- Battery: 60 mAh 3.7V (1-Cell) Lithium-Polymer
- Charging connection on left-side
- Charging: 20 minutes
- To dis-engage charging mode, move throttle stick up and down
- Runtime: approx. 4-5 minutes
- Soft cut-off on low battery

Setup
- For the first 5 flights, only run the battery down to 50%, 1.5 minute flighttime, it will help lengthen the life of the LiPo
- If it swings or wobbles when in hover, try to fasten one or both blades (upper/lower)
- Let the motors cool off after a flight, 5-10 minutes
- Check the tail rotor for plastic residue left from the manufacturing
- To enter forward flight mode, remove the tail fin, boom support, and skids, I think this is how it should fly by default! Weight: 15.1 grams
- Optionally, bend the skid support screw-tabs down to raise the body above the on/off-switch sticking out
- When on crash course, immediately push the throttle to low to avoid unnecessary motor and blade wear
- Avoid adding grease, tri-flow oil, or silicone oil, it seems to have an adverse effect on the flight characteristics
- Its metal frame and general good design allows for an amazing amount of improper handling and crashing without much or any damage at all, 1.5m free-fall no problem
Possible tweaks
- Mount small E-flite battery between the skids
- Replace battery with higher capacity E-flite battery [1]
- Removable battery with connector
- Improve cooling of the motors
- Metal fins, funnel, thermal grease
- Remove spring on throttle stick
- Replace metal screws with nylon
- Use higher quality LiPo batteries
- Connect batteries in parallel for double capacity
- Balance weight and flight performance
- Disable LED lights
- Swap controller trim-pot polarization
- Program a better controller
- Different size flybar weights
- Swap the left and right control stick [10]
- For Throttle and Yaw on left and Elevation on right
