Heading Hold Mode
The default setting is NOT Heading hold Mode.
Drones generally have a front and rear indicated by LED lights or colored
propellers. By default, the users are required to tell the front and the rear of
the drone when flying. Under heading hold mode, the users can operate
the drone without worrying about the orientation (left is left and right is
right all the time, regardless of where your drone is pointing at). Heading
Hold Mode is designed for beginners and the users who fly the drone in
daylight or at a far distance or difficult to identify the drone orientation.
You are allowed to activate the heading hold mode function before taking
off or in flight.
Fly under heading hold mode, you’re required to ensure the drone front
direction aligned with your front direction, DO NOT change your direction
of your transmitter and keep it fly in front of you all the time.
(See below picture)
WARNING: DO NOT USE HEADING HOLD MODE BEFORE YOU ARE SURE
THAT THE DRONE'S FRONT IS YOUR FRONT. OTHERWISE,
IT MIGHT BE OUT OF CONTROL OR FLY AWAY.
