DO NOT ATTEMPT TO FLYYOUR SKY RIDERTM IFTHERE IS RAIN, SNOW, HEAW WINDS,THUNDER OR LIGHTNING OUTDOORS. IT COULD DAMAGEYOUR PRODUCT AND POSSIBLY EVEN CAUSE BODILY HARM. SYNCING YOUR SKY RIDERTM Important! When syncing your SKY RIDER‘M quadrocopter with the controller always make sure that the quadrocopter is on a flat level surface and that your digital trim settings are in the center position.This insures that the 6 Axis gyro is properly programmed to mimic your trim settings. Your SKY RIDERTM utilizes an automatic 2.4G channel selection system that allows up to 8 people to fly side by side in the same wireless range with no interference. Syncing your aircraft: 1. Before starting, make sure that the power on your controller is in the OFF position and the SKY RIDERTM battery is not connected. Make sure that there are no other 2.4Ghz devices in the area as well . 2. Insert the battery into the compartment in the right direction and set it down on a flat surface.The LED indicator lights of the SKY RIDERTM should begin to flash (see diagram D). 3. Next turn ON the remote controller. After hearing a series of beeps,the SKY RIDER'sTM flashing LED lights will start flashing at a slower rate. Pull the throttle (left control stick) all the way up and then all the way down.The LED lights will flash rapidly fora few seconds and then stay soild.You are now ready to fly the SKY RIDERTM. If this does not happen, repeat all steps above. FLYING TIPS - It is recommended that you operate the SKY RIDERTM outdoors in a wide space.The ideal space should have a 200 foot radius. - Parental guidance or adult supervision is suggested at all times. - If you are flying the SKY RIDERTM with others, make sure all spectators are behind you. - For best performance, it is recommended that you operate the SKY RIDERTM in zero wind conditions. Wind can greatly affect the performance of the aircraft or cause injury. HOW TO START/STOP ROTORS Make sure you have properly synced the SKY RIDER‘M and the power stays on. - To start the rotors,just push the throttle up gradually. - To stop the rotors,just pull the throttle down all the way. RECOGNIZING THE FRONT & BACK OF THE SKY RIDERTM Even though the SKY RIDERTM has four rotors there is still a front or "forward" facing direction and "back" or backwards facing direction.The front of the Quadrocopter displays WHITE LED lights and the back of the Quadrocopter displays RED LED lights when activated (see diagram E). 4 CHANNEL FLIGHT CONTROL Below is a list of basic flight functions for your long—range remote control SKY RIDERTM.While learning to fly your SKY RIDERTM it is best to start with a large space until you get used to the basic controls. As you master flying your SKY RIDERTM you can move to more advanced maneuvering techniques. Practice makes perfect! When you have these basic steps down you can move to the next level. Move the leftThrottle stick up to increase the speed and the SKY RIDERTM will accelerate and ascend. Move the IeftThrottle stick down to decrease the speed and the SKY RIDERTM will decelerate and descend (see diagram F). Move the IeftThrottle stick left and the SKY RIDERTM will rotate left. Move the left Throttle stick rig ht and the SKY RIDERTM will rotate right (see diagram G). Move the right Direction Stick up while in flight and the SKY RIDERTM will move fonNard. Move the right Direction Control down while in flight and the SKY RIDERTM will move backward (see diagram H). Move the right Direction Control left and the SKY RIDERTM will bank to the left. Move the right Direction Control right and the SKY RIDERTM will bank to the right (see diagram I). ADJUSTING TRIM From time to time you may have to adjust the TRIM buttons to ensure theSKY RIDERTM will hover in mid-air and respond accurately to your commands (make all trim adjustments while the drone is in air). Forward/Backward Trim - If your SKY RIDERTM drifts forward, push and release the BACKWARD TRIM button back repeatedly until the motion stops and proper flight is maintained (see diagram J). - If your SKY RIDERIM drifts backwards, push and release the FORWARDTRIM button forward in the same manner until the problem is resolved. Right/LeftTrim - If your SKY RIDERTM drifts left, push and release the RIGHT TRIM button back repeatedly until the motion stops and proper flight is maintained (see diagram K). - If yourSKY RIDERTM drifts right, push and release the LEFTTRIM button in the same manner until the problem is resolved. Right/Left Spin Trim - If your SKY RIDERTM spins left, push and release the RIGHT SPIN TRIM button back repeatedly until the motion stops and proper flight is maintained (see diagram L). - If yourSKY RIDERTM spins right, push and release the LEFT SPIN TRIM button in the same manner until the problem is resolved (see diagram M). LEVEL SURFACE CALIBRATION 0 If the aircraft becomes unstable during the course of flying, you may need to restabilize the internal gyros. To do this,Turn Off the controller and disconnect the Drone battery. Place the SKY RIDERTM on a flat level surface. Follow the steps to sync your SKY RIDERTM (page 4). Now, pull both the joysticks downwards and towards the right at the same time(see diagram N).The lights on the drone will flash a bit and then remain solid.This indicates that yourdrone has been calibrated. FLYING ENVIRONMENT The SKY RIDERTM is designed for outdoor use only. When flying, do so in warm sunny weather with no wind or rain. WARNING: Do not fly in extreme temperatures or windy conditions as this may affect the performance of ““6 your SKY RIDERTM and cause damage or injury. TROUBLESHOOTING YOUR SKY RIDERTM FLIGHT PRACTICE To master flying your aircraft try practicing the exercises shown below. Start with simple vertical takeoffs, landings, and left/right turning and rotating.0nce those are mastered move on to square and cross maneuvers.Good luck and have fun! PROBLEM Remote Not properly Responding Aircraft Won’t lift off Fixed-point landing Cross Pattern Manuever Square Pattern Manuever Aircraft Descends Too Fast PERFORMING 360° FLIPS After you have mastered flying the Sky RiderTM you are ready to try flips.0nce the Sky RiderTM is hovering at least 3 meters (about 10 feet) off the ground,trigger the 360° Flip Button (see diagram 0) and push the right lever forward slightly and let go.The Sky RiderTM will instantly perform a forward flip.To perform a backwards or side flip press and hold the 360° Flip Button and push the right lever in the direction you wish to flip just as you did for the forward flip (see diagram P & 0). Aircraft Not Responding loss of SKY RIDERTM Control Flip Left Flip Right POSSIBLE REASON 1.Power switched off 2. Polarity is reversed 3. Batteries may be dead 1. Remote is switched off 2. SKY RIDER1M battery is not connected 3.Too windy 4.The remote is not synced 1. Rotor speed too slow 2.

I T1 ‘ r2 r W —r’ i_. (amera Button REPLACING THE PROPELLER BLADES NOTE :Always disconnect the battery before replacing the propeller blades. Your SKY RIDERTM propeller system is a precision instrument that may need repair or replacement from time to time for optimal flight function. Crash landing from high-speed aerial flights may cause damage to your SKY RIDERTM propellers. The SKY RIDERTM has four propeller blades, two on the front and two on the back. Each one of these propellers is marked with either A or B on the underside. 1.When replacing the propeller blades, carefully unscrew the broken propeller from the rotor shaft. 2. Replace the damaged blade with the correct new blade. Ensure that the identification letter on the broken blade and on the new blade are the same before screwing back on (See diagram U). NOTE :The Color of the blade does not matter.What matters is the identification letter on the bottom of blade. All”A”blades would perform the same ir-respective of color and the same would apply for"B". SKY RIDERTM WARNING: The SKY RIDERTM is designed forOUTDOOR use only. The SKY RIDERTM blades revolve at high speeds and can cause damage to the user, spectators and animals. Stand away from the SKY RIDERTM to reduce the risk of getting into the flight path.Warn spectators that you will be flying your SKY RIDERTM so that they are aware of its position. Before flight, inspect the rotor blades to make certain that the blades are securely fastened to the SKY RIDERTM. WARNING! - Choking/Cutting Hazard. Small Parts/Sharp Rotor Blades. - Keep hands, hair and loose clothing away from the propeller when the power switch is turned to the ON position. - Turn off the transmitter and take out the battery from the SKY RIDERTM when not in use. - The included charger is built specifically for the SKY RIDERTM Li—Poly battery. Do not use it to charge any other battery. - New alkaline batteries are recommended for maximum performance. - Parental supervision recommended when flying SKY RIDERTM.
