TX
- This LED is illuminated solid when the transmitter is turned on and the transmitter
batteries have enough voltage to safely fly. This LED will flash and the transmitter
will beep when the transmitter battery voltage reaches 4.5V. If this occurs during
flight, land the Archon and replace the transmitter batteries.
LVC
- When the Archon is powered on and the transmitter is on and properly
linked to the Archon, this LED will be solid as long as the Archon battery voltage
is above 7.5V. The LED will flash and the transmitter will continuously emit a series
of beeps when the Archon battery voltage falls below 7.5V. If flying in altitude
mode, the Archon will begin the auto-land feature in 3 seconds after LVC (Low
Voltage Cutoff) occurs. If flying in GPS mode the Archon will initiate the RTH
(Return-to-Home) function which will cause it to fly back to the home point at 8
meters in altitude and in a direct line of flight at which point the Archon will auto-
land.
NOTE:
To cancel the RTH function when initiated by a low voltage cutoff
condition, move the flight control switch to
ALTITUDE HOLD
. The Archon will stop
its flight back to the point and immediately descend straight down from its current
position for landing.
PREPARING FOR FLIGHT
NOTE:
Do not try to fly at this time. You must calibrate the Archon before your
first flight.
Powering the Archon
1.
Turn on the transmitter by
pressing the power button.
The TX and LVC LEDs will
i l l u m i n a t e a n d t h e
transmitter will emit a
continuous series of beeps
until the Archon is powered.
2.
Connect a charged battery
to the Archon. The transmitter
will stop beeping when it
detects the radio connection
to the Archon. If the
transmitter continues to beep
then the Archon may not be
linked to the transmitter. See
LINKING THE TRANSMITTER
.
3.
Place the Archon in an
open area free of any
people or obstacles.
