Safety

Basic safety guidelines

To ensure safe operation of the product, follow the safety guidelines set out
below:

■ This product is not intended for children under 8 years of age.

■ Note for adults supervising children: Check that the model is assembled as

described in the operating instructions. Assembly must be carried out under the
supervision of an adult.

■ Flying the model quadrocopter requires practice. Children should be supervised

by an adult.

■ If you do not have sufficient knowledge about how to operate remote-controlled

model quadrocopters, contact an experienced model sportsman or a model
construction club.

■ Before each use, check the functional safety of your model and the remote

control. Pay particular attention to visible damage such as defective plug connec­tions or damaged cables. All movable parts on the model must work smoothly
but may not, however, exhibit any play in the bearings.

■ Check the correct and firm seating of the rotors before each use.

■ Do not operate a damaged model.

■ Do not perform any modifications or changes to the model yourself.

■ If the cables or connections are damaged, have them replaced by an authorised

specialist or the Customer Service department.

■ Always switch on the remote control first. When you turn on the remote control,

make sure that the throttle lever is set to the lowest position (engine off)!
The model’s battery may not be connected until afterwards. Otherwise the model
may react unexpectedly and the rotors could start unintentionally!

■ When the rotors are turning, ensure that neither objects nor body parts are in the

rotation and suction area of the rotors. Keep your hands, face, hair and loose
articles of clothing away from the rotors. Do not touch any moving parts.

■ Caution! There is a risk of injury to the eyes! To avoid injuries, do not fly the

model anywhere near your face.

■ When the rotors are turning, ensure that neither objects nor body parts are in the

rotation and suction area of the rotors. Do not touch any moving parts.

■ Always disconnect the battery from the flying model when carrying out maintenance

and cleaning work.

■ Do not take any risks when operating the model. Your own safety and that of

your surroundings depend on your responsible handling of the model.

■ Improper operation can cause serious injury and property damage! Therefore, al-

ways maintain a safe distance to people, animals or objects when flying the model.

QC 360 A1

■ Select a suitable location (open space) to operate your model. Do not fly in

areas with freely suspended cables, e.g. high-voltage power lines. Keep a safe
distance from buildings, masts, wind turbines, chimneys, etc.

■ Do not fly the model in areas where there may be rapidly changing temperatures,

e.g. over a fire or over bodies of water.

■ Fly your model only if your ability to respond is unrestricted. Tiredness, alcohol

or the influence of drugs can cause incorrect responses.

■ Never fly the model directly at spectators or at yourself.

■ The motor, electronics and also the battery can heat up while the model is being

operated. For this reason, take a break of 5–10 minutes before you recharge the
battery or start operation again using a replacement battery.

■ Always leave the remote control switched on while the model is being operated.

After landing, always disconnect the battery plug connector first. Do not switch
off the remote control until you have done this.

■ In the event of a defect or malfunction, eliminate the cause of the fault before

restarting your model.

■ Do not expose your model or the remote control to direct sunlight or excessive

heat for any extended period of time.

■ In the event of a severe crash (for example, from a great height) the electronic

gyroscopic sensors can be damaged or misaligned. Therefore, carry out a full
function test before attempting another flight.

■ In the event of a crash, reduce the throttle immediately to zero. Rotating rotors

can be damaged by contact with obstacles or when hitting the ground. Before
flying again, check them for any cracks or breakage!

■ To prevent crash damage to the model caused by undervoltage or deep dis-

charge of the battery, the undervoltage indicator must be strictly observed.

■ In some countries, you are required by law to insure model aeroplanes and

helicopters which are flown outdoors. Please contact your private liability insurer
and verify that your model is included in this insurance.

Notes on batteries and rechargeable batteries

DANGER

Danger caused by improper use!
Mishandling the batteries can cause fires, explosions, leakages

or other hazards!

Remote control

► Keep batteries out of the hands of children.
► Do not leave batteries lying around. There is a risk of them being swal-

lowed by children or pets. If this happens, consult a doctor immediately!

■ 6 │ GB

IE

QC 360 A1

DANGER

► Batteries must never be short-circuited, taken apart, deformed or thrown

into a fire. There is a risk of explosion!

► Leaking or damaged batteries can cause skin irritations when touched.

Therefore, use suitable protective gloves. In the event of contact with the
skin, rinse with plenty of water. If the chemicals come into contact with
your eyes, rinse thoroughly with water, do not rub and consult a doctor
immediately.

► Do attempt to recharge non-rechargeable batteries. There is a risk of fire

and/or explosion!

► When inserting batteries, note the correct polarity (plus/+ and minus/−).
► During extended periods of non-use (e.g. during storage), remove the

batteries from the remote control to prevent damage caused by leaking

batteries.

► When changing batteries, always replace the whole set. Do not mix fresh

batteries with semi-charged batteries. Always use batteries of the same

type and manufacturer.

► Never mix batteries with rechargeable batteries!

Rechargeable battery

► After a flight, disconnect the rechargeable battery from the models electronics.

Do not leave the battery connected to the electronics when the model is

not in use (e.g. during transport or storage). Otherwise the battery could

become deeply discharged. This could leave it destroyed and unusable.

In addition, there is a risk of malfunctions cause by pulse interference. The

rotors could inadvertently start rotating and cause damage or injury.

► Never charge the battery immediately after use. Allow the battery to cool

down first (at least 5–10 minutes).

► Due to the special circuitry in the battery connection, the battery cannot be

charged on a standard charger.

► Therefore, use only the supplied USB charging cable to charge the battery.
► Charge only intact and undamaged batteries. If the outer insulation on the

rechargeable battery is damaged, or if the battery is deformed or bloated,

do not charge it under any circumstances. This could lead to an acute risk

of fire and explosion!

► Never damage the outer casing of the battery. Do not cut the foil envelope.

Never pierce the battery with sharp objects. There is a risk of fire and/or

explosion!

► As both the USB charging cable and the battery heat up during charging, it

is necessary to ensure adequate ventilation. Never cover the USB charging

cable and the battery!

Handling and operation

This section provides you with important information on handling and operating

the quadrocopter.

DANGER

► Controlling and operating remote-controlled model aircraft has to be learned!

If you have never used such a model, start especially carefully and famil­iarise yourself first with the reactions of the model to the remote control
commands. Be patient!
Do not take any risks when operating the product! You own safety and that
of your surroundings depend solely on your responsible handling of the
model.

General flight tips

■ Always place the quadrocopter on a level surface. A sloping surface may ad-

versely affect the take-off behaviour under certain circumstances.

■ Always move the control lever

slowly and with feeling.

■ Always keep your eye on the quadrocopter and do not look at the remote

control.

■ Move the throttle lever

back down a bit as soon as the quadrocopter lifts off
from the ground. To achieve a constant flying height, adjust the throttle lever
as follows:

– if the quadrocopter descends, move the throttle lever

back up slightly.

– if the quadrocopter ascends, move the throttle lever

down slightly.

■ To bank left or right, often only a light tap on the control lever

in the corre­sponding direction is all that is needed. In your first few attempts at flight, you will
probably be tempted to steer too forcefully. The throttle

and the control lever

should always be moved slowly and very carefully. Never quickly or jerkily.

The ideal flight environment

The location where the quadrocopter is to be flown should fulfil the following
criteria:

■ It should be an enclosed room where there are no significant air currents. Where

possible, there should be no appliances that cause air currents, such as air condi­tioners, fan heaters, etc.

■ There should be no potential obstacles in the room (lamps, etc.).

■ The room should be at least 10 m long, 6 m wide and 3 m high. For aerobatic

flying, we recommend flying outdoors or in a large hall in which there is at least
10 m space in every direction.

■ When taking off, ensure that any animals and spectators – including the pilot –

are more than 1–2 m from the quadrocopter when the flight begins.

QC 360 A1

The first flight

♦ Switch on the remote control by moving the ON/OFF switch to the "ON"

position. The control lamp

flashes.

♦ Move the throttle lever

to the rear (motors off).

♦ Connect the battery

to the quadrocopter. To do this, connect the quadrocopter

plug connector

to the battery plug connector . The quadrocopter’s control

lamps

start flashing. The remote control beeps twice.

♦ Push the throttle lever

all the way forward and then all the way back. You will
hear a short beep from the remote control. The quadrocopter’s control lamps
light up permanently to signal that the quadrocopter is ready for flight.

NOTE

► The directional indications are always from the perspective of the "virtual"

pilot of the model aircraft. The two red control lamps

on the quadrocopter

indicate the direction and mean "forwards".

Up/down Turn left/right

Forwards/backwards Sideways left/right

■ 12 │ GB

IE

QC 360 A1

Setting the speed level

The quadrocopter has two speed settings you can use depending on your flight
experience level.

♦ Set the speed selector switch

to the position "–" for a slower speed. This speed

setting is recommended for pilots who have little or no flight experience.

♦ Set the speed selector switch

to the position "+" for a higher speed. This speed
is recommended for pilots who already have experience with flying quadrocopter
models.

Barrel roll

Once you have acquired a bit of experience with the quadrocopter, you can
attempt a barrel roll.

♦ Fly the quadrocopter up to a height of about 2–3 metres and keep it hovering.
♦ Press the control lever

downwards. The remote control emits a continuous

beep to signal that the quadrocopter is in barrel roll mode.

♦ Move the control lever

in one direction (forwards/backwards/right/left).

The quadrocopter will then do a barrel role in the corresponding direction.

Calibration

If the quadrocopter shows a tendency to move off in one direction (drift), you will
need to calibrate it.

♦ Place the quadrocopter on a dry and level horizontal surface.
♦ Pull the throttle lever

to the lower left corner and the control lever to the lower

right corner at the same time. The quadrocopter’s control lamps

will flash for

3 seconds. As soon as the control lamps

light up permanently, calibration is

complete and the quadrocopter is ready to fly again.

GB│IE 

│

 13 ■

QC 360 A1

♦ If the quadrocopter starts drifting again, repeat the process.

Troubleshooting

This section contains important information about fault identification and rectifica­tion. Follow the instructions to avoid hazards and damage.

Fault causes and rectification

The following table will help you to identify and rectify minor malfunctions:

Faults Possible cause Remedy

Maintenance, cleaning and repair

Maintenance

There are no mechanical parts that require lubrication or other maintenance.

Cleaning

CAUTION

► To prevent damage, ensure that no moisture can penetrate the interior of

the quadrocopter.

The quadrocopter should be cleaned after every flight to remove any dirt or
debris (wool threads, hairs, dust, etc.).

♦ Use a dry or slightly damp cloth to clean the model and avoid getting any water

on the electronics, rechargeable battery and motors.

Repairs

NOTE

► Replacement batteries can be ordered on the Internet at www.kompernass.com.

If a rotor is damaged due to a crash or other impact, it should be replaced
immediately. This also applies if you notice fine cracks or hairline fractures
in the rotors. Due to the high rotational speed, fragments can detach and fly
off causing damage or putting bystanders at risk. Before assembly, ensure
that you do not mix up the rotors. The quadrocopter has two different rotors
which can be differentiated by the markings (A & B) on the bottom. The
replacement rotor blades supplied also have different colours (black and
white). To make it easier to identify the direction of flight, you can fit two
black rotor blades at the front and two white rotor blades at the back.

♦ To change a rotor, lever the damaged rotor off the motor shaft using the dismantling

tool supplied and replace it with a new rotor. When doing this, the new rotor may
not be pushed all the way onto the motor shaft. Maintain a distance of approx.

0.5 mm to the motor housing.

♦ Mount the rotors marked with A onto the rotor arms marked with an A.

Mount the rotors marked with B onto the rotor arms marked with a B.

Sikkerhed

Grundlæggende sikkerhedsanvisninger

Overhold følgende sikkerhedsanvisninger for sikker brug af produktet:

■ Produktet er ikke beregnet til børn under 8 år.

■ Anvisninger til voksne personer, der holder opsyn: Kontrollér, om modellen er

samlet som vist i betjeningsvejledningen. En voksen person skal holde opsyn,
mens produktet samles.

■ Flyvning med model-quadcopter kræver øvelse, og børn skal oplæres under en

voksens opsyn.

■ Hvis du ikke har tilstrækkelig viden om håndtering af fjernstyrede model-quad-

coptere, så bør du kontakte en erfaren modelflyver eller en modelbyggerklub.

■ Før produktet anvendes, skal du altid tjekke modelflyets og fjernbetjeningens

funktionssikkerhed. Vær opmærksom på synlige skader som f.eks. defekte stikfor­bindelser eller beskadigede kabler. Samtlige bevægelige dele i modellen skal
fungere gnidningsløst og må ikke udvise tegn på lejeslør.

■ Før produktet anvendes, skal det tjekkes, at rotorerne sidder korrekt og er fast

monteret.

■ Brug aldrig produktet, hvis det er beskadiget.

■ Du må ikke selv ændre eller ombygge produktet.

■ Hvis kabler eller tilslutninger er beskadigede, skal de udskiftes af en autoriseret

reparatør eller af kundeservice.

■ Tænd altid for fjernbetjeningen først. Sørg for, at gashåndtaget er stillet på den

laveste position (motorer fra), når der tændes for fjernbetjeningen! Først derefter
må modellens genopladelige batteri tilsluttes. Ellers kan det resultere i uforudsige­lige reaktioner fra modellen, og rotorerne kan startes utilsigtet!

■ Når rotorerne kører, skal du sørge for, at der ikke befinder sig genstande eller le-

gemsdele i rotorernes omdrejnings- eller indsugningszone. Hold hænder, ansigt,
hår og løs beklædning på afstand af rotorerne. Rør ikke ved bevægelige dele.

■ Obs! Fare for øjenskader! Quadcopteren må ikke flyve i nærheden af ansigtet,

da det kan medføre personskader.

■ Når rotorerne kører, skal du sørge for, at der ikke befinder sig genstande eller

legemsdele i rotorernes omdrejnings- eller indsugningszone. Rør ikke ved bevæ­gelige dele.

■ Afbryd altid batteriet fra modelflyet, når du udfører vedligeholdelses- og rengørings-

arbejder.

■ Løb aldrig nogen risiko ved brug af modellen! Din egen og dine omgivelsers

sikkerhed afhænger af ansvarlig brug af modellen.

■ Ukorrekt betjening kan forårsage alvorlige personskader og materielle skader!

Sørg for tilstrækkelig sikkerhedsafstand til personer, dyr og genstande ved
flyvning.

QC 360 A1

■ Vælg et egnet sted (åbent rum) til betjening af din model. Flyv den ikke i områder

med frithængende ledninger, f.eks. højspændingsledninger. Hold den på afstand
af bygninger, master, vindmøller, skorstene mv.

■ Flyv ikke modellen i områder, hvor der forekommer hurtigt skiftende temperaturer,

f.eks. over en brand eller en vandoverflade.

■ Brug kun modelflyet, når din reaktionsevne er upåvirket. Træthed, alkohol eller

narkotika kan føre til forkerte reaktioner.

■ Flyv aldrig modellen direkte mod tilskuere eller dig selv.

■ Både motor, elektronik og batteri kan blive varmt under brug af modellen. Hold

derfor en pause på 5-10 minutter, før du genoplader batteriet eller udskifter det
med et evt. reservebatteri.

■ Lad altid fjernbetjeningen være tændt, så længe modellen er i drift. Efter landing

skal stikket til det genopladelige batteri altid frakobles først. Først derefter må
fjernbetjeningen slukkes.

■ Ved en defekt eller fejlfunktion skal årsagen til fejlen først findes, før du starter

modellen igen.

■ Placér ikke modellen eller fjernbetjeningen i direkte sollys eller ekstrem varme

gennem længere tid.

■ Ved et alvorligt styrt (f.eks. fra stor højde) kan de elektroniske gyrosensorer blive

beskadiget eller miste deres funktion. Før der flyves igen, skal produktets fulde
funktionsdygtighed altid kontrolleres!

■ Ved et styrt skal gashåndtaget omgående sættes på nul. Drejende rotorer kan

blive beskadiget ved kontakt med forhindringer eller ved stød og slag. Før der
flyves igen, skal rotorerne altid kontrolleres for revner eller brudsteder!

■ For at undgå skader på modellen ved styrt som følge af for lav spænding eller

dybafladning af det genopladelige batteri skal man altid være opmærksom på
lyssignalerne for lav spænding.

■ I visse lande kræves der en lovpligtig forsikring for at flyve modelfly og -helikoptere

udendørs. Kontakt venligst dit forsikringsselskab og undersøg, om din model er
omfattet af din forsikring.

Information om batterier/genopladelige batterier

FARE

Fare på grund af forkert anvendelse!
Forkert håndtering af batterier kan føre til brand, eksplosioner,

udløb af farlige stoffer eller andre farlige situationer!
Fjernbetjening

► Batterier/genopladelige batterier er ikke legetøj.
► Lad ikke batterier/genopladelige batterier ligge frit fremme. Der er risiko

for, at de kan blive slugt af børn eller husdyr. Søg straks læge i sådanne
tilfælde!

■ 24 │  DK

QC 360 A1

FARE

► Batterier/genopladelige batterier må aldrig korsluttes, adskilles, deformeres

eller kastes på åben ild. Fare for eksplosion!

► Lækkende eller beskadigede batterier/genopladelige batterier kan forårsage

hudirritation ved berøring; benyt derfor altid egnede beskyttelseshandsker
i disse tilfælde. Skyl med rigeligt vand ved hudkontakt. Hvis kemikalierne kom­mer i øjnene, skal øjnene skylles grundigt med vand - lad være med at gnide
i øjnene, og søg straks læge.

► Traditionelle batterier må ikke oplades. Det udgør en brand- og eksplosi-

onsrisiko!

► Sørg for at vende polerne korrekt ved indlægning af batterierne (plus/+

og minus/−).

► Hvis produktet ikke benyttes i længere tid (f.eks. ved opbevaring), skal

batterierne tages ud af fjernbetjeningen for at undgå skader som følge af
lækkende batterier.

► Udskift altid hele sættet af batterier. Bland ikke fuldt opladede og delvist

opladede batterier. Brug altid batterier af samme type og fra samme
producent.

► Bland aldrig almindelige batterier med genopladelige batterier!

Genopladeligt batteri

► Efter flyvning skal det genopladelige batteri kobles fra flymodellens elektronik.

Lad ikke det genopladelige batteri være forbundet med elektronikken, når
du ikke benytter produktet (f.eks. ved transport eller opbevaring). Ellers er
der risiko for dybafladning af batteriet. Det kan ødelægge det og gøre det
ubrugeligt!
Desuden er der risiko for fejlfunktioner som følge af støjimpulser.
Rotorerne kan starte utilsigtet og forårsage skader eller kvæstelser.

► Oplad aldrig det genopladelige batteri straks efter brug. Lad først det

genopladelige batteri køle af (min. 5-10 minutter).

► På grund af den specielle tilslutning af det genopladelige batteris stik er det

ikke muligt at oplade batteriet med almindelige batteriopladere.

► Brug derfor udelukkende det medfølgende USB-ladekabel til opladning af

batteriet.

► Oplad kun intakte og ubeskadigede batterier. Hvis den udvendige isolering

på batteriet er beskadiget, eller batteriet er deformeret eller buler ud, må
det under ingen omstændigheder oplades. I så tilfælde er der akut risiko
for brand og eksplosion!

► Undgå altid skader på det genopladelige batteris udvendige beklædning.

Skær aldrig i den omviklede folie. Stik aldrig skarpe genstande ind i det
genopladelige batteri. Det udgør en brand- og eksplosionsrisiko!

FARE

► Eftersom både USB-ladekablet og det genopladelige batteri bliver varme

under opladningsprocessen, er det nødvendigt at sørge for tilstrækkelig

udluftning. Tildæk aldrig USB-ladekablet og det genopladelige batteri!

► Oplad aldrig batterier uden opsyn.
► Afbryd det genopladelige batteri fra USB-ladekablet, når det er fuldt opladet.
► USB-ladekablet må kun anvendes et tørt, indendørs sted. USB-ladekablet

og det genopladelige batteri må ikke blive fugtige eller våde.
