Guidelines and warnings for the use of LiPo rechargeable batteries
• You have to charge the attached 3.7 V 380 mAh/1,41 Wh LiPo recharge-
able battery in a safe place and at a safe distance to flammable material.
• Never leave the battery unattended while it is charging
• After a flight, the rechargeable battery has to cool down to the ambient air
temperature before charging it.
• You must always use the corresponding LiPo charging unit (USB cable /
remote control). In case of non-compliance with these directions there is a
danger of fire resulting in a health risk and/or damage to property. NEVER
use any other battery charger.
• Should the rechargeable battery swell or deform while discharging or re-
charging, you have to immediately stop charging or discharging the battery.
Take the battery out as quickly and carefully as possible and place it in a safe
and open area offside any inflammable material and watch it for at least 15
minutes. In case you continue charging or discharging a battery which has
already started to swell or deform there is a danger of fire! Even in case of
slight deforming or ballooning the rechargeable battery has to be taken out
of operation.
• Store the rechargeable battery at ambient temperature in a dry place.
•
Always recharge the battery immediately after use to prevent its becom-
ing deep discharged. Please make sure to allow a pause of about 20 min-
utes between finishing the flight and recharging the battery. Recharge
the battery occasionally (suggested every 2-3 months). Failure to treat
the battery as described above can lead to its becoming defective.
• When transporting or temporarily storing the rechargeable battery the tem-
perature should be between 5-50°C. If possible, do not store the battery or
the model in a car and do not expose it to direct sunlight. In case the battery
is broiled it can be damaged or catch fire.
Note:
If the battery voltage/output is low you will recognise that a considera-
ble trim and/or controlling is necessary to avoid that the Quadrocopter starts
trundling. This usually occurs before reaching a battery voltage of 3 V and it
is a good moment to end the flight.

Recharging the LiPo rechargeable battery
Make sure you only charge the LiPo rechargeable battery supplied with the
LiPo charging unit also supplied (USB cable and remote control). If you try to
charge the rechargeable battery with a different LiPo battery charger or any
other battery charger, this might cause serious damage. Please carefully read
the previous chapter with warnings and guidelines on the usage of rechargea-
ble batteries before proceeding. Supply terminals are not to be short-circuited.
You can charge the rechargeable battery fitted in the Quadrocopter with its
USB charging cable from a USB port on a computer:
2a
Charging via computer:
• Rechargeable batteries are to be removed from the model before
being charged.
• Connect the USB charging cable with the USB port of a computer. The
LED on the USB charger cable lights green indicating that the charger
unit is correctly connected to the computer. If you plug in a Quadrocopter
with a discharged battery, the LED on the USB charging cable no longer
lights up, showing that the Quadrocopter battery is being charged. The
USB charging cable and the charging socket on the Quadrocopter are
designed to make incorrect connection impossible.
• It takes about 60 minutes to recharge a discharged battery (but NOT
a deep-discharged one). When the battery is fully charged, the LED
display on the USB charger cable lights up green again.
Note: when supplied, the lipo-battery is already partially charged. So the
first charging cycle may well take less time.
It is essential to follow the connection sequence given above!
Undo the plugged connection on the Quadrocopter when you are not
using the Quadrocopter. Failure to observe this precaution may cause
battery damage!
2b
Insertion of the rechargeable batteries into the Quadrocopter
• Open the cover of the battery compartment with the aid of the enclosed
screwdriver. Insert the battery. Close the battery compartment.
• If the LED on the Quadrocopter flashes slowly, you must change the
battery.
Inserting the batteries in the remote control
3
Open the battery compartment with a screwdriver and insert the batteries
in the remote control. Please keep in mind the correct polarity. Different
types of batteries or new and used batteries are not to be mixed. After having
closed the compartment you can check all functions of the remote control with
the help of the power-switch on the front.
With the power switch turned ON and functioning correctly, the top centre LED
on the remote control will light up red. If the LED control flashes slowly and
an acoustic signal is heard, the batteries in the controller must be changed.
Frequency bind between model and remote control
4
The Carrera RC Quadrocopter and the controller automatically link up
renewed with every operational start-up. If initially there are any problems
with communication between the Carrera RC Quadrocopter and the remote
control, please carry out a new frequency bind.
• Connect the battery in the model.
• The LEDs on the quadrocopter now flash rhythmically.
• Switch on the controller at the power switch.
•
WARNING! Immediately after switching it on, place the Quadrocopter on
a flat and level surface. The gyro-system will then set itself automatically.
• Slide the left joystick, thus the gas lever, completely up and down again into
the zero position.
• Allow the helicopter a few moments until the system is correctly initialised
and is ready for operation.
• The binding has now been successfully established.
• The LED on the controller now lights continuously.
