Charging the Helicopter:

The helicopter is equipped with a high-performance Lithium-Poly battery.

1. Always turn the helicopter power switch off when charging the battery.

2. Connect the charge plug of the battery charger to the charge slot on the helicopter (see diagram).

3. Plug the charger into the power outlet.

4. While charging, the LED light on the charger turns red.

5. When the charge is complete, the LED light turns green.

6. The battery requires 60-70 minutes of charging for approximately 5-6 minutes of flight.

7. DO NOT CHARGE BATTERY LONGER

THAN 70 MINUTES.

IMPORTANT!

Do not immerse the helicopter in water. Keep it in a cool dry environment.

Do not use a battery charger other than the one provided.

Make sure that the battery charger power adapter fits your electrical outlet.

Never leave the helicopter battery unattended when charging.

Turn the helicopter and remote control power off when not in use.

After charging the battery, disconnect the AC adapter from the wall outlet.

Preparing for Flight:

1. Do not fly in temperatures below 50°F/10°C. Doing so may damage the helicopter

and/or adversely affect your ability to control it.

2. Do not fly in strong wind. Windy conditions will limit or completely

interfere with flight control, resulting in your helicopter becoming

Over 9 feet

damaged or lost.

3. Choose a flight area that is free of obstacles such as animals,

people, electrical lines, trees, or other obstructions.

Flight Radius

Turning On The Helicopter:

1. Once the helicopter is charged, disconnect the AC charging cord from the charge slot of the helicopter.

2. Plug the charge slot into the jack on your helicopter. This closes the power circuit.

3. Turn on the helicopter.

4. Place the helicopter onto the ground and stand at least 9 feet behind it.

5. Pull the remote control antenna to its full extension.

6. Make sure the throttle on the remote control is at its lowest position.

7. Turn on the power switch to the remote control. The power light will begin to blink. Push the throttle to the highest position, then to the lowest position. This will allow you to control the helicopter.

Controlling Your Helicopter:

Ascend

Descend

Push up on the throttle stick (see diagram) to raise the helicopter.

Pull down on the throttle stick (see diagram) to lower the helicopter.

Steering

Forward

Backward

Move the rudder stick (see diagram) left to turn the helicopter left.

Move the rudder stick (see diagram) right to turn the helicopter right.

Push up the steering rudder (see diagram) and the helicopter's nose tilts down and it flies forward.

Push down on the steering rudder (see diagram) and the helicopter's nose tilts up and it flies backward.

*Do not crash the helicopter from a high altitude. Damage can occur to the helicopter due to its size.

Fine Tuning Your Helicopter's Flight:

If your helicopter rotates in flight even when you are not using the remote control to make it do so, then you can adjust the fine-tuning knob to correct it.

If your helicopter is rotating left, turn the trim dial to the right (see diagram). Continue to adjust this dial until the helicopter flies straight.

Right turn

If your helicopter is rotating right, turn the trim dial to the left (see diagram). Continue to adjust this dial until the helicopter flies straight.

Note: If the helicopter is less than 1 foot from the ground, the vortex from the spinning blades can create flying issues. Please make sure to fly the helicopter above this height.

Note: The tail blade may not always spin as you are flying. Please note that this is normal as long as you are able to control the helicopter.

Flying Practice:

With enough practice, you can attempt the following maneuvers (see diagrams):

Revolving descents

Left turn

Practice flying your helicopter in a rectangular pattern by flying it forward and then executing a series of left-hand turns. Gradually round off the turns so that you can fly your helicopter in a circle.

Troubleshooting:

The remote control doesn’t work:

1. Make sure the remote control’s power switch is on.

2. Make sure the batteries in the remote control are inserted properly, according to polarity symbols

(+) and (-) in the battery compartment.

3. Replace the batteries.

Unable to control the helicopter:

1. Make sure the helicopter’s power switch is on.

2. Make sure the helicopter’s wire is plugged in once the helicopter is charged.

3. Make sure the remote control’s antenna is fully extended.

4. Do not fly the helicopter in wind, which can interfere with control.

The helicopter will not ascend:

1. Make sure you are pulling up on the throttle stick.

2. Make sure the helicopter battery is fully charged.

The helicopter lands too fast/crashes:

1. Slowly pull down the throttle until the helicopter lands smoothly.

2. Make sure the helicopter battery is fully charged.

Caution:

1. Remote control range is reduced when the batteries are low.

2. When the helicopter’s battery is low, it will not fly as high.

3. Do not fly the helicopter if the rotor is damaged or broken. Injury can result.

4. Landing the helicopter too fast or crash landing will result in a shorter lifespan for the helicopter.

5. Keep hands, fingers, eyes, hair, and loose clothing away from rotors and moving parts.
