How important is the calibration of the drone?
Inconsistent calibration will greatly increase the risk of the bomber! !
Don't think that Xiaofei is fooling you. In fact, many of the drone's bombers are caused by the horizontal calibration before the flight, the compass calibration, and the ESC calibration. This tutorial will explain how to operate correctly with the drone equipped with T1-A flight control.
Horizontal calibration
The horizontal calibration steps are as follows:
Steps 1. Place the aircraft on a level surface to ensure that the fuselage is level and vibration free.
Step 2. Perform an external splay lock on the remote control for more than 10 seconds until the status light blue and green lights begin to flash alternately.
Step 3. Loosen the remote control lever to keep the throttle low. After about 10 seconds, the status indicator changes to a blue light, and after about 15 seconds, the status indicator flashes normally.
The operation diagram is as shown below:
Note: If the aircraft is still severely off after the attitude mode is taken during the future flight, it is recommended to re-calibrate the horizontal.
Compass calibration
The steps for compass calibration are as follows:
Steps 1. Push the throttle stick to the lowest position.
Step 2. Switch the remote control's 5-channel switch back and forth about 6~10 times at the lowest position and the highest position until the status indicator blue light is on.
Step 3. Move the nose of the aircraft forward, horizontally, and then slowly rotate clockwise at least one turn until the status light is steady green.
Step 4. With the nose of the aircraft facing down, the body is vertical, then slowly rotate clockwise at least one turn until the status indicator white light is on for 4 seconds.
If the status indicator red light is on for 4 seconds, the calibration has failed. Repeat steps 2 through 4 until the operation is successful.
The operation diagram is as shown below:
ESC calibration
Step 1. Push the throttle stick to the highest position.
At this point, the status light indicates the current GPS status and flight mode.
Step 2. Switch the 5-channel switch back and forth between the lowest position and the highest position for about 6~10 times until the status indicator lights up red.
Step 3. Keep the throttle position unchanged, disconnect the main power supply, and then re-energize.
Note: If your power and flight control are powered separately, when the calibration ESC is powered back on, you need to first cut off the power, then turn off the flight control, then first fly the power control, and finally turn on the power.
Step 4. After about 0.5 seconds of power-on, you will hear the motor “di-di-” and then pull the throttle stick to the lowest position within 2 seconds. At this time, the status indicator flashes red and blue alternately, and the normal indication is entered.
The operation diagram is shown in the figure below.
After the ESC calibration is successful, when the motor is unlocked, the motor will rotate in order, otherwise it will need to be recalibrated.
Finally, Xiaobian wants to say that the calibration before each take-off is a very good habit. Only if you are willing to spend time and energy to treat the drone, will it listen to your words and reduce the accident of the bomber.
