Setting the flight mode
There are three flight modes for manual flight: [Std (Speed)], [Vel (Velocity)], and [Alt (Altitude)].
You can select the desired flight mode easily with the flight mode switch on the remote controller.
[Flight mode switch 1] is locked to the [Std (Speed)] mode. The obstacle brake, Vision Positioning, and On Course
functions are enabled so that you can fly the aircraft with high safety and stability. You can adjust the horizontal speed of
the aircraft by adjusting the tilt of the control sticks on the remote controller. The aircraft will hover when you release the
control sticks to return them to the central position.
You can assign the [Vel (Velocity)] or [Alt (Altitude)] mode to [Flight mode switch 2] or [Flight mode switch 3] by following
the steps below.
Tap [Start flight] on the "Airpeak Flight" App Home page.

You can assign the following two modes to the flight mode switch.
[Vel (Velocity)]: In this mode, you can adjust the horizontal speed of the aircraft by adjusting the tilt of the control
sticks on the remote controller. The aircraft will hover when you release the control sticks to return them to the
central position.
[Alt (Altitude)]: In this mode, the flight altitude is maintained. The obstacle brake and Vision Positioning functions
are disabled. The aircraft position is not automatically maintained and the aircraft is easily drifted by the wind, so
skillful stick operations are required to control the aircraft. You can adjust the tilt angle of the aircraft by adjusting
the tilt of the control sticks on the remote controller.
Make advanced settings for each flight mode if necessary.
