8.2 Pre-flight testing of the remote control
If you plan to use the remote control during a flight we recommend that you first
test it on the ground. Ensure that the eBee RTK is set to Full Manual mode⁴⁷ and
follow these steps:
1. Check that the left stick on the remote control is in the low position to pre-
vent the propeller from spinning.
2. Turn on the remote control.
3. Turn on the eBee RTK byconnecting the battery. Oncethe drone detects the
signal from the remote control it will change to one of the manual modes.
Caution: The motor of the eBee RTK is now controlled by the remote
control and will begin spinning if the left stick is pushed up. Always
keep the area around the propeller clear of obstacles and body parts
to prevent injury.
4. Move the right stick on the remote control to verify proper reception by the
drone and correct servo direction.
5. Turn off the remote control for take-off.
Note: If the remote control is switched on while it is performing pre-
flight checks the ailerons will not move when the checks are com-
pleted and the GPS/GLONASS signals are acquired.
For more information on using the remote control, refer to the original user man-
ual, available from the Knowledge Base within my.senseFly⁴⁸.
