CAUTION:
Only use chargers specifi cally designed
to charge the included Li-Po battery. Failure to do
so could result in fi re, causing injury or property damage.
CAUTION:
Never exceed the recommended
charge rate.
The USB battery charger (EFLC1013) included with your
aircraft has been designed to safely charge the 1S 3.7V
210mAh 40C Li-Po fl ight battery. Refer to the charging warn-
ings. It is recommended to charge the battery pack while you
are inspecting the aircraft. The fl ight battery will be required
to confi rm proper aircraft operation in future steps.
NOTICE:
Inspect the battery to make sure it is not dam-
aged e.g., swollen, bent, broken or punctured. Charge only
batteries that are cool to the touch and are not damaged.
1. Insert the charger into a USB port. The charger only uses
power from the USB port. USB power supplies, such as
those used to charge cellular phones, can also be used.
2. Connect the battery to the charger as shown in the illustra-
tion above. When you make the connection successfully, the
LED on the charger turns solid red, indicating charging has
begun. Charging a fully discharged (not over-discharged)
210mAh battery takes approximately 30 minutes. The LED
goes out when the charge is complete.
