Circular geofence
If the aircraft flies too far away from home then the circular fence will be triggered. The map will be shaded red for any region that would
be considered to be too far away. The aircraft will repeatedly switch to Rally until the aircraft is back within the geofence. The radius
can be changed in the

High altitude geofence
If the aircraft flies to high above home then the high altitude fence will be triggered. The aircraft will repeatedly switch to Rally until the
aircraft is back within the geofence. The altitude can be changed in the

High wind during takeoff
This is activated by high winds, greater than 12 m/s, during takeoff. This indicates the aircraft is experiencing excessive winds and it is
unsafe to continue flight. The aircraft will automatically perform an emergency landing in place ( QLand ), and the messages dialog will
show “Failed to complete takeoff, excessive wind".
Caution: Emergency land will land vertically wherever the aircraft currently is, this may not be the same as where the aircraft
took off from.
Takeoff took too long
If the takeoff takes more than 45 seconds, the aircraft may consume too much VTOL battery capacity to safely continue the mission. It
may have enough to finish the takeoff, but may not have enough remaining capacity to land. The aircraft will automatically perform an
emergency landing in place ( QLand ), and the messages dialog will show “Failed to complete takeoff within time limit”
Caution: Emergency land will land vertically wherever the aircraft currently is, this may not be the same as where the aircraft
took off from.
Transition to forward flight failed
If the transition to forward flight takes more than 11 seconds the aircraft is not performing correctly. There may be a problem with the
main motor or propeller. The aircraft will automatically perform an emergency landing in place ( QLand ), and the messages dialog will
show “Transition failed, exceeded time limit"
Caution:
Emergency land will land vertically wherever the aircraft currently is, this may not be the same as where the aircraft
took off from.
Low airspeed
The aircraft has experienced unusually low airspeed while in forward flight and is at risk of stalling. The aircraft automatically beings a
transition to forward flight again, the VTOL motors will turn, the forward motor will go full throttle and the aircraft will maintain a level
attitude till the transition is complete. If this transition takes to long the transition failsafe can activate.
