Ignis Operations Manual
Drone Amplified
Return Altitude:
What altitude above the takeoff location the drone will ascend to when it
executes a return procedure. There's a checkbox in this setting to show more options,
which will be described later.
Critical Battery Procedure:
What the drone should do when its battery gets low. Options
are "Warning", which does nothing; "Land", which lands in place; and "Return. Land if
battery crosses Emergency Threshold", which makes the drone automatically return to
launch.
Critical Battery Threshold:
The battery percentage at which the Critical battery procedure
will be executed. Can be any value from 5% to 25%
Emergency Battery threshold:
The battery percentage at which the drone will land
immediately. Can be any value from 3% to 10%.
Procedure for lost RC connection while not on a waypoint mission:
The procedure the
drone should execute if it loses radio link (e.g. stops hearing the position of the sticks)
while not on a waypoint mission. "Hold position" makes the drone hover in place.
"Return" makes the drone return to the takeoff point. "Land" makes the drone auto land.
Touch the checkbox to adjust the timeout for this option.
Lost RC Timeout:
If the drone is not executing a waypoint mission, how many seconds it
should wait for the radio link to be regained before executing the above procedure.
Procedure for lost app connection while on a waypoint mission:
The procedure the
drone should execute if it loses radio link or the app disconnects from the radio while
the drone is flying a waypoint mission. "Continue mission" makes the drone continue
flying its planned mission even with loss of radio link. "Hold position" makes the drone
stop and hover in place. "Return" makes the drone automatically return to launch. "Land"
makes the drone automatically land in place. Touch the checkbox to adjust the timeout
for this option.
Lost app connection timeout:
If the drone is executing a waypoint mission and stops
receiving messages from the app, this is how long it should wait before executing the
above procedure.
Max Flight Altitude:
Limits how high above the takeoff location the drone is allowed to fly.
Drag this all the way to the right to disable it.
Max Flight Radius:
Limits how far horizontally from the takeoff location the drone is
allowed to fly. Drag this all the way to the right to disable it.
