aircraft pairing

1. Put the battery of the aircraft into the battery slot of the aircraft in the correct direction, place the aircraft on level ground, first press the battery switch briefly, then press and hold the battery switch for 5 seconds, the aircraft light flashes slowly, indicating that the power-on is successful.
2. Turn on the power of the remote control, hear a beep, and the power indicator of the remote control is always on. The code is completed.

Airplane mode switch

Note:
The product is powered on by default GPS mode (MODE2). In the case of less than 8 satellites, the drone can only unlock the motor but cannot take off. If you want to take off, you need to switch the optical flow mode before the satellite positioning is completed. Press and hold the GPS button for 5 seconds (the switching method is shown on the right), after the switch is successful, the remote control will make a beep, and the drone will not have all GPS-related functions at this time. Pay attention to the flight height and distance to avoid losing the drone!

Note
After GPS positioning is completed, it cannot be switched to optical flow mode. If you want to switch, you need to turn off the drone and the remote controller and restart.

Compass Calibration

Compass calibration consists of two steps:

• step 1:
  After the aircraft is successfully paired, place it on a flat surface, press the geomagnetic calibration button to turn the aircraft as indicated in the picture, rotate it horizontally for about 3 circles, and the remote control beeps until the indicator light stays on after the aircraft.

• Step 2:
  Put the nose of the aircraft up and “upright”, as shown in the figure below, rotate the fuselage about 3 times, and the remote control beeps until the front indicator of the aircraft is always on, and the compass calibration is completed.

Note:
If the compass of the drone is messed up and the drone is unlocked without calibration, the drone will be enabled to protect the program and cannot take off.

Note: The best distance is 1 meter above the ground during calibration

• Do not calibrate in areas with strong magnetic fields, such as magnetic mines, parking lots, construction areas with underground steel bars, etc.
• During calibration, do not carry ferromagnetic substances, such as keys, mobile phones, etc. with you.
• Do not calibrate near large pieces of metal.

Gyro Calibration

After the code alignment is successful, put the aircraft on the horizontal ground, and press the remote controller briefly as shown in the following figure to give a “drip” sound. At this time, the front and rear indicator lights flash quickly, and the gyroscope enters the calibration state. When the indicator light changes from flash to constant light, the calibration is completed.

• When calibrating the gyroscope, be sure to place the aircraft on a level surface, otherwise the flight will be affected.

Star search:
After the compass calibration is completed, the aircraft is placed flat on the horizontal surface, the aircraft will automatically search for stars and the rear indicator light of the aircraft will change from slow flashing to steady light. Push the stick to 45° in the lower left corner, and at the same time push the right stick to 45° in the lower right corner to unlock and take off.

• Reminder: Please ensure that the take-off environment is open and the satellite signal is greater than 7 satellites before take-off.
• In GPS mode, the drone will not be able to take off until the GPS positioning is completed.

Basic Flight

basic flight steps

1. Pair the remote controller with the aircraft, and the aircraft is initialized.
2. Compass calibration.
3. Connect the mobile phone Wi-fi to the aircraft and open the mobile APP.
4. After the gyroscope of the aircraft is detected, wait for the collection of stars, usually 60-80 seconds (more than 7), until the indicator light of the aircraft is always on.
5. Push the left joystick of the remote control to 45° in the lower left corner, and push the right joystick to 45° in the lower right corner. After unlocking, the aircraft starts.

pre-flight inspection

1. Check whether the batteries of the remote controller and aircraft are fully charged.
2. Whether the fan blades are installed correctly.
3. Whether the compass is calibrated successfully.
4. Whether the star received is normal (more than 7 stars).
5. Whether the motor starts normally after the power is turned on and unlocked.

flight control method

Servo function
When flying, you can even turn the wheel to adjust the camera angle.

GPS switch function
It is recommended to use GPS mode in outdoor open areas to calibrate the geomagnetic search for satellites, which can be used for long-distance flight operations. If the satellite cannot be searched indoors, turn off the GPS switch and fly in the open space indoors. (Note: After turning off the GPS function, the flight does not have a series of GPS functions such as low-power return, one-key return, etc. Please pay attention to the flight distance and altitude when using it)

One-key return function
After the GPS function is turned on outdoors and the satellite search is calibrated to take off, the drone will fly far away or the drone is in a low- power state. Press the one-key return button, and the drone will return to the initial take-off position.

return flight
The aircraft has a return-to-home function. If the home point is successfully recorded before takeoff, the aircraft will automatically return to the home point and land when the communication signal between the remote control and the aircraft is lost or when the return button is pressed to prevent accidents. There are three different ways to return the aircraft, which are:

1. One-key return
2. Out-of-control return
3. Low battery return.

Home point:
When the GPS receives more than 7 stars for the first time during takeoff or flight, it will record the current position of the aircraft as the home point.

One key return
When the GPS signal is good (the number of satellites is greater than 7), you can start the aircraft to return home by pressing the button below on the remote control. The process of returning home is the same as that of the uncontrolled return. The difference is that when the aircraft returns and lands, the user can use the joystick to control the aircraft to avoid obstacles. Press the ” ” button to exit the return home, and the user can regain control.

runaway return
The GPS signal is good (the number of GPS satellites is greater than 7), the compass is working normally, and after the aircraft successfully records the home point, if the remote control signal continues to be interrupted for more than 6 seconds, the flight control system will take over the control of the aircraft and control the aircraft to fly back to the recorded return point. point. If the remote control signal is restored during the flight, the return- to-home process will continue, but the user can cancel the return-to-home through the remote control return button and regain control of the aircraft.

Notes for return flight:

• During the auto-return process, the aircraft cannot avoid obstacles.
• When the GPS signal is poor or the GPS does not work, you cannot return home.
• If the aircraft does not receive satellites and the remote control signal continues to be interrupted for more than 6 seconds,

The aircraft will not be able to return home, so it will descend slowly until it locks on landing.

low battery return
The indicator light will flash slowly after the low voltage of the aircraft. At this time, the aircraft will automatically return to around 20 meters from the take-off point.

• When the voltage of the aircraft is lower than the safe value, it will automatically land at the home point

Reminder:
The aircraft is in a low-power return-to-home state, and the remote control cannot cancel the return-to-home.

Photo/Video
During the flight, you can use the camera or video on the remote control to record the images captured during the flight. Short press the camera button on the remote control, and the camera takes a photo, long press the camera button on the remote control, and the camera starts recording, and long press the button again. Exit recording mode.

GPS function and precautions for use

The working principle of GPS function and precautions for use

• After the UAV and the remote control are successfully paired, the GPS module on the UAV will be connected to the satellite.
• After the satellite accuracy reaches the positioning standard, the remote control displays MODE 2, that is, the GPS positioning is completed, and the UAV remembers the take-off point.

When taking off in GPS mode, if the signal is interrupted, it is generally divided into the following two situations:

1. The signal of the UAV and the remote control is disconnected: When the signal of the UAV and the remote control is interrupted for more than 6 seconds due to over-distance or signal interference, and the GPS signal of the UAV is normal, the UAV will turn off the signal and return to the take-off point.
2. UAV GPS signal interruption: When encountering large obstructions, signal interference, etc., it may directly cause the UAV to fail to receive satellite signals, the UAV GPS signal is interrupted, the UAV cannot locate, and the signal cannot pass through the interruption. Return to home or one-key return to return to the take-off point.

The influence of temperature and environment on the use of UAV lithium battery:

1. The temperature has a certain influence on the lithium battery: the best use temperature of the battery is 20 ° C ~ 30 ° C, the low-temperature environment will reduce the activity of lithium ions, make the battery discharge capacity weaker, and shorten the use time.
2. The influence of the flight environment on the battery life. When the UAV encounters a strong wind or is flying against the wind, the resistance will lead to fast power consumption and shorten the battery life. Therefore, before flying outdoors, please pay attention to the weather and the surrounding environment. If the temperature is low and the wind is strong or you are flying against the wind, be careful not to fly high and far, and return to the flight ahead of time when the battery power is sufficient to avoid being unable to complete the return flight due to insufficient power halfway.

Safety Guidelines

To avoid unforeseen circumstances, the following safety guidelines should be followed when flying a drone:

• Get a good GPS signal before taking off
• Keep both hands to control the aircraft at all times
• Check the accessories and the appearance of the body to ensure that the device is fully charged
• Fly at a safe altitude and avoid canyons
• Fly at a safe height and avoid buildings with large height differences such as tall buildings
• Avoid places with large signal interference such as signal towers and wire towers
• Flying in open space and line of sight Never fly over people, animals, or moving vehicles for safety reasons
• Stay awake and do not fly after drinking
• Comply with local laws, and check relevant laws before flying
