If prefered, the pre-arming twitches can be disabled by selecting “Allow Fast Arming?” option in the “Advanced
Multirotor” stick menu, or under “Other Advanced Settings” on the Flight Controller tab in the software.
“Allow Fast Arming” is enabled by default when the High Perf Mini Quad airframe type is selected.
The propellers will spin when the multirotor is armed. Do not arm your multirotor with propellers
attached until you’ve verified that motor direction, propeller direction, motor order, idle throttle and
other settings are correct! Make sure you don’t inadvertently move the stick(s) to the arm corner!
For multirotor airframe types other than “High Perf Mini Quadmultirotor is disarmed by moving the throttle
stick to the off position, and holding the rudder stick in the leftmost position for 1 second. For Mode 2 radios,
this is done by holding the left stick in the lower left-hand corner (the DISARM corner) for approximately 1
second.
For High Perf Mini Quad airframe type, the disarm gesture is disabled, and the multirotor must be
disarmed via the kill switch.
The figure below refers to the left stick of Mode 2 radios:
Don’t disarm your multirotor while flying unless there’s an emergency! If you do, the propellers will not
spin until you rearm it as described above.
6.12.4.2 Issues that will prevent arming
Here are some conditions that will prevent the multirotor from arming, for safety reasons. An error message
will appear in the OSD notification area if these conditions are detected (see the section 14 Notification
Messages for more information).
Arming in a GPS mode (including RTH Test mode), unless you have set the “Allow arming in GPS
Mode?” menu item to “Yes” in the Advanced Multirotorstick menu. See section 6.11.1 Flight Mode
Description if you are uncertain about which modes require a GPS.
Arming in a leveling mode (2D, 2D with Hold, Cartesian, etc.) if the multirotor is not level. Note that the
multirotor can be armed in 3D mode if it is not level!
Arming if the multirotor is not completely still.
Throttling up if the low battery auto-land feature has been triggered (the multirotor will arm in this
condition).
Arming if a controller error was detected during MicroVector boot-up.
Arming if the MicroVector has not been fully configured.
Arming if USB is connected.
