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.
