13. FPV Operation
a) General Information
The quadrocopter is serially equipped with a camera that transmits a video to a suitable Smartphone (not enclosed)
live by radio. Recording of pictures and control of the camera are possible by an app installed on the Smartphone.
Pictures or videos can be saved on the Smartphone and processed further from there. The live transmission permits
"FPV-operation" (FPV = First Person View).
Attention!
Pure FPV operation poses danger of accidents, since you may not see obstacles or not see them in time
due to the limited camera image. Therefore, FPV operation generally must be observed by a co-pilot who
can warn of dangers in time. It also requires a lot of practice to fly in FPV operation. Also observe specifi
-
cally during the learning phase that the chosen flight field is free of obstacles and far from people, animals,
buildings and streets.
For interference-free transmission of the video signals, no other transmitters must be present in the 2.4 GHz
transmission range of the model. The "Bluetooth
®
" function in the Smartphone must be deactivated.
Do not violate the privacy of others when recording pictures and videos. You must only make recordings for
your personal use. Publications of any kind may require consent of the owner or the persons shown in the
image. In any case, observe the laws of your country.
b) Loading the App
FPV operation requires that you first install a special app on your Smartphone. Only those costs that usually arise from
a download will be incurred for this. The app as such is free of charge.
Scan one of the following QR codes depending on your Smartphone's operating system (iOS or Android). Scanning
will automatically take you to the current version of the app. Alternatively, you can find the app "Q Pro-FPV" for the
operating system iOS in the "Apple Store" and in the "Google Play Store" for the operating system Android.
