POSSIBLE ACTION
Check the antenna orientation.
Try to shorten the distance to the UAV by walking
towards it.
Before take-off:
• Analyze the flight situation and plan the
routes to fly.
• Based on this assessment, select an
appropriate Link Loss Procedure for every
single flight.
• Always make sure that there will be no
obstacles in between the UAV and its home
position if Link Loss Procedure
or
Straight
selected.
The Intel® Falcon™ 8+ UAS features two fully inde-
pendent data link connections.
In case one link is disturbed, there is always a sec-
ond independent link on a different channel in the
2.4 GHz band.
In case that both data links are lost, the UAV auto-
matically activates one of the three Link Loss Pro-
cedures you are forced to select before the start.
As soon as the link is re-established you can take
control again, and continue the flight.
All Link Loss Procedures always go into a con-
trolled descend.
Check the antenna orientation.
Try to shorten the distance to the UAV by walking
towards it.
The Intel® Falcon™ 8+ UAV will activate the Link
Loss Procedure because of the lost data link con-
nection. As no GPS signal can be received, it is
impossible to locate the home position and a
Direct Landing
will drift with the wind in such a situation.
