Assisted Flight
Altitude hold and loiter modes allow the autopilot to regulate Iris’ flight
behavior, providing cruise-control flying. Assisted flight makes it easy
to capture aerial video sequences with simplified control and automatic
positioning.
Altitude holding
Altitude hold mode (ALT) maintains Iris at a consistent altitude while
allowing manual control of yaw, pitch, and roll. Use throttle to adjust the
altitude while flying in ALT.
To switch to altitude hold from stabilize mode
1
Hover Iris in STB with throttle at mid-stick.
2
Switch into ALT.
3
Control yaw, roll, and pitch normally.
4
Use the throttle stick to make adjustments to the altitude.
5
Bring throttle to mid-stick before switching out of ALT.
Altitude hold is supported for takeoff and landing.
