Safe Flight Guidelines

Recommended Flight Conditions:

• Fly in a wide-open area.
• Maintain line of sight.
• Fly below 120 meters.
• Ensure strong GPS signals.

Avoid Flying Near: Crowds, trees, high-voltage power lines, buildings, airports, water bodies, or high-intensity power stations, as these can affect the compass.

Adverse Weather: Strictly prohibited in rain, snow, fog, or when wind speed exceeds 10 m/s (22 mph).

Prohibited Areas: Do not fly in areas where flight is not permitted.

Safety: Keep clear of rotating propellers and motors. Read safety guidelines carefully before flying.

Preparation Before Takeoff

Frequency Pairing:

1. Charge the drone battery. Press and hold the drone's power switch for over 3 seconds. The drone will emit a sound, and its front/rear tripod lights will change from fast to slow flashing.
2. Turn on the remote control. You will hear two "DI" sounds, and the remote control indicator light will turn on. The drone's front tripod light will illuminate, and the rear tripod light will flash slowly, indicating successful pairing.

Geomagnetic Calibration:

1. Short press the geomagnetic calibration button. The remote control will emit two "Di" sounds, and the drone's front and rear tripod lights will flash regularly.
2. Hold the drone horizontally and rotate it clockwise three times. The remote control will emit a "di" sound. The green front light and red rear light will flash slowly, indicating successful horizontal calibration.
3. Lift the drone vertically and rotate it clockwise three times. The remote control will emit a "di" sound. The green front light will be solid, and the red rear light will flash, indicating successful vertical calibration.

Gyroscope Correction:

1. Short press the gyroscope correction button. The remote control will emit a "Di" sound, and the drone's front and rear lights will flash rapidly. The front light will then stay on, and the remote control will emit a "Di" sound, indicating successful correction.

Outdoor Takeoff:

1. Star Search: After completing the above operations, the drone automatically searches for GPS signals. When at least 6 satellites are acquired, the rear lights will stay on, and the remote control will emit a "di" sound, indicating successful star search.
2. Unlock: Perform the external eight-unlock sequence on the remote control. The drone motors will start rotating, indicating successful unlocking for normal flight. If front and rear lights flash alternately, the location has signal interference; move to an open area like a rooftop, plaza, beach, or riverside.

Indoor Takeoff:

1. After the above operations, long press the 'GPS' button on the remote control to disable GPS. The remote control display will show 'OFF'.
2. Briefly press the gyroscope calibration button. After calibration, perform the external eight-unlock sequence. The drone motors will start rotating, indicating successful unlocking.

Landing

Descending: Control the drone's descent using the left joystick.

Function Introduction

Joystick Controls:

• Left Joystick (Throttle): Controls altitude (up/down) and yaw (left/right rotation).
  • Up: Ascend
  • Down: Descend
  • Left: Yaw left
  • Right: Yaw right
• Right Joystick: Controls flight direction (forward, backward, left, right).
  • Forward: Move forward
  • Backward: Move backward
  • Left: Strafe left
  • Right: Strafe right

GPS Positioning

• After successful frequency pairing in an open area, the remote control will emit a "Di" sound in 30-60 seconds, and the drone's front and rear lights will illuminate, indicating successful positioning.
• If the drone's front and rear lights flash alternately, there is signal interference. Move to an open area.
• Long press the "GPS Switch" button to turn off GPS mode. The GPS display will show "OFF".

One-Key Return

Active Return: Press the one-key return button. The remote control will emit alarm sounds "Di" and "Di", and the drone will return to the takeoff point for landing. The alarm sound will stop after 20 seconds upon completion.

Automatic Return:

• First Low Voltage: Drone lights flash slowly. The drone automatically returns to the takeoff point (within 1000m radius) and lands at approximately 3 meters altitude. Flight time is about 1-2 minutes.
• Secondary Low Voltage: If the drone is below 15m altitude, it will automatically ascend to 15-20m, return to the takeoff point, land, and stop flying.

Drone Positioning

Fixed-Point Positioning (Star Closing Position): The drone maintains its position based on GPS data.

Taking Photos and Videos

• Press the photo button on the remote control or tap the photo icon in the app to take photos.
• Press the video button on the remote control or tap the video icon in the app to record videos.

Note: When connected to a mobile phone, photo and video content is saved on the phone.

Speed Control

There are 3 speed levels. Briefly press the speed shift button on the remote control:

• "Di" = Slow
• "Di" + "Di" = Medium
• "Di" + "Di" + "Di" = Fast

The default mode is slow.
