Addional Angle (Pilot) Mode Features:
POSITION HOLD AND SELF-LEVELING
The Q500 will automacally hold its posion (with a suitable GPS
signal/lock) and maintain a level atude when the right-hand sck 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 Selecon Switch is the middle posion 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 direcon the
control sck is pushed relave to the
front/nose of the aircra. So if you push
the right-hand sck 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 poinng away from you it will
move to the le, but if the front/nose is
poinng at you the Q500 will move to the
right.
Addional 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 posion 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 soware 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 automacally. 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.
