Safety Guidelines

Flight Environment

This product must be flown in areas where general flight is legally permitted. Restrictions apply:

• When the 'OmniTerrain' indicator is off, the product relies on its visual positioning system. Use in altitudes between 0.5 and 15 meters (1.6 to 49.2 feet) with sufficient ground texture.
• Flying in low-light conditions (<15 lux) is prohibited as the visual positioning system may fail.
• Exercise caution with unclear ground patterns, monochrome surfaces, water, highly reflective surfaces, areas with changing lighting, very dark or bright surfaces, and areas with moving objects.
• Keep visual sensors at the bottom clean and unobstructed.
• Avoid operating in areas with significant elevation changes (e.g., flying out of windows).
• Do not use in extreme weather conditions (strong winds exceeding level 5, snow, rain, heavy fog, gales, hail, lightning, tornadoes, typhoons).
• Do not use below -10°C (14°F) or above 40°C (104°F).
• Do not operate in no-fly zones.
• Flight performance may be affected above 2500m (8202 feet) due to reduced air density. Do not fly above 5500m (18,044 feet).
• When taking off in dusty areas (deserts, beaches), operate carefully to prevent particles from entering the body.
• Do not take off from moving objects (vehicles, boats).

Wireless Communication

Ensure flight in open areas without obstacles to avoid interference with satellite positioning and compass signals from buildings, mountains, or forests. Do not fly near areas with magnetic or radio interference (Wi-Fi hotspots, Bluetooth devices, high-voltage power lines, radar stations, mobile base stations, broadcast towers). Interference may cause malfunction or loss of control.

Pre-Flight Checklist

Ensure you understand all functions, flight requirements, and relevant government regulations before use:

1. Confirm the product is fully charged before flight.
2. Inspect the flying camera body and accessories (frame, motors, battery, propellers, gimbal) for proper function.
3. Ensure product firmware and the Hover X1 App are updated to the latest versions.
4. Read product manuals such as the "Disclaimer and Safety Manual," "Quick Start Guide," and "Battery Safety Manual."
5. Set lost connection return behavior ([Hover] or [Return to Home]) in the Hover App. If connection is lost, the camera will automatically return or hover based on settings.
6. If a malfunction occurs, the status indicator will show a steady yellow light, and the screen will display error information (e.g., "Compass error. Please calibrate the IMU using the app.").

Pre-flight / Post-flight Check:

1. Ensure the smart battery and propellers are properly installed and secure.
2. Ensure the flying camera has enough battery.
3. Ensure the flying camera's motors and gimbal are functioning properly.
