Flight Check
|
Halo Drone
1. Check your Halo Drone for any broken pieces or missing parts before you fly.
2. Check that the Remote Controller, Flight Battery, and your mobile device are all fully charged.
3. Make sure the Arm Lock Clips are tightly locked and in place.
4. Make sure all four propellers are tightly secured and do not have any dings.
5. Make sure your camera has a Micro SD card in it.
6. Make sure the AV Cable isn’t loose so as not to risk it getting caught by a prop during flight.
7. Check that the Halo Drone App has successfully connected to the drone.
8. Check Camera gimbal is working properly and is calibrated to the horizon.
9. Check to see if motors start and stop normally.
10. Calibrate your Drone and Follow Module compass following the on-screen instructions.
11. Ensure you are NOT within a No-Fly Zone and that flight conditions are suitable.
12. Be sure to observe all local laws and regulations, and understand the risks.
It is solely your responsibility to comply with all flight regulations.
TAKE-OFF & LANDING
1. Be sure to keep at least 10 feet of distance between you and the drone when taking off or
landing.
2. Make sure you are connected to at least 9-10 satellites before taking off. Make sure that the
icon is not blinking before take off.
FOLLOW MODE
Before using any of the follow modes, be sure you are in an open area, or set the altitude setting
for your Halo Drone follow features to be higher than the surrounding objects to avoid crashes.
RETURN-TO-HOME
1. Always make sure you have enough GPS satelites linked up and that your ‘Home Point’
is correct on the map before you take off.
2. If your remote controller loses connection with the drone, the failsafe RTH feature will kick in.
If you have failed to set a proper altitude height for RTH, this may result in your drone crashing
into surrounding obstructions as it takes a straight line path back to the ‘Home Point’.
LOW BATTERY
1. If your Halo Drone’s battery level drops too low, it will automatically activate the Return-To-
Home feature to ensure a safe landing. If you keep flying it after this point and the battery level
becomes critically low, the drone will just automatically decend and land wherever it is currently
located.
2. While RTH is enabled, you still have control over the Halo Drone and can manuever it should
you need to in order to safely navigate it back home.
