This operates at a slower speed to help you focus on basic navigation and develop a feel of thethrottle’ssensitivity.Bydefault,inEzmode,the stunt and speed options are disabled to prevent them from being accidentally activated.• Whenpairingandflyingforthefirsttime,werecommend you use Ez for practising your takeoff, steering and landing skills.Pairing1. Place the drone on level ground. 2. Turn on the remote control to Ez or Ex. The remotecontrol’sLEDflashes.3. Move the throttle all the way up and then down to pair the remote control with the drone.Thedrone’sbladesremainstillduringpairing.Whenpaired,theLEDsonboththeremote control and drone light steadily.Note: Ifpairingfails,turnoffthedroneandremote control and repeat the steps above, or change locations to avoid electrical interference.Fly Your Drone1. After pairing, with the drone on the ground, move the throttle forward to ascend. To avoid ground air turbulence, fly the drone at least 1 ft. (30cm) off the ground.For advanced users: Hold the remote control with one hand, resting your thumb on the throttle. Toss the drone about 4 ft. (1.2m) away from you, and move the throttle forward to fly. The drone adjusts itself automatically and flies smoothly.2. Forspeedoptions,pairandflyinEx mode. Push the steering control in to switch between high speed (double beep) and low speed (single beep).IMPORTANT: Ifyourdronecrashesupsidedown,pull the throttle down and switch off the remote control first. Never touch the drone when blades are still moving.Trim Your DroneMove the throttle forward and see how the drone reacts.Forward/Reverse Movement Trim: Ifthedronetendstomoveforward,press f; if it tends to move backward, press g.Left/Right Slide Trim:Ifthedronetends to slide right, press f; if it tends to slide left, press g.Note: The remote control beeps when you press a trim control but stops beeping when you reach maximum trim adjustment.Land Your Drone1. Slowly move the throttle backward to descend. Avoid moving the throttle too quickly, as it can stop the blades instantly and cause the drone to crash.2. After playing, turn off the remote control andremovethedrone’sbattery.Perform StuntsIMPORTANT: Make sure there is enough space for the drone to perform stunts without crashing into objects or people.1. Push the throttle control in so that the remote control beeps repeatedly to enter stunt mode.2. Use the steering control to perform stunts:• Front flip: Move steering forward• Back flip: Move steering backward• Barrel roll: Move steering right or left3. The drone automatically exits stunt mode after performing a stunt.Using the Camera1. InsertamicroSDcard(not included) in the card slot as shown. Push the SD card in until it clicks.2. During flight, press once to take a photo, or press and hold to record a video. Release the button to stop recording.3. After flying, to remove the SD card, press it to eject.Note: Before inserting the SD card, make sure it has enough free space. The SD card fits the slot only one way. Do not force it.TroubleshootingDrone does not respond• Make sure the drone and remote control are switched on and paired.• Dronebatterymaybelow.Fullychargethebattery.
