from your hand, before to attempt take-offs from the
floor.
Launching from hand: Push the throttle stick 75% of the
way up. Always point MetaFly facing the wind, launch it
from your hand with a gentle horizontal toss. Let it gain
some altitude before trying any turns. If it flies
downward, you can try with the tail one notch higher.
Take-off from the floor or from a table: It requires a
smooth surface, so that the legs ends can slide properly.
In some cases, increasing the throttle gradually is
necessary. Take off from a table requires less space
than from the floor.
Gliding flight: To make MetaFly glide: gain altitude,
reduce speed and get MetaFly flying straight, then cut
the throttle suddenly.
Out of range: If MetaFly flies out of range of the
transmitter, just get closer to the MetaFly and it will
connect again immediately.
Emergency landing: If you need to land MetaFly quickly
(in a risky situation), turn right or left to maximum for a
few seconds while throttle at maximum. MetaFly will
nosedive towards the ground. Immediately after, release
the direction stick, and cut the throttle. Generally, doing
tight turns will cause the MetaFly to descend. It is a good
way to control its altitude.
WARNING: do not keep the direction stick at maximum
on one side for a long time, even when the MetaFly is
not flying because it could cause the steering micro-
motor to overheat.
End of flight: When the MetaFly flight becomes less
powerful (wings flapping speed has decreased
noticeably) it is time to recharge it (see above).
MetaFly’s LED blinking indicate that the battery is nearly
empty. When it is totally empty the battery will auto
