• Before taking your initial flight, charge the jet for a complete charge cycle on your charger.
• Depending upon the length of future play, you will not need to complete a full charge before each flight.
NOTE: A shortened charge results in a shorter playtime (may take up to 30-40 minutes to fully charge).
1. Push the ON/OFF switch on the
bottom of the jet to the LEFT to
turn the jet OFF.
2. Set the controller/charger
switch to OFF.
3. Flip the charge door open to
reveal the charge nozzle.

Set the controller/
charger switch

1. Location – Fly in a large wide open, grassy location that is free of buildings, trees, overhead wires, and other
obstructions. Do not fly near people or animals.
2. Weather – Fly on mild, sunny days. Do not fly in electrical storms, rain, sleet, snow or other adverse weather
conditions. Do not fly if the temperature is below 7°C/45°F. In very cold temperatures, the jet will become fragile and the
engine performance will decrease.
3. Wind Conditions – Do not fly in strong winds. Strong winds may overpower the aircraft and make it difficult to control.

NOTE:
We recommend that
you start flying by
hand launching to
get used to the controls.
When preparing for take-off,
check the direction of the wind.
Always launch the jet
against the wind for best
take-off and flight results.
Use your left hand to apply at least
half throttle on the controller/charger.
Gently toss the jet forward into the
wind and parallel to the ground.
Refrain from using the directional
toggle while launching the jet.
If you are taking
off from the
ground, make
sure you are on a
smooth paved
surface, and put
the throttle all the
way forward for
fast acceleration.
