The RoboMaster S1’s gimbal uses two-axis stabilization.

No. The component or cables may be damaged during disassembly.

The controllable range of the tilt axis is -20° to +35°, and the controllable range of the pan axis is ±250°.

If issues occur, power off the product and check if the gimbal and other modules are mounted in place and cables are attached correctly. Also, check to make sure the gimbal can rotate smoothly without any foreign objects blocking it.

Do not mount other objects on the gimbal or apply external force to it for extended durations; otherwise, the motor may emit heat abnormally, triggering the gimbal protection mechanism and affecting usage. Also, try to avoid lifting up or adjusting the Blaster by hand. This operation may result in damage to the gimbal’s structure.

Only mobile devices with gyroscopes are supported.

A narrow-angle infrared transmitter is mounted on the front side of the Blaster, and a wide-angle infrared transmitter and an infrared receiver are mounted on both sides of the gimbal.

In order to get a better experience when using infrared beams or other infrared functions, it is recommended to operate indoors and/or in environments with low infrared light intensity.

In indoor lighting environments, the effective emission range of the narrow-angle infrared sensors is 6 meters, the effective angle is within the range of 40° to 10°, and the effective angle decreases when the distance increases. The wide-angle infrared emission can reach 360° within the range of three meters.
Note: When using outdoors or in environments with strong infrared light, the infrared sensor may be affected, and the performance may be weakened. It is recommended to use the infrared functions indoors.

HP will be deducted when the infrared beams transmitted by an S1 strike the intelligent sensing armor on another S1.

The gel bead container can hold approximately 430 gel beads.

The S1 supports two shooting methods: gel beads and infrared beams. The shooting mode is set to “Infrared Beam” by default, and it can be changed by going to “Settings”, “Control”, and “Firing Mode”.

Yes, there is a gearbox inside the Blaster, and there is noise generated when the gear rotates.

It is recommended that the Blaster be cleaned after each use. Make sure there are no remaining gel beads in the Blaster and wipe off any moisture on the surface.

It is not recommended to use the Blaster without gel beads.

The Cooldown button can be used when shooting the infrared beam or gel beads in the Challenge mode under SOLO mode or Battle mode.
