30.2 Basic mode
> The basic mode is designed specifically for users who are new to flying multirotor
systems and those who look for intuitive controls for aerial photography.
> The controls respond less aggressively. This behaviour is intentional, allowing pilots to
get a first feeling of how the »NovaX 350 responds to lever input.
> AUTO-LEVELLING is enabled. It means that if the pilot lets go of the aileron and
elevator control stick, the »NovaX 350 regains a relative horizontal level position. Small
drifts in any direction are normal, especially during not fully calm conditions.

> We recommend this mode when you intend to use a camera or FPV equipment. Motor
power is restricted for smoother operation and less aggressive behaviour, which is
beneficial to scenery capture.

30.3 Altitude mode
The altitude mode (mid-stick mode) holds the »NovaX 350 at a desired altitude. Use the
mode as following:
1. Activate the Basic mode.
2. Lift the »NovaX 350 up to the desired altitude. Move the throttle towards its centre
mode as following:
1. Activate the Basic mode.
2. Lift the »NovaX 350 up to the desired altitude. Move the throttle towards its centre
position.
3. Activate the Altitude mode on your transmitter.
4. The »NovaX 350 now hovers at and holds the set altitude without further adjustments. It is

possible to use rudder, aileron and elevator.
5. Set a new altitude via throttle input. Move the throttle stick back to the centre position
to hold the new altitude.
6. Change flight modes to deactivate the Altitude mode.
30.4 GPS mode
In the GPS mode the »NovaX 350 holds a set position (x, y, and z-axis). As opposed to
the Altitude mode there is no need for you to control the x- and y-axis. The GPS function
controls and makes adjustments to all three axes.
Use the mode as following:
1. Activate the BASIC mode.
2. Lift the »NovaX 350 up to the desired altitude and position it. Move the throttle towards

2. Lift the »NovaX 350 up to the desired altitude and position it. Move the throttle towards
its centre position.
3. Activate the GPS mode on your transmitter.
4. The »NovaX 350 now holds the position (and altitude).
5. Correct the position as desired.
6. Change flight modes to deactivate the GPS mode.
The GPS signal strength is indicated by the front and rear LED. Depending on the GPS
signal strength the solid LED is interrupted by distinct blink patterns, which are summarized
in [ Fig. 16 ].
