10. Setting up the model helicopter
The helicopter battery can be charged using the included USB charging cable.
For photographic reasons, the charging cable is shown in wound condition at the top of Figure 4. Before
first use, remove the cable tie and fully unwind the charging cable.
a) Charging the helicopter battery
Insert the reverse polarity protected plug of the charging
cable (1) into the charging socket (2) of the helicopter bat-
tery (3).
Then connect the USB plug (4) of the charging cable to a
USB port of a computer/laptop or to a USB charger plug.
Optionally, you can use a suitable powerful power bank.
The charging control LED (5) on the USB plug glows
steadily and thus signals the ongoing charging process.
Important:
The USB port output current must be at least
500 mA.
When charging is complete and the flight battery is fully
charged, the red LED of the USB plug goes out.
Disconnect the charging cable from the quadrocopter re-
chargeable battery immediately after charging and unplug
the USB plug of the charging cable from the computer/
laptop or charger plug.
Warning!
Do not connect the USB cable to a USB hub
without its own power supply (e.g. a USB port
on a keyboard), as the charging current is not
sufficient in this case.
The operating system will not recognise any new hard-
ware when the charging cable is connected, as the USB
port is only used for charging.
Please note that the USB ports on computers/laptop are normally only active when the computer/laptop is turned on.
We therefore recommend that you only connect the charging cable to a computer/laptop that is switched on.
Important!
Only use the included charging cable to charge the helicopter battery. Never attempt to charge the re-
chargeable battery with a different/incompatible charger! Only charge the helicopter battery when you are
able to monitor the charging process.
