Instruction Manual

Battery Requirement for FIRE STRIKE PRO:

Requires: 3.7V LiPo Rechargeable Battery Pack (included and 
installed)

Battery Requirements for Controller:

Rating: DC 9V

Requires: 6 x 1.5V “AA” size batteries (not included)

Safety Tips

•  Read through the entire instruction manual before fl ying your FIRE STRIKE PRO.

•  This product should be fl own only indoors.

•  Make sure that you and other people stay 3 to 6 feet (or 1 to 2 meters) away from the FIRE STRIKE 

PRO while you begin fl ight.

•  Always keep your eye on the fl ying toy to prevent it from fl ying, landing, or crashing on or near your 

head or body, or on other people.

•  Never disassemble or attempt to modify the FIRE STRIKE PRO. You could damage the product and 

create the potential for damage or injury.

•  Never put your hands or face close to rotating parts. Doing so risks injury. Never operate the FIRE 

STRIKE PRO while sitting on the fl oor or on a chair — always fl y from a position that lets you get out 
of the way quickly if necessary.

•  Always switch off both the FIRE STRIKE PRO and the controller when you leave the controller unat-

tended. If the power switch is left on, unintended stick operation might occur (for example, if the 
controller falls face-forward onto the fl oor).

•  Due to the dangers of the rotating parts no one under the age of eight should be allowed to operate 

the FIRE STRIKE PRO.

•  Never use parts that are damaged.

Operating Tips

•  Always move the controller’s throttle stick to the down position after a crash.

•  Do not fl y in direct sunlight or very bright lighting — these can affect the control system of your toy.

•  Do not cover the infrared signal emitter of the controller. If you do, no signals can be sent to your FIRE 

STRIKE PRO.

•  Do not place any other labels or stickers onto the FIRE STRIKE PRO. These will interfere with its ability 

to receive the infrared signal.

•  Two FIRE STRIKE PRO models cannot be fl own on the same radio band.

Control Tips

•  When moving the sticks of the controller, avoid pushing them immediately to the extreme positions. 

They should be moved gradually like steering a bicycle, not sharply like operating computer game 
joysticks.

•  After completing the trimming procedure, beginner pilots should focus exclusively on mastering the 

throttle stick fi rst. Even if the FIRE STRIKE PRO turns around a bit by itself, there is no need to keep it 
fl ying straight — just learn how to maintain a constant altitude of about 3 feet (or 1 meter) with small 
inputs from the throttle stick. After accomplishing that, you can learn to take control with the direction 
stick.

Problem: 

Blades can’t turn.

Cause:  

• ON/OFF switch is OFF.
•  Weak battery.

Solution:  

• Set switch to ON.
•  Recharge the battery.

Safety Tips

Trouble Shooting

Problem: 

Fire Strike Pro suddenly stops fl ying and drops.

Cause: 

Too little power.

Solution: 

Recharge the battery pack.

Problem: 

Loss of control.

Cause:  

• Another infrared control device is interfering.
•  Strong lighting is interfering.

Solution:  

• Avoid other devices with infrared controls.
•  Choose another fl ying location.

3. HOW TO LIFT-OFF (after Trimming):

•  Place the FIRE STRIKE PRO on a smooth surface. An uneven fl oor surface will affect its take-off.

•  Slowly increase the throttle.

•  DO NOT look at the controller while fl ying. Focus on the FIRE STRIKE PRO.

•  As soon as the FIRE STRIKE PRO leaves the ground, reduce the throttle slightly. Adjust the throttle as 

necessary to maintain altitude.

•  Gently add throttle if the FIRE STRIKE PRO descends.

•  Gently reduce throttle if the FIRE STRIKE PRO climbs.

•  For turning, give short and small inputs to the direction stick. (Most beginners will initially over-control the 

FIRE STRIKE PRO.)

4. FLIGHT LOCATIONS:

Choose a location that meets the following criteria:

1. Indoors, with little air movement. Avoid circulating air from heating and air conditioning.

2. Room sizes should be at least 10 feet (3 m) wide x 10 feet (3 m) long x 8 feet (2.4 m) high.

3. Avoid fl ying in areas with electric fans, air conditioning, reading lamps or other objects that 
could interfere.

2. HOW TO CONTROL FLIGHT:

Up and Down Hovering:

From steady fl ight, slowly pushing the throttle stick upward will make the 
FIRE STRIKE PRO fl y higher. To make it fl y lower, simply lower the stick a 
little. Smooth fl ying takes only small changes in the stick position.

Left and Right Turns:

Hold the FIRE STRIKE PRO steady in the air. 
Push the direction stick left to turn left, and 
push the direction stick right to turn right.

Moving Forward and Backward:

Hold the FIRE STRIKE PRO steady in the air. Push the 
direction stick forward to move forward, and push the 
direction backward right to move backward.
