Sometimes it is necessary to reinitialize the X100, e.g. when the airspeed sensor has been
reset. During a POWER CYCLE, the X100 performs the following actions:
Acquire a new GPS lock.
Check the elevons and put them in zero position.
Initialize the internal sensors (airspeed sensor, accelerometers, altitude pressure sensor,
gyros, ...) of the eBox.
Download the flight plan to your GCS (Horizon).

Hold down the CONTROL button until the ON LED has flashed once. The X100 starts a

The initialization of the X100 takes about 25 seconds. In its final steps the aircraft will
