Individual Parts Remote Controller 1. Linking is required if you wish to replace your remote controller or receiver, or add a new remote controller. Refer to the user manual for more information about how to link the aircraft. 2. If the remote controller is powered on and has not been used for 5 minutes, it will sound an alert. After 10
minutes it w ill automatically power off. Move the sticks or perform some other action to cancel the alert. 3. A Slave remote controller cannot be linked with the aircraft and cannot control the aircraft’s flight. You maychange it to a Master remote controller via th e DJI Pilot app, and then link it to the aircraft to control flight. 4. Ensure the Mobile Device Holder is firmly in place and does not slip. 5. For the GPS in the remote controller to function properly, and the Dynamic Home Point to be accurate,
ensure t he DJI logo is facing the sky and keep the remote controller away from any metal objects. 6. Repair or replace the remote controller if damaged. A damaged remote controller antenna will greatly decrease performance. 7. When on the go, you may charge the remote controller from the aircraft’s Intelligent Flight Battery.
Camera 1. Photos or videos cannot be transmitted or copied from the camera if the Intelligent Flight Battery is powered off. 2. Be sure to power off the Intelligent Flight Battery correctly, otherwise your camera parameters will not be saved and any recorded videos may be damaged. 3. Test the camera by shooting a few test images to check that it is operating correctly before shooting important pictures. 4. Respect the privacy of others whe n using the camera. Make sure you comply with local privacy laws, regulations and moral standards. 5. Check camera settings before use to make sure you can adjust them to fit your needs. Gimbal 1. The gimbal and gimbal connector are very delicate. Handle with care and do not touch the gimbal connector, as any damage will cause it to function abnormally. 2. A gimbal motor error may occur if: (1) The aircraft is placed on uneven ground or other objects obstruct the gimbal’s full range of motion, or (2) The gimbal has undergone an excessive impact, e.g. a collision. Please only takeoff from flat, open areas and protect the gimbalafter powering up. 3. Hold the gimbal firmly when detaching or reattaching it, so it does not drop. 4. Do not add any payloads to the gimbal, as this may cause the gimbal to function abnormally, or even2 ©2014 DJI. All Rights Reserved.
EN lead to motor damage. 5. Precision elements in the gimbal may be damaged by a collision or impact, which will cause the gimbal to function abn ormally. Compass 1. Ensure the compass is calibrated before every flight. Failure to calibrate may lead to a poor flight performance or even failure. 2. DO NOT calibrate your compass where there is a chance of strong magnetic interference. This includes a reas where there are massive metal objects, parking structures, steel reinforcements underground, or under bridges. 3. DO NOT carry ferromagnetic materials with you during calibration, such as keys or mobile phones. 4. The compass should always be recalibrated when moving from indoor spaces to outdoor spaces. 5. If the rear LED shows a solid red light, compass calibration has failed. Please recalibrate. 6. After successful calibration, the compass may become abnormal when you put the aircraft on the ground. This is because of magnetic interference that may be underground. Move the aircraft to another location and try again. Parameter Settings The Inspire 1 features a built

- in flight control system to make operation as safe as possible. However, it is good practice to remove all propellers before switching it on for calibration or changing other parameter settings. Battery Refer to the Intelligent Flight Battery Safety Guidelines and battery sticker for usage and maintenance information. Storage a nd Transportation 1. Store the Intelligent Flight Battery and remote controller in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, to ensure the built

- in LiPo battery does not overheat. Recommended storage temperature: between22°C and 28°C for storage peri ods of more than three months. Never store in environments outside the temperature range of

- 20°C to 45°C. 2. Do not allow the camera to come into contact with, or become immersed in, water or other liquids. If it gets wet, wipe dry with a soft, absorben t cloth. Turning on an aircraft that has fallen into water may
cause permanent component damage. Do not use substance containing alcohol, benzene, thinners or other flammable substances to clean or maintain the camera. Do not store the camera in humid or dusty
areas. 3. Always keep all parts out of the reach of children, as the cables, straps or small parts may be dangerous if swallowed. If swallowed, go to the hospital immediately. 4. Detach the gimbal from the Inspire 1 when storing for a long period o f time or transporting over long distances. Also replace the Gimbal Cover when storing. Maintenance and Upkeep 1. Check every part of the aircraft if it is violently impacted. If you have any problems or questions, please contact a DJI authorized dealer. 2. Old, chipped, or broken propellers or motors should never be used. 3. Regularly check the Battery Level Indicators to see the current battery level and overall battery life. When the battery life reaches 0%, it can no longer be used. 4. After every 50 hours of flight time, DJI recommends you perform a thorough inspection of your Inspire 1 and all of its parts and components to ensure the safe operation of your aircraft. © 2014 DJI.
