Charging Warnings
Battery Charging
First Flight Preparation
• Remove and inspect contents
• Begin charging the fl ight battery
• Program your computer transmitter (BNF only)
• Familiarize yourself with the controls
• Install the fl ight battery in the quadcopter
(once it has been fully charged)
• Bind your transmitter
• Find a suitable area for fl ying
Flying Checklist
❏ Always turn the transmitter on fi rst
❏ Plug the fl ight battery into the lead from the 3-in-1 ESC
❏ Allow the receiver and ESC to initialize and arm
❏ Fly the model
❏ Land the model
❏ Unplug the fl ight battery from the 3-in-1 ESC
❏ Always turn the transmitter off last
CAUTION: All instructions and warnings must
be followed exactly. Mishandling of Li-Po batteries can result in a fi re, personal injury and/or property
damage.
• NEVER LEAVE CHARGING BATTERIES UNATTENDED.
• NEVER CHARGE BATTERIES OVERNIGHT.
• By handling, charging or using the included Li-Po battery,
you assume all risks associated with lithium batteries.
• If at any time the battery begins to balloon or swell,
discontinue use immediately. If charging or discharging,
discontinue and disconnect. Continuing to use, charge
or discharge a battery that is ballooning or swelling can
result in fi re.
• Always store the battery at room temperature in a dry
area for best results.
• Always transport or temporarily store the battery in a
temperature range of 40–120º F (5–49° C).
• Do not store battery or model in a car or direct sunlight.
If stored in a hot car, the battery can be damaged or
even catch fi re.
• Always charge batteries away from fl ammable materials.
• Always inspect the battery before charging.
• Always disconnect the battery after charging, and
let the charger cool between charges.
• Always constantly monitor the temperature of the
battery pack while charging.
• ONLY USE A CHARGER SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED TO
CHARGE LI-PO BATTERIES. Failure to charge the battery
with a compatible charger may cause a fi re resulting in
personal injury and/or property damage.
• Never discharge Li-Po cells to below 3V under load.
• Never cover warning labels with hook and loop strips.
• Never charge batteries outside recommended levels.
• Never charge damaged batteries.
• Never attempt to dismantle or alter the charger.
• Never allow minors to charge battery packs.
• Never charge batteries in extremely hot or cold places
(recommended between 40–120° F or
(5–49° C) or place in direct sunlight.
NOTICE: Charge only batteries that are cool to the touch
and are not damaged. Look at the battery to make
sure it is not damaged e.g., swollen, bent, broken or
punctured.
1. Insert the charger into a USB port.
2. Connect the battery to the charger lead, noting the
correct polarity.
3. Always disconnect the fl ight battery from the charger
immediately upon completion of charging.
CAUTION: Only use chargers specifi cally designed
to charge the included Li-Po battery. Failure to do so
could result in fi re, causing injury or property damage.
CAUTION: Never exceed the recommended
charge rate.
LED Indications
When you make the connection successfully, the LED on
the charger turns solid red, indicating charging has begun.
Charging a fully discharged (not over-discharged) 750mAh
battery takes approximately 60 minutes. The light goes off
when the charge is complete.
CHARGING (Solid Red)
MAX CHARGE (OFF)
CAUTION: Once charging is complete, immedi-

BNF Transmitter Setup
Program your transmitter before attempting to bind or fl y
the quadcopter. Transmitter programming values are shown
below for the Spektrum DX6i, DX7s, DX6, DX7, DX8, DX9
and DX18.
The fi les for models using Spektrum™ transmitters with
AirWare™ software are also available for download online
at www.spektrumrc.com.
Your quadcopter is also compatible with Spektrum DXe
radios with software version 1.3 or higher. Use the directions
below to reverse channel 6, or use the appropriate programming cable and the PC or mobile app to program the DXe.
We recommend downloading the Blade® Zeyrok™ DXe model
setup available at www.spektrumrc.com.
If you are programming your DXe using the PC or mobile
app, make sure the "Transmitter Channels" value is set to
the default of 7. If for any reason this value is changed
to 9, the Zeyrok will bind to the DXe, but will not respond to
control inputs.
If your DXe was included in another Blade Ready To Fly (RTF)
helicopter, the transmitter software will have to be updated
using the appropriate programming cable and either the
PC or mobile app available at www.spektrumrc.com.
Please note, the switch confi guration used for DXe transmitters included with the Blade 230 S RTF and Micro AH-64
Apache RTF varies from the standard DXe layout.
After reversing channel 6, bind the transmitter and
quadcopter normally.
Flight modes are controlled by the Flight Mode switch.
To use the DXe transmitter with the Zeyrok quadcopter, channel 6 must be reversed.
To reverse channel 6:
1. While powering on the DXe, hold the left and right sticks in the top-inside corners
as shown.
2. Re-center the sticks after the transmitter beeps. The LED will fl ash slowly.
3. To select a channel to reverse, move the right stick to the left or right and allow it
to re-center. Move the stick to the right to select the next channel. Move the stick
to the left to select the previous channel. The LED will fl ash rapidly corresponding
to the channel selected, as shown in the table. Select channel 6.
4. To reverse the selected channel, move the right stick up or down. The LED will
change color to indicate the new channel direction.
The LED will fl ash Orange to indicate the channel is normal.
The LED will fl ash Red to indicate the channel is reversed.
5. To store the changes, power off the DXe.
CAUTION: During the subsequent power up, always verify the throttle
direction is correct and keep clear of the motor and rotor blades. Failure to do
so may result in injury or damage to the product.
