4.3 Remote Controller and Flight Operations
The Remote Controller is specially designed for convenient remote
flight controls with 2 command sticks for aerial maneuvers in different
directions, including Pitch, Roll, Yaw and Vertical (ascent and descent).
The Smart Control Switch on the top left of the remote controller front
panel allows pilots to conveniently activate the safety features – IOC
(middle) or Go Home (down). Do not apply the IOC or Go Home
controls when taking off.
The Flight Mode Switch on the top right of the remote controller front
panel allows pilots to switch between different flight modes – GPS or
ATTI mode. See
Table 2-5
on page 10 for details.
NOTE:
Do not fly in GPS mode when less than 6 satellite signals are
received. In this case, the aircraft will not be able to take off.
