4.7.1 Three-Axis Gimbal
ATOM is equipped with a 3-axis gimbal, allowing you to capture
clear and stable images and videos. The control pitch range is from
+20° to -90°, the control roll and yaw range is from +10° to -10°.
The pitch angle of the gimbal can be adjusted by scrolling the
gimbal dial on the remote controller.
In Video Mode, the control pitch range of the gimbal is +20° to -90°;
Otherwise, the control pitch range is 0° to -90°.
Make sure to remove the gimbal protector before powering on the drone.
After each startup the default tilt angle of the gimbal is 0°(namely the horizontal view)
DO NOT collide, tap or apply external force to the gimbal to avoid damaging the precision elements inside.
Make sure that there are no objects on or around the gimbal and the lens is not dirty before taking off.
The gimbal is connected to the drone through elastic and shock absorption support, to eliminate camera
vibration. Do not pull the gimbal by force. For any damage of shock absorption support, please contact the
after-sales team for repairing.
DO NOT modify the gimbal or stick objects on it, otherwise this will cause the gimbal to shake or lead to
permanent gimbal motor damage.

Basic Parameters
The gimbal may shake when flying in Sport Mode or strong wind. It is recommended to fly the drone in Video
Mode to acquire optimal gimbal stabilization.
Do not touch the lens after recording for a long period of time to avoid scald.
Do not record video when the drone is not flying; otherwise the drone will trigger overheat protection.
The sensor will crop out the edges at 1080P@60/50fps, it's simply capturing a central section of what the
full-frame sensor would capture, and FOV is about 36°.
4.7.3 Image Storage
The videos and pictures recorded by ATOM will be stored in SD card, instead of App or user’s album. Make sure
to insert SD card prior to flight. Otherwise, it is unable to record and shoot.
User can preview and download the videos and pictures (the drone and the remote controller should be
connected) in App.
SD Card Requirements
File format: FAT32, exFAT
Capacity: 4G-256G
Speed requirements: It is suggested to use SD card above U1 (UHS Speed Class 1) or C10 (Class 10)
The video downloaded from App is just 720P image used in video transmission. Please read SD card with
computer or other device in order to acquire videos of higher definition.
The recording can be terminated due to slow write-in when using the U1/C10 SD cards of certain brands.
If important data are stored in your SD card, please backup them properly.
Do not insert or unplug the SD card when the product is powered on. It may lead to data damage or loss, or
even SD card damage when inserting or unplugging SD card during video recording.
Potensic does not bear responsibility for any loss due to user’s misoperation of SD card.
