12. The First Start
a) Start
 Theoperationandhandlingofremotecontrolledightmodelsmustbelearned!Ifyouhaveneversteered
such a model, start especially carefully and get used to the reactions of the model to the remote control
commandsrst.Dobepatient!Usetheinformationfromchapter11asreference.
Do not take any risks when operating the product! Your own safety and that of your environment depends
completely on your responsible use of the model.
Connecttheightbattery.For this, youneedtoopenthe battery
compartment(gure5,item3)bypushingthelidbackwardsbythe
groove and folding it open.
Now push the rechargeable battery into the intended compartment.
The cables point out of the quadrocopter at the back. Now connect
the two-pin plug of the rechargeable battery to the socket of the
quadrocopter in the correct polarity (also see gure 11; observe
contours of the plug).
The LEDs in the model start to ash quickly. Close the battery
compartment again.
Observe that no cables are crushed here.
• Placethemodelonalevelsurfaceassmoothaspossible(e.g.stoneoor).Acarpetislesssuitablebecausethe
landing legs may bet caught in the carpet easily. The front (red) rotors point forward (away from you).
• Turn on the remote control transmitter by pushing the on/off switch
(seegure 3,item 1).Thetransmitterconrmsthiswithadouble
sound.ThecontrolLED(g.3,item2)willash.
• Pushtheleftcontrollever(gure3,item3)forwarduntilacontrol
sound sounds.
• Pulltheleftcontrollever(gure3,item3)backwardsuntilacontrol
sound sounds. The control LED at the transmitter and the LEDs at
the quadrocopter are now permanently lit.
The quadrocopter is now bound to the transmitter and ready to start.
• Starttherotorsbyputtingbothcontrolleverstotheintendedpositionasshowningure12.Ifyounowputboth
control levers back into the neutral position, the rotors will start. If you want to switch off the rotors again, pull and
hold only the left control lever in the position "right/down".
• Now increase the rotating speed of quadrocopter rotors by pushing the left control lever forward slowly until the
quadrocopter takes off and hovers in front of you at a height of approx. 1.5 metres. Generally avoid any fast and
big controlling motions. Also watch closely to see whether and in which direction the quadrocopter moves. By using
trimming on the remote control (see item d) in this chapter), you can align undesired movements.
