The function

The movements of your MikroKopter are controlled by remote control via the sticks nick (forward/backward) and roll (left/right).

If you move the nick-stick away from you => "nick - forward" then the copter flies forward over the front (red rigger).

As long as the copter is facing away from the pilot, it is like sitting in the copter yourself..
Bewegt man den Steuerknüppel nach links, fliegt der Kopter nach links. Steuert man nach rechts, fliegt der Kopter nach rechts.

If you now fly e.g. a 180 ° turn and the front (red rigger) looks to the pilot, confusion can occur.
From the point of view of the MikroKopter is still everything right. Front is still in front, left is left, right is right.
But for the pilot on the ground everything is now upside down. If he controls e.g. to the left, the model flies to the right.

This "nose flying" requires a little practice.

With the Function CareFree (or Headless Mode) there is no front on your copter.
If the function is "on" the MikroKopter will fly in the direction you move with the transmitter - So you have a "fixed flight direction" no matter where the front of the copter is in flight then points.

It is only important to know that the direction forward/back/left/right is fixed in your copter.
In order to avoid confusion in the control, the pilot should then turn with the remote control in the new orientation and remain so.

How to use the function CareFree as help or as a emergency function you can see here.






Radius

http://gallery3.mikrokopter.de/var/albums/intern/CareFree/CareFree_Inside-Outside.jpg?m=1535088203

The CareFree function can be used differently depending on the distance to the starting point.

The distances are:



http://gallery3.mikrokopter.de/var/albums/intern/HoTT/Display2/MK-Telemetrie-Entfernung.jpg?m=1535105322



Via the MK-Telemetrie (next to the house icon) the distance from the copter to the starting point can be viewed =>






CareFree "Inside"

the MikroKopter is within a 20m radius around the starting point around, it is easy to see the front (red rigger) of the copter.

Within this radius, the "fixed flight direction" can be determined by the orientation of the copter itself.

http://gallery3.mikrokopter.de/var/albums/intern/CareFree/CareFree_OFF.jpg?m=1535088204

The function:
By default, the CareFree function is disabled.
The front of the copter (red rigger) is therefore the flight direction forward.

To determine the "fixed flight direction" yourself, fly the copter inside the 20m range
around the starting point.

If the copter is within the 20m radius around the starting point, the "fixed flight direction" is determined as follows =>

  1. Turn the copter with the front (red rigger) in the desired direction.

  2. Activate the CareFree function

  3. The direction in which the front (red rigger) now shows, is now automatically set as the direction of flight "forward"




As long as the CareFree function is active, the copter retains this "fixed flight direction" for forward/back/left/right - no matter how you turn the copter during the flight and how far away the copter is.


IMPORTANT
The pilot should turn now in the now set forward / backward direction and stay in this position!!!

If the pilot turns with the remote control, it can lead to confusion in the control !

The (flight)directions are fixed to the copter, not to the remote control !






CareFree "Outside"

Befindet sich der MikroKopter außerhalb des 20m Radius um den Startpunkt herum, kann es schwierig sein die Ausrichtung des Kopter zu bestimmen.
Hier kann die Funktion CareFree auch als Notfunktion genutzt werden.

Aktiviert man nun die Funktion CareFree, wird die aktuelle Position des Kopters und die Position des Startpunktes genutzt.
Die Richtung zwischen diesen beiden Positionen wird automatisch als vor/zurück Flugrichtung festgelegt.

http://gallery3.mikrokopter.de/var/albums/intern/CareFree/CareFree_OFF.jpg?m=1535088204

The function:
By default, the CareFree function is disabled.
The front of the copter (red rigger) is therefore the flight direction forward.

The Kopter is located outside of the 20m radius around the starting point..

If the copter is outside the 20m radius around the starting point, the "fixed flight direction" is automatically set as follows =>

  1. The front of the copter (red rigger) points in any direction (usually not visible)

  2. Activate the CareFree function

  3. On the line between copter position and start position, the alignment is now automatically set backwards / forwards




As long as the CareFree function is active, the copter retains this "fixed flight direction" for forward/back/left/right - no matter how you turn the copter during the flight and how far away the copter is.


IMPORTANT
The pilot should turn now in the now set forward / backward direction and stay in this position!!!

If the pilot turns with the remote control, it can lead to confusion in the control !
