Intelligent Orientation Control (IOC) :
Forward Direction -> Mariner will fly along this direction when you push the elevator stick.
Usually, the forward direction of Mariner is the same as the nose direction. By using Intelligent Orientation Control (IOC),
wherever the nose points, the forward direction has nothing to do with nose direction:
z In course lock flying, the forward direction is the same as a recorded nose direction. See the following figures (Mode 2):
z In home lock flying, the forward direction is the same as the direction from home point to Mariner. See the following
figures (Mode 2):
IOC Switch: MIX (0 - OFF, ƶ – Course Lock, 2–Home Lock)
Course Lock Usage:
STEP1: Record forward direction: There are two ways: Manually; Automatically:
a) Automatically: MC will record the current nose direction as forward direction at 30th second after you power on
the multi-rotor. And LED will blink quickly if recording is successful.
b) Manually: You can toggle MIX switch between OFF(0) and Course Lock(ƶ) position quickly 3 to 5times to record
current nose direction as new forward direction at any time after you power on multi-rotor 30 seconds. And
LED will blink quickly if recording is successful.
STEP2: Open course lock: After record the forward direction successfully, if MC is in Atti. or GPS Atti. Mode, then you can
slide MIX switch to Course Lock position to fly in course lock. Now wherever the nose points, the real flight forward
direction is the same as the recorded forward direction, and LED will blink slowly to indicate the IOC mode.
