Flight
This section describes fight precautions, fight restricted area and
aircraft precautions.

After completing the preparation, please conduct fight training or training frst. Please choose the right fight environment when fiying. The default fight height of the aircraft is 120m. Do not exceed the safe fight height. Strictly abide by local laws and regulations during fight. Be sure to read the ‘safety and disclaimer’ before fiying to understand the safety precautions.

Flight environment requirements

1. Do not fiy the aircraft in bad weather such as high winds, snow, rain, foggy weather, etc.
2. Choose a wide, open place with no tall buildings surrounded as a fght site. Buildings that use a lot of steel bars may affect the compass work and block GPS signals resulting in poor positioning or even inability to locate the aircraft.
3. When fying, please keep aircraft in sight, away from obstacles, crowds, water, etc.
4. Do not fying in areas that have high-voltage lines, communication base stations or transmission towers, etc. to avoid signal interference of the remote controller.
5. When flying above 6000m altitude, the performance of the aircraft battery and power system will be degraded due to environmental factors, thus the fght performance will be affected. Please fy with caution.
6. GPS is not available for fght in Arctic circle and Antarctic circle.

Flight restrictions and fight limits of special area

Flight restrictions and flight limits of special area according to the air traffic control regulations and the aircraft management regulations of ICAO and different nations’ air traffic control, aircraft must fiy in the prescribed airspace.

Beginner mode

or beginners, please turn on the beginner’s mode. Once the mode is activated, the aircraft will locate its own position by GPS before ready to takeoff. If the aircraft can not be controlled after takeoff, the RTH can be used to allow the aircraft to return automatically.

It is highly recommended to use the beginner mode, in which the fiying height of the aircraft will be limited to 30 meters and the distance will be limited to 50 meters (the height / distance limitation can be manually adjusted), and the aircraft can only takeoff if there is a good GPS signal. If user are already familiar with the operation of the aircraft, user can turn off the beginner mode in the ‘ aircraft settings’ menu of the app

Pre-fight inspection

1. Make sure the remote controller, aircraft battery, and mobile device are fully charged.
2. Make sure the propellers intact and installed correctly.
3. Make sure that front and rear arms and the blades are fully unfolded.
4. Make sure that the camera lens is clean.
5. Make sure the micro SD card installed correctly.
6. Ensure that the battery is frmly installed.
7. Always use original components or accessories certified by the manufacturer. The use of non-original accessories may pose a hazard to the use of the aircraft.

Compass calibration

The aircraft has a built-in compass that ensures that the aircraft maintains an accurate heading during intelligent fight. The compass status must be checked before each fight. If encounter the following situations, please calibrate the compass:

1. Before the fight to a new fight site.
2. When the aircraft status indicator shows that the compass has errors.
3. When the APP and the aircraft remind to calibrate the compass.
4. When the aircraft experiences severe shifting during hovering or ying

Compass calibration via APP

Enter calibration mode ：
When aircraft and APP connected, Choose ‘aircraft—operation interface— setting—aircraft setting’ click’ ‘ sensor calibration– compass calibration.

Compass calibration:
When the APP pops up a prompt, check the current environment and keep away from metal objects as prompted. Then tap the ‘calibration’ button,In this case, when the status indicator on the rear arm of the aircraft fashes blue and red alternately, the compass calibration mode starts.

Horizontal calibration :
When the APP prompts to rotate the aircraft horizontally, place the aircraft horizontally in the hand, then turn the aircraft horizontally until the status indicator on the rear arm of the aircraft changes to an alternatively fashing red and green light, which means that the horizontal calibration is successful.

Horizontal calibration

Vertical calibration

Vertical calibration :
When the APP prompts to place the aircraft’s head to be up and rotates, place the aircraft in the hand and ensure that the aircraft body is perpendicular to the ground; then rotates the aircraft horizontally. When the status indicator on the rear arm of the aircraft turns green (solid or fashing), the compass is successfully calibrated, at this time, the APP will prompt ‘calibration successful’, then tap finish’ to end the calibration process, if the status indicator turns to solid red light for about 6 seconds, the compass calibration fails. Please go to another location and re-calibrate.

Note：

• After changing the flight site, make sure to calibrate the compass before the first flight.
• If the aircraft indicator flashes blue and green alternately during flight, which means that the compass is abnormal and need to calibrate.
• Stay away from the environment with magnetic interference when calibrating, otherwise the calibration may fail.
• Do not calibrate in areas with strong magnetic fields, such as magnetic mines, parking lots, and building areas with underground reinforcement.
• Do not calibrate with carrying ferromagnetic materials such as keys, mobile phones, etc.
• Do not calibrate when large pieces of metal are nearby

Basic fight operation steps

1. Place the aircraft in a wide open area that its front is user’s front.
2. Turn on the aircraft and remote controller.
3. Connect the remote controller with the aircraft and then proceed aircraft self-diagnostic tests.
4. Connect the APP with mobile device and enter into the FPV interface.
5. Unlock the aircraft after the APP indicate: ready go.
6. Pull up the throttle stick then the aircraft takes off, and control the aircraft fight by left/right stick.
7. Pull down the throttle stick to land the aircraft.
8. Down the throttle stick to the bottom position and keep for 3 seconds to lock the aircraft.
9. Pull out the battery from the aircraft and then turn off the remote controller.

Flight control instructions

1. Power on
   Put the aircraft on the fat surface, turn on the remote controller and aircraft successively, wait for aircraft on faat ground for about 30 seconds for self-diagnostic tests. When the aircraft ‘s indicator light turns from fashing or solid blue to fiashing or solid green, which means the Remote controller and aircraft are connected. In the process of self-diagnostic tests, ground vibration may cause abnormal operation of the aircraft and gimbal, please shut down and restart the aircraft on the static horizontal ground to enter the normal working state.

2. Connect APP
   Turn on the ‘Cfiy 2 APP’, reference page 24 Connect the aircraft.

3. GPS signal status
   When the status indicator of the aircraft is solid green, it indicates that the GPS positioning is normal, and the aircraft can takeoff safely. When the green light fiashes on the aircraft status indicator, it indicates that the GPS signal is weak or no signal, and altitude mode can be selected for operation (this mode is diffcult to operate, it is not recommended for beginners).

Note：
