FLIGHT MODES
NORMAL mode is best for new
pilots or those who want a
casual flying experience. In
NORMAL mode, the drone
reacts smoothly to the pilot’s
input for easy control.
•
MODES can be customized in the SKY VIPER VIDEO VIEWER 2.0 app
•
POSITION HOLD is active in both NORMAL and SPORT modes. Simply let go of the control
sticks and the GPS Auto-Pilot will keep the drone in a steady hover and will not drift away.
GPS enabled flight is intended for outdoor use only. Attempting to fly indoors may result in erratic behavior.
• Once the drone has GPS LOCK, its HOME is set to its current location when you launch.
• With a simple press of a button, you can tell your drone to fly itself back to its original launch point
without any further input.
• During this return flight, you will still have altitude and direction control to avoid obstacles.
• Pressing the Home button during this return flight will cancel it and put the drone in its previous flight
mode.
• When using the Sky Viper Video Viewer 2.0 app, you can return to your device’s GPS location instead.
SPORT mode allows for
experienced pilots to perform
more aggressive maneuvers.
The drone's response rate to
pilot input is much higher for
sharper turns and more speed.
