Operation
Pre-flight Procedures
Visual inspection of BLK2FLY
•
Take off and landing zone:
•
It is recommended for take off and landing zone, to have at least 4 m
•
clear distance to any potential obstacles
Ensure a safe take off and landing area
•
Take off and landing zone on grass: The BLK2FLY is able to take off and
•
land on grass. However, the grass should not be higher than 5 cm above
the ground. This ensures that the rotor and obstacle avoidance operate
correctly.
Environmental and weather conditions:
•
Ensure the environmental and meteorological conditions are adequate
•
for BLK2FLY operation
Refer to
6.3.1 Meteorological Conditions
•
Checklist
Check if compass calibration is needed. Refer to
•
for details
Environmental and weather conditions allow BLK2FLY operation
•
Check for charged batteries
•
Ensure a safe take off and landing area
•
Check airspace information
•
Ensure fencing is set up and active if required
•
Ensure Return behaviour is defined as required. Refer to

Compass Calibration
Be sure to calibrate the compass before the first flight. After that, calibrate
the compass when the BLK2FLY Live app prompts to do so.
Take-off is prevented and pilot gets an information message (in flight
☞
screen) once compass calibration is required.
When and how to run compass calibration in general
When moving to new sites, a compass calibration is more likely to be
•
needed
Compass calibration shall be executed in area free of magnetic fields
•
Keep enough distance to metal structures, metal pipes, on top on con-
•
crete with rebar or any other place where magnetic interferences likely to
be present
User should not wear watches, or other objects which can distort natural
•
magnetic field. UAV should be able to get GNSS position
Apple iPad can create magnetic field distortions. Ensure the Apple iPad is
•
at sufficient distance while calibrating.
Follow this procedure to calibrate the compass of the BLK2FLY
