Potensic ATOM 2 - Flight; Requirements of Flight Environment

8. Flight
This chapter introduces safe ight practices and requirements.
8.1 Requirements of Flight Environment
01. Do not y in adverse weather conditions such as strong winds, rain, snow, hail, or dense fog.
02. Choose an open area free of tall buildings for your ight. Structures with signicant steel reinforcement
can inteere with the compass and block GNSS signals, leading to poor or failed positioning. Ensure you
hear the voice prompt "HOME point updated" before continuing your ight. If ying near tall buildings,
HOME point accuracy may be compromised, so closely monitor the drone’s position and manually
control the landing as it nears the HOME point.
03. Ensure the drone remains within visual line of sight (VLOS) during ight to avoid GNSS signal blockage
by mountains or trees. For beyond-visual-line-of-sight (BVLOS) ights, ensure the drone is in good
condition, you possess the necessa pilot qualications, and the ight complies with local laws and
regulations.
04. Fly away from obstacles, crowds, water suaces, airpos, highways, high-speed train stations, and
urban areas unless you have obtained relevant permissions or approvals according to local laws and
regulations.
05. Avoid ying near high-voltage power lines, communication base stations, or transmission towers to
prevent signal inteerence with the remote controller.
06. Exercise caution when ying above 3000 m (9842 ft), as batte and propulsion system peormance
may decrease due to environmental factors. Do not exceed the specied altitude (2000 m/6562 ft when
propeller guards are installed).
07. Braking distance increases with altitude. Allow sucient braking distance for safe ight in high-altitude
regions.
08. In polar regions, the drone cannot use GNSS for positioning. Please y with caution.
09. Fly only in well-lit environments with clear suace textures and minimal glare. Daytime ights only.
10. Avoid ying near ocks of birds.
11. Exercise caution when taking o from moving suaces (such as cars or boats). Do not take o from
uniform or highly reective suaces (e.g., car roofs, monochrome tiles, glass).
12. Choose at, hard suaces for takeo. Avoid gravel or bushy areas. Excessive vibration before unlocking
the motors may prevent takeo.
13. Be cautious when taking o from dese or sandy beach suaces to prevent dust from entering the
drone.
14. Do not use the drone in ammable or explosive environments.
15. Avoid ying in extremely cold or hot conditions to prevent hazards.
16. Use the drone, remote controller, sma batte, charging cable, and charging hub only in d
environments.
17. Do not operate the drone, remote controller, sma batte, charging cable, or charging hub in
hazardous conditions such as accident sites, res, explosions, oods, tsunamis, avalanches, landslides,
eahquakes, dusty environments, or sandstorms. Avoid salt spray and mold exposure during operation.
