Flight guide

Pairing the remote control with the drone
Switch on the remote control Indicator lights flashes rapidly to slowly

Remote control indicator lights flashes rapidly
Indicator lights stays constant when pairing is complete.

Note

  • When you switch on the remote control, the indicator light will flash rapidly for approximately 20 seconds to indicate that the remote control is waiting for a signal. The indicator will then flash slowly to indicate that the pairing mode has been disabled.

Calibrating the compass

  1. Press to calibrating the compass
  2. Hold the drone horizontally and rotate 360 degrees a few times. Indicator lights flashes from slowly to rapidly
  3. Hold the drone vertically and rotate 360 degrees a few times. Indicator lights flashes from rapidly to constant

Note

    • Do not calibrate the compass near strong electromagnetic fields or large pieces of metal, car parks or buildings with underground steel reinforcements.
    • When holding the drone horizontally, the angle of inclination must not exceed 30 degrees.

Searching for satellites (No need to search for satellites for indoor flight)

    • The rear indicator light will change from orange to green when the drone has locked onto a satellite and recorded the take-off location. The drone is now ready to fly.
    • It should take approximately one minute for the drone to lock onto a satellite. If the drone fails to find a satellite, recalibrate the compass.
    • Before take-off, place the drone in an open space away from obstacles and ensure that GPS mode is enabled.
    • When the rear green indicator light flashes rapidly, this indicates that the GPS signal is weak. If this occurs, land the drone manually and restart the satellite search.

Turning the drone on

Move the left joystick upward

Push the left and right joysticks downward in a V shape for 1 second.

Turning the drone off

Method one
Push the left joystick downward for 2-3 seconds.

Method two
Push the left and righ joysticks downward in a V shape for 2 seconds

Method three
Press the take-off/landing button to make the drone land automatically and switch off.

Using the remote controller

Optical flow positioning

Front indicator is constant white, rear indicator is constant yellow.

Note

  • *If the rear indicator starts to flash rapidly, this indicates that the optical signal is weak and the drone cannot determine its position.
    • Performance may be impaired in dark surroundings, areas with reflective surfaces (e.g. water), or at altitudes of more than 6 m.
    • Optical flow positioning only supports altitudes of less than 6 m.

GPS mode

Front indicator is constant white, rear indicator is constant green.

Note

    • When the battery level is normal, the drone can fly to a distance of 350 m at a maximum altitude of 100 m.
    • When the battery level is low, the drone can fly to a distance of 20 m at a maximum altitude of 20 m.
    • If the rear indicator starts to flash rapidly, this indicates that the GPS signal is weak and the drone cannot determine its position.
    • GPS mode cannot be used indoors.

Headless mode
The indicator on the drone will flash once every 4 seconds.

Configuring the forward direction
When you switch on the drone for the first time, the direction in which the front side of the drone is pointing will be set as the forwards direction

  2. In headless mode, you do not need to determine the drone orientation. You can move the joysticks on the remote control to make the drone move in the corresponding direction

Flight control
Level calibration

Place the drone on a level surface and move the left and right joysticks to the lower right corner for approximately 3 seconds. The indicator will flash rapidly and then stay constant to indicate that the calibration process is complete.

The drone cannot be calibrated if the angle of inclination is greater than 10 degrees.

High/low speed mode
Place the drone on a level surface and move the left and right joysticks to the lower right corner for approximately 3 seconds. The indicator will flash rapidly and then stay constant to indicate that the calibration process is complete.

The drone cannot be calibrated if the angle of inclination is greater than 10 degrees.

Briefly press the right joystick to switch between high and low speed mode.

  1. Low speed mode is enabled by default when the drone is switched
  2. The remote control beeps twice when high speed mode is enabled and once when low speed mode is enabled.

One-Key take-off/landing

  1. When the drone is under standby mode, Press the take-off/landing button to make the drone take off automatically and hover at a height of 1.5 m.
  2. When the drone is under the active mode, it will automatically land on the ground if you press the one key landing

Remote control photo and video functions

  1. Take a photo : Press the photo button. The indicator on the drone will flash to indicate that a photo is taken.
  2. Record video : Press the record button. The indicator on the drone will flash twice to indicate that recording is in progress. Press the record button again to end the recording. The indicator on the drone will turn on to indicate that recording is complete.
  3. Camera angle adjustment

Return to home function
In GPS mode (when the indicator light is constant), hold the return to home, button so the drone will return to its take-off position automatically. During the return flight, you can use the joystick to control the drone ascend, descend and move left/right in order to avoid obstacles. To terminate the return flight, hold the return to home button.

  • If the drone is flying at an altitude less than 20 m, it will automatically ascend to an altitude of 20 m before returning home.
  • If the drone is flying at an altitude more than 20 m, it will return home at the same altitude.

Failsafe return to home
If the remote control signal is lost for more than 20 seconds, the drone will automatically return to the take-off position. If the signal is restored during the return flight, you can hold the return to home button to terminate the return flight.

  • The drone cannot automatically avoid obstacles during the return flight.
  • · The automatic return to home function is not available when the GPS signal is weak (flashing indicator light).
  • If the drone does not receive a GPS signal and lost contact with the remote control for more than 20 seconds, it will not be able to return to home but will land automatically.

Low-battery return to home
When the drone battery is low, the drone will automatically return to the take-off position. During the return flight, you can use the joystick to control the drone to ascend, descend and move left/right in order to avoid obstacles.

  • I f the drone is further than 20 m from the landing position, the return flight cannot be terminated.
  • I f the drone is less than 20 m from the landing position, the return flight can be terminated. Landing position: The initial unlock/take-off position.

Smart app features

  • Before using the smart app features, watch the video tutorial in the SYMA AIR app or on the SYMA website.
