The ideal space should have a 200 foot radius. • Parental guidance or adult supervision is suggested at all times. • If you are flying the Spyder™ with others, make sure all spectators are behind you. • For best performance, it is recommended that you operate the Spyder™ in zero wind conditions. Wind can greatly affect the performance of the aircraft or cause injury. RECOGNIZING THE FRONT & BACK OF THE SPYDER™ Even though the Spyder™ has four rotors there is still a front or "forward" facing direction and "back" or backwards facing direction. The front of the Quadrocopter displays BLUE LED lights and the back of the Quadrocopter displays RED LED lights when activated (see diagram F). FRONT REAR 4 CHANNEL FLIGHT CONTROL Below is a list of basic flight functions for your long-range remote control Spyder™. While learning to fly your Spyder™ it is best to start with a large space until you get used to the basic controls. As you master flying your Spyder™ 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 left Throttle stick up to increase the speed and the Spyder™ will accelerate and ascend. Move the left Throttle stick down to decrease the speed and the Spyder™ will decelerate and descend (see diagram G). Move the left Throttle stick left and the Spyder™ will rotate left. Move the left Throttle stick right and the Spyder™ will rotate right (see diagram H). Move the right Direction Stick up while in flight and the Spyder™ will move forward. Move the right Direction Control down while in flight and the Spyder™ will move backward (see diagram I). ADJUSTING TRIM From time to time you may have to adjust the TRIM buttons to ensure theSpyder™ will hover in mid-air and respond accurately to your commands. Forward/Backward Trim • If your Spyder™ drifts forward, push and release the BACKWARD TRIM button back repeatedly until the motion stops and proper flight is maintained (see diagram K). • If your Spyder™ drifts backwards, push and release the FORWARD TRIM button forward in the same manner until the problem is resolved. Right/Left Trim • If your Spyder™ drifts left, push and release the RIGHT TRIM button back repeatedly until the motion stops and proper flight is maintained (see diagram L). • If your Spyder™ drifts right, push and release the LEFT TRIM button in the same manner until the problem is resolved. Right/Left Spin Trim • If your Spyder™ spins left, push and release the RIGHT SPIN TRIM button back repeatedly until the motion stops and proper flight is maintained (see diagram M). • If your Spyder™ spins right, push and release the LEFT SPIN TRIM button in the same manner until the problem is resolved (see diagram N). LEVEL SURFACE CALIBRATION If the aircraft becomes unstable during the course of flying, you may need to re stabilize the internal gyros. To do this place the Spyder™ on a level surface, click the speed setting to 100% then pull both of the control levers on the remote down and to the left (approximately 45º) at the same time. The LEDs on the Spyder™ will flash quickly and then remain solid, this indicates your aircraft has been stabilized (see diagram O). FLYING ENVIRONMENT Move the right Direction Control left and the Spyder™ will bank to the left. Move the right Direction Control right and the Spyder™ will bank to the right (see diagram J). FRONT 1. When flying indoors choose a large room with few obstacles and no people or pets. 2. When flying outdoors do so in warm sunny weather with no wind or rain.
