ACRO-MODE FLIGHT To hover, quick movements with right stick in the opposite direction of any drifting will be needed to keep the Indorfin level. To fly the Indorfin in this mode, move the right stick in the desired direction and adjust the throttle position as needed to maintain the Indorfin’s altitude.
Arm the motors by holding the left stick in the lower right corner until the Indorfin beeps once. The motors are now armed. The motors will not spin until the throttle is above 0%. Advance the throttle until the motors start to spin. After verifying that all 4 motors are spinning, continue moving the throttle up until the drone is at least 2 feet above the ground.

PROPELLER REPLACEMENT CCW PROP CW PROP FRONT The propellers should be checked for damage after each flight. If the Indorfin is suddenly making a strange noise while in flight, a damaged prop is the most likely cause for the vibration. Also, make sure that the screws that hold the propellers in place are not loose.
ESC REPLACEMENT To replace an ESC, remove the 6 screws that hold the Upper and Lower Body parts to the frame: 1. Unplug the camera and put the upper body aside. 2. Remove the flight battery connector cover. 3. Remove the Bottom Cover from the frame. 4.
