1. Wear the hand gesture controller. The larger section with chips should be on the hand back. The force touch pad should be on the palm.
  2. Adjust the two perf-boards and the rope to a comfortable position.
  3. Tighten the rope on the force touch pad side. Connect the battery. If the Arduino works, the LEDs on the Arduino will blink.

  4. Connect and turn on the power supply to the modified board. If the Arduino works, the LEDs on the Arduino will blink.
  5. Turn on the SYMA control board. The blue LED on the board will blink. At the same time, a sound, beep, can be heard.

  6. Turn on the drone. The LEDs on the drone should blink rapidly.
  7. Reset the two Arduinos. Fully calibrate the IMU by shaking the hand.
  8. Press the force touch pad and pitch hand up until hearing a beep. Then, continually press the force touch pad and pitch hand down until hearing another beep. The drone should already connect with the controller if the drone’s and the modified control board’s LEDs are not blinking.

  9. Control the drone by gestures.
