Quantum Trinity F90+ User manual

It is saftey-relevant to strictly follow the Quick-Start-Guide
FLIGHT PLANNING
Weather conditions
• Wind ground: max. 9 m/s (17.5 kn) (see picture)
• Wind in flight: max. 12 m/s (23 kn)
• Temperature: -12 °C to 50 °C (10.4 °F to 122 °F)
• Do not y in rain or snow.
Be aware that there is no software restriction between
1500 m – 4000 m regarding the wind tolerance (ground).

UAV ASSEMBLY
Set up the laptop and open QBase Check
Set up the QBase modem and connect it to the Laptop Check
Set up the ADS-B receiver Check
Set up the iBase
• Micro SD-card is inserted
• Antenna center is exactly above the reference mark
• Not shaded by objects
• Stay away min. 5 meters
• Power bank is connected and powered
• iBase is recording (blue LED blinking)
Check
Turn on the RC Transmitter Check
Check the UAV for damages (e.g. surfaces, propeller) Check
Magnetometer Calibration (If required)
• Obligatory: ight location > 50 km away from the last ight location
• Calibration and take-off area is free of metal (parking decks, cars, metal structures) or
any devices causing electric or magnetic elds (power lines, generators, mobile phones)
Calibrated

Battery pack is connected (UAV will start automatically) Check
Take-off position
• Take-off from the UAV transportation box.
• Optional: Cover the ground with a canvas cover. Fix it with weights.

Obstacle clearance in reality
• No obstacle within a radius of 20 m around Home Waypoint
• Re-/transition, descent circle, flight paths: altitude 20 m higher than obstacles
Check
UAV heading
• Ensure the direction of the displayed UAV corresponds with the direction of the UAV on the ground
• Do not fly if the heading on the ground is not correct: critical deviation ≥ 10°

QUICK-START-GUIDE

Wind direction
• Re-/transition is set against the wind direction!
• Retransition with tailwind: per 1m/s tailwind ~ 20 meter deviation
• Windcheck in the immediate surrounding
• Do not take-off in a wind sheltered area (lee) as turbulances may occur

IMPORTANT MESSAGES
Aileron malfunction Come Home is automatically initiated. Wait for the UAV to Come Home.
Do not y again, contact your reseller.
Airspeed sensor
malfunction
No manual input necessary except for collision avoidance.
The UAV will return home and land automatically. The mission cannot be continued.
Battery critical No manual input necessary except for collision avoidance.
The UAV will return home and land automatically. The mission cannot be continued.
Battery low A warning 10 minutes before the UAV returns home due to battery capacity. Please select Come Home.
Hover time
exceeded
No manual input necessary except for collision avoidance. The UAV will land automatically.
 The flight cannot be continued.
Elevator malfunction Come Home is automatically initiated. In severe cases, an immediate retransition and landing is performed.
Do not y again, contact your reseller.
Link lost No manual input necessary.  Wait until link reconnects.  The UAV will perform the mission as planned in
the meantime or come back home and land automatically (depending on link-lost setting).
Motor temperature
too high
No manual input necessary except for collision avoidance. The UAV will land automatically.
 The flight cannot be continued.
Transition
airspeed too low
No manual input necessary except for collision avoidance.
The UAV will return home and land automatically.  The mission cannot be continued.
Wrong
direction
No manual input necessary except for collision avoidance. The UAV will automatically try to turn into the
transition cone to continue with the transition.  If this is not possible it will automatically return home and
land.
Wind speed No manual input necessary.  The mission is automatically continued.
Wind too strong No manual input necessary except for collision avoidance.
The UAV will return home and land automatically.  The mission cannot be continued.
