HERCULES X4 Flight Modes

The HERCULES X4 can operate in 4 different flight modes:

1. ALTHOLD

  • In this mode, the Drone maintains a constant altitude while allowing roll, pitch, and yaw to be controlled normally.

2. LOITER

  • In this mode, the Drone maintains its current altitude and location (based on the GPS signal).
  • The pilot can operate the Drone as if it were in manual flight mode, but when the sticks are released, the vehicle will slow to a stop and hold hover.

3. AUTO

  • In automatic mode, the Drone follows a pre-programmed mission plan stored in the autopilot, which consists of navigation commands.

4. RTL (Return to Launch)

  • In return-to-launch mode, the Drone will hover from its current position to the HOME location and then auto-land.
  • There is a maximum height of 15 meters for RTL:
    • If the Drone is below 15 meters when activating the RTL mode, it will climb to 15 meters before carrying out the procedure.
    • If the Drone is above 15 meters, it will carry out the procedure maintaining the current height.
