Remote Controls Explained
1. Di Pole Antennas
a. Antennas allow for radio communication
between the remote and the aircraft.
b. In typical operations, the antennas should be
unfolded to approximately a 45 Degree angle.
Each antennas should be twisted towards the
outside edge of the remote.
c. The radio signals do not come from the tip of the
antennas, rather the signals radiate from the
facade of the antenna.
2. Sprayer Relay
a. Upward Toggle Position = Sprayer On
b. Downward Toggle Position = Sprayer Off
3. Not in Use.
4. Left Joystick (Controls elevation and yaw or rotation)
a. Pressing the left stick forward will cause the
aircraft to elevate or ascend
b. Pressing the left stick down will cause the aircraft
to descend.
i. Note: Never fly the aircraft straight down.
c. Pressing the left stick to the left, will cause
counter clockwise rotation on the aircraft.
d. Pressing the left stick to the right, will cause a
clockwise rotation on the aircraft.
5. Not in Use.
6. Power Button
a. Depressing this button, and holding it for 3 seconds it will turn the remote on.
b. Depressing and holding the button while the remote is on, will turn the remote off.
7. Flight Control Modes
a. ABC Buttons = Loiter or GPS Mode
i. Loiter mode or GPS mode is the default flight control mode. This control mode assists
the pilot to maintain altitude and straight line flight by utilizing GPS positioning. When the
pilot releases the sticks, the aircraft will hover in place.
b. DEF= Landing mode
i. Landing Mode will cause the aircraft to descend straight down and land. This particular
flight mode should not be used for regular landing.
ii. This flight mode will cause the aircraft to descend rapidly in the case of an emergency.
iii. The pilot can still “nudge” the drone by using pitch and roll, while the aircraft is landing.
