Arming With Remote ID

This page describes the best practice for arming your drone with Remote ID integrated.

  1. Power on the controller and close out all open Apps by clicking the square icon and swiping the open Apps to the left.

  2. Power on the drone.

  3. As the drone is booting up, open the Herelink Settings application (the green gear icon on the Herelink controller home screen) and navigate to the Remote ID tab.

  4. Open QGC and let the vehicle parameters fully load. At this point, if you have >10 satellites, you may hear the tone that indicates your GPS signal is locked and you are clear to arm the drone and fly.

  5. If that does not happen, navigate back to the Herelink Settings Remote ID tab and check that Ready to Arm says Yes, and Remote ID Device Detected says True.

  6. Operator - Operator ID - CAA value: Leave this field BLANK.

  7. Flight Area Description Text value: Leave this field BLANK.

  8. Floor, Ceiling, Radius: Leave all three fields set to ZERO.

  9. After confirming these settings, and the data appears to be actively updating, navigate back to QGC.

At this point you should hear the tone that indicates GPS lock.

If, after a minute or two, this does not happen, you may need to power down the drone and reboot the hand controller and start the sequence from the beginning.
