Now
that
you’ve
selected
a
suitable
flying
area
you’re
ready
to
fly!
And
when
making
your
first
flights
we
suggest
following
these
steps:
With
the
left
‐
hand/throttle
stick
still
in
the
lowest
possible
position,
press
the
dual
rate
button
located
on
the
top
right
‘corner’
of
the
transmitter
to
enter
the
60%/low
rate
mode
(you
should
feel
a
‘click’
and
also
hear
a
single
beep/tone
as
noted
in
the
‘Transmitter
Dual
Rates’
section
of
this
manual).
Increase
the
speed
of
the
propellers/rotor
blades
until
the
model
begins
to
lift
off
by
raising
the
left
‐
hand/throttle
stick
SLOWLY.
DO
NOT
raise
the
stick
too
quickly
as
the
model
could
climb
too
fast
causing
you
to
lose
control
and/or
make
contact
with
the
ceiling
or
other
objects
above
(this
is
one
of
the
most
common
ways
most
first
‐
time
pilots
crash).
Lift
the
model
off
the
ground
approximately
20
‐
24
inches
and
concentrate
on
balancing
the
left
‐
hand/throttle
stick
position
so
the
quadcopter
holds
a
steady
hover
altitude.
It
may
also
be
helpful
to
make
a
few
short
‘hops’
to
an
altitude
of
just
a
few
inches
until
you’re
familiar
and
more
comfortable
with
the
control
inputs
and
trim
settings
required
to
maintain
a
steady
hover
and
altitude.
However,
keep
in
mind
that
when
only
a
few
inches
off
the
ground
you’ll
be
in
‘ground
effect’
which
will
cause
the
quadcopter
to
move
around
more
than
it
typically
would
at
approximately
20
‐
24
inches
of
altitude.
You’ll
find
that
it
sometimes
takes
minor
throttle
adjustments
to
maintain
altitude
in
hover.
Remember
to
keep
these
adjustments
as
minimal
as
possible
as
large
adjustments
could
result
in
a
loss
of
control
and/or
a
possible
crash.
While
attempting
to
establish
a
low
‐
level
hover
out
of
ground
effect
(approximately
20
‐
24
inches
high
or
higher)
you
can
check
to
see
if
any
trim
adjustments
are
required
to
help
keep
the
quadcopter
from
constantly
drifting
in
various
directions.
If
you
find
the
quadcopter
constantly
drifts
without
any
directional
control
input
it
may
be
best
to
land
the
model
before
making
any
adjustments
to
the
trim
positions
using
the
trim
buttons
on
the
transmitter
(you
can
find
more
information
regarding
the
location
and
function
of
the
trim
buttons
in
the
‘Transmitter
Details’
and
‘Flight
Controls
and
Trimming’
sections
of
this
manual):
o
If
the
nose
of
the
quadcopter
is
drifting
to
the
left
or
right
adjust
the
rudder
trim.
o
If
the
quadcopter
is
drifting
forward
or
backward
adjust
the
elevator
trim.
o
If
the
quadcopter
is
drifting
to
the
left
or
right
adjust
the
aileron
trim.
It’s
important
to
continue
making
trim
adjustments
as
needed
until
the
quadcopter
can
hover
at
an
altitude
of
approximately
20
‐
24
inches
(or
higher)
with
very
little
drifting
or
directional
control
input.
And
while
it’s
not
possible
to
eliminate
all
drifting
completely
using
the
trims
it
is
possible
to
get
very
close.
Also,
if
this
is
your
first
quadcopter
model
it
may
be
best
to
enlist
the
help
of
an
experienced
quadcopter
or
helicopter
pilot
to
trim
the
model
for
you
before
making
your
first
flight.
