Understanding the Primary Flight Controls

If you are not familiar with the controls of your Nano QX 3D, take a few minutes to familiarize yourself with them before 

attempting your first flight.

Takeoff

Increase the throttle until the model is approximately 2 ft. (600mm) off the ground and check the trim so the model flies as desired. 
Adjust trim on your transmitter if the quadcopter turns or drifts in calm air while control sticks are centered. 

• If the quadcopter nose turns to the left or right, adjust the rudder trim. 

• If the quadcopter drifts forward or backward, adjust the elevator trim. 

• If the quadcopter drifts left or right, adjust the aileron trim.
Once the trim is adjusted, begin flying the model. Typical flight times for the included battery range from 5 to 10 minutes.

Low Voltage Cutoff (LVC)

LVC decreases the power to the motors when the battery voltage gets low. When the motor power decreases and the blue and red LEDs 

on the 4-in-1 unit are solid, land the aircraft immediately and recharge the flight battery.
LVC does not prevent the battery from over-discharge during storage.

NOTICE:

 Repeated flying to LVC will damage the battery.

TIP:

 Set the quadcopter down on the ground quickly by lowering the throttle when approaching walls or other obstacles to help prevent 

propeller strikes.

TIP:

 Many aerobatic maneuvers can be performed using the RTF transmitter. However, a computerized transmitter will allow increase of 

the travel beyond 100% on aileron, elevator or rudder for increased control authority.

Landing

To land, slowly decrease the throttle while in a low-level hover. After landing, disconnect and remove the battery from the aircraft after 

use to prevent trickle discharge. Fully charge your battery before storing it. During storage, make sure the battery charge does not fall 

below 3V per cell.

Flying the Nano QX 3D

Post-Flight Inspection and Maintenance Checklist

Cleaning 

Make sure the battery is not connected before cleaning. Remove dust and debris with a soft brush or a dry,  

lint-free cloth. 

Motors

Replace the motor when the model will not fly steady or veers off when doing a climb out.

Wiring

Make sure the wiring does not block moving parts. Replace damaged wiring and loose connectors.

Fasteners

Make sure there are no loose screws, other fasteners or connectors. Do not over-tighten metal screws in plastic 

parts. Tighten screws so the parts are mated together, then turn screw only 1/8th of a turn more.

Propellers

Make sure there is no damage to the propellers or other parts that move at high speed. Damage to these parts 

includes cracks, burrs, chips or scratches. Replace damaged parts before flying.
