5. Product Description
The ready-to-fly quadrocopter has 4 separate motors that drive one propeller each. Concurrent acceleration of all
propellers permits the quadrocopter to lift off of the ground and hover stably in the air at the corresponding propeller
speeds.
For stabilisation in flight, the quadrocopter has elaborate gyro electronics able to recognise uncontrolled movements
of the model and balance them out without delay. For the flight in a specific direction, the electronics in the model
recognise the control impulses of the transmitter and change the speeds of the individual motors accordingly. The
quadrocopter then tilts in the desired direction and the lift thus acts as drive as well. The quadrocopter flies in the
respective direction.
Two propellers on the model turn clockwise and two turn counter-clockwise. By targeted speed change of the two
propeller groups against each other (right-ward rotating propellers turn a little faster and left-ward rotating propellers
turn a little slower or vice versa), it is possible that the quadrocopter can turn (yaw) while maintaining flight height
and position.
To better recognise alignment of the model in flight, the two front propellers are made of blue plastic, and the two rear
propellers of orange plastic. Additionally, the two front motors have blue LEDs and the two rear ones have red LEDs.
A central electronics PCB in the middle of the quadrocopter contains all components that are required for stabilising
and steering of the quadrocopter. The 2.4 GHz remote control system included in the delivery allows sensitive steer-
ing of the model.
Beginners have the option of operating the transmitter in Beginner mode. The control reactions of the model are then
clearly reduced (dual rate function). The quadrocopter reacts much more agilely in Sport and in Expert mode. On
demand, the quadrocopter can even fly flips.
For operation of the transmitter, 2 AA/mignon batteries (e.g. Conrad item no.: 652506, order 2x) are required.
