Welcome to the BladeRunner HeliQuad 2.4. The BladeRunner HeliQuad brings advanced, hobby-level 4-Channel

flying technology to beginner or advanced flyers who are looking for great performance from a Quadrotor Helicopter.

The BladeRunner HeliQuad has 32 bit MCU technology as well as a built-in advanced 3+3 gyroscope which provides

an ultra-smooth flight, and balance control assistance. A 3D (3 axis) accelerometer detects the flight condition during

operation. The 32 bit on-board microprocessor also provides continuous in-flight assistance for control comfort and

smooth actions. The BladeRunner HeliQuad operates indoors and outdoors on the 2.4 GHz frequency, allowing up to

6 units to fly in the same area within a 100' (30 Meters) range. The 2.4GHz Controller is a digital proportional radio,

therefore small movements in the Control Sticks produce precise control. Do not throw away this instruction manual

as it contains valuable information for the operation of your HeliQuad as well as warranty information. The helpful tips

in this pilot’s manual will improve your skills and enhance your experience. Look for these symbols for extra help.

As the BladeRunner HeliQuad is flying towards you, you will naturally experience a phenomenon called “Control Reversal”.

This is normal and just takes a little practice to master. Below is a short list of the effects:
-Moving the right stick to the right will make the HeliQuad turn to your left.

-Moving the right stick to the left will make the HeliQuad turn to your right.

-Moving the left stick to the right will make the HeliQuad slide to your left.

-Moving the left stick to the left will make the HeliQuad slide to your right
5. To land your HeliQuad, gently and gradually move the Left Stick all the way down. This will slow the rotation of the 4 Rotors and the

HeliQuad will land. It is very important to NOT move the Left Stick all the way down suddenly, as the Rotors will stop spinning instantly

and the HeliQuad will fall and possibly sustain damage.
6 - A. To fly again, it may or may not be necessary to recharge your HeliQuad, depending on the charge that is remaining in the

HeliQuad’s internal Lithium-Polymer battery. Simply follow the steps described in the “CHARGING YOUR BLADERUNNER HELIQUAD

2.4” section above to recharge your HeliQuad.
6 - B. If you are finished playing, turn off the BladeRunner HeliQuad and 2.4 GHz Controller by sliding their respective On / Off Switches

to the off position.

FLYING YOUR BLADERUNNER HELIQUAD 2.4: (Continued)

The HeliQuad 2.4 is capable of performing stunts by flipping forward, backwards, or sideways 360º. To perform a flipping stunt follow the

next steps:

IMPORTANT: The HeliQuad 2.4 must be hovering with alttitude NOT LESS than 6.6’ (2 meters) from the

ground to perform stunt actions.
1. Press the Alt Button. The Controller's LED will flash rapidly. The Controller will also emit a rapid beeping sound.

2. Choose the stunt flip direction with the Right Stick as follows: -Flip to the right - Move the Right Stick to the right.

-Flip to the left - Move the Right Stick to the left.

-Flip forward - Move the Right Stick up.

-Flip backwards - Move the Right Stick down.

3. When the stunt is complete, the HeliQuad will hover normally. The Controller will stop beeping and its LED will light up continuously.
If you want to cancel the stunt after the Alt Button has been pressed, do not move the Right Stick. Just press the Alt Button again to

resume normal flight. The Controller's LED will stop flashing and the Controller will stop beeping.

ALT BUTTON - STUNT MODE:

In the event that any of your Rotor Blades sustain damage, they are easy to replace by following these steps. Note, there are 4 different

Rotor Blades on the HeliQuad. There is an extra set of all 4 blades included within your HeliQuad package.
Rotor Blade Replacement:

1. Locate the broken Rotor Blade and gently pull it upwards off of the axle shaft.
2. Note the color (red or black) of the Rotor Blade as well as the rotational direction indicator

(CW or CCW) at the bottom of the Rotor Blade. It is important that the correctly colored

Rotor Blade with the proper indicator is mounted on each axle shaft or the HeliQuad will not

fly correctly. The color helps to distinguish the frontal area of the HeliQuad from the rear

area when the unit is flying. The red Rotor Blades should be at the front, and the black Rotor

Blades should be at the rear of the HeliQuad. When looking at the HeliQuad from the top,

the correct layout pattern is as shown:
3. Install a new Rotor Blade in the same location on the rotor hub by sliding it on gently.

Your BladeRunner HeliQuad is ready to fly again.

TROUBLESHOOTING - If additional Rotor Blades are required or if Rotor Blade replace-

ment does not solve the your flying problem, visit www.interactivetoy.com.

There is a vast list of Troubleshooting tips for the BladeRunner HeliQuad on our website.

REPLACING DAMAGED ROTOR BLADES:

If you will be storing your BladeRunner HeliQuad for a longer period of time, remove the Batteries from the Controller. This will prolong

the operational life of the HeliQuad and the Batteries. It is a good idea to store the HeliQuad, Controller, Charger and USB Charging

Cable together so no components become misplaced or lost. Please respect the points listed below to extend the operational life of your

BladeRunner HeliQuad during storage.
1. Product may be damaged or performance may be adversely affected if your BladeRunner HeliQuad is not properly stored.

2. Never place any items on top of any components of the BladeRunner HeliQuad.

3. Always keep your BladeRunner HeliQuad in a cool dry place.

4. Keep BladeRunner HeliQuad away from pets and other household animals.

5. Do not rest your BladeRunner HeliQuad on any potential heat source such as electronic equipment or a radiator.
