Flight Controller 

The Inspire 1 '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 fe<:~tures ensure the s<:~fe return of your <:~ rcraft if the control ig n<:~l is lost. A flight 

recorder stores crucial flight data for e<:~ch flight. 

Flight Mode 

Three flight modes are available. The de <:~il s of each flight mode are found in the section below: 

P mode (Positioning) : P mode works best when GPS signal is strong. There are three different states of P 

mode, which will be automatically selected by the Inspire 1 depending on GPS signal strength and Vision 

Positioning sensors: 

P-GPS: GPS and Vision Positioning both are available, and the aircraft is using GI?S for positioning 

P-OPTI: Vision Positioning is available but the GPS sig nal is not. Aircraft is using only Vision 

Positioning for hovering 

P-ATTI: Neither GPS or Vision Positioning available, aircraft is using only its barometer for positioning, 

so only altitude is controlled . 

A mode (Attitude): The GPS <:~nd Vision Positioning System is not used for holding position. The <:~ rcraft 

only uses its barometer to maintain altitude. If it is still receiving a GPS signal, the aircraft can automatically 

return home if the Remote Controller signal is lost and if the Home Point has been recorded successfully. 

F mode (Function): Intelligent Orientation Control (IOC) is activated in this mode. For more information 

about IOC, refer to the IOC in Appendix. 

:\): Use the Flight Controller mode switch to ch<:~nge the flight mode of the <lircraft, refer to the "Flight 

Mode Switch" on P27 for more nfo m<:~t on. 

Flight Status Indicator 

The INSPIRE 1 comes with the Front LED, Re<:~r LED and Aircraft Status Indicator. The positions of these 

LEOs are shown in the figure below:

Low Battery RTH 

The low battery level failsafe is triggered when the DJI Intelligent Flight Battery is depleted to a point that 

may affect the safe return of the aircraft. Users ore advised to return home or land the aircraft immediately 

when these warnings are shown. DJI Pilot app will advise user to return the aircraft to the Home Point 

when low battery warning is triggered. Aircraft will automatically return to the Home Point if no action is 

taken after 10 seconds countdown. User can cancel the RTH by pressing once on the RTH button. The 

thresholds for these warnings are automatically determined based on the current aircraft altitude and its 

distance from the Home Point. 

Aircraft wi ll land automatically if the current battery level can only support the aircraft to land to the ground 

from the current altitude. User can use the remote controller to control the aircraft's orientation during the 

landing process.

motion and require a Home Point that is different from the 

takeoff point. GPS module is located at the position shown in 

the figure below: 

& Ensure the space above the GPS module is not 

obstructed when using Dynamic Home Point 

201SOJ! ~Roljhls- 15 
INSPIRE 1 User Manual 

There are two options for Dynamic Home Point. 

1. Set the aircraft current coordinate as the new Home Point. 

2. Set the remote controller's coordinate as the new Home Point. 

Setting Up Dynamic Home Point

2. Tap'" "and select" ". to reset the remote controller's coordinates as the new Home Point. 

3. Tap'" "and select"4.9", to reset the aircraft's coordinates as the new Home Point. 

4. The aircraft status indicator blinks green to show Home Point is set successfully. 

Vision Positioning System 

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 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, including [1]two sonar 

sensors and[2]one monocular camera. 

Using Vision Positioning 

Vision Positioning is activated automatically when the Inspire 1 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 can perfonm precision hovering even when 

no GPS is available.

INSPIRE 1 User Manual 

Follow the steps below to use Vision Positioning: 

1. Toggle the switch to · p· as shown the figure to the right: 

2. Place the Inspire 1 on a flat surface. Notice that the Vision Positioning system 

cannot work properly on surfaces without pattern variations. 

3. Power on the Inspire 1. The aircraft status indicator will flash twice in green light, 

which indicates the Vision Positioning system is ready. Gently push the throttle up 

to lift off, and the Inspire 1 will hover in place. 

& 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 in any of the following situations: 

• Flying over monochrome surfaces (e.g. pure blnck. pure white. pure red, pure green). 

• Flying over a highly reflective surfaces. 

• Flying nt high speeds{ over 8m/s at 2 meters or over 4m/s at 1 meter). 

• Flying over water or transparent surfaces. 

• Flying over moving surfaces or objects. 

• Flying in on area where the lighting changes frequently or drastically . 

• Flying over extremely dark (lux < 10) or bright (lux> 10.000) surfaces. 

• Aying over surfaces that can absorb sound waves (e.g . thiCk carpet). 

• Aying over surfaces without clear patterns or texture. 

• Aying over surfaces with identical repeating patterns or textures (e.g. tiles with same design). 

• Aying 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-l::md if it is in •p• mode. 

'I) • 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 meters. 

• 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 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 c lose to the 

ground (below 0.5 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 Recorder 

Right data is automatically stored in the internal storage device of the aircraft. User can gain access to 

these data through the DJI Pilot app. This includes flight durotiOI'l, or1entatiOI'l, distance, aircraft status 

information. speed, and other parameters.

P mode (Positioning) : P mode works best when GPS signal is strong. There are three different states of P 

mode, which will be automatically selected by the Inspire 1 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-ATTI: Neither GPS or Vision Positioning available, aircraft is using only its barometer for 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 barometer to maintain altitude. If it is still receiving a GPS signal, the aircraft can automatically 

return honne if the Remote Controller signal is lost and if the Home Point has been recorded successfully. 

F mode (Function): Intelligent Orientation Control (IOC) is activated in this mode. For more information 

about IOC, refer to the IOC in Appendix
