Land the Spark without using the auto-land function consists in:
Force the spark to the ground keeping the left stickers down until drone drone shut off motors, the VPS read will go from some altitude (1m por example) to absolute 0 altitude - the drone will basicaly knows thats not possible to go down and shut off, the IMU will know that the drone cant descend more too. (If the drone will land on a hand, probably it will ignore the IMU and GPS data, as the hand will note be so stable as the ground and not on real 0 altitude, and the drone relies the entire land just on VPS).
So, think with me..
Spark use a infrared type VPS, it probably works like a laser tape, its a beam, not a wave like a ultrasonic sensor (spark its the first to use this, all others use ultrasonic), IR beam its much more concentrated on a small area, if theres something between the tape and the wall, the thing that are between both will be the distance read. So, if theres something between the drone and the ground, fog, bees, dirty, particles, the distance to the ground will be read from that thing and not the real ground.
If the VPS on Spark has wrong VPS data at 70m altitude, when the data need to be 0 , it tells other distance for that moment ( and it has! the flightlog dont lie!), with the wrong variation on altitude given by VPS infrared , the drone may think that are landing and forced trough the ground when its not! as i said before how it works, just imagine a wrong variation in altitude midflight at 70m altitude given by VPS from "16m" (wrong) to "0".
The drone will Turn off thinking it was landed or starting the auto land process.
Its just a theory. |
