c) Emergency shutdown
Press and hold button A on the remote control to shut the motors down immediately.
Use this function only in emergency situations. A crash from high altitude
can seriously injure animals and people. It can also damage the drone.
d) Calibrating the motor speeds
As a result of the manufacturing process, motors are never identical. There may be minute differences in their rotation,
despite receiving the same control signal. This difference is sufficient for the drone to drift in the direction of the slow-
est motor. A 6-axis gyro sensor regulates these fine differences. The sensor must be reset/calibrated before the first
flight as a minimum. In addition to reducing drifting, this also improves the ability to maintain flight altitude.
In the event of a collision between the drone and an object, the calibration may be lost or become invalid.
Repeat the calibration process.
Place the drone on a flat surface and hold the two joysticks on the
remote control left to bottom left or right to bottom right until the
status LEDs flash quickly. Wait and hold the control in this posi-
tion for a few seconds. Once the LEDs light up continuously, the
process is complete.
If the drone continues to drift, the surface was not completely flat.
Adjust manually by pressing the arrow buttons on the right-hand
side of the remote control. This is particularly necessary when
there is drift in the same direction.
e) Intelligent drone orientation (headless mode)
By activating intelligent drone orientation (headless mode), the flight chip on the drone converts the orientation of
the quadrocopter to the remote control. In this case, always keep the remote control pointing directly at the drone.
The directions of movement are then adjusted to the point of view of the pilot. For
example, a control command to the right in the flight direction (camera view) is
to the left from the view of the pilot. From the perspective of the pilot, the drone
actually moves to the right.
Activate and deactivate the mode by pressing the Y button on the remote control.
When active, the LEDs on the drone flash.
