Flight

After installing and preparing the product, please first complete flight training or practice (we recommend doing this in beginner mode). Choose an appropriate flying environment. The aircraft has a maximum flight altitude of 120 meters.

Flight Environment Requirements

• Do not fly in severe weather conditions such as strong winds, snow, rain, or fog.
• It is recommended to fly in an open space with at least a 33ft (10m) radius free of obstructions. Flying at an altitude greater than 49ft (15m) is suggested to avoid ground obstacles and signal interference.
• Keep the aircraft within line of sight during flight, and stay clear of obstacles and crowds.
• When flying over water, maintain a distance of at least 9.8ft (3 meters) from the surface.
• Control signals can be disrupted by high-voltage power lines, communication towers, or transmission towers. Avoid flying near these areas.
• When GPS is active, the aircraft can achieve stable hovering, smart return-to-home, and smart flight functions. Without GPS, these functions will not work, and the aircraft may drift with the wind and fail to hover.

Pre-Flight Checklist

• Ensure that the remote controller, smart flight battery, and mobile device have sufficient power.
• Make sure the aircraft’s arms are fully extended.
• Make sure GPS is enabled to avoid losing signal, and fly outdoors in an open area.
• Check that the data cable connecting the remote controller and mobile device is securely installed.
• After powering on, verify that all four motors start normally and that their speeds are consistent.
• If replacing parts, always use original manufacturer components.

Connect the Data Cable

• Select the appropriate data cable.
• Use the data cable to connect the remote controller to the mobile device.

Compass Calibration

If the aircraft is flying in an environment with significant interference or if you experience unusual behavior indicating possible loss of control, you can check the compass interference level using the app. Perform a compass calibration to address this issue. The main purpose is to prevent sensor interference from causing abnormalities, which could lead to loss of control and potential crashes.

Calibration Steps

Short-press to enter compass calibration.

1. Extend the aircraft’s four arms and place it on a flat, open surface.
2. Turn on the aircraft and the remote controller, and ensure they are paired successfully.
3. Open the app to see the calibration guide animation.
4. Press the compass calibration button on the remote controller; the aircraft’s lights will start flashing quickly.

Horizontal Calibration

Follow the app’s instructions: Hold the aircraft at a height of 1 meter above the ground, rotate it horizontally 2-3 times until you hear a beep, and the app indicates that it’s time to begin vertical calibration.

Vertical Calibration

Hold the aircraft to a height of 1 meter above the ground with the camera facing up. Rotate the aircraft vertically 2-3 times until you hear a beep and the animation on the app interface stops. This indicates that the compass calibration is complete. The aircraft’s lights will return to their original state.

Gyroscope Calibration

Gyroscope Calibration Steps

 

• Ensure the aircraft is placed on a level surface with enough space below the camera.
• Push both the left and right control sticks to the ‘5 o’clock position simultaneously.

Return to Home (RTH)

• The G11PRO aircraft features a Return to Home (RTH) function in GPS mode when it has a strong GPS signal. This function returns the aircraft to the last recorded home point and lands it automatically. There are three types of RTH: Smart RTH, Low Battery RTH, and Lost Signal RTH.

Home Point Definition

Smart RTH

• When you need the aircraft to return home automatically, you can press the Smart Return-to-Home button on the remote controller or tap the return-to-home icon on the app interface to initiate automatic return.
• During the return-to-home process, pressing the button or tapping the icon again will cancel the return. After canceling Smart RTH, you can regain control of the aircraft.
• During the Smart RTH process, you can maneuver the aircraft to ascend or descend to avoid obstacles. You can also press the RTH button again to cancel the return.

Low Battery RTH

• When the smart flight battery is too low or there is not enough power to return home, the user should land the aircraft as soon as possible to avoid damage to the aircraft or other dangers.
• To prevent unnecessary dangers due to insufficient battery power, the Low Battery RTH function will be automatically triggered when the aircraft’s battery power is low.
• According to the remaining power after starting to return, there are 2 situations:
  • First-level low battery:
    • After the aircraft triggers the Low Battery RTH, it will automatically return to the Home Point and hover. After hovering, it can continue to fly within a 98ft (30m) radius at a height of 98ft (30m).
  • Second-level low battery
    • The aircraft will land directly on the ground.

• When the aircraft’s battery is low, the remote controller will emit a sound. At First-level Low Battery, the remote controller will beep slowly. At Second-level Low Battery, the remote controller will beep rapidly.

Lost Signal RTH

• If the remote controller’s battery is low, turned off, or loses signal for 10 seconds, the aircraft will enter automatic return-to-home mode and return to the Home Point.
• If the remote controller reconnects during the RTH process and you wish to cancel the return, you can press the RTH button to cancel it.
• Lost Signal RTH process
  • Record Home Point. (For information about the Home Point, refer to section 3.4.1.)
  • Trigger RTH (triggered by low battery of remote controller, signal loss, etc.).
  • After triggering the RTH, the aircraft adjusts the nose direction and starts to return home.
  • The aircraft automatically flies to the Home Point, then starts to land, and completes the return.

Smart Flight

Route Planning

• The aircraft flies along the path marked on the App.
• G11PRO has four types of smart flight: Route Planning, GPS Follow, Fly Around, and Cruise Control.

• Make sure that the Gleesfun Fly App has been downloaded and installed on the phone.

4. Tap the icon on the app interface to start the Fly Around.
5. The aircraft will move backward 16ft (5m) (default orbit radius) and then use the position where the Fly Around function was initiated as the center to start the surrounding flight.
6. During the surrounding flight, the pilot can adjust the surrounding radius using the joystick (the radius range can only be between 16ft (5m) and 328ft (100m). Pushing the joystick down will increase the surrounding radius, while pushing the joystick up will decrease the surrounding radius.
7. By default, the aircraft performs a surrounding flight in a counterclockwise direction. The pilot can change the surrounding direction by pushing the directional joystick left or right.

• Tap the icon again to cancel the Fly Around.
• If the flight altitude is lower than 16ft (5m) when the Fly Around is activated, the aircraft will rise to 16ft (5m).
• The flying speed of the surrounding radius depends on the surrounding radius. The larger the radius, the faster the flight speed.

Cruise Control

• The aircraft automatically flies at a constant speed according to the current flight action.
• This function requires the use of GPS mode with a strong GPS signal.

• Set the desired auto-flight distance and altitude, and fly the aircraft to an altitude above 49ft (15m) (it will be unavailable while below 49ft (15m)).
• Keep toggling the left or right joystick to operate the aircraft forward, backward, ascent, or descent, then press the remote controller’s one-key takeoff/landing button ••
• Release the joystick, and the aircraft will fly automatically according to your action. (e.g., pushing the right joystick forward will make the aircraft fly forward automatically.
• During cruise control, you can continue to use the joystick to adjust the aircraft’s direction and altitude. Repeat steps 2 and 3, and the aircraft will automatically fly based on your last joystick input.
• Method 1: During Cruise Control, pressing the one-button takeoff/landing * on the remote controller without operating the joystick will cancel cruise control.
• Method 2: Tap the icon X on the App to exit it. This function is unavailable when the flight altitude is below 49ft (15m). This function is unavailable when the aircraft battery power is low.  During cruising, if the aircraft’s battery is low, it will automatically exit this function.
