## Start & Stop Motor Knowledge

(1) Both Immediately Mode and Intelligent Mode are available in the Assistant Software: Advanced

- >Motor

- >Stop Type. (2) Stop Motor method is defaulted to Immediately Mode

. Please get to kno w well about this section before flying. 1 Start Motor : Pushing throttle stick before takeoff will not start the motors. You have to execute any one of following four Combination Stick Commands (CSC) to start the motors:© 201 3 DJI Innovations. All Rights Reserved. 2 Stop Motor : We provide two options to stop motors in the assistant software : Imm ediately and Intelligent. (1) Immediately Mode: If you select this mode, in any control mode, once motor s start and throttle stick is over 10%, motors will not stop immediately only when throttle stick is back under 10% the motors will stop. In this case, if you push the throttle stick over 10% within 5 seconds after motors stop, motors
will re

- start, CSC is not needed. If you don’t push throttle stick after motors start in three seconds, motors will stop automatically. (2) Intelligent Mode: By using this mode, different control mode has different way of stopping motors. In Manual Mode, only executing CSC can sto p motors. In A TTI. Mode or GPS ATTI . Mode, any one of following four cases will stop motors: a) You don’t push throttle stick after motors start within three seconds; b) Executing CSC; c) Throttle stick under 10 %, and after landing for more than 3 seconds. d) If the a ngle of multi

- rotor is over 70°, and throttle stick under 10%.


## Notes of Intelligent Mode

(1) In ATTI. / GPS ATTI. Mode, it has landing judgment, which will stop motors. (2) Start motors in ATTI. / GPS ATTI. Mode, you have to execute CSC and then push throttle s tick over 10% in 3 seconds, otherwise motors will stop after 3 seconds. (3) During normal flight, only pull throttle stick under 10% will not stop motors in any control mode. (4) For safety reason, when the slope angle of multi

- rotor is over 70° during the flight in ATTI. / GPS ATTI. Mode (may be caused by collision, motor and ESC error or propeller broken down), and throttle stick is under 10%, motors will stop automatically. 

## Notes of Intelligent Mode & Immediately Mode (1) If you choose the Immediately Mode , you s hould not pull throttle stick under 10% during flight, because it will stop motors. If you do it accidentally, you should push the throttle stick over 10% in 5s to re

- start motors. (2) DO NOT execute the CSC during normal flight without any reason, or it will stop motors at once. (1) If you choose the Intelligent mode, and the throttle stick is under 10%, this will trigger the landing Procedure, in any control mode. In this judgment, pitch, roll and yaw controls are denied except the throttle, but multi

- rotor wi ll still auto level. (2) In any control mode, DO NOT pull throttle stick under 10% during normal flight without any

reason. (1) Any of these two cut off types will only work properly if T X calibration is correct done. (2) In failed

- safe, CSC is denied by the main c ontroller, motors will hold their state.© 201 3 DJI Innovations. All Rights Reserved. 

### Step 

# 1 Compass Calibration Without GPS module, please skip this step. If you use w ith GPS module, follow step

- by

- step for calibration. (1) DO NOT calibrate your compass where there is magnetic interference, such as ma gnetite, car park, and steel reinforcement under the ground. (2) DO NOT carry ferromagnetic materials with you during calibration, such as keys or cell phones. (3) Compass module CANNOT work in the polar circle. (4) Compass Calibration is very important, otherwise the system will work abnormal. 

### Calibration Procedures
1. Switch on the transmitter, and then power on autopilot system!
2. Quickly switch the control mode switch from GPS Mode to Manual Mode and back to GPS Mode (or from GPS Mode to ATTI. Mode and back to GPS Mod e ) for more than 5 times, The LED indicator will turn on constantly yellow so that the aircraft is ready for the calibration

. 3. (Fig.1) Hold your Multi

- rotor horizontal and r otate it around the gravitational force line (about 360 o ) until the LED changes to c onstant green, and then go to the next step. 4. (Fig.2) Hold your Multi

- rotor vertically and rotate it ( its nose is downward ) around the gravitational force line (about 360 o ) until the LED turns off, meaning the calibration is finished

.

Fig.1 Fig.2
5. If the calibration was successful, calibration mode will exit automatically. If the LED keeps flashing quickly Red, the calibration has failed. Switch the control mode switch o ne time to cancel the calibration, and then re

- start from step 2. 1. When the GPS is abnormal, the Main controller will tell you by the LED blinking Red and Yellow alternately ( ), disable the GPS Module, and auto matically enter the aircraft into the ATTI. Mode. 2. You don’t need to rotate your multi

- rotor on a precise horizontal or vertical surface, but keep at least 45° difference between horizontal and vertical calibration. 3. If you keep having calibration failure, i t might suggest that there is very strong magnetic interference around the GPS /Compass module, please avoid flying in this area. 4. When to do re

- calibration (1) The flight field is changed. (2) When the multi

- rotor mechanical setup has changed: a) If the GPS/Compass m odule is re

- positioned. b) If electronic devices are added/removed/ re

- positioned (Main Controller, servos, batteries, etc.). c) When the mechanical structure of the multi

- rotor is changed. (3) If the flight direction appears to be shifting (meaning the multi

- rotor doesn’t “fly straight”). (4) The LED indicator often indicates abnormality blinking when the multi

- rotor spins. (It is normal for this to happen only occasionally)© 201 3 DJI Innovations. All Rights Reserved. 

## Step 

# 2 Assembly Checking List Please check each item, to make sure for safety.

Any of the fol lowing mistakes will lead to a dangerous accident, double check all these items: (1) Rotation direction of motor is opposite (2) Infirm connection between the motor and the ESC (3) Wrong or infirm installation of Main controller (4) Wrong or infirm connection between t he main controller and ESC. (5) Propeller installation mistak e (6) M agnetiz ation of t he compass Make sure the following items are correct. (1) Make sure you have assembled your multi

- rotor correctly. (2) Make sure you have done the configuration procedure correctly. (3) Ma ke sure all connections are in good condition. (4) Make sure batteries are fully charged for your transmitter, autopilot system and all devices.


## Step 

# 3 Before Flight Carry out the following procedures (is based on Intelligent Mode of Motor Stop) to make sure all configurations are correct. Refer to the Appendix

- >LED Description for more LED details. 1. Always switch on the transmitter first, then power on multi

- rotor! 2. Keep the aircraft stationary until the system start and self

- check has finished ( )

. After that, the LED may blink Yellow 4 times quickly ( )

. Start motor is disable during LED blink ing Yellow 4 times quickly ( ) , as the sys tem is warm ing up . 3. After the 4 times Yellow LED disappear s, t oggle the control mode switch on your transmitter to make sure it
is working properly. For examp le, LED blinks ( ), which means the system is in ATTI. Mode and the GPS s ignal is worst Check it with LED indicator to specify the current working mode for MC. See following table for details about LED indicator; (1) There are Manual Mode and ATTI. Mode without a GPS /Compas s module, no GPS signal status LED indicator. (2) After connect ing to the GPS /Compass module, GPS ATTI. Mode is available , and GPS signal status LED indicator is available

. Control Mode LED Indicator GPS Signal Status LED Indicator

Manual Mode: NO LED ATTI. Mode: ( indicates that is stick(s) not at center) GPS Mode : ( indicates that is stick( s) not at center ) Signal is best ( GPS satellites > 6 ) : NO LED Signal is well ( GPS satellites = 6 ) : Signal is bad ( GPS satellites = 5 ) : Signal is worst ( GPS satellites< 5 ) :© 201 3 DJI Innovations. All Rights Reserved. 4. Keep the aircraft stationary, and then push both sticks to the left bottom or right bottom (shown as the following chart , defined as Combination Stick Commands (CSC) ), to start the motors.

5. Release the yaw, roll and pitch sticks and keep them at the mid point , and the throttle stick under the mid point

. T hen check whether all propellers are r otating correctly. 6. Stop motors, power off the Multi

- rotor

. 7. Make sure all settings and configurations are correct and then you can take off you aircraft.



### After power on , if abnormal LED Indicator occurs, please refer to the Abnormal LED instruction in the FAQ and aids troubleshooting.



### Step 

# 4 Flying Test
1. Choose an open space without obstruction, tall buildings and crowds as flying filed. Place the aircraft 3 meters away from you and others, to avoid accidental injury. 2. If in GPS ATTI. Mode, place the aircraft in an open space without buildings or trees. Take off the aircraft after 6 or more GPS satellites are found (Red LED blinks once or no blinking). If in Manual Mode or ATTI. Mode, you can skip this step.
3. Start

- up (1) S witch on the transmitter first, then powe r on multi

- rotor! Keep the aircraft stationary until the system start and self

- check has finished. (2) Please wait for the system to warm up gradually with the LED blinks Yellow 4 times quickly ( ). You should not star t the motors until the blinking disappears. (3) Keep the aircraft stationary, and execute the CSC to start the motors. (4) Release the yaw, roll and pitch sticks and keep them at the mid point , at the same time raise the throttle stick from the bottom. The motors will stop if you do not push the throttle stick from the bottom within 3 sec and you will need to re

- start the motors. (5) Keep raising the throttle stick until all the rotors are working, push the throttle stick to the mid point
and then take

- off your multi

- rotor gently, pay attention not to push the stick excessively. (6) Pay attention to the aircraft movement at any time when flying, and use the sticks to adjust the aircraft’s position. Keep the yaw, roll, pitch and throttle sticks at the mid point to hover the aircraft at the desired height. 

### 4. Lower the aircraft slowly. Pull the throttle stick to the bottom and then execute the CSC to stop the motors after landing. 

### 5. Please always power off the Multi

- rotor first, and then switch off the transmitter after landing.© 201 3 DJI Innovations. All Rights Reserved. 

### FLYING NOTES(VERY IMPORTANT) !!! (1) If the warm up waiting is longer than 2 minutes (the 4 times Yellow blink c ontinue s ), please power off for 10 minutes, cold start, and then connect the assistant software, enter the "Tools"

- > IMU calibration, carry out the Advanced calibration. (2) I f you enable the Immediately Mode of Motor Stop ; you should not pull throttle stick under 10% during flight, because it will stop motors. If you do it accidentally, you should push the throttle stick over 10% in 5s to re

- start m otors. (3) DO NOT execute the CSC during normal flight without any reason, or it will stop motors at once. (4) Pay attention to the GPS satellite status LED indicator. Bad GPS signal may lead the aircraft to drift when hovering. (5) DO NOT fly near to ferromagnetic s ubstances, to avoid strong magnetic interference with the GPS. (6) Please avoid using GPS ATTI. Mode in the areas, where GP S signal is most likely bad

. (7) If the LED flashes quickly Red then this indicates battery voltage is low, land ASAP. (8) If the transmitter ind icates low

- battery alarm, please land ASAP. In this condition the transmitter may cause the aircraft to go out of control or even crash. (9) In GPS ATTI. Mode, make sure that the home point is recorded when the GPS signal is well; otherwise the home point rec ording may be not so precise. (1) In ATTI Mode, throttle stick center position is for 0m/s along the vertical direction. You should keep the position of throttle stick higher than 10% from cut

- throttle during the flight! In any control mode, DO NOT pull thr ottle stick under 10% during normal flight without any reason. (2) It is recommended to land the aircraft slowly, to prevent the aircraft from damage when landing. (3) If Low

- Voltage Alarm is set, the aircraft will act according to the configuration of the Assista nt Software once Low

- Voltage Alarm is triggered. Make sure you remember what you have set before. (4) If Fail

- Safe function is set, the aircraft will act according to the configuration of the Assistant Software once Fail

- Safe is triggered. Make sure you rememb er what you have set before.© 201 3 DJI Innovations. All Rights Reserved. 

# Advanced Functions A 

# 1 FailSafe An introduction of Go

- Home and Landing.

Home

- point: Before takeoff, current position of multi

- rotor will be saved as home

- point by MC automatically when
you start t he motors for the first time after 6 or more GPS satellites are found (red light blinks once or no blinking)
for 10 seconds.

Note 1. Please make sure to record the home

- point before takeoff, and clearly know where it is.

2. During go

- home the nose direc tion of the aircraft is facing toward the home

- point, the aircraft is flying directly from the current position to the home

- point. 3. You can regain the control during the aircraft is hovering 15 seconds.© 201 3 DJI Innovations. All Rights Reserved. 

## A 

# 2 Low

- Voltage Alert In order to prevent your multi

- rotor from a crash or other harmful consequences caused by low battery voltage, there are two levels of low voltage protection available to use. You can choose to use or not to use them; however we strongly recommend using th e protections if available! Low

- Voltage Alert is to indicate that the battery cannot provide enough power for the aircraft, in order to warn you to land the aircraft ASAP. You can configure this
function in the assistant software, and please read the text in the software carefully before your flight. Make sure to carry out the Current Voltage Calibration.

There are both first level and second level protections. The first level protection has LED warning. During second level protection the aircraft will lan d automatically with LED warning. Meanwhile the center point of throttle stick will move up slowly to 90% of endpoint, you should land ASAP to prevent your aircraft from crashing! It is not for fun, you should land your aircraft ASAP to prevent your aircra ft from crashing or other harmful consequences!!!

# 3 Intelligent Orientation Control (IOC) Flight (with GPS module) Definition of Forward Direction: 

### Multi

- rotor will fly along this direction when you push the elevator stick ( ). 

## Step 

# 1 Before You Start Usually, the forward direction of a flying multi

- rotor is the same as the nose direction. By using IOC, wherever the nose points, the forward direction has nothing to do with nose direction. The red and bl ue arrows on the transmitter are corresponding to pitch and roll operations in the following diagram.
 In course lock flying, the forward direction is the same as a recorded nose direction. All the following requirements are met: the autopilot system is in ATTI. Mode or GPS ATTI. Mode.

Normal flying Course Lock Flying
 In home lock flying, the forward direction is the same as the direction from home point to multi

- rotor. All the following requirements are met: 6 or more G PS satellites are found, in GPS ATTI. Mode, and the aircraft is further than 10m away from the home point.

Normal flying Home Lock Flying 

## Step 

# 2 IOC Switch Setting Before using the IOC function, you have to choo se a 3

- position switch on your transmitter as the IOC switch, which is also used for recording the orientation, home position in corresponding modes. Refer to the assistant software; click the “Advanced” to find the “IOC”.

IOC Switch

IOC Function OF F Course Lock Home Lock
The above table is for example. The function of the switch position may be reversed since the normal/reversed setting of the switch channel. Toggle the switch and observe the slider position of channel X2 on the assistant softwa re screen, the corresponding area should turn blue.© 201 3 DJI Innovations. All Rights Reserved. 

## Step 

# 3 Method of Forward Direction and Home Point Recording If you use the IOC function, please be aware of the Forward Direction of Course Lock Flying, and the home point of Home Lock Flying. There are t wo ways to record the forward direction and the home point : Manually and Automatically. You may choose any one record method. The LED will blink Green quickly if successfully recorded.
Course Lock Home Lock

Automatically 30 seconds after you power on th e autopilot system. Before takeoff, the current position of the aircraft will be saved as home point when you start the
motors for the first time after 6 or more GPS satellites have been found for 10 seconds.

Manually 30 seconds after you power on the

aut opilot system. Toggle the IOC switch from Off to Course Lock, and back to Off

quickly 3 to 5 times. After 6 or more GPS satellites have been found. A nd the aircraft can be hovering. Toggle the IOC switch from Course Lock to Home Lock, and back to Course L ock quickly 3 to 5 times. DO NOT toggle the switch between Off to Home Lock, since it may change the recording of the Forward Direction of Course Lock

. 

## Step

(1) When Multi

- rotor is flying by home lock far away from you and the home point, please DO NOT toggle the IOC switch many times quickly so as to avoid the change of h ome point without your
attention. (1) Home lock flying requires that 6 or more GPS satellites are found and the aircraft is further than 10m away from the home point. (2) If the IOC flying requirement is not satisfied, the autopilot system will quit IOC control mode. Please be aware of the LED indicator, to know the current control mode of the autopilot system.

(1) Blinking indications of IOC are:

a) Before motors start: blink , all sticks (except throttle s tick) return to center;

blink , stick(s) (except throttle stick) not at center. b) After motors start and throttle stick is over 10% in 3 seconds: blink , all sticks
return to center; blink , stick(s) not at center. (2) Before you do the home lock flight, you have to fly the aircraft out of the 10m range around home point, and then flip the IOC switch to Home Lock position to fly in home lock when all the requirements are met. If yo u have already toggled the IOC switch to Home Lock position when the aircraft is still in 10m range around home point, and this is the first time you are going to fly in home lock during the current flight, then if all the requirements are met, the main co ntroller will change into home lock automatically when Multi

- rotor flies out the 10m range around home point. (1) When flying in Home Lock mode, if any of the following situations happen, then the system will quit Home Lock flying and automatically enter Cours e Lock flying. The aircraft will fly in Course Lock using the earlier forward direction. a) The aircraft fly’s within 10m range of the home point. b) You toggle the control mode switch to the ATTI. Mode. c) The GPS signal becomes bad (The GPS signal LED is blinking Red twice or three times). (2) We suggest that you should know clearly which flight lock method you are going to fly, and you know the locked forward direction or home point, before you switch on IOC mode during the flight.© 201 3 DJI Innovations.

## A4 Receiver Advanced Protectio n Function You are asked to enable this function by connecting to the Assistant Software, please set it at the section of Basic

- >R/C

- > Receiver Advanced Protection. If you choose enable it, the FailSafe will be triggered if the following situations occur d uring flight. According to the differen ce of the aircraft height, there are two situations. a) Lower than 100m, the A/E/R channel is not at the mid point

. b) Higher than 100m, the A/E/R channel is not at the mid point or the throttle stick is above the mid point

. I n the GPS Mode or ATTI. Mode, if the requirement a) or b) is satisfied, and the output data of four channels A/E/R/T h ave not changed for 20 seconds, then the aircraft will hover automatically. A fter that, if the output data of four channels A/E/R/T sti ll do not any change s and last for 10 seconds, the autopilot system will think that the data from receiver is abnormal, and then enter the FailSafe Mode. Brief introduction of how to quit the FailSafe Mode If there is any command change from the receiver, the autopilot system thinks that the receiver is regained. I n ATTI. Mode and Manual Mode, it will quit the FailSafe Mode automatically

. I n GPS Mode, please toggle the control mode switch to the ATTI. Mode and Manual Mode position to regain the control. Re fer to the FailSafe section for more
details.© 201 3 DJI Innovations. All Rights Reserved. 

## A5 Flight Limits T he flight limits function is default enabled in the NAZA

- M Flight control system, it ’ s aimed to restrict the flying height and distance of the aircraft. T he Max Height restri cts the vertical distance between the aircraft and the Home point, the Max Radius restricts the horizontal distance between the aircraft and the Home point. T he default Max Height is 2000m and Max Radius is 2000m

. U sers can write the values of the Max Heig ht and Max Radius in the Assistant software, t he range of the Max Height is 10m

- 100000m, the range of the Max Radius is the

same. S o that the aircraft will fly in the entered range, which is a cylinder space above the Home point.

(1) Heigh t Limit work s wh en the control mode is GPS or ATTI. Mode

. Radius Limit work s when the control mode is GPS and the s atellite number ≥6

. (2) If the aircraft flies out of the limits, it's still controllable except flying further away. (3) If the control mode is changed to GPS when t he aircraft is out of Max Radius, the aircraft will fl y back within the entered range

. (4) The Failsafe and the Ground Station operations are not restricted to the Flight Limits.© 201 3 DJI Innovations. All Rights Reserved.

# FAQ Abnormal LED Indication List During the Checking Procedure, if abnormal LED Indicator occurs or even the system cannot work normally, please refer to the following list and aids troubleshooting. (1) “System initializing and self

- checking LED flashes” are not correct ( Red LED appears in the l ast four green flashes). The autopilot system works abnormally. Please contact your
dealer. (2) LED blinks Yellow 4 times quickly ( )

. The system is warming up. You cannot start the motors until the 4 rapid yellow flas hes disappear. If the warm up waiting is longer than 2 minutes, please power off for 5 minutes, cold start, and then connect the assistant software, enter the "Tools"

- > IMU calibration, carry

out the Advanced calibration. (3) After the system start and self

- checking has finished, if the LED blinks Red, Green and Yellow ( ) continually. Sensor error is too big. Please connect the assistant software, enter the "Tools"

- > IMU calibration, carry out calibration. (4) At the first motors sta rt, the system will check the sensors Bias and you are asked to keep the aircraft stationary (no need of horizontal level). If you cannot start the motors and the LED blinks Green 6 times quickly ( ), it means that the sensor error is too big. Please connect the assistant software, enter the "Tools"

- > IMU calibration, carry out basic calibration. Note: after the first successful motors start, this checking will be disabled and it is no need any more to keep the ai rcraft stationary during starting motors. (5) The system blinks Red LED quickly during flying. Low

- voltage protection is triggered. Please land the aircraft ASAP. (6) The system blinks Yellow LED quickly during flying. FailSafe Mode is triggered. Pay attention tha t there is no tall buildings and trees to block your aircraft during go

- home. (7) The LED blinks Red and Yellow alternately ( ). Compass error is too big. a) There may be a ferromagnetic substance close to the Phantom. Li ft the aircraft up about 1m from the ground, if there is no Red and Yellow flashing, then it will not affect the flight. b) Otherwise, re

- calibrate the compass. c) If re

- calibration does not work, please connect to the Assistant Software, select the “Tools” and follow the tips to carry out the required operation.



## Fix the TBE (Toilet Bowl Effect) Problem When flying in GPS ATTI. Mode and the compass calibration has been done correctly, should you find the aircraft rotating (Toilet bowl effect), or drifting when hovering. P lease check the GPS module mounting orientation and then© 201 3 DJI Innovations. All Rights Reserved. re - do the compass calibration. Carry out the following procedure to re

- mount the GPS module. In the following diagram (view from the top), the aircraft can appear to be rotating in both c lockwise and

counter

- clockwise direction, please re

- mount the GPS module correspondingly.

. Please carry out several more courses, the system will fix it automatically.


## Motors Start failure caused by TX stick(s) mid point error too big If the TX stick(s) mid point error is too big, Motors Start will fail when you execute the Combination Stick Commands (CSC) and lead to the aircraft will not takeoff.. And the LED will blink Red four times per second continually to warn you. TX stick(s) mid point error too big can be caused by the following reasons: (1) There is TX stick (except the throttle stick) not at center when power on the autopilot system

. (2) The TX sticks has been trimmed, which lead s to the large deviation of mid point . For example, the SUB

- TRIM has been adjusted for Futaba transmitter. (3) The TX stick(s) travel has larger asymmetry. For the reason (1), please put all TX sticks at the mid point , and then power cycle the autopilot system to

re - record the mid point . If the problem continues, that can be caused by the reason (2) or reason (3), yo u need to adjust the output range of your TX, and then use the Assistant S oftware to redo the TX cali bration. Please carry out the following procedures. (1) Connect to the Assistant software, click Basic

- > R/C

- > Command Sticks Calibration, and push all TX sticks throughout their complete travel range to see if any stick cannot reach its largest position. (2) Adjust the largest travel of TX stick until the cursor on the Assistant software can reach both end positions, according to your TX manual. (3) Po wer cycle the autopilot system, note that power cycle is required. (4) Redo the TX calibration according to the Assistant software.© 201 3 DJI Innovations. All Rights Reserved.
