f) Starting the Quadrocopter
• Stand behind the quadrocopter.
• The quadrocopter should point at you with the voltage display of the ight battery (four LEDs).
• Check the voltage display of the ight battery and the remote control transmitter, as well as the position of the toggle
switches (position front/top).
• Wait until the quadrocopter receives more than six GPS satellites and has saved the starting point. The status LEDs
will then ash green approx. every 5 seconds. Now your quadrocopter is ready to start.
• Move the left control stick to the lower right and at the same
time the right control stick to the lower left (see gure 23).
• Once the motors start up, return both control sticks to the
middle position again without delay.
• The LEDs pointing down on the front boom arms are white and
the LEDs pointing down on the rear boom arms are red.
Important!
Never move both control levers at once to start the
motors while the quadrocopter is hovering or standing
on the ground with the motor running. The quadrocop-
ter would crash with standing propellers or tip back-
wards on the ground and take damage.
• Push the control stick for the pitch function slowly to the front. The quadrocopter increases the propeller speed and
lifts off.
• When you return the control stick to the middle position, the quadrocopter will hover.
Important:
Do not deect the control stick for the pitch function too much; otherwise, the quadrocopter will rise very
quickly or drop too quickly.
Never try grabbing the ying quadrocopter with your hand. There is a considerable danger of injury.
• Perform the rst careful direction controls at an altitude of 1 - 2 m and observe how the quadrocopter reacts to the
control commands.
• To land the quadrocopter again, pull the control stick for the pitch function from the middle position back a bit for the
quadrocopter to slowly reduce ight altitude and land.
• When the quadrocopter has touched down, pull the control lever for the „pitch“ function all the way to your body and
keep it in this position. Once the motors have been switched off and the propellers are no longer turning, put the
control lever back into the middle position.
Attention!
Always keep an eye on the 4 LEDs of the voltage indication of the ight battery while ying. With increasing
ight length, LED 4 will start ashing rst and then go out. This repeats with LED 3 and LED 2.
At the latest when only LED 1 is lit anymore you should start landing without delay. If this is not done, the
quadrocopter will initiate a landing on its own to avoid harmful deep discharge of the ight battery. The status
LEDs at the quadrocopter start to ash red.
As an alternative to the rechargeable battery LEDs, which offer only a general indication in the end, you can
read the current voltage of the ight battery much more precisely in the transmitter display.
