Celectra™ 1-Cell 3.7V Variable Rate DC Li-Po
Charger
1S 3.7V 500mAh 12C Li-Po Battery Pack (E-flite
EFLB5001S)
The Blade mQX 1S Li-Po battery features a JST connec-
tor that allows you to safely charge your battery pack
when used with the included Li-Po charger and charge
adapter. The included flight battery is safe to charge up
to 2C (1.0 Amp).
Use only Horizon Hobby approved battery packs and
chargers compatible with this product.
1. Connect the power supply to an appropriate power
source.
2. Insert the output plug from the power supply into the power input slot of the Variable Rate Charger.
3. Select the appropriate charge current for your
battery by pushing the + or -, which are the smaller buttons to the right and left of the middle button. (When
charging your 500mAh battery, set the charger to 0.7 amps.)
4. Connect the charge adapter to the Charger lead. Match the red dots on both the charge adapter and the
Charger lead.
5. Properly connect the battery to the Charger lead. Match the red dots on both the battery and charger
connectors.
6. Press and release the start button on the variable rate charger (the largest button in the middle).
A fully charged flight battery can yield flight times of up to ten minutes.
AC Power Supply Cautions and Guidelines
NEVER attempt to power the charger from an AC outlet without the use of a proper AC to DC adapter/power
supply.
DO NOT connect charged or discharged Li-Po batteries if the power supply is connected to the charger while the
power supply is not connected to a power source. Doing so will discharge and possibly damage the batteries.
For AC operation, only use an E-flite® 6V power supply with this charger. DO NOT use a 12V power supply or
property damage and injury could occur.
1. Lower the throttle and throttle trim to the lowest settings.
2. Power on the transmitter.
3. Flip the Quad-Copter upside-down and install the battery by sliding it into the battery mounting slot below the
PC Board. Slide the battery into the slots with the label facing upward so that the battery key, molded into the
battery end-cap, comes in contact with the key on the battery slot. (This key indicates the FRONT of the Quad-
Copter in “+” flight mode).
4. Connect the battery cable to the 4-in-1 control unit.
NOTICE:
Do not allow the Quad-Copter to move until the LED on the 4-in-1 control unit is solid blue (not blinking).
CAUTION:
Always disconnect the Li-Po battery from the aircraft when not flying to avoid over-
discharging the battery. Batteries discharged to a voltage lower than the lowest approved voltage may
become damaged, resulting in loss of performance and potential fire when batteries are charged.
