Directional Lock

Directional Lock mode is a mode that makes it easy for beginners to fly.
In this mode the direction you and the Raven drone are facing when the Raven drone 

is launched will always be forward on the controls, no matter which way the Raven 

drone is facing.
This means that even if you can’t see which way the Raven drone is facing you will be 

able to bring the drone back towards yourself by pulling back on the Right Thumbstick 

(Pitch/Roll) (3).

To activate Directional Lock:
1.

 

After powering up the Raven drone and pairing with the controller 

 

    (see section ‘Launching your Raven drone’) ensure that you and the Raven 

    drone are facing the same direction.

2.

 

Press the Directional Lock Button (8) on the Remote Control and the lights 

    on  the  Raven  drone  will  flash  indicating  that  the  drone  is  now  in  Directional 

    Lock mode.
   It is important that you do not change the orientation position you are 

    standing  in  when  you  activate  Directional  Lock  as  this  will  affect  the  control 

    of the drone.

3.

 

You will now be able to fly the Raven drone in Directional Lock mode.

4.

 

To exit Directional Lock mode, push the Directional Lock Button (8) again 

    and the Raven drone lights will shine solid again.

Adjusting Directional Lock:

It is possible to re-adjust your position or angle, or recalibrate Directional Lock 

by landing the Raven drone in the position that you want to assign as forward, 

moving behind the Raven drone, facing the same direction as the drone,  

and then holding both Thumbsticks (2,3) in the bottom Left position.

The  drone  lights  will  flicker  fast 

until calibration is complete. 

 

Be sure to hold the Thumbsticks 

in this position until the calibration 

process is complete and the 

lights  return  to  flashing  at  their 

regular rate.
