Autopilot – User's manual
Autonomous flight mode
In autonomous mode, the autopilot controls the model flight alone,
maintaining the right direction and altitude, as well as preventing too
rapid model banking, which could cause loss of control (framing the wing,
corkscrew,
In autonomous mode, the autopilot is flying to the point specified by the
position of the throttle (gas channel modulation). Also the distance and
the course displayed on the OSD are always relative to the currently
selected destination (base, waypoint or point of circulation).
Gas at a minimum: AUTO - back to the starting point.
Gas in the middle: WP n - flight to the route number 'n'.
Gas to maximum: (*) - circulation over the current GPS point.

Banking limit
In order to maintain control over the model it is necessary to determine
the maximum (and safe) allowed model banking during maneuvers in
autonomous mode. Make the settings in the OSD Autopilot-> Banking
Limit
Figure 9 Maximum banking of the model in autonomous flight
Too small value of the maximum banking increase the turn radius, or may
even prevent it from turning in strong wind. Too large values can cause
problems with the stability of the model in the air can cause the loss of
altitude during the turn, and cause significant deviation (delay) of the
course provided by the GPS in relation to the real course of the model, so
the model when turning to the base and starts "poking" flying to the
base.
NOTE: For models with a large agility (large aileron deflections) or with
set lower stabilization force it may be necessary to adjust the lower limit
of the banking angles.
