CHARGING YOUR X20 BATTERY

1. Switch the quadrocopter Off. Connect the power cable to the unit making sure the arrow side of the
connector is on top side facing the top of the X20 (see diagrams C1 and C2).
CAUTION: The USB plug fits the charging socket only in one way. Do not force it. Improper

connection will damage the X20.

2. Connect the USB end of the cable to your computers USB port (see diagram D).

3.

The red LED on the USB plug lights up when charging is complete. Average charging time is about 30 minutes.

WARNING

DO NOT FLY YOUR X20 IN FOUL WEATHER!

PREPARING FOR FLIGHT

• Verify that there are 2 “AAA” batteries inside the remote control unit and the X20 has been fully charged.

• Make sure to be in a large space with an open radius of at least 50 feet.

• Make sure the empty space has no obstacles or rivers. Set your X20 on a clean flat surface before take-off.

DO NOT ATTEMPT TO FLY YOUR X20 IF THERE IS RAIN, SNOW, HEAVY WINDS, THUNDER OR LIGHTNING
OUTDOORS. IT COULD DAMAGE YOUR PRODUCT AND POSSIBLY EVEN CAUSE BODILY HARM.

SYNCING YOUR X20

Important! When syncing your X20 quadrocopter with the controller always make sure that the
quadrocopter is on a flat level surface and that your digital trim settings are in the center
position. This ensures that the 6 Axis gyro is properly programmed to mimic your trim settings.

Your X20 utilizes an automatic 2.4G channel selection system that allows up to 8 people to fly side by
side in the same wireless range with no interference.

For One-Person Play:

1. Before starting, make sure that the power on both your controller and X20 are in the OFF position.
Make sure that there are no other 2.4G devices in the area as well.

2. Turn ON the X20 and set it down on a flat surface. The LED indicator lights of the X20should begin to
flash rapidly.

3. Turn ON the remote, you will hear one short beep. The X20’s LED lights should now flash slowly.
Push the throttle on the left all the way forward(1 beep) and then pull the throttle all the way back.
A 2nd beep will sound and the lights should turn to solid. This indicates your controller and the
quadrocopter are successfully synced. If not, repeat above steps.

For Multi Person Play:

4. Before starting, make sure that the power on all X20 drones and Controllers are in the OFF position.
Make sure that there are no other 2.4 G devices in the area.

5. Each person will have to sync their X20 individually at a different time to avoid interference. Follow
steps 1 to 3 above making sure that no one else is syncing at the same time.

6. After syncing a player’s X20, it should be left ON until all players have synced their X20 quadrocopters.

7. Should there be a mistake or interference, all players must turn off their controllers and

X20

quadrocopters for up to 60 seconds and then begin the process again.

FLYING TIPS

• It is recommended that you operate the X20 in a wide space. The ideal space should have a 61 m/200 ft

radius.

• Parental guidance or adult supervision is suggested at all times.

• If you are flying the X20 with others, make sure all spectators are behind you.

• For best performance, it is recommended that you operate the X20 in zero wind conditions.

Wind can greatly affect the performance of the X20.

NOW YOU ARE READY TO FLY!

If you have successfully synced your X20 to your controller as explained on page 4 you are now ready to fly.
Before beginning to fly your drone you should familiarize yourself with how to start and stop the rotors,
how to use your take off and auto land feature and how the controls work. please carefully read and
familiarize yourself with various control features explained in the next few pages. Once again as a beginner
pilot you should learn how to control your drone in a large open field or park on a day with zero or very
light wind. Do not try to fly your X20 too high until you become a more experienced pilot.

Banking Left/Right Trim

�• If your X20 is not steadily hovering and is banking to the left or right automatically, you may
need to adjust the BANKING TRIM buttons.

• If your X20 banks to the left, push and release the R Trim button repeatedly until the banking

stops and proper flight is maintained.

• If your X20 banks to the right, push and release the L Trim button in the same manner until the
problem is resolved.

• From time to time you may have to adjust the BANKING TRIM to ensure the X20 will and respond
accurately to your commands.

UNDERSTANDING THE ALTITUDE LOCK

The X20 has a unique Altitude Lock function. With the help of air pressure sensor you can control, your
X20 more stable than ever. The sensor locks in the altitude of the copter while allowing the user to adjust
the directional control without having to hold the throttle.
After starting the copter, fly upwards to a safe height. Once at a safe height, let go of the throttle control,
your X20 should lock in the altitude and allow the user to focus on getting used to the directional
controls.
NOTE: The altitude sensor does have some tolerance based on atmospheric conditions and could have a
slight variation in altitude.

SPEED SETTING BUTTON

The X20 has 4 speed settings; T(Training),1(SLOW ),2(MEDIUM) and 3(HIGH). The Default setting
when you first turn on your X20 is 1(SLOW). To change speed, just press and release the speed setting

and then remain solid, this indicates your drone
has been recalibrated (see diagram E).

HOW TO DO 360º STUNT ROLLS

1. In order to make your X20 do 360º rolls you must fully charge your battery.
Note: The X20 will not do 360º stunt rolls in Mode 1 or under low battery indication (The LED
lights on the drone will be flashing).

2. Once you are ready to attempt a 360º roll, simply depress and let go of the "STUNT" button on the top

right hand side of your controller (see Remote Diagram on page 3). You will hear beeping sounds, this

means you are now in “STUNT MODE."

3. Now quickly move your right control stick in any of 4 directions; up, down, left or right. Your X20
copter will instantly roll in the associated direction. See diagram below.

After performed the stunt roll, the beeping sounds will stop. Repeat step 2 to 3 if you wish to do it
