🔋 1. Power On Drone First

Always turn on the SkyHawk drone before attempting to pair the remote.

• Wait for the drone to fully power up before interacting with the remote.

🕹️ 2. Pair the Remote

• Turn on the remote after the drone is fully powered up.
• Pair the remote by pushing the left joystick up (forward), then down (backward).
• Indicator lights:
  • A blinking yellow light means it's waiting to pair.
  • Once paired, the light turns solid red.
• Note: If pairing fails repeatedly, another powered-on remote nearby may be interfering. Power off all other remotes to ensure successful pairing.

📡 3. Disable GPS Mode

Use the GPS toggle button on the remote to disable GPS mode.

• Turning off GPS will activate the red lights on the bottom to a solid glow.

🚁 4. Propeller & Visual Check

• Inspect all propellers for damage or cracking.
• SkyHawk drones may use labeled propellers (e.g., A1, A2, B1, B2).
• Ensure each propeller is mounted in the correct location.
• Replace damaged propellers if possible. If none are available, hold for later or dispose properly at end of shift.

🚀 5. Start the Drone

• Pull the left joystick diagonally down and left.
• Simultaneously pull the right joystick diagonally down and right.
• This starts the propellers and arms the drone for flight.

🎮 6. Joystick Controls

• Left joystick: Controls altitude (up/down) and rotation.
• Right joystick: Controls directional movement (forward/backward, left/right).

✅ 7. Final Flight & QC Checks

• Confirm stable flight, clean response to joystick input, and no drifting.
• Watch for odd noises, vibrations, or issues with hovering.
• Secure and package drone appropriately once complete.
