FLIGHT COMMANDS
Activate/Deativate Motors
If you are going to fly on GPS Hold mode, the “GPS” switch must be up,
and the “RTH” switch down. When you start flying, the Return to Home
point is defined. Threrefore, only start your motors, after you verify on
the transmittter, that both transmittter and drone have acquired a
minimum of 6 satellites, for an accurate start position. In case of
communication problems, the drone enters Fail Safe mode, and
activates Return to Home automactly.
Activate/Deativate Follow Me
To use follow me, you must be flying on GPS Hold. The altitude is
mantained, the drone will rotate automactly to the transmitter, and it
should follow you, as you move the transmitter. Be careful, this drone
does not avoid collisions with objects on it´s way.
Activate/Deativate Headless Mode
By default, when you fly forward, the drone will go forward by its front.
On Headless mode, the drone moves itself always relatively to the
transmitter position. In other words, forward is to go away, to go right is
your right, to go left is your left. Even if you rotate the drone mid flight, it
will always answer your commands on the same form.
Drone Lights Mode
Hold the stick, and press the trim button.
This way you can alternate whitin the 3 light modes:
- Flashing (default), always on, and always off.
