1. Place the TURBO-X Drone on a flat LEVEL surface and turn power on
2. Align joysticks as shown in (Figure 1), Left stick down, right stick center
3. Turn the controller on by sliding the power switch to the left
4. Power Indicator light will begin flashing, indicating it is ready to pair
5. Move left joystick FULLY UP (Figure 2) then FULLY DOWN (Figure 3)
6. Lights on both the TURBO-X and the Controller will remain solid
7. Your TURBO-X and Controller are now paired and ready for flight!

The throttle on the TURBO-X will take some practice to achieve a good hover. We recommend using your thumb and index finger to make small adjustments to the throttle stick; you can progress to just your thumb with experience. The TURBO-X will start out in LOW Speed, please start here to get acquainted.

When you first take off you should attempt to level the TURBO-X into a hover.

Begin with the drone in front of you with the bow of the drone facing forward.

Take off and begin to maintain a steady height around 3 feet off the ground.

If the TURBO-X drifts in any one direction you can use the Trimmer Tabs to make precision adjustments to the motors in order to keep the drone centered.

For Example: If the TURBO-X drifts toward you (reverse) press Trimmer A UP one click at a time until it stays steady, if it drifts away (forward) press DOWN.

Each click is one adjustment, you can click in the opposite direction until you hear a LONG BEEP, that indicates you are back at the center setting.

The same is true if it drifts Left, you would press Trimmer B RIGHT and if it drifts Right, you would adjust the Trim LEFT until it stays centered.

This is important if you want to have precision flight with takeoff and landing.

If you just want to fly around and have fun, it may not matter if it drifts a little.

SPEED SETTINGS

There are 3 unique speed settings programmed into the TURBO-X. To change speeds at any time simply press the Left Stick IN (Figure 1) Pressing multiple times allows you to cycle through all of the speeds. Each speed is indicated by a corresponding number of beeps.

(Figure 1)

Low Speed:

This is the Default speed every time you power up, indicated by a single beep. Low speed on the TURBO-X is the equivalent of most other models' medium or high speed.

Medium Speed:

Indicated by two beeps. Medium speed is twice as fast as low speed and is able to be used both indoors and outdoors in light winds.

TURBO-X Speed:

Indicated by three beeps, this is the fastest speed available in a drone this small. Clocked at speeds of 30 MPH, it is capable of flight outdoors in low-med winds but is not recommended for indoor use, particularly in tight or crowded areas where damage may occur. DO NOT FLY INTO PEOPLE, ANIMALS or PROPERTY!

FLIPS AND ROLLS

The TURBO-X is pre-programmed with an algorithm to perform flips and rolls with ease, simply press the Right Joystick IN (Figure 2) to enter "Trick Mode" Once in "Trick Mode" - indicated by beeping, simply push the Right Stick fully in the direction you want to flip or roll! (SEE NEXT PAGE)

TROUBLESHOOTING

In the event you have issues with your TURBO-X please check here:

Drone won't lift off of ground:

1. Check the orientation of your blades to match (Figure 1) below
2. Make sure your drone and remote batteries are fully charged
3. Check that blades are not bent or damaged, replace as needed

Drone drifts heavily in one direction:

1. Make sure your Trimmer settings are at CENTER (page 6)
2. Make sure all blades are evenly and fully seated on driveshafts
3. Restart and Pair Drone and Controller (page 4)
4. If 1-3 did not solve please recalibrate your drone (page 10)
5. If 1-4 did not work you are in a hurricane, seek shelter

Controller and Drone won't connect:

1. Replace the batteries in the controller with BRAND NEW ones
2. Fully charge the drone and try again (page 4)

Drone won't hover, keeps going up and down:

1. Use thumb and index finger on throttle to make smaller adjustments
2. Check that blades are not damaged or on incorrectly
3. Drink less coffee, take yoga, breathe and relax :)

One or more lights/motors stopped working:

1. You broke it dude, give us a shout for a discount on your next one!

CHANGING BLADES

• To remove blades, firmly grasp the center of the blade and pull UP.
• To replace blades, firmly press the new blade DOWN onto shaft.
• Orientation of blades should be as shown below when viewing drone from rear to front AND from front to rear:

RECALIBRATION OF ACCELEROMETER

If your TURBO-X begins to be unstable during flight, drifts heavily in one direction or troubleshooting doesn't work please do the following:

1. Turn off Drone and Controller
2. Make sure that all batteries are fully charged
3. Place Drone on flat LEVEL surface
4. Turn Drone on, Turn Controller on and pair (page 4)
5. Keep Throttle (Left Stick) at lowest point
6. Set speed level to TURBO-X (three beeps, page 7)
7. Push the Throttle (Left Stick) to Lower Left, HOLD
8. Push Control (Right Stick) to Upper Left, HOLD

1. Drone will flash for 1-2 seconds indicating success.
2. Take off and enjoy!

POWER FAILURE FROM CRASH

If your TURBO-X crashes, becomes entangled or blades jam, it should automatically shut itself off to prevent further damage or danger.

If battery is fully charged, you should be able to turn the power switch off and then back on and repeat the pair cycle (page 4).

If the drone fails to turn back on, please turn it off and fully charge. Be sure to watch the drone after a bad crash to make sure the battery does not overheat while charging; if it does, please dispose of it.
