SET UP & INSTALLATION
12 - ENG
Ensure the Drone is OFF prior to installation
of modules.
Rotor Blades Assembly
It is important that only Kaiser Baas Seeker
Drone Rotor Blades are tted to the Seeker
Drone. Never use any third-party accessories
or tools.
Your Drone will come ready to y with Rotor
Blades attached. If you need to replace them,
please refer to the following guide:
Disassembly
Use the provided screwdriver to untighten the
screw in an anti-clockwise direction.
Remove the Rotor Blade by pulling up and o
the motor axis bar.
Assembly
Insert the Rotor Blade onto the motor axis bar.
Only install the Rotor Blades to the
corresponding clockwise/anti-clockwise motor.
A letter is marked on each blade to indicate
which motor it should go on.
Incorrect installation will cause severe
instability. Refer to the diagram.
Use the provided screwdriver to tighten the
screws in a clockwise direction.
[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-ight and
may result in damage to persons or property.
[WARNING] Never touch the Drone or the Rotor
Blades when the motors are spinning.
Rotor Guard
It is highly recommended to install the rotor
blade guards before using the drone to ensure
safety.
When the LEDs are ashing you should bring
the Drone to a complete stop. Failure to land
the Drone when the Low Battery signal starts
ashing may cause a sudden loss of power
endangering persons, property and the Drone.

Pairing & Calibration
To operate your Drone, you must rstpair the
Drone to your Remote Control Transmitter
before every ight. Ensure your Drone and
Remote Control Transmitterare fully charged
and follow these stepsin order:
1. Turn on your Drone by holding the power
button for 2 seconds.
2. The Drone lights will ash indicating it is
ready to pair to a Remote Control.
3. Turn on the Remote Controller . You will see
the red light on the Remote Control ashing.
4. Using the Left Throttle/Yaw Stick move it
to the maximum UP position and then to
down position.
5. You will hear two beeps from the Remote
Controller and the Drone LED lights will
stop ashing indicating the Drone is now
paired to the Remote Controller.
Before every ight it is important to calibrate
your Drone.
Calibration ensures the Gyroscopes are reset
and the Drones Direction/Heading is xed.
Always calibrate with the Drone and the Pilot
facing the same direction.
To Calibrate; Place the Drone on level ground,
pull the left and right joystick to the bottom
right corner. The lights at the bottom of the

REMOTE FLIGHT OPERATION
15 - ENG
When operating the Drone, it is important for
new Pilots to ensure that the Drone’s heading
is facing away from you. The Remote Control
Remote Controller has two control sticks, left
stick (Throttle/Yaw) and right stick (Pitch/Roll).
Left Stick
This controls the Drone’s Throttle (Up/Down)
and Yaw (Left/Right).
Right Stick
This controls the Drone’s Pitch (Forwards/
Backwards) and Roll (Left/Right) movement.
To Take-O
To Take-O you must rst bind the Drone to
your Remote Controller . Refer to the Drone/
Remote Controller Binding Section.
Once the drone is paired with the controller,
Press the Take-O/Landing Button to arm
the Drone.

The Rotor Blades will start to spin indicating
it is ready to y. Press the Take-O/Landing
once again or push the Throttle/Yaw Left Stick
slightly UP to y.
The Seeker Drone features Auto-Hover,
releasing the Throttle/Yaw stick will keep
the drone at the same altitude. Pushing the
Throttle/Yaw Left Stick UP or DOWN will
ascend or descend the Drone.
To Land
Whilst the Drone is in ight press the Take-O/
Landing button. The Drone will then descend to
the same altitude/level from which you armed it.
FLIGHT MODES FLIGHT MODES
17 - ENG 18 - ENG
The Drone features a number of Flight Modes
and settings.
Speed Modes
There are 3 Speed modes on the Seeker Drone.
They can be cycled through on the Remote
Control Transmitter by pressing the Speed
Mode Button. Each mode is indicated by an
increasing series of beeps.
Mode 1-Beginner Mode
This is the default operating mode that the
Seeker Drone initializes in. Please ensure that
you use this mode in a large open space with
no obstacles.
The sensitivity is very low and is suitable for
beginner pilots. It is less responsive and more
forgiving.
Headless Mode
Headless Mode allows you to control the
Drone relative to its direction from the take-o
location. This means you can y the drone
without worrying which direction it is facing.
Before you use Headless Mode, ensure the
Drone’s Direction/Heading is facing away
fromthe pilot/operator.
To enable Headless Mode, simply press
the Headless Mode Button on the Remote
Controller as indicated in the diagram. You
will hear a short beep and the drone light will
start ashing.
To avoid confusion, you should ensure the
controls are correct from take-o. Headless
Mode can be turned on while in ight.
You should arm the Drone while you are
standing behind it, so that you and Drone are
both facing in the same direction. Failure to do
this will result in incorrect control.
Mode 2-Intermediate Mode
To enable this mode, press the Speed
Mode Button ONCE. The Remote Control
Transmitter will beep twice indicating you
are in Intermediate Mode. This mode is more
responsive and ies faster.
Mode 3-Pro Mode
To enable this mode, press the Speed Mode
Button TWICE. The Remote Control Transmitter
will beep three times indicating you are in Pro
Mode. This is the most responsive and fastest
mode the Drone can operate in. This is only
recommended for pilots with experience ying
the Drone.

determine the Drones orientation for it to return.
Warning: This mode does not use GPS or have
any position data.
To enable Return Mode
Fly the Drone in front of you, ensuring the path
to you is free of obstacles and persons.
Press the return button on the Remote Control-
ler as indicated in the diagram. You will hear
multiple beeps beep and the drone light will
start ashing.
The Drone will y backwards towards you.
Always keep control of the Drones altitude and
speed using the Left Throttle/ Yaw Stick. When
it has reached your position or you want to
stop simply move the Pitch / Roll Right Stick
Forward to cancel Return Mode.

FAQ
26 - ENG
The Drone LED lights are ashing. What does
this mean?
The Drone has insucient battery power.
Please charge the Drone battery.
● The Drone is not paired with a Remote
Control Transmitter. Refer to the Drone
Setup/Installation section.
The Drone’s Rotor Blades spin but the Drone
does not take-o?
Insucient Battery Power. If the Drone LEDs are
ashing and the Drone Rotor blades are spinning
without any lift, recharge the Drone battery. The
Rotor Blades are distorted. Replace them with
only ocial Kaiser Baas replacement blades.
Why is the Drone is shaking and not stable
in ight?
Please check to ensure the Rotor Blades are not
damaged. Check that all the motors are spinning.
The Drone is out of control and is dicult to
y. How can I make it easier?
Prior to every ight we recommendyou calibrate
the Drone. To calibrate push the Left Throttle/
Yaw Stick and the Right Pitch/Roll Stick to the
bottom left and hold for 2 seconds until you see
the LED indicator lights on the drone start to
ash rapidly. The Drone LEDS will stop ashing
when calibration is complete.
Drone goes out of control and crashes
We would suggest you do recalibration and
then place the drone on leveled oor for 10
seconds.
