8. change the rhythm of blinking patterns If you want to end the flight or it needs to replace the battery operate the aileron joystick to right for more than 3 seconds then the flight controller would enter into the dormant state Unlock remote control instruction diagram throttle to minimum aileron to right the other channel keeps still lasts for more than 3 seconds and lock 11 Check the motor positive and negative if the motor positive and negative is different from the program then exchange any two motor plugs of the corresponding ESC if the direction is right you can install the propellers and debug 12 Propeller installation debugging please according to the corresponding flight mode install the posstive and negative propeller as the motor installation diagram on the user manual the face which has words should be upward push the throttle slightly to rotate the motor and see whether each propeller has lift force if not recheck it and grab the aircrafe must grab tightly and be careful push slightly the throttle slowly shake the aircraft to see whether the aircraft is the block of your shaking if not but help you to shake that means the installation may be wrong please recheck according to the attached diagram If you feel the resistance still exists you can slightly operate each rudder to see if the controller is reverse if the direction is reverse you should set the channel reverse switch Please observe if the motor and pro
9. ers and barometer is affected from weather temperature pressure etc The barometer can be covered with thick foam double sided tape to eliminate the effects of wind Ensure to calibrate the magnetic sensor before you turn on the CF function rough calibration will affect the effect of flying After magnetic sensor calibration it need to verify the effect Put the aircraft on the ground turn on CF function unlock and slowly refuel and rock lifting and aileron observe if the aircraft reactive direction away the ground is the same with the unlock state at least test 4 directions it had better check the 45 degree direction if you ensure all the direction is accurate you can have the flight test now Note CF mode flight angle error will increase under high speed rotating when there are great lifting and aileron motion angle error will also increase Therefore great rudder flight or 3D mode is not recommended to turn on the CF function If you want to get the aircraft to stay on a specified location range in the air you need to open GPS switch to help the location lock if you want the FPV automatic return function you must also install the GPS option 16 PTZ connection and adjustment if the motor channel is less than or equal to 6 then the channel 7 and channel 8 would be automatically converted to 2 axis PTZ stability output the channel 7 M6 connect to pitch servo the channel 8 M7 connect to the rolling servo the compensation ratio a
