Range of your Gravit
Your Gravit is equipped with a full range high-quality 2.4GHz
transmitter system and you should not experience any range
issues. In case that you are flying in an unobstructed area with
no interferences around (which we STRONGLY advise), you
should have a range of at least 500 m.
This is far more than you would normally fly your Gravit away
and is almost beyond the line of sight for a quadrocopter of
this size.
PLEASE NOTE:
For the sake of safety, the Gravit is limited to
a maximum height of 50 meters and a maximum horizontal
range of 150 meters ex works. Those limitations are made
possible by the powerful Geo-Fencing feature of the Gravit
GPS. Those limits can be changed (increased or decreased)
with a software available for your Gravit. Please read more
about the Geo-Fencing feature and the software in the appro-
priate „Software“ chapters of this manual.
Flight Time
The standard flight time with the provided battery will be
around 10 to 12 minutes, depending on the version of the
Gravit you have bought. The Gravit GPS Vision #220720 is
the lightest version with the longest flight time, the Gravit GPS
FPV #220722 is the heaviest version with the shortest flight
time (but the best functionality). The Gravit GPS Vision Pro
#220721 is in between the two versions.
Please note that the flight time also depends on many other
factors, like environmental conditions (wind) and flying speed
and style.
If you want to increase your flight time, check out the high-
capacity tuning LiPo that we are offering especially designed
for your Gravit GPS. This LiPo has a capacity of 4400 mAh,
which will give you extra 4-6 minutes of flight, depending on
your Gravit version and flying style.
The tuning LiPo will give you a flight time of awesome 14-18
minutes.
The order no. of the tuning LiPo is #430060, you can buy it
from your LRP-retailer.
Flight speed
When you first fly your Gravit, you may note that the flight
speed seems rather slow. This is because the maximum flight
speed was set to 4m/s ex work. The reason for this rather
slow flight speed is that the Gravit GPS is PRIMARILY a qua-
drocopter for aerial photography.
And when shooting video, the slow speed GREATLY contri-
butes to the good quality of the video footage. However, you
may increase the speed of your Gravit, which makes it really
fast and agile. You can change this setting using the configu-
ration software freely available for the quadrocopter. Please
read more about this feature in the chapter „Software“ of this
manual.
Where and how to fly
Whenever you fly with your Gravit, please bear in mind that
you are not allowed to fly everywhere. Always fly according to
the legal requirements valid in the area/country you are flying.
We also STRONGLY advise NOT to fly in crowded or obst-
ructed areas or near people or animals.
Always fly reasonably and respectfully and according to your
piloting skill and you will get the most fun out of your hobby!
When using your camera for taking photos and shooting video,
also bear in mind that you are not allowed to use a camera
everywhere. In addition, other people might feel disturbed, so
always ask for permission before you start to film when people
are around.
When performing the compass calibration, make sure you
are not near any metal objects or any other potential inter-
ferrences.
