POWER SUPPLY
The goggles do not have a built-in power supply. You are required to supply the goggles with power from
an external power source. Make use of the following options:
> LiPo battery pack (supplied)
> A suitable external LiPo battery (refer to technical data)
LiPo pack
Charging it:
1. Insert the battery (20) into the charging base (26). Hook the noses (21) into the slots in the base
and make sure the battery contacts slide into the contacts (25) in the base.
2. Lower the battery and press slightly to lock it. Ensure it is locked before you charge it.
3. Connect the cable of the power adapter (22) to the charging port (19) and the power adapter to a
suitable socket outlet. Use the socket type suitable for your country.
4. The red and blue indicator lights (29) light up. The blue indicator lights ash. When all indicator
lights are off, the battery is fully charged.
» A full charging cycle takes about 3.5 hours.
> In order to release the battery, push the battery unlocking mechanism (28) up to unlock the battery.
You can now remove it from the tray.
When to charge it:
Each blue indicator light represents 25 % of the battery capacity. During use, the blue indicator lights are
lit and go off one after the other (the indicator light of the quarter in use ashes). When the red indicator
light ashes, charge the battery. If, for example, three indicator lights are off, you have max. 25 % battery
capacity left.
> Turn the battery pack off before charging.
> Remove the battery from the charging base if you do not use it for a prolonged period of time. Recharge
the battery from time to time.
Wearing it:
Guide the arm strap (17) through the strap holder (24) at the bottom of the charger. You can then wear
it on your left or right arm during use.
Supplying the goggles with power:
1. Disconnect the power adapter from the battery pack.
2. Connect the D-tap jack of the power supply cable (23) to the D-tap port (27) on the charger.
3. Connect the other end of the power supply cable to the DC IN power supply socket on the goggles.
4. Turn the power supply on and off as needed. Study the following table.
Turn battery pack ON Turn battery pack OFF
A short press followed by a long press of the

> With a fully charged battery and depending on its condition you can operate the goggles for approx.
90 minutes.
A short press followed by a long press of the
On/Off button (18).
External LiPo battery
1. Connect the supplied 12 V/DC cable with BEC connector to the DC IN power supply socket (10)
on the goggles.
2. Connect an external battery (not supplied) delivering between 7 and 28 V/DC to the BEC connector.
SELECTING MODES
Press the MODE (6) button to switch between modes.
DIV mode
> The goggles constantly compare the RSSI (Received Signal Strength Indicator) of antenna 1

2. Select the PPM channel in the system settings corresponding to the PPM channel of the video
transmitter (You can assign switch positions for activating/deactivating PIP or the front facing
camera).
Notes:
> Select a channel with little interference. When the transmitter is turned off, check each channel for
interference and look for a consistent background. In case of interference, horizontal lines appear.
> Through the radio controller, you can open the Picture-in-picture function or close it. Also, you
can change the Picture-in-picture image size by connecting the transmitter to the PPM IN socket.
BEFORE FLYING
> Perform a range test. Other electronic devices and the surroundings can affect the range.
> The video signal is affected by obstacles (e.g. human bodies, concrete walls, houses etc.).
Maximum range can only be achieved in a clear line of sight.
> It takes some time to adapt to FPV ying. Practice in a familiar setting until you feel comfortable.
CLEANING AND CARE
> The goggles do not require any maintenance, do not disassemble them. Maintenance or repairs
may be carried out by a professional only.
> Do not let liquid enter the goggles.
> Clean the exterior of the goggles using a clean, soft, dry cloth only.
