  • Page 10: Low Voltage Alert

    LOW VOLTAGE ALERT The Low Voltage Alert is trigged when the battery has less than 2 minutes of flight time left. When the LVA is triggered, the Drone should be landed as soon as possible to prevent an unexpected loss in power. If the Drone loses power completely, the Drone will hard-land which can damage the Drone and its components.

SMART ORIENTATION MODE HOLD HERE TO LOCK GPS DELTA DRONE GPS QUADCOPTER Power Button Lanyard Attachment Speaker Gimbal Dial Battery Indicator Flight Mode Switch Return to Home Battery Compartment The Transmitter features a number of different modes to control the Drone.
  • Page 12 Position 2 GPS Position Hold. GPS Position Hold does not change the way the Drone is oriented. It simply locks the position of the aircraft in place – in a hover. The altitude is fixed when the Throttle is at 50%. It will only increase or decrease in altitude when the Throttle is pushed repectively to the 70% or 30% position.
  • Page 13 If the Pilot holds full Right Roll, the Drone will fly in a circle, clockwise around the Pilot (although the circle’s radius may tend to grow slightly with each orbit due to “lag”) Also, remember that GPS is only accurate to around 10 metres, so close fly- bys of the Take-off Location should be avoided.
  • Page 14 Left Stick The Left Stick is known as the Throttle. This controls the Drone’s Elevation and Yaw. Elevation To engage the Throttle and control the Drone’s elevation and power, the Left Stick uses a North/South movement. North to ascend and South to descend.
  • Page 15 [WARNING] Unless using SOM, take special note when changing the Drone’s Yaw (heading) as this will affect how the Drone reacts when using the Right Stick. Right Stick The Right Stick is also known as the Elevator/Aileron. This controls the Pitch and Roll of the Drone. Pitch Roll The Elevator/Aileron controls the forwards and backwards (Pitch)

  • Page 16: Gimbal Dial

    GIMBAL DIAL The left side of the Transmitter features a Gimbal Control Dial. [Important] The Gimbal is an optional accessory, purchased separately (KBA15008) The Gimbal Dial only functions when a Gimbal is attached and connected to the Drone. See Gimbal User Guide. When connected, the Gimbal Dial allows the Pilot to control the tilt of the attached camera.

  • Page 17: Gyro Calibration

    GYRO CALIBRATION The Drone may need its Gyroscope to be re-calibrated if it has become misaligned after a flight or error. This is usually most beneficial when the Drone is starting to fly strangely or is behaving erratically. To reset the Gyro: Place the Delta Drone on flat, stable ground and disconnect the battery.

  • Page 18: Battery

    BATTERY It is imperative that only a Kaiser Baas Delta Drone Battery is used inside the Delta Drone. DO NOT use any third-party or unknown accessories or batteries. Always ensure your Delta Drone battery is charged before flight. CHARGING Connect the Delta Drone charger to the wall using the supplied power cable.
  • Page 19 Charge Time The Delta Drone battery should take approximately 3 hours to charge. Battery Life To ensure the longevity of your Delta Drone battery, never run the battery too low as this will impact the battery health and future flight time. Your Delta Drone battery should have a life of over 400 cycles, provided proper charging and maintenance is employed.

  • Page 20: Battery Safety Warnings

    BATTERY SAFETY WARNINGS DO NOT disassemble the battery. DO NOT short-circuit the battery. DO NOT ever poke or puncture the battery with any blunt or sharp implement [WARNING] There is a high risk of it igniting! DO NOT ever leave the battery near an open flame or heat source. DO NOT immerse the battery in water, unless performing the discard process DO NOT charge the battery in direct sunlight.

  • Page 21: Rotor Blades

    ROTOR BLADES It is important that only Kaiser Baas Delta Drone Rotor Blades are fitted to the Delta Drone. Never use any third party accessories or tools. The Delta Drone has two types of Rotor Blade. The first has a Silver Nut and the second features a Black Nut. These colours are to signify which motor each Rotor Blade should be fitted to.
  • Page 22 Refer to the icon on the Rotor Blade to determine which direction to tighten the blade in. Rotor Blades should be tightened by hand only. [WARNING] Never use the Rotor Blade Removal Tool to tighten the blades. The Blades are self-tightening and do not require much force to install.

  • Page 23: Rotor Guards

    Rotor Blade Warning Never use Rotor Blades with any signs of damage or wear and tear. This includes chips, scratches and cracks. Damaged Rotor Blades can cause the Drone to fail in-flight and may result in damage to persons or property. ALWAYS ENSURE that the correct Rotor Blade is matched to the correct motor, using the nut colour as a guide.

    Step 4. Attach the Safety Line through the allocated points to add another level of protection and structural stability to the Drone. PRE-FLIGHT AND FLIGHT PLANNING Please consult the Pre-Flight Checklist before EVERY flight. At a minimum: • Ensure that you are at least 5.5kms from any airfield and you are adhering to any regulations and laws laid out by your local aviation authority.

  • Page 28 You are strongly encouraged to wait for GPS Lock before take-off. Failure to lock satellites will prevent Mode 2 and Mode 3 from being able to be used and will also prohibit the Drone from determining a Take-off Location. This may result in the loss of your Drone, should it venture out of Visual-Line-of-Sight (VLOS).

  • Page 29: Flight Conditions

    FLIGHT CONDITIONS Always follow legislation set by local authorities on the rules and regulations surrounding where you are permitted to operate your Drone. Never fly your Drone in adverse weather conditions including rain, snow, fog or winds exceeding 10 knots. Never fly your Drone near large crowds or above unwilling spectators.
