Pla ce the Inspire 1 on a flat surface . Notice that the Vision Positioning sys tem cannot work properly on surfaces without pattern variations . 3 . Power on the Inspire 1 . The a i rcraft st atus indicator will flash twice in green li ght ,

which ind icates the Vision Position i ng system is re ady . Gently push the thrott le up to lift off, and the Inspi r e 1 will hover in place. 

# & The performance of your I nspire 1 's Vision Pos it ioning Sys t em i s subject to the surface you are f lying over. The u ltrasonic waves m ay not be ab le to accurately measure the distance over sound absorbing materials , and the camera may not function correctly i n s uboptima l envi ronments . The aircraft will switch from · p · mode to "A" mode automaticall y if both GPS and V is ion Position i ng System are not ava il able. 

### So operate the a ircraft cautiously when in any of the following situations : • F lying over monochrome surfaces (e.g. pure blnck. pure white . pure red , pure green) . • Fl ying over a h i gh ly re flective 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 li ghting 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 i dentica l repeating patterns or t extures (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 signa l, 

### the aircraft will hover for 8 seconds and then

auto-l::md if it is i n • p • mode. 

## 'I) • Keep the sensors clean at all times.
