2. Install 6 “AA” size

batteries in the battery compartment following the polarity shown inside.

3. Replace and tighten the screw clockwise.

Apache Charging Procedure

Note: Before recharging the Apache’s LiPo battery after ﬂ ying, always wait 10-15 minutes for it to cool down.

1. Turn off both the Apache and the controller.

2. Pull out the charge cord from the left side of the controller.

(Pic 1).

3. Carefully plug the charging cord into Apache (Pic 2). DO NOT FORCE. When inserted properly, the charging cord should ﬁ t easily in the charging port. Incorrect insertion of the charging cord will damage the Apache and may create a hazard.

4. Turn the switch to the ON position on the controller. (Pic 3).

5. The controller’s LED will illuminate green while

simultaneously ﬂ ashing red. (Pic 3).

6. When the LED shines steadily red without ﬂ ashing, charging is complete.

7. Disconnect the charging cord from the Apache.

The Apache can ﬂ y for about 5-6 minutes after 25-30 minutes of charging.

page 3page 2

2. HOW TO CONTROL FLIGHT:

Flying Y our Apache (continued)

Up and Down Hovering:

From steady ﬂ ight, slowly pushing the throttle stick upward will make the Apache ﬂ y higher. To make it ﬂ y lower, simply lower the stick a little. Smooth ﬂ ying takes only small changes in the stick position.

Left and Right Turns:

Hold the Apache steady in the air. Push the direction stick left to turn left, and push the direction stick right to turn right.

Moving Forward and Backward:

Hold the Apache steady in the air. Push the direction stick forward to move forward, and push the direction backward right to move backward.

3. HOW TO LIFT-OFF (after Trimming):

• Place the Apache on a smooth surface. An uneven ﬂ oor surface will affect its take-off.

• Slowly increase the throttle.

• DO NOT look at the controller while ﬂ ying. Focus on the Apache.

• As soon as the Apache leaves the ground, reduce the throttle slightly. Adjust the throttle as

necessary to maintain altitude.

• Gently add throttle if the Apache descends.

• Gently reduce throttle if the Apache climbs.

• For turning, give short and small inputs to the direction stick. (Most beginners will initially over-

control the Apache.)

Safety Tips

• Read through the entire instruction manual before ﬂ ying your Apache.

• This product should be ﬂ own only indoors.

• Make sure that you and other people stay 3 to 6 feet (or 1 to 2 meters) away from the Apache while

you begin ﬂ ight.

• Always keep your eye on the ﬂ ying toy to prevent it from ﬂ ying, landing, or crashing on or near your

head or body, or on other people.

• Never disassemble or attempt to modify the Apache. You could damage the product and create the

potential for damage or injury.

• Never put your hands or face close to rotating parts. Doing so risks injury. Never operate the Apache

while sitting on the ﬂ oor or on a chair — always ﬂ y from a position that lets you get out of the way quickly if necessary.

• Always switch off both the Apache and the controller when you leave the controller unattended. If the

power switch is left on, unintended stick operation might occur (for example, if the controller falls face-forward onto the ﬂ oor).

• Due to the dangers of the rotating parts no one under the age of eight should be allowed to operate

the Apache.

• Never use parts that are damaged.

Trouble Shooting

Problem: Blades can’t turn. Cause: • ON/OFF switch is OFF.

• Weak battery.

Solution: • Set switch to ON.

• Recharge the battery.

Problem: Apache suddenly stops ﬂ ying and drops. Cause: Too little power. Solution: Recharge the battery.

Choose a location that meets the following criteria:

1. Indoors, with little air movement. Avoid circulating air from heating and air conditioning.

2. Room sizes should be at least 10 feet (3 m) wide x 10 feet (3 m) long x 8 feet (2.4 m) high.

3. Avoid ﬂ ying in areas with electric fans, air conditioning, reading lamps or other objects that

• Always move the controller’s throttle stick to the down position after a crash.

• Do not ﬂ y in direct sunlight or very bright lighting — these can affect the control system of your toy.

• Do not cover the infrared signal emitter of the controller. If you do, no signals can be sent to your

• Do not place any other labels or stickers onto the Apache. These will interfere with its ability to receive
