# INSPIRE 1

The Inspire 1 is a professional 

### aerial filmmaking and photography platform that is ready to fty right out of the box. Featuring an onboard camera equipped with a20mm lens and 3-axis**stab~ized** gimbal, it shoots sharp 12mp stills and stable video 

### at upto 4K.**~s** retractable landing gear pulls up out ofview, giving the camera an unobstructed 360 degree view ofthe wodd 

### below.
An advanced flight controller makes the Inspire 1 stable, safe and easy to fly indoors or out. The brand new Vision Positioning System gives itthe powerto hover in position at low altitudes even without GPS. Like all DJI flight controllers, it is also able to return home if remote controller signal is lost or ifthe low battery warning is triggered. The Inspire 1 boasts a maximum flight speed 22m/s' and a maximum flight time of 18 minutes* using one tully charged 4500mAh Jntelligent Right Battery.

# Remote Controller

The maximum transmission distance of the Inspire 1 remote controller is 2km*. The remote controller also allows you to control the landing gearor activate Return to Home with atap. Other buttons allow instant photo capture, video recording, picture review and gimbal control. A DJI Ughtbridge-based HD video downlink is built-in, letting you see what your camera sees on your mobile device in real time HD. The app also allows you to change camera settings and activate Master/Slave mode 

### so that one person can fly while other controls the gimbal independently. The master and slave controllers communicate usin(l a 5.8Ghz wireless signal, and have a communication range with each other of up to 

### 50 meters.The controller's UPo battery has a maximum run time of approximately four hours and can 

### be charged by plugging directly into the controller.

# Fly 

# Safe

• Calibrating the Compass: Make sure to calibrate the compass in eVf'l:'j new flight location. 

### The compass is very sensitive to electromagnetic interference, which can cause 

### abnormal compass data leading to poor

### flight performance or even failure. Regular calibration is required for optimum performance. Recalibrate the compass when: a) 

### The Aircraft Status Indicator is blinking red and yellow. b) Flying in a new location. • DO NOT canbrate your compass where there is a 

### chance of strong magnetic interference, such as magnettte, parking

structures, and steel reinforcements underground. • DO NOT carry ferromagnetic materials wtth you during caUbration such as keys or cellular phones. • DO NOT calibrate beside massive metal objects. • Ifthe Flight Status LED is showing solid red, then trytocalibrate again. If tt is bUnking red and yellow**a~ernately** after placing

the aircraft on the ground, the compass has detected magnetic interference. Change your location.



### • PMode: Safe to fly. In this mode, the Inspire 

### 1 has a strong GPS signal and can use the VISion Posttioning System allowing ft to hoveraccurately in position indoors and out. Ifoutdoors, this mode also meanethat a Home Point 

### has been locked so that tt can Retum to Home 

### ifthe control signal is lost. 

# B Ifyou are not in this mode, toggle the Flight Mode Swttch to P position to enable it. The Flight Mode Switch is locked in P mode by default. Refer to the User Manual on how to unlock the switch. 

### Thare arethree states in P mode. GPS Positioning

P-GPS: GPS works best when outdoors in awide open area, and your Inspire 

### 1 uses GPS to hover in place when the GPS signal is strong. P-OPTI: If GPS is not available, the aircraft can use the Vision Posttioning System to hover accurately. P-ATTI: Netther GPS or Vision Positioning System available, aircraft is using only its barometer for posttioning, so only altitude is controlled.**t~~ Vi~ion**  Positioning 'Q.:.;:.;Att1tude 2.5 m
Notethatthe Vision Posttioning System may notwork properly when 

### the Inspire 

### 1

### isflying overwater, over

### surfaces withouta

### clear pattern, or in a low 

### Ugh! environment.



### • Return to Home:



# ,. I When the GPS signal is strong, the aircraft will be able to record a Home Point and return to the Home Point when needed. The GPS location is recorded when the GPS signal icon in the DJI Pilot app is etther yellow or green. 

### The aircraft will raturn to 

### the Home Point automatically in 

### the following cases (all require a strong GPS signal). Smart RTH: Whan you press the 

### RTH button on the remote controHer or in the App. Low Battery

### RTH: The DJI Pilat 

### app notifies users to take action when the battery level 

### falls to aspecified threshold. Failsafe RTH: When

### the remote

• Environmental Considerations: 1. Do not fly in severe weather conditions. This includes high wind, snow, rain and smog. 2. Onlyfly in open areas. Tall buildings 

### and steel structures may affect 

### the accuracy of

### theonboard compass arid GPS signaL 3. Avoid from obstacles, crowds, high voltage power lines, trees or bodies ofwater. 4. Minimize electromagnetic interference by not flying in areas with high levels of electromagnetism, including mobile

phone base stations or radio transmission towers. 5. Aircraft and battery

## 4. Charging

• Only use the official DJI Inspire 1 charger for your Intelligent Flight Battery and remote controller. • To charge the Inspire 1 Intelligent Flight Battery or the remote controller, connect it to power through the port to a

suitable power source (100-240V 50/60Hz). • It is recommended totum off the battertes before charging. 

### • Usethe included chargerto charge the Intelligent Right Battery and the remote controlier battery. When fully charged, the

battery LEOs on the Intelligent FriQht Battery and remote controller

### wiR turn off.

## 5. Preparing the Remote Controller Titt the Mobile Device Holder to the desired position then 

### adjust the antennas as shown. The strength ofthe remote controller signal is 

### different when the antenna position is different.

# Strong~ Weak

# I;,

The transmission signal between the aircraft and remote controller will perform best when within the optimal transmission range. Ifthe signal is 

### weak, fly 

### the aircraft closerto you to achieve optimal signal performance. 

## <D Press 

### the button on the side ofthe Mobile

Device Holderto release the clamp. 

### Q) Place your device onto the clamp and adjust

the clamp to hold 

### it securely. @ Connect your mobile device to the remote

controller with a USB cable. Plug one end of the cable into your mobile device, and the other end into the USB port on 

### the back of the remote controller.

Ifyou have purchased an Inspire 1with dual remote controllers, the Master remote controllerwill connect to the aircraft automatically when powered
