After doing a quick read of the manual, these are my notes and comments......

Sport Mode Braking Distances
  • The maximum speed and braking distance of the aircraft significantly increase in Sport mode. A minimum braking distance of 30 m is required in windless conditions.
  • Descent speed significantly increases in Sport mode. A minimum braking distance of 10 m is required in windless conditions (watch out for this one you don't want to smash your MA2 into the ground)
No mention on how to update the Home Point, such would be valid if the controller's position had changed (boat, car, bike) since takeoff.

"It is recommended to discharge the Intelligent Flight Batteries to 30% or lower. This can be done by flying the aircraft outdoors until there is less than 30% charge left."

Transmission signal radiates from top of phone holder/antenna. Point the two phone holder rods at the MA2 for optimal signal strength.

Includes the Fly app manual as well.

CAUTION: Pressing both joysticks to the bottom inner or outer corners (typical motor startup command) will STOP the motors in mid-flight.

- Parallel (no obstacle avoidance for all modes): 12 m/s (26.8 mph) when in Normal and Tripod and 19 m/s in Sport mode.​
