# it, The performance

of your Inspire 1's Vision Positioning System

is subject

to the surface you are flying over The ultrasonic waves may not be able to accurately measure the distance over sound absorbing materials. and the camera may not function correctly

in suboptimal environments
The aircraft will switch from "P' mode to "A' mode automatically

if both GPS and Vision Positioning System are not available

. 

# So operate the aircraft cautiously when
1n a ny of the following situations

: • Flying over monochrome surfaces

(e g pure black, pure white, pure red. pure green) • Flying over

. • Flying over surfaces that can absorb sound waves
(e

or texture • Flying over surfaces with identical repeating patterns

or textures

(e g . tiles with same design) • Flying over inclined surfaces that will deflect sound waves away from the aircraft • In the event of loss of remote controller's signal. the aircraft will hover for 8 seconds and then auto-land
if it is in "P' mode

. :))

• Keep the sensors clean
at all times

. Dirt or other debris may adversely affect the effectiveness of the sensors • The effective hovering altitudes

of the aircraft

is from
0 to 2 5 meter

s • Vision Positioning system may not function properly when the aircraft

is flying over water • Vision Positioning system may not be able to recognize pattern on the ground

in low light conditions (less than

1 OOiux)

. • Do not use other ultrasonic devices with frequency

of 40 KHz when Vision Positioning system

is in operation • Vision Positioning system may not be able to stabilize the aircraft when flying close to the ground (below

it is recommended

to charge and discharge the battery thoroughly
for every 10 charge-and-discharge
cycle User should install the battery onto the aircraft and then power on the aircraft
to initiate the discharge process. discharge
the battery until the aircraft

is powered

. User should then tully charge the battery

to ensure the battery

is working

at its optimal. Slow: Place the Intelligent Flight Battery into the Inspire 1's Battery Compartment
and power

it on

. Leave

it on until there
is less than 5% of power left, or until the battery can no longer be turned on

. Launch the OJI Pilot app to check battery level. Rapid: Fly the Inspire

# Flight Once pre-flight preparation

is complete,

it is recommended

to use the flight simulator

to learn how to fly safely Ensure that all flights are carried out in a suitable location

. Do not use the aircraft

in severe weather conditions These include wind speed exceeding 10m/s

, snow, rain and smog 2 Only fly in open areas

. Tall buildings and steel structures may affect the accuracy

of the on-board compass and GPS signal, 3 . Avoid from obstacles, crowds, high voltage power lines, trees or bodies
of water 4 Minimize electromagnetic interference

by not flying
in area with high levels
of electromagnetism, including mobile phone base stations

or radio transmission towers

. 5 Aircraft and battery performance

is subject

to environment factor such as air density and temperature Be very careful when flying 14700 teet (4500 meters)
or more above sea level as battery and aircraft performance may be reduced

, 6 The Inspire

1 cannot operate within the polar areas
in ·p• mode Flight limits on height and distance can be set The details
of these flight limits are described

in the following section All unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) operators should abide by all regulations from such organizations

as the ICAO (International Civil Aviation Organization), FAA and their own national airspace regulations
For safety reasons, the flight limits function

is enabled by default
to help users use this product safely and legally

. The flight limits function includes height limits, distance limits and No Fly Zones When operating

in P Mode, height, distance limits and No Fly Zones work together

to manage flight
In A mode only height limits work and flights cannot go higher than 120 meters

.

: Make sure to calibrate the compass

in every new flight location The compass

is very sensitive

to electromagnetic interference, which can cause abnormal compa

or even failure Regular calibration

is required
for optimum performance

• DO NOT calibrate your compass where there
is a chance
of strong magnetic interference, such as magnetite. parking structures. and steel reinforcements underground • DO NOT carry ferromagnetic materials with you during calibration such as keys or cellular phones • DO NOT calibrate beside massive metal objects

. 

# Calibration Procedures Choose an open space
to carry out the following procedures 1 . Ensure that the compass

is calibrated

If you did not calibrate the compass

as part of your pre-flight preparations,

or if you have moved

to a new location since the last calibration.
tap Aircraft Status Indicator bar in the app and select "Calibrate•

. then follow the on-screen instructions 2 . Hold and rotate the aircraft horizontally 360 degrees, and the Aircraft Status Indicator will display
