Signal Strength Indicator
Flight Preparation
Signal strength icon shows the strength of the received signal. The more,
the better. If the signal is weak or irregular do not fly the drone in the
same area.
● DO NOT attempt to fly over populated areas in case you lose
connection.
● During the Failsafe Return procedure, the drone can not avoid
obstacles.
● The drone cannot Return-to-Home if the GPS signal is weak (satellite
number is less than 7).
● If there is no GPS signal and the remote controller signal is lost for
more than 6 seconds, the drone will not Return-to-Home but instead
descend slowly until it lands on the ground and locks itself.
1. Link the remote controller with the drone.
2. Perform the drone initialization detection.
3. Perform the drone compass calibration.
4. Unlock the drone.
5. Slowly push the throttle stick upward and the drone will take off.
6. After you are done with your flight you must slowly pull the throttle
stick to bottom position to safely land the drone. Once it has landed the
drone will automatically lock itself.
7. Take out the battery from battery compartment of the drone and
store or recharge it for your next flight.
