Cautions when using the remote controller
• When using the remote controller to fly an aircraft, turn off the
Wi-Fi® and Bluetooth® functions of the tablet or other mobile
device mounted on the remote controller.
• Take care not to cover the parts containing the built-in
antennas with your hand, cables, or other objects.

controller toward the aircraft as shown in the illustrations
below.

• If you do not operate the remote controller for 5 minutes while
it is turned on, an alarm will go off. After another minute, the
remote controller will automatically go into a standby state.
You can stop the alarm by performing an operation such as
moving the control stick, pressing a button, etc.
• If you notice any damage to the remote controller antenna,
contact Sony Customer Support. It may not be possible to
operate the aircraft.
• You need to link the remote controller and aircraft when you
replace the remote controller or are using a new one. Refer to
the Help Guide for details.
• When you turn off this product, be sure to turn off the aircraft
first and then the remote controller. If you turn off the remote
controller while the aircraft is still turned on, you will not be
able to operate the aircraft in case it moves accidentally. If this
happens, it may cause an accident or damage to the aircraft.
