About Easy and Expert Fly Modes
This drone is designed with 2 play modes.
• Ex(Expert): select this mode when you are ready
to fly at a higher speed and perform stunts.
• Ez (Easy) for beginners and new drone owners.
This operates at a slower speed to help you focus
on basic navigation and develop a feel of the
throttle’ssensitivity.Bydefault,inEzmode,the
stunt and speed options are disabled to prevent
them from being accidentally activated.
• Whenpairingandflyingforthefirsttime,we
recommend you use Ez for practising your
takeoff, steering and landing skills.
Pairing
1. Place the drone on level ground.
2. Turn on the remote control to Ez or Ex. The
remotecontrol’sLEDflashes.
3. Move the throttle all the way up and then down
to pair the remote control with the drone. The
drone’sbladesremainstillduringpairing.When
paired,theLEDsonboththeremotecontrol
and drone light steadily.
Note:Ifpairingfails,turnoffthedroneandremote
control and repeat the steps above, or change
locations to avoid electrical interference.
Fly Your Drone
1. After pairing, with the drone on the ground,
move the throttle forward to ascend. To avoid
ground air turbulence, fly the drone at least 1
ft. (30cm) off the ground.
For advanced users: Hold the remote control with
one hand, resting your thumb on the throttle.
Toss the drone about 4 ft away from you, and
move the throttle forward to fly. The drone
adjusts itself automatically and flies smoothly.
2. Forspeedoptions,pairandflyinEx mode. Push
the steering control in to switch between high
speed (double beep) and low speed (single beep).
IMPORTANT: Ifyourdronecrashesupsidedown,
pull the throttle down and switch off the remote
control first. Never touch the drone when blades are
still moving.
Trim Your Drone
Move the throttle forward and see how the drone
reacts.
Forward/Reverse Movement Trim:Ifthe
drone tends to move forward, press
f
; if
it tends to move backward, press
g
.
Left/Right Slide Trim:Ifthedronetendstoslide
right, press
f
; if it tends to slide left,
press
g
.
Note: The remote control beeps when you press
a trim control but stops beeping when you reach
maximum trim adjustment.
Land Your Drone
1. Slowly move the throttle backward to descend.
Avoid moving the throttle too quickly, as it can
stop the blades instantly causing the drone to
crash.
2. After playing, turn off the remote control and
removethedrone’sbattery.
Perform Stunts
IMPORTANT: Make sure there is enough space for
the drone to perform stunts without crashing into
objects or people.
1. Push the throttle control in so that the remote
control beeps repeatedly to enter stunt mode.
2. Use the steering control to perform stunts:
• Front flip: Move steering forward
• Back flip: Move steering backward
• Barrel roll: Move steering right or left
3. The drone automatically exits stunt mode
after performing a stunt.
Using the Camera
1. InsertamicroSDcard(not
included) in the card slot as
shown. Push the SD card in
until it clicks.
2. During flight, press
once
to take a photo, or press and hold
to record
a video. Release the button to stop recording.
3. After flying, press on the SD card to eject it.
Note: Before inserting the SD card, make sure it has
enough free space. The SD card fits the slot only
one way. Do not force it.
Troubleshooting
Drone does not respond
• Make sure the drone and remote control are
switched on and paired.
• Dronebatterymaybelow.Fullychargethe
battery. See “Charge the Drone Battery”.
• Make sure the drone is within the control range
(65 ft./20 m) and in line of sight.
Drone difficult to control
• The throttle control is very sensitive. Use small, fine
movements to control.
• Practice in Ez (Easy)mode.
• Propellers may be deformed/ damaged. Adjust the
propellersbyhand.Ifyoucannotadjustthem,replace
with the spare propellers.
Drone swerves /runs erratically before take off
1. Withyourdroneandremotecontrolswitchedon
and paired (Ez or Ex mode), place the drone on
level ground.
2. Move the throttle all
the way down and the
steering forward at the
same time. Hold this
position until the drone
LEDsstarttoblinkrapidly.
Then release the controls.
3. TheLEDslightsteadily.Calibrationiscomplete
and you are now ready for takeoff.
See “Trim Your Drone” if necessary to further improve
control of your drone after calibration.

Replace Damaged Propellers
The left and right propellers of the drone
are different (see color and A/B orientation
marking on underside). Make sure you
insert the correct propeller in the correct
location, otherwise the drone will fail to
take off.
To replace a damaged propeller, remove
the old one and press the new one onto
thepropelleraxle.Ifyoucannotremove
the old propeller by hand, carefully use pliers.
WARNING:
• Toavoidinjuryanddamage,inspectthepropellersfornicksandbreaksandmakesurethey
are securely attached before and after each flight. Replace nicked, chipped, cracked or
broken propellers.
• Useonlythesuppliedpropellers.Donotalter,modify,orcustomizethepropellers.
