e) Roll Function
"Roll" denotes the movement around the centre line which can be compared to the sideways rolling of a ball (or the
sideways crawl of a crab). In this way, through lifting one side the quadrocopter moves independent of its forward
direction to the side.
If you move the right control lever to the left, the quadrocopter will float to the left as a whole. If you move the control
lever to the right, the quadrocopter will float to the right.

f) Flight Mode
The quadrocopter permits you to choose between three different flight
modes depending on your experience.
Change the flight mode by briefly pushing the left control lever at the
transmitter (see figure 8) (push the control lever like a conventional
button).
In beginner mode, the control commands are limited to permit you
learning how to fly the quadrocopter very quickly and easily. This
flight mode is recommended for pilots who have no or only very little
flight experience with helicopters or quadrocopters yet. The beginner's
mode is the basic configuration after switching the transmitter on each
time.
The advanced mode is recommended to pilots who have already collected some experience with other quadrocopter
models. In this mode, the quadrocopter is much more agile in its control conduct than in beginner's mode. In order
to activate this mode, push the left control lever at the transmitter (figure 8) briefly repeatedly until you hear a double
sound.
The professional mode is recommended to pilots who have already collected a lot of experience with other quadro-
copter models. In this mode, the quadrocopter is even more agile in its control conduct than in advanced mode. In
order to activate professional mode, push the left control lever at the transmitter (figure 8) briefly repeatedly until you
hear a triple sound.
Pushing the left control lever again will return you to beginner's mode. This is signalled by a single control sound.
