Loss of the data link connec-
tion between UAV and CTR
Check the antenna orientation.
Try to shorten the distance to the UAV by walking
towards it.
Before take-off:
• Analyze the flight situation and plan the
routes to fly.
• Based on this assessment, select an
appropriate Link Loss Procedure for every
single flight.
• Always make sure that there will be no
obstacles in between the UAV and its home
position if Link Loss Procedure ComeHome
Straight
or ComeHome High, has been
selected.
The Intel® Falcon™ 8+ UAS features two fully inde-
pendent data link connections.
In case one link is disturbed, there is always a sec-
ond independent link on a different channel in the
2.4 GHz band.
In case that both data links are lost, the UAV auto-
matically activates one of the three Link Loss Pro-
cedures you are forced to select before the start.
As soon as the link is re-established you can take
control again, and continue the flight.
All Link Loss Procedures always go into a con-
trolled descend.
Simultaneous loss of GPS
reception, and data link con-
nection, between UAV and
CTR
Check the antenna orientation.
Try to shorten the distance to the UAV by walking
towards it.
The Intel® Falcon™ 8+ UAV will activate the Link
Loss Procedure because of the lost data link con-
nection. As no GPS signal can be received, it is
impossible to locate the home position and a
Direct Landing will be performed. The UAV
will drift with the wind in such a situation.
