If you have successfully synced your VA-2140 to your controller as explained on page 4 you are now ready
to fly. Before beginning to fly your drone you should familiarize yourself with how to start and stop the
rotors, how to use your take off and auto land feature and how the controls work. please carefully read and
familiarize yourself with various control features explained in the next few pages. Once again as a beginner
pilot you should learn how to control your drone in a large open field or park on a day with zero or very
light wind. Do not try to fly your VA-2140 too high until you become a more experienced pilot.
NOW YOU ARE READY TO FLY!
UNDERSTANDING THE ALTITUDE LOCK
The VA-2140 has a unique Altitude Lock function. With the help of air pressure sensor you can control,
your VA-2140 more stable than ever. The sensor locks in the altitude of the drone while allowing the user
to adjust the directional control without having to hold the throttle.
After starting the drone, fly upwards to a safe height. Once at a safe height, let go of the throttle control,
your VA-2140 should lock in the altitude and allow the user to focus on getting used to the directional
controls.
NOTE: The altitude sensor does have some tolerance based on atmospheric conditions and could have a
slight variation in altitude.
