Slowly raise the throttle. Once above half throttle your hoverbike Drone will take to
flight. This may happen rapidly so keep a safe distance.
Once your hoverbike Drone has ascended to around a meter or two slowly reduce the
throttle so that the hoverbike Drone hovers.
you can control your hoverbike Drone with the right hand transmitter stick, twist it
around by moving the left stick left or right (yaw) and move it up or down by moving
the left stick up and down (height).
to land, slowly lower the throttle stick until your drone is safely back on the ground.
flight
This procedure is the same for every flight:
please refer to ‘how controls work on page 13.
Do not move the hoverbike Drone from this position;
it should be left until the light on the Pixhawk flashes
green. this time is required for gpS satellites to be ac-
quired and for the home position to be logged, and the
flashing green indicates that the correct number of sat-
ellites are acquired. the hoverbike Drone will return to
this position if commanded by you or by radio failure to
return to launch (Rtl), so make sure it is not positioned
close to any thing that it may land on or fly into.
