1 START PREPARATION
The thrust controller (the left controller on the remote control) must point down before being
switched on (1A). Then set the ON/OFF switch of the remote control to the „ON" position; the
Power LED will flash red (1B). The LEDs begin to blink when the Multicopter is switched on. Place
the helicopter on the ground so that the tail points towards the pilot (1C). Now briefly move the
left joystick all the way forward and back again. The Multicopter needs a few seconds to initialise
the gyro and to establish the connection to the remote control. As soon as the LEDs on the
Multicopter light up red permanently, the connection to the remote control has been established.
Attention! Always place the Multicopter on an even horizontal surface – the control electronics
aligns its neutral position to the subsurface!
2 FLIGHT CONTROL
Note: Only minimal corrections of the controls are necessary for a smooth flying behaviour of the
Multicopter! The direction information applies if the Multicopter is viewed from behind. If the Multi-
copter is flying towards the pilot, it must be moved in the opposite direction.
2A In order to start or gain altitude, carefully move the left hand joystick forward.
Move the left hand joystick back for landing or to fly lower.
2B To fly forward, carefully move the right hand joystick control forward.
To fly backward, pull the right joystick back carefully.
2C Curve left by carefully moving the right hand joystick control to the left.
Curve right by carefully moving the right hand joystick control to the right.
2D Turn the Multicopter around to the left by moving the left joystick to the left.
Turn the Multicopter around to the right by moving the left joystick to the right.
Control adjustment: By pressing the left joystick, the sensitivity of the control can be
adjusted in three levels (Easy, Normal and Expert).
The lowest speed setting is automatically selected you switch on the multicopter. Now
press the left joystick backwards and a double beep sounds to indicate that the second level is ac-
tivated. Pressing once more switches to the highest speed (the remote control briefly beeps three
times). Pressing once more switches back to the first level.
Attention! Only switch to a higher level when you have mastered the lower one!
BATTERY LEVEL:
• If the LED blink, the battery is depleted. Commence with landing immediately in order to avoid
crashing!
3 TRIM ADJUSTMENT OF THE CONTROL
The correct trim is a basic requirement for fault-free flying behaviour of the Multicopter.
Its adjustment is simple, but it requires some patience and a feel for it. Please observe the
following instructions precisely: Carefully move the thrust control up and raise the Multicopter
approximately 0.5 to 1 metre in altitude.
3A If the Multicopter moves by itself slowly or quickly to the left or right ...
Press the roll trim incrementally in the opposite direction.
3B If the Multicopter moves by itself slowly or quickly forwards or backwards ...
Press the nick trim down incrementally. If the helicopter moves backwards, press the nick trim up
incrementally.
If the Multicopter moves by itself slowly or quickly around its own axis ...
land and leave the left hand joystick in the null position for 3 sec. - the trim adjustment takes
place automatically.
4 FLY LOOPS – ONLY FOR EXPERIENCED USERS!
Once you have mastered your multicopter, you can try your hand at the looping function.
For this purpose, make sure that you have sufficient room in each direction (at least 3 m).
Also observe the safety height - fly at a height of at least 2 m as your multicopter loses height when
rolling over and has to be caught and corrected afterwards! Please note: Rolling is more
successful when the battery is still nearly full! Now climb to the safety height. If you press
the right joystick, the remote control issues multiple short beeps. Now control with the right control-
ler and the multicopter executes a loop in the corresponding direction. Then be prepared to catch the
multicopter, as the altitude, direction and speed after the roll depend largely
on the wind and previous flight movements.
5 CALIBRATION
If the Multicopter drifts or can only be trimmed with difficulty while flying (yawing), try to
calibrate the Multicopter. Switch on the remote control and Multicopter for this purpose
(see instructions) and place the model on a level surface. The slider (the left-hand stick on the
remote control) must point downwards. Now switch to the 3rd speed level with the left joystick.
Now move both joysticks to the right simultaneously and hold them in place until the LED on the
multicopter begins blinking quickly. Then the calibration is finished.
6 CHANGING THE PROPELLERS
If the Multicopter's rotor blades are damaged and must be replaced, proceed as follows:
• Before fitting the propellers, make sure they are not mixed up. The Multicopter has 4 different
propellers, which differ in colour and markings on the bottom:
• Carefully pull the defective propeller off the shaft.
You can use small pliers to carefully remove it.
• Carefully fit the new propeller onto the shaft again.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Problem: The propellers do not move.
Cause: • The ON/OFF switch is in the "OFF" position.
• The battery is too weak or depleted.
Remedy: • Set the ON/OFF switch to the "ON" position.
• Charge the battery.
Problem: The Multicopter stops and descends during flight for no apparent reason.
Cause: • The battery is too weak.
Remedy: • Charge the battery.
Problem: It isn't possible to control the Multicopter using the remote control.
Cause: • The ON/OFF switch is in the "OFF" position.
• The batteries were not inserted correctly.
• The batteries do not have enough power.
Remedy:
• Set the ON/OFF switch to the "ON" position.
• Check whether the batteries are inserted correctly.
• Insert new batteries.
Problem: The Multicopter only turns on its vertical axis or rolls over when
started or does not lift off.
Cause: • Incorrect arrangement of propellers.
Remedy: • Install the propellers as outlined in the manual.
