GETTING STARTED
Once you have unpackaged your Quad Racer 280 FPV drone, there are a few steps
to complete before you are ready to fly. You need to charge both the power battery
and the video monitor battery, attach the propellers, mount the video monitor
and set the channel on both the VTX and video monitor. The following section will
guide you through the processes. Please follow the directions carefully to ensure a
successful first flight.
CHARGING THE BATTERIES
Power Battery
The Quad Racer 280 includes a 3 Cell 2000 mAh power battery and the QRc3 AC
powered charger for charging it. Please use the following procedures in order to
safely and properly charge your power battery.
1. Plug the power cord into th charger and plug the other end into a 100-240V
wall socket. All LEDs will flash green and red indicating the charger is ready
to charge.
2. Insert the battery’s balance lead into the 3S charging port on the front of the
charger. After a couple of seconds, the charger will detect the voltage in the
battery and commence charging.
3. When charging, all 3 LEDs should be illuminated red. Once all 3 LEDs are
illuminated green, the charge process is complete.
NOTE: If you unplug the battery while charging, the charger stops automatically.
