Flight
For the best signal connection:
• maintain a direct line of sight between the controller and X2
• for close range high altitude flight - point the controller cover
(broad side) toward X2
• max range flight - point the controller cover (broad side) toward
X2 while keeping the controller as far away from your body
as possible. Bringing the controller too close to your body will
impact wireless performance.
NOTE:
S
ignal strength and maximum control range may be aected when flying in areas with electromagnetic
interference. As signal strength decreases, users may experience a lower quality video feed or a delay in their controls.
