Speed
Flip to left
Flip to right
This drone features three speed settings. Press the speed button to switch between the
three speeds.
Flips and rolls
When the drone is more than three metres off the ground, press the flip and roll button and
move the right joystick either left or right. The drone will then flip in that direction.
Return
If you wish the drone to come back to its take-off point, long press the return button. The
drone will then return to the location where it took off.
Taking photos and recording videos
• Press the capture button and the drone will take a photo
• Press the record button and the drone will start/stop recording video footage
Landing
There are two methods to land the drone:
• Use the left joystick and decrease altitude manually in a desired location and land
• Press the land button. The drone will then automatically slow down and land at its
current location.
Emergency stop
The emergency stop should only be used in emergencies. This will result in the motors
stopping immediately and cause the drone to free fall and crash onto the ground, which
may cause damage. To perform an emergency stop, long press the emergency stop button.
12
Page 13
Headless mode
Note:
When the drone is flying within 30cm from the ground, it will have reduced drag which
may lead to the drone being unstable. The lower the drone flies, the more unstable it
will become.
Note:
The speed of the drone will also slow down, and the faster speed setting will not
function when using this mode.
By default, the flight controls of the drone are based on the position of the nose of the drone
at any given time. For beginners, this may make the drone difficult to control if the drone
changes its orientation.
Activating headless mode allows easier control of the drone as it will move according to the
joystick controls regardless of where the nose is facing. To activate headless mode, long
press the headless mode button. The remote control will beep once to confirm.
To exit headless mode, long press the headless mode button again. The remote control will
beep once to confirm.
Obstacle avoidance mode
It is recommended to turn on the obstacle avoidance mode when flying indoors in an
environment at least 6 x 6m in area.
When turned on, if the drone approaches obstacles on three sides (for example, walls), it will
retreat and move in the opposite direction to avoid contact with the obstacles.
To turn on obstacle avoidance mode, press the obstacle avoidance button. To turn off
obstacle avoidance mode, press the same button again.

Trim adjustment
Forward
Backward
Left
Right
If the drone is deviating off-course or has lost its balance when stationary, trim adjustments
will need to be made.
1. Press the trim button and you will hear a beep.
2. Move the right joystick in the appropriate direction to regain balance on the drone.
For example, if the drone is tilting towards the right, move the joystick left. Make
these adjustments with the joystick until balance is achieved.
3. After adjusting, once there is no input on the remote control for 5–6 seconds, the
remote control will deactivate the trim function and the right joystick can be used
normally.
Camera angle adjustment
• Press the camera up button to adjust the camera angle upwards
• Press the camera down button to adjust the camera angle downwards
Powering off
Long press the power button on the drone and remote control to switch the drone off.
