This control stick position stops rotor motion. Use it to stop the rotors upon landing. It also acts as
a safety feature, enabling you to cut off all vehicle power instantly in an emergency!
• Push the control stick all the way down (past the normal position) to activate the stop feature.
VI. PRE-FLIGHT CHECK
A. Choose the Right Location.
DO NOT operate the vehicle indoors. Give yourself plenty of flying room. For best results, you
should have at least 150’/50m of clear space in all directions. The best flying location is an open
field. ALWAYS launch the vehicle from level ground. Avoid tall buildings, trees and power lines.
They may obstruct your flight path, and they may create air currents that make it difficult to
operate your vehicle. DO NOT fly near water (pool, pond, lake, river, etc.). DO NOT fly in or near
the street!
B. Check the Conditions.
Your vehicle is very sensitive to air conditions. DO NOT attempt to operate your vehicle in windy
conditions; operate in calm, clear weather only. Windy conditions will make it difficult to fly safely,
and will reduce battery life and flying time. Remember that the wind may be stronger at higher
altitudes than at ground level. Your vehicle’s performance may also vary depending on
temperature and humidity.
