12.2.2  LOW BATTERY RETURN TO HOME

If the Drone’s battery level is low, a ‘failsafe’ mechanism is triggered. 
When your Drone’s battery is low, we recommend quickly landing it 
or using the Return To Home function.
There are two warnings for low battery levels: 

1. 

When the rear indicator light is flashing red slowly, you will 
notice the battery icon displayed as   on the remote LCD 
screen. This will cause the remote control to beep. If your Drone 
is more than 100 metres away or more than 30 metres away in 
altitude from the take off location Home Point, it will return 
home automatically. If it is within the 100 metre distance you 
can terminate the Return to Home by simply pressing the   

button

 on your remote control.

2. 

When the rear indicator light is flashing red slowly, but the 
battery icon is displayed as   on the remote LCD screen, a 
steady beep sound will come from the remote control. If your 
Drone is more than 15 metres away it will Return to Home 
automatically. If it is within the 15 metre distance the Drone will 
automatically land and lock the motors.

WARNING:  DO NOT PRESS ANY KEY WHEN RETURN TO HOME IS 

INITIATED AS IT MAY CAUSE THE DRONE TO FLY AWAY.
