Low Voltage Cuto (LVC)
When a Li-Po battery is discharged below 3V, the battery may become damaged and may no longer accept a charge.
The nano QX 4-in-1 control unit protects the fl ight battery from over-discharge using Low Voltage Cutoff (LVC). Before the
battery charge decreases too much, LVC becomes active. Power to the motors decrease and the LED on the 4-in-1 control
unit blinks, showing some battery power is reserved for fl ight control and safe landing.
When the motor power decreases, please land the aircraft immediately and recharge the fl ight battery.
Disconnect and remove the Li-Po battery from the aircraft after use to prevent trickle discharge. During storage, make
sure the battery charge does not fall below 3V.
NOTICE: Repeated fl ying to LVC will damage the battery.

Flight Mode and Rate Selection – RTF
RTF
The nano QX RTF model comes with the Blade® MLP4DSM transmitter. This transmitter’s fl ight mode selection feature lets the pilot
change between stability mode and agility mode.
• When powered on, this transmitter is automatically in
stability mode and high rate.
• Change fl ight modes by pressing and releasing the left control stick
while the transmitter is powered on. Change rates by pressing and
releasing the right control stick.
• In low-rate mode, the controls cannot reach their maximum values.
This mode is typically preferred by pilots looking for smoother/
easier control response during fi rst time use.
• In high-rate mode, the controls can reach their maximum values. This mode is typically preferred by experienced
pilots who are ready for fast forward fl ight and aerobatic maneuvers (loops, rolls, etc.).
• Stability mode is shown by the fl ight control board on the quadcopter glowing solid blue. When fl own in stability
mode, the nano QX will limit the bank angle with full control input and return the aircraft to a neutral fl ight position
when you release the elevator/aileron stick. This mode is typically preferred by pilots during fi rst time use.
• Agility mode is shown by the fl ight control board on the quadcopter glowing solid red. When fl own in agility mode,
the model will not return to a neutral fl ight position when you release the controls. This mode is typically preferred
by experienced pilots who are ready for fast forward fl ight and aerobatic maneuvers (loops, rolls, etc.).
Flight Mode Selection – BNF
If you purchased a BNF nano QX, the channel 6 switch on your transmitter will select fl ight modes. When the fl ight
control board on the quadcopter is solid blue, the fl ight mode is set to self-stabilizing mode. When the light is solid red,
the quadcopter is in agility mode. See the table on the following page for specifi c setup information.

4-in-1 Control Unit Function
The unique Control Unit installed in your nano QX is a lightweight combination of main motor electronic speed controls
(ESCs), mixers, the SAFE™ sensor unit, and a DSM2/DSMX receiver. The 4-in-1 unit is also equipped with blue and red
status indicator LEDs.
• Before each fl ight, ALWAYS power on the transmitter before connecting the fl ight battery to the 4-in-1 unit. After each
fl ight, disconnect the fl ight battery from the 4-in-1 unit before powering off the transmitter.
Connecting the fl ight battery before powering on the transmitter can start the binding process. Please see the Transmitter
and Receiver Binding section of this manual for more information.
• The 4-in-1 unit will arm the motors when the throttle stick is in the lowest possible position and the throttle trim is at
the middle or a lower than middle position (the middle position is indicated by a longer than usual beep/tone). If this is
the fi rst test fl ight, or a test fl ight following repairs, also center the rudder, aileron and elevator trims.
• With the transmitter turned on and the transmitter LED glowing solid RED, connect the fl ight battery to the 4-in-1 unit.
• After the fl ight battery is connected, place the nQX on a level surface. The 4-in-1 unit status LED should glow solid
BLUE within a few seconds.
• DO NOT move, sway or pretend to fl y the quadcopter after connecting the fl ight battery. Movement can stop unit initialization and SAFE calibration. If the quadcopter is moved before the 4-in-1 unit status LED glows solid BLUE, disconnect
then connect the fl ight battery to the 4-in-1 unit.
• When the 4-in-1 unit status LED glows solid BLUE, the control unit is initialized and ready for fl ight.
• As long as you set the throttle stick and trim to the correct positions during the initialization process, the ESC or motors
will be armed. Use caution after arming, as the propellers will turn at throttle stick input.

Flying the nano QX
• After confi rming the rotor blades rotate in the correct direction, test the motor response controls.
• Adjust the throttle to a low level of power where the quadcopter begins to get “light” on its landing skids.
• Move the rudder stick a small amount to the right. The nose of the quadcopter should start to rotate
to the right (clockwise).
• Move the rudder stick a small amount to the left. The nose of the quadcopter should start to rotate to the left
(counter-clockwise). If the nose moves to the right, please refer to the Troubleshooting Guide.
• Move the elevator control stick forward. The two REAR landing skids should lift from the fl oor.
• Move the elevator control stick backward. The two FRONT landing skids should lift from the fl oor.
• Move the aileron stick right. The two LEFT landing skids should lift from the fl oor.
• Move the aileron stick left. The two RIGHT landing skids should lift from the fl oor.
• When rotors turn correctly and respond correctly to controls, your nano QX is ready for its fi rst fl ight!
First Flight
• Increase the throttle until the model is approximately 2 ft. (600mm) off the ground in a low-level hover and concentrate
on balancing the throttle stick’s position so that the nano QX holds a steady hover altitude. In some cases, you may
need to make a few short “hops” to an altitude of just a few inches until you become familiar with the control inputs
and trim settings required to maintain a steady hover and altitude.
The nano QX requires minor throttle adjustments to maintain its altitude in hover. Remember to keep these throttle
adjustments as minimal as possible. Large adjustments could result in a loss of control and/or a possible crash.
• While attempting to establish a low-level hover, check to see if any trim adjustments are required to help keep the
nano QX from constantly drifting in various directions. If you fi nd that it constantly drifts without any directional control
input, land the model before making any adjustments to the trim settings. Additional details regarding the
location and function of the trim buttons are in the “Understanding the Primary Flight Controls” section of this manual.
– If the nose of the nano QX rotates to the left or right, adjust the rudder trim.
– If the nano QX continually drifts forward or backward, adjust the elevator trim.
– If the nano QX continually drifts to the left or right, adjust the aileron trim.
Continue making minor trim adjustments until the machine hovers at a low altitude with very little drifting and directional
control input. If the nano QX is your fi rst multicopter or helicopter, seek the help of an experienced pilot to trim the model
for you before making your fi rst fl ight.
• With your nano QX properly trimmed and maintaining a stable low-level hover, practice using the rudder, elevator and
aileron controls to familiarize yourself with the machine’s responses to control inputs. Remember to keep the control
inputs as minimal as possible.
17
EN
Page 18
• When comfortable with low-level hovering, you can transition to hovering and fl ying the nano QX at higher altitudes of
three to four feet. At these higher altitudes, you will become comfortable with the fl ight characteristics of the aircraft.
• Don’t be afraid to set the nano QX down on the ground quickly by lowering the throttle when approaching walls or
other obstacles to help prevent propeller strikes.
Once you have gained experience and confi dence in hovering the nano QX, you can attempt more advanced
maneuvers including:
• Forward Flight
• Backward Flight
• Skidding Takeoffs
TIP: These are all possible with the RTF transmitter. When using a computer transmitter, however, increase the
travel beyond 100% on aileron, elevator or rudder for maximum control authority.
• Pirouettes
• Spot Landings
• Skidding Landings
• Circuits (Circles)
• Figure 8s
• Flips and Rolls
