About VegaDrone App

Functions and controls are basically the same as those on the included remote

control, but the app has a few extra tricks to enjoy:

• You can leave the remote control at home, because you want to travel light
and cannot bear to separate from your smart device...

• You prefer touch screen controls, plus there's a cool motion sensor
navigation option

• You can stream photo/ video footage live to your friends on social media

• Last but not least, for remote control users, the app allows quick access to

view photos/ video shot using the included remote control and a SD card
(not included) loaded in your drone. Snap the device holder onto the remote
to use your device as a monitor (see page 9). This conveniently eliminates
transferring the SD card to your device or a card reader.

VegaDrone pilots, you have nothing to lose, the world is your
oyster! Master ight rst by getting to grips with the remote
control, and then discover the extras oered in app control.
