5. Інструкцыя па эксплуатацыі
Once installed, the C04 Camera and VTX Module integrates with your Betaflight flight controller. Video transmission settings are typically configured via the Betaflight configurator software.
- Уключэнне: Power on your Cetus X quadcopter. The C04 module will receive power directly from the flight controller (5V supply voltagе).
- VTX Power Adjustment: The M04 VTX allows for adjustable output power (25mW, 100mW, 200mW, 350mW, 400mW). Refer to your Betaflight flight controller's documentation and the Betaflight configurator software for instructions on how to change VTX power levels and frequency channels.
- Выбар канала: The VTX supports 5 bands and 40 channels, including Raceband. Channel selection is typically done through the Betaflight OSD (On-Screen Display) or Betaflight configurator.
- Video Reception: Ensure your FPV goggles or monitor are set to the correct frequency and channel to receive the video feed from the C04 module.
6. Тэхнічнае абслугоўванне
Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your C04 Camera and VTX Module:
- Уборка: Keep the camera lens clean and free from dust, dirt, or debris. Use a soft, dry cloth or lens cleaning solution if necessary.
- Фізічная абарона: The module is a delicate electronic component. Avoid direct impacts, especially to the camera lens and antenna. While designed for FPV drones, repeated hard crashes can damage the unit.
- Цэласнасць злучэння: Periodically check the JST0.8 connector and antenna connection for secure fit. Loose connections can lead to intermittent video loss or reduced range.
- захоўванне: Store the module in a dry, cool environment away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures when not in use.
