FIELD REFERENCE CARD

Preflight

Hold aileron / elevator stick in a corner as you flip mode switch 3 times, starting and ending in aided or autonomous position. Ruby will immediately wag all control surfaces to indicate beginning of preflight. After 5 seconds, Ruby will wag controls to indicate status:

If elevator wags, OK TO FLY:

3 wags: plane is currently more than 30 feet from home / landing target.

5 wags: plane is less than 30 feet from home / landing target. Not good if currently in pit area!

If aileron / rudder wags to left , DO NOT FLY:

4 wags: Battery very low. You probably don't have enough power remaining for a safe flight.

8 wags: No radio link. Be sure transmitter is on and bound to receiver (light appears on receiver).

If aileron / rudder wags to right , FLY WITH CAUTION. Ruby may not be fully functional:

2 wags: GPS invalid. First fix may take up to 2 minutes, so you may simply need to try Preflight again. Be sure GPS is clear of wires, antenna pointing up, far from video transmitter, and at least a few inches away from switching BEC, ESC, and other sources of interference.)

3 wags: Battery somewhat low. You may just have enough power for a short flight.

5 wags: Magnetometer distorted. Be sure that the plane is away from car, tools, watch, etc..

6 wags: Preflight never completed because plane never stopped moving. The plane must be absolutely stationary during preflight.

7 wags: Misc. sensor or other issue. Send recorded data to support@uthere.com if problem persists.

8 wags: Radio link poor. Be sure transmitter is on and bound to receiver, and receiver and antenna is clear of wires, far from video transmitter, and at least a few inches away from switching BEC, ESC, and other sources of interference, and antenna wire is not broken.)

9 wags: Sensor orientation hasn't been set

Mode Switch

Action 2 position switch 3 position switch   **** When flipping switch multiple times to select various autonomous modes, start and end with the switch in the position furthest away from you. Count each time that you flip it towards you. Flip the switch deliberately, but don't pause more than a second between flips. With a 3 position switch, you can flip just between farthest and center position, or between farthest and closest, whichever you prefer.
Manual mode Switch towards you Switch towards you
Aided mode Switch away from you Switch in middle position
Loiter at current position and altitude Flip switch 3 times. Switch furthest away from you
Return home and loiter at 400 ft AGL Flip switch 4 times Flip switch 2 times.
  (or turn off transmitter)
Autonomous Landing Flip switch 5 times. Flip switch 3 times.
Control via Laptop Flip switch 6 times. Flip switch 6 times.
Waypoints Flip switch 7 times. Flip switch 7 times.
Preflight Hold right stick in any corner while flipping switch 3 times
Preflight and set "home" / landing location. Hold right stick in any corner while flipping switch 5 times
