Control Method

 

 

 The left  joysti ck controls the X-Drone 
elevati on. 

 

 

 Push the left  joysti ck upwards over the 
centre positi on to make the X-Drone take 
off  from the ground. (Please push the left  
joysti ck slowly to prevent the X-Drone 
from suddenly and unexpectedly rising).

 

 

 Push the joysti ck up, the X-Drone rises. 
Pull the joysti ck down, the X-Drone 
descends. Keep the joysti ck at the centre 
positi on and the X-Drone will hover at that 
parti cular height. 

 

 

 The left  joysti ck also controls the 
X-Drone rotati on. 

 

 

 Push the joysti ck left  and the X-Drone 
rotates counterclockwise. Push the joysti ck 
right and the X-Drone rotates clockwise. 
If the joysti ck is centred, the X-Drone will 
fl y in the same directi on without rotati ng.

 

 

 The joysti ck controls the rotati ng angular 
velocity of the X-Drone. Move the 
joysti ck to increase X-Drone rotati on 
velocity.

 

 

 The right joysti ck controls the X-Drone’s 
front & back ti lt. 

 

 

 Push the joysti ck up and the X-Drone 
will ti lt and fl y forward. Pull the joysti ck 
down and the X-Drone will ti lt and fl y 
backwards. The X-Drone will keep level 
and straight if the joysti ck is centred. 

 

 

 Move the joysti ck faster to increase the 
ti lt angle (maximum is 30 degrees) and 
for faster fl ight velocity.
