IN CASE OF
What to do in case of:
● a technical issue.
● an emergency.
● a crash.
● sudden weather changes.
23.1 Failsafes
23.1.1 Fail-safe mechanisms
Fail-safe mechanisms activate whenever a technical issue occurs that reduces the safe
behavior of the X100. Most of these mechanisms also trigger a notification on your GCS,
describing the issue.
23.1.2 Handle a low battery warning before launch
Scenario:
The battery voltage is below 12.0 V. You cannot arm the X100; this is an automatic fail-safe
mechanism to avoid launching with a low battery level.
1 Abort the launch procedure and put the X100 in STANDBY mode.
2 Replace the battery with a full charged one.
3 Restart the X100 (ON mode).
4 Check the MPBat indicator in the flight instruments panel in Horizon. The value should be
12.0 V or higher to be able to arm the X100.
5 Continue with the launch procedure.
