1.2 Battery installation and use Power on/power off Power on: Push the battery into its compartment and connect the bullet adapters as shown in the below figure. Note the positive and negative polarities. The aircraft ’s LEDs should light up. Power off: Disconnect the battery adapters to power off the aircraft. - Page 8 (1) Overcharge protection : When the battery voltage level reaches 12.8V, the battery will stop charging. Excessive charging will seriously damage the battery. (2) Over-discharge protection : When the battery voltage level reaches 8.4V, the battery will stop outputting power. Excessive discharging will seriously damage the battery. (3) Short-circuit protection : When the battery detects a short-circuit, it will stop outputting power to protect itself.

Page 13: The Propellers
3 The Prope llers The APHUDX4 uses 9-inch propellers. Each is marked with either an A or a B. Please replace damaged propellers. Before installing the propellers for the first time, please check whether the propeller and motor arm read "A" or "B”. The two letters should match. 3.1 Intr oducti on Propeller Propeller A... -
Page 14: Removal
3.3 Removal When the blade is damaged or needs to be replaced, hold the propeller with a hand or the provided auxiliary wrench, and remove by turning it in the indicated “unlock” direction. before each flight. Before each flight, be sure to check that all propellers are free of deformations and undamaged. If any propeller is damaged, please replace before flying. -

Page 19: Antennas
5.6 Antennas To keep video transmission clear and avoid interference, make sure the H906A’s 5.8Ghz antenna logo faces the aircraft. During flight, the antenna and its signal path must be unobstructed to maximize the video and control range. Bend the antenna so that its logo is as directly pointed towards the aircraft as possible. -
Page 20: Binding The Transmitter
Getting ready to fly It is recommended that users implement some kind of flight training (i.e using a simulator for flight practice, seeking professional guidance, etc.) before flying the H109S. Please select an appropriate flight environment for flight. Flight environment requirements (1) Select an open environment devoid of high rise buildings and tall obstructions (such as trees and poles). -
Page 21: Compass Calibration
6 Compass Calibration Every time the aircraft is powered on, its compass will automatically test for deviations in the local magnetic field. If deviations are detected, the aircraft will automatically enter compass calibration mode. The remote control screen will first read "Calib compass 1" and the LEDs should be red, flashing clockwise. Slowly rotate the aircraft on the horizontal plane until the aircraft LEDs change color. -
Page 22: Horizontal Calibration
Horizontal calibration is required when the quadcopter drifts on the horizontal plane during flight. When this happens, land the aircraft and disarm its motors. Place the aircraft on a completely flat surface and then follow the below calibration procedure. Hold the left stick to the right side of its socket. Rapidly wiggle the right stick left and right continuously until all 4 LEDs slowly flash yellow. -
Page 23: Arming/Disarming The Motors
7 Arming/Disarming the Motors Arming/starting motors ①Simultaneously pull the transmitter joysticks diagonally down-out to arm the motors (as shown in the side figure). Disarming/stopping motors ①Pull the throttle joystick all the way down until the copter has completed its descent to the ground. Simultaneously pull the transmitter joysticks diagonally down-out to disarm the motors (as shown in the side figure). - Page 24 The elevator controls the aircraft’s forward and backward movement. Push the joystick forward and the aircraft will tilt and fly forward. Pull the joystick back and the aircraft will tilt and f ly ba ck war d s . When t he joys t ic k is centered (unmoving), the aircraft will hold its altitude in the air.
