BATTERY INSTALLATION AND CHARGING
Follow these safety precautions when operating this drone.
Adult supervision required.
Do not turn on the drone unless controller has been turned on first.
Turn off controller and drone when not in use.
Do not touch the spinning blades or fly over another person’s head.
Do not submerge in water. This could damage electronic assemblies.
Keep your face and body as well as all spectators away from the rotors whenever the battery is connected.
Stay clear of buildings, trees, and power lines.
AVOID flying in or near crowded areas.
DO NOT fly close to people, children, or pets.
Maintain a safe pilot-to-drone distance while flying.
Your drone should not be considered a toy, but rather a small, working model. If not operated correctly, the
model could possibly cause injury to you or spectators and damage to property.
Do not alter or modify the model, as doing so may result in an unsafe or unflyable model.
You must check the operation of the model before every flight to insure that the model has remained structurally sound.
Do not operate in bad weather, including extremely high temperatures, heavy snow, high wind, or rain.
Do not fly in restricted air space.
CAUTION: Changes or modifications to this product not expressly approved by the party responsible for
compliance may void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
BATTERY PRECAUTIONS
To avoid fire, serious injury, and property damage, observe the following safety guidelines when using,
charging, or storing your batteries.
The drone is equipped with a rechargeable 3.7V LiPo battery. Please pay attention to the following cautions.
LiPo BATTERY USAGE
Parental guidance is recommended when installing batteries.
Do not attempt to use this charger with NiCd or NiMH battery packs.
Do not attempt to use a damaged battery.
Disconnect the battery from the charger and carefully move the battery to a fireproof location if the battery
begins to swell or smoke!
Do not attempt to charge a battery if it is swollen or hot.
Do not allow the batteries to come into contact with any kind of liquid.
Do not leave batteries out in the rain or near a source of moisture.
Do not drop the battery into water. If the inside of the battery comes into contact with water, chemical
decomposition may occur, potentially resulting in the battery catching on fire, and may even lead to an explosion.
Electrolytes in the battery are highly corrosive. If any electrolytes make contact with your skin or eyes, immediately
wash the affected area with fresh running water for at least 15 minutes, and then see a doctor immediately.
Land your model immediately when the LEDs flash to indicate that the battery power is low. Recharge the battery before
attempting another flight. A dangerous situation can occur when attempting to recharge an over-discharged battery!
If the battery falls into water with the aircraft during flight, take it out immediately and put it in a safe and
open area. Maintain a safe distance from the battery until it is completely dry. Never use the battery again, and
dispose of the battery properly as described in the Battery Disposal section below.
Do not put batteries in a microwave oven or in a pressurized container.
Do not place loose battery cells on any conductive surface, such as a metal table.
BATTERY INSTALLATION AND CHARGING
BATTERY INSTALLATION AND CHARGING
BATTERY INSTALLATION AND CHARGING
Do not put the loose cells in a pocket, bag, or drawer where they may short-circuit against other items or where
the battery terminals could be pressed against each other.
Never disassemble or modify pack wiring in any way or puncture cells.
ALWAYS keep a supply of sand accessible when charging. Dumping sand on the battery will extinguish a LiPo chemical fire.
ALWAYS KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN
Do not dispose of battery into fire or heat.
Do not use or leave battery near a heat source, such as fire or a heater.
Do not drop, strike, impale, or manually short-circuit the battery.
Do not disassemble or alter the battery.
Turn off the power switch and disconnect the battery after use.
BATTERY CHARGING
Do not attach the batteries to wall outlets or car charger sockets directly, and always use the Quadcopter Drone
provided USB charging cable.
Never charge inside a vehicle.
Do not place the charger or any battery on a flammable surface or near combustible materials while in use.
Do not leave the charger unattended while charging. Disconnect the battery and unplug the charger
immediately if either becomes hot! However, it is normal for the charger to get warm.
Do not charge the battery immediately after flight, because the battery temperature may be too high.
Do not charge the battery until it cools down to near room temperature. Charging the battery outside of the
temperature range of 41°F [5°C] – 104°F [40°C] may lead to leakage, overheating, or battery damage.
Always disconnect the battery and remove the charger from the USB port when not in use.
Disconnect the charger when not in use.
Examine the charger regularly for damage to the cord, plug, enclosure, or other parts. Never use a damaged charger.
DO NOT clean the charger with denatured alcohol or other flammable solvents.
A battery when not in use will lose its charge automatically. Charging or discharging too often may reduce the
life of the battery.
BATTERY STORAGE
Keep batteries out of the reach of children and pets.
Do not leave the battery near heat sources such as a furnace or heater. DO NOT leave the batteries inside of a
vehicle on hot days. The ideal storage temperature is 71.6°F [22°C] – 82.4°F [28°C].
Keep the battery dry. Never drop the battery into water.
Keep the battery away from metal objects such as glasses, watches, jewelry, and hairpins.
Never transport a damaged battery or a battery with power level higher than 50%.
BATTERY DISPOSAL
DO NOT place the battery in regular trash containers. Strictly follow your local regulations
regarding the disposal and recycling of batteries.
BATTERY MAINTENANCE
Never use the battery when the temperature is outside the range of 41°F [5°C] – 104°F [40°C]
Never allow the battery temperature to exceed 140°F [60°C].

DRONE ASSEMBLY
FRONT
Step 1
Turn the quadcopter over on a flat surface so the bottom of the unit is facing
up. It is recommended that you place a towel or other cloth under the
quadcopter to protect it from getting scratched or scratching surfaces.
Step 2
Insert the landing struts into the bottom of the quadcopter. Struts should
align parallel to each other from front to back of the drone, leaving the
battery compartment unobstructed.
BACK
Step 3
Using the mini-screwdriver that was included with the kit, install 2 of the
10mm screws into the holes provided on the landing struts. Repeat this
process on the opposite side.
Step 4
Turn the quadcopter over so it is standing on its landing struts and install the
blade protectors on each corner. Blade protectors snap into place, and do
NOT require any screws.
NOTE: Blade protectors will help protect the propeller blades from being
damaged during contact with objects or surfaces. In the event a propeller is
damaged, it can be replaced with one of the 4 extra propeller blades supplied
with this kit. Blades are angled differently and numbered on the bottom
(Circled 1 or 2) and must be replaced with the same numbered blade.
