Continuous use of this battery may cause it to expand, deform, explode or even result in fire hazards. Please dispose of depleted batteries according to local laws and ordinances. Do not dispose of improperly.
- Models are made of various forms of plastic. Plastic is very susceptible to damage or deformation due to extreme heat and cold climate. Make sure not to store the model near any source of heat such as an oven or heater. It is best to store the model indoors, in a climate-controlled, room temperature environment.
- The drone is only suitable for use by people 14 years and older. It is recommended that people between 14-20 use the drone under supervision.
- Drones are not to be flown within 5km of airports. Many locations are considered no-fly zones, and you must ensure that you fly in areas that align with your local laws and ordinances.
- Please do not put heavy objects directly onto the drone.
Operation
ON
The switch is on the bottom of the drone. The small round black button is the switch. Press the switch for 3 seconds. The light will flash for approximately 2 seconds at the same time and then slows. The light of the drone will remain on and the machine is in the starting state.
OFF
The switch is on the bottom of the drone. The small round black button is the switch. Press the switch for 3 seconds, and the light will turn off, indicating the drone is off.
Flying
- When the drone is turned on, the light flashes and the drone will calibrate. After three seconds, the light becomes constant and the drone can be used normally.
- Place the drone flat on the palm of the hand. Throw the drone upward, so it lifts slightly out of your hand. The drone will fly automatically.
- The drone will fly for 3-8 minutes flight with a full battery. (Depending on the environment)
- When the drone has been on for a while, it will fly a distance and hover in the air. If there is no input within 1-2 seconds, the drone will descend a certain height and hover again.
Interacting while Flying
- When approaching the bottom of the drone with your hands or an object, the drone will rise to a certain height and hover again.
- If you move towards the drone with your hands or an object, the drone will move towards the opposite direction.
- Strong light, black objects and glass will affect the normal flying of the drone.
Flight Calibration
- When the drone flies abnormally, it may need calibration. To do this, restart the drone, and lay it facing down. Press the switch 5-8 times continuously and quickly. The indicator light will change the indicator light from blue to flashing, and the drone will enter the calibration mode. Return the drone to upright, and the light will change back to solid. Calibration has been completed.
- During calibration, keep the drone horizontal.
Flight Termination
Grab the drone with your hand and turn it over to terminate the flight.
Battery Charging
- If the indicator light in the centre of the drone turns red, the battery is running at low voltage. Cease flying as soon as possible, slowly land the drone and charge it.
- The USB is inserted into a computer and the USB light will turn on (Figure 1).
- Turn off the power supply of the drone and insert the USB outlet into the charging port on the drone. As it starts charging, the USB indicator light turns off (Figure 2) and once the charging is complete, the USB indicator lamp turns on (Figure 3).
- Please only use the charger equipped with this product for charging.
