FLIGHT PREPARATION
• Verify that there are 6 “AA” batteries inside the remote control unit and the Spyder X™ has been
fully charged.
• Make sure your Spyder X™ and controller are both turned on.
• Make sure to be in a large space with an open radius of at least 100 feet.
• Make sure the empty space has no obstacles. Set your Spyder X™ on a clean flat surface before take-off.
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO FLY YOUR SPYDER X™ IF THERE IS RAIN, SNOW, HEAVY WINDS, THUNDER OR LIGHTNING
OUTDOORS. IT COULD DAMAGE YOUR PRODUCT AND POSSIBLY EVEN CAUSE BODILY HARM.

Important! When syncing your SPYDER X™ 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 Spyder X™ 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 Spyder X™
wire leads are not connected. Make sure that there are no other 2.4G devices in the area as well .
2. Connect the battery wire lead to the Spyder X™ lead and set it down on a flat surface.
The LED indicator lights of the Spyder X™ should begin to flash (see diagram E).
3. Turn ON the remote, you will hear a beep, the Spyder X™’s flashing LED lights should change to
solid, push the throttle on the left all the way forward and then slowly pull the throttle all the way back.
You will hear 2 beeps and your controller should now have a solid red light. If not , repeat the above
steps.

SYNCING YOUR SPYDER X™
FLYING TIPS
• It is recommended that you operate the Spyder X™ 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 Spyder X™ with others, make sure all spectators are behind you.
• For best performance, it is recommended that you operate the Spyder X™ in zero wind conditions.
Wind can greatly affect the performance of the aircraft or cause injury.
RECOGNIZING THE FRONT & BACK OF THE SPYDER X™
Even though the Spyder X™ 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).

4 CHANNEL FLIGHT CONTROL
Below is a list of basic flight functions for your long-range remote control Spyder X™. While learning to
fly your Spyder X™ it is best to start with a large space until you get used to the basic controls. As you
master flying your Spyder X™ you can move to more advanced maneuvering techniques. Practice makesa
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 X™ will accelerate
and ascend.
Move the left Throttle stick down to decrease
the speed and the Spyder X™ will decelerate
and descend (see diagram G).
Move the left Throttle stick left and the
Spyder X™ will rotate left.
Move the left Throttle stick right and the
Spyder X™ will rotate right (see diagram H).
Move the right Direction Stick up while in flight
and the Spyder X™ will move forward.
Move the right Direction Control down while in
flight and the Spyder X™ will move backward
(see diagram I).
Move the right Direction Control left and the
Spyder X™ will bank to the left.
Move the right Direction Control right and the
Spyder X™ will bank to the right (see diagram J).
ADJUSTING TRIM
From time to time you may have to adjust the TRIM buttons to ensure theSpyder X™ will hover in mid-air
and respond accurately to your commands.
Forward/Backward Trim
• If your Spyder X™ 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 X™ 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 X™ 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 X™ 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 X™ 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 X™ spins right, push and release
the LEFT SPIN TRIM button in the same manner
until the problem is resolved (see diagram N).
SPEED SELECT BUTTON
The Spyder X™ has 3 speed settings; SLOW (40%), MEDIUM (70%) and HIGH (100%). The Default setting
when you first turn on your Spyder X™ is the SLOW (40%) speed mode. Change the speed to MEDIUM you
simply press the Speed setting button (see remote diagram on pg 3) you will hear two beeps that means
your Spyder X™ speed on MEIDIUM (70%) setting. Change the speed to HIGH (100%) you press the Speed
setting button you will hear three beeps that mean your Spyder X™ speed on HIGH(100%) setting. You will
be notice what speed you are on base on the beeps, one for SLOW, TWO for MEIUM, THREE for Hight. Speed
settings can be set before flight or during the flight.
LEVEL SURFACE CALIBRATION
FRONT
If the aircraft becomes unstable during the
course of flying, you may need to restabilize the
internal gyros.
To do this place the Spyder X™ on a level surface,
SET THE SPEED SETTING TO 100% (you will hear
three beeps)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 X™ will flash quickly and then
remain solid, this indicates your aircraft has been
stabilized (see diagram O).
TROUBLESHOOTING YOUR SPYDER X™

REPLACING THE PROPELLER BLADES
SPYDER X™ WARNING:
Your Spyder X™ 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
Spyder X™ propellers.
1. Spyder X™ have four blades, two on the front, and two on the back.
Always disconnect the battery before replacing the propeller blades.
Please note that the blades and the Spyder X™ are labeled with an embossed A or B (see diagram Q ).
2. When replacing the propeller blades, gently remove the blade from the rotor shaft.
3. Replace the damaged blade with the correct blade. Make sure to match the indication letter on the
blade with the letter on the aircraft as shown in diagram Q.
The Spyder X™ is designed for INDOOR or OUTDOOR. Spyder X™ blades revolve at high speeds and can
cause damage to the user, spectators and animals. Stand away from the Spyder X™ to reduce the risk of
getting into the flight path. Warn spectators that you will be flying your Spyder X™ 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 Spyder X™.
Diagram Q
FRONT
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
