FLIGHT CONTROLLER MODULE INSTALLATION
FLIGHT CONTROLLER MODULE
1. The Autopilot module must be placed horizontally and as close as possible to the plane‘s CG
(Center of Gravity). The default direction is the arrow direction must be pointing towards the
nose of the plane (i.e. direction of flight). You can change the direction to four directions via
the GCS software, i.e direction forward, back, left, right (shown below) .
2. When installing the autopilot module please make use of the supplied damper mount.
Otherwise the vibrations will cause a large data inconsistencies which will adversely affect the
autopilot accuracy.
3. PANDA autopilot integrates a GPS module including a flat-GPS passive antenna. This is a
sensitive antenna for GPS signals, while false signals reflected from the ground is effectively
filtered out. Install the GPS unit horizontally.
4. Keep metal objects and other conductive materials such as carbon fibre away from the GPS
unit. Additionally no transmitting antenna should be around the GPS antenna. The
communication link antenna (FY-606) or your video transmitter should be kept as far away
from the GPS unit as possible.
5. Radio transmissions will increase the noise signals which lead to instability in the positioning
data. The higher the radio noise, the more difficult for the GPS to lock in position.
6. PANDA can integrate with either one of Feiyu Tech‘s two Data Radio modules, the FY-606
(2.4 Ghz) or the FY-602(433 mHz).
