. The aircraft has entered into
low-voltage protection.
2. When the power of the remote
control is weak, the power light
indicator will blink.
3. The channel selection of the
remote control does not match
with the aircraft’s coding.
1. Charge up the aircraft.
2. Change the batteries of
the remote control.
3. Adjust the channel of
both the remote control
and aircraft such that
they are in synchronized
mode.
The flight
response of
the aircraft is
not sensitive
1. The power of the remote
control is weak.
2. There is an interference with
the same frequency as that of
the remote control.
1. Change the batteries.
2. Change to a place where
there is no interference
with the same frequency.
The aircraft is
flying towards
its side in one
direction during
hovering
1. The aircraft is not calibrated
level to the ground.
1. Re-adjust the calibration
until the aircraft is level
to the ground. For further
details, please refer to
Point III of Page 10 (Level
Calibration Function).
In the headless
state, it is
biased towards
the front
direction
1. Many collisions may cause
head biases.
1. Re-define the front
direction. For further
details, please kindly
refer to Point VII of
Page 11 and 12
(Headless Function).
