Recharging the LiPo rechargeable battery
Please make sure that you charge the provided 3.7 V
battery only with the provided 5 V 550 mA LiPo battery charger. Rechargeable
batteries are to be removed from the toy before being charged. In case you try to
charge the rechargeable battery with a different LiPo battery charger or any other bat-
tery charger, this might cause serious damages. Please carefully read the previous
chapter about warnings and guidelines on the usage of rechargeable batteries before
proceeding. Supply terminals are not to be short-circuited.

Please proceed as follows when charging the rechargeable battery with the appropri-
ate battery charger:
• Please choose between power socket- or battery-driven charging.
• When using the power socket for charging the battery, connect the battery charger
with the power socket. The yellow LED on the power supply unit indicates that the
charger has correctly been connected to the socket.
• In case of battery-driven charging open the cover at the bottom of the battery
charger with the help of a screwdriver and insert the four provided AA batteries.
Please keep in mind the correct polarity. Close the lid again after the batteries have
been set in. You can assume that you can charge the LiPo battery about 10-15 times
before having to change the AA-batteries in the battery charger.
• Insert the battery into the charger. The battery is specially designed so that it can
only be inserted in one direction (the battery´s writing mainly faces upwards) in order
to avoid reverse polarity. Nonetheless check the proper position and the correct polar-
ity before proceeding with the next step.
• Carefully push the battery and its plug-in connector into the designated charger´s
slot. Again make sure that the polarity is correct before inserting the battery.
• Has the battery been inserted correctly, the red LED on the charger lights up to indi-
cate that the battery is now being recharged.
• It takes approximately 30 minutes to recharge a discharged battery (not exhaus-
tively discharged). As soon as the battery is completely charged the LED on the
charger lights up green.
Note: When delivered, the LiPo rechargeable battery is partly charged. Therefore the
first charging might only take about 15-20 minutes.

Open the battery compartment with a
screwdriver and insert the batteries in
the remote control. Please keep in mind
the correct polarity. Different types of
batteries or new and used batteries are
not to be mixed. After having closed the
compartment you can check all func-
tions of the remote control with the help
of the power-switch on the front. With
the power-switch turned ON and proper
functioning, the top center LED on the
remote control will light up red.
When the control LED flashes rapidly,
the batteries in the controller must be
changed.

Note: push the battery up against the battery holder. This makes sure that the centre
of mass is in an optimum position and guarantees top flght performance.

Checklist for flight preparation
This checklist does not replace the contents of the operating instructions. Although it
can be used as a quick-start-guide we strongly advise to first read the operating
instructions in detail before you proceed.
• Generally switch on the remote control first.
• Insert the battery in the designated holder at the helicopter´s bottom.
• Place the helicopter on a flat surface and wait a moment until the system is correctly
initialised and is ready for use.

• Push the left-hand joystick slowly and with care up to the top and down to the bottom
twice to activate the existing connection.
• The LED in the helicopter is now lit continuously.
• The helicopter is now ready to be flown.
• If the helicopter fails to display any function, connect the model with the controller
as necessary, as shown below.
• Fly the model

After the LiPo battery has been fully
charged it can be inserted in the heli-
copter. Therefore push the battery into
the battery holder at the bottom side of
the helicopter´s body. Please make sure
that the plug faces towards the front of
the helicopter.
The Carrera RC helicopter and the remote
control are frequency bound at purchase.
Should there occur any problems with the
communication between the Carrera RC
helicopter and the remote control at the
beginning, please carry out a new fre-
quency bind.
