# 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 lo cation. 

## Flight Environment Requirements 1. 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, tre es 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 feet (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 and Flight Restriction Area 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, dist ance 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 1 20 meters. 

### Max Height & Radius Limits Max Height & Radius limit flying height and distance, and the user may change these settings in the DJI Pilot App. Once complete, your Inspire 1 will fly in a restricted cylinder that is determined by these settings. The tables below show the details of these limits.

Max Height Max Radius

Home Point Height of aircraft when powered on

### 46 © 2015 DJI. All Rights Reserved. GPS Signal Weak Blinking Yellow Flight Limits DJI Pilot App Aircraft Status Indicator Max Height Flight height restricted to 120m and under. Warning: Height limit reached. None. Max Radius No limits If you fly out of the limit, you can still control the Inspire 1, but cannot fly it further. If the Inspire 1 flies out of the max radius in Ready to Fly (non-GPS) mode, it will fly back within range automatically. 

### No-Fly Zones All No-Fly Zones are listed on the DJI official website at http://flysafe.dji.com/no-fly. No-Fly Zones are divided into Airports and Restricted Areas. Airports include major airports and flying fields where manned aircraft operate at low altitudes. Restricted Areas include borders between countries or sensitive sites. The details of the No-Fly Zones are explained below: Airport: (1) Airport No-Fly Zones are comprised of Takeoff Restricted Zones and Restricted-Altitude Zones. Each zone features circles of various size. (2) R1 depends on the size and shape of the airport, and is an area around the airport that is a Takeoff Restricted Zone, inside of which take-off and flight is prevente d. (3) From R1 to R1+1 mile around the airport, the flight altitude is limited on a 15 degree incline, starting at 65 feet (20 meters) from the edge of airport and radiating outward. The flight altitude is limited to 1640 feet (500 meters) at R1+1 mile. (4) When the aircraft is within 320 feet (100 meters) of the No-Fly Zones, a warning message will appear in the DJI Pilot app. GPS Signal Strong Blinking Green Flight Limits DJI Pilot App Aircraft Status Indicator Max Height Flight altitude must be under the set height. Warning: Height limit reached. None.

Max Radius Flight distance must be within the max radius. Warning: Distance limit reached. Rapid red flashing when close to the max radius limit.© 2015 DJI. All Rights Reserved. 

### 47 Restricted Areas: (1) Restricted Areas do not have a flight altitude restriction. (2) R around the designated Restricted Area is a Take-off Restricted area. Aircraft cannot takeoff within this zone. The value of R varies depending on the definition of the Restricted Area. (3) A “warning zone” has been set around each Restricted Area. When the aircraft is within 0.6 miles (1 km) of this zone, a warning message will appear in the DJI Pilo t app.

## Preflight Checklist 1. Remote controller, aircraft battery, and mobile device are full y charged. 2. Propellers are mounted correctly and firmly. 3. Micro-SD card has been inserted if necessary. 4. Gimbal is functioning as normal. 5. Motors can start and are functioning as normal. 6. DJI Pilot app connected to the aircraft. 

## Calibrating the Compass IMPORTANT: Make sure to calibrate the compass in every new flight location. The compass is very sensitive to electromagnetic interference, which can cause abnormal compass data leading to poor flight performance or even failure. Regular calibration is required fo r optimum performance. DO NOT calibrate your compass where there is a chance of strong magnetic interference, such

as magnetite, parking structures, and steel reinforcements unde rground. 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 th e on-screen instructions. 2. Hold and rotate the aircraft horizontally 360 degrees, and the Aircraft Status Indicator will display a

solid green light.

### 50 © 2015 DJI. All Rights Reserved. 3. Hold the aircraft vertically with nose pointing downward, and rotate it 360 degrees around the center

axis. Recalibrate the compass if the Aircraft Status Indicator show solid red.

If the Aircraft Status Indicator blinks red and yellow after the calibration, move your aircraft to a different location to carry out compass calibration. Calibrate the compass before each flight. Launch DJI Pilot App, follow the on-screen instruction to calibrate the compass.


### When to Recalibrate 1. When compass data is abnormal, and the Aircraft Status Indicato r is blinking red and yellow. 2. When flying in a new location, or a location that is different f rom your last flight. 3. When the mechanical structure of the Inspire 1 has changed, i.e. changed mounting position of the

compass. 4. When severe drifting occurs in flight, i.e. the Inspire 1 does n ot fly in straight lines. 

## Auto Take-off and Auto Landing Auto Take-off Use auto take-off to take off your aircraft automatically if the Aircraft Status Indicator displays blinking green. Follow the steps below to use auto take-off: 1. Launch DJI Pilot app, enter “Camera” page. 2. Ensure the aircraft is in “P” mode. 3. Go through the pre-flight checklist. 4. Tap“ ”, and confirm flight condition. Slide to confirm and take-off. 5. Aircraft takes off and hovers at 1.2 meters above ground.
