2HOW to FLYBasic Flight Advance the throttle slowly until your KODO FPV rises into the air. The controls are very sensitive and small stick movements should be used to the control the quadcopter. If you get into trouble and see that the KODO FPV is going to crash, move the throttle to its lowest position immediately.The LED on the KODO FPV will flash slowly when the battery voltage is getting low. Land as soon as possible and unplug the battery. Always recharge the battery or batteries before storing the KODO FPV.Flips Press the flip button and release it when the controller beeps. Move the right stick in any direction and release it when the KODO starts to flip.The red LED on the KODO FPV will flash when the battery voltage is getting low. Land as soon as possible and charge the battery. The battery must be charged before it is stored. The battery must not be connected to the KODO FPV or the charger when stored. ALWAYS disconnect the battery when it’s not in use!AAAACCCCBBDDDDBBEEEEECORRECTING DRIFTIt is normal for the KODO FPV to drift slightly.

The focus and the Interpupillary distance (IPD) can be adjusted. The headset also has a camera port that can be opened if you have an app that needs to overlay images onto the scene from the camera.The headset has a camera tray that must be removed before the smartphone can be installed. The tray can hold most smartphones, but does not have room for a phone with a thick case. The phone should be linked to the KODO FPV and the app set to the split screen mode before it is installed in the tray.FLYING FPVYour phone can be mounted in the holder on the controller or inserted in the VR headset for a more immersive feel.The range of the FPV camera is about 50 feet indoors, but may be less if the location has a lot of electromagnetic interference or metal objects in the walls.If you are new to FPV, start by flying line of sight until you can maneuver the drone without having to think about which control to use. Practice by keeping both sticks centered and making quick stick movements to maneuver the KODO FPV.When you are ready to start FPV, we recommend that a spotter be available to tell what the drone is doing. Master each of the following steps before moving to the next one.Step 1● Take off.● Hover at about 3 feet.● Move a few inches to the right in any direction and return to the hover point. Repeat moving left, forward, and backward.● Slowly land.The goal is to get used to the view from the camera, the sensitivity of the controls, and judging your height.Step 2● Take off.● Fly slowly (about 10 feet away.)● Turn around and return to the launch point.● Slowly land.The goal is to maintain your height until you are ready to land.
4Step 3● Set up a course.Keep it simple at first. When you can fly while maintaining your altitude, set up a course with gates or obstacles at different heights.The goals are to fly the entire course while maintaining the altitude and increase your speed around the course.BLADE GUARD REPLACEMENT1. Carefully pry off the blade using a flat head screwdriver. NOTE: Do one corner at a time so you don’t accidentally mix up the blades.2. Pull the blade guard up and off the motor housing. Install the new guard and replace the rotor blade.BLADE REPLACEMENTNOTE: Rotor blades must be installed as shown.• Carefully pry off the blade using a  at head screwdriver.• Rotor blades are marked with an A or B.• Yellow rotor blades are front and black are rear.• Match the A and B blades to this drawing to ensure that the replacement blades are in the correct locations.SENSOR CALIBRATIONIt is normal for the KODO FPV to require minor corrections while hovering. If the quad has a strong tendency to drift in one direction, the sensors may need calibration.1. Power up and link the controller and the KODO FPV.2. Place the quad on a level surface.3. Hold both sticks in the lower right corners. When the LED on the quad starts to  ash rapidly, release the sticks but do not move the KODO FPV until the LED is steady again.MOTOR REPLACEMENT1. Remove the rotor blade from the motor.2. Remove the blade guard from the motor housing.3. While holding the motor locking tab open, place the motor shaft on a solid surface and push down on the arm to force the motor up and out of the motor housing.4. Remove the wires from the brackets on the arms and unplug the assembly from the control board.5. Before installing the new motor, make sure that the wires are the same color and are installed in the same positions in the connector.TROUBLESHOOTINGPROBLEM: KODO will not stay level or drifts while hovering.SOLUTION: (1) Calibrate the sensors – see the Sensor Calibration section. (2) Check the rotor blades and motors for damage. A common problem is lint wrapped around the motor shaft.PROBLEM: Red controller LED light flashes after linking.SOLUTION: Replace with new AAA batteries.PROBLEM: The KODO FPV will not respond to the controller.SOLUTION: (1) Relink the controller and the KODO FPV. (2) Make sure the flight battery is fully charged.PROBLEM: Unable to flip but the KODO flies.SOLUTION: Battery voltage is low and needs to be charged.PROBLEM: Will not take off.SOLUTION: (1) Check the rotor blades for proper installation. (2) Battery is not fully charged. (3) Check motors and props for damage.PROBLEM: Drone is shaking.SOLUTION: Check the canopy, chassis, motors and rotor blades for damage.SAFETY PRECAUTIONSFollow these safety precautions when operating this or any model drone.• Adult supervision required.• Do not touch the spinning blades or fly over people or animals.• Keep your face and body as well as all spectators away from the rotors whenever the battery is connected.• Stay clear of buildings, trees and power lines.
