Workflow
-
Turn on the drone and allow it to start its internal systems. Once the Hercules startup sequence is complete, turn on the SAP by removing the red “remove before flight” tag.
-
Turn on the parachute remote control and wait for the parachute system to initialize.
-
If the SAP LED is blue, and the controller is in IDLE mode, the parachute system is ready. The drone can take off.
-
Once airborne, both the controller and the SAP will emit a BEEP indicating that the system status is armed. The SAP LED turns solid green, and the controller displays a green message on the screen: “armed.”
-
Perform the mission you have planned with the Hercules drone.
-
Once the mission is completed, the system will automatically detect the drone's landing and will disarm automatically. The LED will turn solid blue again, and two BEEPs will sound, indicating that it is ready for a new mission.
