5. GPS & Save Home Position 

 

After power on, Arkbird will start to search GPS satellite and save the first valid position as 

Home.   

During searching, the elevator will be up and any manipulation of radio stick is invalid

. If 

need to skip the searching, please push CH6 more than 75% and push CH1 to left or right side for 

1 second.   

Once skipped the searching, it 

CANNOT

 switch to RTH mode, 

RTH logo 

will flash

 but 

it is balance mode. 

 

 
6. Flight OSD Inte rface 

 

 

1. 

When Arkbird is auto piloting the plane

(RTH mode

Cruise flight), t

he lower right will 

display Roll, Pitch 

control Angle Value 

and Throttle Value

, Adjust Autopilot if these angles not 

appropriate. 

2. The idle current is 0.8A while turning off the throttle, if the readout is wrong, please enter 

the OSD menu and exit to reset the current value. 

3. Please reduce the motor vibration to keep the “vibration value” more than 65 (100 is the 

most ideal situation). 

4. Pay attention to GPS satellite quantity, less than 7 will result mistake positioning.
