TIPS ON 360° FLIPS Once you have become skilled with the basics of drone flight, you can try some advanced maneuvers. At a height of at least 10 feet, press the Flip Mode button and move the direction lever in any desired direction to execute the flip. The remote will beep quickly when you are in stunt mode and will stop beeping once you have executed the flip.

OPERATION: FLYING THE DRONE FORWARD 360° FLIP Push the direction stick forward and the drone will perform a 360° flip in that direction. BACKWARD 360° FLIP Push the direction stick backward and the drone will perform a 360° flip in that direction.
At higher speeds, the drone will pitch more than at lower speeds. Dronium 3X is quite fast at its highest speed and requires more piloting skills to fly competently. For safety take time to develop advanced skills by practicing at lower speeds first.

FLYING OUTDOORS HOW TO PREVENT FLY AWAYS To prevent “fly-away” situations (where drones seem to fly away out of control) it is important to first test and practice within close range before letting the drone fly too far away. Each drone is designed to turn off the engines if the radio signal is lost. It is important to know and test the range of your drone before flying.
SHOOTING PHOTO/VIDEO 1. The memory card comes pre-inserted into the camera. SHOOTING PHOTOS AND VIDEO 1. Turn on the drone and sync. 2. Photo: Push the Photo button and the camera will take a photo. The lights on the drone will flash once as it’s taking the picture. 3.
