12. Flying Your Drone

Pre-Flight Preparation
If you have never used a drone before and you are not an experienced pilot, make sure to read
these instructions carefully before flying. Get familiar with all of the controls. If necessary, read
through these instructions many times and practice handling the remote control until you feel
completely comfortable and ready.
1. Place your drone in a clear, open field. Make sure that it is resting on a secure, flat surface.
2. Practice using the throttle stick and the directional control stick (see below).
3. By simulating the use of the remote and both sticks, you will grow more comfortable with the
natural motions required during flight and you will learn to react more rapidly to unexpected
circumstances.
