New 10ch Radio
–
the new long-range radio is supplied with sand covers over gimbals and a protective cover on
the face plate switches to improve the overall weather resistance. Smaller push button and toggle switches have
been used to prevent damage. This new radio provides a full UAV data link for all flight info, but also allows for
the accelerometer and Gyro calibration without the need of plugging the system into a PC.
9.
Video stream
–
The EX-1 equipped standard with a digital camera which has a video transmission of over 1500M.
Drone legal distance is set to 500M, so the live video is easily visible on your phone. Camera settings like
brightness, Contrast and saturation can be adjusted from the APP. Recordings of bait drops can also be made on
the phone.
10.
SONAR
–
The optional SONAR sensor will provide precise altitude control and prevent the drone from passing a
minimum set altitude level. This is useful for lure and bait trolling where the drone is pulled down due to the
resistance of the lure in the water.
11.
Radio batteries
–
2 x Li-Ion 18560 batts are required for the radio which give in excess of 20 hours radio on time.
12.
New servo release
–
a new water-proof servo is standard.
13.
Landing on water
–
the Ex-1 can land and take off from water. Rough water will impact the ability of the craft to
take-off, as waves will interfere with the prop lift. Extreme care and after salt cleaning is required with salt
exposure. Metal parts in the motors will cor
rode and reduce the drone’s life if not treated properly. Intentional
landing on water is not recommend for everyday use. If the craft flips over in water, loss of radio signal is likely so
recovery of craft could be difficult.
14.
Follow-Me mode
- In this mode, the drone will follow the location of the remote\phone.
15.
Boat Landing mode
–
this feature allows the drone to land (RTL) at the location of the pilot and not at the take-off
point. This is very useful when using the drone on a boat which has drifted away from the original take-off co-
ordinates.
16.
New Safety features
a.
Voltage monitoring
. The battery voltage is displayed on the phone device for easy battery level checking.
Also, the craft will not arm\start motors if it detects that the battery is not at a safe level for flight. This is
a user adjustable parameter
for advanced users
via the phone APP.
b.
Low Batt Return
to Launch
. This has improved safety as the computer will return the craft to launch, but
the pilot cannot inadvertently force the craft to continue flying. The low battery level is user adjustable
for Advanced users via Phone APP.
c.
RTL speed
–
RTL speed has been increased to get the drone off the water as soon as possible.
d.
Anti-pendulum feature
–
(POS.HOLD), has more controlled de-acceleration to assist in limiting the
degree to which a pendulum motion can occur with the bait. This allows for shorter leaders to be used
with safety.
e.
APP display and voice.
Visual and voice messages are broadcast to keep the pilot informed about all
aspects of the flight. The system will warn you by voice and display that the battery is low, geofence
breach or when Magnetic interference is detected.
f.
RC Feel
–
The sticks have a reduced sensitivity around middle to allow beginners an easy experience.
g.
GPS
- The New advanced GPS has been re-located to the highest point of the craft for best satellite
reception and maximum separation from other electronic parts in the craft to improve reliability and
precise landings.
h.
Magnetic compensation
–
the motors are a bad source of magnetic interference. The new FC control
algorithm allows that the motors’ interference are ignored thereby reducing compass issues.
i.
Landing detect
–
The new landing detect feature will shut off the motors as soon as the drone detects a
landing. Motors will also be shut off if it detects a crash.
j.
Distance and Altitude Geofence
–
RTL is activated if the geofence is breached for either distance or
altitude. (Adjustable for advanced users)
k.
Flight time safety
–
advanced users can modify the voltage protection to enhance fly-time. This
parameter should be modified with caution to avoid total power loss.
