Rubytm 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 target. (Not good if currently in pit area!)
If aileron / rudder wags to left , DO NOT FLY:
4 wags: Battery very low
If aileron / rudder wags to right , FLY WITH CAUTION, Ruby may not be functional:
2 wags: GPS invalid (First fix may take up to 2 minutes. Be sure GPS is clear of wires and away from switching power supply.)
3 wags: Battery somewhat low
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
7 wags: Misc. sensor or other issue (send recorded data to support@uthere.com if problem persists)
8 wags: Radio link poor
9 wags: Sensor orientation hasn't been set
