Vertical movements on the right joystick control the quadcopter’s forward & backward pitch. Push up to fly forward and down to fly backward. The quadcopter will keep level and straight if the joystick is centered. Push the joystick further to increase pitch angle and faster flight velocity.
What do the horizontal movements on the right joystick control?
Horizontal movements on the right joystick control left and right pitch. Push left to fly left and right to fly right. The quadcopter will keep level and straight if the joystick is centered. Push the joystick further to increase pitch angle and faster flight velocity.
What can cause loss of control of the quadcopter?
Obstructions between the remote control antenna and the receiver antenna on the quadcopter may cause loss of control. Ensure the mobile device holder and repeater do not block the antenna.
How do you calibrate the joysticks?
Turn S2 to position 3, then turn on the remote control, and at this time the status indicator starts blinking (indicating joysticks calibration starts). Turn the left and right joysticks clockwise and counter-clockwise respectively at the maximum stroke for two circles, and then release the joysticks. (ensure that the joysticks stay at the maximum stroke throughout this process) Then, the status indicator in the middle will go out. Last, turn S2 to position 1, the photo shooting & video recording indicator will light up (green). Now the calibration completes successfully.
What is position 1 of the S4 switch?
GPS mode.

Why is compass calibration required?
Compass calibration is required before first-time use, otherwise, the system may not work properly, affecting flight safety. The compass is sensitive to electromagnetic interference from other electronic devices, which can cause abnormal compass data leading to poor flight performance or even flight failure. Regular calibration is required for optimum performance.
What should you not do when calibrating the compass?
- Do not calibrate the compass in a strong magnetic field.
- Do not carry ferromagnetic material, such as keys, cell phones, etc., while calibrating the compass.
How do you calibrate the compass?
- Choose an open space to conduct calibration. Start the Remote control and quadcopter and ensure they work properly.
- After the quadcopter powers on (about 20 seconds), switch S4 for more than 5 times between GPS and Follow Me mode. The quadcopter will enter calibration standby mode (the tail light blinks fast).
- Toggle the joysticks to the position as shown in the image. The front indicator (green) starts blinking, then release the joysticks. Compass calibration command has been sent successfully.
- Rotate the Quadcopter 360° horizontally (2 turns).
- Rotate the Quadcopter 360° vertically (2 turns, nose down).
- Rotate the Quadcopter vertically (nose leftward) until the green lights turn off. Put the Quadcopter on the ground. Green lights up normally after light off → calibration successful; Green lights blink fast after light off → calibration failed → Recalibrate.
- Be sure to remove propellers before calibration, to avoid accidental injury or loss.
When should you recalibrate the compass?
- When compass data is abnormal, front indicator (green) blinks fast.
- The flight location is far from the place where the last compass calibration was conducted.
- There are changes in the quadcopter’s physical structure.
- The quadcopter drifts a lot while flying, such as it flies along a circle when hovering.
How do you start the motors?
Toggle the joysticks as shown in the illustration (Combination joystick Command [CSC]) to start the motor. Release the joysticks simultaneously after the motors start.
When can the motor be turned on in GPS mode?
When S4 switch is set to GPS Mode, the motor cannot be turned on until GPS is ready (Tail indicator will alternate between fast blinking and on).
What are two ways to stop the motors?
- Method One: After the quadcopter lands, toggle the throttle joystick to the lowest position and then perform CSC, the motors will immediately stop. Release both joysticks after the motors stop.
- Method Two: After the quadcopter lands, toggle the left joystick to the lowest position and hold for 3 seconds to stop the motor.
What should you not do during normal flight?
Do not execute CSC during normal flight. This will stop the motors and cause the quadcopter to drop without control.
What should you ensure when performing CSC?
Toggle the joysticks quickly and accurately when performing CSC. Release the joysticks simultaneously after the motors starts or stops.
When should you shut down the remote control?
Shutdown the remote control must be after the quadcopter power is off. Otherwise, the quadcopter will enter the return mode, then may cause the high-speed rotation of the propeller.
What are the basic flight procedures?
- Place the Quadcopter on a flat and open ground, and ensure the Tail Indicator faces you.
- Power on the Camera, Remote control, Wi-Fi Repeater, and Quadcopter one after the other.
- Launch the AEE AP+ App, connect the mobile device and Quadcopter, and navigate to the Camera Preview interface.
- Start the motors until the GPS signal is strong enough (the Tail indicator remains on and Status Indicator is green) at GPS mode, or start the motors when the status indicator on the Remote control is blue at NRM mode.
- Push the left joystick up slowly for a smooth take-off. Please refer to Remote control operation instructions for detailed operation procedures.
- Use the AEE App to capture photos and record videos, and enjoy the flight. Please refer to Using AEE AP+ App for more details.
- To land, gently pull down the left joystick to make the quadcopter descend slowly to the ground.
- After landing, execute CSC or pull the left joystick to the lowest position and hold for more than 3 seconds until the motors stop.
- After motors stop, power off the Quadcopter, Wi-Fi Repeater, and the Remote control one after the other.
What does it indicate when all 4 arm indicators slow blink or fast blink during flight?
It indicates the quadcopter has entered a low battery state.
What should you not do with the camera?
DO NOT move the camera manually in any case. The movement of the camera can be controlled only by the Remote Control.
What are some aerial photography tips and tricks?
- Perform pre-flight checks.
- Capture photos and record videos during safe flight status.
- Capture photos and record videos in sunny weather with little wind.
- Set camera settings as per shooting requirements, such as video resolution, picture size, etc.
- Carry out a trial flight before an actual flight to help plan the route and frame your photos and videos.
- Push the joystick as slowly as possible during flight to ensure the quadcopter flies smoothly.
What happens when the quadcopter loses connection with the remote control?
If the quadcopter loses connection with the Remote control, the Failsafe mode kicks in and the Automatic Flight Control system will control the Quadcopter, fly it back to the Home Point, and land it safely.
What is the Home Point?
The Quadcopter’s position when the Quadcopter successfully scans the GPS signal.
When does the Quadcopter enter Failsafe mode?
- When the Remote control is powered off.
- The Quadcopter has flown beyond the effective range of the Remote control signal.
- There is interference causing a signal problem with the Remote control.
