Lost Procedure
Don’t panic! If your KiwiQuad is lost, follow the instructions below. It is
important to begin your search as soon as possible as the battery will
continue to deplete.
•
Do not switch off your headset or controller. These items can be of
assistance in your search.
•
Lower your throttle to minimum. Otherwise, when the controller
connection re-establishes, it could take-off unexpectedly.
•
Pulse your throttle up and down. This will create sound as the motors
pulse and may help you locate the position.
•
Look through the FPV Headset. Can you see any recognisable
surroundings? Does the picture become clearer when heading a specific
direction? Move towards the stronger signal.
•
Recall last flying location. On loss of signal, your KiwiQuad will shutdown
all motors and fall. This is a protection measure.
