USER GUIDE

Several additional advanced features for data logging and
telemetry are available. These features include:
o) Exporting flight data to Google Earth™ or Google Tracks™
p) Playing back data files with gauges and instruments
q) Displaying live telemetry data from the EagleEyes™ FPV
Station, either numerically, via Google Earth™, or on the
chart.
To access these features, check the “Show Advanced Telemetry
Page” checkbox on the “Eagle Eyes and Data Logging” tab in the
software. Click on the “File” and “Setup” menu items on the
advanced telemetry page for more information.
7.5 Advanced RTH Setup
Advanced RTH configuration is done on the “Advanced Safety Mode”
menu, shown below.
7.5.1 Home Altitude Mode
The Home RTH Altitude feature lets you set up two different RTH
altitudes, which can be useful if you need a higher RTH altitude for
part of the return home. To configure home altitude mode, you set
the altitude you want the model to reach when it is close to home (the inner altitude), and choose the distance
from home that will specify when to use
the inner altitude.
To configure dual RTH altitudes, follow
these steps:
1) First, select the desired mode by
changing the “Home RTH Altitude
Mode” on the Advanced Safety Mode
menu. The settings available are as
follows:
r) Disable: The second (inner) RTH altitude settings are ignored. This is the default.
s) Normal: When your model comes closer than the “Home Altitude Radius” set below, and RTH is active,
the model will descend or climb to the "Home RTH Altitude" specified below, and return home per your
settings.
Throt Off: (fixed wing only) This is the same as “Normal” mode above, except that the throttle
is turned off when the model is closer than the “Home Altitude Radius,” which would normally cause your
model to descend to the ground, using the stabilizer to keep the wings level. This feature is useful if your
model returns home, but you still cannot regain RC link. Note: if your model easily stalls with the motor off,
this may not be a good option for you!
2) Next, set the “Home RTH Altitude” item to the desired inner RTH altitude (the altitude that RTH will target
when closer than the distance radius below).
3) Set the “Home Altitude Radius” item to the desired distance from home at which the model will target the
"Home RTH Altitude" described above.
