4. Tatūnga
Follow these steps to prepare your Mobula7 drone for its first flight.
4.1 Hononga Pūhiko
- Ensure the drone's power switch (if present) is in the OFF position.
- Connect a fully charged 1S LiPo battery (450mAh, 550mAh, or 650mAh recommended) to the drone's battery connector. Ensure correct polarity.
- Secure the battery in the designated battery tray or strap.
4.2 ExpressLRS Receiver Binding
The Mobula7 features a built-in SPI ExpressLRS 2.4GHz receiver. To bind it with your ExpressLRS compatible radio transmitter:
- Power on the Mobula7 drone by connecting the battery. The receiver's LED should start flashing slowly.
- Power cycle the drone three times rapidly (connect battery, disconnect, connect, disconnect, connect). After the third connection, the receiver LED should flash rapidly, indicating it is in binding mode.
- On your ExpressLRS compatible radio transmitter, navigate to the ExpressLRS LUA script or menu and select the 'BIND' option.
- Once bound, the receiver LED on the drone will turn solid, indicating a successful connection.
- If binding fails, ensure your transmitter's ExpressLRS firmware version is compatible with the drone's receiver (v3.0 or newer recommended).
4.3 Betaflight Configuration (Advanced Users)
The drone comes pre-configured with Betaflight firmware CRAZYBEEF4SX1280 4.5.1. For advanced settings or troubleshooting, you can connect to Betaflight Configurator:
- Download and install the latest Betaflight Configurator software on your computer.
- Connect the drone to your computer using a USB-C cable.
- Open Betaflight Configurator and click 'Connect'.
- You can now adjust PID settings, rates, OSD elements, and other advanced parameters. Tupato: Modifying settings without proper knowledge can lead to unstable flight or damage.

5. Nga Tohutohu Whakahaere
This section provides guidance on safely operating your Mobula7 drone.
5.1 Takitaki i mua i te Rererangi
- Me whakarite kei te mau te hononga o ngā poroporo, ā, kāore he pakaru.
- Me manatoko kua kī katoa te pākahiko, ā, kua mau te tāutanga.
- Check for any loose wires or components.
- Confirm your radio transmitter is powered on and bound to the drone.
- Perform a range check in a safe area before flying.
5.2 Te mau patu me te Whakakore
The drone's motors will not spin until it is armed. Arming and disarming procedures are typically configured in Betaflight:
- Te patu: Move the arming switch on your transmitter to the designated arm position. The motors will typically spin slowly, indicating readiness for flight.
- Whakakorea: Move the arming switch back to the disarm position. The motors will stop spinning. In an emergency, you can also disarm by moving the throttle to zero and yawing hard left or right (check your Betaflight configuration for specific emergency disarm gestures).
5.3 Nga Mana Rererangi Taketake
Familiarize yourself with standard quadcopter controls:
- Puta: Controls altitude (left stick up/down for Mode 2).
- yaw: Rotates the drone horizontally (left stick left/right for Mode 2).
- Piki: Tilts the drone forward/backward (right stick up/down for Mode 2).
- Rere: Tilts the drone left/right (right stick left/right for Mode 2).
5.4 HDZero VTX Operation
The integrated HDZero VTX transmits video to your HDZero compatible goggles. Refer to your HDZero goggles manual for channel scanning and selection. The VTX settings (power, channel) can typically be adjusted via Betaflight OSD (On-Screen Display) menu using your transmitter sticks or through Betaflight Configurator.

6. Tiaki
Ko te tiaki i nga wa katoa ka mau te roa me te mahi tino pai o to drone.
6.1 Whakakapinga Pourewa
Ka pā kino pea ngā poroporo kua pakaru ki te mahi rere me te haumaru. Whakakapia tonutia mēnā kua piko, kua pakaru, kua marere rānei.
- Use the provided propeller disassembly tool to carefully remove the old propeller from the motor shaft.
- Ensure the new propeller is oriented correctly (clockwise or counter-clockwise rotation as indicated by markings or motor direction).
- Gently push the new propeller onto the motor shaft until it sits flush. Do not force it.
6.2 Te horoi
After flights, especially in dusty or grassy environments, clean your drone:
- Use a soft brush or compressed air to remove dust and debris from motors, flight controller, and camera.
- Avoid using liquids directly on electronic components.
6.3 Te Tiaki Motuka
Inspect motors for any signs of damage or excessive wear. Ensure they spin freely without obstruction. If a motor feels gritty or makes unusual noises, it may require replacement.
6.4 Whakahoutanga Firmware
Periodically check the Happymodel website or relevant community forums for updated Betaflight or ExpressLRS firmware. Updating firmware can introduce new features, improve performance, or fix bugs. Follow official update guides carefully.

7.2 No Video Signal (HDZero)
- Hototahitanga o te Mataara: Ensure your goggles are HDZero compatible and powered on.
- Channel Match: Verify that your goggles are tuned to the same channel as the drone's VTX.
- Tirohanga Antenna: Ensure the VTX antenna on the drone and the antennas on your goggles are securely attached.
- VTX Power: Check VTX power settings in Betaflight OSD or Configurator.
7.3 Drone Not Arming
- Transmitter Link: Confirm your radio transmitter is powered on and successfully bound to the drone (solid receiver LED).
- Arming Switch: Ensure the arming switch on your transmitter is correctly configured and activated.
- Safety Pre-checks: Betaflight has safety checks. Connect to Betaflight Configurator and check the 'Setup' tab for any warnings (e.g., accelerometer calibration needed, low battery voltage, motor output issues).
- Throttle Position: Ensure your throttle stick is at its lowest position.
7.4 Rere Kore-Pūmau / Rere-ā-Pūmau
- Propeller Damage: Inspect all propellers for damage and replace any that are bent, cracked, or chipped.
- Nga take motuka: Check motors for debris, loose wires, or signs of damage. Ensure they spin smoothly.
- Accelerometer Calibration: In Betaflight Configurator, perform an accelerometer calibration on a level surface.
- PID Tuning: For advanced users, minor PID adjustments in Betaflight may be necessary, though the factory tune is generally suitable.
