4.11 USING YOUR 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+ are facing when the
Raven+ is launched will always be forward on the controls, no matter
which way the Raven+ is facing.
This means that even if you can’t see which way the Raven+ is facing you
will be able to bring the drone back towards yourself by pulling back on
the Right Thumbstick (Pitch/Roll).
TO ACTIVATE DIRECTIONAL LOCK:
1.
After powering up the Raven+ and pairing with the controller (see
section ‘Flying your Raven+’) ensure that you and the Raven+ are
facing the same direction.
2.
Press the Directional Lock Button on the Remote Control
(Refer to
Fig 2.2.2 on page 8 - number 8)
and the lights on the Raven+ 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+ in Directional Lock mode.
4.
To exit Directional Lock mode, push the Directional Lock Button
(Refer
to Fig 2.2.2 on page 8 - number 8)
again and the Raven+ 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+ in the position that you want to assign as
forward, moving behind the Raven+, facing the same direction as the drone,
and then holding both Thumbsticks in the bottom Left position.
(Refer
to 4.11.1)
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.
