• Just because the Quad-Copter is small and is powered by electric motors doesn’t mean
that you shouldn’t exercise caution when flying and operating it. The Quad-Copter can be
dangerous if you do not fly it in a safe manner or do not pay close attention while flying it.
You alone are responsible its actions during flight.
• We strongly suggest that when you first begin flying the Quad-Copter that you perform only
basic maneuvers, such as hovering, until you are more familiar with its flight characteristics.
• The Quad-Copter has a safety feature that will prevent the propeller blades from spinning
without first cycling the left control stick (throttle) from low to high and back to low. This
prevents the possibility of the propeller blades accidentally spinning and harming you when
you turn the Quad-Copter ON.
• Always fly the Quad-Copter in a suitably large area free of obstructions. When using the Flip
function, we recommend flying in an area no smaller than 10 feet square and 10 feet high.
• The Quad-Copter can be flown indoors or outdoors in light winds. Do not fly in winds greater
than 10 MPH or in gusty winds. Make sure any spectators are behind you.
• Always be conscious of the spinning propeller blades. Do not put your fingers in the spinning
propeller blades.
• Always unplug the LiPo battery and remove it from the Quad-Copter after use.
• Do not use any solvents to clean the Quad-Copter. Solvents will damage the plastic parts.
Rubbing alcohol is safe to remove stubborn stains.

• The radio system operates on the 2.4GHz frequency band. The 2.4GHz connection is
determined by the transmitter and receiver pair. Unlike ordinary crystal-based systems, the
Quad-Copter can be flown without frequency control. This allows you to fly the Quad-Copter
with others at the same time.
• To prevent any chance of unwanted RF interference, always turn the transmitter ON before
turning the Quad-Copter ON and always turn the Quad-Copter OFF before turning the
transmitter OFF.
• Never touch the transmitter antenna during use. Doing so can interfere with the RF signal,
resulting in loss of control of the Quad-Copter.
• During flight, try not follow the Quad-Copter with the transmitter antenna, as this can result
in a weakened RF signal. Try to keep the transmitter in the same position regardless of the
location of the Quad-Copter.
