Instructions and Quick Start guide
Be aware that one of the batteries is already inside the drone, so if you only see one battery in the box, try sliding the camera on the underside of the drone to reveal the battery compartment underneath.
The primary features and functions listed below can be easily performed via the controller with the push of a button and/or the movement of a joystick. Some of these can also be performed via the app.
Pairing: This is easily done by pushing the left joystick up and down and is completed in moments. If you’re using the app, you’ll need to connect to the drone’s wi-fi signal, which will show as Snaptain-S5C-******
Calibrating the Gyros: Again, easily done by moving the left and right joysticks simultaneously. It’s a good idea to re-calibrate the gyros after every crash. This can also be done via the app.
One Key Take-Off and Landing: This worked very nicely; the will start and takeoff at the push of a button. It rose about four feet into the air and then lands gently when the button is pushed again. This is also available via the app.
Trimming: Worked well; trimming will be necessary as it will immediately start to drift in one direction or another (sometimes quite quickly.)
Photos and Videos: If you’re using a micro SD card to record your photos and video, you’ll find them in a Photo and Video folder, respectively, on the internal storage of your phone. The video is saved as a 1280×720 MP4 file, while the images are saved as 2048×1152 JPGs. The video was a little jerky in places but otherwise looked good, while the images appeared to be fine. This feature is accessible through the app; sometimes the view from the camera wouldn’t show, but otherwise it could take pictures and shoot video without too many problems.  Lastly, it’s worth noting that the camera cannot be moved.
Speed Switch: There are three speeds; by default, the drone will start in the slowest speed. If you’re operating the drone indoors (not recommended) then you shouldn’t need to change the speed, but if you’re outside, you’ll most likely need to increase the speed as the slightest breeze can blow it away from you. This can also be activated through the app.
Headless Mode: This allows the drone to move relative to you, rather than the direction it’s heading. For example, if the drone is facing to the left, you can push the right joystick down and the drone will move back toward you. It worked well and is also available via the app.
360° Flip: The drone performs a very quick flip forwards, backwards, to the left or to the right, depending on which way you push the directional joystick.
One Key Return: Like Headless Mode, this will move the drone back towards its starting point. This being the case, it’s important not to move if you intend to use this feature, as the drone will attempt to return to where you were standing when the drone first took off. This worked well, but needs to be used with caution to avoid having the drone head off in an unexpected direction.
Altitude Hold / Hover: This worked very well; releasing the joysticks will allow the drone to stop moving and hover at its current altitude. Unless it needs trimming, it does a very good job of hovering without too much drifting.
Emergency Stop: This will immediately stop the propellers and cause the drone to drop to the ground, and should only be used as a last resort! This is also available via the app.
The following features and functions can be performed exclusively through the app:
G-Sensor Mode: This allows you to control the drone’s flight by tilting your cell phone while in landscape mode.
VR Mode: If you have a VR headset, you can see exactly what the drone sees for a truly immersive experience.
Voice Control: This worked reasonably well; the available commands will show on the screen. The drone took off, landed and moved without any problems, but would not start shooting video via the voice control.
Hand Gestures: If the drone’s is 2-3 meters away and facing you, you can make hand gestures to take a photo or shoot video.
Trajectory Flight: This allows you to have the drone follow a path you draw on the screen. Due to space limitations where the drone was flown, this feature was not tested.
