MikroKopter OktoXL, Instruction Manual

Page: 47 / 74

If a WayPoint or POI is set, another window opens up so that the set WayPoints and POI can be changed afterwards.
Each WayPoint can be changed individually and if multiple POI are set each WayPoint can be set as a different viewing
direction to the POI.
Are all WayPoints / POI set, those can be transferred to the ARF-MikroKopter .
The ARF-MikroKopter needs to be switched on and it must have a connection via the Bluetooth-Set.
Transfer the WayPoints / POI by a „Click“ on the upward pointed red arrow.
For each transferred WayPoint / POI the ARF-MikroKopter will confirm it with a „beep“.
Are the WayPoints / POI tranferred to the copter you can start the copter.
To start the WayPoint flight proceed as follows:
•
All switches at the transmitter should be „OFF“.
•
Start ARF-MikroKopter and hover on a position.
•
On the transmitter activate the function „Hold Height“.
•
On the transmitter activate the function „PositionHold“.
The ARF-MikroKopter will now hold a fixed position in the air.
•
On the transmitter activate the function „CareFree“.
(Here the camera mounts point into the set direction(s)).
•
On the transmitter change the switch for “LANC-Ctrl + WP-Trigger” to middle position.
(This is the automatic that the camera will trigger during a waypoint fly.)
•
On the transmitter activate the function „ComingHome“.
By switching the switch to the function „ComingHome“ the copter automatically start to the first WayPoint. After reaching
that point and with the set waiting time the flight continues to the next WayPoint.
Has been a POI set as the view direction, the copter will align to that POI by flying to the next WayPoint. Was there no
new view direction set for the next WayPoint the current alignment will be maintained.
When the ARF-MikroKopter reaches the last WayPoint, the copter will stop there.
To get the ARF-MikroKopter back to the starting point all functions like (Hold Height, CareFree, ComingHome) need to be
deactivated to manually fly back the copter.
If you want to fly the same WayPoints again you must land the copter and switch OFF the motors. After a restart of the
motors you can proceed from the beginning.
Transferred WayPoints are not stored in the ARF-MikroKopter. As soon as the power supply has been
disconnected the transferred WayPoints are deleted.
A transfer of the WayPoints to the ARF-MikroKopter is also possible during the flight. In that way you can
transfer new asigned WayPoints during the flight. Up to 100 WayPoints can be transferred at the same
time.
As long as there is a connection to the Bluetooth-Set (range is limited) the telemetry data as well as the
current position of the ARF-MikroKopter will be displayed in the „OSD“.
