3. Operation
This product is a stunt and racing plane. It has highly developed sensors inside the aircraft, which enable active
position control and flight stabilization. This results in smoother flying, allows beginner-friendly flying as well
as automatic stunts at the push of a button. Throughout the flight, the sensors inside the aircraft permanently
analyse the position in the airspace and calculate necessary compensatory movements of the rudders. The
positioning system is already active before takeoff.
3.1. Charging the battery
3.3. Switch on the SmartPlane Pro
1. To connect the SmartPlane Pro,
plug the charged battery into
the battery bay of the aircraft
up to the limit stop. The LED on
the plane flashes green now.

3.4. Control
3.4.1. Tilt mode
With two simple hand movements, the App allows for comfortable and easy control of the SmartPlane Pro. Only
one hand is needed for this. The smartphone needs to be held flat and horizontal for takeoff.
To charge the supplied battery pack, insert it into the USB charger device and plug it into a USB port, such
as a computer, laptop or via a USB wall plug adapter. If you use the USB port of your computer for charging,
make sure that the computer is turned on. At least 5V
at 250 mA is required. You can also use a 5V 1A output.
The battery is fully charged as soon as the red LED
ceases to light up.
Important: Charge the battery at least every 3 months.
3.2. Download the SmartPlane Pro App
3.4.3. Stunts
Through the use of control gestures, you can have your SmartPlane Pro run various stunts and aerobatic
maneuvers. Part of the aerobatic maneuvers ends automatically after activation . Other aerobatic maneuvers,
on the other hand, must be terminated by repeating the control gesture . Under settings › Stunt-Editor you can
assign an aerobatic maneuver to each gesture. The SmartPlane Pro App is available at the time of launch with the
following control gestures and aerobatic maneuvers (TobyRich is constantly working on further stunts):
» Speed / flight altitude: The thumb control is used
to move the thrust regulator on the display of your
smartphone. If this is pulled up, the plane gains speed.
A downward movement reduces this. The altitude of the
Smart Pro plane can be adjusted via the speed.
» Spiralling: Through a slight tilting of the smartphone
(See picture) to the left or right, the SmartPlane
Pro will start spiralling.
aerobatic maneuvers
Airplane Mode
The SmartPlane Pro flies forward
horizontally with normal speed.
This mode is recommended for
the outdoor flight.
Helicopter Mode
The SmartPlane Pro flies forward
horizontally with normal speed
at a 45 ° angle. This mode is
recommended for the indoor
flight.
Hover Mode
The SmartPlane Pro flies vertically
on the spot and rotates around its
own axis.
See also the explanations in the videos at www.tobyrich.com/support.
3.4.2. Joystick-Mode
Position the joystick over the right circle. Press the two
suction cups on firmly to secure the position. Use your
left thumb to operate the thrust controller. Use the
Joystick to steer left and right.
IMPORTANT: Before installing the joystick, clean the smartphone screen with a suitable cleaning cloth, e.g.
a microfiber cloth.
For more tips and tricks, check out the tutorial in the SmartPlane Pro app.
Boost
The SmartPlane Pro gets a speed
boost for a couple of seconds.
This is e.g. useful to fly against
the wind.
Circle Mode
The SmartPlane Pro flies circles
autonomously.
Looping
The SmartPlane Pro makes a
Looping.
IMPORTANT: Fly at a sufficient
altitude!
3.4.4. Start
Hold the aircraft in one hand and the
smartphone in the other hand. To start the
aircraft, tap the start button, and gently push
the airplane forward at the start signal of the
app. In buildings, you should start in helicopter
mode and throw the aircraft forward very gently
/ slowly at a 45 ° angle. Make sure in any case
that there is enough space available for your
first takeoffs!

2. Dismantling the propeller
3.6. Switch off
To turn off the airplane, remove the battery from the aircraft.
3.7. Replace propeller
To change the propeller, insert the supplied propeller exchange tool into the gap between the propeller and
the aircraft body and push it down firmly with the thumb. Embrace the aircraft while doing this so that the
propeller is free to rotate. To release it, turn it counter - clockwise until it has come off the plane. Then insert the
replacement propeller onto the engine-axis and turn it clockwise until it presses the replacement tool slightly
against the aircraft body. Then remove the replacement tool again. It is important to slightly clamp the plate
of the replacement tool. The gap between the propeller and the aircraft must be set exactly to ensure proper
functioning and durability. A video tutorial is available at: www.tobyrich.com/support.
Not suitable for children under 14 years of age. This is not a toy. Please read the operating instructions before
use. As a Class 1 device, sales and operation are permitted in all countries of the EU.
7. FCC-Information
3.5. Flight
Always choose a wide open area for the flight with your SmartPlane Pro. Ideal would be to fly on a designated
airfield. If this is not the case, do not allow the aircraft to fly near houses, trees, pipes, waterways and building
structures. Flights should also be avoided in areas where many people are present, e.g. in busy parks, on
school yards or football pitches. Find out about local laws and regulations before you choose a place for your
flight.
If there is a problem in flight, or if you are unsure about the flight, just use your finger to turn off the engine
completely. Also, tilt the smartphone all the way to the right or left to get a sharp curve in the respective
direction Through these measures, the SmartPlane PRO will begin to drop at maximum speed in a spiral.

when used as intended, is in compliance with the basic requirements and other relevant provisions
of Radio Equipment Directive (RED) 2014/53/EU. The declaration of conformity can be found on the Internet at
www.tobyrich.com/en/support/doc.

The LED lights up red.
The aircraft has detected a problem. Check the error message in the app and fix the error if necessary.
The propeller is blocked.
1. Make sure that no fibers (hair, grass, etc.) are wrapped around the shaft.
2. If the propeller rubs against the nose of the aircraft, loosen it with the propeller-exchange tool (s. chapter
3.7.)
The rudder is blocked.
If the rudder cannot be moved, it has probably jumped out and
must be hooked up again carefully:
1. Insert the top hinge first.
2. Then, snap in the lower part of the hinge.
SmartPlane Pro
The app crashes.
1. Verify that you have uploaded the latest version of your Android or iOS operating system.
2. Delete the SmartPlane PRO app and download the app again.
3. Restart your smartphone.
4. Turn Bluetooth off once and then on again. Turn off the wireless LAN, too.
app controlled stunt & racing plane
The battery does not charge.
1. Always ensure that the battery is fully charged at least every 3 months. Failure to do so may result in
permanent damage to the battery. In this case, it must be replaced. You can get a replacement battery
at www.tobyrich.com
2. Plug the battery charger into another USB port. Some computers turn off the USB ports when they are
inactive. Also ensure that the socket adapter is functional.
3. Check whether the LiPo battery is correctly inserted into the battery charger. In case of doubt, check out our
tutorials at www.tobyrich.com/support an.
Something is broken.
1. Parts of the fuselage, wing and tailplane can be repaired using commercially available EPP adhesives.
Follow the instructions given by the adhesive manufacturers when doing so.
2. Parts made of hard plastic can usually be repaired with superglue.
Caution: Never glue parts of the propeller! Replace the propeller immediately in case of a defect!
(See chapter 3.7).
Note: Also be careful with the use of glue near the rudder hinges. These must not be glued, since in this case
the aircraft is no longer airworthy.
