Instant Fly Kit Manual

General Information

Thank you for choosing our instant fly kit! This comprehensive kit equips you with everything necessary for a seamless entry into the world of FPV. This guide aims to provide an overview of each component and its functions, offering fundamental knowledge essential for a safe and successful beginning in FPV.

Be aware: (Most) of our Drones are no toys. Please be aware of injury especially with the bigger models. Do not plug in the battery when on the bench unless propellers are removed or a smoke-stopper is used.

Battery Information

Our Drones and equipment rely on LiPo and/or LiIon Batteries for power. While these advanced battery technologies allow us to operate high-powered devices, it's important to handle and use them cautiously to prioritize everyone's safety.

LiPo is short for lithium polymer battery, while LiIon represents lithium ion battery.

LiPo batteries function between 3.2v (empty) and 4.2v (fully charged), and LiIon batteries operate within a range of 3.1v (empty) to 4.1v (fully charged). Discharging beyond these limits destroys the battery beyond repair. For safety, it's crucial never to leave a LiPo or LiIon battery charging unattended. Regularly inspect your batteries for any physical damage, such as bent or swollen cells, or any unusual odors.

Battery charger

The ToolkitRC M6D charger is a remarkably compact and robust charger compatible with various battery types. It allows simultaneous charging of two batteries. Prior to charging, it's essential to select the correct battery type (LiPo or LiIon) and charge current from the menu. The number of cells is automatically detected when a battery is connected. Together with the M6D charger a 180W power supply is provided. This should be used to power the charger from a 220V power outlet.

To determine the ideal charge current for your battery, follow these guidelines:

For LiPo batteries: Charge at “1C,” which means 1x its capacity. For instance, a 1400mAh LiPo should be charged at 1.4A, while a 1800mAh LiPo should be charged at 1.8A.

For LiIon batteries: Charge at 0.5C. For example, a 5000mAh LiIon battery should be charged at 2.5A.

It's important to note that while batteries might support higher charge rates, doing so can impact their lifespan. Optimal charge rates strike a balance between faster charging and battery longevity.

As a bonus, the M6D could also be powered by a big 12V “field battery” to charge your flight batteries on the go. Usually big LiIon battery packs are best for field batteries as their capacity / weight ratios are high.

Remote controller

The stock configuration for TBS Tango 2 and Radiomaster TX16S is according to the following pictures.

If you want to change the function of the buttons on your remote controller please check our BNF manual for instructions.

IMPORTANT

For all models that support GPS rescue: The GPS rescue should not be activated if you are within 100m of the starting point. If the drone is within 100m radius of the starting point and GPS rescue is activated, the drone will drop form the sky. Only activate GPS rescue manually if the drone is more than 100m away from its starting point.
