Installation Preparation
DO NOT use the transmission module and camera module exposed to prevent from accidentally touching and causing burns. To avoid abnormal performance caused by overheating, make sure to mount the product in the aircraft with good ventilation and heat dissipation.
Installation and Connection
When installing, tighten the screws with appropriate force to avoid screw stripping or product damage.
1. Use the proper screws to tighten the transmission module. 2. Use the proper screws to tighten the camera module and secure the camera coaxial cable. 3. Secure the antenna. To obtain the optimal transmission, keep the antenna away from any
metal or carbon fiber structures, and more than 5 cm from the transmission module or camera module. Make sure that the antenna is not blocked by any frame structures. 4. Make sure to follow the wiring sequence instructions when connecting the 3-in-1 cable to your flight controller properly.

Activation
Power on the transmission module. Connect the air unit to a computer using the USB-C port, and run DJI ASSISTANTTM 2 (Consumer Drones Series) for activation.
Firmware Update
Use DJI Assistant 2 (Consumer Drones Series) to update the air unit, the goggles, and the remote controller separately. Restart each device after the firmware updates are complete.
Linking
The linking steps are based on the model of the goggles used. This manual uses DJI Goggles 3 as an example. 1. Make sure the distance between the devices is within 0.5 m. 2. Power on the air unit, the goggles, and the remote controller. Push the 5D button on the
goggles to open the goggles menu, select Status, and then Switch to select O4 Air Unit. 3. Press the link button of the air unit and the goggles respectively. The linking status indicator
of the air unit blinks red and the goggles start to beep continually. 4. Once linking is successful, the linking status indicator of the air unit turns solid green. The
goggles stop beeping and the live view will be displayed. 5. Press the link button of the goggles. Press and hold the power button of the remote
controller. The goggles start to beep continually. The remote controller starts to beep continually and the battery level LEDs blink in sequence. 6. Once linking is successful, the goggles stop beeping and the live view will be displayed. The
3

remote controller stops beeping.
