STEP3: Close course lock: There are two ways:
a) Slide MIX switch to OFF position to quit course lock; (Recommended way!)
b) Slide FMD switch to Manual Mode position, or close transmitter.
STEP4: Re-open course lock: If you want to re-open course lock after you quit this function, you should first slide FMD
switch to OFF position, and slide FMD switch to Atti. or GPS Atti. Mode position, then slide MIX switch to Course Lock
position to re-open course lock.
Home Lock Usage:
STEP1: Record home point: The home point mentioned here is the same home point of enhanced Fail-Safe. There are two
ways to record them: Manually and Automatically:
a) Automatically: Before takeoff, the current position of Mariner will be saved as home point by MC automatically
when you push the throttle stick for the first time after 6 or more GPS satellites have been found ( blinks once or
no blinking) for 8 seconds.
b) Manually: When 6 or more GPS satellites are found ( blinks once or no blinking), you can toggle the MIX switch
between Course Lock(ƶ) and Home Lock(2) quickly 3 to 5 times to record the current position of the Mariner as
the new home point. And LED will blink quickly if recording is successful.
STEP2: Open home lock: flip the MIX switch to the Home Lock position to fly in home lock when all the following
requirements are met:
a) Home point is recorded successfully;
b) 6 or more GPS satellites are found;
c) In GPS Atti. Mode;
d) Mariner is further than 10m away from the home point.
Now wherever the nose is pointing, the real flight forward direction is the same as the direction from the home point to
the Mariner, and LED will blink between yellow and green slowly to indicate the IOC mode of MC.
STEP3: Close home lock: There are three ways:
a) Flip the MIX switch to the OFF position to quit home lock; (Recommended way!)
b) Flip the FMD switch to Manual Mode position, or turn off the transmitter.
c) The Mariner will be in course lock by the current forward direction automatically when Mariner flies back into
10m range around home point, or Mariner is in Atti. Mode.
STEP4: Re-open home lock: If you want to turn on home lock after you quit this function, you should first flip the MIX
switch to the OFF position. When all 4 requirements in STEP2 are met, flip the MIX switch to the Home Lock position to
turn on home lock.
