12 SPECIAL ACTIONS LAUNCH TOSS You can launch your drone by simply tossing it in the air and pushing the throttle joystick straight up. The new 6-Axis Gyroscope technology allows the drone to automatically stabilize, level itself out and hover smoothly while airborne. FLIP STUNT MODE Hover the drone at least 10 feet off the ground. Press the Flip Stunt Button and push the right joystick in the direction you want the drone to perform a flip. EASY MODE Simplifies drone controls by limiting command directions based on pilot direction. Use Easy Mode when you are having difficulty telling which direction the drone is pointing because of distance. Follow the instructions below to use Easy Mode. TAKING OFF PILOT For Easy Mode to work properly you must launch the drone with the front of the drone facing away from the pilot as shown in the illustration to the left. Easy Mode will not work if the button is pressed while the drone is to the side or behind the pilot. The drone must remain in front of the pilot, as shown in the illustration to the right (flight area). To activate Easy Mode, press the button once while the drone is in flight. Once Easy Mode is activated, the drone control will be relative to the direction of pilot, not the direction of the drone. The drone will fly toward the pilot when pressing down on the Forward/Backward stick (right joystick) and away when pressing up. Press the Easy Mode button again to deactivate it. FLIGHT AREA PILOT Altitude Lock Because both joysticks are spring loaded and will return to the middle position automatically, the drone is always in Altitude Lock and will remain at its current altitude with no input. This feature makes flying the drone easy for beginners. By not touching the left joystick you can keep the drone at its current height and focus on moving the drone forward/backwards and side to side with the right joystick. Hover Mode No input from the pilot will put the drone in Hover Mode. The drone will stay stationary in the air while in Hover Mode. AUTOMATIC SHUTDOWN OVERRIDE FUNCTIONS For safety precautions, the drone will automatically shut down when the following situations occur: 1. When the drone s battery is running low. 2. When one or more of the drone s propellers has resistance due to impact or any form of entanglement. 12

13 POST FLIGHT After you are done flying the drone make sure the battery pack is disconnected and the transmitter power is turned off. If you are not going to use the drone for a long period of time, please remove the AA batteries from the transmitter to prevent them from draining or leaking. REPLACING THE ROTORS The rotors may become damaged during a collision. The drone comes with 4 spare rotors. Please replace damaged rotors immediately. B A The drone comes with 2 A rotors and 2 B rotors. The A and B rotors must be installed on specific locations on the drone for it to fly properly. Check the bottom of each rotor to see if it s labeled either A or B. Use the illustration above to install them in the correct location. A B Use the included screwdriver to unscrew and remove the screw on the rotor. Remove the damaged rotor by lifting upward. Be sure not to misplace the screw. Place the correct A or B rotor on top of the peg. Replace the screw on the rotor. Repeat the process for any other rotors that need replacing. 13

14 REMOVING THE ROTOR GUARDS The drone comes with its 4 rotor guards already installed. It is recommended that you leave the rotor guards installed at all times. If you need to remove or replace a rotor guard, just follow these easy steps. NOTE: The rotor guards are all identical and can be installed anywhere on the drone. Use the included screwdriver to unscrew and remove the screw on the rotor guard. Remove the rotor guard by lifting upward. Be sure not to misplace the screw. Screw the rotor guard screw into the same spot without the rotor guard so you don t misplace it. 14
