(2) Whether a certificate of waiver, certificate of authorization, or airworthiness certification 

under section 44704 of title 49, United States Code, is required for the operation of 

unmanned aircraft systems identified under paragraph (1). 

§333(b) (1)-(2). Finally, §333 provides that "[i]f the Secretary determines under this section that certain 

unmanned aircraft systems may operate safely in the national airspace system, the Secretary shall 

establish requirements for the safe operation of such aircraft systems in the national airspace system." 

§333(c). 

The FAA has promulgated guidance for UAS users that wish to obtain a Section 333 exemption. The FAA 

has recommended that an applicant discuss the following items: 

1. The safe operation of a UAS to minimize risk to the National Airspace ("NAS"L including the 

operational characteristic for the type of UAS intended for use, operating procedures, and 

aircraft loading information; 

2. Operational procedures, including pre-flight inspections, maintenance, and repair; 

3. Radio Frequency ("RF") spectrum used for control of the UAS and associated equipment that is 

part of the UAS and whether it complies with Federal Communications Commission ("FCC") or 

other appropriate government oversight requirements; 

4. A description of the Pilot in Command ("PIC") directly responsible for the operation of the UAS, 

including the level of airman certificate held, any applicable training related to the operation, 

and any minimum hours of flight experience required by the PIC, both total flight time and the 

time with the particular UAS, as well as medical standards and certification of the PIC directly 

responsible for the operation of the UAS; 

5. The intended UAS operations, including how the operation would not adversely affect safety, or 

how they would provide a level of safety at least equivalent to that provided by the rule from 

which exemption is sought; 

6. The proposed maximum operating speed and altitude, and describe the minimum flight visibility 

and distance from clouds for their intended operations, including any potential hazards and 

safety mitigations associated with these proposed conditions; 

7. The characteristics of the area of intended operation and the associated potential hazards and 

proximity to populated areas; 

8. The proximity to airports; 

9. A description of how the application intends to operate the UAS within visual line-of-sight 

("VLOS"); 

10. Any procedures to conduct a preflight safety risk assessment to determine that the UAS is in a 

condition for safe flight and that the planned operation can be completed safely; 

11. To the extent the activity involves operations that have existing requirements, such as motion 

picture and television filming, or pipeline and powerline control, how the application intends to 

comply with such regulations; and 

12. The applicant's intent to obtain a Certificate of Waiver of Authorization ("COA") from the FAA 

Air Traffic Organization. 

Additionally, the FAA Administrator has general authority to grant exemptions from its safety 

regulations and minimum standards when the Administrator decides a requested exemption is in the 

public interest. See 49 U.S.C. § 44701(f) (permitting exemptions from§§ 44701(aL (b) and §§ 44702-

44716, et seq.). A party requesting an exemption must explain the reasons why the exemption: (1) 

would benefit the public as a whole, and (2) would not adversely affect safety (or how it would provide a

' ' 

level of safety at least equal to the existing rules). See 14 C.F.R. § 11.81 (petitions for exemption). 

2. Under the Sun Meets and Exceeds the Legal and Regulatory Requirements 

As will be shown herein, Under the Sun meets and exceeds the stated §333 requirements as well as the 

guidance promulgated by the FAA. The proposed operations in this petition for exemption qualify for 

expedited approval under §333 of the FMRA. Each of the statutory criteria and other relevant factors 

are satisfied. 

The proposed operations permit the use of small and relatively inexpensive UAS under controlled 

conditions in airspace that is: (1) limited; (2) predetermined; (3) controlled as to access; and that (4) 

provides an increased level of safety beyond that existing when fixed or rotor wing aircraft are used to 

accomplish the same purpose. 

Under the Sun's sUAS are rotorcraft, weighing SO or fewer pounds, including payload. They operate, 

under normal conditions, at low speed and have the capability to hover and move in the vertical and 

horizontal plane. Under the Sun's UASs will operate in line of sight, or pursuant to the prevailing FAA 

regulations and guidance, and will only operate within those areas described in the enclosed Flight 

Operations Manual. 

Given the small size of the sUASs involved and the restricted environment within which they will 

operate, the comprehensive safety and operational parameters used by Under the Sun, and Under the 

Sun's commitment to compliance with the FAA's regulations now and into the future, this petition 

exemption falls within the equivalent level of safety that Congress desired the FAA to permit commercial 

UAS operations by exemption pending completion of formal rulemaking. Also, due to the size of the 

sUASs and the restricted area in which the sUASs will operate, approval of the application presents no 

national security issue. 

Considering the clear direction in §333 of the Reform Act, the authority contained in the Federal 

Aviation Act, as amended, the equivalent level of safety surrounding the proposed operations, and the 

significant public benefit, the grant of the requested exemptions is also in the public interest. 

Accordingly, Under the Sun respectfully requests the FAA grant the requested exemption without delay.

PROPOSED OPERATIONS 

The enclosed Manuals describe, in detail, the policies and procedures for Under the Sun's proposed 

sUAS operations. To assist the FAA in its safety assessment of Under the Sun's proposed sUAS 

operations, below is a summary of operational limitations and conditions, which will ensure an 

equivalent or higher level of safety to operations conducted under current regulatory guidelines: 

1. The sUAS will weigh less than 50 pounds. 

2. Flights will be operated within line of sight of the Operator. 

3. Maximum total flight time for each operational flight will be limited to the amount of 

time the sUAS can be flown and still maintain a reserve battery power of no less than 

25%. 

4. Flights will be operated at an altitude of no more than 500 feet Above Ground Level 

("AGL"). 

5. Flights will be operated at a safe lateral and vertical distance from and above any 

inhabited structures, buildings, vehicles, vessels, or people not associated with the 

operation or who have not signed a waiver in advance of the operation. 

6. The sUAS Pilot with Pilot in Command responsibilities for the flight will be the 

designated Operator ("Operator"). 

7. The sUAS will operate only within a confined area as described in the Flight Operations 

Manual. 

8. A briefing will be conducted in regard to the planned sUAS operations prior to each 

day's missions. It will be mandatory that all personnel who will be performing duties 

within the boundaries of the safety perimeter be present for this briefing. 

9. The Operator will have been trained in operations of sUAS generally and received up-todate information on the particular sUAS to be operated as required in the Flight 

Operation Manual. 

10. Written and/or oral permission from the relevant property holders will be obtained. 

11. All required permissions and permits will be obtained from territorial, state, county or 

city jurisdictions, including local law enforcement, fire or other appropriate 

governmental agencies. 

12. If the sUAS loses transmission signal, the sUAS will have the capability to return to a predetermined location and land. 

13. Contingency plans will be in place to safely terminate flight if there is a loss of 

transmitter communications or a loss of GPS signal. 

14. The sUAS will have the capability to abort a flight in case of unpredicted obstacles or 

emergencies.

The Federal Aviation Act expressly grants the FAA the authority to issue exemptions. This statutory 

authority, by its terms, includes exempting civil aircraft, as the term is defined under§ 40101 of the Act, 

including sUASs, from its safety regulations and minimum standards when the Administrator decides a 

requested exemption is in the public interest. 

Petitioner seeks an exemption from several interrelated provisions of 14 C.F.R. Parts 21, 45 and 91 for 

purposes of conducting aerial photography and videography, and other aerial data collection services. 

Listed below are (1) the specific sections of 14 C.F.R. for which exemption is sought, and (2) the 

operating procedures and safeguards that Petitioner has established which will ensure a level of safety 

better than or equal to the rules from which exemption is sought. 

A. 14 C.F.R. Part 21, Subpart H- Airworthiness Certificates and 14 C.F.R. § 91.203(a) and (b) 

Petitioner seeks an exemption from 14 C.F.R. Part 21, Subpart H, which establishes the procedural 

requirements for the issuance of airworthiness and registration certificates as required by 14 C.F.R. 

Given the size and limited operating area associated with the sUAS to be utilized by the Petitioner, an 

exemption from Part 21, Subpart H, meets the requirements of an equivalent level of safety under Part 

11 and §333 of the FMRA. 

The Federal Aviation Act and §333 of the FMRA both authorize the FAA to exempt aircraft from the 

requirement for an airworthiness certificate, upon consideration of the size, weight, speed, operational 

capability, and proximity to airports and populated areas of the particular UAS. In all cases, an analysis 

of these criteria demonstrates that the sUAS operated without an airworthiness or registration 

certificate, in the restricted environment and under the conditions proposed, will be at least as safe as, 

or safer than, a conventional rotorcraft operating with an airworthiness certificate without restrictions 

and conditions of the proposed sUAS operations. 

Equivalent Level of Safety 

The sUAS to be operated hereunder, DJI INSPIRE 1 multi-rotor rotorcraft, weighs less than 55 pounds 

with payload, carries neither a pilot nor passenger, carries no explosive materials or flammable liquid 

fuels, and operates exclusively within a secured and sterile area. Unlike other civil aircraft, the proposed 

operations will be controlled and monitored by the Operator pursuant to the Flight Operations Manual's 

requirements, as attached. 

These safety enhancements, which already apply to civil aircraft operated in connection with existing 

aerial videography operations, provide a greater degree of safety to Under the Sun's employees, 

members of the public, and property owners than conventional operations conducted with 

airworthiness certificates issued under 14 C.F.R. Part 21, Subpart H. Lastly, application of these same 

criteria demonstrates that there is no credible threat to national security posed by the sUAS, due to its 

size, speed of operation, lack of explosive materials or flammable liquid fuels, and inability to carry a 

substantial external load. 

B. 14 C.F.R. Part 27 Airworthiness Standards: Normal Category Rotorcraft 

14 C.F.R. Part 27 sets forth the procedural requirements for airworthiness certification of normal 

category rotorcraft. To the extent Under the Sun would otherwise require certification under Part 27, 

U.S. Department of Transportation ··-··--·-··-·---- --- -----···-·-----·-·-··-··-·-·--· Juiyl,2015 

Page 5 
Under the Sun seeks an exemption from Part 27's airworthiness standards for the same reasons 

Identified in the exemption request from 14 C.F.R. Part 21, Subpart H. 

C. 14 CFR § 61.113: Private Pilot Privileges And limitations 

Petitioner seeks an additional exemption from 14 CFR § 61.113, which restricts private pilot certificate 

holders from flying aircraft for compensation or hire, and which would also have the effect of requiring a 

second-class medical certificate. This provision limits private pilots to non-commercial operations. 

Equivalent Level of Safety 

Because the sUASs will not carry a pilot or passengers, the proposed operations can achieve the 

equivalent level of safety of current operations by requiring a ground crew member to have a private 

pilot's license rather than a commercials pilot's license to operation this sUAS. Unlike a conventional 

aircraft that carries the pilot and passengers, the sUAS is remotely controlled with no persons on board. 

The area of operation is controlled and restricted, and all flights are planned and coordinated in 

advance. The risks associated with the operation of the sUASs are so diminished from the level of risk 

associated with commercial operations contemplated by part 61 when drafted, that allowing operations 

as requested with a private pilot in the ground crew exceeds the present level of safety achieved by 14 

C.F.R. Sec. 61.113(a) and (b). 

In addition, in Grant of Exemption No. 11062 to Astraeus Aerial (f(Astraeus"), the FAA determined that 

an Operator with a private pilot certificate operating the Astraeus UAS would not adversely affect 

operations in the NAS or present a hazard to persons or property on the ground. Additionally, as 

previously determined by the Secretary of Transportation, the requirement to have an airman certificate 

ameliorates security concerns over civil UAS operations conducted in accordance with §333. 

The aerial data collection conducted by Under the Sun will be conducted in areas where access to the 

public is limited and controlled. As such, the operations will have no substantial impact on any third 

persons not involved in the production. Under the Sun also has a policy to conduct its operations, when 

possible, during times when third persons not involved in the production are expected to be limited and 

to the extent possible, to provide notice to affected third persons when production and operations will 

occur. 

Because Under the Sun will operate in controlled areas and under controlled parameters, the sUAS will 

be flown based on visual line-of-sight at altitudes below 500' AGL. Accordingly, Under the Sun request 

that this exemption be granted. 

D. 14 C.F.R. §§ 91.9(c), 45.23(b) and 45.27(a): Aircraft Marking and Identification 

Requirements 

Petitioner seeks an exemption from the aircraft marking and identification requirements contained in 14 

C.F.R. §§ 91.9(c), 45.23(b) and 45.27(a). 14 C.F.R. § 91.9(c), Civil Aircraft Flight Manual, Marking and 

Placard requirements, provides that u[n]o person may operate a U.S.-registered civil aircraft unless that 

aircraft is identified in accordance with Part 45 ofthis chapter." 

Equivalent Level of Safety 

The equivalent level of safety for exemptions to the aircraft marking and identification requirements of 

§§ 91.9(c), 45.23(b) and 45.27(a) will be provided by having the sUAS marked on its fuselage as required 

u.s. 
by§ 45.29(f). In addition, Under the Sun is aware of Exemption No. 11333, which required the sUAS's 

markings to be "as large as practicable." The FAA has previously issued the following related 

exemptions to the aircraft marking requirements of § 45.23(b): Exemption Nos. 10700, 10167 and 

10167A. 

E. 14 C.F.R. § 91.9(b)(2}: Civil Aircraft Flight Manual in the Aircraft 

Under the Sun seeks an exemption from the flight manual requirements of 14 C.F.R. § 91.9(b)(2), which 

states: 

(b) No person may operate a U.S.-registered civil aircraft-

(2) For which an Airplane or Rotorcraft Flight Manual is not required by § 21.5 of this chapter, 

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. 

Given the physical dimensions of the sUAS, configuration and load capacity, the sUASs have no ability to 

carry such a manual on the aircraft, not only because there is no pilot on board, but because there is 

simply no room or capacity to carry such an item on the aircraft. 

Equivalent Level of Safety 

The safety related purpose of this manual requirement can be equally satisfied by maintaining the sUAS 

flight manual at the ground control point where the Operator will have immediate access to it. 

Accordingly, Under the Sun requests an exemption from 91.9(b)(2)'s flight manual requirements, on the 

condition that the sUAS flight manual be available at the control point during each operation. 

The FAA has issued the following exemptions to this regulation: Exemption Nos. 8607, 8737, 8738, 9299, 

9299A, 9565, 9565B, 10167, 10167A, 10602, 32827, 10700, and 11333 ("documents required under 14 

CFR §§ 91.9 and 91.203 must be available to the PIC at the Ground Control Station of the UAS any time 

the aircraft is operating.") 

F. 14 C.F.R. § 91.7(a): Civil Aircraft Airworthiness 

Under the Sun seeks an exemption from 14 C.F.R. § 91.7(a), which requires that a civil aircraft be in 

airworthy condition to be operated. Inasmuch there will be no airworthiness certificate issued for the 

sUAS, should this exemption be granted, no FAA regulatory standard will exist for determining 

airworthiness. 

Equivalent Level of Safety 

The DJI INSPIRE 1 has a stellar safety record, demonstrating that the sUAS is airworthy. Further, given 

the size of the sUAS and the requirements contained in the Flight Operation Manual for maintenance 

and pre-flight safety check lists, an equivalent level of safety will be provided. 

The FAA has issued the following exemptions to this regulation: Exemption Nos. 8607, 8737, 8738, 9299, 

9299A,9565,9565B, 10167, 10167A, 10602,32827,10700,and 11333. 

G. 14 C.F.R. § 91.103: Preflight Action 

U.S. Deportment of Tronsportation ----------- ___ _ .Ju!y , 201.5 

Page 7 
Under the Sun seeks an exemption from 14 C.F.R. § 91.103, which requires a PIC to become familiar with 

specific information before each flight, including information contained in the FAA-approved flight 

manual on board the aircraft. While the Operator will be familiar with all information necessary to safely 

conduct the flight, an exemption is requested to the extent that an FAA-approved flight manual is 

required on board the aircraft. 

Equivalent Level of Safety 

An equivalent level of safety will be provided by following the Operator's Handbook. The Operator will 

take all required preflight actions- including reviewing weather, flight battery requirements, landing and 

takeoff distance, and aircraft performance data - before initiation of flight. The Operator's Handbook 

will be kept at the ground station with the operator at all times. Further, Under the Sun will utilize all 

safety and manufacturer's manuals to ensure it adheres to the highest standards for safety within the 

industry. 

H. 14 C.F.R. § 91.109(a): Flight Instruction 

Under the Sun seeks an exemption from 14 C.F.R. § 91.109(a), which provides that "[n]o 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." sUASs and remotely piloted aircraft, by their design, do not 

have functional dual controls. Instead, flight control is accomplished through the use of a box that 

communicates with the aircraft via radio communications. 

Equivalent Level of Safety 

Given the size and speed of the sUAS, an equivalent level of safe training can still be performed without 

dual controls because no pilot or passengers are aboard the sUAS, and all persons will be a safe distance 

away in the event that the sUAS experiences any difficulties during flight instruction. Flight control is 

accomplished through the use of a control box that communicates with the aircraft via radio 

communications. The FAA has approved exemptions for flight training without fully functional dual 

controls for a number of aircraft and for flight instruction in experimental aircraft. See, Exemption Nos. 

5778K & 9862A. The equivalent level of safety is provided by the fact that neither a pilot nor passengers 

will be carried in the aircraft and by the size and speed of the aircraft. Enhancing this safety is the 

technology inherent in the remote controls utilizing digital communications that are paired to the sUAS, 

making it nearly impossible to unintentionally or intentionally have the control communications 

interrupted. 

The FAA has approved exemptions for flight training without fully functional dual controls for a number 

of aircraft and for flight instruction in experimental aircraft. Exemptions include: Nos. 5778K and 9862A. 

I. 14 C.F.R. § 91.119: Minimum Safe Altitudes 

Petitioner requests an exemption from the minimum safe altitude requirements of 14 C.F.R. § 91.119. 

Section 91.119 prescribes the minimum safe altitudes under which aircraft may not operate, including 

500 feet above the surface and away from any person, vessel, vehicle, or structure in non-congested 

areas. See 14 C.F.R. § 91.119(c). Section 91.119(d) allows for a helicopter to operate at less than those 

minimum altitudes when it can be operated "without hazard to persons or property on the surface," 

provided that "each person operating the helicopter complies with any routes or altitudes specifically 

prescribed for helicopters by the FAA." 
To provide the intended aerial video operations, the sUAS is normally operated below 500 feet AGL. 

Additionally, due the nature of the proposed operations, the sUAS will maintain a safe lateral and 

vertical distance from inhabited structures, buildings, vehicles, and vessels, and from people not 

associated with the operation. 

Equivalent Level of Safety 

Compared to flight operations with rotorcraft weighing far more than the maximum 55 pounds 

proposed herein, and given the lack of flammable fuel, any risk associated with these operations is far 

less than those that presently exist with conventional aircraft. An equivalent level of safety will be 

achieved given the size, weight, and speed of the UAS, as well as the location where it is operated. As 

set forth in the Flight Operation Manual, the sUAS will be operated in a confined area, where buildings 

and people will not be exposed to operations without their pre-obtained consent. Because of the 

advance notice to the property owners and participants, all affected individuals will be well aware of the 

planned flight operations as set forth in the Flight Operation Manual. 

Furthermore, by operating at such lower altitudes, the sUAS will not interfere with other aircraft that 

are subject to the minimum safe altitude regulations. Finally, the successful safety record of the DJI 

INSPIRE 1 demonstrates that the sUAS can be safely used at these lower altitudes and closer operating 

environments. 

J. 14 C.F.R. § 91.121: Altimeter Settings 

This petition seeks an exemption from 14 C.F.R. § 91.121, which requires a person operating an aircraft 

to maintain cruising altitude or flight level by reference to an altimeter that is set to the elevation of the 

departure airport or barometric pressure. An exemption is required because the sUAS does not have a 

barometric altimeter, but rather a GPS altitude read out. 

Equivalent Level of Safety 

An equivalent level of safety will be achieved by following the procedures set forth in the Flight 

Operation Manual. As prescribed in the Flight Operation Manual, the operator will confirm the altitude 

of the launch site shown on the GPS altitude indicator before flight. Moreover, the Operator will use the 

GPS altitude indicator to constantly monitor the sUAS's height, thus ensuring operation at safe altitudes. 

K. 14 C.F.R. § 91.151(a): Fuel Requirements for Flight in VFR Conditions 

Under the Sun requests an exemption from 14 C.F.R. § 91.151(a)'s fuel requirements for flight in VFR 

conditions. Section 91.151 states: 

(a) No 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-

(1) During the day, to fly after that for at least 30 minutes; or 

(2) At night, to fly after that for at least 45 minutes. 

Here, the battery powering the DJI INSPIRE 1 provides approximately 15 minutes of powered flight. To 

meet the 30 minutes reserve requirement in 14 C.F.R. § 91.151, sUAS flights could not be conducted. 

U.S. Department of Tronsportation -· ------ July 1, 2015 

Page 9 
. ' 

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

within a predetermined area, a safety margin based on a reserve amount of battery life is needed. 

Petitioner will not be conducting any sUAS flights at night. 

Equivalent Level of Safety 

An equivalent level of safety will be achieved because the operations will be conducted on-site without 

significant transit time by the sUAS. All flights will be planned to be terminated with no less than 25% 

reserve battery power still available. This restriction would be more than adequate to return the sUAS 

safely to the ground and its planned landing zone from anywhere in its limited operating area even in 

the event of an unexpected occurrence. Operation of the sUAS with less than 30 minutes of reserve fuel 

does not include the type of risks that Section 91.151(a) was intended to alleviate given the size and 

speed of the small UAS, and the proximity of the flight operation to the landing zone. 

This request for exemption falls within the scope of prior exemptions, including Exemption Nos. 10673, 

2689F, 5745, 10673, 10808 and 11333. 

L. 14 C.F.R. § 91.203(a) and (b): Carrying Civil Aircraft Certification and Registration 

Under the Sun seeks an exemption from civil aircraft certification and registration requirements of 14 

C.F.R. § 91.203(a) and (b). The regulation states in pertinent part: 

(a) Except as provided in§ 91.715, no person may operate a civil aircraft unless it has within it 

the following: 

{1) An appropriate and current airworthiness certificate ... 

(b) No person may operate a civil aircraft unless the airworthiness certificate required by 

paragraph (a) of this section or a special flight authorization issued under § 91.715 is displayed 

at the cabin or cockpit entrance so that it is legible to passengers or crew. 

An exemption to this regulation is necessary because: {1) the sUAS's configuration, load capacity and 

size does not allow it to carry certification and registration documents; (2) the sUAS does not have a 

cabin or cockpit entrance at which documents could be displayed; and (3) there are no passengers or 

crew for whom the certificates need to be displayed. 

Equivalent Level of Safety 

To the extent these regulations are applicable to the proposed sUAS operations, an equivalent level of 

safety will be achieved by keeping these documents at the ground control point where the Operator will 

have immediate access to them. 

The FAA has issued numerous exemptions to this regulation, including: Exemption Nos. 9565, 9665, 

9789, 9789A, 9797, 9797A, 9816A, and 10700. 

M. 14 C.F.R. § 91.405(a), 91.407(a)(1), 91.409(a)(1), 91.409(a)(2); 91.417(a) and (b): 

Maintenance Inspections 

Under the Sun also seeks an exemption from the maintenance inspection requirements contained in 14 

C.F.R. § 91.405(a), 91.407(a)(1), 91.409(a)(1), 91.409(a)(2), 91.417(a) and (b). These regulations specify 

maintenance and inspection standards in reference to 14 C.F.R. Part 43. See, e.g., 14 C.F.R. § 91.405(a) 

U.S. Department of Transportation July , 2015 

Page i 0 
(stating that each owner or operator of an aircraft "[s]hall have the aircraft inspected as prescribed in 

subpart E of this part and shall between required ions ... have discrepancies repaired as prescribed in 

part 43 of this chapter"). An exemption to these regulations is needed because Part 43 and these 

sections only apply to aircraft with an airworthiness certificate, which the sUAS will not have. 

Equivalent Level of Safety 

An equivalent level of safety will be achieved because maintenance and inspections will be performed in 

accordance with the Operator's Handbook as referenced in the Flight Operation Manual. As provided in 

the Flight Operation Manual, 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. The operator is 

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

condition to provide the equivalent level of safety. 

If mechanical issues arise, the sUAS's size and carrying capacity, and the fact that flight operations will 

only take place in restricted areas for limited periods of time during daylight hours, creates less risk than 

that associated with conventional rotorcraft performing the same operation. 

PUBLIC INTEREST 

Granting Under the Sun's exemption furthers the public interest on numerous levels. National policy set 

by Congress favors early integration of UAS into the national airspace in controlled, safe working 

environments such as those propose in this petition. In addition, maintaining industrial safety has been a 

priority of state and local governments for decades. 

Under the Sun also believes that the use of sUASs for aerial photography and videography serves a 

valuable public interest and addresses a common public concern: safety. The use of sUAS's in a 

controlled and safe manner, as described herein. In addition, in the event of an unforeseen incident, a 

sUAS causes far less disruption than traditional aircraft. 

In addition, conducting aerial videography with the sUAS, instead of manned aircraft, meets another 

common public concern in the noise and pollution caused by traditional aircraft. The use of a sUAS 

significantly reduces the levels of air and noise pollution generated during traditional aerial video 

production flight operations. By using battery power and electric motors, the sUAS produces no air 

pollution, and is the most viable environmentally conscious alternative to piston or turbine powered 

rotorcraft. The sUAS, while reducing the carbon footprint of aerial video productions, also eliminates 

noise pollution as its battery powered electric motors are barely audible during the take-off phase, and 

cannot be heard when operating more than 100 feet above ground level. 

By using the sUAS to perform aerial videography, the substantial risk to life and property in the air and 

on the ground, which is usually associated with traditional manned aircraft flight operations, will be 

substantially reduced or completely eliminated. Aside from the lack of aircrew members located 

onboard the aircraft, the minimal size and weight of a sUAS creates less physical potential for collateral 

damage to life and property on the ground, and in the air, compared to the manned aircraft that 

typically conduct aerial videography. Relatedly, the sUAS contains no reactive or combustible materials 

on board and thus the potential for fire or explosions is greatly diminished. 

In addition, granting the exception will help advance the knowledge base for conducting commercial 

UAS operations. This additional data will help the FAA set future rules regarding UAS flight operations, 

U.S. Deparlmenl of Tronsportation _______________ _ .July 1, 2015 -----·--·-··---····--···-·-----···- Page 11 
maintenance, and crew qualifications. The public also has an interest in reducing the hazards and 

emissions associated with alternate use of helicopters to conduct similar aerial videography operations. 

The UAS in question is very light weight and does not carry any flammable fuel, further reducing the risk 

from any potential accident. 

All of the proposed flights and videography will be only conducted after obtaining any individual subject 

matter's permission. All flights will occur over public right-of-way or private property with the property 

owner's prior consent and knowledge. The proposed operations will not impact privacy concerns 

beyond those already implicated by manned aircraft aerial videography operations. 

LJ::EDE~~~-R-~GIS_TR_Y_S_U_M_M_A_RY ______ _ 

Pursuant to 14 C.F.R. Part 11, the following summary is provided for publication in the Federal Register, 

should it be determined that publication is needed: 

Under the Sun seeks an exemption from the following rules: 

14 CFR Part 21, Subpart H; 14 CFR Part 27; 14 CFR 45.23(b); 45.27 (a); 14 C.F.R. 61.113; 14 CFR 

91.7(a); 14 CFR 91.9(b)(2); 14 CFR 91.9(c); 14 CFR 91.103; 14 CFR 91.109(a); 14 CFR 91.119; 14 

CFR 91.121; 14 CFR 91.151(a); 14 CFR 91.203 (a) & (b); 14 CFR 91.405(a); 14 CFR 91.407(a)(1); 14 

CFR 91.409(a)(1)and (2); 14 CFR 91.417 (a) & (b). 

Approval of these exemptions allowing commercial operations of small and lightweight unmanned 

aircraft ("sUAS") to conduct aerial videography and cinematography operations will enhance safety by 

reducing risk to Under the Sun Imaging, the general public and property owners. 

The DJI INSPIRE 1 sUAS, weighing less than 55 pounds, with payload, and powered by batteries, 

eliminates virtually all of that risk given the reduced mass and lack of combustible fuel carried on board. 

The sUAS is transported to the designated survey area set up. It is not flown from an external location to 

the work-site. The sUAS will carry no passengers or crew and, therefore, will not expose them to the 

risks associated with manned aircraft flights. 

The operation of this small UAS will provide an equivalent level of safety, supporting the grant of the 

exemptions requested herein, including exempting the applicant from the requirements of Part 21 and 

allowing commercial operations. These lightweight sUASs operate at slow speeds, close to the ground, 

and in a controlled environment. As a result, they are far safer than conventional aerial photography, 

videography, and data collection operations are conducted with fixed wing aircraft or helicopters. 

! CONCLUSION 

Satisfaction of the criteria provided in Section 333 of the Reform Act of 2012-size, weight, speed, 

operating capabilities, proximity to airports and populated areas and operation within visual line of sight 

and national security-provides more than adequate justification for the grant of the requested 

exemptions to permit Under the Sun to operate sUASs in support of its aerial photography, videography, 

and aerial data collection operations in accordance with the Flight Operation and Operator's Handbook 

appended hereto. 

U.S. Department of Transportation july I, 2015 

Page 12 
Granting the requested exemption will benefit the public interest as a whole in many ways, including (1) 

significantly improving safety and reducing risk by alleviating human exposure to danger, (2) improving 

aerial videography operations and decreasing operating costs, and (3) providing an environmentally 

conscientious way of producing aerial videography and cinematography operations.

Flight Controller 

The Inspire 1 's flight controller is based on OJI flight controller with several enhancements such as new 

flight mode and new safe mode. Three safe modes are available: Failsafe, Return Home and Dynamic 

Home Point. These features ensure the safe return of your aircraft if the control signal is lost. A flight 

recorder stores crucial flight data for each flight. 

Flight Mode 

Three flight modes are available. The details of each flight mode are found in the section below: 

P mode (Positioning) : P mode works best when GPS signal is strong. There are three different states of P 

mode, which will be automatically selected by the Inspire 1 depending on GPS signal strength and Vision 

Positioning sensors: 

P-GPS: GPS and Vision Positioning both are available, and the aircraft is using GPS for positioning. 

P-OPTI: Vision Positioning is available but the GPS signal is not. Aircraft is using only Vision 

Positioning for hovering 

P-A Til: Neither GPS or Vision Positioning available, aircraft is using only its barometer for positioning, 

so only altitude is controlled. 

A mode (Attitude): The GPS and Vision Positioning System is not used for holding position. The aircraft 

only uses its barometer to maintain altitude. If it is still receiving a GPS signal, the aircraft can automatically 

return home if the Remote Controller signal is lost and if the Home Point has been recorded successfully. 

F mode (Function): Intelligent Orientation Control (IOC) is activated in this mode. For more information 

about IOC, refer to the IOC in Appendix. 

:\): Use the Flight Controller mode switch to change the flight mode of the aircraft, refer to the "Flight 

Mode Switch" on P27 for more information. 

Flight Status Indicator 

The INSPIRE 1 comes with the Front LED, Rear LED and Aircraft Status Indicator. The positions of these 

LEOs are shown in the figure below:

that will trigger RTH procedure; they are Smart RTH, Low Battery RTH and Failsafe RTH. 

GPS 

Home Point ~Ill 

Smart RTH 

Description 

The Home Point is the location at which your aircraft takes off when the 

GPS signal is strong. You can view the GPS signal strength through 

the GPS icon ( ~111 ). If you are using the Dynamic Home Point 

setting, the Home Point will be updated to your current position as you 

move around and when the Aircraft Status Indicator blinks green. 

Using the RTH button on the remote controller (refer to "RTH button" on P28 for more information) or the 

RTH button in the DJI Pilot app when GPS is available to enables smart RTH. The aircraft return to the 

latest recorded Home Point, you may control the aircraft's orientation to avoid collision during the Smart 

RTH. Press the Smart RTH button once to start the process, press the Smart RTH button again to exit 

Smart RTH and regain the control. 
INSPIRE 1 User Manual 

Low Battery RTH 

The low battery level failsafe is triggered when the DJI Intelligent Flight Battery is depleted to a point that 

may affect the safe return of the aircraft. Users are advised to return home or land the aircraft immediately 

when these warnings are shown. DJI Pilot app will advise user to return the aircraft to the Home Point 

when low battery warning is triggered. Aircraft will automatically return to the Home Point if no action is 

taken after 10 seconds countdown. User can cancel the RTH by pressing once on the RTH button. The 

thresholds for these warnings are automatically determined based on the current aircraft altitude and its 

distance from the Home Point. 

Aircraft will land automatically if the current battery level can only support the aircraft to land to the ground 

from the current altitude. User can use the remote controller to control the aircraft's orientation during the 

landing process.

Vision Positioning System 

DJI Vision Positioning is a positioning system that uses ultrasonic and image data to help the aircraft 

identify its current position. With the help of Vision Positioning, your Inspire 1 can hover in place more 

precisely and fly indoors or in other environments where there is no GPS signal available. The main 

components of DJI Vision Positioning are located on the bottom of your Inspire 1, including [1 ]two sonar 

sensors and[2]one monocular camera. 

Using Vision Positioning 

Vision Positioning is activated automatically when the Inspire 1 is powered on. No manual action is 

required. Vision Positioning is typically used in the indoor environment where no GPS is available. By 

using the sensors on the Vision Positioning system, Inspire 1 can perform precision hovering even when 

no GPS is available.

3. Power on the Inspire 1. The aircraft status indicator will flash twice in green light, 

which indicates the Vision Positioning system is ready. Gently push the throttle up 

to lift off, and the Inspire 1 will hover in place. 

& The performance of your Inspire 1 's Vision Positioning System is subject to the surface you are 

flying over. The ultrasonic waves may not be able to accurately measure the distance over sound 

absorbing materials, and the camera may not function correctly in suboptimal environments. The 

aircraft will switch from "P" mode to "A" mode automatically if both GPS and Vision Positioning 

System are not available. So operate the aircraft cautiously when in any of the following situations: 

• Flying over monochrome surfaces (e.g. pure black, pure white, pure red, pure green). 

• Flying over a highly reflective surfaces. 

• Flying at high speeds( over Sm/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 an area where the lighting changes frequently or drastically. 

• Flying over extremely dark (lux < 1 0) or bright (lux > 1 0,000) surfaces. 

• Flying over surfaces that can absorb sound waves (e.g. thick carpet). 

• Flying over surfaces without clear patterns or texture. 

• Flying over surfaces with identical repeating patterns or textures (e.g. tiles with same design) . 

• Flying over inclined surfaces that will deflect sound waves away from the aircraft . 

• In the event of loss of remote controller's signal, the aircraft will hover for 8 seconds and then 

auto-land if it is in "P" mode. 

:\): • Keep the sensors clean at all times. Dirt or other debris may adversely affect the effectiveness 

of the sensors. 

• The effective hovering altitudes of the aircraft is from 0 to 2.5 meters. 

• Vision Positioning system may not function properly when the aircraft is flying over water. 

• Vision Positioning system may not be able to recognize pattern on the ground in low light 

conditions (less than 1 OOiux). 

• Do not use other ultrasonic devices with frequency of 40 KHz when Vision Positioning system is 

in operation. 

• Vision Positioning system may not be able to stabilize the aircraft when flying close to the 

ground (below 0.5 meters) in fast speed. 

0 Keep the animals away from the aircraft when Vision Positioning system is activated. The sonar 

sensor emits high frequency sound that is only audible to some animals. 

Flight Recorder 

Flight data is automatically stored in the internal storage device of the aircraft. User can gain access to 

these data through the DJI Pilot app. This includes flight duration, orientation, distance, aircraft status 

information, speed, and other parameters. 

Attaching and Detaching the Propellers

mode, which will be automatically selected by the Inspire 1 depending on GPS signal strength and Vision 

Positioning sensors: 

P-GPS: GPS and Vision Positioning both are available, and the aircraft is using GPS for positioning. 

P-OPTI: Vision Positioning is available but the GPS signal is not. Aircraft is using only Vision 

Positioning for hovering 

P-ATTI: Neither GPS or Vision Positioning available, aircraft is using only its barometer for positioning, 

so only altitude is controlled. 

A mode (Attitude): The GPS and Vision Positioning System is not used for holding position. The aircraft 

only uses its barometer to maintain altitude. If it is still receiving a GPS signal, the aircraft can automatically 

return home if the Remote Controller signal is lost and if the Home Point has been recorded successfully. 

F mode (Function): Intelligent Orientation Control (IOC) is activated in this mode. For more information

This chapter describes the flight safety 

and flight restrictions. 

44 
Flight 

Once pre-flight preparation is complete, it is recommended to use the flight simulator to learn how to fly 

safely. Ensure that all flights are carried out in a suitable location. 

Flight Environment Requirements 

1. Do not use the aircraft in severe weather conditions. These include wind speed exceeding 1 Om/s , 

snow, rain and smog. 

2. Only fly in open areas. Tall buildings and steel structures may affect the accuracy of the on-board 

compass and GPS signal. 

3. Avoid from obstacles, crowds, high voltage power lines, trees or bodies of water. 

4. Minimize electromagnetic interference by not flying in area with high levels of electromagnetism, 

including mobile phone base stations or radio transmission towers. 

5. Aircraft and battery performance is subject to environment factor such as air density and temperature. 

Be very careful when flying 14700 feet (4500 meters) or more above sea level as battery and aircraft 

performance may be reduced. 

6. The Inspire 1 cannot operate within the polar areas in "P" mode. 

Flight Limits and Flight Restriction Area 

Flight limits on height and distance can be set. The details of these flight limits are described in the following 

section. 

All unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) operators should abide by all regulations from such organizations as 

the ICAO (International Civil Aviation Organization), FAA and their own national airspace regulations. For 

safety reasons, the flight limits function is enabled by default to help users use this product safely and 

legally. The flight limits function includes height limits, distance limits and No Fly Zones. 

When operating in P Mode, height, distance limits and No Fly Zones work together to manage flight. In A 

mode only height limits work and flights cannot go higher than 120 meters. 

Max Height & Radius Limits 

Max Height & Radius limit flying height and distance, and the user may change these settings in the 

DJI Pilot App. Once complete, your Inspire 1 will fly in a restricted cylinder that is determined by these 

settings. The tables below show the details of these limits.

Flight Restriction of Restricted Areas 

Restricted areas include airports worldwide. All restricted areas are listed on the DJI official website at 

http://www.dji.com/fly-safe/category-mc. Restricted areas are divided into category A and category B. 

Category A areas cover major international airport such as LAX and Heathrow, while category B areas 

includes smaller airports. 

Category A Safety Zone 

(1) The category A "safety zone" is comprised of a small "no-fly zone" and a range of "restrictedaltitude zones". Flight is prevented in the "no-fly zone" but can continue with height restrictions in the 

restricted-altitude zone. 

(2) 1.5 rniles (2.4 km) around a designated safety zone is a no-fly zone, inside which takeoff is prevented. 

(3) 1 .5 miles (2.4 km) to 5 miles (8 km) around restricted areas are altitude restricted, with maximum 

altitude going from 35 feet (1 0.5 m) at 1.5 rniles (2.4 km) to 400 feet (120m) at 5 miles (8 km). 

(4) A "warning zone" has been set around the safety zone. When you fly within 320 feet (100m) of the 

safety zone, a warning message will appear on the DJI Pilot App.

Maintenance Manual 

['{j]J 2015.2 

To ensure that your aircraft continues to offer optimal performance and to ensure flight safety, 

it is recommended that comprehensive maintenance be performed after every 200 flights or 50 

flight hours. This manual is intend to help users maintain their aircraft and maximize its continued 

reliability. 

I. Checking the Battery 

1. Check the battery for damage and deformities. If 

there are any signs of damage to the battery, stop 

using it and discharge the battery to 10% or below 

for disposal. Do not disassemble the battery for any 

reason. 

2. Check the battery pins and rub them clean with an 

eraser if any residue is observed. This will help to 

ensure a more reliable connection. 

3. Check the metal battery power connectors for 

damage. If the connectors appear burnt, try to clear 

them. This can be done by inserting a piece of 

sandpaper (1 mm thick) into the connectors to polish 

the metal. 

4. Check the contact pins in the battery compartment to 

ensure that the pins are clear. They should be able 

to establish easy contact with the battery connectors 

and should not be bent. 

5. Check the electrodes on the battery. If they appear 

burnt, polish them with sandpaper. If there is serious 

erosion, send the battery in for repairs. 

6. Check the plastic components of the battery bracket 

to see it is in good condition and that all screws are 

secure. This prevents the battery from becoming 

loose during flight. 

7. Check the power cables between the arms and the 

center plate, if the cables are worn, contact DJI to 

arrange repairs. 

8. For long term storage, please refer to the "Intelligent 

Flight Battery Safety Guidelines" and check the 

battery once a month to prevent the battery cell from 

being damaged. 

9. Run the DJ I Pilot App to confirm that all battery cells 

are at similar voltage levels and stay at the same level 

when the battery is fully charged. If all cells maintain 

voltage levels above 3. 7V but any cell is 0.2V higher 

or lower than the others, contact DJI for analysis. You 

can also check the battery cell warning history. If any 

warning are reported, contact OJ I. 

II. Checking the Transformation System 

1. Check the servomotor cables for wear. Also confirm 

that the connection points are still in good condition. 

2. Check the lead screws and contact DJI Support 

to arrange repairs if any bending or damage is 

discovered. Clean the lead screws with WD-40 spray 

if they show signs of rust. 

3. Listen to the servomotors during the transformation, 

if there is abnormal noise, it may indicate that the 

servomotors worn. 

4. After the landing gear rises, check the lead screws 

and bearings. If any dirt or dust is found, clean and 

grease the bearings. 

5. Check the lead screws. If there is any scratches, 

dents, or plastic particles underneath them, contact 

DJI Support to arrange repairs. 

Ill. Checking the Aircraft 

1. Confirm that all the screws are still adequately 

tightened. 

2. Check the aircraft for breaks or damage. If there is 

any reason to believe that detectable damage might 

affect flight safety, consult with DJI Support. 

3. Check the carbon tubes of the arms for damage. 

4. Check the dampers on the landing gears. If they are 

loose, secure them with 502 glue. 

5. Ensure that there are no obstacles on or around the 

GPS module or around the antennas on the landing 

gear. Remove any obstacles (such as tapes with 

conductive material) that might affect or block the 

signal. 

6. Check that the right and left landing gear rest at the 

same tilt angle. 

tt;) 20ib 'JJI. All f~lghts liosnvoci 
IV. Checking the Motors 

1. Check the rotors to confirm that they have not 

become loose. 

2. Detach the propellers and start the motors. Listen 

carefully. If there is any abnormal noise, please 

replace the motors. This may be a sign that the 

bearings have been worn out. 

3. Detach the propellers and start the motors. Carefully 

examine the edge of the rotor and confirm that the 

shaft is perfectly centered on the motor. Check 

for any abnormal or excessive vibration. If any 

problems are detected, contact OJI Support to order 

replacement motors. 

4. Check for deformities by confirming that the gap 

between the motor and motor base is even. If not 

contact OJ I Support to order replacement motors. 

5. Ensure that the screws used to secure the motor 

base are tight and the plastic components around 

the motors are in good condition. If not please 

tighten the screws and contact DJI to repair any 

broken plastic components. 

V. Checking the Propellers 

1. Check the propellers. If there is any bending, 

breakage or cracking on a propeller, do not use it. 

2. Attach the propeller to the motor, turn on the aircraft, 

and place it on the ground. Stand 1 meter away from 

the aircraft and observe the rotating propellers. If you 

can see two distinct propeller outline layers, when 

looking at a spinning propeller from the side, this 

propeller is damaged and should not be used. 

VI. Checking the IMU 

1. Open OJ I Pilot app to check the condition of the IMU 

and perform an advanced IMU calibration. Please 

place the aircraft in a cool environment and on a 

flat, stable surface (if the landing gear is damaged, 

support the aircraft with four objects of equal 

height). Do not touch the craft during the calibration. 

2. Turn on the aircraft and listen for any abnormal noise 

or vibration from the fan located on the front of the 

aircraft. If any irregularity is detected, replace the 

fan. 

VII. Checking the Control and Video Transmission System 

1. Check the 4 antennas on the landing gear to ensure 

that they are secure. Also check for any bending or 

damage. 

2. Check the antennas of the remote controller for 

damage 

3. Check the neck strap for damage or wear, replace 

if necessary. 

VIII. Checking the Gimbal and Camera 

1. The quick-mount connector for the camera is a 

particularly vulnerable component. If the gimbal 

fails to initialize when turned on, fails to work after 

initialization, or fails to transmit video to the app 

(while OSD data is displayed), the quick-mount 

connector may be worn. In this case, replace the 

rubber mat, circuit board, and/or connector on the 

gimbal quick-mount. 

2. Check the metal contacts on the quick mount 

connector board, if any contact is bent, replace 

the quick-mount connector. 

3. Check the contact pins on the quick-mount 

connector board, if there is any dirt, rub it clean 

with an eraser. If any contact pins are worn out it 

should be replaced. 

4. Confirm that the gimbal is able to properly stabilize 

itself. If its stabilizing performance deteriorates, 

contact OJI to arrange repairs. 

5. Listen for any abnormal noise from the fan when 

the gimbal is turned on. This may indicate unusual 

vibration and the fan should be replaced. 

IX. Checking the Vision Positioning System 

1. Check the lens of the camera. If any dirt or residue 

is detected, gently clean the lens. 

2. Check for and remove objects that might block the 

sensors. 

3. Ensure that the Vision Positioning System is securely 

installed on the aircraft. 

4. Detach the propellers and turn on the aircraft. Hold 

the aircraft 1-2 meters above a surface with rich 

patterns, under good lighting conditions. Change 

the Flight Mode switch to P Mode on the controller 

and check the DJI Pilot app. If the app displays an 

altitude value and indicates that P-OPTI mode is 

active, the Vision Positioning System should function 

normally.

Individual Parts 

Remote Controller 

1. Linking is required if you wish to replace your remote controller or receiver, or add a new remote controller. 

Refer to the user manual for more information about how to link the aircraft. 

2. If the remote controller is powered on and has not been used for 5 minutes, it will sound an alert. After 10 

minutes it will automatically power off. Move the sticks or perform some other action to cancel the alert. 

3. A Slave remote controller cannot be linked with the aircraft and cannot control the aircraft's flight. You may 

change it to a Master remote controller via the DJI Pilot app, and then link it to the aircraft to control flight. 

4. Ensure the Mobile Device Holder is firmly in place and does not slip. 

5. For the GPS in the remote controller to function properly, and the Dynamic Home Point to be accurate, 

ensure the DJIIogo is facing the sky and keep the remote controller away from any metal objects. 

6. Repair or replace the remote controller if damaged. A damaged remote controller antenna will greatly 

decrease performance. 

7. When on the go, you may charge the remote controller from the aircraft's Intelligent Flight Battery. 

Camera 

1 . Photos or videos cannot be transmitted or copied from the camera if the Intelligent Flight Battery is powered off. 

2. Be sure to power off the Intelligent Flight Battery correctly, otherwise your camera parameters will not be saved 

and any recorded videos may be damaged. 

3. Test the camera by shooting a few test images to check that it is operating correctly before shooting important 

pictures. 

4. Respect the privacy of others when using the camera. Make sure you comply with local privacy laws, regulations 

and moral standards. 

5. Check camera settings before use to make sure you can adjust them to fit your needs. 

Gimbal 

1. The gimbal and gimbal connector are very delicate. Handle with care and do not touch the gimbal 

connector, as any damage will cause it to function abnormally. 

2. A gimbal motor error may occur if: (1) The aircraft is placed on uneven ground or other objects obstruct 

the gimbal's full range of motion, or (2) The gimbal has undergone an excessive impact, e.g. a collision. 

Please only takeoff from flat, open areas and protect the gimbal after powering up. 

3. Hold the gimbal firmly when detaching or reattaching it, so it does not drop. 

4. Do not add any payloads to the gimbal, as this may cause the gimbal to function abnormally, or even 

2 
lead to motor damage. 

5. Precision elements in the gimbal may be damaged by a collision or impact, which will cause the gimbal 

to function abnormally. 

Compass 

1. Ensure the compass is calibrated before every flight. Failure to calibrate may lead to a poor flight 

performance or even failure. 

2. DO NOT calibrate your compass where there is a chance of strong magnetic interference. This includes areas 

where there are massive metal objects, parking structures, steel reinforcements underground, or under bridges. 

3. DO NOT carry ferromagnetic materials with you during calibration, such as keys or mobile phones. 

4. The compass should always be recalibrated when moving from indoor spaces to outdoor spaces. 

5. If the rear LED shows a solid red light, compass calibration has failed. Please recalibrate. 

6. After successful calibration, the compass may become abnormal when you put the aircraft on the 

ground. This is because of magnetic interference that may be underground. Move the aircraft to another 

location and try again. 

Parameter Settings 

The Inspire 1 features a built-in flight control system to make operation as safe as possible. However, it is 

good practice to remove all propellers before switching it on for calibration or changing other parameter 

settings. 

Battery 

Refer to the Intelligent Flight Battery Safety Guidelines and battery sticker for usage and maintenance information. 

Storage and Transportation 

1. Store the Intelligent Flight Battery and remote controller in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, 

to ensure the built-in LiPo battery does not overheat. Recommended storage temperature: between 

22°C and 2SOC for storage periods of more than three months. Never store in environments outside the 

temperature range of -20°C to 45°C. 

2. Do not allow the camera to come into contact with, or become immersed in, water or other liquids. If it 

gets wet, wipe dry with a soft, absorbent cloth. Turning on an aircraft that has fallen into water may cause 

permanent component damage. Do not use substance containing alcohol, benzene, thinners or other 

flammable substances to clean or maintain the camera. Do not store the camera in humid or dusty areas. 

3. Always keep all parts out of the reach of children, as the cables, straps or small parts may be dangerous 

if swallowed. If swallowed, go to the hospital immediately. 

4. Detach the gimbal from the Inspire 1 when storing for a long period of time or transporting over long 

distances. Also replace the Gimbal Cover when storing. 

Maintenance and Upkeep 

1. Check every part of the aircraft if it is violently impacted. If you have any problems or questions, please 

contact a DJI authorized dealer. 

2. Old, chipped, or broken propellers or motors should never be used. 

3. Regularly check the Battery Level Indicators to see the current battery level and overall battery life. When 

the battery life reaches 0%, it can no longer be used. 

4. After every 50 hours of flight time, DJI recommends you perform a thorough inspection of your Inspire 1 

and all of its parts and components to ensure the safe operation of your aircraft.

Flight Environment Requirements 

1. Do not use the aircraft in severe weather conditions. These include wind speed exceeding 1 Om/s, snow, 

rain, smog, heavy wind, hail, lightning, tornado or hurricane. 

2. Do not use the aircraft in dust or sandstorms. 

3. Fly in open areas, as tall buildings or steel structures may affect the accuracy of the onboard compass 

and block the GPS signal. 

4. Keep the aircraft away from obstacles, people, animals, high voltage power lines, trees, and bodies of 

water when in flight. 

5. Avoid interference between the remote controller and other wireless equipment. Make sure to turn off the 

Wi-Fi on your mobile device. 

6. Do not fly near areas with magnetic or radio interference. These include but are not limited to: high 

voltage lines, large scale power transmission stations, mobile base stations and broadcasting towers. 

Failing to do so may compromise the transmission quality of this product, cause remote controller and 

video transmission errors may affect flight orientation and location accuracy. The aircraft may behave 

abnormally or fall out of control in areas with too much interference. 

7. P mode is unavailable in polar zones. Users can use A Til mode instead. 

8. Do not fly the aircraft within no-fly zones specified by local laws and regulations. 

Flight Warnings 

Failsafe and Return to Home 

1. Return to Home will not work if the GPS signal is insufficient or GPS is not active. 

2. Press the RTH 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, altitude 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. When updating the Home Point, do not block the GPS signal of the remote controller and ensure the new 

Home Point is correct on the live map. 

6. Do not update the Home Point near tall buildings, as the GPS may be blocked and lead to an incorrect 

location being stored. 

7. Only use the Failsafe and Return to Home functions in case of emergency, as they may be affected by 

the weather, the environment, or any nearby magnetic fields. 

Low Battery 

1. When the Critical Battery Level Warning activates and the aircraft is descending automatically, you may 

push the throttle upward to hover the aircraft and navigate it to a more appropriate location for landing. 

2. When battery warnings are triggered, please bring the aircraft back to the Home Point or land to avoid 

losing power during flight. 

Vision Positioning System 

1. The Vision Positioning System cannot work properly over surfaces that do not have pattern variations. 

The effective altitude for Vision Positioning System to function correctly is less than 2.5 meters. 

2. Vision Positioning System may not function properly when the aircraft is flying over water. 

3. Vision Positioning System may not be able to recognize patterns on the ground in low light conditions (less 

than 100 lux). 

4. Keep your pets away from the aircraft when Vision Positioning System is activated, as the sonar sensors 

emit high frequency sound that is only audible to some pets. 

5. Note that Visual Positioning System may not function properly when the aircraft is flying too fast or too low. 

4 
Transformation Function 

1. Ensure the landing gear is lowered before landing. 

2. Stay away from the aircraft when it is transforming to prevent injury. 

3. DO NOT attempt to catch the aircraft, as the landing gear will lower if the Visual Positioning system 

detects an object and may cause injury. 

4. Keep the aircraft arms clean, otherwise transformation may be affected. 

5. Never apply lubricants to aircraft arms. 

Others 

1. If you are using a phone as your mobile display device, be sure to continue flying safely if you receive an 

incoming call. 

2. Land as soon as possible if there is an alert shown on the OJI Pilot app. 

3. Upon landing, power off the aircraft first, then switch off the remote controller. 

Preflight Checklist 

1. Check that all parts are in good condition. Do not fly with aging or damaged parts. 

2. Remote controller, Intelligent Flight Battery and mobile device are all fully charged. 

3. Propellers are mounted correctly and securely. 

4. Lens is clear. 

5. Micro-SO card has been inserted, if necessary. 

6. Gimbal is functioning as normal. 

7. Gimbal is correctly attached to the aircraft. 

8. Motors can start and are functioning as normal. 

9. The OJI Pilot app can connect to the camera and all firmware has been updated to the latest version.

Introduction 

The 1345s Quick-Release Propeller is an upgraded 

propeller set for the Inspire 1, which enhances 

reliability during flight. 

Parts 

Quick-Release Propeller pair Securing Spring 

Mounting Plate M3x5.5 Screw 

Propeller Safety 

1. Always be sure to install the propellers onto the 

correct motors, as indicated in this guide. Rotation 

indicators are found on both the motors and 

propellers, ensuring that the correct orientation 

can be clearly determined. Be careful when 

installing and removing the propellers. 

2. The propeller set may show wear after continuous 

use. Inspect the hooks inside the propeller nut 

and mounting plate for wear, as shown below. 

If you have trouble identifying signs of wear, 

refer to Step 4 of the Installation section for more 

information. Be sure to replace the propeller and 

the mounting plate if they have become worn. 

Hook 

1 
3. Ensure that the mounting plate and securing spring 

are firmly attached to the motor before every flight. 

4. Propellers should never be used after they have 

been involved in a crash or collision. If such an event 

occurs, replace the propellers before flying again. 

5. The propellers, securing springs, and mounting 

plates have an approximate lifespan of 200 

flights. Inspect them regularly to determine if they 

should be replaced sooner. 

6. Always follow the prescribed storage procedures 

to avoid damaging the propellers. 

Installation 

Assembly requires a M3x5.5 compatible wrench. 

Follow the steps below to install the 1345s QuickRelease Propellers on the Inspire 1 . 

1 . Align the holes of the securing springs and the 

mounting plates (with a white dot) with the holes 

on the motors with gray axes. Insert the M3x5.5 

screws and tighten to secure. Be sure that the 

securing spring is facing upward, as shown below. 

2. Align the holes of the securing springs and the 

mounting plates (without a white dot) with the holes 

on the motors with black axes. Insert the M3x5.5 

screws and tighten to secure. Be sure that the 

securing spring is facing upward, as shown below.

3 
4. Installation is complete. Remember to always 

match the axis colors and direction indicators, thus 

ensuring that the propellers are properly attached 

and secured. 

To ensure that the propellers have been properly 

secured, hold the motor in place with one hand 

and use your other hand to try to rotate the 

propeller in the unlock direction without pressing 

down. If the propeller can be removed this way, 

the propeller and/or the mounting plate have 

become worn and should be replaced before flying 

the Inspire 1 again. 

Removal 

Press the propeller down firmly and, while doing so, 

rotate the propeller in the unlock direction 'D'l until it 

can be easily removed.

Battery Use 

• Never use non-DJI batteries. Go to www.DJI. 

com to purchase new batteries. DJI takes no 

responsibility for any accidents caused by nonDJI batteries. 

• Never use or charge a swollen, leaky or damaged 

battery. If so, contact DJI or its designated dealers 

for further assistance. 

• Never install or remove the battery from the aircraft 

when it is turned on. Do not insert or remove 

batteries if the plastic cover had been torn or 

compromised in any way. 

• The battery should be used in temperatures from 

-1 ooc to 40°C. Use of the battery above 50°C 

can lead to a fire or explosion. Use of battery 

below -1 ooc can lead to permanent damage. 

• Do not use the battery in strong electrostatic 

or electromagnetic environments. Otherwise, 

the battery control board may malfunction 

and a serious accident may happen during 

flight. 

• Never disassemble or pierce the battery in any 

way, or the battery may catch fire or explode. 

• Electrolytes in the battery are highly corrosive. 

If any electrolytes splash onto your skin or eyes, 

immediately wash the affected area with fresh 

running water for at least 15 minutes then see a 

doctor immediately. 

• Check the condition of the battery if it falls out 

of the aircraft. Make sure the battery is NOT 

damaged or leaking before putting it back to the 

aircraft. 

• Land the aircraft immediately when the low battery 

level warning activates in the DJI Pilot app. 

• Do not allow the batteries to come into contact 

with any kind of liquid. Do not leave batteries 

out in the rain or near a source of moisture. 

Do not drop the battery into water. If the inside 

of the battery comes into contact with water, 

chemical decomposition may occur, potentially 

resulting the battery catching on fire, and may 

even lead to an explosion. If the battery falls into 

water with the aircraft during flight, take it out 

immediately and put it in a safe and open area. 

Maintain a far distance from the battery until it 

is completely dry. Never use the battery again, 

and dispose of the battery properly as described 

in Battery Disposal below. 

• Do not heat batteries. Put out any battery fire 

using sand or a dry powder fire extinguisher. 

Never use water to put out a battery fire. 

• Do not charge the Intelligent Flight Battery and 

remote controller at the same time, otherwise 

the charger may overheat. 

• Do not leave batteries in a microwave oven or in 

a pressurized container. 

• Do not place loose battery cells on any conductive 

surface, such as metal-toppled table. 

• Do not put the loose cells in pocket, bag or 

drawer where they may short-circuit against 

other items or where battery terminals could be 

pressed against each other. 

• Do not drop or strike batteries. Do not place 

heavy objects on batteries or charger. Avoid 

dropping batteries. 

• Clean battery terminals with a dry and clean 

cloth. 

Charging the Battery 

• Do not attach the batteries to the wall or car 

charger sockets directly, always use a DJI 

approved adapter. DJI takes no responsibility if 

the battery is charged using a non-DJI charger. 

Never leave the battery unattended during 

charging. Do not charge the battery near 

flammable materials or on flammable surfaces 

such as carpet or wood. Do not charge battery 

immediately after flight, because the battery 

temperature may be too high. Do not charge 

the battery until it cools down to near room 

temperature. Charging battery outside of the 

temperature range of 0°C-40°C may lead to 

leakage, overheating, or battery damage. 

• Charge and discharge the battery completely 

once every 20 charge/discharge cycles. 

Discharge the battery until there is 0% of 

power or until it can no longer be turned on, 

then recharge it to the maximum capacity. 

This power cycling procedure will optimize the 

battery life. 

• DJI intelligent battery is designed to stop 

charging when it is full. However it is good 

practice to monitor charging progress and 

disconnect the batteries when fully charged. 

• Disconnect charger when not in use. Examine 

charger regularly for damage to the cord, 

plug, enclosure or other parts. Do not clean 

the charger with denatured alcohol or other 

flammable solvents. Never use a damaged 

charger. 

Battery Storage 

• Keep batteries out of the reach of children and 

pets. 
• Do not leave the battery near heat sources such 

as a furnace or heater. Do not leave the batteries 

inside of the vehicle on hot days. The ideal 

storage temperature is 22°C-28°C. 

• Keep the battery dry. Never drop the battery into 

water. 

• Do not drop, strike, impale, or manually shortcircuit the battery. 

• Keep the battery away from metal objects such 

as necklaces and hairpins. 

• Discharge the battery to 30%-50% of the battery 

level if it will not be used for 7 days or more. This 

can greatly extend the battery life. 

• Battery discharges automatically to below 65% 

when it is idle for more than 10 days to prevent 

the battery from swelling. It takes around 2 days 

to discharge the battery to 65%, It is normal 

that you may feel moderate heat emits from the 

battery during the discharge process. Set the 

discharging thresholds in the OJI Pilot app. 

• The battery will enter hibernation mode if 

depleted and stored for a long period. When 

in hibernation mode, if you try to power on the 

battery, the battery power LED will show a solid 

red light and the battery level LEOs will all be 

off. You cannot manually turn off the battery 

power LED in this state. Leave the battery 

unattended for 5 minutes, and then it will power 

off. Recharge the battery to bring it out of 

hibernation. 

• Remove batteries from the aircraft when stored 

for an extended period. 

Battery Disposal 

• Dispose of the battery into specific recycling 

boxes only after a complete discharge. Do 

not place the battery into regular rubbish bins. 

Strictly follow your local disposal and recycling 

regulations of batteries. 

• If the power on/off button of the Intelligent Flight 

Battery is disabled and the battery cannot be 

fully discharged, please contact a professional 

battery disposal/recycling agent for further 

assistance. 

Notice 

• Before carrying the Intelligent Flight Battery on a 

airline flight, it must first be fully discharged. This 

can be done by using it in your Inspire 1 or by 

connecting your remote controller to the battery 

using the Remote Controller Charging Cable. 

Only discharge the battery in a fireproof location. 

• Store Intelligent Flight Batteries in a ventilated 

location. 

• Should you require to carry the battery onto the 

plane, it is recommend to discharge the battery 

to the range between 10% and 20% in order to 

ensure the safety of the battery.

2. Solved issue of sudden gimbal drift during flight. 

3. Enabled aircraft to initialize and takeoff from a moving surface. 

4. Added intelligent landing gear feature: landing gear will automatically raise when the aircraft reaches 

an altitude of 1.2m for the first time, and automatically lower every time it descends to 0.8m. Users 

can turn this feature ON/OFF in the Pilot app. 

5. Updated No-Fly zones, please refer to http://flysafe.dji.com/no-fly/ for the updated zones. 

6. Optimized Return to Home. Now allows the pilot to interrupt the aircraft when ascending by moving 

the throttle stick up/down if it is at an altitude of 20 meters or more. 

7. Added a reminder to the Pilot app that will alert the user to perform a full Intelligent Flight Battery 

charge/discharge cycle when required. 

8. Added a reminder to the Pilot app reminding the user to fully charge the Intelligent Flight Battery 

before the first flight. 

9. Altitude limited to 120 meters when in non-GPS mode. 

10. Optimized the OSD display for HDMI devices. 

11. Pilot app updated to show the complete firmware version instead of individual component versions. 

12. When changing the Home Point to the RC 's location, added an alert to the Pilot app to tell the user 

the distance between the new Home Point and the previous one. 

13. Added more descriptions to explain why the aircraft enters P-A TTl/ A TTl mode in the app. 

14. Added more details to the Pilot app on the aircraft status when in Return to Home mode. 

15. Gimbal will stop moving if it detects that the camera's USB port is connected to another device.

INSPIRE 1 Release Notes 

2015.1.15 

Overview: 

1. All-in-One Firmware version updated to: vl.2.0.16 

2. DJI Pilot app Android version updated to: v1.0.5 

Major Updates : 

1. Enhanced self-check when the aircraft is powered on. 

2. Optimized ltv1U calibration process. 

3. Raised the electro-magnetic interference standard for compass calibration. 

4. Optimized aircraft yawing motions. 

5. Auto-takeoff altitude set to 1.2 meters (3.9 feet). 

6. Aircraft automatically descends and lands if RTH is triggered when the aircraft flies within a 20 meter 

(65 foot) radius of the Home Point. 

Notices: 

• Update the firmware to the latest version, otherwise you may not be able to start the motors. If you 

are unable to takeoff after updating, perform an Advanced ltv1U Calibration. This is found in the DJI 

Pilot app under tv1C Settings-> Advanced Settings-> Sensors ->Calibrate-> Advanced. 

• Re-I ink the remote controller to the aircraft if the connection is lost after the firmware update. 

• After the update, the aircraft must be powered on and perform a self-check procedure on a flat, stable 

surface. Do not perform the self-check on moving surfaces (such as in moving vehicles). 

• The Inspire 1 's propellers may come off during flight if they have not been adequately tightened and 

environmental factors (including sand, heavy dust, or high winds) cause the motors to stop or slow 

down suddenly. 

To prevent this, DJI is offering free Propeller Locks to all current Inspire 1 customers. If you ordered 

your Inspire 1 from the DJI Online Store, the Propeller Locks will automatically be shipped to you. If 

you purchased your Inspire 1 at an authorized DJI dealer, they can be collected from the dealer. These 

Propeller Locks will be available next week, and DJI recommends that you do not fly your Inspire 1 

before receiving and attaching the Propeller Locks. Future customers can get Propeller Locks from 

the DJI Online Store or at a local authorized dealer.
