Before levelling the horizon all other calibrations, except compass calibration, must have been completed.
The Level Horizon calibration is best performed indoors. It requires the vehicle to sit level based on the
VTOL arms. To level the vehicle based on the VTOL arms it is recommended to find a level surface (a table)
and place 4 objects of equal height, such as soda cans or soup tins, under the quadcopter motors. The foam
underside of the vehicle should be free from the table and the carbon VTOL arms should sit level
horizontally.
When the vehicle is sitting level, press OK to start the calibration. This will complete in about 20 seconds.
The vehicle should not be touched or moved during the calibration process. Then reboot the vehicle. If, for
any reason, the vehicle is moved during this calibration process then repeat the process from the beginning.
When purchasing a DeltaQuad you will be notified of relevant firmware upgrades for your vehicle via email.
The email will contain a link to the relevant firmware upgrade page and can contain specific instructions.
You should only perform firmware upgrades when instructed to do so by your supplier. Under no
circumstances should you reset your parameters to default.
If you are in need of assistance to perform the upgrade please contact support@verticaltechnologies.com
A firmware upgrade can only be performed using QGroundControl from a Windows or MacOS computer and
requires a standard micro-usb cable. It can not be performed from an Android or IOS device.
A firmware upgrade generally consists of one binary file and one parameter file. The binary file has a .px4
extension and the parameter file has a .params extension. You should download both files to your computer.
Make sure you can safely position your vehicle close to your computer and do not attach the flight battery.
Note: when handling the flight controller it is important not to put any cables or connectors under stress.
The cables on the right side can be pulled slightly towards to flight controller to provide more room to
rotate the unit.
To attach the USB cable to the DeltaQuad flight controller please follow these steps;
1. Carefully pull the flight controller from the velcro attachment, make sure no cables are put under stress.
2. Rotate the flight controller 90 degrees to expose the bottom of the flight controller as shown in the image
