Only Premium version is equipped with the Dropping Box. 4 Flight Mode ProDrone Byrd supports the following three modes 1. P-ModePositioning Mode When the GPS signal is good, the GPS module is used to position;

When the GPS signal is not good enough or is lost, it will turn to the visual and acoustic positioning;

When both GPS positioning and the visual and acoustic positioning do not work, only the attitude stabilization is provided. 2. F-ModeCourse Lock Mode In recording the flight direction, its forward direction is that of the aircraft head. In flight, the flight direction and the forward direction have no relationship with the change of that of the head. You need not care about the direction of the head and you can conveniently control the flight. This mode relies on GPS data, so please use it when GPS signal is good. 3. A-ModeAttitude Mode GPS positioning and the visual and acoustic positioning are not used and only the attitude stabilization is provided. The switch of flight mode on the remote controller could be used to switch the mode of the aircraft. Please read the switch of flight mode for more details. RTH Mode ProDrone Byrd has the function of returning to home automatically. If the home point is recorded successfully before the flight and when the remote controller and the aircraft loss connection, the aircraft would return to the home point automatically and land on the ground. The following three conditions would cause the returning: returning to home instantly, returning to home in low battery and returning to base when the aircraft is out of touch. 1. Home Point 5 Home point refers to the point at which the aircraft has been unlocked for the first time successfully, when it is in Mode P and the GPS signal is good. Home point is only effective for the flight at this time. 2. RTH Mechanism When this mechanism is started, the red LED indicator light at the head of the aircraft keep on and the blue LED indicator light at the end keep on. At this moment, the aircraft will rise or descend to the pre-set height (if the current height is lower than the pre-set height, the aircraft will rise to the pre-set height; if it is lower, and the aircraft will descend to the pre-set height). And it will fly to the point above the home point and hover for five seconds and then it will slowly land to the ground. In returning to home, the aircraft could not keep away from barriers automatically. Please change the set of returning height according to actual conditions to ensure the flight security. Please connect the parameter adjustment software of the flight control system to set the returning height. 3. RTH Instantly During the flight, click the Return to home button in the remote controller or the Return to home icon in the APP interface, the aircraft will return to home automatically. (Click Return to Home Instantly with the Remote Controller and Return to Home Instantly with the APP) 4. RTH in Low Battery There are two mechanisms in this condition, including forewarning for the low battery and returning to home in serious low battery. Forewarning for Low Battery When the electric quantity is less than 30%, the forewarning for the low battery will be triggered. 6 And APP will alarm the warning tone to suggest you to return to home as soon as possible. RTH in Severe Low Battery When the electric quantity is less than 20%, the battery is serious low and the aircraft will return to home mandatorily. 5. RTH in Lose Control In normal conditions, the GPS signal is good, the compass works normally and the aircraft could record the home point successfully. If the signal between the remote controller and the aircraft is interrupted, the aircraft will stay hovering. If the signal interruption lasts for over three seconds, the aircraft will return to home automatically. In returning, if the signal is back to normal, the returning will be stopped automatically and you can operate the aircraft again. When the GPS signal is not good enough or there is no GPS signal, the aircraft could not return. Follow Me This intelligent tracking mode is also called Follow Me Mode. When the aircraft is in Mode P and when the GPS signal is good, press the icon mode and will follow you (your mobile device) to fly at the height of 5 meters. the aircraft will be in the intelligent tracking The moving speed of the mobile device at the ground should not be over 15m/s. Or, the aircraft is unable to follow you (your mobile device). Since the height of tracking could not be changed, the aircraft might run into barriers in its tracking. Therefore, it is suggested to operate this tracking function in an open and broad ground. 7 Indicators of Aircraft Status The flight status of the ProDrone Byrd could be judged from the two groups of LED indicator lights at the head and the end of the aircraft. Their places are shown in the following picture. The two groups of LED indicator lights show the current status of the flight control system through different groups of colors and flickers. See the following table for more details. Vision Positioning System This positioning system consists of the visible light camera and the ultrasonic module. The former is used to obtain the position information of the flight to provide reference for the horizontal direction of the aircraft. And the latter could judge the current flight height to provide reference for the height from the ground to realize the flight at a certain height. This system is adaptable to the environment in which the height is lower than 6 meters, where there is no GPS signal or the GPS signal is not good enough. It could be especially used for indoor flight. The precision of the visual and acoustic system is prone to be affected by the illumination 8 intensity and the surface texture of articles. And the ultrasonic could not measure the distance in certain damping materials. If both vision and ultrasonic do not work, the flight mode will be turned into the Attitude mode automatically. Therefore, please notice the following conditions in flight:

The normal flight height of this system ranges from 0.2m to 6m. Please stay in this range when the aircraft is used indoor;

The illumination condition is 10 lux100000 lux;

Within the required range of the illumination conditions, all textures could be used to position the flight except pure colors (such as pure black, pure red, pure white and pure green);

Be cautious on the surface where there is intensive reflect lights or inverted images;

The flight speed should not be too fast and the highest speed should be no more than 8m/s. The maximum flight inclination should not be more than 30. The range of flight temperature is -10-55. The flight altitude should not be more than 4000 meters. In Mode P and when the GPS signal is lost or not good enough, the system will turn to the visual and acoustic positioning mode and no manual operation is needed. This system is only open to ProDrone Byrd Advanced/Premium version. Stowage Dropping ProDrone Byrd could be loaded with loads less than 500g (not including the gimbal and the camera) to eject objects from a long distance. Before the ejection, the buttons C1 and C2 should be customized to choose the steering gear control in the APP setting interface (see Pxx for more details). The objects to be ejected are to be put into the container carrier and the container is inserted into the steering gear hole. Operate the aircraft to the place above the ejection point and press C1 or C2 button to let the container break away from the aircraft. The ejection is finished. 9 This system is only open to ProDrone Byrd Premium version. 10 Remote Controller The remote controller belongs to the advanced wireless communication system of automatic frequency jump.

Environment Do not fly in sever whether such as rain, thunder, high wind, snow, heavy fog, deep cold, the sand and dust weather. Do not fly between the high buildings. In this condition, the signal would be shielded, so the GPS is unable to locate the aircraft. Chose an open ground where there is no high buildings around to fly. Stay in the sight in flight and stay away from barriers, peoples and waters. Do not fly in places where there are communication base stations of high-tension cable or launch towers to avoid the interference of the signals from the remote controller. When the aircraft is flying above 4000 meters, the motor and the propellers could not work normally because of environmental factors. And the flight performance of the aircraft would be seriously influenced, so be cautious. Do not fly in the regions which are limited according to related laws and regulations. 2. Attentions Do not fly when there is interference of other same frequency wireless signals nearby. Do not answer the telephone or make telephone calls in the flight. Keep close attention to the display of the APP interface to secure the flight. Return to base and land as soon as possible when receiving the signal of the low electric quantity alarm;

The aircraft will land by themselves when receiving the signal of the serious low electric quantity alarm. The user could control the aircraft to fall down to safe places;

Turn off the motive power source first and then do other operations after the flight is landed. Do not stop the electric motor arbitrarily in non-emergency conditions. This is because the falling down of the aircraft will injure others. The propeller is very dangerous for it is in high speed revolution in the flight. The aviator should keep safety distance with the air craft to avoid being injured. Pre-Check Check whether each spare part is in good condition. If there is any crack or damage, please stop 30 the flight. Check whether the electricity quantities of the battery and the remote controller are full enough to support the flight. Make sure the engine arm and the foot stool are in place, and the propeller has been fixedly installed. Check whether the connection between the remote controller and the aircraft is normal. Check whether all firmware versions are the latest. And check whether the APP and the remote controller are connected normally. Check whether the electric motor and the gimbal are working normally after it is electrified. Make sure that the SD card has been inserted into the camera. Accelerator Calibration When the aircraft leaves the factory, the accelerometer has already been calibrated. It is suggested to calibrate it again before the first flight to ensure the flight security according to the following steps. Visit www.prodrone-tech.com to download and install the Byrd Parameter adjustment software of the aircraft on the PC end.
