Prerequisites
Refer to the enclosed Super Quick Start Guide (SQSG) if you need illustrated guidance to get these
quick prerequisites out of the way.
1. Wake up your ANAFI U SA’s smart battery. Charge the battery using one of the enclosed USB-
A to USB-C cables and the enclosed charger. The battery’s LEDs start flashing indicating that
the battery is awake. Let it charge while you read. Parrot recommends you always run a full
charge of your smart battery before flying ANAFI USA.
2. Download FreeFlight 6 USA on your iOS or Android smartphone. ANAFI U SA requires
FreeFlight 6 USA to fly. The app will enable you to update your Skycontroller and ANAFI USA
when you power them on for the first time.
When you have downloaded and installed FreeFlight 6 USA, turn your Skycontroller on (if you have a
Skycontroller 3: unfold the central arm; if you have a Skycontroller 4: press the ON/OFF button).
Use your device’s USB cable to connect it to Skycontroller USB port, and install it on the device holder,
as shown in the enclosed SQSG.
A prompt appears on your screen, which invites you to allow communication between your device and
the controller.
Tap Allow (iOS), or OK (Android): FreeFlight 6 USA runs. After your device displays the app’s splash
screen, you get to FreeFlight 6 USA homepage.
If the prompt does not appear on your screen when you connect your device to your Skycontroller,
launch FreeFlight 6 USA manually.
3. Tap the green FLY box on the homepage of FreeFlight 6 USA to launch the initial updates.
FreeFlight 6 USA automatically updates the Skycontroller first, and ANAFI USA second.
4. Skycontroller update: tap the green CONTINUE box to proceed. FreeFlight 6 USA displays an
animation and a progress circle on a screen labelled Preparing your controller. When the
update is finished, the screen displays Your controller is ready. Tap CONTINUE to access the
update of ANAFI USA (screenshots below are Android).
