2. Remote Control Power On

   Press and hold the power button on the remote control to turn it on. The indicator lights will illuminate.

3. Geomagnetic Calibration

   Perform geomagnetic calibration to ensure accurate flight. Hold the drone horizontally and rotate it twice. Then, hold it vertically and rotate it twice. The drone's lights will indicate successful calibration.

4. Horizontal Calibration

   Place the drone on a flat, level surface for horizontal calibration. Do not move the drone during this process.

5. Satellite Search (GPS Lock)

   Ensure the drone is in an open outdoor area. The drone will search for GPS satellites. Wait until a sufficient number of satellites are acquired for stable GPS positioning (indicated on the app).

6. Propeller Installation (if not pre-installed)

   Attach the propellers according to the markings (A and B) on the propellers and motor arms. Use the provided screwdriver to secure them firmly.

Operating Instructions

Basic Flight Controls

• One Key Start/Landing: Press the dedicated button on the remote or in the app for automatic take-off or landing.
• Altitude Hold: The drone maintains a stable altitude, making it easier to control horizontal movement.
• 3 Speeds Adjustment: Adjust flight speed for different environments and skill levels.

Advanced Flight Modes and Features

• 4K Camera and Optical Flow Positioning: The 110° wide-angle, 90° adjustable 4K camera captures high-resolution photos and videos. Optical Flow positioning enhances stability, especially indoors or at low altitudes.
