Unscrew the screw holding the battery lid to the body. Then lightly pull the clip down to pull the lid away from the transmitter body.

Insert 3 x AA batteries into the battery compartment, making sure to match the polarities. Then replace the lid and firmly tighten the screw to secure the battery compartment.

NOTICE

Please use 3 AA batteries. Use the polarity markings to install in the correct orientation. Do not mix batteries of different types.

CAUTION

If the Radio Control Transmitter will not be used for extended periods of time, please remove the batteries.

WARNING

Please check the AA batteries routinely. If the AA batteries are left within the Radio Control Transmitter, potential leakage and/or corrosion may occur, which can damage the transmitter and create a fire hazard.

CHARGING THE Stellar NX DRONE

1. At the rear of the drone, pull the upper and lower battery clips away from unit. Slide out the battery.
2. Connect the USB charging cable and the battery.
3. Insert the USB connection of the charging cable into a powered USB computer port. Please note: Not all USB ports provide power. Typically, only ports directly on a computer, and not through a peripheral, will provide enough power for charging.
4. A complete charge will take approximately one hour. The LED on the battery will turn off when charging is complete.
5. When the battery is fully charged, immediately disconnect the charging cable from the battery and reinstall the battery into the Stellar NX drone.

NOTICE

When charging with the included USB cable, the LED light will light up red, indicating it is charging. Once charging is complete, the LED light will turn off. Discontinue charging immediately.

WE RECOMMEND!

The Stellar NX battery comes partially charged and is ready to fly. Refer to Remote Control Battery Installation section and use your Stellar NX now. Use this charge completely before charging the Stellar NX battery for the first time.

Your Stellar NX Camera Drone comes with a plastic smartphone holder equipped with a compression clip that lets you view the Stellar NX's footage as it flies. This is done via the ODY Stellar NX app that you can download for free. Please refer to the ODY Stellar NX App Menu & Guide included in your package for further instructions on how to utilize the free app with your drone.

PAIR THE UNIT WITH THE REMOTE CONTROL & START TO FLY

Step 1: Switch on the Drone. The LED lights will start to blink.

Step 2: Turn on the Remote Transmitter. Its power light will illuminate. Wait 5-7 seconds for the electronic gyro to stabilize*.

Step 3: Push the throttle (left) stick up to the 12 o'clock position and then down to the 6 o'clock position. As the remote transmitter searches for the Drone, the power light on the transmitter blinks rapidly.

Step 4: Connection is complete once the power light and the LEDs on the Drone stop blinking. The video feed will also come up on the screen. You're ready to fly!

NOTICE

*Be sure to place the quadcopter on a level surface to ensure a proper and neutral alignment of the gyro.

GOING TO FLIGHT SCHOOL • CONTROLLING THE STELLER NX UNIT

ASCEND/DESCEND	Ease the throttle(left stick) upward in order to make the Stellar NX go higher.Ease the throttle(left stick) downward in order to make the Stellar NX lower in altitude.
FLYING,DIRECTIONS,& TURNING	Use the right stick,(Directional Stick) to move forward or backward. Normally, the Stellar NX's "front" is the cockpit.Push the throttle stick left or right to make the Stellar NX rotate in that particular direction.
	Pressing Right or Left on the Directional stick will strafe the Stellar NX in that direction according to the cockpit.

ADVANCED FEATURES • ALWAYS-ON AUTO HOVER & 360°F FLIPS

ALWAYS-ON AUTO HOVER

Your Stellar NX Drone features an Always-On Auto Hover mode. Just launch the Drone into the sky, take it up to your desired altitude using the left joystick and then release the joystick. The Stellar NX will stay at the desired altitude without further commands needed.

360° FLIP

Press the 360 button once on the bottom right of the radio control transmitter to have it perform 360° flip maneuvers!

To protect your unit from crashes, execute flips at an altitude of 10 feet or more. Your Stellar NX will better perform 360° flips when its drone battery is fully charged.

ONE KEY TAKE-OFF & LANDING

To Take Off:

When your drone is ready for takeoff, push the Throttle (left) stick to the top and then release upward and downward until the flashing lights stop flashing, and then position both sticks in their outside diagonal position- left stick bottom left, and right stick bottom right. The propeller will rotate slowly. Then press the Auto Takeoff button. The drone will rise to a height of approximately 6 feet.

To Land :

When your drone is hovering, press the Auto Takeoff/Landing button. The drone will automatically descend to the ground.

CALIBRATING YOUR REMOTE CONTROL

If the Stellar NX drone tilts to the left or right in flight when it should be hovering, you may need to calibrate trim. To do so:

1. Place your drone on a level surface.
2. Push both joysticks at the same time to the 5 o'clock position (see diagram) and hold the sticks there for 3 seconds.
3. The light indicator will blink rapidly and then return to normal status in about 5 seconds. Your drone trim has been calibrated.

Please Note: There are faint letters on the underside of the propellers which will help you distinguish blade from blade. The top left and back right blades are A1 and match with the A1 blades and the bottom left and top right are B1 and match with the B1 blades.

Please ensure proper installation of the propellers to fly the drone.

STEP 1: The drone comes with four replacement propellers which should be used in case a propeller is lost or breaks due to an accident.

STEP 2: Match your propellers to each wing by the corresponding letter: A, B, and B, A

STEP 3: Place each propeller on the small pin on the corresponding wing.

TROUBLESHOOTING

PROBLEM POS STBSE SOLUTIONS
Transmitter won't power on	Check to make sure the power switch is in the ON position. If set to OFF, move to the ON position.
	Check to make sure the batteries are installed correctly. Check to make sure they match the polarity markings.
	If the batteries are installed correctly, they may be exhausted. Replace with new and fresh batteries.
Lack of control	If your Drone can't be controlled accurately:Make sure the radio control transmitter is set to the ON positionMake sure the battery on the vehicle is installed correctlyThe vehicle may fly erratically if wind conditions are too strong. Fly the vehicle under calm conditions.Make sure the radio control transmitter has paired correctly with the vehicle. If not, power down the vehicle and the radio control and start over.
Failure to gain altitude	If the unit fails to go up in altitude or goes up too slowly, try the following:The rotor speed may be too slow to lift the quadcopter sufficiently. Make sure the throttle is being raised sufficiently. If the unit still does not go up or goes up too slowly, the battery of the quadcopter might be too discharged for safe or satisfactory operation. Charge the battery before continuing to fly the unit.
Avoid crash landings!	Landing the unit takes skill and practice. If your Drone comes down too fast, it could be damaged. Ease the Drone down by slowly lowering the throttle (left) stick until the unit is safely on the ground.

TRIM ADJUSTMENT ON THE RADIO CONTROL TRANSMITTER

Correct trim adjustment is required for error and erratic-free flying of the quadcopter. The adjustment is simple to do on the radio control transmitter, but it requires some patience. Please follow the instructions precisely. For best results, move the throttle up and raise the quadcopter approximately 2-3 feet (0.5-1 meter) in altitude.

If the quadcopter moves by itself is slowly or quickly to the left night:

Press the trim control for banking incrementally in the opposite direction of movement.

If the quadcopter moves by itself is slowly quickly based on its row-axis axis:

Press the trim control for rotation incrementally in the opposite direction of movement.

If the quadcopter moves by itself slowly or quickly forwards or backwards:

Press the trim control for forwards and backwards flight incrementally in the opposite direction of movement.
