2.1. Aircraft mode
Main modes contain Manual mode, ALTHOLD mode, GPS mode, RTL mode, LAND
mode, AUTO mode and GUIDED mode.
Manual mode: the control is flexible, and the stance and height are controlled by the
operator. This is better performed by experienced user.
ALTHOLD mode: in this mode, the flight height is controlled with throttle. The current
height is locked at the Throttle position of 40%~60%. In the state, the flight height is
automated determined. The user just needs to focus on the tilting, Roll and course at
the vertical direction. This operation is simple.
GPS mode: in this mode, the Throttle controls the flight height, and the current height is
locked at the Throttle positions of 40%~60%. The aircraft is fixed based on the GPS
signal. After the user operates the rocker to return it to the middle, the aircraft remains
the same position at the horizontal direction, and the height is kept in the vertical
directions.
RTL mode: the RTL and LAND state can be realized only with reliable GPS signal.
When the current height of aircraft is lower than 15 meters, the aircraft will make a
return voyage and land on the take-off point after automatic ascending for 15 meters; if
the current height of aircraft is higher than 15 meters, the aircraft will remain at the
current height and make a return voyage.
LAND mode: When the mode is triggered, the aircraft will be landed right here
according to the current position.
Note:
1. In the GPS mode, make sure that the GPS signal is successfully located and locked
before the aircraft is unlocked, or else, the unlocking is impossible in this mode. In the
flying process, make sure that the GPS signal is successfully located and locked, or
else, it is impossible to switch to the GPS mode.
2. If any phenomenon such as weak, abnormal, interrupted or fault GPS signal and so
on appeared in the GPS mode during the flying process, please switch to the STAB
mode timely.
3. In GPS mode, the automatic switch will be performed according to the current GPS
signal; if the GPS signal is poor, the flight control will automatically switch to
