2. Battery off
3. When the battery is on, press and hold the battery on/off key until the power indicator goes out
4. In the battery-on state, if it is unable to detect the connection between the battery and the aircraft, the battery will automatically turned off after 90 seconds. Press this button again to activate it and to power on.

Battery level indicator
Definition of battery level indicator: the color of battery level indicator is green Charging: (The charging box was adopted for one-to-many charging, and the use of charging box is explained separately)

Discharging

Aircraft startup/shutdown instructions

• Startup: Insert the aircraft battery into the aircraft battery compartment after it is turned on (please insert the battery into battery compartment within 30 seconds after it is turned on, otherwise the battery will be turned off automatically), a sound of aircraft startup will be given, and the light will be turn on, indicating the successful startup.
• Shut down: unplug the battery directly to shut down.
• Restart: It can be restarted by the upper computer or unplugging the battery.

Aircraft calibration and lamp signal

1. Non-calibration status lights
2. After inserting USB and connecting successfully, the white light flashes at high frequency for 2 seconds. (All lights can be interrupted, and they will return to their original state after flashing for 2 seconds)
3. When the battery level is less than 5%, it flashes red
4. Hardware failures such as IMU, barometer or magnetometer: white, blue and purple flash.
5. Server is not connected: the white light is normally on
6. Upgrading the flight control and transmitting the dance steps: the purple light is normally on (in case the communication is occupied in the process of upgrading or transmitting, the instructions of the upper computer may not be processed)
7. Automatic numbering
8. Activate the automatic numbering function, calibrate the No. 0 aircraft, on which the red, green and blue lights alternate rapidly. When the numbering is completed over 90%, the server will send a light control instruction, commanding the same light color to be displayed in the same row or in the same row and lighting red, green, and the secondary shift control will be performed on the lights in the same row or in the same row (to prevent dead lights, the rows and columns are of the same color)
9. Series numbers that are not within the specified range of dance steps (i.e., the number of aircrafts are more than the number of dance steps): orange-red (RGB: 255, 61, 0) lights will be normally on.
10. After automatic numbering is stopped, all lights return to their original state.

• Note: In the process of number matching, if the first, second, third, fourth and fifth lights with high priority appear in an aircraft, the automatic numbering lamp signal will be lit according to the lights with high priority. 7. Manually modify the serial number (including matching the serial number through USB), and the blue color is normally on for 4 seconds after successful matching. 8.  When the upper computer selects the aircraft, the orange-red (RGB: 255, 61, 0) light flashes; when the selection is closed, the light goes off; if there is an instruction from the upper computer, it will light up according to the instruction. 9. Prepare for take-off: the forest green is normally on. 10. Countdown to take-off: the indigo is normally on. 11. During the flight of dance steps, only the lights of dance steps shall be executed, and no other light control instructions shall be executed. 12. In the dance flight, when the battery level is low, the lights are turned off and the plane lands. If the aircraft positioning is abnormal, the lights will be turned off and the aircraft will land. 13. If there are duplicate aircraft numbers, the orange-red (RGB: 255, 61, 0) lights are normally on. 14. Aircraft positioning status:
  • Fix: green light is normally on
  • Float: yellow light is normally on
  • GPS: purple light flashes
  • Calibration status (note: when entering a calibration status, it will be no longer controlled by external lights)

Calibration magnetometer
Send the magnetic calibration instruction through the upper computer, and rotate the aircraft as shown in the following figures:

1. Horizontal calibration: the blue light is normally on. Rotate the aircraft horizontally as shown above until the blue light flashes.
2. Vertical calibration: the blue light flashes. Rotate the aircraft vertically as shown above until the exit blue light flashes.
3. Calibration succeeded: return to the original lighting status.
4. Calibration failure: it will be always in the calibration status. For example, if the vertical calibration is unsuccessful, the blue light flashes until it receives the calibration exit instruction.

IMU calibration
Send the IMU calibration instruction through the upper computer, and then put the six planes of the aircraft horizontally and statically as shown in the following figures:

1. When the previous one is detected to be uncalibrated, the yellow light is normally on (the green light is normally on after calibration is completed); When the previous one is detected to be calibrated, the green light is normally on;
2. When the previous data acquisition is finished, the motor sounds (at the same time, the green light is normally on). After the data acquisition of all six planes is completed, and the motor will send out a sound prompt of self-inspection.
3. If the final calibration is successful, the green light flashes for three seconds. If the final calibration fails, the red light flashes for three seconds.

Propeller replacement

• The new propeller blades must rotate in the same direction as the original propeller blades. Attention should be paid to clockwise and counterclockwise directions.
• Pay attention to whether the propeller screws are loose or not, so as to avoid the danger caused by blade falling off in flight. Every 10 hours of accumulated flight, the blades must be checked and reinforced.
