5. Scope of Delivery • Pre-assembled quadrocopter • Transmitter • USB charger • Flight Battery • Two spare rotors (front) • Two spare rotors (rear) • Four rotor protection brackets • Two landing skids • Screwdriver • Attachment screws for rotor protection brackets •... -
Page 7: Safety Notes
6. Safety Notes In case of damage caused by non-compliance with these operating instructions, the warranty/guar- antee will expire. We do not assume any liability for consequential damage! We do not assume any liability for property damage or personal injury caused by improper use or non-compliance with the safety instructions! In such cases the warranty/guarantee is voided. -
Page 8: B) Before Commissioning
b) Before Commissioning • Make sure that no other models are operated within the range of the remote control on the same 2.4 GHz band (transmitter frequency). Always check if concurrently operated 2.4 GHz transmission systems interfere with your model. •... -
Page 9: Battery And Rechargeable Battery Notes
7. Battery and Rechargeable Battery Notes Although use of batteries and rechargeable batteries in everyday life is a matter of course today, there are many dangers and problems. In particular in LiPo/LiIon batteries with high energy content (as compared to conventional NiCd or NiMH batteries), various provisions must be complied with to avoid danger of explosion and fire. - Page 10 • Never damage the exterior of a LiPo flight battery. Never cut the covering foil. Never stab any LiPo flight batteries with pointed objects. There is a risk of fire and explosion! • Remove the LiPo flight battery that is to be charged from the model and place it on a fire-proof support (e.g.

Page 11: Start Preparations
8. Start Preparations a) Inserting the Batteries in the Transmitter Remove the battery compartment lid (1) on the back of the transmitter. For this, you need to loosen the screw (2) and push the lid backwards. Insert four mignon/AA size batteries with the correct po- larity. -
Page 12: C) Installation Of Landing Skids And Rotor Protection Bracket
c) Installation of Landing Skids and Rotor Protection Bracket The landing skids must be installed before first flight op- eration. The skids only fit on the model in one position and only need to be pushed in there. We recommend additionally protecting the rotors from damage with the rotor protection. -

Page 15: Safety Devices
10. Safety Devices The "Power Drone XL" quadrocopter has a range of safety devices in the transmitter and flight model which protect the model from damage and/or should reduce possible damage to a minimum. The protection mechanisms are identified by LED indicators (model) or an acoustic and visual warning signal (transmitter). -
Page 16: Information For First Take-Off
11. Information for First Take-Off a) Hover Flight For a simpler and consistent explanation of steering, classic terminology is used here as well. This comes from flight language and is widely used. Directional descriptions are always to be interpreted from the perspective of a "virtual" pilot in the model. The two green rotors are considered direction indicators. -
Page 17: B) Yaw Function
b) Yaw Function "Yaw" denotes the rotation of the quadrocopter around the yaw axis (vertical axis). This movement either occurs unin- tentionally due to the speed torque of the rotors or intentionally as a flight direction change. This movement is caused by speed changes of the individual rotors towards each other in the quadrocopter. -
Page 18: D) Roll Function
d) Roll Function "Roll" denotes the movement around the centre line which can be compared to the sideways rolling of a ball (or the sideways crawl of a crab). In this way, through lifting one side the quadrocopter moves independent of its forward direction to the side. -
Page 19: The First Start
12. The First Start a) Start The operation and handling of remote controlled flight models must be learned! If you have never steered such a model, start especially carefully and get used to the reactions of the model to the remote control commands first. -
Page 20: B) Flight Movements
• Start the rotors by carefully pushing the left control lever (figure 11, item 4) forward. The rotors start up. Now in- crease the rotating speed of the quadrocopter rotors by pushing the left control lever further forward slowly until the quadrocopter takes off and hovers in front of you at a height of approx. -
Page 21: C) Trimming
c) Trimming In the course of flight operation, it is possible the quadrocopter will not hover in place but drift off in one direction (e.g. forward). In this case, the model must be returned to the condition where the quadrocopter hovers in place by trimming. -
Page 22: D) Flip Function
d) Flip Function The model can perform a flip (a 360° turn). For this, put the quadrocopter into a stable hover flight at an altitude of at least two metres at sufficient distance from the pilot and any obstacles. Push the right rocker at the transmitter (figure 4, item 9) to the right once. -
Page 23: F) Return Function
Since you usually need to think reversed as soon as a model flies towards you (you will steer to the left but the quad- rocopter will fly to the right from your point of view), the headless mode can take over this reversal for you. It doesn't matter where the quadrocopter is currently facing in headless mode, this type of relative control can lead to quick success for beginners. -
Page 24: G) Spinning Function
g) Spinning Function Use the left trimming rocker (figure 4, item 11) to let the quadrocopter turn quickly around its own vertical axis (spin- ning). For this, push the trimming rocker on the right. "Spinning" is ended when you push the button again. When the model is already in "Low Batt"... -
Page 25: Maintenance And Repair
13. Maintenance and Repair a) Regular Cleaning The quadrocopter is a very simply built flight model. There are no mechanical parts that need to be lubricated or require special maintenance. However, after each flight operation, you should clean the quadrocopter of possible contamination (wool threads, hair, dust etc.). -
Page 26: Calibration
14. Calibration The quadrocopter is delivered calibrated perfectly ex works. After harder landings or crashes, it is possible that the quadrocopter will no longer fly as usual. In this case, you should recalibrate the quadrocopter. For this, put the ready-to-start quadrocopter onto a level surface and move the right control lever (figure 4, items 4 and 5) to the lower right at the respective full deflection (see figure 15). -
