11. Information for First Take-Off

a) Hover Flight

For a simpler and consistent explanation of steering, classic terminology is used here as well. This comes

from flight language and is widely used.

Directional descriptions are always to be interpreted from the perspective of a "virtual" pilot in the model.

The two green rotors are considered direction indicators. They mean "front". The explanations are all based

on configuration of the remote control to mode II.

Hovering denotes a flight status in which the quadrocopter neither rises nor falls so that the upwards directed uplift

force is equal to the downwards directed weight.
Push the throttle lever forward to increase the motor speed and lift up the quadrocopter. Pulling the throttle lever back

causes the quadrocopter to drop. Try to find a position for the throttle lever (approx. middle position) in which the

altitude is maintained.

Figure 7

During flight close above the ground and during take-off, turbulence and air flow can be experienced which

may affect the quadrocopter. A quicker response to the controlling motions and slight swerving of the quad-

rocopter forwards, backwards or to the side may result from this. This so-called ground effect is no longer

present starting at a fight height of about 50 cm.

Due to outer influences and the low take-off weight, maintaining this altitude may not always be entirely

possible. However, this is normal for models of this size and build.
