Choosing the flight area
8
When being prepared for the first flight
you should choose a closed room which
is as large as possible without any per-
sons or obstacles. Due to its size and con-
trollability, experienced pilots may be able
to fly the Quadrocopter in relatively small
rooms. For your first flights we strongly
recommend you choose a room with a
minimum floor space of 5 x 5 metres and
2.40 metres in height. After having
trimmed your Quadrocopter for flight and
made yourself familiar with the controller
and its functions you may start flying in
smaller and less open environments.
To be used in domestic area (house and
garden) only.
There must be no persons
or objects such as pillars between the con-
troller and the Quadrocopter to obstruct
direct connection.
Checklist for flight preparation
This checklist is not a substitute for the con-
tents of the operating instructions. Although it
can be used as a quick-start-guide, we strong-
ly recommend you first to read the operating
instructions in detail before you proceed.
• Check the contents of the package.
• Connect the charging unit to the source of
power.
• Charge the lipo-battery as described in the
section “Recharging the LiPo rechargeable
battery”.
• Fit 2 AA batteries in the controller, making
sure their polarity is correct.
• Look for a suitable environment for flying.
• Slide the battery into the battery bay on the
bottom of the Quadrocopter.

• Connect the battery in the model.
• Switch the model ON at the ON/OFF switch.
•
WARNING! Immediately after switching it
on, place the Quadrocopter on a flat and
level surface. The gyro-system will then
set itself automatically.
• The LEDs on the quadrocopter flash.
• Switch on the controller at the ON/OFF
switch.
Be sure to check the Beginner-Ad-
vanced switch (
13c
).
Push the left-hand joy-
stick, i.e. the throttle lever, right to the top,
then fully downwards into the zero position.
• Allow the Quadrocopter a few moments un-
til the system is correctly initialised and is
ready for operation. The LED in the Quadro-
copter now lights continuously. The LED on
the controller now lights continuously.
• Repeat the above points as required, if you wish
to fly more Quadrocopters at the same time.
• Important note! Please perform the au-
to-trimming
17
before each flight without
fail!
• Check the control system.
• Make yourself familiar with the control system.
• Trim the Quadrocopter as necessary as
described under
17
18 19 20
, so that when
hovering it no longer moves from the spot
without a command from the controller.
• The Quadrocopter is now ready to be flown.
• If the Quadrocopter displays no functions,
retry the above binding procedure.
• Fly the model.
• Land the model.
• Switch the model off at the ON/OFF switch
•
Disconnect the battery plug connection.
• Always switch off the remote control last.
Flying the 4-channel Quadrocopter
NOTE! Take care particularly in the first
few flights to move the lever on the con-
troller very gently and not over-hurriedly.
As a rule, only very small movements of
the respective levers are necessary to car-
ry out the desired control commands!
If you notice that the Quadrocopter moves
forwards or to the side without your touching
the respective lever, please adjust the trim of
the Quadrocopter as described in
17
18 19 20
.
