DEC to change the value and press START/ENTER to confirm your setting. For the H920 Plus battery, it is recommended to set 4A (no more than 8A). For ProAction™ battery, it is recommended to set 2A (no more than 3A).
CHARGING THE ST16’S LI-ION BATTERY The ST16 battery is charged by using the supplied USB cable and inserting it into the USB port in the charger. It will take approximately five (5) hours to charge a fully discharged (not over-discharged) battery. NOTICE: To check the charge status of the ST16, simply tap the screen 2 times.
ASSEMBLING THE H920 Plus INSTALLING THE MOTOR ARMS Fold the motor arms upwards and secure them using the straight knurled nut cover located on the motor arms. NOTICE: Do not over tighten the straight knurled nuts; It may cause deformation of the carbon-fiber arms.

(mode 2) is moved by the pilot, regardless of the direction in which the nose is pointing. So if you move the stick to the right, the H920 Plus will also move to the right regardless of the position of the nose, even if it is in the middle of turning. The mode can also be useful to pilots who have lost their bearings when flying in Angle Mode.
ANGLE MODE If the Flight Mode selection switch is in the centre position, then the H920 Plus is in Angle Mode. Angle Mode is designed for pilots with a little experience (those who have already mastered Smart Mode), because in this mode the H920 Plus moves in line with the joystick, in the direction in which the nose is pointed.
When the Flight Mode selection switch is in the bottom position, H920 PLUS will be in Home (also known as Return to Home) Mode. In Home Mode, the GPS connectivity will in a straight line, return the H920 PLUS in the direction of the ST16’s current location, and automatically land within 4-8m/13-26’ of the pilot and ST16 Ground Station.
