Trimming

Use the trim dial to adjust the straight line ﬂight of the dragonﬂy. If the dragonﬂy

naturally steers to the right, slowly turn the trim dial in a clockwise direction to

adjust the steer.

If the dragonﬂy steers to the left, slowly turn the trim dial in a counter-clockwise

direction. Avoid using the right (directional) stick while adjusting the trim as

your trim settings might be inaccurate.

You can also use the trim dial to make the dragonﬂy ﬂy in constant circles.Turn

the trim dial clockwise to ﬂy the dragonﬂy in a counter-clockwise circle; turn the

trim dial counter-clockwise to ﬂy the dragonﬂy in a clockwise circle.

NOTE: Adjusting the trim can make the dragonﬂy’s tail rotor spin even when not

ﬂying.

Tips and tricks

• When launching the dragonﬂy, hold it level

by the middle of the body and gently push it

forward as you would with a paper airplane,

while holding the left stick (throttle control)

at about half-power. If it starts to ﬂy upwards,

release some of the power so that it stays level.

• Avoid making turns while the nose is pointed

upwards, or the dragonﬂy will dive-bomb.

• The tail ribbon is ideal as a training aid,

especially when in small spaces,and helps

restrict ﬂying speed.

• When ﬂying the dragonﬂy outdoors, take

note that the calmest times of the day are

usually at dawn and at dusk.If it is a bit

windy outdoors,avoid ﬂying the dragonﬂy at

wind speeds higher than 4 mph (1.75 km/h).

• With more practice and expertise, it will

also be possible to make the dragonﬂy take

off into the air from the ground. Place the

dragonﬂy on a smooth and ﬂat surface that

is long enough to allow it room to take off

(for example, a hallway).

Replacing the wings

You can replace the original wings on your dragonﬂy if they become damaged or

you want it to have a different look. A spare set of wings is included in the FlyTech

Dragonﬂy package.To replace the wings, do the following:

1. Make sure the controller and the dragonﬂy are turned off.

2. Remove the old pair of wings.There are

two sets of wings on the dragonﬂy. Gently

remove the ﬁrst pair of wings by ﬁrst

pulling the wing rods out from the sockets.

Then, pull the wings off the hook at the end

of the body area.

Repeat for the second pair of wings. Be careful not to touch any broken edges.

3. Install the new pair as illustrated, by

reversing the instructions for removing the

damaged wings. Hook the rear part of the

ﬁrst pair of wings onto the hook at the end

of the body, and then slide the wing rods

into their sockets. Repeat for the second

pair of wings.

NOTE: Test the dragonﬂy after installing the new wings. If the dragonﬂy cannot

ﬂy in a straight line, or experiences difﬁculty when airborne, try swapping the

new left and right wings.

Replacing the propeller

You can replace the original rotor propeller on your dragonﬂy if the original one

becomes damaged. A spare propeller is included in the FlyTech Dragonﬂy package.

To replace the damaged rotor propeller:

1. Make sure the controller and

the dragonﬂy are turned off

before removing the propeller.

2. Using a pair of pliers, grasp the

damaged rotor propeller and

pull it off the axle as indicated in the diagram.

3. Insert the new rotor propeller into the axle carefully, making sure it is secure. Be

careful not to damage the motor.

4.Turn the propeller manually to make sure it does not snag on the tail of the

dragonﬂy.

FAQ

The following is a list of frequently asked questions regarding the FlyTech

Dragonﬂy.

Q: My dragonﬂy won’t ﬂy straight when I am ﬂying it indoors! …

A: Your problem might be due to indoor sources of air currents keeping the

dragonﬂy from ﬂying straight.Try turning off fans and closing air conditioning

vents. If there are open windows, try closing them to avoid creating drafts.

Q: My dragonﬂy won’t ﬂy straight when I am ﬂying it outdoors! …

A: You might be ﬂying the dragonﬂy in conditions that are too windy…Try to

ﬁnd a location that is sheltered from the wind, such as between buildings or in

a walled-off courtyard. For optimal operation, avoid ﬂying the dragonﬂy in wind

speeds higher than 4mph (1.75 km/h).

Q: The tail rotor propeller on my dragonﬂy keeps spinning, and I can’t stop it! …

A: You have probably turned the trim dial.The trim dial controls the rotor speed.

Adjust the trim by slowly turning the trim dial on the controller until the rotor

stops spinning.

Q: My dragonﬂy stops working when it gets farther away! …

A: Your dragonﬂy is most likely out of range for the controller.The recommended

range for controlling your dragonﬂy is 50 feet (15 meters) or less from the

controller.To fully take advantage of the ﬂight control, make sure the antenna on

the controller is fully extended.

Q: My dragonﬂy won’t stay up, even after charging! …

A: The batteries in the controller might be getting weak, in which case,you will

need to change the batteries.The batteries in the controller will usually last

about ten ﬂight-recharge cycles.You should always turn the controller and the

dragonﬂy off when not in use.
