The power supply is built in and users could connect the AC Power cord to the main AC socket directly. What’s more the AC input voltage is 100-240V so that the users could use charger all over the world and don’t need to worry about any damage caused by improper input voltage.
- Page 23 Terminal Voltage Control (TVC) The charger allows user to set the charge/discharge and voltage. Capacity Limit The charging capacity is always calculated as the charging current multiplied by time. if the charging capacity exceeds the limit, the process will be terminated automatically when you set the maximum value.
- Page 24 Charging During charge process, a specific quantity of electrical energy is fed into the battery. The charge quantity is calculated by multiplying charge current by charge time. The maximum permissible charge current varies depending on the battery type or its performance, and can be found in the information by the battery manufacturer.

Page 28: Payload/Bait Release System
Payload / Bait Release System Drop Loop A drop-loop is an essential part that has saved countless drones from failure. By utilising a drop- loop, the main line is kept far away from the drone’s props. We recommend using a long running drop loop of at least 60 - 80 cm with the bait hanging a further 3-10m below that. - Page 29 FailSafe For more information on the other flight modes that are available via the app please see the link to full Pixhawk4 manual. https://docs.px4.io/master/en/flight_ controller/pixhawk4_mini.html In both ATTI and GPS mode, it is recommended to wait for at least 9 GPS satellites before take-off to ensure that the home point is correctly registered for the Return Home function to operate.
