    AirDog FAQ

    Is Airleash(controller) Water Proof ?

    Yes. AirLeash is IP67 dust and water-resistant. Number 6 meaning totally protected against dust, 7

  • Protected against the effect of immersion between 15cm and 1m.

    *IP 67 (‘Ingress Protection’). IP number is used to specify the environmental protection of enclosures around electronic equipment.

    What are different flight modes of Airdog ?

    AirDog  comes with many tailored-made Flight Modes for different kind of action and adventure sports. Every sport features a Follow Mode and Landing mode that is best suited for that particular sport. Mainly Airdog comes with 5 modes as follows : Fixed follow, follow path, hover & aim, follow line, adaptive follow.

    Besides that it comes with  two landing modes: return to home and land on spot.

    More flight modes will be added more Sports with time through software and app updates.

    What happens when Airdog Runs out of battery ?

    When the drone battery runs out ,its battery monitoring system will calculate how much flight time the drone has left to return to the start point safely and go to start point. Landing modes can be initiated by AirDog when low battery level is reached or by user, manually sending command from AirLeash controller  to land the drone on the spot of your choice or at airleash point. Note that some flight modes do not allow AirDog to perform a “spot” landing .

    What happens to the drone if the airdog loses connection with the air leash controller due to some reason?

    If due to any unforeseen circumstances your air dog drone loses its connection with the air leash then , it will stop following you and start hovering in the sky at the point only for 4 minutes in which it will try to reestablish the connection with drone ,but if its unable to do so then it will check the landing mode setting of the drones ,so if the landing mode is set to SPOT then it will land at that point only but if the landing mode is set to HOME then it will go to the starting place and land their safely provided if it has that much battery left to go home (otherwise it will land where the battery is empty).

    moreover you can set you custom landing modes also if you like and if you have set a water sports in the settings then it comes with pre installed setting of landing mode on home only to avoid landing mode of spot which could destroy the drone when crashed landed in water after losing connection .

    If the connection is lost you may hear a beep tone on your airleash and blue led will turn off to alert you off its lost connection eventually .

    Verdict

    If you are action and adventure enthusiast and requires a drone that follows you in the most extreme conditions,climates and terrans then Airdog is for you as it can follow you in most of the environment including rough terrans ,elevation shifts etc and not to forget that it can easily be transported in your backpack without any problem.

    The camera of this drone is also awesome can gives you awesome pictures quality because its gopro guys and you know what gopro cameras are meant for “ action photography ” .To read an indepth review about its unboxing,working and more you can visit here or you can visit its official site 

    As we all know that its a first gen product from the company ,so their may be some flaws which may get updated in new drones like firmware update ,more battery power ,but still its a pretty solid drone with many awesome features like camera ,its compact and foldable design ,is one of the best asset it have .

    so the question arises when to use this drone ? ,if you have more than 1 drone other than this .well the answer to this is ,it totally depends on the mood and purpose of the trip i am planning ,if i am on a solo trip like cycling ,hiking, skiing, running and wants to capture some videos or photos then its no Brainer to not use AirDog. But if i trying to capture some slow-mo, landscape type shoots then i will use dji phantom 4 or other good quality drones

    But if i have a good drone pilot who can capture more awesome and realistic shoots from the drones ,then i will take his choice ,and also Airdog action drone would be my choice for longer distance and Phantom, series for shorter Distances
