HOLD
• Verify that there are 6 “AA” batteries inside the remote control unit and the HD Video Drone has been
fully charged.
• Make sure to be in a large open space preferably a field or a park with an open radius of at least 200 feet.
• Make sure to start your drone on a clean flat level surface before take-off.
• IMPORTANT! Until you have experience in flying your HD Video drone, it is not advised to use in any
rate of wind. Wait until a zero wind day or extremely light wind when learning how to fly.
SYNCING YOUR HD VIDEO DRONE
Important! When syncing your HD Video Drone with the controller always make sure that the drone
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 respond to your trim settings. Your HD Video Drone
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.
1. Before starting, make sure that the power switch on your controller is off and the battery is removed
from the HD Video Drone. Make sure that there are no other 2.4G devices in the area.
2. Insert the battery into the HD Video Drone and set it down on any flat surface.The red and white LED
lights on top of the drone should begin to flash repeatedly.
3. Quickly turn ON the remote and you will notice that the top red LED light on the face of the controller
should also be flashing.
4. Push the left control stick all the way up until it stops and then pull it back all the way down to the
bottom(see illustration below). When pulling the stick down to the bottom you should hear a
high-pitched beep and the lights on both the drone and the controller should stop flashing and become
solid. If the lights on both the drone and the controller have stopped flashing and become solid you have
successfully synced your HD Video Drone and are ready to fly. If the lights on the controller or the drone are still
flashing repeat steps 1-4 again.
• TIP 1: try not to leave too much time between putting your battery into the drone
and turning on the controller or your syncing window will time-out.
• TIP 2: Syncing your drone indoors or in the shade will make it easier to see the LED
light indicators on both the controller and the drone.

NOW YOU ARE READY TO FLY!
If you have successfully synced your HD Video drone to your controller as explained on page 4 you are now
ready to fly. Before beginning to fly your drone you should familiarize yourself with how to start and stop
the rotors, how to use your auto land feature and how the controls work so please carefully read and
familiarize yourself with various control features explain in the next two pages. Once again as a beginner
pilot you should learn how to control your drone in a large open field or park on a day with zero or very
light wind. Do not try to fly your HD Video drone too high until you become a more experience pilot.
RECOGNIZING THE FRONT & BACK OF THE HD VIDEO DRONE
Even though the HD Video Drone has four rotors there is still a front or "forward" facing direction and
"back" or backwards facing direction. The forward Front and forward facing direction of the HD Video Drone
is the side with two gray blades (see diagram F ). The rear and back of the Quadrocopter is the side with
two black propellers (see diagram F).

CALIBRATING THE HD VIDEO DRONE
NOTE: Your HD Video Drone comes pre-calibrated out of the box so you are ready to fly.
After several crashes and shock to your gyro sensors, you may notice that your drone is drifting and not
holding its center position as well as it used to.
This most likely means that you need to recalibrate the 6 axis gyro. Please follow the simple instructions
below.
1. Using the included Calibration Table: Place the calibration table on the ground or any other stable surface.
2. Adjust the four screws making them longer or shorter until your water level air bubble is perfectly
balanced in the center ring. (See Diagram S).
3. Gently set your HD Video drone on the cross sections of the calibration table: (See Diagram T).
4. Make sure the HD Video Drone is on and that the controller is synced (refer to syncing pg 4. ). Do not start
the blades. Instead move both the throttle and control stick down and to the left corner and hold them
there for 5 seconds(See Diagram U). You will see the lights on the drone rapidly flash and stop. Once the
lights stop flashing you have completed your calibration and are ready to fly!
HOW TO PERFORM 360º STUNT ROLLS
Performing 360º stunt rolls with the HD Video Drone is as easy as 1-2-3:

TESTING /TROUBLE SHOOTING THE CAMERA BEFORE FLIGHT
It's a good idea to test that your camera is working before beginning flight.
Start by making sure that you HD Video drone is properly synced to the controller (see How to Sync pg 4).
Note: there is no need to start the rotors as the camera function is a separate system. You only need to be
synced.
1. Turn the drone upside down (it is recommended to just hold in your hand) and insert a micro SD card.
The micro SD card can only fit in one way so do not force it. When the SD card is installed all the way you
will hear a “Click” sound and a Green LED light should appear on the belly of the camera (see Camera
Diagram W4). The green light indicates that you have properly installed the Micro SD card and are ready for
taking pictures and videos. If you don’t see the green LED indicator light then start again. Remember to
make sure that the drone and controller are properly synced and that the Micro SD card is inserted until you
hear a “click”
2. Testing the Still Photo Feature: Keeping the drone upside down, quickly depress and release the
CAMERA button on the top right hand side of the controller. The green LED should disappear and a Red LED
light should appear in its place and flash 3x then become green again. You will also see the camera icon
show up on the controller screen at the same moment. Congratulations you just took a picture and tested
your camera. If you did not see 3 red lights flash then you must start again from the beginning.
3. Testing the Video Recording Feature: Keeping the drone upside down, depress and hold down the
CAMERA button for 3 seconds. The green LED light on the camera belly will turn red and begin to flash
continuously. This means that you are recording video. If you check your controller you should see that the
