FLYING OUTDOORS
HOW TO PREVENT FLY AWAYS
To prevent “y-away” situations (where drones seem to y away out of
control) it is important to rst test and practice within close range before
letting the drone y too far away.
Each drone is designed to land if the radio signal is lost. It is important
to know and test the range of your drone before ying. (But, this should
not be considered a landing procedure or normal ight practice.) We
recommend turning on and syncing the drone and walking away while
testing the engines. Keep walking and testing until it is obvious when
you reach the point where the signal is not controlling the drone. This will
be the control limit for the conditions in which you are ying. Distance
does vary somewhat based on environmental and weather conditions,
so testing the limit is advised. Fly in a range that is good for easy visual
operation of the drone.

Fly-aways are not covered by warranty as they are overwhelmingly
caused by pilot error.
TROUBLESHOOTING
POSSIBLE CAUSESYMPTOM POTENTIAL SOLUTION
Dronium Two
AP does not
respond
1. Communication between
controller and aircraft was
not synchronized during
set up
2. Battery power depleted
on aircraft, controller or
both.
1. To synchronize, turn on
aircraft rst, place it on level
ground, and then turn on
controller.
2. Charge aircraft and/or replace
batteries in controller.
Response to
control inputs
intermittent or
erratic
1. Controller battery power
nearly depleted.
1. Replace batteries in controller.
Dronium
Two AP will
not hover
or strafe
correctly
1. The aircraft was not
on level ground during
synchronization.
2. Trim settings are incorrect.
1. Re-synchronize aircraft and
controller.
2. Reset the trim buttons on
the controller and re-trim ight
controls.
* Allow 15 minutes to pass between full ights as this will give the motors a
chance to cool down. Failure to do so could wear out and shorten the life
of the motors.
