battery check.
The X3 is delivered with some power stored in its internal battery.
The battery should however be fully charged for 8-10 hours with the
included power adapter before first use.
WARNING
Using damaged mains cords or chargers, or charging when
moisture is present, can cause electric shock.
CAUTION
Do not use a power adapter other than the one supplied or specified
by FlightScope. If an adapter with incorrect voltage rating is used,
the X3 electronics can be damaged. If an adapter with insufficient
current rating is used, the adapter may overheat and become
damaged.
NOTE
1. The power adapter may become warm during normal use.
Always allow adequate ventilation around the power adapters
during use.
2. If the X3 is left switched on, the battery will drain and might
become completely discharged. If battery is completely
discharged, you must charge the battery with the system
“OFF” for at least 30 minutes before using.
Charging the X3 to full capacity takes up to 10 hours using the
supplied power adapter.
1. Connect the included power adapter to a wall outlet and
plug the power lead into X3 power connector.
2. The battery indicators will show the battery level in BLUE
(see LED Indicators – Battery).

Battery Safety and Care
Don’t attempt to replace the X3 battery yourself. The X3 battery
should be replaced only by an authorized FlightScope Repair
Center.
A defective or end of life battery must be recycled or disposed of
separately from household waste.
Do not burn the battery.
The X3’s self-leveling feet automatically adjust tilt and roll angles to
compensate for uneven surfaces.
The X3’s operating tilt angle is optimized by the app for best tracking
performance and can vary. The default settings are 7° for Normal
golf mode and 2° for Short Game. Ground slope must be less than
5˚ for self-leveling function.
Flat
(Actuators extend mid-way)
Down slope
(Actuators extend less)
Up slope
(Actuators extend more)
- Sensor operating roll angle is 0˚.
- Ground slope must be < 3˚ for self-leveling to function.
Left slope 3˚ max
Right slope 3˚ max
1. Use the X3 on reasonably leveled surfaces. Ensure that there are
no obstructions or steps in front of the unit, and it has a clear
unobstructed view of the club swing and ball trajectory.
2. Remember to set the correct mode (‘Indoor’, ‘Short Indoor’ or
‘Outdoor’), align the unit properly and enter the correct distance
from the X3 unit to the Tee.
3. Certain items can cause false triggers (ghost shots) depending on
their position in relation to the X3. The below illustration shows
these items and where they may cause false triggers.
Try to prevent false triggers by switching such lights or machines
off, or install a wire mesh screen in the light covers or over the
interfering machines.

intended operating position.
While starting up, the unit will automatically adjust its level
according to the slope of the ground or floor.
1. Choose your tee position
2. Select a target line from the ball to a target (a tree in the
distance, flag, or other marker)
3. Place the X3 behind the tee, with X3’s internal camera hole
over the target line
Normal golf shots:
Short Game (putts, chips)
