FLYING TIPS
•
Fly in large, open spaces that are free of obstacles like power lines, trees, ceiling
fans, etc .
•
When flying indoors, avoid walls and ceilings, as the drone will be drawn towards
them if closer than 2 to 3 feet ( . 6 to . 9 meters) .
•
Stand behind the drone when first taking off, so that you and the drone are facing
the same "forward" direction . This will help with orientation when the drone is
airborne .
•
Novice pilots should move the controls slowly and deliberately to get used to the
craft's flying characteristics . Try using one control at a time .
•
Practice basic flight operations like take off, hovering, and landing .
•
If you crash, power down the engines IMMEDIATELY to reduce the chance of
damage or injury .
•
If anything obstructs the propellers for any reason, throttle own IMMEDIATELY and
safely clear the obstruction . Check for possible damage before flying again .
•
Flying over bodies of water or at night is not recommended .
•
Never try to retrieve the drone from areas you cannot safely reach, such as rooftops
or trees .
•
Never launch the drone from your hand .
•
Never leave the drone unattended while it is powered on or while the battery is
charging .
•
REMINDER: Pilots are responsible for any damage caused by improper use .

HEADLESS MODE
While you are becoming familiar with operating your drone, it can be useful to operate in
Headless Mode . In Headless Mode, pushing forward on the right control stick will move
the drone in a forward direction, away from you . Pull back on the right control stick and
the drone will come back toward you, no matter the direction of the front and back of the
drone, as long as you remain stationary .
To enter Headless Mode, after pairing your drone position yourself with the drone in front
of you (this will be the forward direction) and press the Headless Mode button on the
controller . While in Headless Mode, the controller will sound a tone slowly and the front
light of the drone will flash .
To exit Headless Mode, press the Headless Mode button again . You will hear a tone from
the controller and the front light of the drone will again be solid .
