Quick Start Guide
WARNING
Congratulations on your purchase of one of the hobby’s first ARF pure-bred racing quadcopters.
A product designed by FPV Racers, for FPV Racers.
Do not expect it to fly like a DJI Phantom™ . It does not have a return-to-home feature, no GPS,
and it does not have stabilization features that will allow your little brother to fly.
Take it easy if you are new to the world of FPV racing, try to avoid slamming the quad into the
first wall before you have mastered slaloming through the trees on the way to the wall.
Acro mode is something that should be learned as soon as possible, flying any other mode is a
bit like driving a Lamborghini around a parking-lot in reverse… not exactly what you bought the
Lambo for.
Please carefully read the recommendations in this getting started guide, as far as
equipment/battery selection, and how to run the Vortex 250 Pro Wizard.
REMOVE PROPS
Mini-quad props can do serious damage when coming in contact with human skin, risk of deep
cuts and lacerations should be avoided at all cost.
So when you are working on a quad with the battery connected, it is highly recommended to
REMOVE ALL PROPS, unless you are just about to fly. Keep in mind that when setting up
mini-quads, there is always a remote chance that a configuration change can spin up motors
unexpectedly.
ImmersionRC accepts no responsibility, or liability, for any injury, or damage, to persons or
property, caused by the use of the Vortex.
INSTALL ANTENNA
The Video Transmitter included in the Vortex may be damaged permanently if run without the
supplied SpiroNET Antenna. Please take care to install this antenna before every flight, and
when powering up the Vortex for even a short time period.
ImmersionRC accepts no responsibility for damage caused to the Vortex by operating without a
suitable Tx antenna installed.
