Failsafe Capability

• Lost radio return to launch

• Radio telemetry to alert and monitor control signal strength

• Low battery auto returns to home and land

• GPS fault switch to altitude hold and manual return

Redundancy

• Failover power system for flight control and components

• A very powerful 32-bit processor with an additional failsafe backup controller and extensive memory

• Secondary GPS with automated failover

Advanced Sensor profile

• 3 axis 16-bit ST Micro L3GD20H gyro for determining orientation.

• 3 axis 14-bit accelerometer and magnetometer for determining outside influences and compass heading.

• External magnetometer with automatic switch-over if desired.

• MEAS MS5611 barometric pressure sensor for determining altitude.

• Built in voltage and current sensing for battery condition determination.

• Externally mounted dual UBLOX LEA GPS for determining absolute position.

Lipo Battery safety

• All lithium polymer batteries are stored in lipo safe bags and are only take out and installed onto the RPAS when flight operations are in process.

• Lipo safe charging is conducted using best practice.

• Lost Ground Control Station link return to home and land

• EKF/DCM Algorithm– allows combined sensor readings to be used for navigation if a senor becomes faulty or fails.

• Geo fence enabled to 500m horizontal and 400ft vertical, on breach return to launch and land
