b) Switching on the transmitter
Caution, important!
The quadrocopter can be operated in skater mode or in para mode. In principle, the two modes differ only
in the orientation of the quadrocopter.
•
Para mode
In para mode, the forward orientation corresponds exactly to the direction of the pilot's figure. Therefore, the orienta
-
tion to the back corresponds to the back of the pilot figure.
•
Skater mode
In skater mode, the forward orientation corresponds to the left side of the pilot figure. Therefore, the orientation to
the back corresponds to the right side of the pilot figure.
Since the transmitter has to be adapted to the respective mode, a switch (see figure 1, no. 15) is provided on the
transmitter housing.
Important!
Set the skater mode/para mode switch to the desired position before turning on the transmitter.
Do not operate the switch when the quadrocopter is flying.
Hold down the push-button for the on/off function (see also
Figure 1, no. 10) for approximately 1 second.
The transmitter emits two short beeps and the two LEDs
on the LED display (see also Figure 1, no. 1) start to flash
slowly.
Then push the joystick for the pitch and yaw function (see
Figure 1, no. 13) all the way up. The transmitter beeps
once and the two LEDs flash faster.
Now move the joystick all the way down. The transmitter
emits another beep. When you move the joystick back to
the centre position, the LED indicator lights up steadily.
To turn off the transmitter, press and hold down the push
button for the on/off function. The transmitter beeps and
the LEDs go off. Then release the button.
If the power supply for the proper operation of the transmitter is no longer sufficient, the red LED indicator (see
Figure 3, no. 1) starts to flash slowly.
In this case, stop flying the quadrocopter immediately and insert a new set of batteries into the transmitter.
