2. Safety Guidelines

Adhering to these safety guidelines is crucial for preventing accidents and ensuring the longevity of your drone:

  • Pre-Flight Check: Always ensure all components are securely attached and batteries are fully charged before each flight.
  • Environmental Conditions: Fly in open areas away from obstacles, people, and animals. Avoid flying in strong winds (Level-5 wind resistance is supported, but extreme conditions should be avoided) or adverse weather conditions.
  • GPS Signal: For outdoor flights, ensure a strong GPS signal (over 6 satellites) before takeoff. Perform geomagnetic and gyro calibration as instructed. For indoor flights, turn off GPS.
  • Obstacle Avoidance: The drone features 360° obstacle avoidance. While this provides protection, always maintain visual line of sight and be prepared to take manual control.

  4. Power On Drone: Long press the power switch on the drone to turn it on. The lights will begin flashing.
  5. Power On Remote: Turn on the remote control switch. The remote will beep, indicating successful frequency matching with the drone.
  6. Place on Level Ground: Place the drone on a flat, level surface. Allow 1-2 minutes for automatic frequency synchronization.

4.2 Calibration

Calibration is essential for stable flight. Ensure both gyroscope and geomagnetic calibrations are completed before flying, especially outdoors.

  1. Gyroscope Calibration: Press the gyroscope calibration button on the remote control. The drone's lights will flash continuously and then become constant, indicating successful calibration.
  2. Geomagnetic Calibration: Press the geomagnetic calibration button on the remote. Pick up the drone and perform a clockwise horizontal rotation until it beeps, then perform a vertical rotation until it beeps again. The front and rear lights will remain on, indicating successful geomagnetic calibration.

  2. Connect Wi-Fi: Open your phone's Wi-Fi settings and search for the drone's Wi-Fi network, which typically starts with "VS-GPS-". Connect to this network.
  3. Open App: Open the VS GPS PRO app. Ensure the remote control antenna is extended to maintain optimal signal strength and control distance.
  4. GPS Signal Check: Within the app, verify that the GPS signal indicates 15 or more satellites before attempting to fly.

5. Operating Instructions

5.1 Drone Unlocking

To unlock the drone's motors, simultaneously move both joysticks on the remote control outwards and downwards (unlocking in eight directions). The propellers will begin to spin slowly.

5.2 Takeoff and Landing
