IF1200A Flight Modes
Flight Modes and Descriptions
Loiter mode is optimized for precise movements and to hold station in latitude, longitude, altitude, and heading.
If the aircraft is moving and you release the joystick the aircraft will stop and hold station at the location the aircraft was at when you centered the joystick.
Position Hold mode is optimized for larger movements compared with Loiter. The aircraft will hold station in latitude, longitude, altitude, and heading.
If the aircraft is moving and you release the joystick the aircraft will decelerate and hold station at the location when the aircraft stops moving.
This mode is recommended for normal landings and for landing after an autonomous mission.
When activated, the aircraft automatically returns to its Launch position and lands. The Launch position is the original takeoff location of the aircraft.
CAUTION! The IF1200A automatically returns to the launch site as a failsafe when the battery voltage gets too low to continue flight; visually monitor the battery level in QGC and replace the battery conservatively to mitigate risk.
