• The vehicle’s NiMH battery temperature may be too high (red Field Charger LED flashes when
you attempt to recharge the vehicle). Let the vehicle cool down before attempting to fly again.
• If the rotor spins but the vehicle will not fly, you may need to discharge and recharge the
vehicle. Follow the instructions in Section IV.

operate your vehicle in windy conditions. Please refer to Section VI.
• Check for obstacles that may create air currents, like tall buildings and trees. You may need to
choose an alternative place to fly. Please refer to Section VI.

ROTOR REPLACEMENT
We’ve included two “spare” rotor blades…just in case a rotor blade gets damaged. Follow these
instructions to replace a damaged rotor blade.
The rotor blade is held in place by a pin and a Philips head screw. The pin is inserted through the
blade holder from the top; the screw is inserted through the blade holder from the bottom.
