7. Flight
This chapter introduces safe flight practices and requirements.
7.1 Requirements of Flight Environment
1. Do not use the product in severe weather, such as gale, rain, snow and fog.
2. Only fly in open areas. Tall structures and large metal structures may affect the accuracy of the onboard
compass and GPS system and result in positioning failure. It is recommended to keep the drone at least 5m
away from structures.
3. Control the product within your sight and keep away from the obstacles and crowds.
4. Do not use the product in places with high-voltage power lines, telecommunication base station or launching
tower, to avoid interference of the remote controller.
5. Please use the product with caution when altitude is over 3,000m for the flight performance can be affected
when the performance of drone battery and power system is weakened due to environment factor.
7.2 Precautions of Flight
1. Check if the remote controller, intelligent flight battery and mobile device are fully charged.
2. Check if the drone is intact and propellers are installed correctly.
3. Check if the camera is working normally after power-on.
4. Check if App is running normally.
5. Check if SD card is inserted and make sure camera is clean.
6. Make sure the drone takes off on flat and hard surface, instead of sandstone or bush; the drone may fail to
be unlocked if it has major vibration.
7. Please be careful when the done takes off on surface of moving objects, such as running vehicle and ship.
8. GPS positioning and waypoint flight will be disabled in the south and north polar.
9. Do not use the product in extremely cold or hot place to avoid hazards.
7.4 Flight Mode
ATOM has three flight modes-Video/Normal/Sport, which can be switched via the App.
Video Mode
Ascent speed: 2m/s, descent speed: 2m/s, flight speed: 6m/s
The drone enters Beginner Mode by default when being used for the first time. The flight speed will be limited to
the same as in Video Mode to allow you to familiarize yourself with the controls of the drone.
Normal Mode
Ascent speed: 4m/s, descent speed: 3m/s, flight speed: 10m/s
You can exit Beginner Mode after you have mastered adequate flight skills, and the drone will switch to Normal
Mode by default.
Sport Mode
Ascent speed: 5m/s, descent speed: 4m/s, flight speed: 16m/s
Video mode is recommended for aerial photography. Sport mode is recommended if you would like to get a
speedy flight experience.
Please fly with caution in Sport Mode as the responsiveness of the drone significantly increases, which means a
small control stick movement on the remote controller translates into the drone moving a large distance.
It is advised to tap and follow the animated guide to operate for first-time users.
7.3 Connection
Please follow the steps below:
1. Please finish the steps in “3.5 Preparing the Remote Controller” and turn on the remote controller.
2. Please finish the steps in “3.4 Preparing the drone” and turn on the drone.
3. Launch App to view the connection status. Connection is finished when it shows .
