Forward/Backward Trim
• If your Spyder X™ drifts forward, push and
release the BACKWARD TRIM button back
repeatedly until the motion stops and proper
flight is maintained (see diagram K).
• If your Spyder X™ drifts backwards, push and
release the FORWARD TRIM button forward in
the same manner until the problem is resolved.
Right/Left Trim
• If your Spyder X™ drifts left, push and release
the RIGHT TRIM button back repeatedly until
the motion stops and proper flight is
maintained (see diagram L).
• If your Spyder X™ drifts right, push and release
the LEFT TRIM button in the same manner until
the problem is resolved.
Right/Left Spin Trim
• If your Spyder X™ spins left, push and release
the RIGHT SPIN TRIM button back repeatedly
until the motion stops and proper flight is
maintained (see diagram M).
• If your Spyder X™ spins right, push and release
the LEFT SPIN TRIM button in the same manner
until the problem is resolved (see diagram N).
LEVEL SURFACE CALIBRATION
If the aircraft becomes unstable during the
course of flying, you may need to restabilize the
internal gyros.
To do this place the Spyder X™ on a level surface,
SET THE SPEED SETTING TO 100% (you will hear
three beeps)then pull both of the control levers
on the remote down and to the left
(approximately 45º) at the same time. The LEDs
on the Spyder X™ will flash quickly and then
remain solid, this indicates your aircraft has been
stabilized (see diagram O).
SPEED SELECT BUTTON
The Spyder X™ has 3 speed settings; SLOW (40%), MEDIUM (70%) and HIGH (100%). The Default setting
when you first turn on your Spyder X™ is the SLOW (40%) speed mode. Change the speed to MEDIUM you
simply press the Speed setting button (see remote diagram on pg 3) you will hear two beeps that means
your Spyder X™ speed on MEIDIUM (70%) setting. Change the speed to HIGH (100%) you press the Speed
setting button you will hear three beeps that mean your Spyder X™ speed on HIGH(100%) setting. You will
be notice what speed you are on base on the beeps, one for SLOW, TWO for MEIUM, THREE for Hight. Speed
settings can be set before flight or during the flight.
4 CHANNEL FLIGHT CONTROL
Below is a list of basic flight functions for your long-range remote control Spyder X™. While learning to
fly your Spyder X™ it is best to start with a large space until you get used to the basic controls. As you
master flying your Spyder X™ you can move to more advanced maneuvering techniques. Practice makesa
perfect! When you have these basic steps down you can move to the next level.
Move the left Throttle stick up to increase the
speed and the Spyder X™ will accelerate
and ascend.
Move the left Throttle stick down to decrease
the speed and the Spyder X™ will decelerate
and descend (see diagram G).
Move the left Throttle stick left and the
Spyder X™ will rotate left.
Move the left Throttle stick right and the
Spyder X™ will rotate right (see diagram H).
Move the right Direction Stick up while in flight
and the Spyder X™ will move forward.
Move the right Direction Control down while in
flight and the Spyder X™ will move backward
(see diagram I).
Move the right Direction Control left and the
Spyder X™ will bank to the left.
Move the right Direction Control right and the
Spyder X™ will bank to the right (see diagram J).
RECOGNIZING THE FRONT & BACK OF THE SPYDER X™
Even though the Spyder X™ has four rotors there is still a front or "forward" facing direction and "back" or
backwards facing direction. The front of the Quadrocopter displays BLUE LED lights and the back of the
Quadrocopter displays RED LED lights when activated (see diagram F).
ADJUSTING TRIM
From time to time you may have to adjust the TRIM buttons to ensure theSpyder X™ will hover in mid-air
and respond accurately to your commands.
