First Flight Preparation Flying Checklist • • • • • ❏ Always turn the transmitter on first ❏ Plug the flight battery into the lead from the 3-in-1 ESC ❏ Allow the receiver and ESC to initialize and arm ❏ Fly the model ❏ Land the model ❏ Unplug the flight battery from the 3-in-1 ESC ❏ Always turn the transmitter off last Remove and inspect contents Begin charging the flight battery Program your computer transmitter (BNF only) Familiarize yourself with the controls Install the flight battery in the quadcopter
Installing the Transmitter Batteries (RTF) Replace the transmitter batteries when the transmitter beeps rapidly. BNF Transmitter Setup Program your transmitter before attempting to bind or fly the quadcopter. Transmitter programming values are shown below for the Spektrum DX6i, DX7s, DX6, DX7, DX8, DX9 and DX18.

Installing the Flight Battery 1. Lower the throttle stick to the lowest position and center all trims. 2. Set the Flight Mode Switch to Stability Mode (FM0). 3. Power ON the transmitter. 4. Slide the battery into the back of the quadcopter, all of the way forward through the battery loop as shown. 5. Connect the power lead to the battery, noting the correct polarity. CAUTION: Connecting the battery to the control board with reversed polarity will cause damage to the control board, the battery or both.
RTF Transmitter Controls Camera Control/ Continuous Flip Flight mode switch Power LED/ Rate Indicator Dual rate switch Bind switch F E A B D C ON/OFF Switch Adjusting Flight Trims The transmitter beeps each time the trim buttons are pressed. The middle or neutral trim position is heard as a longer tone. The end of the trim range is indicated by no tone when the trim button is pushed.
Understanding the Primary Flight Controls If you are not familiar with the controls of your quadcopter, take a few minutes to familiarize yourself with them before attempting your first flight.
3. Attach the camera control board to the landing gear using 3 screws. 4. Connect the camera control cable to the quadcopter. The black, negative terminal should go toward the rear of the quadcopter. Attach the landing gear to the quadcopter using 4 screws. Camera Controls Insert a micro SD card into the slot in the quadcopter until it locks. Make sure the metal contact is facing up and the notch in the card is facing forward as in the illustration.
The quadcopter should not need large trim adjustments. If excessive trim is required to sustain a reasonable hover, perform the Drift Calibration. Making small corrections on the transmitter, try to hold the quadcopter in one spot. If flying in calm winds, the model should require almost no corrective inputs. After moving the cyclic stick and returning it to center, the model should level itself. The quadcopter may continue to move due to inertia.
Replacing the Propellers Follow the steps below to replace any damaged propellers: 1. Remove the screw at the base of the propeller and pull the propeller straight up. 2. Note the propellers and the quadcopter are marked “A” or “B” to show the proper location for each propeller, as shown in the illustration. Replace the propeller making sure to line up the screw holes in the propeller with the hole in the prop shaft. 3. Replace the screw at the base of the propeller. Do not use thread lock on the screws.
Troubleshooting Guide Problem Possible Cause Quadcopter does not function Flight battery connected with the and smells burnt after connectwrong polarity ing the flight battery Throttle too high and/or throttle trim Quadcopter will not respond to is too high throttle Aileron, elevator or rudder trims are not centered Flight battery charge is low Inadequate power to flight battery charger Quadcopter has reduced flight time or is underpowered Flight battery is damaged Flight conditions too cold Transmitter too
