# Step 

# 4 Compass Calibration
Without GPS module , please skip this step

. If you use w ith GP S module , follow step

- by

- step for calibration.

z DO NOT calibrate your compass where there is strong magnetic interference, such as magnetite, car park, and steel reinforcement under the ground.
z DO NOT carry ferromagnetic materials with you during calibra tion, such as keys or cell phones.


## z Compass module CANNOT work in the polar circle.



# Calibration Procedures

1. Quickly switch the control mode switch from GPS Mode to Manual Mode and back to GPS Mode for 6 to
10 times

. The LED indicator will turn on solid BLU E

. 2. Rotate your Multi

- rotor around the horizontal axis (about 360 o 

## ) until the LED changes to solid GREEN
, and then go to the next step.
3. Hold your Multi

- rotor vertically and rotate it (its nose MUST be downward) around the vertical axis (about
360 o 

## ) until th e LED turns off, meaning the calibration is finished

.

4. The LED indicator will show whether the calibration is successful or not.

z If the LED keeps WHITE for 3 seconds, meaning the calibration is succes sful, and then calibration mode will exit automatically.
z If the LED keeps flashing quickly RED , the calibration has failed. Switch the control mode switch
one time to cancel the calibration, and then re

- start from step 1.

1. You don’t need to rotate your multi

- rotor on a precise horizontal or vertical surface, but keep at

least 45° difference between horizontal and vertical calibration. 2. If you keep having calibration failure, it might suggest that there is very strong magnetic

interference around the GPS & Compass module, please avoid flying in this area. 3. When to do re

- calibration.

z The flight field is changed.
z T he multi

- rotor mechanical setup has changed , including the following situations:

a) If the GPS & Compass module is re

- positioned. b) E lectronic devices ad ded , removed or re - positioned (Main Controller, servos, batteries, etc). c) When the mechanical structure of the multi

- rotor is changed.
z If the flight direction appears shifting (meaning the multi

- rotor doesn’t “fly straight”).
z The LED indicator often indicat es abnormality blinking when the multi

- rotor spins. But i t is normal
for t his to happen only occasionally.
z LED blinks yellow and green ( ) continually , indicating that the compass data is abnormal.

# 1 About the Control Mode Switch The autopilot system can work in Manual Mode and ATTI. Mode without a GPS module. After connect ing to the GPS module, GPS Mode is available. Follow the bellow steps to enter the different control mode s. 1. Use a 3

- position switch on t he transmitter as mode control switch. 2. Make sure to take off the aircraft in ATTI. Mode in every flight. 3. Hover the Aircraft. Release all joysticks and then flip the control mode switch to the GPS Mode or Manual Mode (NOT RECOMMENDED).


# Step 

# 2 Start & Stop M otor Star Motor : Pushing throttle stick before takeoff will not start motors. You have to execute any one of following four Combination Stick Commands (CSC) to start motors

Stop Motor : The default setting of stop motor is Immediately. For the immediately mode, in any control mode, once motors start and throttle stick is over 10%, motors will stop immediately when throttle stick is back under 10% again

. In t his case, if you push the throttle stick over 10% within 5 s after motors stop, motors will re

- start, CSC is not needed. If you don’t push throttle stick after motors start with in 3s , motors will stop automatically. Please refer to the instructions of A1 and A2 in the Advanced Functions section , to learn more about the Control Mode and Stop Motor details. 

# Setp 

# 3 Checking List before Flying

z Make sure you have assembled your multi

- rotor correctly.
z Make sure you have done the configuration procedure co rrectly.
z Make sure all connections are in good condition.
z Make sure batteries are fully charged for your transmitter, autopilot system and all devices.
z Any of the followin g mistakes will lead to a dangerous accident, double check all these items: Rotation direction of motor is opposite / Propeller installation mistak e / Main controller installation mistake / Wrong connection between the main controller and ESC.
z Always switch on the transmitter first, then power on multi

- rotor! (Power off multi

- rotor first, then switch off the transmitter after landing!)
z Make sure the GPS signal is good, only one Red LED blinking or without Red LED blinking. Otherwise multi

- rotor will drift without stick commands.
z When system is powered on, you MUST NOT move your multi

- rot or or sticks on transmitter until the system initialization is finished (about 5 second).
z Please AVOID using the autopilot system in areas of urban area with crowded buildings, tunnels and under bridges, where GPS signal will be blocked most likely.
z In ATTI Mode, throttle stick center position is for 0m/s along the vertical direction. You should keep the position of throttle stick higher than 10% from cut

- throttle during the flight!
z Please do the fly test and gain tuning with ATTI. Mode in the open air w ithout heavy wind!
z Refer to the indication in the software: Basic

# Step 

# 4 F lying Procedures

1. If in GPS Mode, place the aircraft in an open space without buildings or trees. Take off the aircraft after 6 or
more GPS satellites are fou nd (R ED LED blinks once or no blinking). If in Manual Mode or ATTI. Mode, you can skip this step. 2. Place the aircraft three meters away from you and others (especially child) , to avoid accidental injury

. 

# 3. Start

- up

9 S witch on the transmitter, and then power on autopilot system ! You MUST NOT move your multi

- rotor or sticks on transmitter until the system initialization is finished (about 5 second).
9 Push both sticks of transmitter to the left bottom or right bottom to start the motors. 9 Release the yaw, roll and p itch sticks and keep them at the neutral position , avoiding the aircraft to tilt to one side. At the same time raise the throttle stick from the bottom quickly. The motors will stop if you do not push the throttle stick from the bottom within 3 s and you wi ll need to execute the start

- up procedure again. When the aircraft is on the point of leaving the ground, continue to push the throttle stick upwards to take off from the ground, pay attention not to push the stick excessively. 

# 9 Pay attention to the aircraf t movement at any time when flying, and use the sticks to adjust the aircraft’s position

. Keep the yaw, roll, pitch and throttle sticks at the neutral position to hover the aircraft at the
desired height. 

# 4. Lower the aircraft slowly. Pull the throttle stick to the bottom and then push the sticks to the left bottom or right bottom to stop the motors after landing. (Also, with throttle stick under 10%, and after landing 3s the motors will stop automatically) 

# 5. Power off the autopilot system , and then switch off t he transmitter after landing.

z DO NOT fly near to any ferromagnetic substances, to avoid strong magnetic interference with the GPS. Otherwise, it may cause the aircraft to FailSafe, crack or even fly away.
z If abnormal compass dat a occurs during flying, LED will blink Yellow and Green alternatively ( )

. If in ATTI and Manual Mode, it is free from influence. In any other control mode, the autopilot system will enter into ATTI. Mode automatically ; once the compass data goes back t o normal, the autopilot system will regain the original control mode.
z If the LED flashes quickly YELLOW then this indicates battery voltage is low, land ASAP.
z It is recommended to land the aircraft slowly, to prevent the aircraft from damage.
z If the tra nsmitter indicates low

- battery alarm, please land ASAP. In this condition the transmitter may cause the aircraft to go out of control or even crash.
z The LED will blink White to indicate h uge cumulative yaw errors caused by spinning the craft continuously. In this case, you can stop or slow down the spinning, and continue flying after the White blinking has stopped, so as to have better flight performance.
z If Low

- Voltage Alarm is set, the aircraft will act according to the configuration of the Assistant S oftware once Low

- Voltage Alarm is triggered.
z If Fail

- Safe function is set, the aircraft will act according to the configuration of the Assistant Software once Fail

- Safe is triggered.

z Refer to the LED Indicator Description in the Appendix.

# 2 Start & Stop Motor Knowledge Both Immediately Mode and Intelligent Mode are available in the Assistant Software:
Advanced

- >Motor

- >Stop Type.

If necessary, please s elect the Intelligent Mode i n t he Assistant Software

. By using the Intelligent Mode , different control mode has different way of stopping motors.
z In Manual Mode, only executing CSC can stop motors.
z In ATTI. Mode or GPS Mode, any one of following four cases will stop motors: a) You don’t push throttle stick after motors start within three seconds; b) Executing CSC; c) Throttle stick under 10%, and after landing 3 seconds. d) The slope angle of multi

- rotor is over 70°, and throttle stick under 10%. 

# For Intelligent Mode

z In ATTI. / GPS Mode, it has landing judgment, which will stop motors.
z Start motors in ATTI. / GPS Mode, you have to execute CSC and then push throttle stick over 10% in 3 seconds, otherwise motors will stop after 3 seconds.
z During normal flight, only pull throttle stick under 10% wi ll not stop motors in any control mode.
z For safety reason, when the slope angle of multi

- rotor is over 70° during the flight in ATTI. / GPS Mode (may be caused by collision, motor and ESC error or propeller broken down), and throttle stick is under 10%, mo tors will stop automatically.


# For Both Intelligent Mode & Immediately Mode

z If you choose the Immediately Mode, you SHOULD NOT pull throttle stick under 10% during flight, because it will stop motors. If you do it accidentally, you should push the throt tle stick over
10% in 5s to re

- start motors

z When transmitter commands are valid under any control modes, the motors will start or stop immediately when you execute CSC. It has nothing to do with the current throttle stick position.
Please DO NOT executes C SC during flight without a good reason.

z If you choose Intelligent , throttle stick under 10% will trigger landing judgment in any control mode. In this judgment, pitch, roll and yaw controls are denied except throttle, but multi

- rotor
will still auto lev el.

z In any control mode, DO NOT pull throttle stick under 10% during normal flight without any

reason.

z The two cut off types will only work correctly if the transmitter calibration is correct.

z In failed

- safe, CSC is denied by the main controller, motors will hold their state.

# 3 Intelligent Orientation Control (IOC) Flight (with GPS module)
Definition of Forward Direction: 

## Multi

- rotor will fly along this direction when you push the elevator stick. 

# Graphic Description : Forwar d direction 

# Step 

# 1 Before You Start Usually, the forward direction of a flying multi

- rotor is the same as the nose direction. By using IOC, wherever the nose points, the forward direction has nothing to do with nose direction . The red and blue arrows on th e
transmitter are corresponding to pitch and roll operations in the following diagram.

z In course lock flying, the forward direction is the same as a recorded nose direction.

z All the following requirements are met : the autopilot system is in ATTI. Mode or GPS Mode.

Normal flying Course Lock Flying

z In home lock flying, the forward direction is the same as the direction from home point to multi

- rotor.

z All the following requirements are met : 6 or more GPS satellites are found , in GPS Mode, and the aircraft is further than 10m away from the home point.

Normal flying Home Lock Flying

z In POI ( POI, Point Of Interest ) flying, the roll channel controls the multi rotor circular flight speed around a fixed point, the pitch channel is used for controlling the diameter around the fixed point, the throttle is used to control the height around the fixed point.

z All the following requirements are met: 6 or more GPS satellites are found, in GPS Mode, and the aircraft is further than 5m (and less than 500m) away from the Point of Interest.

# Step 

# 2 IOC Switch Setting

Refer to the assistant software; click the “Advanced” to find the “IOC”.
Before using the IOC function, you have to choose a 3

- position switch on your transmitter as the IOC switch, which is also used for recording the orientation, home position or point of interest in corresponding modes. There are three IOC control mode options , and you should select one in the assistant software.
Switch Options Positon

- 1 Positon

- 2 Positon

- 3
Control 1 OFF Course Lock Home Lock
Control 2 OFF Course Lock POI
Control 3 OFF POI Home Lock

The above table is for example. The function of the switch pos ition may be reversed since the normal/reversed setting of the switch channel. Toggle the switch and observe the slider position of channel X2 on the assistant software screen, the corresponding area should turn blue.


# Step 

# 3 Method of Forward Direction , H ome Point & POI Recording If you use the IOC function, please be aware of the Forward Direction of Course Lock Flying , the home point of Home Lock Flying , and the Point of Interest of the POI Flying

. There are two ways to record the forward direction

and t he home point : Manually and Automatically. You may choose any one record method. If the IOC switch is set as the above table; you can do the manual recording according to the following table. Manually

## IOC FLYING NOTES !!!

When Multi

- rotor is flying by home lock far away from you and the home point, please DO NOT toggle the IOC switch many times quickly so as to avoid the change of home point without your

attention.

z Home lock flying requires that 6 or more GPS satellites are found and the aircraft is further than 10m away from the home point.

z In POI flying, avoid usin g POI in areas where the GPS signal might be lost or the transmitter / receiver signal might be lost (such as built up urban areas), to make sure 6 or more GPS
satellites are found. And the multi

- rotor is required to fly further than 5m (and less than 500m) away from the Point of Interest.

z Continuously spinning will cause a yaw error. In this case, you can stop or slow down the spinning, so as to have better flight performance.

z If the IOC flying requirement is not satisfied , the autopilot system will quit IOC control mode. Please be aware of the LED indicator, to know the current control mode of the autopilot system.

z Before you do the home lock flight, you have to fly the aircraft out of the 10m range around home point, a nd then flip the IOC switch to Home Lock position to fly in home lock when all the requirements are met. If you have already toggled the IOC switch to Home Lock position when the aircraft is still in 10m range around home point, and this is the first time you are going to fly in home lock during the current flight, then if all the requirements are met, the main controller will change into home lock automatically when Multi

- rotor flies out the 10m range around home point..

z When you are flying in home lock mo de, if the aircraft is back into the 10m range around home point, or you switch into ATTI. Mode, or the GPS signal becomes weak, the autopilot system will fly in course lock by the current forward direction automatically. But this forward direction is
NOT the recorded forward direction. If you open the course lock now, it will fly in course lock still by the earlier recorded forward direction.

z We suggest that you should know clearly that, by which lock method you are going to fly, and

the locked forward dir ection or home point, before you switch on IOC mode during the flight.

z Refer to the LED Description in the Appendix for more details.

# 4 FailSafe
Fail Safe methods include Hover, Go

- home, and Altitude Go

- home. Choose one as your fail safe method, which will be triggered when the MC loses the control signal in one of the following situations: 1) Signal lost between transmitter and receiver, e.g. multi

- rotor is out of the communication range, or
transmitter has failed, etc. 2) One or more connections of A, E, T , R, U channels between the MC and receiver is lost. If this happens

before take

- off, the motors will not start if you raise the throttle stick. If this happens during the flight, the LED will flash blue to warn you, in addition to the fail

- safe method. If Hovering fail

- safe method is configured and U channel is disconnected, multi

- rotor will auto land.

Also, you can select the Go

- Home Switch item to start go

- home (Go

- home, and Altitude Go

- home) by using a TX switch during the flight, when selected during flight the LED will flash purple instead of blue.
The m ulti

- rotor position before takeoff, including reference longitude, reference latitude and reference altitude , is saved as home point by the MC automatically when you raise the throttle stick for the f irst time AND it has 6 or more GPS satellites acquired for more than 8 seconds ( blinks once or no blinking >8secs) After taking off, every time the aircraft recorded a home

- point successfully the LED will blink Cyan quickly for indicating.

THEREFORE: to use any form of Go

- home (including fail safe return home), you must make sure 6 or more GPS satellites are acquired for more than 8 seconds ( blinks once or no blinking >8secs) before take

- off, this wi ll assure correct recording of the Home position.

- mount the GPS module. In the following diagram (view from the top), the aircraft can appear to be r otating in both clockwise and

counter

re - mounting GPS in an offsetting angle as showed in right figure. Θ
in t he figure is the offsetting angle.



# Attitude Controllable When One Motor Output is Failed
For Hexa

- rotor, including Hexa

- rotor I, Hexa

- rotor V, Hexa

- rotor IY and Hexa

- rotor Y, aircraft is attitude controllable when one motor output is failed.
The WK M ca n still control the attitude of the Hexa

- rotor for a safe landing when one motor output of the
Hexa

- rotor has failed, for example, one motor is stopped or one propeller is broken, etc.
The control mode of WK M should be in Atti. Mode or GPS Mode. The aircra ft will rotate, due to an imbalance of torque; however, it can still be controlled by the Transmitter. O b j e c t i v e f l i g h t d i r e c t i o n G P S m o u n t i n g d i r e c t i o n

## 27 | Select Course lock or home lock mode for flying the aircraft into a safe area to land when the aircraft is far away or the attitude can’t be recognized. Even when the multi rotor is rotating, using Course lock or home lock mode will allow you to move the multi rotor in the corresponding Transmitter stick direction.


# Flight Restriction in Specified Area Description Flight Functions are restricted within the radius of 15Km from Tiananmen Square in Beijing, China. In the restricted area, with GPS/Compass Module and GPS signal is good, you cannot take of f the aircraft in any
Control Mode. In the restricted area, with GPS/Compass Module and GPS signal is bad, yo u can take o f f the aircraft, once the GPS signal becomes good, you can only control the aircraft to land

. Manual Mode is free form restriction

. Fly into the restricted area, you can only control the aircraft to land. Manual Mode is free form restriction

# Abnormal C ases in Motor Test
Below are abnormal cases and solutions for Motor Test in the Assistant software (1) Tested motor does not rotate, there are two situations: a) Connection issues: please check the connections first, such as whether MC and motors are po wer on, whether connection between MC and ESC is well, whether three cables of ESC are correctly connected to motor. If connections are well, then check whether motors or ESC are breakdown. b) Please increase the Motor Idle Speed in the Advanced page of Assis tant software. (2) Tested motor rotates in wrong direction: please swap over any two wire connections of the motor. (3) Rotating motor is not the tested motor (e.g. M2 motor rotates when click button”M1”): please ensure the
cable of ESC is correct connected to the right port of MC.



# Solution for LED yellow and green blink ing LED blinks yellow and green ( ) alternatively means compass errors or interferences: (1) Long time : in this case compass calibration is required. (2) Temporary : e.g. LED blinks several times when the aircraft flying over some district and then no
blinks; or take an calibrated aircraft from outside to inside of house, the may appear inside. In these cases the

compass is ok and has no influences to flight. Compass calibration is not required

. When compass dat a become abnormal ( LED blinks yellow and green ) during flying , for safety reasons, the autopilot system will auto change the control mode. H owever in ATTI

. and Manual Mode is free from influence. In any other control mode, the autopilot system will enter into ATTI. Mode automatically ( the mode s hown on status
bar will be “ Atti. ” if you connect the autopilot to the assistant software). O nce the compass data go back to normal, the autopilot system will regain the original control mode.
