# Aircraft

The Inspire 

### 1 Pro's flight controller is based on DJI flight controller with several enhancements such as new flight mode and new safe mode. Three safe modes are available: Failsafe, Return Home and Dynamic Home Point. These features ensure the safe return of your aircraft if the control signal is lost. A flight recorder stores crucial flight datafor each flight.

Three flight modes are available. The details of each flight mode are found in the section below: Pmode (Positioning) : Pmode works best when GPS signal is strong. There are three different states of Pmode, which will be automatically selected bythe Inspire 1 Pro depending on GPS signal strength and Vision Positioning sensors: P-GPS: GPS and Vision Positioning both are available, and the aircraft is using GPS for positioning. P-OPTI: Vision Positioning is available but the GPS signal is not. Aircraft is using only Vision Positioning for hovering P-A TTl: Neither GPS or Vision Positioning available, aircraft is using only its barometer 1br positioning, so only altitude is controlled. A mode (Attitude): The GPS and Vision Positioning System is not used for holding position. The aircraft only uses its barometerto maintain altitude. If it is still receiving aGPS signal, the aircraft can automatically return home ifthe Remote Controllersignal is lost and ifthe Home Point has been recorded successfully. F mode (Function): Intelligent Orientation Control (IOC) is activated in this mode. For more information about IOC, referto the IOC in Appendix.

:\): Use the Flight Controller mode switch to change the flight mode ofthe aircraft, referto the**~~Flight** Mode Switch" on P29 for more information.

The Inspire 

### 1Pro comes with the Front LED, Rear LED and Aircraft Status Indicator. The positions ofthese LEOs are shown in the figure below:

The Return to Home (RTH) brings the aircraft backto the last recorded Home Point. There are three cases that will trigger RTH procedure; they are Smart RTH, Low Battery RTH and Failsafe RTH.

Home Point

Smart RTH The Home Point is the location atwhich your aircrafttakes offwhen the GPS signal is strong. You can view the GPS signal strength through the GPS icon (**u!i** 

### ). If you are using the Dynamic Home Point setting, the Home Pointwill be updated to your current position as you move around and when the Aircraft Status Indicator blinks green.
Using the RTH button on the remote controller (refer to "RTH button" on P30 for more information) or the RTH button in the DJI GO app when GPS is available to enables smart RTH. The aircraft return to the latest recorded Home Point, you may control the aircraft•s orientation to avoid collision during the Smart RTH. Press the Smart RTH button once to start the process, press the Smart RTH button again to exit Smart RTH and regain the control.

DJI Vision Positioning is a positioning system that uses ultrasonic and image data to help the aircraft identify its current position. With the help of Vision Positioning, your Inspire 1 Pro can hover in place more precisely and fly indoors or in other environments where there is no GPS signal available. The main components of DJI Vision Positioning are located on the bottom of your Inspire 1 Pro, including [1]two sonarsensors and[2]one monocularcamera.

Using Vision Positioning Vision Positioning is acUvated automatically when the Inspire 1 Pro is powered on. No manual action is required. Vision Positioning is typically used in the indoor environment where no GPS is available. By using the sensors on the Vision Positioning system, Inspire 1 Pro can perform precision hovering even when no GPS is available.



### 18 ©2015 DJI. All R1ght$ Reserved.INSPIRE 1PRO User Manual Followthe steps belowto use Vision Positioning: 1. Toggle the switch

### to "P" as shown the figure to the right: 2. Place the Inspire 1 Pro on a flat surface. Notice that the Vision Positioning system cannotwork properly on surfaces without pattern variations. 3. Power on the Inspire 1 Pro. The aircraft status indicator will flash twice in green light, which indicates the Vision Positioning system is ready. Gently push the throttle up to liftoff, and the Inspire 1Prowill hover in place. 

### ,1. The performance ofyour Inspire 1Pro's Vision**Pos~ioning** System is subjectto the surfaceyou are flying over. The ultrasonic waves may not be able to accurately measure the distance over sound absorbing materials, and the camera may notfunction correctly in suboptimal environments. The aircraft will switch from "P" mode to "Pi' mode automatically if both GPS and Vision Positioning System are not available. So operate the aircraft cautiouslywhen in any ofthe following situations: • Flying over monochrome surfaces (e.g. pure black, pure white, pure red, pure green). • Flying over ahighly reflective surfaces. • Flying athigh speeds (over 8m/s at 2meters or over4m/s at 1meter). • Flying overwater ortransparent surfaces. • Flying over moving surfaces orobjects. • Flying in an areawhere the lighting changes frequentlyor drastically. • Flying over extremely dark (lux< 10) or bright (lux> 10,000) surfaces. • Flying oversurfaces that can absorb sound waves (e.g. thick carpet). • Flying oversurfaces without clear patterns ortexture. • Flying oversurfaces with identical repeating patterns ortextures (e.g. tiles with same design). • Rying over inclined surfaces thatwill deflect sound waves awayfrom the aircraft. • In the event of loss of remote controller's signal, the aircraft will hover for 8seconds and then

auto-land if it is in "P" mode. 

# ilJ •Keep the sensors clean at all times. Dirt or other debris may adversely affect the effectiveness ofthe sensors. • The effective hovering altitudes ofthe aircraft is from 0to 2.5 meters. • Vision Positioning system may notfunction properlywhen the aircraft is flying overwater. • Vision Positioning system may not be able to recognize pattern on the ground in low light

conditions (less than 1001ux). • 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 (below0.5 meters) in fast speed. 

# 0 Keep the animals away from the aircraft when Vision Positioning system is activated. The sonar sensor emits high frequency sound that is only audible to some animals.

# Flight
This chapter describes the flight safety and flight restrictions.

@ 2015 OJI. All R1ghts Rese1ved 49

# 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 asuitable location.



### 1. Do not use the aircraft in severe weather conditions. These include wind speed exceeding 1 Om/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**vo~age** power lines, trees or bodies ofwater. 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 subjectto 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 1Pro cannotoperate within the polarareas in "P" mode.

Flight**lim~s** on height and distance can be set. The details 

### ofthese 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. Theflight limitsfunction includes height limits, distance limits and No FlyZones. When operating in PMode, height, distance limits and No FlyZones work togetherto manage flight. In A mode only height limits work and flights cannot go higherthan 120 meters. Max Height & Radius Limits Max Height & Radius limit flying height and distance. and the user may change these settings in the DJI GO App. Once complete, your Inspire 1 Pro will fly in a restricted cylinder that is determined by these settings. The tables below showthe details ofthese limits.

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 ofthe No-FlyZones are explained below: Airport: (1) Airport No-FlyZones are comprised ofTakeoff Restricted Zones and Restricted-Altitude Zones. Each zone features circles ofvarious size. (2) R1 depends on the size and shape of the airport, and is an area around the airport that is aTakeoff Restricted Zone, inside ofwhich take-off and flight is prevented. (3) From R1 to R1+ 1mile 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

### +1mile. (4) When the aircraft is within 320 feet (100 meters) ofthe No-Fly Zones, awarning message will appear in the DJI GO app.
