Go-Home

Home-point: Before takeoff, current position of multi-rotor will be saved as home-point by MC automatically when

you start the motors for the first time after 6 or more GPS satellites are found (red light blinks once or no blinking)

for 10 seconds.

Note

1. Please make sure to record the home-point before takeoff, and clearly know where it is.

2. During go-home the nose direction of the aircraft is facing toward the home-point, the aircraft is

flying directly from the current position to the home-point.

3. You can regain the control during the aircraft is hovering 15 seconds.

The flowchart of failsafe and how to regain control

(2)Turn off the

TX (we assume

you want to

trigger failsafe)

(1) The aircraft

flies far away,

TX is on but the

signal is weak.

Attitude Mode: In Attitude Mode as

soon as you get signal you can

regain control.

GPS Mode: switch the TX mode

switch to ATTI, if the receiver is

connected, then you will regain

control.

Attitude Mode: (1) the aircraft will level its attitude

immediately (2) 3 seconds later, failsafe is triggered and

aircraft will start to go home. (3) If signal is regained during

(1) or (2), it will resume normal flight immediately.

GPS Mode: (1) the aircraft will slow down and hover. (2) if

the signal is restored within 3 seconds (TX and receiver

connected), the system will immediately return to normal

operation; does not enter failsafe. (3) if not reconnected

within 3sec, the system will enter failsafe, then even if the

signal is restored, the system will not exit failsafe.

We strongly recommend you DO NOT try this, because there are three

types of risk:

(1) You must be pretty clear whether the Home-point is OK for landing or

not. (You have to understand the definition of Home-point well and the

working process of failsafe)

(2) If there are tall buildings around, the aircraft may be obstructed on the

way.

(3) When GPS signal is bad or GPS is not working, failsafe will not work.

In this case, the behavior of the aircraft is the same as in

the above condition.

If you want the aircraft to Return Home, please do not turn

the TX back on within 3 seconds

*

, otherwise the aircraft

will exit failsafe mode immediately.

When you turn off the TX, use the following

method to regain control:

(1) Switch the TX switch to GPS.

(2) and then put throttle to the center

position(greater than 3sec after switching off,

important), you can now turn the TX back on.

(3) then you can switch the TX Control mode

switch to ATTI to regain control.

If you choose to turn off the TX,

you must be pretty sure that you

know how to regain control. Here

we offer a method, please read

carefully.

This section will demonstrate the working logic of failsafe and how to regain control.

The following description is effective only when:

1. The aircraft is in flight.

2. The GPS works normally and signal is good (≥6 satellite, the LED blinks a single

red light or no red light).

Note: if you start the motors, but do not push the throttle to take-off the aircraft, in this case it is very dangerous to turn

off the TX, because the aircraft will take off automatically, so do not try this.

What triggered failsafe

*

If signal lost for more than 3 seconds failsafe will be triggered, if signal regained within 3 seconds it will exit failsafe immediately.
