Practical flight tips for the starting the model
We recommend that you use a free area of at least 3 x 3 m for the first test flights, even if the model is very manoeu
-
vrable.
When flying the quadrocopter outdoors for the first time, there should be absolutely no wind.
Place yourself directly behind your quadrocopter. When the two red LEDs on the rear motor mounts are pointing
towards you, and you see your model from behind, it will respond from your perspective to the right, left, forward and
backward control commands just as you steer the transmitter. However, if you are facing the camera of your model,
its responses will be the opposite of your perspective as you steer the transmitter.
Allow the quadrocopter to climb to eye level after start up. This enables the flight attitude to be detected optimally
and the quadrocopter is visibly more stable than at ground level. Because if the quadrocopter flies so low that the air
blown downwards by the propellers reaches the ground (ground effect), the flight attitude is significantly less stable.
Attention, important!
Should the propellers run into objects and become blocked, immediately push the pitch joystick to the low-
est setting so that the affected drive motors are no longer supplied with power.
Never try to grab hold of the flying quadrocopter with your hands. There is an increased risk of injury!
When the red and white LEDs on the quadrocopter start to flash, the quadrocopter rechargeable battery has reached
its lower voltage limit. In this case, stop the flight operation immediately and recharge the quadrocopter rechargeable
battery in order to avoid deep discharge that can damage the quadrocopter rechargeable battery.
If the quadrocopter is used outdoors, pay attention to the flight distance. The further away the quadrocopter is from
you, the harder it is to recognise the attitude. In addition, the transmitter has a limited range (see technical data).
Never switch the transmitter off while the quadrocopter is flying.
