NOTE:
The display (2j) shows the speed
and NORMAL mode .
7 . Press the button START/LAND (2i), positioned
on the front of the remote control . The rotor
blades will start to turn .
Controlling the quadrocopter
The integrated height sensor ensures that the quad-
rocopter keeps a steady height, and it facilitates
initial flight manoeuvres, thereby also facilitating
photo and video operations . You have several
controlling options:
• Ascending/descending (throttle)
(Fig. K)
By pressing the throttle (2h) forward, the rota-
tional speed of the rotors (1a, 1b) is increased .
The quadrocopter (1) will then begin to rise . By
pressing the throttle (2h) forward, the rotational
speed of the rotors (1a, 1b) is decreased . The
quadrocopter (1) will then begin to descend .
•
Turning left/right (yawing) (Fig. L)
By moving the throttle (2h) to the left or right, the
quadrocopter (1) rotates on its vertical axis, i .e .
the quadrocopter (1) rotates to the right or left .
• Moving forwards/backwards (pitch)
(Fig. M)
By moving the control lever (2l) to the front or
back, the quadrocopter (1) moves in the corre-
sponding direction .
• Hover left/right (roll) (Fig. N)
If you want to perform a movement to the right
or left without rotating the quadrocopter (1), i .e .
hover sideways, move the right control lever (2l)
to the left or right .
• Turning (yaw trimming) (Fig. Q)
If the quadrocopter (1) moves around its own
axis of its own accord, without controlling the
steering lever (2l) you can correct this with the
yaw-trimming . If the quadcopter (1) turns clock-
wise, press the yaw-trim lever to the left (2f), and
if it turns anti-clockwise, press the roll-trim lever to
the right (2d) . In this way you counter the yaw
movement by trimming in the opposite direction .
• Direction (roll and pitch trimming)
(Fig. R)
If there is a forwards or backwards movement,
even though you are not using the control lever
(2l) at all, you can correct this by pitch trimming .
If the quadrocopter (1) is flying forwards, press
the pitch-trimming button (2o) and vice versa
(2m) .
You can counteract the unwanted movement with
the trim setting . If the quadrocopter (1) moves
sideways of its own accord, you can correct this
by roll trimming .
If the quadrocopter hovers to the left (1) side-
ways, press the trimming button (2n) to the right
and vice versa (2p) . This allows you to counter-
act the unwanted movement .
• Headless Mode (Fig. T)
This refers to a flight aid that when activated
enables the quadrocopter (1) to always fly in
the direction it is steered . It is recommended for
pilots with little flying experience .
When the button (2c) of the headless mode is
activated, from the pilot’s viewpoint, the quad-
rocopter (1) always flies to the right when the
control lever (2l) is steered to the right, regard-
less of whether the front of the quadrocopter (1)
(camera lens) is facing backwards, forwards, left
or right .
If this mode is deactivated, the quadrocopter (1)
will fly in the direction in which its front (camera
lens) is facing (even if the quadrocopter (1) has
rotated) .
NOTE:
The direction of the remote control
(2) and the quadrocopter (1) must cor-
respond exactly when Headless mode is
activated! Only activate Headless mode in
the position specified, otherwise it may re-
sult in control commands not being carried
out correctly .
1 . To activate Headless mode, put the quadrocop-
ter (1) and the remote control (2) behind one
another and press the button (2c) on the remote
control (2) . The display (2j) message HEADLESS
lights up and the quadrocopter lights blink slowly
as long as the mode is activated .
2 . To deactivate the mode, press the button (2c)
again . On the display (2j), the message HEAD-
LESS lights up and the quadrocopter lights light
up continuously again .
