Your aircraft comes with a 1S 3.7V DC Li-Po
battery charger and 1S 3.7V 150mAh 45C Li-Po
battery. Refer to the charging warnings.
It is recommended to charge the battery pack
while you are inspecting the aircraft. The flight
battery will be required to confirm proper aircraft
operation in future steps.
NOTICE:
Charge only batteries that are cool to
the touch and are not damaged. Look at the
battery to make sure it is not damaged e.g.,
swollen, bent, broken or punctured.
1. Insert the charger into a USB port. The
charger only uses power from the USB port,
it will not connect to your computer. USB
power supplies, such as those used to charge
cellular phones, can also be used.
2. Slide the battery into the slot on the charger
and press it into the charge jack/connector
located at the bottom of the slot. The end cap
of the battery is specifically designed to allow
the battery to fit into the slot one way (usually
with the label on the battery facing outward)
to prevent reverse polarity connection, how-
ever, check for proper alignment and polarity.
3. Always disconnect the flight battery from the
charger immediately upon
completion of charging.
CAUTION:
Only use
chargers specifically
designed to charge the in-
cluded Li-Po battery. Failure
to do so could result in fire,
causing injury or property
damage.
CAUTION:
Never
exceed the recom-
mended charge rate.
