How to charge the battery of the zoopa Q400 HUNTER drone?

Connect the provided micro USB cable to the LiPo battery (already installed) and plug the other end into a power source such as a computer or a power adapter (ref. FCHD43). The red LED light turns on during charging and turns off after about 60 minutes, indicating that charging is complete. Always use the original charger.

How to install batteries in the remote control?

Open the battery compartment on the back of the remote control, insert two AA batteries (not included) respecting polarity, then close the cover. Ensure the compartment is properly locked.

How to mount the landing gear?

Place the two landing gear legs into the slots on the underside of the drone. They snap into place easily without tools.

How to properly turn on the drone and remote control?

Always turn on the remote control first, then the drone. To turn off, do the reverse: drone first, then remote control. The drone and remote control are paired at the factory, no additional manipulation is required.

How to perform a 360° flip?

Press the dedicated button (Flip) on the remote control. The drone will automatically perform a full rotation on its axis. Ensure you have at least 3 meters of free space around the drone.

How to install and use the camera?

How to replace a damaged rotor?

Remove the cover at the center of the rotor, unscrew the screw with the supplied screwdriver, then remove the rotor from the shaft. Install the new rotor checking its color (front orange, rear white) and screw it back. Use only compatible spare propellers (ref. ZQ0400-C).

What to do if the drone does not respond to commands?

First check that the remote control batteries are properly placed and sufficiently charged. Make sure the drone battery is charged and correctly connected. If persists, verify that you are within range (about 100 m) and that the remote control is turned on before the drone.
