The vehicle can be controlled using the right side joystick (7). To activate joystick control, switch the flight
mode switch (1) to POSITION mode (UP). In this mode, the vehicle will fly in a straight line at its current
altitude until a joystick command is received.
Moving the joystick left or right will make the vehicle change direction.
Moving the joystick forward or backward controls the altitude of the vehicle. A forward (up) joystick
movement moves the nose of the vehicle down and decreases altitude. A backward (down) joystick
movement pulls the nose of the vehicle up and increases altitude.
If the vehicle loses connection to the DeltaQuad Controller while it is flying in POSITION mode, it will
automatically return home, regardless of the
NOTE: for inexperienced pilots, the joystick controls can seem counterintuitive. It is
recommended to practice joystick operation in close proximity while flying at sufficient altitude.
Changing altitude
While the vehicle is in POSITION or HOLD mode, the altitude can be changed by tapping on the ACTION
button in the FLY screen and selecting "change altitude". A vertical slider will appear on the right side of the
screen that allows you to select a new altitude. Once the correct altitude is selected, slide the "change
altitude" slider to confirm the altitude change command.
When the vehicle is following a mission path, it will always track the altitude as defined in the mission plan.
When resuming a mission the vehicle will immediately change the altitude to match the currently active
waypoint.
Resuming a mission
When the vehicle is in POSITION or HOLD mode, the mission can be resumed by moving the flight mode
switch to the MISSION position. Alternatively, the mission can be resumed by tapping on the ACTION button
