4 CHANNEL FLIGHT CONTROL
Below is a list of basic flight functions for your long-range remote to control the X18. While learning to
fly your X18 it is best to start in a large space with the drone facing away from you until you get used to the
basic controls. As you master flying your X18 you can move to more advanced maneuvering techniques.
Practice makes perfect!
Move the left Throttle stick up to increase the
propeller speed and the X18 will accelerate and
ascend.
Move the left Throttle stick down to decrease the
propeller speed and the X18 will decelerate and
descend (see diagram I).
While in the air, move the left Throttle stick left
and the X18 will rotate left.
Move the left Throttle stick right and the
X18 will rotate right (see diagram J).
While in the air, move the right Direction Stick up
and the X18 will move forward.
Move the right Direction Control down and the
X18 will move backward (see diagram K).
While in the air, move the right Direction Control left
and the X18 will bank to the left.
Move the right Direction Control right and the X18
will bank to the right (see diagram L).

ADJUSTING THE TRIM
NOTE: The X18 is already properly trimmed and calibrated right out of the box and should not require any
trim adjustments before flying. Some more experienced pilots may want to adjust trim settings for their
style of flying. After several crashes you may need to adjust trim settings for the X18 to be more balanced.
NOTE: The use of the Trim buttons utilizes sounds. A single long Beep indicates the product is
center trimmed. Long beeping when press the trim button indicates the product is trimmed to
the maximum on a particular side.
