LOCATION
In Home Mode the the Follow Me
feature will fly back the Q500 in a
straight line in the direcon of the
pilots’ current locaon, and
automacally land within 13-26 
(4-8m) of the pilot. This can be
very helpful for first-me pilots
who aren’t quite ready to land the
Q500 themselves. It can also be
helpful for pilots that lose orienta-
on during flight; simply acvate
Home Mode unl the Q500
automacally moves toward the
home posion, and once you’ve
confirmed orientaon switch back
to Angle (Pilot) Mode. And if the
Q500 ever loses the link with the
ST10 it will automacally enter Home Mode. When Home Mode is
acvated the Q500 will respond as follows:
