Addional Angle (Pilot) Mode Features:
POSITION HOLD AND SELF-LEVELING
The Q500 will automacally hold its posion (with a suitable GPS
signal/lock) and maintain a level atude when the right-hand sck is
centered.
WARNING: If you do not properly control the Q500 in Angle (Pilot) Mode
the aircra may crash or even ‘fly away’.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Crash damage and ‘fly aways’ are NOT covered under
warranty.
FLIGHT CONTROLS - ANGLE (PILOT) MODE
When the Flight Mode Selecon Switch is the middle posion the Q500
will be in Angle (also known as Pilot) Mode.
Angle (Pilot) Mode is the mode preferred
by experienced RC/drone pilots because
the Q500 will move in the direcon the
control sck is pushed relave to the
front/nose of the aircra. So if you push
the right-hand sck to the le the Q500
will bank toward the le side and move to
the le. This means if the front/nose of
the Q500 is poinng away from you it will
move to the le, but if the front/nose is
poinng at you the Q500 will move to the
right.
Addional Smart Mode Features:
*SMART CIRCLE
In most cases the Smart Circle will keep the Q500 from coming within
approximately 26 feet (8 meters) of you (as long as you posion yourself at
least 26 feet/8 meters behind the Q500.
GEO-FENCE
The geo-fence is a virtual ‘barrier’ that will keep the Q500 from traveling
farther than 300 feet (91 meters). And although this limit can be adjusted
using the USB interface/programmer and soware we strongly recommend
using the default limit at all mes.
WARNING: Smart Mode only works when the Q500 has a suitable GPS
signal/lock. If you take off in Smart Mode and the Q500 loses GPS
signal/lock it will switch to Angle (Pilot) Mode automacally. This is why
we strongly recommend learning to fly in Angle (Pilot) Mode as soon as
possible. Otherwise, if you lose GPS signal/lock and are not able to
properly control the Q500 in Angle (Pilot) Mode the aircra may crash or
even ‘fly away’.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Crash damage and ‘fly aways’ are NOT covered under
warranty.
