DC 20590 Re: Request for Exemption Pursuant

to Section 333 ofthe FAA Modernization

and Reform Act Dear Sir or Madam: Pursuant

to Section 333 of the FAA Modernization

and Reform Act of2012 ("FAA Reform Act") and 14 C.F.R., Part 11, the Dallas Cowboys Football Club, Ltd. (the "Applicant") respectfully requests
an exemption

to several provisions ofC.F.R. Title 14, listed below,
to permit the use of small unmanned aerial systems (sUAS)
to conduct aerial data collection, videography
and imaging of its training facilities located
in Irving, Texas, and Oxnard, California. The Applicant seeks to operate sUAS solely on, above, and within its privately owned training facilities

in a controlled environment,

at all times closed
to unauthorized personnel. As described

in greater detail below, the requested exemption would permit the operation
of a small, unmanned and relatively inexpensive sUAS under controlled conditions

in airspace that is 1) limited,
2) predetermined,

3) controlled

as to access, and 4) would,

at minimum, adhere
to the same standards
of safety that are customary within the television and film industry
in closed set aerial filming.

1 The Applicant's sUAS
is rotocraft, weighing less than 10 lbs. including payload. It operates, under normal conditions

at a speed of no more than 40 knots and have the capability to hover, and move in the vertical and horizontal plane simultaneously.

It will operate only in line of sight and will operate only on a closed location. Such operations will ensure that the sUAS will "not create

a hazard
to users of the national airspace system or public." Given the small size of the sUAS involved and the restricted environment within which they will operate, the Applicant falls squarely within that zone of safety (an equivalent level of safety)
in which Congress envisioned that the FAA must, by exemption, allow commercial operations

of UASs
to commence immediately. Also, due to the size of the UASs and the restricted areas in which the relevant sUAS will operate, approval
of the application presents
no national security issue

. Thus, granting
an exemption

is consistent with Congress's intent, reflected

in Section 333 1 Although Applicant plans to use the content

it gathers from the sUAS operations
for private and educational purposes, and not for commercial gain or public dissemination,

the nature of its operations
are substantially similar
to those used in closed set television and motion picture filming. As such, Applicant commits

to conducting

its operations

as though

it was aerially filming on a closed set. **OALL~S** COWB

14 C.F.R. Part 36--Noise Standards Subpart
H, entitled Airworthiness Certificates, establishes
the procedural requirements

for the issue of airworthiness certificates.

14 C.P.R.

§ 21.171.
In accordance with the size, weight, speed, and limited operating area associated with the sUAS and its operation,

an exemption

of Part 21, Subpart
H, meets the requirements

of an equivalent level of safety under Part 11 and Section 333 of the FAA Reform Act. The Federal Aviation Act and Section 333 ofthe FAA Reform Act both authorize the FAA to exempt aircraft from the requirement

for an airworthiness certificate, upon consideration

of the size, weight, speed, operational capacity, and proximity

to airports, power plants, fuel depots and populated areas of the particular sUAS. See 49 U.S.C.

§ 44701(f); § 44704(d)

. As demonstrated through this application,
the sUAS will be operated

in a restricted environment
and under conditions that are at least as safe, or safer, than

a conventional aircraft operating with an airworthiness certificate. Furthermore,

the sUAS
is less than 55lbs. fully loaded, carries neither

a pilot nor passenger, carries no explosive materials

or flammable liquid fuels, and operates exclusively within

a secured and designated area. Accordingly,

an exemption from this Subpart

is warranted, along with any associated noise certification
and testing requirements

of 14 C.P.R. Part 36. 14 C.F.R.

§ 45.23(b}--Display

of Marks 14 C.P.R.§ 45.23(b) requires: When marks include only the Roman capital letter ''N" and the registration number is displayed
on limited, restricted

or light-sport category aircraft or experimental

or provisionally certificated aircraft, the operator must also display on that aircraft near each entrance

to the cabin, cockpit,
or pilot station,
in letters not less than

2 inches nor more than

6 inches high, the words "limited," "restricted," "light-sport," "experimental,"

or ''provisional,"

as applicable. Relief

is requested from this regulation because, due to the diminutive size of the sUAS
to be operated, two inch lettering

is impossible. Further, the sUAS will have no entrance

to a cabin, cockpit,
or pilot station on 'Yhich the word "experimental"

can be placed. Dallas Cowboys Football Club, Ltd Request for Section 333 Exemption

§ 61.113(a),(b}:-Private

Pilot Privileges and Limitations: Pilot in Command 14 C.F .R. § 61.113(

a) provides that

a pilot who holds

a private pilot certificate may, for compensation

or hire, act as a Pilot in Command

of an aircraft ("PIC").

14 C.F.R.

§ 61.113(b) provides that

a private pilot may act as pilot in command

of an aircraft
in connection with any business

or employment

if the flight
is only incidental

to that business

or employment.

An exemption

to this regulation

is requested

to the extent that

a private pilot may act as a PIC for compensation

or hire for sUAS flights that may be more than incidental

to his or her employment. The equivalent level of safety will be maintained because

at all times the PIC must hold

a private pilot or higher level certificate,

as well as current and valid airman medical certificate,

and will have met certain flight-hour and currency requirements. Based on complying with these standards, the PIC will demonstrate that he or she is able to safely operate the DJI Phantom

3 sUAS in a manner consistent with the operations specification

as described

in this exemption, including evasive and emergency maneuvers,

as well as maintaining appropriate distances from people, vessels, vehicles and structures. Finally, the Applicant submits that all of its sUAS flights conducted
by the PIC are (1) incidental

to the Applicant's business and (2) will not carry any passengers

or property for compensation

or hire. 14 C.F.R.

§ 91. 7(a}:-Civil Aircraft Airworthiness 14 C.F .R.
§ 91.7 provides that no person may operate

a civil aircraft unless

it is in an airworthy condition.
As there will be no airworthiness certificate issued for the aircraft, should this exemption

be granted,
no FAA regulatory standard will exist for determining airworthiness. Given the size of the aircraft and the requirements contained

in the operating materials for maintenance
and sue of safety check lists prior to each flight, an equivalent level of safety will be provided. 14 C.F.R.

§ 91.9(b)(2),(c}--Civil Aircraft Flight ManuaL Marking, and Placard Reguirements
14 C.F.R.

§ 91.9(b)(2),
(c) provides that

a person may not "operate

a U.S.-registered
civil aircraft ... unless there is available

in the aircraft

a current approved Airplane
or Rotorcraft Flight Manual, approved manual material, markings, and placards,
or any combination thereof''; and "that aircraft

is identified

in accordance with part 45 of this chapter." The Applicant requests

an exemption from these provisions because, given its size and configuration,

the sUAS has no ability or place to carry such

a flight manual on the aircraft, not only because there
is no pilot on board, but because there is no room or capacity

to carry such an item on the aircraft. Also, as stated above, the Applicant requests and exemption from 14 C.F.R. 45.23(b), which provides certain requirements

for the markings
on aircrafts. For the same reasons stated under that section, Applicant requests
an exemption from 14 C.F.R.

§ 91.9(c). Dallas Cowboys Football Club, Ltd Request for Section 333 Exemption

by keeping the flight manual

at the ground control point where the PIC will have immediate access
to it. 14 C.F.R.

§ 91.103-Preflight Action 14 C.F.R.

§ 91.103 provides that each PIC is obligated

to take certain actions before flight to ensure the safety of flight. As FAA approved rotorcraft flight manuals will not be provided for the aircraft an exemption will be needed. An equivalent level of safety will be provided

as set forth in the Aircraft Operating Manual ("AOM")
of the sUAS. The PIC will take all actions
as described

in the AOM and to the extent possible under this regulation, including reviewing weather conditions, flight battery requirements, landing and takeoff distance and aircraft performance data before initiation
of a flight. 14 C.F.R.

§ 91.109-Fiight Instruction 14 C.F.R.

§ 91.109 provides that no person may operate

a civil aircraft (except

a manned free balloon) that is being used for flight instruction unless that aircraft has fully functioning dual controls. sUAS and remotely piloted aircraft, such as the DJI Phantom

3 used by the Applicant,
by their design do not have fully functional dual controls. Flight control

is accomplished through the use of a control box that communicates with the aircraft via radio communications. An equivalent level of safety will be maintained because neither the PIC nor passengers will be carried
in the sUAS; the size and speed of the sUAS
is such that any safety concerns within the controlled area are minimal, and; the person using the sUAS for flight instruction will, at all times, be under the direct supervision

of an instructor who is currently being qualified

to be a PIC. 14 C.F.R.

§ 91.119(b),(cl-:=Minimum

Safe Altitudes 14 C.F .R. § 91.119(b) provides that an aircraft must maintain

a minimum altitude of 1,000 feet "above the highest obstacle within

a horizontal radius of 2,000 feet of the aircraft"

if it is operated within "any congested area of a city, town, or settlement,

or over any open air assembly of persons."

14 C.F.R.

§ 91.119(c) similarly provides that the aircraft must maintain

a minimum altitude of 500 feet "above the surface, except over open water or sparsely populated areas,"
if the flight
is over an area that is not congested

or at least 500 feet from any person, vessel, vehicle,
or structure. The Applicant requests
an exemption from these provisions because, due to the nature of the operations,

it is necessary
for the sUAS to operate

at elevations much lower than those. A higher level of safety will be achieved because the low-altitude operations

of the sUAS will ensure separation between

it and the operations

of the much larger conventional aircrafts that must comply with this Section, which dramatically lowers the risk that the sUAS will come into contact with other aircraft. Also,

a higher level of safety
is promoted because, by allowing the PIC to operate within 500 feet of the sUAS,

it ensures that the small sUAS will at all times be within the PIC's Visual Line of Sight ("VLOS''). Furthermore,

an equivalent level of safety
is maintained Dallas Cowboys Football Club, Ltd Request for Section 333 Exemption

M* given the size, weight, and speed of the sUAS,
as well as the location

in which

it is operated. Because
of the private, closed, and controlled nature of the locations and the operation,

all affected individuals will be aware of the planned flight operations and the sUAS's distance from them. 14 C.F.R.

§ 91.121-Altimeter Settings 14 C.P.R.

§ 91.121 provides that each person operating

an aircraft must maintain cruising altitudes by reference

to an altimeter that is set "to the elevation
of the departure airport or an appropriate altimeter setting available before departure." The Applicant requests
an exemption because the sUAS does not have

a barometric altimeter, but instead

a GPS altitude read out. An equivalent level of safety will be achieved
by the operator, pursuant

to the operating materials and Safety Check list, confirming
the altitude of the launch site shown on the GPS altitude indicator before flight. 14 C.F.R.

§ 91.151(a)(ll-Fuel Requirements

for Flight in VFR Conditions 14 C.P.R.§ 91.151(a)(1) provides that "[n]o person may begin

a flight in an airplane under VFR conditions unless (considering wind and forecast weather conditions) there is enough fuel to fly to the first point of intended landing and, assuming normal cruising speed ...

[ d]uring the day, to fly after that for at least 30 minutes." The Applicant requests
an exemption from this provision because the battery powering the sUAS provides approximately

25 minutes
of powered flight. Given
th e limitations

on the sUAS's proposed flight area and the location
of its proposed operations within

a predetermined area,

a longer timeframe
for flight in daylight
or twilight VFR conditions

is reasonable. Enforcement

of this provision would greatly diminish the utility of the operations
for which this Application was intended

to permit. Operating the sUAS in a tightly controlled area where only people and property owners
or official representatives
who have signed waivers will be allowed, with less than 30 minutes
of reserve battery life, does not engender the type of risks that this Section was intended

to alleviate given the size and speed of the sUAS. Applicant believes that an equivalent level of safety can be achieved by following the operating instructions and limitations contained

in the AOM, which

is attached

to this Application,

by utilizing the "Low Battery [Return

to Home]" feature-a low battery level failsafe where the sUAS will automatically return to and land at its "home" location when the battery level
is critically low. 14 C.F.R.

§ 91.203(a),(b}--Carrving

Civil Aircraft Certification
and Registration 14 C.P.R.§ 91.203(a) and (b) provide that "no person may operate

a civil aircraft unless

it has ... [a]n appropriate and current airworthiness certificate," which "is displayed

at the cabin or cockpit entrance

so that it is legible
to passengers

or crew." The Applicant requests
an exemption from these provisions because the sUAS weighs no more than 55 lbs, full loaded, and is operated without
an onboard pilot, crew, or passengers.

and registration documents

or to display them on the sUAS. Moreover,

if Applicant is granted
an exemption from Part 21, it will not have an airworthiness certificate issued
to it. Thus, it will not have an airworthiness certificate

to display
or carry. An equivalent level of safety will be achieved because there is no pilot, crew, or passengers onboard

at any time, thus the policy and safety concerns contemplated

by 14 C.F .R. § 91.203 are not applicable

in the operation
of the Applicant's sUAS. Moreover,
the operator
of the sUAS will at all times have immediate access
to the appropriate documents relating

to the sUAS's airworthiness
and registration 14 C.F.R. §§ 91.405(a); 407(a)(l); 409(a)(2); 417(a),(b>=Maintenance Inspections These regulations require the owner or operator
of an aircraft
to have the "aircraft inspected as prescribed

in subpart

E of this part and shall between required inspections, except
as provided in paragraph

(c) of this section, have discrepancies repaired

as prescribed

in part 43 of this chapter," and others shall inspect
or maintain the aircraft
in compliance with Part 43. Given that these sections and Part 43 apply only to aircraft with an airworthiness certificate, these sections will not apply to the Applicant. Maintenance
will be accomplished

by the operator pursuant

to the guidelines
set forth in the Maintenance manuals designed for the sUAS. An equivalent level of safety will be achieved because the sUAS
is very limited
in size and will carry

a small payload and operate only in restricted areas for limited periods
of time. If mechanical issues arise the sUAS can land immediately
and will be operating from no higher than 400 feet AGL. As provided

in the operating materials the operator will ensure that the sUAS
is in working order prior to initiating flight, perform required maintenance,
and keep

a log of any maintenance performed. Moreover,
the operator

is the person most familiar with the aircraft and best suited to maintain the aircraft
in an airworthy conditions

to provide the equivalent level of safety. IV. GRANTING APPLICANT'S REQUEST WILL BENEFIT THE PUBLIC AS A WHOLE Granting the Applicant's request for an exemption will benefit the public
as a whole because it provides

a safe, controlled area of operation

in which
to hone the innovative technology that small unmanned aerial systems provide. As described

in greater detail below, the use of the sUAS presents
an opportunity

to enhance the safety of those in attendance

at sporting events. The current technology, generally referred

to as the Skycam, presents many safety concerns that are not present
in the use of a sUAS. Skycams are
a complex systems of pulleys, cables, bolts, and fasteners-elements

not present
in sUASs. Tightly strung, heavy cables are attached

at the highest point of stadiums, putting many people

at risk if a wire snaps. The bulky Skycam itself weighs approximately

50 lbs, and could potentially cause serious injury if it were to fall from its guide wires. The sUAS, on the other hand, weighs less than 10 lbs and is not tethered. Dallas Cowboys Football Club, ltd Request for Section 333 Exemption

7 DALLAS COWBOYS

I ONE COWBOYS PARKWAY IRVING, TEXAS 75063

I 972.497.4900

I DALLASCOWBOYS.COM* Thus this technology presents
an opportunity

to significantly reduce the zone of danger and the risk of injury to the general viewing public. By granting this exception,
the Applicant and other college and professional sports teams can begin utilizing this technology

in their practices, and thereby begitl analyzing the viability
of sUAS technology

in connection with their sporting events. Furthermore,

the DJI Phantom

3 is battery powered and serves
as a safe, efficient, and economical alternative manned aircraft traditionally used to obtain aerial imagery. An exemption allowing the use of a DJI Phantom

3 would reduce the amount of manned aircraft
in the NAS, reduce noise and air pollution,

as well as increase the safety of life and property

in th e air and on the ground. V. GRANTING APPLICANT'S REQUEST WILL NOT ADVERSELY AFFECT SAFETY BUT PROVIDE

A LEVEL OF SAFETY AT LEAST EQUAL TO THE EXISTING RULE In consideration

of the size, weight, speed, and limited operating area associated with the unmanned aircraft and its operation, the Applicant's operation
of the DJI Phantom

3 sUAS meets the conditions

of the FAA Reform Act Section 333, and will not require and airworthiness certificate

in accordance with 14 C.F.R. Part 21, Subpart
H. Because
of (1) the nature and scope of the Applicant's operations,
(2) the specifications

of the DJI Phantom

3, and (3) the self-imposed specific operating limitations, Applicant submits that it will operate the DJI Phantom

3 safely in the NAS pursuant

to the FAA Reform Act Section 333 A. The Nature and Scope of the Operations Will Not Adversely Affect Safety Due to their nature and scope, the Applicant's proposed operations will not adversely affect safety. The Applicant contemplates conducting

its sUAS operations over land that it owns and controls, solely during daylight hours,
at altitudes well below that which would pose

a risk to other aircraft. Such operations will be conducted

in areas not restricted
by the FAA, i.e. distant from congested areas and airports. The operations
are intended

to provide
an aerial view of the football practices

at the Applicant's outdoor training facilities.
As such, the nature of the sUAS's operations will be mostly stationary, hovering

at a safe distance above and behind the athletes. The National Football League has rules in place regarding the distance

in which an unmanned camera must remain away from players, with which Applicant must comply. The Applicant does not contemplate operating the sUAS outside the bounds of a regulation football field (360'x 160'). Moreover,
the Applicant does not contemplate using the sUAS
at an altitude lower or higher than that of the Skycam, which

is the current standard for suspended videography

at playing fields. Thus, due to the small area in which the sUAS will be confined and its limited flight, the Applicant believes that these operations will not adversely affect safety. The use of cameras hovering over playing fields to provide aerial views of sporting events

is not novel. For many years, the industry standard has been the use of a "Skycam" which
is a robotic Dallas Cowboys Football Club, Ltd Request for Section 333 Exemption

a cable-driven, computerized transport system. The Applicant believes by allowing the use of a sUAS in its tightly controlled practice fields will provide the same level, if not
a higher level, of safety than the Skycam. Skycams use
a metal cable, tightly strung across the field, in order to provide steady movement. The risk of injury from

a Skycam cable breaking is higher than if an sUAS falling: the cables and Skycam cover

a larger area than the diminutive area of the sUAS. Moreover,

a sUAS operator

is more capable of determining when the sUAS will fall than his Skycam counterpart:
the sUAS sends

a notification

to the operator when

it is malfunctioning

and conducts

a failsafe operation

to land back at "home". Finally, the size of the Skycam

is much larger than the DJI Phantom

3. The Skycam itself
is 50 lbs; the sUAS weighs 1280 grams,
or approximately 2.82lbs. Finally,

as demonstrated below, the Applicant will conduct closed practice sessions

in connection with the use of the sUAS. Much like with closed set motion picture aerial filming, Applicant will ensure that it sets up a secure perimeter
by which no unauthorized personnel will be permitted from entering. Unauthorized personnel will
b e at least 100 feet from the practice facility where the sUAS will be operated. All participants will be advised of the operations and the risks associated and be required

to give written consent prior to the commencement

of the sUAS operations. B. The Specifications

C. Markings must be as large as practicable. 7. The minimum crew for each operation will consist of the PIC and
a visual observer,

so that there is always

a redundant
set of eyes for operators 8. Observer and pilot will at all times be able to communicate

by voice 9. Pilot and observer will have been trained

or sport pilot certificate. The PIC must also hold

a current FAA airman medical certification

or a valid U.S. driver's license. 12. The sUAS will only operate within

a confined "Area of Operation"

as defined

in the operating materials. 13. A briefing will be conducted

in regard
to the planned sUAS operations prior to each day's activities.

It will be mandatory that all p'ersonnel who will be performing duties within the boundaries

of the safety perimeter
be present for this briefing 14. The operator will file
a FAA Form 7711-1,
or its equivalent,

as modified

in light of the requested exemption, with the appropriate Flight Standards District Office (FSDO) 1 5. The operator will obtain the consent of all persons involved

in the filming and ensure that only consenting persons will be allowed within 100 feet of the flight operation 16. The operator will submit

a written Plan of Activities

to the FSDO three days before the proposed shoot 17. Written and/or oral permission from the relevant property holders will be obtained 18. All required permissions
and permits will be obtained from territorial, state, county
or city jurisdictions, including local law enforcement,

to ensure

it is in a condition
for safe flight. If the inspection reveals

A SUMMARY
TO BE PUBLISHED

IN THE FEDERAL REGISTER Pursuant

to 14 C.F .R. Part 11, the following swnmary

is provided for publication

in the Federal Register, should

it be determined that publication

is needed: Applicant, Dallas Cowboys Football Club Ltd., seeks an exemption from 14 C.F.R.
§§ 21, subpart H; 45.23(b); 61.113(a),(b); 91.7(a); 91.9(b)(2),(c); 91.103; 91.109; 91.119(b),(c); 91.121; 91.151(a)(1); 91.203(a),(b); 91.405(a); 91.407(a)(1); 91.417(a),(b)

to permit the use of small unmanned aerial systems (sUAS)
to conduct videography
and imaging over its training facilities, solely during daylight hours. VII. REQUEST FOR EXPEDITED REVIEW AND SUMMARY GRANT In addition

to the foregoing, Applicant respectfully requests
an expedited review of this Application through the Swnmary Grant process. The FAA will issue

a swnmary grant "when

it finds
it has already granted

a previous exemption similar
to the new request."

12* greatly enhances the efficiency
of the review process becaus

e the FAA can use former petitions

as precedent
for future petitions, such as this one. Because the requested exemption would not set precedent, and because any delay in acting on this Application would be detrimental

to Applicant, good cause exists for granting this Petition without delay and on an expedited basis pursuant

to the FAA's streamlined Summary Grant process. Specifically,
the FAA has previously granted exemptions

for operators wishing

to conduct aerial video and photography

of sporting events
in Grants of Exemption Nos. 11760 (Brian
L. Short) and 11974 (Hawkeye Technologies). VIII. PRIVACY All flights will occur over private or controlled access property with the property representative or owner's prior consent and knowledge. Filming will be of people who have also consented

to being filmed or otherwise have agreed
to be in the area wher

e filming will take place. All flights will occur in accordance with any state or local laws regarding privacy. IX. CONCLUSION The use
of sUASs
in connection with aerial photography
and videography

of a sports team's outdoor practices

is a burgeoning practice within professional
and collegiate sports and is well documented through various forms of media. Yet, no such team has been granted
an exemption for its sUAS operations. The presence
of sUAS's

in American sports will only increase

as teams begin
to realize the enhanced safety and practical advantages from utilizing sUAS technology. The Applicant,

a highprofile American professional football franchise, prides itself on consistently setting higher standards within professional
and amateur sports, while providing

an enhanced level of satisfaction for its millions
of fans across the globe. Accordingly,

by submitting this Petition for Exemption, the Applicant hopes to encourage other teams utilizing sUAS's

to file their own Petitions with the FAA, thus ensuring that this innovative technology

is operated safely within the national air space. Dallas Cowboys Football Club, Ltd Request for Section 333 Exemption

.Flight Modes, Functions and Warnings Flight Modes [&WARNING) To avoid serious Injury and property damage, observe the following rule: 1) Do NOT switch from
P mode to either
A mode or F mode unless you are sufficiently familiar with the aircraft's behavior tor each flight mode, sinca disabling GPS may result
in being unable
to land the aircraft safely. [ NOTICE] P mode

is preferred
for most fly

i ng scenarios

. Users can switch
to A mod
e where and when

P mode

is unavailable

. Be aware that some features are NOT avai

l able for A mode, and therefore
be EXTRA cautious when flying

in A mode

. 1) P mode (Positioning)

: P mode works best when the GPS signal

is strong. There are three different states of P mode, which will be automat

i cally selected
by the Phantom

3 depending

on GPS signal strength and Vision Positioning sensors: a) P-BPS

: GPS and Vision Positioning
are both available, and the aircraft

is using GPS for **pos~ioning** b) P-OPTI

: If GPS
is NOT available, the aircraft will use the Vision Positioning System

to hover accurately. Note that the Vision Positioning System may NOT work properly when the Phantom

3

i s flying over water

, over surfaces without

a clear pattern

, or in a low light environment. c) P-ATII

: When neither GPS nor Vis

i on Positioning

is available

, the aircraft

is using only

i ts barometer
for position

i ng, so only altitude

i s controlled

. 2) A mode (Attitude)

: The GPS and VISion Positioning System are NOT used fOf positioning

. The aircraft any uses its barometer

to maintain altrude

. If it is still receiving

a GPS signal, the aircraft can automatically return horne

if the Remote Controller signal

i s lost and

if the Home Point has been recorded successfully

. 3) F mode (Function)

: Intelligent Orientation Control (IOC)

is activated

in this mode. Ensure you are familiar **w~** IOC funct

i ons before use. If you intend
to switch
to modes that disable GPS assistance (e.g., A mode), you are required

to accept the prompted disclaimer

to enable this function.

If this function

is enabled, you further understand and agree that data including but not limited
to flight telemetry data and function records could be uploaded

to and maintained

on a DJI des

i gnated server

. Failsafe and Return
to Home [ NOTICE] 1) The Return
to Home feature will NOT work

if the GPS signal

is insufficient

or if GPS
is not active

. 2) Press the RTH (Return
to Home) Button on the remote controller

to bring the aircraft back to the Home Point instead
of turning off the remote controller

. 3) Tall buildings may adversely affect the Failsafe function. Please adjust the aircraft location, **alt~de** and speed while returning home to avoid obstacles. 4) Make sure to always fly the aircraft within the transmission range of the remote controller. 5) Only use the Failsafe and Return
to Home functions

i n case of emergency,

as they may be affected
by the weather, the environment,

or any nearby magnetic fields

.6) The aircraft cannot avoid obstac

l es dur

i ng the Failsafe RTH: therefore

it is

i mportant

to set an appropriate Failsafe altitude before each

f ight

. 7) When flying indoors, the aircraft cannot perform precision hovering when flying above the surfaces that do not have
a clear pattem. Refer to the "Vision Positioning System" section for complete indoor flying criteria

. Low Battery [ NOTICE

I 1) When the Critical Battery Level Warning activates and the aircraft

is descending automatically,
you may push the throttle up to maintain the aircraft's altitude and navigate

it to a more appropriate location for l and

i ng. 2) When battery wamings are tr

i ggered

, promptly bring the aircraft back to the Home Point or land to avoid losing power during flight and causing damage

to the aircraft, property, animals

, and people. VIsion Positioning System [ NOTICE) 1) The V

i sion Positioning System cannot work properly over surfaces tha

t do NOT have pattern variations. The effective altitude for the Vision Positioning System

to function correctly

is less than

2

. 5 meters above ground level (AGL)

. 2) The Vision Positioning System may NOT function properly when the aircraft

is flying over water. 3) Keep your pets away from the aircraft when the Vis

i on Positioning System

is act

i vated, as the sonar sensors emit
a high frequency sound that is only audible
to some pets. 4) Note that the Vision Positioning System may NOT function properly when the aircraft

is flying too fast or too low

. 5) Operate the aircraft cautiously when

in any of the following situations: a) Rying over monochrome surfaces

(e

. g

. , pure black, pure white, pure red, pure green)

. b) Rying over highly reflective surfaces: c) Rying
at high speeds (over 8m/s at 2 meters
or over 4m/s at 1 meter): d) Rying over water or transparent surfaces

: e) Flying over mcving surfaces

or objects

: f) Flying

in an area where the lighting changes frequently

or drastically; g) Rying over extremely dark (lux < 1 0) or bright (lux > 1 0,000) surfaces: h) Rying over surfaces that can absorb sound waves (e.g., thick carpet). i ) Rying over surfaces without clear patterns
or texture

: j) Rying over surfaces with identical repeating patterns
or textures

(e

. g . tiles with same design): k) Rying over inclined surfaces that will deflect sound waves away from the aircraft 6) In the event of loss of the remote controller's signal, the aircraft will hover for 8 seconds and then auto-land if it is in

' P " mode
