Level 1 alarm:
The drone battery level
has reached 13.0 V. The remote
controller screen will prompt “LOW
BATTERY; Return Aircraft and Land”. The
front drone status indicators will flash a
pattern of 3 red lights. If low battery auto
Return-to-Home is turned on, the drone is
going to auto RTH after this low battery
warning.
Level 2 alarm:
The drone battery level has
reached 12.0 V. The battery icon on the
remote controller screen will flash. The
battery level is now below 10% and you
should plan to land the drone safely. The
remote controller screen will prompt
“AIRCRAFT BATTERY LEVEL CRITICAL;
Land Aircraft NOW”.
After 10 seconds, the drone will initiate
an in-place auto-landing to protect the
drone and battery. The front aircraft
status indicators are going to flash red
constantly.
To overwrite the Auto-Landing, switch the drone to ATTI mode to regain control of the
drone. If the pilot continues to fly the drone below 12 V there is a risk that the battery
will not be able to maintain flight and the drone will crash.
⚠
During the flight, it is important to constantly monitor the battery level as flying in
the conditions like strong wind and rapid movements and heavy load can deplete the
battery more rapidly.
⚠
It is dangerous to continue flying the drone below 12 V. This could result in damage
to the battery and the risk of the drone crashing.
Aircraft Antenna
The antennas of the drone can be oriented either upwards or downwards to maximize
reception in different situations. The SplashDrone 4 has an effective range of over 5
km. Due to the way radio frequency travel, when flying 0.5m above the water, the
transmission range reduces to 2.8 km. For the drone floating on the water surface, the
transmission range reduces to 500m.
Generally, upward-pointing antennas improve reception when the drone is floating or
flying close to the water surface. Orienting the antennas downwards maximizes range
for higher altitude flights. Adjust the antenna
s’
orientation to maximize range for your
flight plan.
