Info

There are a total of four different ways to switch the MikroKopter on / off.
Three options include a safety function that prevents the motors from being switched off accidentally in flight.
The settings can be changed in the KopterTool under "Settings" -> "Channels"

Motor safety switch

• The MikroKopter motors can be started / stopped in 4 different ways.
  

  • Switching on / off via a stick without safety function
    (In this way, motors can easily be switched off accidentally during flight!)

  • Switch on / off via certain positions of both sticks

  • Switching on / off via stick with additional push button

  • Switching on / off via stick with additional button

  The last 3 options can be used to prevent the motors from being accidentally switched off in flight.

• The setting under Motor safety switch determines how the motors are switched on / off:
  

  • OFF
    

    • Start engines => throttle down + yaw right

    • Stop engines => throttle down + yaw left

  • Inaktiv
    

    • Start engines => throttle down + yaw right plus Nick down + Roll left or right

    • Stop engines => throttle down + yaw left plus Nick down + Roll left or right

  • Ch xx
    - The channel entered here is assigned to a push button on the remote control
    - This channel is inverted on the remote control so that when the button is not pressed, the channel is switched (254).
    

    • Start engines => Press the push button and hold it plus throttle down + yaw right

    • Stop engines => Press the push button and hold it plus throttle down + yaw left

  • Ch xx + hook at engine start / stop
    - The channel entered here is assigned to a 2-way switch on the remote control
    

    • Start engines => throttle down then move 2-way switch to position ON

    • Stop engines => throttle down then move 2-way switch to position OFF
      (The 2-way switch has no function if the gas stick is not at the bottom!)
