2.  Ensure all soft dampers and vibration absorbers are in good condition before every flight. If not, replace

immediately. Otherwise, the flight performance of your aircraft will be adversely affected.

3. Ensure all parts are in good condition before each flight. Do not fly with worn or broken parts.

4. Ensure propellers and motors are installed correctly and propellers are unfolded before flying.

5. Ensure ESC signal connectors and power cable connectors are tight before every flight.

6.When flying, maintain a safe distance away from people, buildings, high-voltage lines, tall trees, water 

and other hazards.

7. Use only 6S LiPo batteries for the power supply.

8. Ensure all output signals from M1 to M6 are in proper working order when using the DJI A2 flight control 

system to avoid damage or injury. 

9. Do not overload the system.

10. Do not get close to or touch motors or propellers when they are spinning as this can cause serious injury.

Setting Up the Landing Gear

Using a 2-position RC transmitter switch, landing gear retraction can be carried out remotely.

Setting up the transmitter

Select a 2-position switch (default setting is OK) as the control input for the landing gear. Ensure the 

corresponding receiver port is connected to the “IN” port on control board. For the A2 flight control 

system, connect the flight controller’s F1 port to “IN” port on control board.

Upper: Toggle the switch to this position to raise the landing gear.

Lower: Toggle the switch to this position to lower the landing gear.

If the transmitter switch has a FailSafe function, set the FailSafe value to the [Lower] position. This 

ensures that the landing gear will lower automatically when the receiver enters FailSafe mode.

To avoid accidental switch triggering, slide levers or other controls can be used for landing gear 

control.

Usage procedures

1. Ensure transmitter and receiver batteries are fully charged.

2. Toggle the switch to the [Lower] position, and then turn on the transmitter.

3. Ensure the “R”, “L” and “IN” connections are correct.

4. Ensure the landing gear is in the [Lower] position, then power on the system. If a solid green LED on the 

landing gear control board lights up, everything is normal. If it flashes green slowly, re-calibrate the system 

according to instructions in “Recalibrating Servo Travel”.

5. Toggle the switch to the [Upper] position ONLY AFTER takeoff.

6. Toggle the switch to the [Lower] position for landing.

Setting Up the Landing Gear
Spreading Wings S900 User Manual

Servo power will shut off 3 seconds after the landing gear has reached its target position.

When powering on the system, if the transmitter switch is in the [Upper] position, the LED will flash 

red quickly as a warning. Toggle the switch to the [Lower] position to continue.

If there is an abnormal signal or no signal input into the “IN” port, the LED will slowly flash red. 

Check receiver and connections for problems.

If servo power consumption is too high, the LED will light up red. If this lasts more than 4 seconds, 

the landing gear will lower and the LED will flash green slowly. Re-calibration is needed before 

flying.

A2 flight control system users can use the A2 Assistant to set intelligent gear on the “Advanced” 

page. Refer to the “A2 user manual” for details.

Using the Propeller Holder 

Instructions

1. Insert the propeller blades into the propeller holder. 2. Attach the propeller holder to the frame arm.

Assembling Motor Vibration Absorbers 

A soft damper is part of the vibration absorber. Assemble soft dampers as shown below. Assembly is the 

same for CCW and CW propellers. 

Ensure all soft dampers and vibration absorbers are in good condition before every flight. If not, 

replace immediately. Otherwise, the flight performance of your aircraft will be adversely affected.

Before installing the soft dampers, put the copper gaskets onto the four mounting holes on the 

carbon plate. Then put the soft dampers into the mounting holes.

After tightening the screws, the vibration absorbers may be twisted. If this is the case, hold the 

motor with your thumbs under the base plate and fingers on the top carbon plate, and squeeze the 

plates together to make the vibration absorbers flat and parallel with the plates.
