Aircraft

This chapter introduces the major features of the aircraft.

Aircraft Profile
The Inspire 3 aircraft mainly consists of the flight control system, communication system, vision system, image processing system, propulsion system, transformation mechanism, and power and battery system. This chapter provides a detailed introduction to the aircraft components and functions.

Flight Modes
Flight modes can be switched via the Flight Mode switch on the remote controller.
N-mode (Normal)
The aircraft utilizes GNSS and the forward, backward, lateral, upward, and downward vision systems, and infrared sensing system to locate and stabilize itself. When the GNSS signal is strong, the aircraft uses GNSS to locate and stabilize itself. When the GNSS is weak, but the lighting and other environmental conditions are sufficient, the aircraft uses the vision systems to locate and stabilize itself. When obstacle sensing is enabled and the lighting and other environment conditions are sufficient, the maximum flight speed of the aircraft will be 15 m/s and the maximum tilt angle of the aircraft will be 35°. When the GNSS signal is weak and the lighting and other environmental conditions are insufficient, the aircraft cannot hover precisely and can only maintain its altitude.
S-mode (Sport)
The aircraft utilizes the GNSS and downward vision system to hover precisely. By adjusting the gain and expo settings, the maximum flight speed of the aircraft can be increased to 26 m/s.
When in S-mode, obstacle sensing in the four horizontal directions will be disabled, and the aircraft cannot detect or bypass obstacles in these directions. The upward and downward vision systems work normally to achieve the precise hover positioning.
F-mode (Function)
Function mode can be set to T-mode (Tripod mode) or A-mode (Attitude mode) in DJI Pilot 2.
T-mode is based on N-mode. The flight speed is limited to allow easier control of the aircraft.
Attitude mode must be used with caution.

• Obstacle sensing is disabled in S-mode, which means the aircraft cannot sense and brake to avoid obstacles automatically. Pay attention to the surrounding environment and obstacles on the route when flying the aircraft in S-mode.
• Note that when flying in S-mode, the flight speed of the aircraft will greatly increase compared with that in N-mode (Normal). The braking distance will increase significantly. When flying in a windless environment, a minimum braking distance of 55 m (180 ft) is required.
• A minimum braking distance of 15 m (49 ft) is required in windless conditions while the aircraft is ascending and descending when in S-mode.

A-mode (Attitude mode)
In Attitude mode, the vision systems and some intelligent features are disabled. The aircraft cannot position itself or brake automatically in this mode and is easily affected by its surroundings, which may result in horizontal shifting. Use the remote controller to control and position the aircraft. Fly with caution.

• DO NOT switch from N-mode to either S-mode or F-mode unless you are sufficiently familiar with the aircraft behavior under each flight mode. Make sure to turn on Multiple Flight Modes in DJI Pilot 2 before switching from N-mode to other modes.
• Avoid flying in areas where the GNSS signal is weak or in narrow and confined spaces.
  Otherwise, the aircraft will be forced to enter Attitude mode, leading to potential flight hazards. Land the aircraft in a safe place as soon as possible.

Warning States
| Blinks yellow quickly| Remote controller signal lost
| Blinks red slowly| Low battery level, takeoff is disabled
| Blinks red quickly| Critically low battery
| Blinks red quickly (when performing CSC)| IMU error
| Solid Red| Critical error
| Blinks red and yellow alternately| Compass calibration required

• If the aircraft cannot takeoff while the rear indicator is blinking red slowly or solid red, connect to the remote controller, run DJI Pilot 2, and view the details.

After the motor starts, the front LEDs blink red and green alternately and the rear LEDs blink green. The green lights indicate the aircraft is a UAV and the red lights indicate the heading and position of the aircraft.
The Y-shaped LED is used to assist in indicating the direction of the aircraft rear. After the aircraft is powered on, the Y-shaped LED will display solid green.

• Lighting requirements vary depending on the region. Observe local laws and regulations.

Aircraft Landing Gears
The aircraft is in travel mode before delivery. Follow the steps below to transform it to landing mode before first use.

Travel Mode Switching
Place the aircraft on a flat surface (such as a table) before switching between travel mode and landing mode.
Unlocking Travel Mode: after mounting the batteries, press the power button a minimum of five times to transform the aircraft from travel mode to landing mode, and power on.Entering Travel Mode: remove the gimbal camera with the aircraft powered on, press the power button a minimum of five times, wait for the aircraft to enter travel mode, and power off. Press the battery release before removing a battery.

• After pressing the power button a minimum of five times with the gimbal camera attached to the aircraft, the aircraft will enter travel mode once the gimbal camera is removed. The aircraft cannot transform from landing mode to travel mode with the gimbal camera attached.
• Keep your hands away from the transformation mechanism during the aircraft transformation.
• For the situations that need to adjust the landing gear manually, insert the crossing-end of the included screwdriver into the small hole on the bottom of the aircraft, and slowly rotate the gear of the servo gearbox.

Intelligent Landing Gear
Go to the DJI Pilot 2 camera view and tap to display the intelligent landing gear switch.

1. Intelligent Landing Gear Switch: when enabled, the aircraft will automatically raise or lower the landing gear during takeoff or landing. When disabled, it is recommended to go to the camera view and tap     Land Gear Settings to enable Precision Landing so that downward obstacle avoidance is turned on. Once the landing gear is raised during landing, the aircraft will automatically brake at 1 m above the ground to protect the gimbal camera.
2. Landing Gear Transformation Buttons: during flight, tap the buttons to raise or lower the landing gear.

• The landing gear can also raise or lower by pressing the R1 button on the remote controller. Read the Gimbal Camera View Introduction in the DJI Pilot 2 App chapter for more details.
• The landing gear will be automatically locked when the aircraft stays on the ground, unlock it in the Landing Gear Settings in app before using the remote controller or app to operate the landing gear, if necessary.

Return to Home
Return to Home (RTH) brings the aircraft back to the last recorded Home Point when the positioning system is functioning normally. There are three types of RTH: Smart RTH, Low Battery RTH, and Failsafe RTH. The aircraft automatically flies back to the Home Point and lands when Smart RTH is initiated, the aircraft enters Low Battery RTH, or the signal between the remote controller and the aircraft is lost during flight.

| GNSS| Description
---|---|---
Home Point| | The first location where the aircraft receives a strong to moderately strong GNSS signal (indicated by a white icon) will be recorded as the default Home Point. The Home Point can be updated before takeoff as long as the aircraft receives another strong to moderately strong GNSS signal. If the signal is weak, the Home Point will not be updated. DJI Pilot 2 will give a voice prompt when the Home Point is set.

Smart RTH
If the GNSS signal is sufficiently strong, Smart RTH can be used to bring the aircraft back to the Home Point. Smart RTH is initiated either by tapping in DJI Pilot 2 or by pressing and holding the RTH button on the remote controller until it beeps. During the RTH process, the remote controller will emit a “beep” sound. Press the RTH button or the flight pause button on the remote controller or tap the stop icon on the camera view in DJI Pilot 2 to exit the RTH. After exiting RTH, users will regain control of the aircraft.
Advanced RTH
Advanced RTH is enabled if the lighting is sufficient and the environment is suitable for vision systems when Smart RTH is triggered. The aircraft will automatically plan the best RTH path, which will be displayed in the DJI Pilot 2 app and will adjust according to the environment.
RTH Settings
RTH settings are available for Advanced RTH. Go to the camera view in DJI Pilot 2, tap , and then set Return to Home to Preset or Optimal.

1. Preset: when the aircraft is at a distance of 20 to 50 m from the Home Point when RTH begins, the aircraft will not ascend to the RTH Altitude and instead returns to home using the best path at the current altitude. If the aircraft is further than 50 m from the Home Point when RTH begins, the aircraft will plan the RTH path, fly to an open area while avoiding obstacles, ascend to the RTH Altitude, and return to home using the best path. When the aircraft is near the Home Point, the aircraft will descend while flying forward if the current altitude is higher than the RTH Altitude.
2. Optimal: regardless of the RTH Altitude settings, the aircraft automatically plans the optimal RTH path and adjusts the altitude according to environmental factors such as obstacles and transmission signals. The optimal RTH path means the aircraft will travel the shortest distance possible, reducing the amount of battery power used and increasing flight time.

Advanced RTH Procedure

1. The Home Point is recorded.

2. Advanced RTH is triggered.

3. The aircraft brakes and hovers in place.
   a. The aircraft lands immediately if it is less than 20 m from the Home Point when RTH begins.
   b. If the aircraft is farther than 20 m from the Home Point when RTH begins, the aircraft will plan the best path according to the RTH settings and fly to the Home Point while avoiding obstacles and GEO zones. The aircraft front will always point in the same direction as the flight direction.

4. The aircraft will fly automatically according to the RTH settings, environment, and transmission signal during RTH.

5. The aircraft lands and the motors stop after reaching the Home Point.

Straight Line RTH
The aircraft will enter Straight Line RTH when the lighting is not sufficient and the environment is not suitable for Advanced RTH.
Straight Line RTH Procedure:

1. The Home Point is recorded.

2. Straight Line RTH is triggered.

3. The aircraft brakes and hovers in place.
   a. If the aircraft is farther than 50 m from the Home Point when RTH begins, the aircraft first ascends to a height of 20 m (this step is skipped if the current height is higher than 20 m), then the aircraft adjusts its orientation and ascends to the preset RTH altitude and flies to the Home Point. If the current altitude is higher than the RTH altitude, the aircraft will fly to the Home Point at the current altitude.
   b. If the aircraft is at a distance of 20 to 50 m from the Home Point when RTH begins, the aircraft first ascends to a height of 20 m (this step is skipped if the current height is higher than 20 m), then the aircraft adjusts its orientation and flies to the Home Point. If the current altitude is lower than 5 m when RTH begins, the aircraft will ascend to 5 m and fly to the Home Point.
   c. The aircraft lands immediately if it is less than 20 m from the Home Point when RTH begins.

4. The aircraft lands and the motors stop after reaching the Home Point.

•  During Advanced RTH, the aircraft will adjust the flight speed automatically to suit environmental factors such as wind speed and obstacles.
• The aircraft cannot avoid small or fine objects such as tree branches or power lines. Fly the aircraft to an open area before using Smart RTH.
• Set Advanced RTH as Preset if there are power lines or towers that the aircraft cannot avoid on the RTH path and make sure the RTH Altitude is set higher than all obstacles.
• The aircraft will brake and return to home according to the latest settings if the RTH settings are changed during RTH.
• If the max altitude is set below the current altitude during RTH, the aircraft will descend to the max altitude and return to home.
• The RTH Altitude cannot be changed during RTH.
• If there is a large difference in the current altitude and the RTH altitude, the amount of battery power used cannot be calculated accurately due to wind speeds at different altitudes. Pay extra attention to the battery power and warning prompts in DJI Pilot 2.
• Advanced RTH will not be available if the lighting condition and environment is not suitable for vision systems during takeoff or RTH.
• During Advanced RTH, the aircraft will enter Straight Line RTH if the lighting condition and environment are not suitable for vision systems and the aircraft cannot avoid obstacles. An appropriate RTH altitude must be set before entering RTH.
• When the remote controller signal is normal during Advanced RTH, the pitch stick can be used to control the flight speed, but the orientation and altitude cannot be controlled and the aircraft cannot be flown left or right. Acceleration uses more power. The aircraft cannot avoid obstacles if the flight speed exceeds the effective sensing speed. The aircraft will brake and hover in place and exit from RTH if the pitch stick is pulled all the way down. The aircraft can be controlled after the pitch stick is released.
• When the remote controller signal is normal during Straight Line RTH, the flight speed and altitude can be controlled using the remote controller, but the orientation of the aircraft cannot be controlled and the aircraft cannot be flown left or right. The aircraft cannot avoid obstacles if the pitch stick is used to accelerate and the flight speed exceeds the effective sensing speed. When the aircraft is ascending or flying forward, push the control stick in the opposite direction to exit RTH. Release the control stick to regain control of the aircraft. If the aircraft reaches the max altitude while it is ascending during RTH, the aircraft stops and returns to the Home Point at the current altitude.
• The aircraft will hover in place if it reaches the max altitude while it is ascending after detecting obstacles in front.
• The aircraft will brake during Straight Line RTH when it is less than 50 m from the Home Point and detects an object.

Low Battery RTH
When the Intelligent Battery level is too low and there is not enough power to return home, land the aircraft as soon as possible.
To avoid unnecessary danger caused by insufficient power, the aircraft will automatically calculate if it has enough power to fly to the Home Point from its current location. A warning prompt will appear in DJI Pilot 2 when the battery level is low and only has enough power to complete an RTH flight.
The aircraft will automatically fly to the Home Point if no action is taken after a 10-second countdown. Cancel RTH by pressing the RTH button or the flight pause button on the remote controller.
If the countdown of the low battery RTH is canceled, after 60 seconds from the last countdown, once the current battery level becomes lower than the Smart RTH battery level, the app will display a countdown for 10 seconds. If RTH is canceled following the warning, the Intelligent Battery may not have enough power for the aircraft to land safely, which may lead to the aircraft crashing or being lost.
The aircraft will land automatically if the current battery level can only support the aircraft long enough to descend from its current altitude. Auto landing cannot be canceled, but the remote controller can be used to alter the horizontal movement and the speed of descent of the aircraft during landing. If there is sufficient power, the throttle stick can be used to make the aircraft ascend at a speed of 1 m/s.
During auto landing, move the aircraft horizontally to find an appropriate place to land as soon as possible. The aircraft will fall if the user keeps pushing the throttle stick upward until the power is depleted.

the Home Point automatically and landing
protection will be enabled. Users can regain control of the aircraft and land it manually
during RTH.
The warning will not appear again after choosing not to use RTH. Decide carefully and ensure flight safety.
Auto Landing| The remaining battery level is only enough for the aircraft to descend from its current altitude.| The aircraft will land automatically and landing protection will be enabled.
Estimated Remaining Flight Time| The estimated remaining flight time of
the aircraft is based on its current battery level.| /
Low Battery Level Warning| Tap  in camera view to set the low battery level threshold value.| Long beeps will sound from the remote controller. The user can still control the aircraft.
Critical Low Battery Level Warning| Tap  in camera view to set the critical low battery level threshold value.| Short beeps will sound from the remote controller. The user can still control the
aircraft. It is unsafe to continue flying the aircraft. Land immediately.

• The threshold value is different from that of Low Battery RTH or auto landing.

  • The colored zones and the estimated remaining flight time on the battery level indicator are automatically adjusted according to the aircraft’s current location and status.

Failsafe RTH
The action of the aircraft when the remote controller signal is lost can be set to RTH, land, or hover in DJI Pilot 2. If the Home Point was successfully recorded and the compass is functioning normally, Failsafe RTH automatically activates after the remote controller signal or the command and control link is lost for more than six seconds.
When the lighting is sufficient and the vision systems are working normally, DJI Pilot 2 will display the RTH path that was generated by the aircraft before the remote controller signal was lost and return to home using Advanced RTH according to the RTH settings. The aircraft will remain in RTH even if the remote controller signal is restored. DJI Pilot 2 will update the RTH path accordingly.
When the lighting is not sufficient and the vision systems are not available, the aircraft will enter Original Route RTH.
Original Route RTH Procedure:

1. Original Route RTH is triggered.

2. The aircraft brakes and hovers in place.
   a. If the aircraft is farther than 50 m from the Home Point, the aircraft adjusts its orientation and flies backward for 50 m on its original flight route before entering Straight Line RTH.
   b. If the aircraft is at a distance of 20 to 50 m from the Home Point, it enters Straight Line RTH.
   c. The aircraft lands immediately if it is less than 20 m from the Home Point when RTH begins.

3. The aircraft lands and the motors stop after reaching the Home Point.
   The aircraft will enter or remain in Straight Line RTH if the remote controller signal is restored during RTH.

• The aircraft may not be able to return to the Home Point normally if the GNSS signal is weak or unavailable. The aircraft may enter Attitude mode if the GNSS signal becomes weak or unavailable after entering Failsafe RTH. The aircraft will hover in place  for a while before landing.
• It is important to set a suitable RTH altitude before each flight. Launch DJI Pilot 2 and set the RTH altitude. The default RTH altitude is 100 m.
• The aircraft cannot avoid obstacles during Failsafe RTH if the vision systems are unavailable.
• GEO zones may affect the RTH. Avoid flying near GEO zones.
• The aircraft may not be able to return to a Home Point when the wind speed is too high. Fly with caution.
• Be aware of small or fine objects (such as tree branches or power lines) or transparent objects (such as water or glass) during RTH. Exit RTH and control the aircraft manually in an emergency.
• RTH may not be available in some environments even if the vision systems are working. The aircraft will exit RTH in such cases.

Landing Protection
If the user triggers RTH or auto landing using the remote controller or the app, Landing
Protection will activate during Smart RTH. When the aircraft begins to land, Landing Protection is enabled.

1. During Landing Protection, the aircraft will automatically detect and carefully land on suitable ground.
2. If the ground is determined unsuitable for landing, the aircraft will hover and wait for pilot confirmation.
3. If Landing Protection is not operational, DJI Pilot 2 will display a landing prompt when the aircraft descends to 1 m from the ground. Tap confirm or push the throttle stick all the way down and hold for one second, and the aircraft will land.

• Landing protection will not work in the following circumstances:
  a. When the downward vision system is disabled.
  b. When the user is operating the pitch/roll/throttle stick (landing protection will be reactivated when the control stick is not in use).
  c. When the positioning system is not functioning properly (such as position drift errors).
  d. When the vision system needs calibrating. When the lighting is too dim for the vision system to operate.
  e. If no valid observation data is obtained and the ground conditions cannot be detected, the aircraft will descend to 1 m above the ground and hover pending confirmation by the user to land.

Precision Landing
The aircraft automatically scans and attempts to match the terrain features below during RTH.
The aircraft will land when the current terrain matches the Home Point. A prompt will appear in DJI Pilot 2 if the terrain match fails.

•  Landing Protection is activated during Precision Landing.

• The performance of Precision Landing is subject to the following conditions:
  a. The Home Point must be recorded upon takeoff and must not be changed during flight. Otherwise, the aircraft will have no record of the terrain features of the Home Point.
  b. During takeoff, the aircraft must ascend at least 7 m before moving horizontally.
  c. The Home Point terrain features must remain largely unchanged.
  d. The terrain features of the Home Point must be sufficiently distinctive. Terrain such as a snow-covered field is not suitable.
  e. The lighting conditions must not be too light or too dark.

• The following actions are available during Precision Landing:
  a. Pull the throttle stick down to accelerate landing.
  b. Move the control sticks in any direction apart from the throttle direction to stop Precision Landing. The aircraft will descend vertically after the control sticks are released, and landing protection is enabled.

Vision Systems and Infrared Sensing System
The aircraft is equipped with both an infrared sensing system and forward, backward, lateral, upward, and downward vision systems.
The upward and downward vision systems consist of two cameras, and the forward, backward, and lateral vision systems consist of four cameras in total.
The infrared sensing system consists of two infrared modules. The downward vision system and infrared sensing system help the aircraft maintain its current position, hover more precisely, and fly indoors or in other environments where GNSS is unavailable.
In addition, the auxiliary bottom light located on the underside of the aircraft improves visibility for the downward vision system in weak light conditions.

Landing Gear Raised

Landing Gear Lowered

• Omnidirectional obstacle sensing is available in the horizontal direction when the landing gear is raised. When the landing gear is lowered, there are two 20° sensor blind spots at the front left and right of the aircraft that may affect obstacle sensing. See the
  diagram above. Fly with caution.

• The gray area is the blind spot of the vision system, where the aircraft cannot detect objects. Fly with caution.

• The various gimbal rotation and the lens length will change the FOV of the downward vision system, and the blind spot of the downward vision system will change accordingly. Fly with caution.

• If the downward sensing system is disabled, the aircraft cannot decrease its speed when an obstacle is encountered (including the ground) during descent. Fly with caution.

Using the Vision System
The positioning function of the downward vision system is applicable when GNSS signals are unavailable or weak. It is automatically enabled in N-mode or T-mode.
The horizontal omnidirectional and upward vision systems will activate automatically when the aircraft is powered on if the aircraft is in N-mode or T-mode, and Obstacle Avoidance is set to Brake in DJI Pilot 2. The aircraft can actively brake when detecting obstacles when using the horizontal omnidirectional, and upward vision systems. The horizontal omnidirectional and upward vision systems work best with adequate lighting and clearly marked or textured obstacles. Due to inertia, users must make sure to brake the aircraft within a reasonable distance.

• Pay attention to the flight environment. The vision system and infrared sensing system only work in certain scenarios and cannot replace human control and judgment. During a flight, always pay attention to the surrounding environment and the warnings in DJI Pilot 2, and be responsible for and maintain control of the aircraft at all times.

• Obstacle Avoidance is disabled during the landing gear transformation. Fly with caution.

• The aircraft cannot avoid moving obstacles such as people, animals, or vehicles. Fly with caution.

• The downward vision systems work best when the aircraft is at an altitude from 0.5 to 30 m if there is no GNSS available. Extra caution is required if the altitude of the aircraft is above 30 m as the vision positioning performance may be affected.

• The auxiliary bottom light can be set in DJI Pilot 2. If set to Auto, it is automatically enabled when the environment light is too weak. Note that the vision system performance may not be restored to the best state. Fly with caution if the GNSS signal is weak.

• The vision system may not work properly over water. Therefore, the aircraft may not be able to actively avoid water below it when landing. It is recommended to maintain flight control at all times, make reasonable judgments based on the surrounding environment, and avoid over-relying on the downward vision system.

• The vision system cannot work properly over surfaces without clear pattern variations or where the light is too weak or too strong. The vision system cannot work properly in the following situations:
  a. Flying near monochrome surfaces (e.g., pure black, white, red, or green) or those without clear texture or those with highly repetitive textures (e.g., small bricks of the same color).
  b. Flying near surfaces with strong reflected light or images (e.g., water, ice, or transparent surfaces).
  c. Flying near moving surfaces or objects (e.g., crowds of people or swaying reeds, shrubs, or grass).
  d. Flying in an area with frequent and drastic lighting changes.
  e. Flying near extremely dark (< 10 lux) or extremely bright (> 40,000 lux) surfaces.
  f. Tiny obstacles (e.g., iron wiring, cables, and tree branches).
  g. The lens is dirty (e.g., from raindrops or fingerprints).
  h. In low-visibility environments less than 100 m (e.g., heavy fog or snow).

• Be alert when in control of the aircraft instead of relying on the obstacle avoidance function provided by the vision systems and the infrared sensing system.

• Obstacle avoidance cannot detect certain obstacles such as iron wiring, cables, tree branches, blind spots, and mirrored surfaces. Keep the aircraft within VLOS and pay close attention to the flight. Use the liveview to help operate the aircraft and manually avoid obstacles in a timely manner.

• If the aircraft is involved in a collision, it may be necessary to ship the aircraft to DJI to calibrate the vision systems. DO NOT hang or place anything in an area that will block the vision systems, infrared sensing systems, and their observation range.

• Make sure that the sensor lens is clear and free of stains. Check the following before each takeoff:
  a. Make sure there are no stickers or any other obstructions over the glass of the infrared sensing systems and vision systems.
  b. Use soft cloth if there is any dirt, dust, or water on the glass of the vision systems and infrared sensing system. DO NOT use any cleaning product that contains alcohol.
  c. Contact DJI Support if there is any damage to the lenses of the infrared sensing and  vision systems.

• If the aircraft attitude angle is larger than 30° or the speed exceeds 15 m/s, the infrared sensing systems cannot detect obstacles in time for the aircraft to brake and hover at a safe distance.

• Be aware of the blind spots (marked gray) of the vision systems and infrared sensing systems. Aircraft cannot sense obstacles that are out of the detection range. The infrared sensor observation range is from 0.1 to 10 m.

• DO NOT obstruct the infrared sensing system.

Flight Recorder
Flight data including flight telemetry, aircraft status information, and other parameters are automatically saved to the internal data storage of the aircraft. The data can be accessed using DJI Assistant 2 (DJI Inspire Series). Follow the instructions in the DJI Assistant 2 to export the flight record.
Aircraft FPV Camera
DJI Inspire 3 aircraft is equipped with an FPV camera using a 1/1.8″ sensor, which can optimize images in poor lighting conditions at night. Using the 161° FOV, it helps the pilot to have better visibility of the flight environment and fly safely.
When the landing gear is raised and the aircraft is flying horizontally, the controllable range of the gimbal tilt is from -60° to +45°. When the landing gear is lowered or the aircraft is tilted, the controllable range of the gimbal tilt up or down will be changed due to the influence of the angle of the propeller blade.

Aircraft Antennas
DO NOT cover or block any antenna during usage to avoid affecting communication or positioning performance.

1. Internal O3 Pro Video Transmission Antennas
2. Internal DJI AirSense Antennas
3. Internal RTK Antennas

Aircraft RTK
RTK Module Introduction
The built-in RTK module of the aircraft supports three types of global positioning systems including BeiDou, GPS and Galileo, which can withstand strong magnetic interference from metal structures and high-voltage lines, ensuring safe and stable flight. When used with a D-RTK 2 High Precision GNSS Mobile Station (sold separately) or a Custom Network RTK service, more accurate positioning data can be obtained. *

• Both D-RTK 2 High Precision GNSS Mobile Station and D-RTK 2 High Precision GNSS Mobile Station for Matrice Series are supported.

  • The RTK positioning needs to be in an environment with good GNSS signal (outdoors in an open area without obstacles) to ensure high-precision positioning. The RTK solution is fixed to converge to centimeter-level accuracy.
  • RTK positioning accuracy is affected by the atmospheric situation, and it cannot be fixed when ionosphere flickering or large errors occur.

Enabling/Disabling RTK
Ensure that the RTK function is enabled and the RTK service type is correctly set (D-RTK 2 Mobile Station or Custom Network RTK) before each use. Otherwise, RTK cannot be used for positioning. Go to the camera view in the DJI Pilot 2 app, tap to check the settings.
Make sure to disable the RTK function if not in use. Otherwise, the aircraft will not be able to take off when there is no differential data.

• RTK positioning can be enabled and disabled during flight. Remember to select an RTK service type first.
• Switching the RTK service type is not supported during flight.
• If the RTK positioning function is enabled when using Waypoint Pro, the same RTK service type must be used for the same flight route type to avoid positioning deviation.
• If the RTK service type is D-RTK 2 Mobile Station, make sure that the location accuracy of the base station is up to centimeter level, and configure the location coordinates of the D-RTK 2 Mobile Station.

DJI D-RTK 2 Mobile Station

1. Refer to the D-RTK 2 High Precision GNSS Mobile Station User Guide (available from https://www.dji.com/inspire-3/downloads) to set up the D-RTK 2 Mobile Station and link the aircraft with the mobile station. Power on the D-RTK 2 Mobile Station and switch to Operating Mode 5.
2. In the RTK settings in the app, select D-RTK 2 Mobile Station as the RTK service type, connect to the mobile station by following the on-screen instructions, and wait for the system to search for satellites. In the RTK settings, when the status of the aircraft positioning in the status table shows FIX, it indicates that the aircraft has obtained and used differential data from Network RTK.
3. D-RTK 2 Mobile Station communication distance: 12 km (NCC/FCC), 6 km (SRRC/CE/MIC).
4. The D-RTK 2 Mobile Station can only provide relatively high-precision location services. If absolute location accuracy is required, it is necessary to calibrate the absolute location of the mobile station and ensure the installation accuracy of the mobile station.

Custom Network RTK
To use Custom Network RTK, make sure that the remote controller has a Wi-Fi connection.
Custom Network RTK can be used to replace the D-RTK 2 Mobile Station. Connect the Custom Network RTK account to the designated NTRIP server to send and receive differential data. Keep the remote controller turned on and connected to the internet when using this function.

1. Make sure that the remote controller is connected to the aircraft and the internet.
2. Go to the camera view in the DJI Pilot 2 app, tap   . Select Custom Network RTK as the RTK service type and fill in the required information, and then tap Save.
3. Wait to connect to the NTRIP server. In the RTK settings, when the status of the aircraft positioning in the status table shows FIX, it indicates that the aircraft has obtained and used differential data from Custom Network RTK.

Propellers
Read the Using for the First Time section for propeller installation information.
DJI Inspire 3 aircraft supports both the 1671 Foldable Quick-Release Propellers and the 1676 Foldable Quick-Release Propellers for High Altitude (sold separately). * Refer to the diagram below to choose the appropriate propellers according to the aircraft weight (includes gimbal camera, two batteries, lens, PROSSD, and propellers) and the expected maximum flight altitude.
The service ceiling is the theoretical maximum altitude that the aircraft can fly at normally, on the condition that the wind speed does not exceed 14 m/s when flying and 12 m/s when taking off or landing. The aircraft braking and acceleration capabilities will be reduced when flying near the service ceiling. Use the Foldable Quick-Release Propellers for High Altitude when flying at altitudes higher than 3,000 m (9,842.5 ft) above sea level.

• Not available in some countries and regions.

When attached with certain payloads and either the Foldable Quick-Release or the Foldable Quick-Release Propellers for High Altitude, the weight of the aircraft varies and the recommended takeoff and flying altitude also varies. The following typical data was tested in an environment with a gentle breeze and are for reference only.

| Using the Foldable Quick-Release Propellers| Using the Foldable Quick- Release Propellers for High Altitude
---|---|---
Take off weight (kg)| Minimum take off altitude (m)| Maximum take off altitude (m)| Maximum Service
Ceiling (m)| Minimum take off altitude (m)| Maximum take off
altitude (m)| Maximum Service
Ceiling (m)
4| 0| 3200| 3700| 3000| 6500| 7000
4.3| 0| 2500| 3000| 1900| 5400| 5900
Maximum flight altitude after takeoff is according to the national regulations.

• Compared with the ordinary propellers, if high altitude propellers are used to fly at altitudes lower than 3,000 m (9,842.5 ft) above sea level, the motor temperature rises higher, which may reduce motor life or even damage it. Therefore, use high altitudepropellers only at the recommended altitude or under suitable working conditions.
• Only use official DJI propellers. DO NOT mix propeller types.
• Purchase additional propellers if necessary.
• Make sure that the propellers and motors are installed securely, and are unfolded before each flight.
• Make sure that all propellers are in good condition before each flight. DO NOT use aged, chipped, or broken propellers. Power off the aircraft before examining or replacing any propellers.
• Regularly check the wear of the propeller adapter jaws. If the wear thickness of the propeller adapter jaws exceeds 0.5 mm (about 1/4 of the original thickness), it must be replaced before use. It is recommended to check the propellers once a month.
• To avoid injury, stay away from rotating propellers or motors.
• Wipe the propellers dry before each flight where the surrounding temperature is approximately 0° C (32° F) to avoid the propellers from being frozen. Make sure the propellers DO NOT have any ice on them before and after each flight. Remove any ice found on the propellers before flight. Fly with caution. Return to home and land the aircraft as soon as possible if a motor overload warning prompt appears in the app.
• After use, make sure to store the propellers in strict accordance with the requirements. Failure to store the propellers correctly may result in damage to the trolley case or deformation of the propellers. Read the Trolley Case section for the propellers storage
  information.

Propeller Guard
The aircraft can be equipped with propeller guards. Read the Propeller Guard Product Information for further details.
The aircraft will automatically run propeller guard detection when taking off once the propeller guards have been installed correctly, the lighting is sufficient, and the environment is suitable for the vision systems. After installing the propeller guard, the obstacle sensing function will be disabled and the low battery power of RTH will be adjusted.

• After installing the propeller guard, the aircraft will not support obstacle avoidance. The aircraft may be unable to maintain flight performance and the wind resistance performance may be reduced. Fly with caution.

• Before takeoff, make sure to check whether the propeller guard detection appears in the app to avoid false detection or missed detection.
  a. False Detection: If the propeller guards are not installed but there is a propeller guard detection prompt in the app, the obstacle avoidance of the aircraft will be disabled, and obstacle avoidance will not be available during flight.
  b. Missed Detection: If the propeller guards have been installed but there is no prompt in the app, this may cause safety risks such as accidental braking, accidental hovering during RTH, or failure to return to home due to low battery during flight.

• When the propeller guard detection prompt indicates an abnormality, check to ensure the lighting (>15 lux) is sufficient and the environment is suitable for takeoff, the vision sensors surfaces are clean, and the four propeller guards are installed correctly.

Expansion Ports

1. Timecode Input Port
2. USB-C Assistant Port

Timecode Input Port
Use a time code synchronizer with a 3.5mm audio jack (sold separately). Follow the steps below to synchronize the time code of the camera.

1. Power on the remote controller and the aircraft.
2. Go to the DJI Pilot 2 camera view, tap Camera Advanced Settings panel, set the timecode running mode to Free and the mode to Jam Sync.
3. Make sure that the timecode synchronizer and the camera parameters (counting mode and project frame rate) are the same.
4. Insert the timecode synchronizer into the timecode input port on the bottom of the aircraft.
5. When the EXT icon is displayed on the timecode in the app, the synchronization is successful.

USB-C Assistant Port
Connect the USB-C assistant port on the aircraft to a computer, and run DJI Assistant 2 to update the aircraft firmware. When connecting, make sure that there is no interference between the data cable and the gimbal camera rotation, especially the rotation of the gimbal pan.

Warnings

• Keep liquids away from the inside of the charging hub.
• DO NOT block the air vent of the charging hub during charging. Make sure the vent is well- ventilated and able to dissipate heat.
• The charging hub is only compatible with the TB51 battery. DO NOT use the charging hub with any other battery models.
• Place the charging hub on a flat and stable surface when in use. Make sure the device is properly insulated to prevent fire hazards.
• DO NOT attempt to touch the metal terminals on the battery port of the charging hub. Clean the metal terminals with a clean, dry cloth if there is any noticeable buildup when powered off.
• Carefully insert the battery after aligning the battery and the charging hub ports to avoid battery damage.
• Keep your fingers away from the cover connection point when opening the charging hub to avoid injury.

Paired Charging of Batteries

The charging hub will prioritize paired battery ports and charge the batteries according to the diagram. There are four pairs in the sequence of A, B, C, and D.
a. Where there are multiple battery pairs, the pair with the highest power will be charged first. (Figure a)
b. Between paired and singular batteries, paired batteries will be charged first. (Figure b)
c. If none of the batteries are paired, the two batteries with the highest power will be charged first. (Figure c)

Battery that will charge first.

• When the power of the paired batteries is not the same, the charging hub will charge the one with less power first.

Charging Modes
Toggle the charging mode switch to select from three types of charging modes.

1. Fast Mode: each battery pair is charged to 90% in sequence, then to 100% together. It takes approximate 35 minutes to charge one battery pair to 90%, and approximate 160 minutes to charge four battery pairs to 100%.
2. Standard Mode: each battery pair is charged to 100% in sequence. It takes approximate 55 minutes to charge one battery pair to 100%.
3. Silent Mode: each battery pair is charged to 100% in sequence at a slower rate. It takes approximate 80 minutes to charge one battery pair to 100%.
   • In silent mode, if the temperature is high or the air vent is blocked, the fan noise may still be loud in order to meet the charging and heat dissipation requirements.

Using the Charging Hub

1. Open the charging hub, insert the batteries, and toggle the switch to select a charging mode.
2. Connect the charging hub to a power outlet using an AC cable to charge the batteries. Connect the USB-C port of the charging hub to the DJI RC Plus remote controller to charge the remote controller.
3. Remove the batteries from the charging hub when charging is complete and then disconnect the AC cable.
   • When the temperature of a battery is below 10° C (50° F), the charging hub will automatically warm up to 18° C (64.4° F) before charging.
   • The charging hub cannot charge the batteries when the battery temperature is above 45° C (113° F). During charging, the charging hub will stop charging the batteries if the battery temperature exceeds 50° C (122° F).

Intelligent Battery

This chapter introduces the features of Intelligent Battery.

Introduction
The TB51 Intelligent Battery is equipped with high-energy battery cells and uses an advanced  battery management system to power the aircraft. Only use a DJI-approved charging device tocharge the Intel ligent Battery. The firmware for the Intelligent Battery is included in the aircraft firmware. Make sure the firmware of all intelligent batteries is updated to the latest version.

Battery Features
The Intelligent Battery has the following features:

1. Battery Level Display: the battery level LEDs display the current battery level.
2. Battery Self-discharge: will be triggered if the battery level is higher than 60%. Discharging the battery level to 60% can extend battery life.
3. Battery Cell Balanced: the voltage of the battery cells are automatically balanced to avoid overcharge or over-discharge.
4. Overcharge Protection: the battery stops charging automatically once fully charged.
5. Temperature Detection: prevents any damage, the battery only charges when the temperature is between -20° to 45° C (-4° to 113° F).
6. Overcurrent Protection: the battery stops charging if an excess current is detected.
7. Over-Discharge Protection: ensures flight safety and allow users to have as much time as possible to deal with emergencies, over-discharge protection is disabled to allow continuous output. Pay attention to the remaining battery level during flight and land or Return to Home immediately when prompted to do so in the app. Otherwise, the battery may be dangerously over-discharged. Charging an over-discharged battery may be a fire hazard. To prevent this, the battery will be locked and can no longer be charged or used. When the battery is not used in flight, over-discharge protection will be enabled once the battery level is lower than 5% to avoid battery damage.
8. Short Circuit Protection: the power supply is automatically cut off if a short circuit is detected.
9. Battery Cell Damage Protection: the app will display a warning prompt when a damaged battery cell is detected.
10. Hibernation Mode: the battery will be in Hibernation mode when not in use to save power. The battery will enter Deep Hibernation mode once the power is too low. At this time, the battery LEDs will not function after pressing the battery level button. Insert the battery into the charging hub to charge for activation.
11. Communication: information about the voltage, capacity, and current of the battery is transmitted to the aircraft.
12. Warming up: ensures the battery operates normally at a low temperature. Refer to the Warming the Battery section for more information.

• Refer to the user manual, safety guidelines, and battery labels before use. Users shall take full responsibility for all operations and usage.
• If only one battery is usable after takeoff, land the aircraft promptly and replace the battery.
• Use batteries provided by DJI. DO NOT use other batteries.
• DO NOT drop or damage the battery. DO NOT place heavy objects on the battery or the charging hub.

Using the Battery
Using the Paired Batteries
Charge and discharge the two batteries together to optimize flight performance and maximize battery life. After the batteries are inserted and the aircraft is powered on and there is a huge difference between their battery life, the app will display a prompt alerting the user. In this case, it is recommended to replace the batteries with similar performance before use.
Before use, the two batteries can be marked with a battery pairing sticker. The recommended area to place the sticker is shown in the diagram below.

• DO NOT attach the sticker in other places, so as not to affect the installation and use of the battery.

Mounting/Removing the Battery
Read the Using for the First Time section for the battery installation information.
After use, toggle the battery release to unlock and remove the battery from the battery compartment.

• Always use a clean, dry cloth when cleaning the battery terminals. Otherwise, this may cause poor contact, resulting in energy loss or failure to charge.

Powering On/Off and Checking the Battery Level
Install the batteries in the aircraft before powering on or off.
Power on/off: press the power button, then press and hold for two seconds. The indicator can show current battery level after the aircraft is powered on. The indicator turns off after the aircraft is powered off.Press the battery level button to check the current battery level when the power supply is off.
After powering on, check the current battery level in the top bar of the app.
The Battery Level Indicators will also show the current battery level during discharging. The indicators are defined below.

: LED is on.
: LED is off.
: LED is flashing.

• Regularly check the battery level and battery cycle counts. The battery is rated for 200 cycles. It is not recommended to continue to use afterward.

Hot Battery Replacement
After landing, the aircraft does not have to be powered off for replacement of its batteries. First, insert a fully charged battery and wait for three seconds before inserting another battery.

Warming the Battery
The battery has a built-in self-heating feature for when operating in low- temperature conditions:

1. When the battery temperature is lower than 18° C (64.4° F), self-heating starts once the battery is inserted into the aircraft and powered on.
2. If the battery is not inserted into the aircraft, press and hold the battery level button for five seconds to initiate self-heating. The battery will continue to keep warm with a temperature between 18° and 20° C (64.4° and 68° F) for approximately 30 minutes. Press and hold the battery level button for five seconds to stop self-heating.
3. If the battery is at a temperature below 10° C (50° F), the charging hub will warm up the battery once it is inserted in the powered-on charging hub.
4. When the battery is warming up and staying warm the battery level LEDs will blink as follows.

• At a temperature below 10° C (50° F), battery resistance increases and voltage decreases significantly, which in turn reduces battery capacity and performance. Make sure that the battery is fully charged and the cell voltage is 4.4 V before use.
• When the DJI Pilot 2 app shows a critically low battery level warning, it is recommended to stop flying immediately and land the aircraft in an appropriate place. During auto landing, users can still use the remote controller to control aircraft orientation  and push the throttle stick to lift the aircraft.
• In extremely cold temperatures, the battery temperature may not be high enough for it to operate, even after warming up. In such scenarios, increase the insulation of the battery.
• To ensure optimal performance, keep the temperature of the batteries above 18° C (64.4° F) before flight.
• In low temperatures, the preheating period may be longer. It is recommended to insulate the batteries in advance to shorten the preheating period.

Battery Storage

1. It is recommended to store the battery separately in a dry environment at room temperature of approximately 25° C (77° F). DO NOT insert the battery into the aircraft or the charging hub for storage.
2. Battery self-discharge will be triggered if the battery level is higher than 60%. Discharging the battery level to 60% can extend battery life. The battery self-discharge strategy is shown below.
3. Storing batteries at proper levels can extend battery life. It is recommended to store the battery at 60% (the battery level LEDs display two solid LEDs and one blinking).

• The battery may be damaged once it exceeds the maximum storage period. The battery should no longer be used.
• The actual maximum storage period will vary slightly due to the batteries being part of different production batches and stored in different environment.

Video Transmission
Using a Single Remote Controller
The DJI Inspire 3 aircraft uses O3 Pro video transmission technology, which supports two simultaneous HD video transmissions. For the FPV camera, the video transmission resolution is 1080p, and the default frame rate is 60fps. For the gimbal camera, the video transmission resolution can be up to 4K with the frame rate of up to 30fps, and the frame rate can be up to 60fps if using the 1080p resolution.

• The 4K resolution video transmission of DJI Inspire 3 can only be enabled when the recording frame rate is not higher than 30fps.

• The video transmission resolution does not support automatic adjustment. Since the 4K resolution video transmission is highly dependent on the video transmission bit rate, when the video transmission bit rate is lower than 10Mbps, it is recommended to
  manually adjust the resolution to 1080p.

• When the communication quality is poor, the frame rate of the FPV camera video transmission and the gimbal camera will automatically adjust so as to improve the display quality. After the communication quality improves, the frame rate will automatically adjust to the default frame rate.

• In order to ensure flight safety, when the communication quality is poor, priority will be given to video transmission of the FPV camera.

Using Dual Remote Controllers
When using dual remote controllers, the aircraft will continuously and automatically calculate the communication quality between the two remote controllers and the aircraft, automatically adjust the bit rate of the video transmission to ensure that both remote controllers can well receive the signal.

• The maximum transmission distance when using dual remote controllers is reduced by 20% compared to the transmission of a single remote controller.
• When using dual remote controllers, make sure that the antennas of both remote controllers are pointing to the aircraft (refer to the Adjusting the Antennas section for details), and there is no obstruction between each remote controller and the aircraft.
  Otherwise, the one with the poor signal may impair the communication quality of the other.

HDMI Settings
The touchscreen can be shared with a display screen via an HDMI cable. The resolution can be  set in Settings, Display, and then HDMI or in Camera View, HD settings, and then Video Output Resolution in the app.

Dual Control Mode
Inspire 3 supports Dual Control mode which allows two pilots to operate an aircraft simultaneously with remote controllers A and B. In this mode, both remote controllers have equal control of the aircraft. The roles of both remote controllers operating the aircraft are not assigned in advance. Instead, either pilot may gain control of the aircraft or the gimbal camera as needed, allowing for more flexibility during the operation.
Control over the aircraft is independent of control over the gimbal camera. When a remote controller gains control of the aircraft or the gimbal camera, the user can use the remote controller to operate the aircraft or control the movement of the gimbal camera respectively.

• In Dual Control mode, the aircraft can be connected with a DJI RC Plus remote controller and a DJI High-Bright Remote Monitor. Read the DJI PRO Ecosystem section for more information on the DJI High-Bright Remote Monitor.

Setting Dual Control Mode
Before using Dual Control mode, the pilot needs to link the aircraft with both remote controllers
A and B. Follow the steps below to link the remote controllers.

1. Launch DJI Pilot 2.
2. Enter the home screen and tap Remote Controller A/B to activate linking. During linking, the status LED of the remote controller will blink blue and the remote controller will beep. Press and hold the power button on the aircraft for at least five seconds. The aircraft power indicator will blink and beep twice to indicate that linking has started. When linking is successful, the aircraft rear LED indicators will blink green, the remote controller beeps twice, and the remote controller status LED turns solid green.
3. After that, the aircraft control button on the remote controller will turn green or blue, and the user can take control of the aircraft, while the aircraft control button of the other remote controller will turn white. Tap gimbal camera icon on the camera view in DJI Pilot 2 to gain control of the gimbal camera.

• Link the two remote controllers one by one. Make sure to link remote controller A with the aircraft first, and then link remote controller B.

Using Dual Control Mode

1. Make sure both remote controllers are linked and connected with the aircraft before using Dual Control mode. By default, the first remote controller connected with the aircraft gains control of both the aircraft and the gimbal camera, while the second remote controller is not given any control.
2. When a remote controller has control of a device, whether it is the aircraft or the gimbal camera, the pilot can control the device by pushing the control sticks, turning the dial, pressing the shortcut buttons, or tapping the app user interface. The operation is the same as using a single remote controller. However, when a remote controller does not have control of a device, the pilot is unable to control the device. Only the remote controller with control of the aircraft can be used to start or cancel RTH.
3. Either pilot can take over control of a device as needed. The aircraft control button will turn  blue when aircraft control is locked. Tap gimbal camera icon on the gimbal camera view in DJI Pilot 2 to gain control of the gimbal camera. The control sticks are used for operating the gimbal if the remote controller only has control over the gimbal camera. When the remote controller has full control, the control sticks are used for controlling the aircraft and the dials for adjusting gimbal movement.
4. In Dual Control mode, an aircraft control transfer mechanism will be triggered if the remote  controller with aircraft control is disconnected from the aircraft. When this happens, the connected remote controller will receive a notification that the user may manually take over aircraft control. If the pilot of the connected remote controller chooses not to take over aircraft control, the aircraft will automatically perform the failsafe action. If the pilot of the connected remote controller does not choose either option within a specified time period, the aircraft will also activate the failsafe action.
5. When the disconnected remote controller reconnects to the aircraft during the flight, if the aircraft control is not taken over by the connected remote controller, the aircraft control will be resumed to the remote controller before disconnection by default.
6. Only the remote controller with control of the gimbal camera can be used to adjust relevant settings for the gimbal and camera, and to download or playback media files.
7. Under normal circumstances, the pilots of both remote controllers can adjust flight-related settings, such as for the flight controller system, vision systems, batteries, and video transmission. However, if aircraft control is locked, only the remote controller with aircraft control can be used to adjust these settings.
8. Other non-flight-related operations can be performed using either remote controller.
9. The pilot of remote controller B cannot adjust settings for custom network RTK.
10. Remote controller A can be used to update the firmware of all modules at once when connected with the aircraft, but remote controller B can only be used to update the firmware of remote controller B.
11. Uploading Logs Using DJI Pilot 2: the operator can upload the logs of both the aircraft and remote controller A through remote controller A, and can upload the logs of remote controller B through remote controller B.
12. Remote controller B cannot be used to update the Fly Safe database.

When using the control sticks to move the aircraft: move the roll stick to circle the subject, pitch stick to alter the distance from the subject, throttle stick to change the altitude, and yaw stick to adjust the frame.
When the gimbal is in Free Mode: when the aircraft rotates, the gimbal orientation is pointing to the target all the time without following the rotation of the aircraft.
In Spotlight Pro mode, when the vision systems are working normally and the obstacle avoidance is set to Brake in the app, the aircraft will hover if an obstacle is detected. Note: obstacle avoidance is disabled in Sport mode.

• It is recommended to only track vehicles, boats, and people (but not children). Fly with caution when tracking other subjects.
• In supported moving subjects, vehicles refer to cars and small to medium-sized yachts.
• The tracking subject may inadvertently swap to another subject if they pass nearby to each other.
• Spotlight Pro is unavailable when the aircraft is on the ground.

Flight

This chapter introduces the safe flight practices and flight restrictions.

Flight
Make sure to have training and practice before operating any actual flight. Practice with the simulator in DJI Assistant 2 or fly under the guidance of experienced professionals. Pick a suitable area to fly in according to the following flight requirements and restrictions. Fly the aircraft below 120 m (400 ft). Any flight altitude higher than that may violate local laws and regulations. Make sure you understand and comply with the local laws and regulations before flying. Read the Safety Guidelines carefully to understand all safety precautions before flying.

Flight Environment Requirements

• Tall buildings and steel structures may affect the accuracy of the compass and the GNSS signal. It is recommended that the horizontal distance between the aircraft and buildings be kept at 15 m or more. Once the aircraft position or course drifts during flight, manually fly the aircraft away from the building and then fly to an open area and land.

• When flying in an environment surrounded by obstacles, make sure the vision system is enabled for flight safety.

• DO NOT fly the aircraft in severe weather conditions, including strong winds (speeds exceeding 14 m/s), sandstorms, snow, rain, smog, hail, lightning, tornadoes, or hurricanes.

• Only fly in open areas. Tall structures and large metal structures may affect the accuracy of the onboard compass and GNSS system. It is recommended to keep the aircraft at least 5 m away from structures.

• Avoid obstacles, crowds, high voltage power lines, trees, and bodies of water. It is recommended to keep the aircraft at least 3 m above water.

• Minimize interference by avoiding areas with high levels of electromagnetism such as locations near power lines, base stations, electrical substations, and broadcasting towers.

• Aircraft and battery performance is subject to environmental factors such as air density and temperature. DO NOT fly the aircraft higher than 3,800 m (12,467 ft) above sea level when using the foldable quick-release propellers, or higher than 7,000 m  (22,965 ft) above sea level when using the foldable quick-release propellers for high altitude. *

• Aircraft cannot use GNSS within the polar regions. Use the vision system when flying in such locations.

• DO NOT take off from moving objects such as cars, ships, and airplanes.

• To avoid affecting the motor service life, DO NOT take off or land the aircraft on sandy or dusty areas.

• DO NOT use the aircraft, remote controller, battery, and charging hub near accidents, fires, explosions, floods, tsunamis, avalanches, landslides, earthquakes, dust, or sandstorms.

• Use the charging hub in a temperature range of -20° to 40° C (-4° to 104° F).

• Operate the aircraft, battery, remote controller, and charging hub in a dry environment.

• DO NOT use the aircraft in dusty or humid environments.

• DO NOT use the charging hub in humid environments.

• Make sure the temperature and humidity is suitable for the gimbal camera during usage.

• This product shall not be used in potentially explosive atmosphere.

• Measured in a gentle breeze with the gimbal camera and lens installed on the aircraft. The value provided should be used for reference only.

Operating the Aircraft Responsibly
Observe the following rules to avoid non-compliant behaviour, serious injury, and property damage:

• DO NOT operate in the vicinity of manned aircraft. DO NOT interfere with the operations of manned aircraft. Be alert and avoid other aircraft at all times. Land immediately if necessary.
• DO NOT fly the aircraft in venues of major events, including but not limited to sporting events and concerts.
• DO NOT fly the aircraft without authorization in areas prohibited by local laws. Prohibited areas include airports, national borders, major cities and densely populated areas, venues of major events, areas where emergencies have occurred (such as forest fires), and locations with sensitive structures (such as nuclear power plants, power stations, hydropower plants, correctional facilities, heavily traveled roads, government facilities, and military zones).
• DO NOT fly the aircraft above the authorized altitude.
• Keep your aircraft within visual line of sight (VLOS).
• DO NOT use the aircraft to carry illegal or dangerous goods or payloads.
• Make sure you understand the nature of your flight operation (such as for recreation, public, or commercial use) and have obtained the corresponding approval and clearance from the related government agencies before flight. Consult with your local regulators for comprehensive definitions and specific requirements. Note that remote controlled aircraft may be banned from conducting commercial activities in certain countries and regions. Check and follow all local laws and ordinances before flying as those rules may differ from those stated here.
• Respect the privacy of others when using the camera. DO NOT conduct surveillance operations such as video recording or capturing images of any person, entity, event, performance, exhibition, or property without authorization or where there is an expectation of privacy, even if the image or video is captured for personal use.
• Be advised that in certain areas, the recording of images and videos from events, performances, exhibitions, or commercial properties by means of a camera may contravene copyright or other legal rights, even if the image or video was shot for personal use.

Flight Limits and GEO Zones
GEO (Geospatial Environment Online) System
DJI’s Geospatial Environment Online (GEO) System is a global information system that provides real-time information on flight safety and restriction updates and prevents UAVs from flying in restricted airspace. Under exceptional circumstances, restricted areas can be unlocked to allow flights in. Prior to that, the user must submit an unlocking request based on the current restriction level in the intended flight area.
The GEO system may not fully comply with local laws and regulations. Users shall be responsible for their own flight safety and must consult with the local authorities on the relevant legal and regulatory requirements before requesting to unlock a flight in a restricted area. For more information about the GEO system, visit https://fly-safe.dji.com.
Flight Limits
For safety reasons, flight limits are enabled by default to help users operate this aircraft safely.
Users can set flight limits on height and distance. Altitude limits, distance limits, and GEO zones function concurrently to manage flight safety when GNSS is available. Only altitude can be limited when GNSS is unavailable.
Flight Altitude and Distance Limits
Maximum flight altitude restricts the aircraft flight altitude, while maximum flight distance restricts the aircraft flight radius around the Home Point. These limits can be set using the DJI Pilot 2 app for improved flight safety.

Strong GNSS Signal

| Restriction| Prompt in DJI Pilot 2
Max Altitude| Altitude of the aircraft cannot exceed the
value set in DJI Pilot 2.| Aircraft approaching max flight altitude. Fly with caution.
Max Distance| The straight-line distance from the aircraft to the Home Point cannot exceed the max flight distance set in DJI Pilot 2.| Aircraft approaching max flight distance. Fly with caution.
Weak GNSS Signal
Max Altitude| The altitude is restricted to 60 m from the takeoff point if lighting is sufficient. The altitude is restricted to 3 m from the takeoff point if lighting is not sufficient and the infrared sensing system is operating. * The altitude is restricted to 60 m from the takeoff point if lighting is not sufficient
and the infrared sensing system is not operating.| Aircraft approaching max flight altitude. Fly with caution.
Max Distance| No limit| N/A

• A-mode is excluded. A-mode is restricted to 60 m.

  • In the case where an aircraft exceeds a specified limit, the pilot can still control the aircraft but is unable to fly the aircraft any closer to the restricted area.
  • For safety reasons, DO NOT fly aircraft near airports, highways, railway stations, metro stations, city centers, or other sensitive areas. Only fly the aircraft in areas that are within your direct line of sight.
  • Fly no higher than 120 m (400 ft) above ground level and stay away from any surrounding obstacles.
  • To fly above the default altitude limit, accept the disclaimer prompt to enable the new altitude limit.
  • Flight altitude restrictions vary in different regions. DO NOT fly above the maximum altitude set forth in your local laws and regulations.

GEO Zones
All GEO zones are listed on the DJI official website at https://fly- safe.dji.com and may be updated at any time. GEO zones are divided into different categories and include locations such as airports, flying fields where manned aircraft operate at low altitudes, borders between countries, and sensitive locations such as power plants.
There will be prompts in the DJI Pilot 2 app to fly in GEO zones.

• The settings and alerts provided by DJI on operations within GEO Zones are only to assist the user in ensuring flight safety and DO NOT guarantee full compliance with all local laws and regulations. Before each flight, the user is responsible for seeking advice on the relevant local laws, regulations, and requirements for the safety of their own aircraft.
• Flight-related functions will be affected to varying extent when the aircraft is near or inside a GEO Zone. This includes but is not limited to the aircraft slowing down, being unable to create a Home Point or flight task, and interruption of a flight task.

Calibrating the Compass
Calibrate the compass when prompted to do so by the DJI Pilot 2 app or the aircraft rear indicators. Observe the following rules when calibrating the compass:

• It is recommended to calibrate the compass to ensure the quality of the images and videos when features require high aircraft orientation accuracy, such as long-time exposure during hovering.
• DO NOT calibrate the compass in locations with strong magnetic interference, such as near magnets, parking lots, or construction sites with underground reinforced concrete structures.
• DO NOT carry ferromagnetic materials such as mobile phones during calibration.
• DJI Pilot 2 will display a prompt if the compass is affected by strong interference after calibration is complete. Follow the displayed instructions to resolve the compass issue.

Calibration Procedure
Perform the calibration in an open area and follow the steps below to complete the calibration.

1. Run the DJI Pilot 2 app and enter the camera view on the home screen. Tap Sensor Status, then Compass, and Calibrate Compass to start the calibration. The aircraft rear LED indicators will glow in solid yellow, which indicates that the calibration has started.
2. Hold the aircraft horizontally 1.5 m (4.92 ft) above the ground and rotate the aircraft 360 degrees. The aircraft rear LED indicators will glow in solid green.
3. Hold the aircraft vertically and rotate the aircraft 360 degrees.
4. Re-calibrate the aircraft if the aircraft rear LED indicators blink red.

• If the aircraft rear LED indicators blink red and yellow alternately after the calibration is complete, it indicates strong interference in the current location. Move your aircraft to a different location and try again.
• A prompt will appear in DJI Pilot 2 if compass calibration is required before takeoff. The prompt will disappear after the calibration is complete.
• If the compass calibration is complete, place the aircraft on the ground. If the prompt appears again in DJI Pilot 2, try moving the aircraft to a different location before recalibrating the compass.

Pre-Flight Checklist

1. Only use genuine parts that are in good condition. DO NOT modify or alter the aircraft, its components, or parts. Make sure that when installing any external devices that the total weight of the aircraft does not exceed the maximum takeoff weight. In addition, the external device must be installed in a location so that the center of gravity is maintained within the range of the aircraft top shell to keep the aircraft stable and that the vision systems, the infrared sensing systems, and the auxiliary lights are not blocked.

2. Make sure all devices, such as remote controller and intelligent batteries, are fully charged.

3. Ensure there are no foreign objects such as water, oil, soil, or sand inside of the aircraft or its components. The air vents of the aircraft, the cooling holes of the camera, and the ventilation holes of the motor are not blocked.

4. Make sure the propellers are securely mounted and not damaged or deformed. DO NOT use chipped or broken propellers.

5. Make sure the aircraft motors are clean and in good condition. Rotate the propeller to examine the motor and make sure the motor can rotate smoothly without abnormal sound. Otherwise, stop using the aircraft immediately and contact DJI Support.

6. Make sure the camera lens is clean and in good condition and the gimbal can rotate unobstructed.

7. Make sure the lenses of the vision systems, gimbal camera, FPV camera, the glass of the infrared sensors, and the auxiliary lights are clean and not blocked in any way.

8. Make sure the covers of ports have been closed firmly.

9. Make sure the flight area is outside any GEO zones, and flight conditions are suitable for flying the aircraft.

10. Place the aircraft on open and flat ground. Make sure there are no obstacles, buildings, or trees nearby and that the aircraft is 5 m away from the pilot. The pilot should be facing the rear of the aircraft.

11. Make sure that the ESC is beeping after powering on the aircraft.

12. Make sure DJI Pilot 2 is properly running to assist with the flight. Without the flight data recorded by the DJI Pilot 2 app in certain situations (including the loss of your aircraft), DJI may not be able to provide aftersales support to you or assume liability.
    13. Make sure DJI Pilot 2 and the aircraft firmware have been updated to the latest version.

13. If required before a flight, follow the prompts in the app to fix any abnormalities with the ESCs.

14. Make sure that the DJI Pilot 2 app displays at least 6 satellites.

15. Check if the Remote ID is up to date and working.

Starting/Stopping the Motors
Starting the Motors
A Combination Stick Command (CSC) is used to start the motors. Push both sticks to the inner or outer bottom corners to start the motors. Once the motors start spinning, release both sticks simultaneously. Stopping the Motors
The motors can be stopped in two ways:
Method 1: When the aircraft has landed, push the throttle stick down and hold. The motors will stop after three seconds.
Method 2: When the aircraft has landed, push the throttle stick down, and perform the same CSC used to start the motors. Release both sticks once the motors have stopped.

• If the motor is started unexpected, use CSC to stop motors immediately.

Flight Test
Takeoff/Landing Procedures

1.  Place the aircraft in an open, flat area with the aircraft rear facing towards the user.
2. Power on the remote controller and the aircraft.
3. Launch DJI Pilot 2 and enter the camera view.
4. Wait for the aircraft self-diagnostics to complete. If DJI Pilot 2 does not prompt any irregular warning, the user can start the motors.
5. Push the throttle stick up slowly to takeoff. When taking off, pay attention to the flight status display in the app and the remote controller vibration notification to ensure flight safety. If the throttle stick is released before takeoff is complete, the motors will enter an idle speed state.
6. To land, hover over a level surface and push the throttle stick down to descend.
7. After landing, push the throttle down and hold. The motors will stop after three seconds.
8. Power off the aircraft before the remote controller.

Post-Flight Checklist:

•   Make sure to perform a visual inspection so that the aircraft, remote controller, gimbal camera, Intelligent Batteries, and propellers are in good condition. Contact DJI support if any damage is noticed.
• Make sure that the camera lens and vision system sensors are clean.
• Make sure to store aircraft correctly before transporting it.
• Land the aircraft immediately at a safe location if prompted to do so in DJI Pilot 2.
• Make sure to operate the aircraft within the transmission range of the remote controller. Otherwise, the remote controller and aircraft may be disconnected, and failsafe will be triggered (default setting is RTH). Press the RTH button on the remote controller to initiate RTH (default failsafe setting) instead of powering off the remote controller.
• Tall buildings may adversely affect the failsafe function. Therefore, it is important to set an appropriate failsafe altitude before each flight. The RTH altitude is related to the Home Point. Make sure the RTH altitude is higher than any obstacle in the area.
• The aircraft cannot avoid obstacles during failsafe RTH when there is insufficient light. Exit RTH and use the remote controller to control the aircraft when the remote controller signal is normal.
• During RTH, continue to check the liveview and the aircraft altitude in case failsafe is disabled due to the GNSS signal being week.
• The Home Point can be updated manually. Make sure to avoid setting the Home Point inside or near a building to prevent collisions during RTH or landing.
• Return to Home and land the aircraft if an ESC warning prompt appears in DJI Pilot 2 concerning temperature, voltage, or an overload. When Return to Home is initiated, pay attention to the flight status display in DJI Pilot 2 to ensure flight safety.
• Avoid flying in confined spaces or in areas where the GNSS signal is weak. Otherwise, the Home Point may be inaccurate, leading to the distance error between the current aircraft and the Home Point displayed on the screen. Fly with caution.

GEO Awareness
Drone Geo-Zones and DJI Geo Zones
DJI is committed to maintaining a safe flying environment. This includes abiding by local regulations and Unmanned Geographical Zones (UGZs) defined by EU national authorities. DJI has its own Geospatial Environment Online system (GEO) with broader geographical zones, including regulated areas where flight may raise concerns. DJI’s GEO system has been running successfully for many years, effectively protecting flight safety and public safety in the absence of official UGZ databases.
In the future, DJI Geo zones will coexist with EU UGZs, as UGZs are still not available in many countries. Users are responsible for checking local regulations and for any flight restrictions where they intend to operate.
The GEO zones mentioned in the manual and DJI official website refers to the DJI Geo zones and Geo fencing function, not the UGZs for Geo awareness function required by regulations.
AGL (Above Ground Level) Statement
The vertical limits of Geo-awareness may use the AMSL altitude or the AGL height. The choice between these two references is specified individually for each UGZ. Neither AMSL altitude nor the AGL height is supported by this product. H (Height) appears in the app camera view, which is the height from the aircraft takeoff point to the aircraft. The height above the takeoff point may be used as an approximation but may differ more or less from the given altitude/height for a specific UGZ. The remote pilot remains responsible for not breaching the vertical limits of the UGZ.

DJI Geo Zones with Geo Fencing Function
DJI Geo zones are divided into seven categories with only five of them taking effect. If more than one restriction is set at the same position, the alert generated is in the following order: Restricted Zones > Authorization Zones > Altitude Zones > Enhanced Warning Zones > Warning Zones
Restricted Zones
Appear red in the DJI app. Users will be prompted with a warning message, and flight is prevented.
UA (Unmanned Aircraft) cannot fly or takeoff in these zones. Restricted Zones may be unlocked, to unlock contact [email protected] or go to Unlock A Zone at https://fly-safe.dji.com/. Authorization Zones
Appear blue in the app. Users will be prompted with a warning message, and flight is limited by default. UA cannot fly or takeoff in these zones unless authorized. Authorization Zones may be unlocked by authorized users using a DJI verified account. Altitude Zones
Altitude zones are zones with a limited altitude and appear in gray on the map. When approaching, users will receive a warning message in the app. Enhanced Warning Zones
A warning message will prompt users when the drone reaches the edge of the zones. Warning Zones
A warning message will prompt users when the drone reaches the edge of the zones. Regulatory Restricted Zones
Due to local regulations and policies, flights are prohibited within the scope of some special areas. (Example: Prisons)
Approved Zones for Light UAVs (China):
For Approved Zones, pilots of light UAVs flying at an altitude of 120 m or less are not required to obtain permission to fly. Pilots who are planning to fly medium-sized UAVs in Approved Zones at an altitude higher than 120 m, or in GEO Zones other than Approved Zones, must obtain permission via UTMISS before taking off.

FAR Remote ID Compliance Information
The aircraft complies with the requirements of 14 CFR Part 89:

• The aircraft automatically initiates a pre-flight self-test (PFST) of the Remote ID system before takeoff and cannot take off if it does not pass the PFST [1]  The results of the PFST of the Remote ID system can be viewed in a DJI flight control app such as DJI Pilot 2.
• The aircraft monitors the Remote ID system functionality from pre-flight to shut down. If the Remote ID system malfunctions or has a failure, an alarm information will be displayed in a DJI flight control app such as DJI Pilot 2.
• The user shall keep the DJI flight control app running in the foreground and always allow it to obtain the location information of the remote controller.

1. The pass criterion for PFST is that the hardware and software of the Remote ID required-data source and transmitter radio in the Remote ID system are functioning properly.
