GPS Functionality of the 350 QX2 AP
Flight Guidelines and Warnings
To acquire a reliable GPS signal, it is important the 350 QX2 AP has a clear view
of the sky. Obstructions that can affect the aircraft’s ability to acquire an accept-
able signal include:
• Flying close to or around tall/big buildings
• Flying under dense vegetation
• Flying indoors or under a structure
If the GPS is unable to lock, turn the C-G01 camera off, allow the GPS to acquire,
and then power on the camera.
If you lose or cannot acquire a GPS lock and home position, the aircraft will not
have Stick Relativity, SAFE Circle, Position Hold or Return Home functions avail-
able.
It is not possible to use
Smart Mode
without having GPS enabled. If the
350 QX2 AP is initialized without GPS enabled, it will default to
Stability Mode.
The aircraft will still be capable of altitude command.
If you do not have a GPS signal, try maneuvering the 350 QX2 AP by steering
with forward elevator and rudder only.
CAUTION:
Do not attempt to fl y the 350 QX2 AP with GPS enabled while
indoors or in a location where the GPS signal is known to be poor, as
loss of signal could result in a crash.
GPS Functions
(
see the Binding section for turning GPS functions ON and OFF
)
With
GPS ON
• If the 350 QX2 AP took off with GPS lock and a home position set, when
Return Home mode is activated the quadcopter will fl y back to the start
position (maintaining altitude along the way), then reduce altitude to land.
• If the 350 QX2 AP should lose GPS when Return Home mode is activated,
it will land quickly using the barometric pressure sensor to maintain the
descent rate.
• If the 350 QX2 AP took off without GPS lock, but acquires a GPS signal
in fl ight, it will land slowly using GPS to hold its position and barometric
pressure sensor to maintain the descent rate when Return Home mode is
activated.
• If the 350 QX2 AP loses GPS during landing in Return Home mode, it will
increase the rate of descent and land quickly to avoid drift.
• If the 350 QX2 AP deviates too far from its intended GPS path when in
Return Home mode, it will descend using the barometric pressure sensor
to maintain the descent rate. This could happen if the fl ight control system
loses its orientation because of aggressive fl ight in 3 axis mode.
• Once the 350 QX2 AP has landed in Return Home mode, it will disarm the
motors.
With
GPS OFF
• If Return Home mode is activated, the 350 QX2 AP will level off and land
quickly using the barometric pressure sensor to maintain the descent rate.
• Once the 350 QX2 AP has landed in Return Home mode, it will disarm the
motors.
GPS Failure
Upon GPS failure, the 350 QX2 AP will respond according to the following condi-
tions:
Smart Mode:
(rapid Green fl ashing LED)
If the 350 QX2 AP is in this mode and the GPS fails, the quad will default to
Stability Mode.
The aircraft will still use the pressure sensor to maintain
altitude and control rate of descent. If GPS is reacquired, after 5–10 seconds
of reliable GPS signal the
Smart Mode
functions are returned to normal.
AP Mode:
(long Purple, two short Green fl ashing LED)
If the 350 QX2 AP is in this mode and the GPS fails, it will not switch
to
Smart Mode
and will not enter GPS hold, but will otherwise function
normally. If GPS is reacquired, after 5–10 seconds of reliable GPS signal
the
AP Mode
functions are returned to normal.
Stability Mode:
(long Blue, two short Green fl ashing LED)
If the 350 QX2 AP is in this mode and the GPS fails, it will not switch to
Smart Mode
and will not enter GPS hold, but will otherwise function
normally. If GPS is reacquired, after 5–10 seconds of reliable GPS signal the
Stability Mode
functions are returned to normal.
Loss of Transmitter Signal
If the transmitter signal is lost for any reason, the 350 QX2 AP will respond ac-
cording to the following conditions:
• If the motors are not turning, the 350 QX2 AP will disarm.
• If the motors are turning but the 350 QX2 AP is not fl ying, it will turn off the
motors and disarm.
• If the 350 QX2 AP is fl ying and has a good GPS lock with a home position
set, it will activate the Return Home function upon the loss of the transmitter
signal.
• If the compass is not connected or faulty, or if there is no GPS lock, the 350
QX2 AP will descend slowly upon the loss of the transmitter signal.
• If the pressure sensor is not working, the 350 QX2 AP will reduce power to
initiate a controlled descent upon the loss of the transmitter signal.
• Always keep aircraft in sight and under control.
• Always keep people and pets at least 35 feet (10 meters) away when the
battery is connected.
• Keep children out of the vicinity of this product at all times.
• Always use fully charged batteries.
• Always keep transmitter powered on while aircraft is powered.
• Always remove batteries before disassembly.
• Always keep moving parts clean.
• Always keep parts dry.
• Always let parts cool after use before touching.
• Always remove batteries after use.
• Never operate aircraft with damaged wiring.
• Never touch moving parts.
