Shark X6 Multi-Rotor Flight Control and Autopilot System w/GPS
166 g
Description
The Shark X6 multi-rotor control and autopilot system has been designed from the outset to cater for the ever-increasing demands of the multi-rotor enthusiast.
The feature-packed Shark X6 is a highly integrated and compact design that provides superb flight performance.
Equipped with a 3-axis gyro,3-axis accelerometer, barometer and complete with a GPS module using advance attitude stabilization algorithms, the system provides complete failsafe protection for your multi-rotor including return to home, low voltage protection and auto landing.
To make life easier for newcomers and when flying at a distance the Shark X6 features Intelligent Orientation Control (IOC) which, like the better known "headless" mode, allows you to accurately control your multi-rotor even when you're not able to see which way it's facing. This is done by linking the orientation of the model to the handset when IOC mode is activated, so that (for example) left is always left relative to the handset, whatever way the model is facing.
In reality, this means that if you want the model to go to your left as you look at it, you simply move the stick to your left. The same applies to right/forward/backwards etc.
The Shark X6 has the ability to create user-defined, geo-fenced flight zones so that you can restrict flight to a chosen area, or exclude a particular area from the permitted flight plan. This is becoming an increasingly important flight safety function, particularly when operating multi-rotors near to built-up areas.
Integrated failsafe functions offer peace of mind in the unlikely event of signal loss enabling you to choose between return to home, auto-landing or position hold when the failsafe is activated. Failsafe is selected via the assistant software. Default value is defined as Return to Home.
All things considered, the Shark X6 provides a great all-in flight controller for those wishing to take their multi-rotor experience to the next level and beyond.
