To allow multiple players to play at the same time, bind the drone at different timing for each player. Once all drones are calibrated , all player can start flying the drones at the same time.
Step 1: Ensure that all the drones are switched off , except for the one which is binding.

In summary, when a drone is being bind, all other drones should be power off or have already been bind.

Tips101
Tip1: The motor stall, the quadcopter flies off in a certain direction all by itself? How to calibrate your CX10w?
Solution : Press the button in top right when quad is resting on a flat surface to get it calibrated often through the flight rather then trying to trim it out with the trims, because it does seem to go out of trim often and start drifting by itself rather then sitting perfectly still as it does once trimmed nicely, then you can fly it with just the left control as it stays in one place really well indoors.
Tip 2: The quadcopter cannot turn fast enough . How to increase yaw rate?
Solution : Get this app from the app store - wififpv
Tip 3: How to use two mobile device to operate CX10 W?
Solution : Connect with with 2 phones .one to control while the other can watch. Both have video showing on screen, if both controls are shown on screen quad won't fly properly so make sure to only have the controls showing on the phone you are flying with.
Tip 4: The CX10W quadcopter lose signal in the air.
Solution : The control distance is up to 15 metres. If it is above 15 m, the quadcopter will lose signal. Be sure not to fly beyond 15 metres. As a gauge, 15 metres is around 3-4 storeys high.
For the CX10W TX, the control distance is 25 metres.

CX10w is the old model without the controller.
You have to scan the original QR code on the CX10w product box.
