SAFETY WARNINGS AND OPERATING GUIDELINES
This Product is not intended for use by persons (including children) with
reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience
and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction
concerning use of the Product by a person responsible for their safety.
Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not have access to
the Product.
Even though the Delta Drone may look small and light, there are
important safety considerations to bear in mind when operating this
device. A Drone of this class has motors which are capable of developing
a maximum output in excess of 186 watts, rotating at 10,000 RPM. This
makes the Rotor Blades VERY DANGEROUS when they are in motion.
They are more than capable of injuring people and damaging property.
For these reasons, always observe the following guidelines:
• DO NOT fly the Drone within 10m of people anywhere. Remember,
your Drone weighs nearly 1 kilogram and is more than capable of hurting
someone severely or damaging the environment around it. Consider
your personal liability when you choose to operate your Delta Drone.
• DO NOT attempt to handle or catch the Drone while it is in operation.
• DO NOT attempt to handle the Drone while the Rotor Blades are still
spinning.
• DO NOT allow others to approach the Drone while it is in operation
and the Rotor Blades are in motion.
• Always make sure that you have completely “disarmed” the Drone
and removed each Rotor Blade before handling.
• Always maintain Visual Line-of-Sight (VLOS) with the Drone.
• Always fly between ocial sunrise and ocial sunset, local time.
• Always stay below 330ft (100m) in height.
• Always ensure that your visibility has a range of at least 1.8 miles (3km).
• Never engage in careless or reckless manoeuvres. Consider the
impact reckless behaviour might have on other Drone enthusiasts
and future Pilots.
• Always conduct a pre-flight inspection based on the Pre-Flight Checklist
included with your Delta Drone. Always carry your Pre-Flight Checklist
on your person, when you intend to operate your Drone.
7
EN
• Never operate your Drone when intoxicated or when you are
incapacitated in any other way.
Delta Drone Features.
The Delta Drone is an easy to fly, GPS enabled Quadcopter.
Suitable for both new Pilot’s and experienced Drone flyers, alike.
If you are new to the fun of flying Drones, you can expect to be up
and flying in a short time. Of course you need to familiarise yourself
with the safety, operating and controls of the Delta Drone first!
Give yourself time to become accustomed to the feel of the Drone
and eect of the controls.
If you ever suspect that you are losing control of your Drone, you can
simply hit the Return to Home button (RTH) and your Drone should
return to its Take-o Location, accurate to 5 metres.
The Delta Drone features 3 modes:
1) Manual Mode
2) GPS Position Hold
3) Smart Orientation Mode (SOM)
These three modes are accessed by using the switch on the top right
of the Delta Drone Transmitter.
The Transmitter also hosts the Return to Home Button. This is located
in the centre of the Transmitter and has an image of a house on it.
When the Mode Switch, the Left Throttle Stick and the Return to Home
button are not in the correct position, you will not be able to ‘arm’ your
Drone and the Transmitter’s smart alarms will sound to warn you.
The Transmitter also features a Battery Light, located under the RTH
button. This light will change colour as the batteries in the Transmitter
run down. The Delta Drone Transmitter is powered by 4 x AA batteries
(not included).
The Delta Drone battery is capable of powering the Drone for up to 17
minutes of flight time. This will be dependent on the manner in which the
Drone is piloted and the conditions of the flight.
8
EN

LOW VOLTAGE ALERT
The Low Voltage Alert is trigged when the battery has less than 2 minutes
of flight time left. When the LVA is triggered, the Drone should be landed
as soon as possible to prevent an unexpected loss in power. If the Drone
loses power completely, the Drone will hard-land which can damage the
Drone and its components.
[WARNING] Failure to land the Drone when the LVA is triggered may result
in a significant reduction of battery longevity and re-charge ability.
FAILSAFE MODE
The Drone features a Failsafe Mode that will return the Drone to its Take-o
Location in the event that the Drone:
• Loses Transmitter signal.
• Is flown beyond the range of the Transmitter.
• The RTH (Return to Home) button is pressed.
If one of these events is triggered, the Drone will enter RTH Mode and
return to its Take-o Location.
[WARNING] Failsafe Mode will only engage if the Drone has correctly
acquired GPS Lock (indicated by a solid Yellow LED Status Light).
[WARNING] Taking-o without acquiring GPS Lock will prevent the
Failsafe Mode from activating and may cause the Drone to crash
or be lost upon landing.

TRANSMITTER SPECIFICATIONS
Transmitter Diagram:
The Transmitter features a number of dierent modes to control the Drone.
There are 3 mode switch positions on the Transmitter:
Position 1 Manual Mode
This Mode allows the Drone be flown under
full manual control, without GPS assistance.
The altitude and position of the Delta Drone
is determined completely by the Pilot. The
Drone will orient according to the direction it
was placed prior to being ‘armed’.
[WARNING] The rear of the Drone is always
the side with the circular Status LED. Take
note of which direction the Drone is facing,
especially when in Manual Mode.
Manual Mode is required to arm the motors and to Lock GPS.
Always start in Manual Mode when you turn on your Drone.
If the Drone is not in Manual Mode for arming and GPS lock,
the smart alarm will sound.

Position 2 GPS Position Hold.
GPS Position Hold does not change the way the
Drone is oriented. It simply locks the position
of the aircraft in place – in a hover. The altitude
is fixed when the Throttle is at 50%. It will only
increase or decrease in altitude when the Throttle
is pushed repectively to the 70% or 30% position.
Position 3 Smart Orientation Mode.
Smart Orientation Mode (SOM) is a special
function that changes the way the Drone handles
orientation. It utilises the internal compass and
GPS co-ordinates and will lock the orientation
of the Drone in place, relative to the direction
the Drone was facing when it was first turned
on and armed.
Smart Orientation Mode enables you to control
the movement of the Delta Drone from your
point of view regardless of which way the Drone
is facing. You will find this mode useful for quick
positioning and returning the Drone to you when needed.
New Pilots who have not mastered Pitch and Roll movements will enjoy
using this mode because it allows you to fly in any direction without
having to worry about orientation.
So how does SOM work?
Smart Orientation Mode allows you to control the Drone relative to its
direction from the Take-o Location (i.e. where it was armed) but this
requires GPS Lock. This is why it is always important to allow the Drone
to obtain GPS Lock before take-o (indicated by a solid Yellow LED Light
Status).
Smart Orientation Mode uses the Drone’s position relative to where you
first armed the motors. This means no matter where the Drone is, pulling
the Pitch (Right Stick) back will cause it to return towards its Take-o
Location, regardless of the Drone’s actual heading. This applies no matter
where the Drone is, even when it flies behind the Pilot/Take-o Location.
13
EN
If the Pilot holds full Right Roll, the Drone will fly in a circle, clockwise
around the Pilot (although the circle’s radius may tend to grow slightly with
each orbit due to “lag”)
Also, remember that GPS is only accurate to around 10 metres, so close flybys of the Take-o Location should be avoided.
To avoid confusion, you should ensure the controls are correct from takeo. You should arm the Drone while you are standing behind it, so that
both you and Drone are both facing in the same direction. Please note,
SOM can be turned on while in flight.
Return to Home
The Return to Home function is triggered by
pressing the RTH button on the Transmitter,
indicated by the image of a house.
This button will only trigger the RTH function
when the Drone has been initialised with GPS
Lock.
When the RTH button is pressed, the Drone
will lift to a height of approximately 15 metres
and begin to return to its Take-o Location.
[WARNING] RTH does not detect obstacles and the Pilot should ALWAYS
be aware of any obstructions. Please note, you will be able to manoeuvre
the Drone in this mode to safely land. Ensure that you have given a
clearance area of 5m (Safe Landing Zone) before attempting to land the
Drone.

To engage the Throttle and control the Drone’s elevation and power, the
Left Stick uses a North/South movement. North to ascend and South to
descend.
To change the Yaw of the Drone, the Left Stick uses an East/West
movement. East to Yaw right and West to Yaw left.
[WARNING] In Manual Mode (Position 1) pushing the Throttle down
completely to 0% will stop the motors spinning and cause the Drone to
drop dramatically in-flight and even crash. Take EXTREME PRECAUTION
as this may damage persons, property and the Drone itself.

19
EN
Charge Time
The Delta Drone battery should take approximately 3 hours to charge.
Battery Life
To ensure the longevity of your Delta Drone battery, never run the battery
too low as this will impact the battery health and future flight time. Your
Delta Drone battery should have a life of over 400 cycles, provided proper
charging and maintenance is employed.
Battery Life - Flight Time
The Delta Drone flight time is determined by a number of factors; weather,
temperature, altitude and flight-style are all major contributors to how long
the Drone can remain in-flight.
Under optimal conditions, you should get approximately 15-17 minutes of
flight time.
The age and quality of a battery are also key components to ensuring
longer flight times.
Please follow all recommended battery care and charging instructions
within this User Guide.

ROTOR BLADES
It is important that only Kaiser Baas Delta Drone Rotor Blades are fitted to
the Delta Drone. Never use any third party accessories or tools.
The Delta Drone has two types of Rotor Blade.
The first has a Silver Nut and the second features a Black Nut. These
colours are to signify which motor each Rotor Blade should be fitted to.
The Silver and Black nuts correspond to a motor with the same colour top.
Installation
Before installation, remove all warning labels from the Drone motors before
attaching the Rotor Blades.
Attach the Rotor Blade with the correct coloured nut, to the corresponding
motors with Silver/Black tops.
22
EN
Refer to the icon on the Rotor Blade to determine which direction to
tighten the blade in. Rotor Blades should be tightened by hand only.
[WARNING] Never use the Rotor Blade Removal Tool to tighten the
blades. The Blades are self-tightening and do not require much force
to install. Over-tightening may damage the thread and cause instability
during flight.
Removal
Please use the included Rotor Blade Removal Tool to detach the
blades. Fit the Rotor Blade Removal Tool into the motor housing to stop
unnecessary movement and then simply unscrew the Rotor Blade in the
OPPOSITE direction to the icon on the blade.
23
EN
Rotor Blade Warning
Never use Rotor Blades with any signs of damage or wear and tear. This
includes chips, scratches and cracks. Damaged Rotor Blades can cause the
Drone to fail in-flight and may result in damage to persons or property.
ALWAYS ENSURE that the correct Rotor Blade is matched to the correct
motor, using the nut colour as a guide.
Never touch the Drone or the Rotor Blades when the motors are spinning.
ROTOR GUARDS
New Pilots are strongly advised to purchase the Delta Drone Rotor Guards
and Safety Line accessory (KBA15011 - Sold Separately).
The Rotor Guards and Safety Line will provide some protection for the
Rotor Blades, preventing them from coming into contact with obstacles
and causing additional damage.
They will also protect the Rotor Blades from damage in the event of a false
take-o.
It is important never to lift the Drone by the Rotor Guards or Safety Line.
Installation of Rotor Guards
Step 1. Remove two screws from the bottom of the motors
24
EN
Step 2. Place the Rotor Guards in the designated slots
Step 3. Use the larger screws provided to fix
the Rotor Guards in place
25
EN
Step 4. Attach the Safety Line through the allocated points to add
another level of protection and structural stability to the Drone.
PRE-FLIGHT AND FLIGHT PLANNING
Please consult the Pre-Flight Checklist before EVERY flight.
At a minimum:
• Ensure that you are at least 5.5kms from any airfield and you are adhering
to any regulations and laws laid out by your local aviation authority.
• Do a COMPLETE check of your surroundings, look for hazards above, in
front and behind you.
• Be especially aware of things like power lines and nearby people and
animals. If these hazards exist, DO NOT deploy your Alpha Delta Drone
and consider a new Take-o Location.
26
EN
POWERING-ON THE DRONE
Open the battery compartment and insert the Delta Drone battery all the
way, with the Yellow and White battery connections facing outwards.
Connect the Yellow battery power lead to the Drone. You will hear a beep,
signalling the battery has been connected successfully.
Neatly and carefully push the all connections into the compartment and
close the cover.
Place the Drone on unobstructed, stable ground. Ensure you have
followed the Pre-Flight Checklist completely and are adhering to your local
regulations.
Ensure the Status LED is facing towards you. This ensures the Drone is
starting in the same direction and orientation as you, the Pilot.
Please wait until the Status LED indicates it has finished the System-Check
and acquired GPS Lock.
FLIGHT
Again, please consult the Pre-Flight Checklist before EVERY flight.
It is highly recommended that you have an experienced Drone Pilot
accompany you for supervision. Ensure that you have followed the
guidelines and done your own research on where it is safe and permitted to
fly the Drone.
To take-o you must ensure that the Transmitter is set to Position 1 (Manual
Mode). Turn on your Transmitter.
Ensure that the Throttle is in the lowest position.
27
EN
ARM THE MOTORS
The Drone must first be armed and the motors unlocked prior to take-o.
To arm the motors, move the Throttle to the far bottom right (see markings
on the Transmitter) and hold for 5 seconds. The LED indicator will flash and
change to solid Yellow – indicating GPS Lock.
The motors will start to spin, indicating they have been armed.
Take-O
Ensure the area is open and any spectators have been briefed. Ensure no
spectator is within the 10m Safe Landing Zone.
The Status LED should be facing the Pilot. This is the rear of the Drone.
Any control in Position 1 (Manual Mode) or Position 2 (GPS Position Hold)
will correspond to the direction the Drone is facing, so be aware of any
changes in the Yaw angle.

You are strongly encouraged to wait for GPS Lock before take-o.
Failure to lock satellites will prevent Mode 2 and Mode 3 from being able
to be used and will also prohibit the Drone from determining a Take-o
Location. This may result in the loss of your Drone, should it venture out of
Visual-Line-of-Sight (VLOS).
NOTE: if your Drone is inactive on the ground for a period of over 10
seconds, you will need to re-arm, using the Throttle and markings on the
Transmitter.
Lift the Left Stick to engage the Throttle smoothly, while keeping the
Yaw/Pitch centred. The Drone needs to be 1 metre above the ground to
prevent any “Ground Eect” or ‘backwash’ of air from disrupting the flight.
When the Drone is near the ground, pay special attention to its position to
prevent serious harm to persons or property.
New Pilots are strongly advised to switch the Transmitter to Position 2
(GPS Position Hold) or Position 3 (SOM) for ease of flight.
Only proceed with flight if you have performed all the Pre-flight checks and
are familiar with all the functions of the Delta Drone. If needed, re-read the
User Guide and other instructions regularly.
[WARNING] Please note that attaching the Gimbal will change the way
the Drone flies, as it is now bearing more weight. Pay extra attention
during take-o to ensure that the Aircraft does not tip over in a false takeo. Always used the included Stablisers.
29
EN
FLIGHT CONDITIONS
Always follow legislation set by local authorities on the rules and
regulations surrounding where you are permitted to operate your Drone.
Never fly your Drone in adverse weather conditions including rain, snow,
fog or winds exceeding 10 knots.
Never fly your Drone near large crowds or above unwilling spectators.
Make sure that you have the full permission of people within flying range of
your Delta Drone and DO NOT fly your Drone where people have not given
permission or have requested that you not fly.
Flight Limits and Geo-Fencing
The maximum range of the Delta Drone is 1,312ft (400m).
Your Delta Drone is equipped with a pre-programmed geo-fence that limits
the flight-distance of the Drone to 984ft (300m) horizontally and 328ft
(100m) vertically, from the Transmitter. This geo-fence programming has
been fitted for the safety of you and others and prevents your Delta Drone
from venturing out of your VLOS.
LANDING
The safest way for new Pilots to land the Drone is to use the RTH button on
the Transmitter.
Please note that when the RTH button has been engaged, that the Drone
will not automatically be able to avoid obstacles. You should take special
care to manoeuvre the Drone to a safe landing position.
Position 2 (GPS Position Hold) allows the Pilot to safely descend and land
the Drone. Always be mindful of how fast the Drone is descending, to
ensure a safe landing.
When landing in Position 1 (Manual Mode), be very careful when lowering
the Throttle, as flicking the toggle straight down will disarm the motors,
causing an immediate loss of power.
[WARNING] When landing with the Gimbal, please be aware that the
Drone will handle dierently. We strongly advise that you land on soft
terrain, to ensure the attached camera and gimbal are not damaged in the
event of a false landing.
30
EN
POST-FLIGHT
Disarm the Motors.
To disarm the motors, push the Throttle to its lowest position and then
push it to the far bottom left and hold for approximately 5 seconds.

FAQ
Q1. My Drone does not take-o?
A1. Make sure that your Delta Drone is powered-on and the motors are
armed, as per the User Guide instructions. Refer to the User Guide for
detailed information on how to operate the Drone safely.
A2. The battery may be flat. Please ensure the Drone battery is fully
charged and that the Transmitter batteries are fresh.
Q2. My Transmitter is beeping. Make it stop!
A1. Ensure that the Transmitter is set to Mode 1 (Manual Mode) and the
Return to Home button is not de-pressed. Also check that the Throttle
(Left Stick) is completely down, in the lowest position.
Q3. My Drone is beeping! What does this mean?
A1. If the Drone is beeping, this more than likely means that the battery
is close to being empty. What you are hearing is the Low Voltage Alarm.
Please refer to the User Guide for further details.
A2. The Drone could also be beeping to let you know the Position on the
Transmitter is incorrect or the RTH button is de-pressed. Set your Delta
Drone Transmitter to Position 1 (Manual Mode) and check the RTH button.
Q4. My Drone keeps tipping when I take-o!
A1. It is often dicult for new Pilots to get used to the take-o procedure.
To take-o without tipping, give the Drone a smooth lift of power with the
Throttle, rather than a quick movement. Once in the air, keep the Drone
level using the Right Stick (Elevator/Aileron). Please go to our YouTube
page for tips on how to safely and easily pilot your Delta Drone.

Q5. My Drone is not stable in the air.
A1. Always arm the motors after the Drone has acquired GPS Lock. Be sure
to place the Drone on level ground before you connect the Drone battery.
Make sure you are using GPS Position Hold or Smart Orientation Mode
(SOM) once in the air.
A2. Make sure the weather conditions are calm and are not interfering with
the stability of the Drone.
A3. There may be other environmental interference. Please ensure you are
in an area free from strong electromagnetic interference.
Q6. I’m not sure where to fly my Drone?
A1. If you are in doubt of where you can fly, always check the local laws and
regulations first! Please follow your local aviation authorities’ guidance on
where, when and how you can fly your Drone. Many areas have designated
RC flying fields where you can fly safely and legally. DO NOT fly in a
confined area, like a small backyard or balcony.
A2. Choose an open, outdoor area away from people, buildings and
airports.
Q7. My Drone freaks me out. What can I do?
A1. Visit our YouTube page and follow our comprehensive tutorials. The
Delta Drone can be quite intimidating but, always make sure you have
read the User Guide entirely and are familiar with all features and safety
precautions before you start flying.
A2. If possible, ask a friend with experience to help you fly.
Q8. A dog is chasing my drone!
A1. Don’t land! That is almost certainly going to either hurt the dog or
cause further stress. Animals are prone to notice Drones when they are
flying close to the ground. We recommend that you raise the Drone
to a higher altitude. You will find this almost always causes animals to
lose interest. Then you can go about bringing the Drone back to you or
continuing the flight.

Q9. Can I attach other cameras to my Drone?
A1. The Delta Drone is designed to support either GoPro™ or Kaiser Baas
Action Cameras. We do not recommend that you attempt to attach any
other camera type to this Drone, as it may seriously aect the balance
or load-bearing ability of your Drone, possibly causing damage to
components, property or people.
