Reely Gravity FPV RtF, Operating Instructions Manual

The first start

a) Starting

  The operation and handling of remote controlled model aircraft must be learned! If you have never before 

operated a model of this kind, take extra care at the start and get used to the reactions of the model to the 

remote control commands first. Be patient! Follow the instructions in Chapter 11.

Do not take any risks when using the product! Always use the model responsibly, otherwise you may 

endanger yourself and your surroundings.

Fully charge the rechargeable flight battery if you have not already done so.
Switch on the quadrocopter (button in the middle of the body). The LEDs in the body start to flash every second. The 

(red) LEDs point backwards (to you) and mean "back".

Place the model on a smooth, flat surface (e.g. a stone floor). A carpet is less suitable here, since the quadrocopter 

could easily get caught in the carpet. 

Switch on the hand-held transmitter by pressing the on/off switch. The transmitter indicates this by a beep. The control 

LED in the transmitter flashes.
Push the control lever of the hand-held transmitter (figure 4, item 4) forwards and then backwards. The control LED 

in the transmitter as well as the LEDs in the quadrocopter now light up permanently. Return the control lever to the 

neutral position (centre position).

The quadrocopter is now bound with the transmitter and ready for takeoff. Hold the hand-held transmitter horizontally 

(see figure 5 and the instructions in this chapter).
Start the rotors by pushing down the "start rotors/automatic landing" (figure 4, item 4) button from above (push the 

control lever of the hand-held transmitter downwards). Start the motors

Now increase the quadrocopter rotor speed by slowly pushing the control lever forward until the quadrocopter as

-

cends and then hovers in front of you at a height of approx. 1.5 metres. 

  Avoid any fast or big control movements. When steering, observe whether and, if applicable, in which 

direction the quadrocopter moves with the "roll" (sideways) or "nod" (forwards or backwards) functions. 

In this case, steer carefully in the opposite direction of the drift by tilting the hand-held transmitter in the 

appropriate direction (also see chapter 11).

To land the quadrocopter again, pull the control lever back slowly at a suitable landing spot until the quadrocopter 

drops to the ground. A somewhat hard landing on the ground is not a problem and should not be corrected with jerky 

throttle movements. 

If you want to turn off the rotors again, pull and hold the control lever (figure 4, item 4) back for about two seconds until 

the rotors have stopped. Alternatively, press the “Stop rotors immediately button (figure 4, item 8).

Try to land as vertically as possible ("helicopter landing"). Avoid landing at high horizontal speeds ("airplane landing"). 

If not already done, switch off the motors after landing.

Practice this start-up procedure a few times to get a feel for the quadrocopter. Once you are reasonably confident, 

you can start controlling the flight direction with the yaw, nod, and roll functions (see notes in chapter 11). Always steer 

slowly and carefully and practice the procedure a little before trying a new flight manoeuvre. The first few flights should 

last no longer than 30 to 60 seconds each.
