Page 23: Aircraft & Transmitter Basic Operation
>AA battery（5#）:4 pieces >External power supply:6V Aircraft & transmitter basic operation Definitions： Stick neutral position and stick released means the stick of transmitter is pushed to the central position. Common stick means the stick of transmitter is pushed away from the central position.
Page 24 throttle stick into the neutral position, the aircraft can take off from the ground. Yaw stick is for aircraft rudder control. Common stick controls the angular velocity of the aircraft, with the maximum rudder angular velocity of 200.left stick command gives counter clock-wise rotation of the aircraft, vice versa.
Page 25 the aircraft maintain the level. Stick corresponded to the title angle of the aircraft, the larger the stick, the larger the title angle (the max is 45˚), the quicker the flying speed. Roll stick is used to control the left and right flying of the aircraft.
Page 26 the tilted angle（Max is 30˚）, the quicker the flying speed. Control mode switch Change switch can choose different control mode .factory default: stabilize, Stabilize AltHold Loiter Alt Hold, Loiter. When GPS signal The software can indicator flashes, Do not switch to GPS customize three gesture mode.

Gimbal control knob, twist the knob can change pitch angle of gimbal. The frequency method for RC and receiver This product built-in 2.4GHz receiver, the frequency interface is located in the aircraft cabin. When shipping from the factory, RC and receiver have already completed the frequency, it can be used after connecting to the power.
Page 28 ③ Please use the correct typed battery to avoid the explosion. ④ Please dispose wasted battery according to the battery instruction. ⑤ Remove the battery after using it. 2. Prepare the aircraft battery Please use the fully charged 3S Li Po battery(recommended parameters for battery：1143145 - 7000MAH - 20C －11.1V)。...
Page 29 4. Sticker posted method 5. Install the tripod Put the stickers stick on the product according to the illustration direction. 6. Switch on the RC ⑴ Put the model control switch and return switch into the top. ⑵ Push up the power switch to turn on the RC. 7.
Page 30: Flying Test
⑵ Turn on the battery compartment cover of the aircraft. ⑶ Put the battery into the battery compartment with the power cord facing outwards. ⑷ Connect the power line of battery and aircraft, make sure that four ESC beep is normal, the green tail indicator of the aircraft bottom start to flash at this moment, Do not move the RC, Keep the aircraft stationary，the system quickly into the self-test status，green light flashes quickly, when the green light start to flash slowly, the system self-test is complete.
Page 31 (3)Please release the stick after the motor starts，the flight stick will automatically return to the middle when the throttle stick located in the lowest position ,at this moment green tail indicator flashes all the time.（if you find the green light is flashing, it indicates that the unlocked time is too long ,the aircraft starts to automatic calibration balance mode)；push the throttle stick away from the lowest position （the throttle stick does not away from the bottom at a period of time, motor stop rotating, if (this is the case,...
Page 32 ground. and use the stick to adjust the movement state of the aircraft. (5) After reaching the desired position, pull the throttle in to the neutral position （keep the roll/pitch/yaw stick is in the neutral position），change the control switch ,change the flight mode of aircraft . 4.
Page 33 takeoff the aircraft, lock the aircraft and then unlock again, confirm the green tail light flashes, the aircraft start to normal state. ② If the battery voltage is too low during the flight, the aircraft starts to low voltage alert, the red nose indicator flashes, please landing the aircraft as soon as possible to avoid the serious consequences.
Page 34 The flowchart of fail safe and how to regain control Complete uncontrolled return process Return point ： when the main controller find 6 or more satellites （ GPS signal indicator flashes） ,the first time you start the motor, the main controller records the aircraft position to the return point.
Page 35 2. GPS normally work and has a good signal（ six satellites or more, corresponded GPS signal indicator state blue light flashes） If signal cannot connect in 2 seconds, Once the FCS the FCS will start to uncontrolled receives the signal, Aircraft fly away, return.
Page 36: Low Voltage Alert
(3)If GPS has a poor signal or GPS does not work，out of control will not return. Note ： After starting the motor, but it does not let the aircraft take off, it is dangerous to turn off the RC in this case, the aircraft may take off, so please do not try this.
