5. Flying the drone
The top LEFT SWITCH "E" is the flying mode switch.
Full right = Loiter mode (GPS MODE)
Middle = Altitude Hold (a stable self-levelling mode for advanced users) All users
should learn to fly in this mode in the event of satellite loss.
Full left = POSition HOLD (GPS mode – slower braking for reduced pendulum effect)
Make sure that you have good space around you when using POS MODE as the
drone will take longer to stop and hold its position.
The main flying mode is "Loiter Mode" This is a GPS mode and is speed limited to 43kph. Do
not fly at full speed so as to avoid reel over-wind. Loiter mode also has a positive control
response and more direct drone braking.
POS HOLD can also be used. (Far ELFT position on switch E) This mode has been optimised
for BAIT LIFTING, as it has a controlled de-acceleration to assist in limiting the extent that a
pendulum might be exasperated. DO NOT push the right stick ALL the way forward whilst
flying out a bait, as the drone can achieve a high speed that may over-wind your reel.
Practice flying so that you can become familiar with the EX-1 flying speed.
In POS HOLD mode the drone will drift slightly after stick centering. This is to help reduce
the pendulum effect when lifting a bait. Make sure that you have good space around you
when using this mode. Do not fly at full speed in this mode. High speed of over 70kph can
