1) Make sure that the left control stick (throttle) is pulled
all the way back.
2) Turn the transmitter ON. The transmitter will make an
audible tone and the Power Indicator will flash.
To ensure that the gyro calibrates correctly, the Quad-Copter must be sitting on a flat, level
surface when you turn it ON. Do not move the Quad-Copter until after the calibration
process is complete. If the calibration process fails, turn the Quad-Copter OFF, then repeat step 3.
3) Set the Quad-Copter on a flat, level surface, then turn
the Quad-Copter ON. The two Power Indicators and
the LED lights will flash rapidly for approximately 5
seconds, indicating the gyro is calibrating, then they
will begin to flash slowly, indicating the calibration
process is complete and the Quad-Copter is ready
to be armed.
