Product Usage Cautions 

When flying, the fast rotating propellers of SBOO may cause serious damage(s) and injuries. 

Therefore, please fly with a high safety in mind at all time. 

• Mount GPS with a bracket, to avoid interference from the power board of center frame. 

• For IMU position, make sure the arrow direction marking is pointing to the aircraft nose. 

• The receiver is recommended strongly to be installed under the bottom board of canter 

frame, and the head of antenna is downward without any obstacle. The aircraft will be out of 

control, since the wireless signal may be lost by the obstacle. 

• Mount the arms correctly. 

Center fram ++ Arm8 

Canter frame® ++ Arm® 

• For removing screws In the bottom board, please proceed with cautious, avoiding 

damages. Do not remove any other screws fixed with glue. 

• Notice matching the indications is very important, please pay attention to them. 

Flight Attention 

• With DJI WKM autopilot system, make sure the output signal ofWKM F1-F2 and M1-M6 are 

all normal, to avoid serious damage(s) and injuries. 

• Keep flying multi-rotor a distance from people, building, high-voltage lines, etc. 

• Make sura to usa 6S LiPo power battery. 

• Do not get close to or touch the working motors and propellers, which will cause serious 

injury. 

• Do not over load the multi-rotor. 

• Make sura the propellers and the motors are installed correctly and firmly before flying. 

• Make sure all parts of SBOO are in good condition before each flight. Do not fly with wore or 

broken parts. 

• Strongly recommend you use DJI parts as much as possible.
