INSTRUCTIONS FOR SAFE FLYING
GENERAL FLYING TIPS:
• Always place the model on a level surface.
An inclined surface can, under certain
circumstances, have a negative impact on
the starting behaviour of the model.
• Always operate the controls slowly and
with a gentle touch.
• Always maintain visual contact with the
model and do not look at the remote
control!
• Move the control for thrust and rotation
down again somewhat as soon as the
model lifts off from the ground. Maintain
flying altitude by adjusting the control for
thrust and rotation
• If the model lowers, move the control for
thrust and rotation slightly upward again.
• If the model climbs, move the control for
thrust and rotation down slightly.
BATTERY STATUS:
• If the model begins to lose thrust or the LED on the underside begins to blink, the
battery is depleted. Land in order to avoid crashing.
ATTENTION!
Flying models outdoors has required mandatory liability insurance since 2005. Contact
your private liability insurer and make sure that your new and earlier models are
included in your insurance coverage. Request written confirmation and keep this in a
safe place. Alternatively, the DMFV offers a trial membership free of charge online at
www.dmfv.aero, which includes insurance.
10 CHANGING THE PROPELLERS
If the rotor blades of the model are damaged, they must be replaced. Proceed as follows:
10A Prior to installation, make sure that you do not mix up the propellers.
The model has 4 different propellers, which differ in colour and direction of
rotation. If the propellers are mixed up, the model will not fly.
The two blue propellers are in front.
10B Loosen the screw in the center of the propeller and pull it off the shaft.
10C Place the new propeller on the shaft and tighten the screw again.

• To fly along a curve, tapping the controls
very slightly in the respective direction
often suffices. There is a general ten-
dency during preliminary attempts at
flight to operate the model's controls too
aggressively. Always operate the controls
slowly and carefully. Never fast and
fitfully.
• Beginners should first master trimming
before attempting to master the the
control for thrust and rotation. The model
does not necessarily have to fly straight
at the beginning – initially, it is more
important to maintain a constant height
of approximately one metre above the
ground by repeatedly tapping the control
for thrust and rotation. Only then should
the pilot practice steering the model left
and right.

TROUBLESHOOTING
Problem: The propellers do not move.
Cause: • No connection has been established.
• The battery is too weak or depleted.
Remedy: • Switch everything off and switch on again in the correct sequence (see
point 5).
• Charge the battery.
Problem: The model 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 model 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 model only turns on its vertical axis or rolls over when
started.
Cause: • Incorrect arrangement of the propellers.
Remedy: • Install the propellers as outlined in the manual (see point 10).
Problem: The model won't fly a flip manoeuvre.
Cause: • Battery too weak.
Remedy: • Charge battery.
Problem: The video image on the display does not play back.
Cause: • No existing WLAN connection
