Geomagnetism calibration

[Tanya]

I bought my son a fx-145 quadcopter for Xmas. We’ve calibrated the remote control but can’t get the copter to do it. Any advice would be great

Compass calibration? Usually it involves facing it out and moving the quad in a circle and then facing it down and moving it in another circle But individual drones may have extra steps.
GPS calibration on mine involves pressing the GPS button and waiting for it to acquire satellites.

have you got the wifi linked? on some quads you can calibrate manually using a combination of a button and a stick movement to get it in calibration mode

FX-145 doesn't have GPS or a compass (magnetometer)

I think the OP is saying she can't get the TX to bind/pair to the quad.

Correct. Just didn't want her getting confused by comments on GPS calibration. Tanya, on most quadcopters such as this, the standard procedure is to push both sticks down (towards you) and to the right. The lights on the quad will flash rapidly for a couple seconds, then go solid. At this point you should be able to arm your quad and fly. Not saying this is the exact procedure for yours, but it's worth a try

Or try simply pushing the left stick UP/DOWN. If it beeps, but doesn't respond, then pull both sticks down and out (opposite corners.)
