ZIPP NANO™ DIAGRAMREMOTE DIAGRAMLanding GearSafety GuardRotor BladeFLYING TIPS• It is recommended that you operate the Zipp Nano™ in a wide space. The ideal space should      have a 200 foot radius. • Parental guidance or adult supervision is suggested at all times.• If you are flying the Zipp Nano™ with others, make sure all spectators are behind you.• For best performance, it is recommended that you operate the Zipp Nano™ in zero wind conditions.     Wind can greatly affect the performance of the Zipp Nano™.Important! When syncing your Zipp Nano™ copter with the controller always make sure that the copter is on a flat level surface. This insures that the 6 Axis gyro is properly programmed to mimic your trim settings.Your Zipp Nano™ utilizes an automatic 2.4G channel selection system that allows up to 8 people to fly side by side in the same wireless range.For One Person Play:1. Before starting, make sure that the power on both your controller and Zipp Nano™ are in the OFF     position. Make sure that there are no other 2.4G devices in the area as well. 2. Turn ON the Zipp Nano™ and set it down on a flat surface. The white and red LED indicators of the     Zipp Nano™ should flash.3. ON the remote , pull the throttle all the way down, then turn ON your remote and You will hear 2 short     beeps, the white and red LED lights start flashing faster,  Push the throttle all the way up and pull it    down,  your Zipp Nano™ and remote should have successfully synced. Should this not happen, repeat    all steps again. For Multi Person Play: 4. Before starting, make sure that the power on all Zipp Nanos and Controllers are in the OFF position.        Make sure that there are no other 2.4G devices in the area as well.5. Each person will have to sync their Zipp Nano™ individually at a different time to avoid interference.     Follow steps 1 to 3 above making sure to keep away from other people while also making sure that     no one else is syncing at the same time. 6. After syncing a players Zipp Nano™, it should be left ON until all players have synced their Zipp Nano™. 7. Should there be a mistake/interference, all players must turn off their controllers and Zipp Nano™ and      start the process all over again.

To do this place the Zipp Nano™ on a level surface, pull both of the control levers on the remote down and to the right (approximately 45º) at the same time. The LEDs on the Zipp Nano™ will flash quickly and then remain solid, this indicates your drone has been stabilized (see diagram below). 7 8
ZIPP NANO™ WARNING:The Zipp Nano™ is designed for INDOOR and OUTDOOR use.  The Zipp Nano™ blades revolve at high speeds and can cause damage to the user, spectators and animals. Stand away from the Zipp Nano™ to reduce the risk of getting into the flight path. Warn spectators that you will be flying your Zipp Nano™ so that they are aware of its position. Before flight, inspect the rotor blades to make certain that the blades are securely fastened to the Zipp Nano™.WARNING!• Choking/Cutting Hazard. Small Parts/Sharp Rotor Blades.• Keep hands, hair and loose clothing away from the propeller when the power switch is turned to the ON position.• Turn off the transmitter and Zipp Nano™ power switches when not in use.• The included charger is built specifically for the Zipp Nano™ Li-Poly battery. Do not use it to charge any other battery.• New alkaline batteries are recommended for maximum performance.• Parental supervision recommended when flying Zipp Nano™.BATTERY WARNINGSRECHARGEABLE BATTERY:This Zipp Nano™ uses a Li-Poly rechargeable battery.  If battery no longer stays charged, dispose of battery properly according to local disposal requirements.CONTROLLER BATTERIES:Remote control requires 2 “AAA” batteries (not included). Please read the important battery safety warning below.• Do not mix alkaline, standard (carbon-zinc) and rechargeable batteries (Nickel Metal Hydride).• Do not mix old and new batteries.• Non-rechargeable batteries are not to be recharged.• Rechargeable batteries are to be removed from the item before being charged (if removable).• Rechargeable batteries are only to be charged under adult supervision.• Exhausted batteries should be removed immediately and must be recycled or disposed of properly   according to state or local government ordinances and regulations.• The supply terminals are not to be short-circuited.• Only batteries of the same or equivalent type as recommended are to be used.• Batteries are to be inserted with the correct polarity (see inside booklet for diagram).• Do not dispose batteries in a fire - batteries may leak or explode.CARE AND MAINTENANCE• Always remove the batteries from the wireless infrared remote control when it is not being used for an extended period   of time.• To clean, gently wipe the remote control and Zipp Nano™ with a clean damp cloth.• Keep the toy away from direct heat or sunlight.• Do not submerge the toy into water. This can damage the unit beyond repair.• Parental guidance recommended when installing or replacing the batteries.HOW TO DO 360º STUNT ROLLS1. In order to make your Zipp Nano™ do 360º rolls you must fully charge your battery.        Note: The Zipp Nano™ will not do 360º stunt rolls in T-Mode, Mode1 and under low  battery       indication (The LED lights on the drone will be flashing). 2. Once you are ready to attempt a 360º roll, simply depress and let go of the "STUNT" button on the top     right hand side of your controller (see Remote Diagram on page 3), you will hear a sound. This means     you are now in “STUNT MODE”3. Now quickly move your right control stick in any of 4 directions; up, down, left or right and your Zipp     Nano™ copter will instantly roll in the associated direction. See diagram below. REPLACING THE PROPELLER BLADEYour Zipp Nano™ propeller system is a precision instrument that may need repair or replacement from time to time for optimal flight function. Crash landing from high-speed aerial flights may cause damage to your Zipp Nano™ propellers.1. The Zipp Nano™ has four blades, two A & B blades on front, and two B & A blades on back     (see the diagram E).2. Pick up a blade from the included spare parts and match     the marking to the diagram E. 3. Replacing the correct blade to the broken blade.E9 10FrontABBAL360˚Stunt-RollM
