Dear Sir or Madam,
7LineMedia LLC seeks exemption from the following sections of 14 C.F.R.:

14 C.F.R. 21 14 C.F.R. 45.23 (b) 14 C.F.R. 61.113 (a) & (b) 14 C.F.R. 91.7 (a) 14 C.F.R. 91.9 (b) (2) 14 C.F.R. 91.103 14 C.F.R. 91.109 14 C.F.R. 91.119 14 C.F.R. 91.121 14 C.F.R. 91.151 (a) 14 C.F.R. 91.203 (a) & (b) 14 C.F.R. 91.405 (a) 14 C.F.R. 407 (a) (1) 14 C.F.R. 409 (a) (2) 14 C.F.R. 417 (a) & (b)
Pursuant to Section 333 of the FAA Modernization and Reform Act of 2012 (the Reform Act) and 14 C.F.R. Part 11, 7LineMedia LLC (herein referred to as “applicant”), operator of Small Unmanned Aircraft Systems (“sUASs”) equipped to conduct aerial videography and photography for the motion picture, television, and commercial videography industry for closed set filming, hereby applies for an exemption from the listed Federal Aviation Regulations (“FARs”) to allow commercial operation of its sUASs, so long as such operations are conducted within and under the conditions outlined herein or as may be established by the FAA as required by Section 333.
As described more fully below, the requested exemption would permit the operation of small, unmanned sUAS under controlled conditions in the NAS that is 1) limited 2) predetermined 3) controlled as to access. Approval of this exemption would thereby enhance safety and fulfill the Secretary of Transportation’s (the FAA Administrator’s) responsibilities to “...establish requirements for the safe operation of such aircraft systems in the national airspace system.” Section 333(c) of the Reform Act.

Page 1This exemption application is expressly submitted to fulfill Congress’ goal in passing Section 333 (a) through (c) of the Reform Act. This law directs the Secretary of Transportation to consider whether certain unmanned aircraft systems may operate safely in the national airspace system (NAS) before completion of the rulemaking required under Section 332 of the Reform Act. In making this determination, the Secretary is required to determine which types of UASs do not create a hazard to users of the NAS or the public or pose a threat to national security in light of the following:
• The UAS’s size, weight, speed, and operational capability;

• Operation of the UAS in close proximity to airports and populated areas; and

• Operation of the UAS within visual line of sight of the operator.
Lastly, if the Secretary determines that such vehicles “may operate safely in the national airspace system, the Secretary shall establish requirements for the safe operation of such aircraft in the national airspace system.” Id. § 333 (c) (emphasis added). The Federal Aviation Act expressly grants the FAA the authority to issue exemptions. This statutory authority by its terms includes exempting civil aircraft, as the term is defined under §40101 of the Act, that includes sUASs, from the requirement that all civil aircraft must have a current airworthiness certificate.
The Administrator may grant an exemption from a requirement of a regulation prescribed under subsection (a) or (b) of this section or any sections 44702-44716 of this title if the Administrator finds the exemption in the public interest. 49 U.S.C. § 44701 (f) See also 49 U.S.C. § 44711 (a); 49 U.S.C. § 44704; 14 C.F.R. § 91.203 (a) (1). The applicant’s sUASs are rotorcraft, weighing 55 lbs. or fewer, including payload. They operate, under normal conditions at a speed of no more than 40 knots and have the capability to hover, and move in the vertical and horizontal plane simultaneously. They will operate only in line of sight and will operate only within a predetermined and closed off property area under the permission of the property representative. Such operations will insure that the sUAS will “not create a hazard to users of the national airspace system or the public” as per the Reform Act Section 333 (b). Given the small size of the sUASs involved, the restricted sterile environment within which they will operate, and the fact that they will be flown by an FAA licensed aircraft pilot, the applicant falls squarely within that zone of safety (an equivalent level of safety) in which Congress envisioned that the FAA must, by exemption, allow commercial operations of UASs to commence immediately. Also due to the size of the UASs and the restricted areas in which the relevant sUASs will operate, approval of the application presents no national security issue. Given the clear direction in Section 333 of the Reform Act, the authority contained in the Federal Aviation Act, as amended; the strong equivalent level of safety surrounding the proposed operations, and the significant public benefit, including enhanced safety, reduction in environmental impacts, including reduced emissions associated with allowing UASs for movie and commercial videography operations, the grant of the requested exemptions is in the public interest. Accordingly, the applicant respectfully requests that the FAA grant the requested exemption without delay.

Page 2EQUIVALENT LEVEL OF SAFETY
The applicant proposes that the exemption requested herein apply to civil aircraft that have the characteristics and that operate with the limitations listed herein. These limitations provide for at least an equivalent or even higher level of safety to operations under the current regulatory structure because the proposed operations are conducted
on closed off property under the permission of the property owner or property representative. Proposed limitations and conditions to which applicant agrees to be bound when conducting commercial operations under an FAA issued exemption:
• The PIC will hold a current ASEL (airplane, single engine, land) certificate, and either an FAA-issued airman medical certificate, or a current U.S. driver’s license.
Operation of the applicant’s sUAS will be limited to the applicant’s sole and primary pilot who meets these criteria who’s certification’s are listed below:
• The sUAS will weigh no more than 55 lbs.
• Flights operations will be outside of five (5) nautical miles from any airport reference point (ARP). If asked to operate within five (5) miles of an airport, the applicant will contact the airport's manager and control tower with all flight plans, as well as the FAA through a normal filing of a Form 7711-1 (or its equivalent) with the appropriate FSDO. Only upon approval of flight plans from all entities will we agree to, and conduct, any operation within five (5) miles of an airport.
• Flights will be operated within line of sight (un-aided) of a pilot and/or observer.
• Maximum total flight time for each operational flight will be 20 minutes. Flights will be terminated at 20% battery power reserve should that occur prior to the 20 minute limit, and no further flights shall be commenced on the same batteries unless they hold enough energy for a minimum of 5 minutes of flight time, or the minimum recommended by the craft manufacturer.
• All operations shall be conducted in accordance with an ATO-issued COA
• Flights will be operated at an altitude of no more than 400 feet AGL or, not more than 200 feet above an elevated platform from which filming is planned. If a structure being filmed or photographed has a height which exceeds 400 feet AGL, the UAS will not exceed 100 feet in height above the highest point on that structure.
• Minimum crew for each operation will consist of the sUAS Pilot, and the Visual Observer.

Page 3• sUAS Pilot will be Pilot in Command (PIC). The PIC will have a minimum of 3 0 hours of flight time with the specific sUAS equipment the applicant operates. The experience of the PIC will be certified by the applicant through background checks and, if necessary, testing.
• Applicant will maintain flight logs of all PICs it employs, and provide full transparency to the FAA regarding the logs and records of these PICs, as per 14 CFR § 61.51(b ), • Flights will be operated at a lateral distance of at least 100 feet from any inhabited structures, buildings, vehicles, vessels, or people not associated with the operation or who have not signed a waiver in advance of the operation.
• A briefing will be conducted in regard to the planned sUAS operations prior to each day’s production activities. It will be mandatory that all personnel involved with the operational duties of the flight within the boundaries of the safety perimeter be present for this briefing.
• The operator will file an FAA Form 7711-1, or its equivalent, as modified in light of the requested exemption, with the appropriate local Flight Standards District Office.
• The operator will obtain the consent of all persons involved in the filming and ensure that only consenting persons will be allowed within 100 feet of the flight operation, and this radius may be reduced to 30 feet based upon an equivalent level of safety determination. With the advanced permission of the relevant FSDO, operations at closer range can be approved.
• PIC and Visual Observer will have been trained in the operation of the specific sUAS equipment used by the applicant, and received up-to-date information on the particular sUAS to be operated.
• The PIC designated for any operation will have at least a Class 2 medical certificate.
• Visual Observer and PIC will at all times be able to communicate by voice, radio, and/or text.
• Written and/or oral permission from the relevant property holders or property representatives will be obtained.
• All required permissions and permits will be obtained from territorial, state, county or city jurisdictions, including local law enforcement, fire, or other appropriate governmental agencies.

Page 4• If the sUAS loses communication with the PIC or loses its GPS signal, the sUAS will have the capability to return to a pre-determined location within the controlled property, and land autonomously.
• The sUAS will have the capability to abort a flight in case of unpredicted obstacles, weather, or emergencies.
• sUAS operations will not be conducted at night, as defined in 14 CFR § 1.1
• The sUAS will give way to any and all manned aviation operations and activities, at all times
• The sUAS will not be operated from any moving vehicle or device
• Any incidents shall be reported to the FAA’s UAS Integration office within 24 hours.
• During operations for closed-set motion picture and television filming and production, the PIC will have a motion picture and television operations manual (MPTOM), as seen in this applications docket folder.
14 C.F.R. Part 21, Subpart H: Airworthiness Certificates 14 C.F.R. §91.203 (a) (1)
Subpart H, entitled Airworthiness Certificates, establishes the procedural requirements for the issuance of airworthiness certificates as required by FAR §91.203 (a) (1). Given the size and limited operating area associated with the aircraft to be utilized by the applicant, an exemption from Part 21 Subpart H meets the requirements of an equivalent level of safety under Part 11 and Section 333 of the Reform Act. The Federal Aviation Act (49 U.S.C.§44701 (f)) and Section 333 of the Reform Act both authorize the FAA to exempt aircraft from the requirement for an airworthiness certificate, upon consideration of the size, weight, speed, operational capability, and proximity to airports and populated areas of the particular sUAS. In all cases, an analysis of these criteria demonstrates that the sUAS operated without an airworthiness certificate, in the restricted environment and under the conditions proposed will be at least as safe, or safer, than a conventional aircraft (fixed wing or rotorcraft) operating with an airworthiness certificate without the restrictions and conditions proposed.
The sUAS to be operated hereunder is 55 lbs. or less fully loaded, carries neither a pilot nor passenger, carries no explosive materials or flammable liquid fuels, and operates exclusively within a secured area. Unlike other civil aircraft, operations under this exemption will be tightly controlled and monitored by both the operator and under the requirements and in compliance with local public safety requirements, to provide security for the area of operation as is now done with conventional filming. The FAA will have advance notice of all operations. These safety enhancements, which already apply to civil aircraft operated in connection with motion picture and television production, provide a greater degree of safety to the public and property owners than conventional

Page 5operations conducted with airworthiness certificates issued under 14 C.F.R. Part 21, Subpart H. Lastly, application of these same criteria demonstrates that there is no credible threat to national security posed by the sUAS due to its size, speed of operation, location of operation, lack of explosive materials or flammable liquid fuels, and inability to carry a substantial external load.
14 C.F.R. § 45.23 (b). Marking of the Aircraft
The regulation requires:
When marks include only the Roman capital letter "N" and the registration number is displayed on limited, restricted or light-sport category aircraft or experimental or provisionally certificated aircraft, the operator must also display on that aircraft near each entrance to the cabin, cockpit, or pilot station, in letters not less than 2 inches nor more than 6 inches high, the words "limited", "restricted", "light-sport", "experimental", or "provisional", as applicable

. Even though the sUAS will have no airworthiness certificate, an exemption may be needed as the sUAS will have no entrance to the cabin, cockpit or pilot station on which the word “Experimental” can be placed. Given the size of the sUAS, two-inch lettering will be impossible. The word “Experimental” will be placed on the fuselage in compliance with §45.29 (f), and the equivalent level of safety will be provided by having the sUAS marked on its fuselage as required by §45.29 (f) where the pilot, observer, and others working with the sUAS will see the identification of the sUAS as “Experimental”. The FAA has issued the following exemptions to this regulation as Exemption Numbers 10700, 8738, 10167 and 10167A.
14 C.F.R. § 61.113 (a) & (b): Private Pilot Privileges and Limitations: Pilot in Command.
The PIC will hold a current, FAA issued, ASEL (aircraft, single engine, land) certificate.
Sections 61.113 (a) & (b) limit private pilots to non-commercial operations. Because the sUAS will not carry a pilot or passengers, the proposed operations can achieve the equivalent level of safety of current operations by requiring the PIC operating the aircraft to have no less than 40 hours of flight time with the specific sUAS equipment the applicant operates. The experience of the PIC will be certified by The applicant through background checks and, if necessary, testing.
The applicant will maintain flight logs of all qualified PICs it employees as per 14 CFR § 61.51(b ), and provide full transparency to the FAA regarding the logs and records of these PICs. The PIC designated for any operation will hold an FAA issued pilots license, and have at least a Class 2 medical certificate, or U.S issued driver’s license. The risks associated with the operation of the sUAS are so diminished from the level of risk associated with commercial operations contemplated by Part 61 when drafted, that allowing operations of the sUAS by a PIC meeting the standards of the applicant (listed above) exceeds the present level of safety achieved by 14 C.F.R. § 61.113 (a) & (b).

Page 614 C.F.R. § 91.7 (a): Civil aircraft airworthiness.
The regulation requires that no person may operate a civil aircraft unless it is in airworthy condition. As there will be no airworthiness certificate issued for the aircraft, should this exemption be granted, no FAA regulatory standard will exist for determining airworthiness. The applicant proposes that an equivalent level of safety will be provided by the use of the following safety checklists prior to each flight in order to determine if the sUAS is in condition for safe flight:
Aircraft: All adjustment points will be checked for tightness; all motors and props will be inspected; all wiring will be double-checked; all systems will be powered up and checked for errors as per the flight systems manuals.
Battery: Confirmation will be made that batteries are fully charged and installed/connected properly.
Calibration: Pre-flight motor/gyro/compass calibration followed by confirmation of no errors with the flight and navigation systems.
Transmitter: Confirm radio transmitter has sufficient charge, and is both working properly and receiving telemetry from the sUAS; confirm all switches are in pre-flight mode, and that a successful link has been established between the aircraft transmitter and onboard receiver.
Confirm sufficient satellites are present for navigation system in the event of failsafe trigger
Home point coordinates are confirmed recorded by navigation system prior to take-off
Surroundings/Flight Area: Conduct one last visual inspection of the take-off surroundings and area of airspace sUAS will be operating in. Confirm all people in the surrounding areas are associated with the operation being conducted.

Take-off Announcement: Before motors are started the PIC will announce to a designated Representative (person of authority) of the film crew that sUAS is ready to take-off. Only after the Representative has notified all persons within the surrounding areas, and confirmed to PIC that they have clearance to lift-off, will the motors be started and the sUAS will conduct its operation.
A mandatory test flight will be conducted after any disassembly/reassembly; after replacement of any motors or flight electronics; after any pre-flight or in flight equipment

Page 7errors that occur not resulting from environmental conditions. This will be done before commercial operation is commenced. All maintenance, overhaul, replacement, and inspections will be carried out as per the manufacturers specifications by a knowledgeable and capable person with the experience necessary to ensure safe operation of the sUAS, and documented in the aircraft’s records.
14 C.F.R. § 91.9 (b) (2): Civil Aircraft Flight Manual in the Aircraft.
Section 91.9 (b) (2) provides:
No person may operate a U.S.-registered civil aircraft ...
(2) For which an Airplane or Rotorcraft Flight Manual is not required by §21.5 of this chapter, unless there is available in the aircraft a current approved airplane or Rotorcraft Flight Manual, approved manual material, markings, and placards, or any combination thereof.
The sUAS, given its size and configuration has no ability or place to carry such a flight manual on the aircraft, not only because there is no pilot on board, but because there is
no room or capacity to carry such an item on the aircraft.
The equivalent level of safety will be maintained by keeping the aircraft component flight manuals at the ground control point where the PIC flying the sUAS will have immediate access to it. The FAA has issued the following exemptions to this regulation: Exemption Nos. 8607, 8737, 8738, 9299, 9299A, 9565, 9565B, 10167, 10167A, 10602, 32827, and 10700.
14 C.F.R. § 91.103: Preflight action
This regulation requires each pilot in command to take certain actions before flight to insure the safety of flight. As FAA approved rotorcraft flight manuals will not be provided for the aircraft, an exemption will be needed.
In order to ensure consistent and safe operation, the PIC will perform pre-flight inspection, maintenance, and test flights as described above with regards to 14 C.F.R. § 91.7 (a), as well as assess mission specific requirements (flight path, flight time, obstructions, landing and take-off hazards, aircraft performance, weather, etc) before commencing operation.
14 C.F.R. § 91.109: Flight instruction
Section 91.109 provides that no person may operate a civil aircraft (except a manned free balloon) that is being used for flight instruction unless that aircraft has fully functioning dual controls. sUASs and remotely piloted aircraft, by their design do not have fully functional dual controls. Flight control is accomplished through the use of a

Page 8control box that communicates with the aircraft via radio communications. The FAA has approved exemptions for flight training without fully functional dual controls for a number of aircraft and for flight instruction in experimental aircraft. See Exemption Nos. 5778K & 9862A. The equivalent level of safety is provided by the fact that neither a pilot nor passengers will be carried in the aircraft, and by the size and speed of the aircraft.
14 C.F.R. § 91.119: Minimum safe altitudes
Section 91.119 establishes safe altitudes for operation of civil aircraft. Section 91.119 (d) allows helicopters to be operated at less than the minimums prescribed, provided the person operating the helicopter complies with any route or altitudes prescribed for helicopters by the FAA. As this exemption is for a sUAS that is a helicopter and the exemption requests authority to operate at altitudes up to 400 feet AGL, or not more than 200 feet above an elevated platform from which filming is planned, an exemption may be needed to allow such operations. As set forth herein, the sUAS will never operate at higher than 400 feet AGL with the exception that in circumstances where the sUAS is used to survey or photograph a structure whose height exceeds 400 feet AGL, the UAS will not be operated more than 100 feet above the highest point on the structure. It will however be operated in a restricted area with security perimeter, where buildings and people will not be exposed to operations without their pre-obtained consent.
The equivalent level of safety will be achieved given the size, weight, and speed of the sUAS as well as the location where it is operated. No flight will be taken without the permission of the property owner or local officials. Because of the advance notice to the property owner and participants in the filming activity, all affected individuals will be aware of the planned flight operations. Compared to flight operations with aircraft or rotorcraft weighting far more than the maximum 55 lbs. proposed herein and the lack of flammable fuel, any risk associated with these operations is far less than those presently presented with conventional aircraft operating at or below 400 AGL in the movie industry. In addition, the low-altitude operations of the sUAS will ensure separation between these small UAS operations and the operations of conventional aircraft that must comply with Section 91.119.
14 C.F.R. § 91.121: Altimeter Settings
This regulation requires each person operating an aircraft to maintain cruising altitude by reference to an altimeter that is set “...to the elevation of the departure airport or an appropriate altimeter setting available before departure.” As the sUAS may not have a barometric altimeter, but instead a GPS altitude read out, an exemption may be needed. An equivalent level of safety will be achieved by the operator, pursuant to the safety check list and live flight data monitoring, confirming the altitude of the launch site shown on the GPS altitude indicator before flight.

Page 914 C.F.R. § 91.151 (a): Fuel Requirements for Flight in VFR Conditions
Section 91.151 (a) prohibits an individual from beginning “a flight in an airplane under VFR conditions unless (considering wind and forecast weather conditions) there is enough fuel to fly to the first point of intended landing, and, assuming normal cruising speed – (1) During the day, to fly after that for at least 30 minutes; or (2) At night, to fly after that for at least 45 minutes.”
The battery powering the sUAS provides no more than 20 minutes of powered flight. To meet the 30 minute reserve requirement in 14 C.F.R. § 91.151, sUAS flights would not be possible due to the reserve requirement being equal to the maximum flight time. Given the limitations on the sUAS’s proposed flight area and the location of its proposed operations within a predetermined area, a longer time frame for flight in daylight or twilight VFR conditions is reasonable.
The applicant believes that an exemption from 14 C.F.R. § 91.151 (a) falls within the scope of prior exemptions. See Exemption 10673 (allowing Lockheed Martin Corporation to operate without compliance with FAR 91.151 (a)). Operating the small UAS, in a tightly controlled area where only people and property owners or official representatives who have signed waivers will be allowed, with less than 30 minutes of reserve fuel, does not engender the type of risks that Section 91.151 (a) was intended to alleviate given the size and speed of the small UAS. Additionally, the limitations created by this requirement for sUAS flights would essentially make null any utility for which the exemption will be granted.
The applicant believes that an equivalent level of safety can be achieved by limiting flights to 20 minutes or 20% of battery power— whichever happens first. This restriction would be more than adequate to return the sUAS to its planned landing zone from anywhere in its limited operating area. Similar exemptions have been granted to other operations, including Exemptions 2689F, 5745, 10673, and 10808.
14 C.F.R. § 91.203 (a) & (b): Carrying Civil Aircraft Certification and Registration
The regulation provides in pertinent part:
(a) Except as provided in § 91.715, no person may operate a civil aircraft unless it has within it the following:
(1) An appropriate and current airworthiness certificate. . . .
(b) No person may operate a civil aircraft unless the airworthiness certificate required by paragraph (a) of this section or a special flight authorization issued under §91.715 is displayed at the cabin or cockpit entrance so that it is legible to

Page 10passengers or crew.
The sUAS fully loaded weighs no more than 55 lbs and is operated without an onboard pilot. As such, there is no ability or place to carry certification and registration documents or to display them on the sUAS.
An equivalent level of safety will be achieved by keeping these documents at the ground control point where the pilot flying the sUAS will have immediate access to them, to the extent they are applicable to the sUAS. The FAA has issued numerous exemptions to this regulation. A representative sample of other exceptions includes Exemption Nos. 9565, 9665, 9789, 9789A, 9797, 9797A, 9816A, and 10700.
14 C.F.R. § 91.405 (a); 407 (a)(1); 409 (a)(2); 417 (a) & (b): Maintenance Inspections

T hese regulations require that an aircraft operator or owner “shall have that aircraft inspected as prescribed in subpart E of this part and shall between required inspections, except as provided in paragraph (c) of this section, have discrepancies repaired as prescribed in part 43 of this chapter...,” and others shall inspect or maintain the aircraft in compliance with Part 43.
Given that these sections and Part 43 apply only to aircraft with an airworthiness certificate, these sections will not apply to the applicant. Maintenance and inspections will be done in accordance with the sUAS Manufacturer's Manual, and will be performed by employees of the applicant following the guidelines and practices provided to us bythe sUAS Manufacturer. An equivalent level of safety will be achieved because these small UASs are very limited in size and will carry a small payload and operate only in restricted areas for limited periods of time. If mechanical issues arise the sUAS can land immediately and will be operating from no higher than 400 feet AGL. The PIC will ensure that the sUAS is in working order prior to initiating flight, perform required maintenance, and keep a log of any maintenance performed. Moreover, the PIC is the person most familiar with the aircraft and best suited to maintain the aircraft in an airworthy condition to provide the equivalent level of safety.

Additional Views
Regarding Privacy:
All flights will occur over private or controlled access property with the property representative or owner’s prior consent and knowledge. Filming will be of people who have also consented to being filmed or otherwise have agreed to be in the area where filming will take place. All flights will occur in accordance with any state or local laws regarding privacy.
Additionally, our company seeks to conform to privacy regulations what we believe are necessary, and imminent, if the UAS industry is to be accepted by the general public, and therefore the motion picture and TV industries.

Page 16Pre-Flight Procedure
• Check the reliability of the Multi-Rotor. • The flight battery and transmitter battery must be fully charged. • Always turn on the transmitter first and then the Multi-Rotor. • Watch for visible damage such as loose screws, broken, unbalanced or damaged propellers,

faulty connectors or solder joints, broken pipes, etc. • The propeller must be in a good condition and securely mounted. The rotors must spin

smoothly. Please ensure that there are no objects are in the rotational plane of the propellers or within a distance that poses a risk of obstruction. Rotating propeller ends are dangerous to touch - never touch a rotating propeller with fingers or other body parts. • Ensure the appropriate to the audible beeps when auto lipo-detection is enabled. 6 * beep

means 6s Lipo • Ensure that the selected channel on the remote control is free and that you're within range of

the transmitter. • Ensure the sensors are calibrated (when the motors are off move yaw and gas stick into upper

left corner until it beeps). • Different settings can result in fundamentally different flight characteristics and occupation of

the Channel functions. Make sure that you are familiar with the setting and its features. • After starting the motors, check that all motors are running and rotate evenly. Please fly

carefully at a low altitude until you know that everything is working fine. • Perform a pre-flight check (see checklist below).

• Start manually - switch off altitude control and GPS.

Pre-Flight Checklist

• Weather conditions are suitable. • Frame and all screws are tight. • Propeller not damaged and tightly fixed. • Battery fully charged and securely mounted. • Transmitter battery charged and the antennas are free. • Channel of the transmitter is not busy. If 35/40/70MHz or other MHz-RC-controls are in

operation simultaneously, the used channels must be checked with the other pilots (not necessary for 2.4 GHz systems). • Check RC(TX/RX) operation range (on the ground!) from time to time (and before 1st flight). • Ensure there is nothing in the danger zone of the propeller. • Ensure enough space for launch and flight. • Ensure the GPS module (if any) has GPS fix. If CH or PH is active it will beep every second.

Check that when you switch to GPS mode, there will be an audible beep. • For manual start ensure GPS and altitude controls are turned off. • Ensure sensors are calibrated and that the right setting is loaded.

• Ensure the trim of the remote control is in neutral position.

Page 17In-Flight Procedure
• Do not take risks! Your own safety and that of your environment depend on the good behavior

of the pilot. Always maintain a safe distance from people, animals and objects. Improper operation can cause serious injury and property damage! Never fly towards viewers and avoid flying over spectators. • Keep in mind that viewers could get close to the Multi-Rotor, without being aware of potential

dangers. • Always turn off the Multi-Rotor first and disconnect the flight battery before turning off the

transmitter. • Only fly in line of sight. In the case of manual control, you must be able to see the position and altitude. Never fly over 4 00 feet. • Never rely 100% on functions such as GPS, compass, or altitude control. You must always be

able to take manual control of the Multi-Rotor. • Reduce the throttle or switch off the motors in case of a crash or failure. • Do not fly in restricted air space, such as in the vicinity of airports, etc. • Pay attention to under-voltage warning -flying on an empty battery can cause damage to the

Lipos and crash.

• If a defect or malfunction has occurred, it must be corrected before the next start.

• When using GPS, take note that the position of the Multi-Rotor can change suddenly.

• Post-Flight Procedure
• Disconnect the battery and check all over for damage. Make sure that there is no damage to

the propellers. • See the Handling and safety precautions of Lipo batteries

. • I f the Multi-Rotor is involved in a crash or hard landing the sensors and electronics might be damaged. Before the next start everything must be checked.
