LEARNING TO FLY
Learning to fly by trial and error can be both expensive
and dangerous. Follow the stepped process noted
below.
There is a theory test at the end of this manual to test
and enforce your understanding of the operation of the
EX-2 KontikiDrone. The EX-2 can be flown with the
transmitter or combined with the App.
1. Learn the Transmitter
The first thing to learn is the operation of the transmitter. The safest way to learn is to do pretend
flights with just the transmitter. This way you can practice using the switches and joysticks and
learn the correct process.
First, you need to learn to ARM (turn on) and DISARM (turn off) the motors.
To ARM
Before you can fly you need to ARM, or turn on the motors.
Once you have landed and finished flying, you need to DIS-
ARM or turn off the motors if they don't turn off
automatically.
To ARM - to pull both joysticks down and inwards (towards
the middle) and hold for approx. Two seconds. Once the motors start, release the joysticks.
To DIS-ARM
Once your KontikiDrone has landed it should automatically
DIS-ARM, if not, you will need to manually DIS-ARM.
To DIS-ARM is to pull both joysticks down and outwards
(towards the sides of the transmitter) and hold until the
motors stop, which will be approx two seconds.
DO NOT DIS-ARM while the drone is in the air – it will stop
flying and crash.
Practice first with just the transmitter. You can practice later with the Drone. If you are practising
with the Drone remember "NO" propellers.
Practice a flight with the Transmitter only
A good way to understand the transmitter is to practice the movements and actions with the
transmitter by itself performing pretend flights.
Perform several pretend flights to learn the procedure.
