Impostare
1. Installazione dell'elica
Carefully attach the propellers to the corresponding motor shafts. Ensure they are securely fastened according to the markings (e.g., CW for clockwise, CCW for counter-clockwise) to prevent detachment during flight.
2. Ricarica e installazione della batteria
Before first use, fully charge the drone battery using the provided balance charger and Micro USB cable. Once charged, insert the battery into the drone's designated compartment, ensuring a secure connection.
3. Preparazione del telecomando
Install the required batteries (not always included, check packaging) into the remote controller. Power on the controller and ensure it pairs successfully with the drone before attempting flight.
4. Pre-Flight Checks and Calibration
Always perform pre-flight checks. This includes verifying propeller security, battery levels for both drone and remote, and checking for any physical damage. Calibrate the compass and other sensors as instructed in the quick start guide to ensure accurate navigation and stable flight. The elevated GPS and altimeter pod design enhances precision and reduces interference.
Utilizzo del drone
Controlli di volo di base
Familiarize yourself with the remote controller's joysticks and buttons. Practice basic maneuvers in an open, safe area away from obstacles, people, and animals. The drone features Auto-Landing for safe descent.
Payload Release (PL1-F)

The PL1-F payload release allows for precise deployment of fishing baits or lines. Attach the payload securely to the mechanism. Operate the release function via the remote controller when the drone is positioned over the desired drop zone. The drone can carry payloads up to 2kg.
Sky-Trolling Feature
The Sky-Trolling feature allows the drone to tow your fishing line to attract pelagic fish. For enhanced safety and line protection, consider using the optional TrollSafe release device, which automatically releases the line upon a strike. Adjust TrollSafe sensitivity based on fishing conditions.

Resistenza al vento
The drone's propulsion system and flight computer are optimized for flight in winds up to Beaufort Force 7. Always assess wind conditions before flight to ensure safe operation.
Anti-Pendulum Feature
When carrying a payload, drones may exhibit a pendulum motion. The Anti-Pendulum Feature on the Fisherman Drone reduces this effect by controlling acceleration and deceleration, leading to more stable payload delivery.
Design impermeabile
The SwellPro Fisherman Drone is designed to be waterproof, allowing for operation near and over water bodies. Ensure all seals and covers are properly secured before exposing the drone to water.
Manutenzione
Una manutenzione regolare garantisce la longevità e le prestazioni ottimali del tuo drone.
- Pulizia: After each use, especially in sandy or saltwater environments, thoroughly clean the drone. Pay close attention to motors, propeller mounts, and any crevices to remove sand, salt, or debris. Sand can cause wear and tear on moving parts.
- Cura della batteria: Store batteries in a cool, dry place. Do not overcharge or over-discharge. If storing for extended periods, charge to approximately 50% capacity.
- Ispezione dell'elica: Regularly inspect propellers for cracks, chips, or deformation. Replace damaged propellers immediately to maintain flight stability and safety.
- Ispezione generale: Periodically check all screws, connections, and structural components for looseness or damage.
Risoluzione dei problemi
Questa sezione affronta i problemi più comuni che potresti incontrare.
- Il drone non si accende: Ensure the battery is fully charged and correctly installed. Check for any visible damage to the battery or drone's power port.
- Il telecomando non si connette: Verify both the drone and remote controller are powered on. Ensure they are within range and attempt to re-pair them according to the quick start guide.
- Volo instabile/deriva: Perform a compass and IMU calibration. Check propellers for damage or incorrect installation. Ensure the drone is free of debris, especially sand, which can affect motor performance.
- Payload Release Malfunction: Check the connection of the PL1-F unit to the drone. Ensure no debris is obstructing the release mechanism.
- Problemi con il segnale GPS: Assicurati di essere in un'area aperta con una chiara view of the sky. Avoid flying near large metal structures or strong electromagnetic interference.
