Aircraft Compass Calibration
Two steps of compass calibration:
When the aircraft's front and rear lights flash light green alternatively, hold the aircraft upright and
rotate it 360 degrees along the centeral axis for about 3 circles. The aircraft front and rear light
will change from flashing light green alternatively to flashing green alternatively when complete.
Aircraft Initialization Detection
After signal connection, the aircraft enters into initialization detection procedure, with front and rear lights
flashing red, light green and green alternatively.Make sure that the aircraft is set on a flat and still surface
for the initializtion detection. The Aircraft initialization detection takes about 8 seconds. Once front lights
and the rear light glow light green and flash alternatively, initialization detection is done; the aircraft enters
into compass calibration.
1. Aircraft compass calibration should be done for every flight. That is to say, if changing new battery or
the battery is reinstalled, compass calibration should be done again.
2. Compass calibration should be performed after successful aircraft initialization detection.
!● The gyroscope calibration has been done by factory default. Gyroscope calibration is no
need to be performed unless the aircraft can not exit the aircraft initialization detection
procedure while the aircraft initialization detection is finished.
● Please make sure to set the aircraft on horizontal surface when performing calibration,
failure to do this will effect the flight.
Model
Step 1 Horizontal calibration
Attention: Make sure that the aircraft is set on a flat and still surface for the initialization
detection. The Aircraft initialization detection takes about 8 seconds. Once front
lights and the rear light glow light green and flash alternatively, initialization
detection is done; the aircraft enters into compass calibration.
!
Gyroscope Calibration
Set the aircraft on horizontal surface; push down both of the control sticks to the lower left corner
(indicated as below photo). Once the front and rear lights are both green and flashing rapidly, it means
that gyroscope is under calibration status. When the lights turn solid, calibration is succeeded.
