The following diagram illustrates the major components of the Golden Eagle:

The TAC has a mirrored set of left/right buttons, controls, and ports on the front and rear panels and

along the narrow top panel. The left and right-hand sets on the front panel each include a joystick, a 4-

position switch, and a momentary button. The left and right-hand sets on the rear panel each include

two momentary buttons. e top panel includes a left and right-hand momentary button, each protected

with a spring-loaded flip-guard door to prevent accidental actuation. These controls are use-

programmable. The out-of-the-box default programmed functions shown here:

The top panel includes a left and right-hand

momentary button, each protected with a

spring-loaded flip-guard door to prevent

accidental actuation.

The default (and recommended) function for

the left top button arms the drone, which

automatically starts the motors.

The default (and recommended) function for

the right top button disarms the drone (also

known as the Emergency Stop (E-stop)), which

automatically kills the motor electrical

connections.

The arm and disarm/E-Stop functions are also

found in a confirmation window on the TAC.

WARNING!

Disarming the Golden Eagle while in

flight will cause it to free-fall,

possibly causing property damage,

air vehicle damage, and/or serious

injury or death to people or objects

below.

Please refer to the TAC CONTROLS OVERVIEW

screen for joystick/button locations.

THROTTLE UP / ASCEND

To ascend, move the left joystick straight up.

The farther the joystick is moved from its

centered position, the faster the drone ascends

in its fixed vertical axis.

THROTTLE DOWN / DESCEND

To descend, move the left joystick straight

down.

YAW LEFT / CCW

To rotate the drone counterclockwise (CCW)

around its vertical axis, move the left joystick to

the left.

YAW RIGHT / CW

To rotate the drone clockwise (CW) around its

vertical axis, move the left joystick to the right.

PITCH FORWARD

To accelerate in a forward direction, move the

right joystick up.

PITCH BACK

To accelerate in a reverse direction, move the

right joystick down.

ROLL LEFT

To roll the vehicle toward the left, move the

right joystick left.

ROLL RIGHT

To roll the vehicle toward the right, move the

right joystick right.

ESTIMATED TIME: 75-95 Minutes

•Getting Started: Teal Golden Eagle

Drone

•TAC Hardware: Teal Golden Eagle

•Linking Components: Teal Eagle Drone

Both the Golden Eagle sUAS and the Teal Air

Control (TAC) ground station each require one

Teal Performance Battery Pack.

Each battery pack must be charged on the Teal

Battery Charger before commencing any flight.

NOTE: Battery packs are shipped

from the factory in a “shipping mode”

and will not charge in this state. Tap

the Power Button once, then connect

the battery pack to the charger.

Battery packs fully charge in 65 minutes, and

charge from 10% to 80% in 35 minutes if

immediately needed. Battery packs that have

been exposed to low temperatures (32 °F (0 °C)

or lower) for more than one hour must be pre-

heated on the charger before flight. The

amount of time this takes will vary upon the

starting temperature of the battery pack.

The battery may be removed from the charger

at any time.

The Charger Power Supply may be operated

from AC voltages ranging from 100-240 VAC.

The removeable AC cord can be replaced with

an appropriate cord for that particular region.

NOTE: A battery pack that is not

connected to either a Golden Eagle

or a TAC will shut itself off after

three (3) seconds after an attempt

to power itself on. This is normal

behavior.

WARNING!

If improperly stored, lithium-ion

batteries such as the Teal

Performance Battery Pack may

become unstable, overheat,

damage cells, and potentially catch

on fire.

Store batteries between

-4 °F to 113 °F (-20 °C to 45 °C).

Do not keep batteries in hot

vehicles!

CAUTION!

Remove the battery pack from the

charger once it is fully charged to

prevent damage from prolonged

heating.

Charge within the limits of 32 °F to

113 °F (0 °C to 45 °C). Do not

operate charger in direct sunlight

to avoid exceeding temperature

limits.

Unplug the charger power supply

when not in use to prevent

unnecessary heating and wear on

electrical components.

Always power down the Golden

Eagle and TAC before removing

and replacing battery packs.

CHARGING INSTRUCTIONS

Insert the DC charger power cable into the charger.

Plug the AC power cord into an AC outlet. The green LED is illuminated when power is applied.

Tap the power button once. This activates the battery and it can now be charged.

Insert the battery pack onto the charger, fully engaging the side latches with the charger.

The battery pack is at 100% charge when all five (5) LEDs are lit.

Remove the battery pack from the charger by pulling back the two (2) side latch release buttons and

then pull the battery pack vertically off the charger.
