2) Carefully rotate the quadcopter
clockwise along its horizontal
axis
for three complete 360º rotations, while watching the
LED Condition Indicator throughout the entire process. Lift the
quadcopter only enough to rotate it and
make sure to keep the
quadcopter level throughout the entire process.
If the quadcopter does not stay level while you’re rotating
it, the LED Condition Indicator will go out. If this occurs,
stop and level the quadcopter until the LED Condition Indicator
turns solid Green again, then continue rotating it until you finish
three complete 360º rotations.

Vertical Calibration:
The quadcopter should be sitting on a flat level surface with the front of the quadcopter pointing away from you
when you finished the horizontal calibration process. The LED Condition Indicator should be out. Now continue with
the vertical calibration process.
1) Grasp the vertical rudder on the back of the quadcopter and lift the tail of the quadcopter up so that the quadcopter
is in a vertical position with the bottom of the quadcopter facing toward you. The LED Condition Indicator will turn
solid Green.
2) Carefully rotate the quadcopter
clockwise along its vertical
axis
for three complete 360º rotations, while watching the LED
Condition Indicator throughout the entire process.
Make sure to
keep the quadcopter vertical throughout the entire process.
If the quadcopter does not stay vertical while you’re rotating
it, the LED Condition Indicator will go out. If this occurs,
stop and jiggle the quadcopter in the vertical position until the
LED Condition Indicator turns solid Green again, then continue
rotating it until you finish three complete 360º rotations.
