START-UP PROCEDURE

NOTE:

1. If after 30 seconds, it has not recognized the drone, turn off the controller

and repeat Start-Up procedure.

Before ﬂying, the drone and transmitter must be turned on in sequence

and synchronized.

1. Turn on the drone by pressing the on button and holding for 3 seconds. The

lights on both sides of the drone will ﬂash to indicate it’s on. Place it on an

even surface. The green lights on the drone are at the front and the red are at

the back.

2. Turn on the remote control.

3. Push the throttle the down and then release. The remote will beep three times

and the ﬂashing lights on the drone and remote will turn steady to indicate it

has synced.

4. Your drone is now synchronized, and in stand-by mode awaiting Engine

Idle command.

STARTING THE ENGINE; ENGINE IDLE

After synchronizing the drone, move the throttle and direction sticks in to the lower

center corners (blue lines) and release to go into Idle mode. The blades will rotate

but the drone will not lift.

START-UP PROCEDURE

COMPASS MODE

Users have the option to exit the default orientation (green lights at the front,

red lights at the back). In Compass Mode, users can operate the drone without

orientation. Regardless of where the drone is pointing, it will turn left or right

according to the remote’s command.

Compass Mode is good for beginners and is useful for drones that ﬂy too far away

for the user to be able to tell the orientation.

Follow the below instructions to change to Compass Mode:

1) It is easiest to set up Compass Mode before ﬂight. Sync and turn on

the engines.

2) Make sure your drone is aligned with the remote as indicated in the picture.

3) Press down on the Compass Mode button once. The drone’s left and right

LEDs will start to alternately ﬂash. This indicates that the drone is now in

Compass Mode.

4) Press the Compass Mode button again to leave Compass Mode.

OPERATION: FLYING THE DRONE

TAKE–OFF:

1. Press the take off button. The remote will beep and the drone will hover a

few feet off the ground. Then gently advance the throttle to a desired height

and release. The drone will hover at that height.*

2. From Idle mode, gently advance the throttle up to a desired height and

release. The drone will hover at that height.*

LANDING:

1. Press the landing button to lower the drone to the ground.

2. Push down on the throttle until the drone is on the ground.

DOWN

NOTE:

- Emergency Shut Off: When in ﬂight,

pull the throttle and direction stick to

the center at the same time and the

drone will shut off.

Press the Take Off/Landing Button

and hold. The engine will shut off.

* The drone may drift a bit, especially in the ﬁrst

30 seconds until the altitude sensor gets a good ﬁx on the position.

Some drift is normal.

OPERATION: FLYING THE DRONE

Pull the throttle left or right,

the drone turns to the left or right.

Push the direction lever up or down,

the drone ﬂies forward or backward.

Pull the direction lever to the left or right,

the drone banks to the left or right.

FIRST TIME FLYERS!!! TAKE YOUR TIME! GO SLOW!

Practice hovering until you are comfortable with ﬂight before attempting any

other maneuvers. Make small movements letting the stick return to the center.

If you start to lose control, don’t panic. Just press land.

SPEED MODES

The Dura VR features multiple speed modes. Choose the speed based on ﬂight

experience and level of comfort. At higher speeds, the drone will pitch more than

at lower speeds. Dura VR is quite fast at its highest speed and requires more

piloting skills to ﬂy competently. For safety take time to develop advanced skills

by practicing at lower speeds ﬁrst. Press the Speed +/- button to change the

speed mode. The remote control indicator will beep once at slowest speed mode

and multiple times as speed mode is increased.

SIDEWAYS TRIM

When the drone drifts to the left or right side unintentionally, you can correct it

by holding down the trim button and pushing the direction stick in the opposite

direction until it evens out.

FORWARD/BACKWARD TRIM

When the drone drifts forward/backward unintentionally, you can correct it by

holding down the trim button and pushing the direction stick in the opposite

direction until it evens out.

LEFT/RIGHT TURN TRIM

When the drone spins left/right unintentionally, you can correct it by holding

down the trim button and pushing the throttle in the opposite direction until it

evens out.

*NOTE: Trim adjustments are designed to counter drifts not caused by wind.

TROUBLESHOOTING

LOW BATTERY ALARM

The remote will start to beep in ﬂight and the lights will ﬂash when the battery is

low. Land the drone as soon as possible and recharge the drone.

OUT OF RANGE ALARM

When the drone is close to ﬂying out of range, the remote will beep rapidly. Fly

the drone back into range immediately or you may lose control of the drone.

RE-CALIBRATING THE DRONE

If the drone crashes and after re-starting and trimming, it still is unstable, you

have the option to re-calibrate the drone.

1. Turn on the drone and then the remote and sync.

2. Push and hold the direction stick to the lower right corner.

3. The lights will ﬂash and the remote will beep to indicate that the drone

has re-calibrated.

TROUBLESHOOTING

POSSIBLE CAUSESYMPTOM POTENTIAL SOLUTION

Dura VR

does not

respond

1. Communication between

controller and aircraft was not

synchronized during set up

2. Battery power depleted on

aircraft, controller or both.

1. To synchronize, turn on aircraft

ﬁrst, place it on level ground, and

then turn on controller.

2. Charge aircraft and/or replace

batteries in controller.

Response to

control inputs

intermittent or

erratic

1. Controller battery power

nearly depleted.

1. Replace batteries in controller.

Dura VR

will not hover

or strafe

correctly

1. The aircraft was not

on level ground during

synchronization.

2. Trim settings are incorrect.

1. Re-synchronize aircraft and

controller.

2. Reset the trim buttons on the

controller and re-trim ﬂight controls.

*Allow 15 minutes to pass between full ﬂights as this will give the motors a chance

to cool down. Failure to do so could wear out and shorten the life of the motors.

HOW TO CHANGE THE BLADES

- All drones have two rotors that spin clockwise and two rotors that spin

counter-clockwise.

- Make sure to place the blades on the correct axis or they will not spin

correctly and the drone will not lift.

- Each blade is marked with A or B. There may be a number after the

letter but you can ignore the number.

- Make sure to follow the graphic below to see where to place the blades.

1. If a propeller is stuck, the

motors will automatically stop

running.

1. Pull the throttle down and release

to start the engines.

FLYING OUTDOORS

HOW TO PREVENT FLY AWAYS

To prevent “ﬂy-away” situations (where drones seem to ﬂy away out of

control) it is important to ﬁrst test and practice within close range before

letting the drone ﬂy too far away.

Each drone is designed to turn off the engines if the radio signal is lost.

It is important to know and test the range of your drone before ﬂying. We

recommend turning on and syncing the drone and walking away while

testing the engines. Keep walking and testing until it is obvious when you

reach the point where the signal is not controlling the drone. This will be

the control limit for the conditions in which you are ﬂying. Distance does

vary somewhat based on environmental and weather conditions, so testing

the limit is advised. Fly in a range that is good for easy visual operation of

the drone.

IF YOU CAN’T SEE YOUR DRONE, THEN YOU CAN’T CONTROL

YOUR DRONE.

* Fly-aways are not covered by warranty as they are overwhelmingly caused

by pilot error.
