Recharging the LiPo rechargeable battery
Make sure you only charge the LiPo rechargeable battery supplied with the
LiPo charging unit also supplied (USB cable and remote control). If you try to
charge the rechargeable battery with a different LiPo battery charger or any
other battery charger, this might cause serious damage. Please carefully read
the previous chapter with warnings and guidelines on the usage of rechargea-
ble batteries before proceeding. Supply terminals are not to be short-circuited.
You can charge the rechargeable battery fitted in the Quadrocopter with its
USB charging cable from a USB port on a computer:
Charging via computer:
2a
• Rechargeable batteries are to be removed from the model before
being charged.
• Connect the USB charging cable with the USB port of a computer. The
LED on the USB charger cable lights green indicating that the charger
unit is correctly connected to the computer. If you plug in a Quadrocopter
with a discharged battery, the LED on the USB charging cable no longer
lights up, showing that the Quadrocopter battery is being charged. The
USB charging cable and the charging socket on the Quadrocopter are
designed to make incorrect connection impossible.
• It takes about 60 minutes to recharge a discharged battery (but NOT
a deep-discharged one). When the battery is fully charged, the LED
display on the USB charger cable lights up green again.
Note: when supplied, the lipo-battery is already partially charged. So the
first charging cycle may well take less time.
It is essential to follow the connection sequence given above!
Undo the plugged connection on the Quadrocopter when you are not
using the Quadrocopter. Failure to observe this precaution may cause
battery damage!
Insertion of the rechargeable batteries into the Quadrocopter
2b
• Open the cover of the battery compartment with the aid of the enclosed
screwdriver. Insert the battery. Close the battery compartment.
• If the LED on the Quadrocopter flashes slowly, you must change the
battery.
Inserting the batteries in the remote control
Open the battery compartment with a screwdriver and insert the batteries
3
in the remote control. Please keep in mind the correct polarity. Different
types of batteries or new and used batteries are not to be mixed. After having
closed the compartment you can check all functions of the remote control with
the help of the power-switch on the front.
With the power switch turned ON and functioning correctly, the top centre LED
on the remote control will light up red. If the LED control flashes slowly and
an acoustic signal is heard, the batteries in the controller must be changed.
Frequency bind between model and remote control
The Carrera RC Quadrocopter and the controller automatically link up
4
renewed with every operational start-up. If initially there are any problems
with communication between the Carrera RC Quadrocopter and the remote
control, please carry out a new frequency bind.
• Connect the battery in the model.
• The LEDs on the quadrocopter now flash rhythmically.
• Switch on the controller at the power switch.
• WARNING! Immediately after switching it on, place the Quadrocopter on
a flat and level surface. The gyro-system will then set itself automatically.
• Slide the left joystick, thus the gas lever, completely up and down again into
the zero position.
• Allow the helicopter a few moments until the system is correctly initialised
and is ready for operation.
• The binding has now been successfully established.
• The LED on the controller now lights continuously.

Choosing the flight area
When being prepared for the first flight you should choose a closed
8
room which is as large as possible without any persons or obstacles.
Due to its size and controllability, experienced pilots may be able to
fly the Quadrocopter in relatively small rooms. For your first flights
we strongly recommend you choose a room with a minimum floor
space of 5 x 5 metres and 2.40 metres in height. After having
trimmed your Quadrocopter for flight and made yourself familiar
with the controller and its functions you may start flying in smaller
and less open environments.
To be used in domestic area (house and garden) only.
no persons or objects such as pillars between the controller and the
Quadrocopter to obstruct direct connection.
Checklist for flight preparation
This checklist is not a substitute for the contents of the operating instructions.
Although it can be used as a quick-start-guide, we strongly recommend you
first to read the operating instructions in detail before you proceed.
• Check the contents of the package.
• Charge the lipo-battery as described in the section "Recharging the LiPo
rechargeable battery".
• Fit 2 AA batteries in the controller, making sure their polarity is correct.
• Look for a suitable environment for flying.
• Slide the battery into the battery bay on the bottom of the Quadrocopter.
• Connect the battery in the model.
• Link as described in 4 .

• Press the button to start the helicopter (Figure
• Important note! Please perform the auto-trimming
flight without fail!
• Check the control system.
• Make yourself familiar with the control system.
• Trim the Quadrocopter as necessary as described under
so that when hovering it no longer moves from the spot without a com-
mand from the controller.
• The Quadrocopter is now ready to be flown.
• If the Quadrocopter displays no functions, retry the above binding procedure.
• Fly the model.
• Land the model.
• Disconnect the battery plug connection.
• Always switch off the remote control last.
Flying the 4-channel Quadrocopter
NOTE!
Take care particularly in the first few flights to move the lever on the
controller very gently and not over-hurriedly. As a rule, only very small
movements of the respective levers are necessary to carry out the de-
sired control commands!
If you notice that the Quadrocopter moves forwards or to the side without your
touching the respective lever, please adjust the trim of the Quadrocopter as
described in .
