Naza Controller from DJI

NAZA is a lightweight multi-axis control platform specially designed for aeromodel hobbyists. It is a smalled all-in-one module. It has D-Bus support, upgrade support, and extendible port.

Different from WKM for heavy payloads and aerophotography, NAZA not only inherits outstanding flight stability of DJI products, but also provides excellent maneuverability, which gives hobbyists wonderful flight experience.

NAZA simplifies installation and saves space and weight. With the innovative All-in-One design, NAZA contains inner damping, controllers, 3-axis gyroscope, 3-axis gyroscope and barometer in its light and small Main Controller. NAZA can measure flying altitude, maintain and therefore can be used for autopilot/automatic driving.

Advanced mix guidance algorithm and control algorithm, inherits outstanding flight stability of DJI products, provides excellent maneuverability, gives hobbyists wonderful flight experience.

Naza-M offers three types of control modes : GPS Atti. Mode(with GPS module), Atti. Mode, Manual Mode. Customer can switching among the four mode to adjust different flight environment even in the specially weak GPS environment. Naza-M also can adjust automatically in the flight environment and intelligent switch between GPS Atti.mode and Atti. Mode to make sure the safety and security of flight.

Naza-M GPS will greatly enhance performance for entry AP with Position Hold, Return-To-Home and Intelligent Orientation Control. With GPS Module, the multirotors will have position and altitude lock in windy conditions. Precise hovering in less than 2.5m horizital and and 0.8m vertical.

If your transmitter supports Fail-Safe , then you can set Fail-Safe output of receiver to input port-U .Naza controller has built-in auto level Fail-Safe function. That means when the communication between MC and transmitter is disconnected, the outputs of all command sticks from controller will go to center point . If your transmitter has only 4 channels, then MC will work in Atti. Mode by default without Fail-Safe function.

 

In order to prevent your multi-rotor from crash or other harmful consequences caused by low battery voltage, we have designed two levels of low voltage protection. You can choose to not to use them, however we strongly recommend to open the protections!

Naza have four ways to start motor,see the following picture:

In any situation start the aircraft (include any motor disarm)Need to perform any of the ways of breaking rod. During the flight, the motor stall, the immediate implementation of any of the breaking lever start, the motor will now return to the rotation, and enhance the safety of the aircraft during the flight.

 

Immediately Mode: By using this mode, in any control mode, once motors start and throttle stick is over 10%, motors will stop immediately when throttle stick is back under 10% again. In this case, if you push the throttle stick over 10% in 5 seconds after motors stop, motors will re-start .If you don’t push throttle stick after motors start in three seconds, motors will stop automatically.

Intelligent Mode: By using this mode, different control mode has different way of stopping motors. In Manual Mode, only executing CSC can stop motors. In Atti Mode. any one of following four cases will stop motors:
a) You don’t push throttle stick after motors start in three seconds;
b) Executing CSC;
c) Throttle stick under 10%, and after landing 3 seconds.
d) The slope angle of multi-rotor is over 70°, and throttle stick under 10%.

 

NAZA support six different multi-rotor model, Meet the different needs of the enthusiasts.

 

The gimbal stabilization module is compatible with almost all 2-axis gimbal systems. The system will adjust the gimbal and camera according to the attitude of the helicopter after setting the parameters the first time.
