WARNING

* If the drone will not hover in one place it is likely the compass calibration process will need to be 
redone. See instruction later in the manual.

Practice 3

Same as Practice 2, but once you are hovering try flying forward, backwards and side to side. You 
can also yaw left and right.

If you need to, you can let go of the right joystick and it will automatically self centre bringing the 
drone into a hover.

Land and DIS-ARM.

Practice 4

Practice flight in manual stabilised mode

Before ARMING, move the right inside switch down from GPS flight mode to the manual stabilised 
mode. In stabilised mode, the throttle response is quicker and the drone will drift with the wind.

Repeat the practice 3 flight but this time you are in the manual stabilised mode.

The manual stabilised mode gives you total control over the drone as the GPS (fly by wire) inputs 
are not used. You may use the manual stabilised mode if you need to take control of the drone and

manually fly or land it. Always check the throttle is set at 50% before switching to manual stabilised
mode to ensure the drone maintains a stable hover.

Practice 5

In GPS mode - Take off and fly up to 30 metres.
Fly forward 50 to 100 metres

Pull the release switch towards you to (pretend) release
Centre both joysticks (Drone will hover)

Check the throttle is centred – if not then the RTL will not automatically land
Pull the RTL switch down towards you and then return to the up position.

The drone should automatically begin its return journey back to you.
It should then stop over you and after a short delay begin it’s descent to land

Once it has landed DISARM.

What could possibly go wrong!

The drone does not fly back to you.

Check to see both joysticks are centred

If this happens try flicking the RTL switch towards you again.

Or manually fly the drone back to you by pulling the right joystick down. You may 
need to add in some left or right to fly in the correct direction if the drone has 

yawed.

The drone will not automatically descend

The likely cause is the throttle was not correctly centred.

Centre the throttle (check and recheck)

Switch from GPS flight mode to manual stabilised mode and back to GPS mode

This resets everything.

Fly forward 30 metres

Pull the RTL switch towards you and then return to the up position.

The drone should automatically begin its return journey back to you.
