I. Thrown takeoff
CAUTION: THIS FUNCTION WILL ACTIVATE THE MOTORS AND START TO SPIN THE PROPELLERS. EXTENSIVE
CAUTION MUST BE TAKEN AS SPINNING PROPELLERS CAN CAUSE SEVERE INJURIES. WEARING GLOVES IS A
MUST. NEVER THROW THE UAV TOWARD A PERSON OR AN ANIMAL.
DO NOT THROW THE UAV BEFORE THE MOTORS HAVE REACHED A REGULATED CONSTANT RPM.
TRY TO THROW THE UAV AS FLAT AS POSSIBLE, AVOIDING SPIN AND ERRATIC ROTATIONS.
This function enables you to takeoff without starting from the ground. This should be used in dusty environ-
ments, high grass, watery or snowy environments, or any other situations where taking off from the ground
is not viable.
Hold the UAV in one hand, making sure that your fingers are clear of the propellers, and engage the function
on the GCS with the other hand. Wait for the propellers to accelerate and reach the optimal continuous ro-
tation speed, which is indicated by a constant propeller sound; this should take a couple of seconds. Once
the propellers are spinning at the appropriate speed, you can throw the UAV in the air, preferably with an
upward movement, without any UAV rotation.
II. Turtle or Happy Dog mode
II. I. Turtle
If for any reason your Loki MK2 should arrive on the floor upside down, the Turtle function allows you to flip
it back to the correct position. A pop-up message will light up on your GCS when the UAV is inverted. As the
Loki MK2 understands its position, it will flip over in the most favorable direction.
II. II. Happy Dog
The Loki MK2 can be used as a high-power IR light generator; just land the UAV in the space you want to
lighten and engage the Happy Dog function. This function will turn the drone upside down and switch all
IR LED on full power. To exit, press the button again and it will flip back to normal position and recover the
previous LED settings.
This function can also be used to get your UAV out of a trapped situation. For example, partially locked un-
der an obstacle.
III. Toggle Front LED
IV. Toogle Bottom LED
This function will power the bottom LEDs to the preset brightness level set in the corresponding menu in
the GCS (see «ADVANCED SETTINGS USER MANUAL»). Toggle again to power off.
This function will power the front LEDs to the preset brightness level set in the corresponding menu in the
GCS (refer to “ADVANCED SETTINGS USER MANUAL”). Toggle again to power off.

TIONS NECESSARY TO AVOID ANY DIRECT IR BEAM CONTACT WITH YOUR EYES, SUCH AS IR BLOCKING
