INSTRUCTIONS FOR SAFE FLYING
GENERAL FLYING TIPS:
• Always place the model on a level surface.
An inclined surface can, under certain
circumstances, have a negative impact on
the starting behavior of the model.
• Always operate the controls slowly and
with a gentle touch.
• Always maintain visual contact with the
model and do not look at the remote
control!
• Move the thrust control down again some-
what as soon as the model lifts off from
the ground. Maintain flying altitude by
adjusting the thrust controller.
• If the model lowers, move the thrust
control slightly upward again.
• If the model climbs, move the thrust
control down slightly.
BATTERY STATUS:
• The battery is empty if the model begins to lose thrust. Land in order to avoid crashing.
9 CHANGING THE PROPELLERS
If the rotor blades on the model are damaged, they must be replaced.
To do so, proceed as follows:
9A Screw out the screw in the center of the rotor blade in counter-clockwise direction.
9B Hold the faulty rotor blade with two fingers and pull it off carefully to the top.
9C Place the new rotor blade on the shaft and screw in the fixing screw carefully in
clockwise direction. Caution: Do not tighten the screw too tightly, as this could
damage the thread.
9D When mounting the rotor blade, please note that there are right-turning (A) and
left-turning (B) rotor blades.

• To fly along a curve, tapping the
directional controller very slightly in the
respective direction often suffices.
There is a general tendency during
preliminary attempts at flight to operate
the model's controls too aggressively.
Always operate the controls slowly and
carefully. Never fast and fitfully.
• Beginners should first master trimming
before attempting to master the thrust
controller. The model does not necessa-
rily have to fly straight at the beginning
- initially, it is more important to
maintain a constant height of approxi-
mately one meter above the ground by
repeatedly tapping the thrust control.
Only then should the pilot practice
steering the model left and right.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Problem: The propellers do not move.
Cause:
1. No connection has been established.
2. The battery is too weak or depleted.
Remedy: 1. Switch everything off and switch on again in the correct sequence.
2. Charge the battery.
Problem: The model stops and descends during flight for no apparent reason.
Cause:
• The battery is too weak.
Remedy: • Charge the battery.
Problem: The model cannot be controlled with the remote control.
Cause:
1. The ON/OFF switch is in the „OFF" position.
2. The batteries were not inserted correctly.
3. The batteries do not have enough power.
Remedy: 1. Set the ON/OFF switch to the „ON" position.
2. Check whether the batteries are inserted correctly.
3. Insert new batteries
Problem: The model only turns on its vertical axis or rolls over when started.
Cause:
• Incorrect arrangement of the propellers.
Remedy: • Install the propellers and arms as outlined in the manual.
Problem: The model will no longer fly loops.
Cause:
• Battery too weak.
Remedy: • Charge the battery.
