  2. Ensure the landing area is flat and spacious, away from crowds or obstacles.
  3. The one-key landing function can only be activated when the drone flies within 10 meters of the home point.

Vision Pisitioning Mode

Notes: Put the drone on level ground, and ensure the front and back indicator lights turn solid before take off.

Vision Pisitioning System function

The Vision Positioning System is typically used in an indoor environment when GPS is weak or unavailable. It works best when the aircraft’s altitude is less than 10 meters.

The precision of the vision system is easily affected by the light strength and features of the surface textures. Once the image sensor not available, your aircraft will switch to Gesture Mode automatically Be cautious to operate the aircraft in the following situation:

  1. Fly fast at an altitude below 0.5m.
  2. Fly over monochrome surfaces (like pure black, pure red, pure red and pure green).
  3. Fly over strong light reflective surfaces or surfaces prone to reflection.
  4. Fly over water or transparent object surfaces.
  5. Fly over moving object surfaces (such as crowds, swaying juggles and glass).
  6. Fly over an area where light changes dramatically and rapidly.
  7. Fly over surfaces extremely dark (lux<10) or extremely bright (lux>10,000)
  8. Fly over surfaces without clear textures.
  9. Fly over surfaces with highly repeating textures (small grid brick in the same color).
  10. Flying speed should be controlled within a moderate range. When the aircraft is 1 meter against the ground, the flying speed should not be over 5m/s; When the aircraft is 2 meters against the ground, the flying speed should not be over 14m/s.• Keep sensors clean at all times• The vision system is only effective when the aircraft is within the altitude range of 10 meters.• Make sure that the light is bright enough and the surfaces is with clear textures so that the vision system can acquire the movement information through recognizing the ground textures.

Outdoor GPS Mode

• The vision system may not function properly when the aircraft is flying over water, low light ground, and surfaces without clear patterns or textures.• Do not use another ultrasonic device with a frequency of 40KHz when the vision system is in operation.

Notes:

  1. Ensure at least 8 GPS satellites have been searched to well receive the GPS signal.
  2. 1t is able to handle a smooth flight and control functions of position hold, altitude hold, and emergency stop in outdoor GPS mode.
  3. Switch to indoor altitude hold mode when there is no GPS signal.
  4. Do not turn on the outdoor GPS mode in an environment surrounded by narrow lanes and tall buildings.

Return to Home Mode 

Notes:

  1. .Ensure that the GPS position signal is well-received (at least 8 satellites ).
  2. Ensure no barriers outstand the flying height along the way of the flight path during return before switching on “Return to Home Mode”.
  3. Ensure the takeoff point is away from crowds and other barriers. Switch on “Return to Home Mode” and the drone would automatically return to home.Press this button and buzzer sounds ‘DI” to start a one-key return drone t will return to the latest recorded location During the return flight, the user can control the flight altitude by remote control.

Intelligent Return to Home Under Low Voltage

A: When the drone is at low voltage and flies at an altitude of over 20 meters, it would automatically return home at the same altitude and then descend.B: When the drone is at low voltage and flies at an altitude lower than 20 meters, it would ascend to the altitude of 20 meters before returning home and descending.

Notes:

  1. Ensure at least 8 GPS satellites have been searched to well receive the GPS signal. 0 Home Point
  2. Do not touch other buttons when the drone has entered low voltage returns to home mode.
  3. When the low voltage alarm triggers, please manually return the drone back or turn on auto return to home mode.

Intelligent low voltage return is introduced
