4.3 Return-to-home(Rth)

There are three types of RTH: One-key RTH, Low Battery RTH, and Failsafe
RTH. When taking off, and GPS has locked more than 6 satellites, the
aircraft will mark take off point as home point. If there is no GPS signal and
drone is forced to take-off, Whenever GPS locks more than 6 satellites, it will
record that point as home position.

RTH-Process

1. Record "Home Point"

2. Trigger return to home conditions

3. Adjust the direction of the head

4. Climb to the return altitude set in APP
(1) Regardless of the current height of the aircraft, if the aircraft is
within 5 meters of the horizontal distance from home point, it will land;
(2) When the horizontal distance is greater than 5 meters, the aircraft
will rise to the set altitude and then return.

5. Search for the drone apron during the landing process (This feature
must be turned on in app before taking off and or landing)

One-key RTH

APP one-Key RTH / remote control one-Key RTH

Low Battery RTH

1. The aircraft will automatically Return to home according to its own
power calculations and the distance from the Home Point.

2. Aircraft will land automatically at the same point upon low battery
RTH activation, If there is no GPS signal or weak GPS signals

3.When taking off, if it is forced take off with weak GPS signals or GPS
signals are not good, the aircraft will automatically return to the place
where it achieved, good GPS signal for the first time.

4. If the power is less than 10% or the battery voltage is less than 10.6V,
aircraft will enter in forced landing mode.

Failsafe RTH

When the aircraft loses connection with the remote control for more ®
than 5 seconds, the aircraft automatically returns or land directly.
Performance requirements:
(1) After the aircraft loses control for 5 seconds, it triggers automatic return;
(2) If the drone reconnects, it will continue to perform the returning
procedure when Failsafe RTH mode is activated;
(3) Landing directly when there is no GPS signal or the signal is not strong.

4.5 Optical Flow Vision positioning System

The aircraft is equipped with a downward optical flow vision positioning

system, which is composed of a downward vision camera and a TOF (time

of flight) sensor so that the drone can hover stably at low altitudes

without GPS or when weak GPS signals.

Note (1). The Vision Systems work best with adequate lighting and clearly

marked or textured obstacles. It is not designed to completely replace the

pilots controls and judgement, please pay attention to the aircraft and

HUBSAN APP tips, and do not rely too much on the Visual systems.

(2)The vision system cannot be used normally in scenes where the ambient

light is too bright, too dark, specular, water, reflective, sparsely textured, etc.

Please make sure there are no stickers or impurities on the gimbal before
take off, and place the aircraft on flat and open ground. Please do not
bump the gimbal after the power is turned on.

The gimbal contains precision parts. If it is hit or damaged, the precision
parts will be damaged, which may cause the performance of the gimbal to
decrease. Please take good care of the gimbal and camera from physical
damage.

Please keep the gimbal clean and avoid the gimbal from contacting
foreign objects such as sand or stone, otherwise it may block the
movement of the gimbal and affect its performance.

If the aircraft is placed on uneven ground or grass, the ground object
touches the gimbal, or the gimbal is subjected to excessive external
force (such as being bumped or broken) may cause the gimbal motor
to be abnormal.

Do not add any objects to the camera head, otherwise it will affect
the performance of the head and even burn the motor.

Remove the gimbal protection latch before use and then turn it on.
Reinstall the gimbal latch to protect the gimbal during storage or
transportation.

Flying in heavy fog or clouds can cause the gimbal to condense, resulting
in temporary failure. If this happens, the gimbal can return to normal
after drying.
