BATTERIES
The RXS255 has been tested with 4-cell LiPo batteries between 1300 (30C or
higher) and 2200mAh (20C or higher). Typical flight time is around 4 minutes.
The flight controller does not have a low voltage cutoff to protect the LiPo from
damage. There is an alarm that will start beeping and the rear LED panel will
flash when the battery voltage drops to 13.7V. You should land the quadcopter
as soon as possible when you hear or see the alarm.
For your first flight, set a timer for 4 minutes. If the LVC alarm does not start before
the end of the flight, the timer setting could be slowly increased until the optimal
flight time is determined. If the alarm starts before the end of the flight, the timer
setting should be reduced to protect the battery from damage.
WARNING: Your battery life will be reduced and the battery can be damaged
any time the battery voltage is below 12V. Charging a LiPo battery that is damaged
in any way can pose a fire hazard.
FLIGHT MODES
The RXS255 has three pre-programmed flight modes.
Stabilized1 is the Stability Mode. This mode has limits on the tilt angle, and the
quadcopter will level itself when the right stick is centered.
Stabilized 2 is the FPV Mode. This mode will not level the quad and has no limits
tilt angles. The quadcopter will be more maneuverable and the
flight will be smoother in this mode.
Stabilized 3 is the Acro Mode. This mode is available for experienced pilots that
want maximum maneuverability while performing acrobatics. The
quadcopter will react faster in this mode than in the FPV mode.
On the Input screen, when the Flight Mode indicator is to the left, Stabilized1 is
selected. The middle position is Stabilized2 and the right is Stabilized 3.
