left or right will set a left or right roll angle of up to 45
the stick down will set a climb rate of up to 3.5 m/s. Moving the stick up will set
a sink rate of up to 3.5 m/s. Releasing the right stick at any point will return the
drone to a straight flight path at a constant altitude.
It is not possible to take-off in Assisted Manual mode. You may only switch to
Assisted Manual mode after completing the standard take-off procedure⁴⁹.
Caution: There is no clear indication during the take-off procedure
that the eBee RTK will change to Assisted Manual mode rather than
Circle Start Waypoint mode after the take-off transition altitude is
reached⁵⁰. For this reason we recommend that you do not turn on the
remote control unless you are ready to manually control the drone
right after take-off.
To perform a manual landing we recommend the following procedure:
1. The drone should always perform a linear landings into the wind. Face the
downwind direction and confirm that there are no obstacles in an area of at
least 100 m downwind and a width of 20 m in either direction from down-
wind.
2. Set the drone to an altitude of around 50 m from the landing altitude by
moving the right stick up or down.
3. Fly downwind until the drone is around 100 m away from the landing loca-
tion.
4. Turn the drone upwind and towards the landing location by moving the
right stick left or right.
5. Set the speed to a low value by moving the left stick down to around 25%
of its maximum value.
6. Bring the drone closer to the ground by controlling the sink rate with the
right stick. Keep the drone descending until it is around 5-10 m from the
ground.
