Caution
ADULT SUPERVISION REQUIRED
An adult should check the unit and LiPo battery for damages prior to each use. Drones have rotating blades that
move at high speeds, posing a danger of damage and injury. Pilots are responsible for any action that results in
damages or injury from improper operation of the drone. Adequate flying space is required. Avoid flying near interior
fans and/or vents as they may affect your ability to control the drone. Keep a safe distance from streets, public
thoroughfares, and power lines. Never attempt to retrieve the drone from any location higher than your reach
(rooftops, trees, etc) or any location that poses a safety hazard. Never fly the drone at night. Keep drone in sight at
all times during operation. Discontinue operation immediately if the drone flies out of your field of view. Do not fly
near spectators. Keep away from pets, as they may become excited over R/C vehicles. Keep spinning rotors away
from fingers, hair, eyes, and other body parts. Always launch from a flat surface. Never leave Drone unattended
while it is turned on. Read all enclosed information before operating.
LITHIUM BATTERY CAUTIONS

Drone needs to be hovering at least 10ft
in height before flipping. Do not use this
feature indoor to avoid damage.

Adjustment / Trimming
Why do we need to adjust the trimming?
Trimming is needed to adjust the differentials in real
world applications. Numerous factors contribute to
an unsuccessful hover and as a pilot, you will need
to make manual adjustments to fix these issues.
Recalibrate
It is a good idea to recalibrate the gyro system of your drone before manually trimming it.
A lot of drifting can be fixed by recalibrating the drone::
1) Bind the drone to the controller, place the drone on a flat and level surface.
2) Push both left and right stick (on the controller) to bottom left corner, hold it until the LED
on the drone stop flashing.
3) Recalibrate is complete upon LED on drone stop flashing.
Manually Trimming the drone
If drifting is still exists after recalibrating, use the following trimming buttons to
manually trim the drone.
Forward Trimming
Backward Trimming
Right Trimming
Left Trimming

Adjustment / Trimming
Erase Trimming settings
Manually trimmed settings can be cleared by doing the following:
1) Power OFF the controller.
2) Press down and hold the Right Trimming button.
3) Power ON the controller.
4) Let go of the Right Trimming button.
Bring the drone to hover a few feet above the ground. Observe for
any drifting. Use the opposite direction trimmer button to correct the
drifting.
E.g.: If the drone drifts backwards repeatedly press the forward
trimmer until the drifting stops or until satisfied with the hover.

Blade Installation
Blades must be installed as shown below.
The letters are printed on reverse side of blades.
Note:
Debris could be found in the blades of the drone after multiple flights. It is
advisable to clean the blades regularly when it is in its off-state to avoid poor
flying performance.

Flying Tips
When launching the drone make sure that you and the drone are facing the
same direction. The camera should be looking in the same directional path
as yourself.
Practice launching, hovering, and landing before attempting to learn other
moves.
Flying 2 to 3 feet above the ground will reduce ground turbulence and
make flying easier.
When first attempting to fly in a different direction, start by tapping the
direction stick until you’re comfortable. Move controls slowly until you
become comfortable operating the drone.
Once you’ve mastered flying in different directions, practice rotational
controls. Keeping the drone facing the same direction as you makes flying
easier and more intuitive.
Stay away from walls and ceilings as the drone will be drawn towards them
if you fly too close.
If the propeller blades come in contact with another object, or the drone is
going to crash, throttle down immediately to prevent further damage.
If anything prevents the drone’s blades from spinning, or they become
jammed, THROTTLE DOWN IMMEDIATELY. Do not attempt to fly until
obstruction has been removed and damage fixed.
