Operating Instructions
Recharging and Battery Replacement
Ensure the helicopter is turned OFF before attempting to charge it.
If left on, it won't charge.
Check the orientation of the power cable carefully when connecting it
to the helicopter. If it feels tough to insert or you need to use force, it's
It'll take 45 – 60 minutes to charge. Don't over-charge the helicopter, and don't leave it connected to
a charger for more than an hour.
Replacing Batteries in the Controller:
The battery compartment is located on the
rear of the controller. Undo the screw with
a precision screwdriver and open the battery
compartment. Only use alkaline batteries.
Don't mix old and new batteries. For more
information on battery useage and safety,
consult page 6.
When charging from a USB port, always connect the USB plug to a USB port without connecting the
helicopter. Ensure the red light in the USB plug lights up. When you connect the helicopter, this light
will turn off. If it does not go out, this indicates that the helicopter is not being charged - check that
the helicopter is turned off, and check the integrity of the connection.
Before you can fly, you need to 'pair' the helicopter and remote together. To do
this, turn on both the helicopter and remote. Select a frequency using the band
selector switch. If flying multiple helicopters, ensure each is on a different band.
Then, push the left stick to minimum. Aim the controller's IR transmitter at the
helicopter. Move the left stick from minimum to maximum (bottom to top)
and back again. The helicopter will now be paired to that controller.

Charge via Remote Control: Open the charging lead
compartment located on the underside of the remote control,
and extend the charging lead. Turn the remote control ON. Plug
the other end into the charging socket on the bottom of the
helicopter. The orange charging LED on the remote control will
be on whilst the helicopter is charging. The red LED will light up
when charging is complete. [If the LED is flashing, then pair the
remote, as described below, and it will then read accurately.]
Charge via USB: Plug the USB end of the charging cable into
a USB port on your computer, or to a stand-alone USB charger.
Then, connect the other end to the helicopter. Never connect
the helicopter to a USB port supplying anything other than 5V
@ 500mA. There is an LED in the USB plug, which will go out
when the helicopter is charging. The LED will light up when
charging is complete, or the helicopter isn't attached to the
cable.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Charging via USB
Pairing the Remote
CAUTION: Do not touch the running
rotors. Do not fly above or near
someone's head. Adult supervision is
required at all times.
