  • Page 3: Introduction

    1. Introduction Dear Customer, thank you for purchasing this product. This product complies with the statutory national and European requirements. To maintain this status and to ensure safe operation, you as the user must observe these operating instructions! These operating instructions are part of this product. They contain important notes on commissioning and handling.
  • Page 4: Intended Use

    3. Intended Use This product is an electrically powered helicopter-like model with wireless radio control via the remote control system included in the delivery. The quadrocopter is solely designed for private use in the field of model construction and the operating times associated with it.
  • Page 5: Product Description

    5. Product Description The ready-to-fly quadrocopter has 4 separate motors that drive one propeller each. Concurrent acceleration of all propellers permits the quadrocopter to lift off of the ground and hover stably in the air at the corresponding propeller speeds. For stabilisation in flight, the quadrocopter has elaborate gyro electronics able to recognise uncontrolled movements of the model and balance them out without delay.
  • Page 6: Safety Notes

    6. Safety Notes In case of damage caused by non-compliance with these operating instructions, the warranty/ guarantee 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 7: B) Before Commissioning

    b) Before Commissioning • Always first switch on the transmitter and then connect the flight battery to the quadrocopter. This is the only way for an attunement function to take place between transmitter and receiver, so that your model will react reliably to the control commands of your transmitter. •...

    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. Ensure that you observe the following general information and safety information when handling batteries and rechargeable batteries.

    9. Setting up the Transmitter In the further course of these instructions, figures in the text always refer to the adjacent figure or the figures within the section. References to other figures are indicated with the corresponding figure number. a) Inserting the Batteries The power supply of the transmitter requires 2 AA/mignon batteries (e.g.

    b) Switching on the Transmitter Move the control lever for the pitch and yaw functions (also see figure 1, item 9) to the bottom position right at your body. Slide the on/off switch (also see figure 1, item 6) from the left position "OFF"...
  • Page 12: Commissioning Of The Quadrocopter

    10. Commissioning of the Quadrocopter a) Charging the Flight Battery Caution, important! Even though this would easily be possible when operating the model later, never charge the flight battery when installed for reasons of safety. Always remove the flight battery from the model for recharging! Place the flight battery on a fire-proof underground when charging and do not charge the battery unsupervised.
  • Page 13: B) Checking The Drive

    b) Checking the Drive Before commissioning your quadrocopter, you need to check the drive. Only when all four propellers run smoothly and perfectly round can the model fly with the lowest en- ergy consumption. For this reason, you should check the drive propeller function briefly before each flight.
  • Page 14: D) Connecting The Flight Battery

    d) Connecting the Flight Battery Move the control lever for the pitch and yaw functions (also see figure 1, item 9) to the bottom position and switch on the transmitter with the on/off switch (also see figure 1, item 6). The transmitter emits two short signals and the transmitter LED (also see figure 1, item 1) flashes.
  • Page 15: E) Basic Information Relevant For Controlling Of Quadrocopters

    e) Basic Information Relevant for Controlling of Quadrocopters Before you fly your model, you should first familiarise yourself with the control possibilities open to you and thereby be able to fly safely. The symmetrical setup of the model makes it very difficult to assign the alignment (front/rear). This is why there is a blue LED between the two front propellers and a red LED between the two rear ones.
  • Page 16 Yaw Function The two right-ward turning and the two left-ward turning propellers balance out the torques acting on the model. The quadrocopter hovers stably. If the control lever for the pitch and yaw function (also see figure 1, item 9) is moved to the left, the electronics in the model will increase the speed of the propeller turning to the right (clockwise) viewed from above and at the same time reduce the speed of the propellers turning to the left (counter-clockwise).
  • Page 17: F) Practical Flight Advice For The First Start

    Nod Function The nod function allows you to move your quadrocopter forward and backward (see figure 11). This is also controlled with the right control lever (also see figure 1, item 4). If the lever is slightly pushed to the front, the electronics in the quadrocopter change the propeller speeds so that the model will turn to the front slightly and thus also fly forward.
  • Page 18: G) Trimming The Quadrocopter

    When the red and blue LEDs at the quadrocopter start to flash, the flight battery has reached its lower voltage limit. In this case, end your flight without delay and charge the flight battery again to avoid harmful deep discharge of the flight battery.
  • Page 19 Nod trimming: If the quadrocopter tries to drift forward, reduce the speed until the quadrocopter is safely on its landing struts again. Push the bottom trim button for the nod function several times (also see figure 1, item 2). Push the pitch lever carefully forward and check if the adjustment was sufficient. Repeat the procedure until the model does not show any tendency to drift forward.
  • Page 20: Switching Between Beginner And Sport Mode

    11. Switching between Beginner and Sport Mode The remote control offers the option of operating the quadrocopter in the beginner or sport mode. In the beginner mode, the quadrocopter reacts less strongly to the control commands of the transmitter and thus can be controlled very precisely.
  • Page 21: Flying In The Headless Mode

    13. Flying in the Headless Mode The movement direction of the quadrocopter always depends on the direction in which the model is aligned with the pilot or from which side the pilot looks at the quadrocopter. It is very easy to give the wrong command if you are not looking at the model from behind, but from the side or front.
  • Page 22: Return Function

    14. Return Function The quadrocopter has a return function that will make it fly backwards on its own, i.e. in the opposite direction of the one in which it was aligned at activation (see figure 18, ill. A). As in headless mode, it is not relevant in which direction the front of the quadrocopter is currently pointing (see figure 18, ill.
  • Page 23: Calibration Of The Position Sensors

    15. Calibration of the Position Sensors If the quadrocopter does not hover stably in place, but keeps flying in a particular direction, this can be fixed with the trim. If the trim must be adjusted very far, you may need to recalibrate the position sensors in the model. Proceed as follows: Switch the transmitter on and then take the quadrocopter into operation.
  • Page 24: Maintenance And Care

    16. Maintenance and Care Clean the exterior of the model and the remote control only with a soft, dry cloth or brush. Never use abrasive cleaning agents or chemical solutions as these could damage the surfaces of the casings. The propellers must move smoothly and the motor shafts must neither be bent nor have any play in their bearings. Propellers that are torn, snapped off or where small parts have broken off must always be replaced.
  • Page 25: Disposal

    17. Disposal a) Product Electronic devices are recyclable and should not be disposed of in household waste. Dispose of the prod- uct according to the applicable statutory provisions at the end of its service life. Remove any inserted batteries/rechargeable batteries and dispose of them separately from the product. b) Batteries/Rechargeable Batteries You as the end user are required by law (Battery Ordinance) to return all used batteries/rechargeable batteries.
  • Page 26: Troubleshooting

    19. Troubleshooting Even though the model and the remote control system were built to the state of the art, there may still be malfunctions or faults. For this reason, we would like to give you some information on how to deal with possible problems. Problem Remedy Transmitter doesn’t respond.
