11.4 GPS Searching

Note: DO NOT use GPS Mode indoors.

Diagram of a Holy Stone drone with indicator lights shown. Front lights are white, rear lights are blue.

Place the drone on a flat and dry surface in an unobstructed and well-lit area.

The front White indicator light and the rear Blue indicator light will flash quickly, indicating the drone is searching for the GPS signal. This process takes about one minute.

When all four lights turn solid, GPS Mode is Ready. The drone can only take off when successfully connected to GPS.

Lights status: Blue (rear) and white (front) lights are all solid (no blinking).

ATTENTION:

If the LED Flight Indicators keep blinking quickly, it indicates the drone is searching for GPS signals.
If the drone keeps blinking quickly after a few minutes, it indicates that the process has FAILED. Please move the drone one meter or so from the ground and repeat all the Compass Calibration operations until the process is successful.
When flying indoors, please hold the ? button for 3 seconds to exit GPS Mode. The LED lights will blink slowly. You can fly this drone when you complete the Compass Calibration operations if you exit GPS mode.

11.5 Unlock the Motor

Simultaneously push the left joystick to the lower right corner and the right joystick to the lower left corner. The propellers rotate, indicating the drone is unlocked.

12.2 Beginner's Mode

The Default GPS Mode is Beginner Mode. Under Beginner Mode:

Flight Distance is limited between 0~30m/0~98.4feet.
Flight Altitude is limited between 0~30m/0~98.4feet.
RTH Altitude is under 25m/82feet.

Screenshot of the drone app's 'Flight parameter settings' page in Beginner Mode. It shows fields for Flight distance (default 30m), Flight altitude (default 30m), and Cruise-in altitude (default 25m), with sliders and input fields. A 'Save' button is visible.

After entering the APP settings page (as shown above), users can turn off the Beginner Mode to enter the Advanced Mode and modify the operation parameters.

You can only turn off the Beginner Mode to modify the parameters in the APP on your phone after you complete the Compass Calibration operations.

12.3 Speed Switch

Close-up of the remote controller's speed dial.

This drone comes with 3 speed modes (Low/Medium/High). Dial the wheel [Speed Wheel Icon] to the right to accelerate. Dial to the left to decelerate.

If the Speed Status Light on the transmitter is turned off, it means the drone is in low speed. If the light is turned on, it means the drone is in medium speed. If the light is blinking, it means the drone is set to high speed. (Medium Speed is the default setting!)

12.4 Emergency Stop

⚠️ The Emergency Stop function should only be used in case of emergency during the flight to avoid any damage or injury.

Press and hold the One Key Takeoff/Landing button [Takeoff/Landing Button Icon] for 2 seconds; the motors will stop immediately and the drone will fall directly.

12.5 Trimmer Function (Trim under NO GPS Mode)

F/B Sideways Drift Trim: If the drone drifts forward, hold down the Trimmer button [Trimmer Button Icon] and do not release it while pushing the direction joystick down to balance the drone. If the drone drifts backwards, hold down the Trimmer button and do not release it while pushing the direction joystick up to balance the drone.

L/R Sideways Dip Trim: If the drone drifts left, hold down the Trimmer button [Trimmer Button Icon] and do not release it while pushing the direction joystick right to balance the drone. If the drone drifts right, hold down the Trimmer button and do not release it while pushing the direction joystick left to balance the drone.

12.6 Headless Mode

1. Press the Headless Mode button [Headless Button Icon] on the transmitter. A beep will be heard from the transmitter, and the Headless Mode Indicator on the transmitter lights up, indicating that the drone enters Headless Mode.

2. Press the Headless Mode button [Headless Button Icon] again, and you will hear one long beep; the Headless Mode Indicator on the transmitter is off, which indicates the drone exits the Headless Mode.

Diagram showing three views of a drone labeled 'HEAD' and 'TAIL'. Below, a diagram shows a pilot's perspective relative to the drone's orientation. Arrows indicate forward/backward and left/right movement relative to the pilot, not the drone's head. Red crosses (❌) indicate incorrect pilot orientation.

Please make sure the pilot stays facing the same direction that the drone head faces at take-off.

While in Headless Mode, pushing the direction joystick forward will make it fly in the direction that the head of the drone faces when it takes off. To make sure the pilot can tell the drone's direction during flight, we recommend that the pilot stays facing the same direction that the drone head faces at take-off. By doing so, it is ensured that when the pilot pushes the direction joystick forward/backward, the drone will fly forward/backward toward him/her. If the pilot moves the direction joystick left/right, the drone will move left/right relative to the pilot.
