Troubleshooting
SMART Brick is not reacting to the drone or ruins.
Ensure the SMART Brick is fully powered and positioned close enough to the embedded SMART Tags within the set.
The wall is not collapsing when the berry hits the target.
Check the wall construction to ensure the trigger piece is correctly aligned and not obstructed by extra bricks.
Drone rotors are stiff or not tilting smoothly.
Ensure that the hinge pieces are snapped firmly into place without excessive pressure which can cause friction.
Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To begin, assemble the ruins and the drone using the included instruction manual, ensuring that all SMART Tags are correctly placed within the specified bricks. The set is compatible with other SMART Play components; simply bring your separately purchased SMART Brick near the tagged pieces to trigger the audio-visual feedback. For care, keep the pieces away from moisture and direct heat. If the bricks become dusty, use a dry, soft brush to clean them, avoiding harsh chemicals that may degrade the plastic or the embedded SMART Tags.
