INSPIRE 1

The Inspire 1 is a professional aerial filmmaking and photography platform that is ready to fly right out of the box.

Featuring an onboard camera equipped with a 20mm lens and 3-axis stabilized gimbal, it shoots sharp 12mp stills and

stable video at up to 4K. Its retractable landing gear pulls up out of view, giving the camera an unobstructed 360 degree

view of the world 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 it the power to 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 if the 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 fully

charged 4500mAh Intelligent Flight 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 gear or activate Return to Home with a tap. Other buttons allow instant photo capture, video

recording, picture review and gimbal control.

A DJI Lightbridge-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 using a 5.8Ghz

wireless signal, and have a communication range with each other of up to 50 meters.The controller's LiPo 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 every 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 calibrate your compass where there is a chance of strong magnetic interference, such as magnetite, parking

structures, and steel reinforcements underground.

 DO NOT carry ferromagnetic materials with you during calibration such as keys or cellular phones.

 DO NOT calibrate beside massive metal objects.

 If the Flight Status LED is showing solid red, then try to calibrate again. If it is blinking red and yellow alternately after

placing the aircraft on the ground, the compass has detectedmagnetic interference. Change your location.

 P Mode:

Safe to fly. In this mode, the Inspire 1 has a strong GPS signal and

can use the Vision Positioning System allowing it to hover accurately

in position indoors and out. If outdoors, this mode alsomeans that a

Home Point has been locked so that it can Return to Home if the

control signal is lost.

If you are not in this mode, toggle the Flight

ModeSwitch to P position to enableit.

The Flight Mode Switch is locked in P mode by default.

Refer to the User Manual on how to unlock the switch.

There are three states in P mode.

P-GPS: GPS works best when outdoors in a wide 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 Positioning System to hover accurately. P-ATTI: Neither

GPS or Vision Positioning System available, aircraft is using only

its barometer for positioning, so only altitude is controlled.

Note that the Vision Positioning System may not work properly when

the Inspire 1 is flying over water, over surfaces without a clear

pattern, orin alowlight environment.

Return to home

 Return to Home:

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

either yellow or green.

The aircraft will return to the Home Point automatically in the following

cases (all require a strong GPS signal).

Smart Rill: When you press the Rill button on the remote controller or

in the App. Low Battery Rill: The DJI Pilot app notifies users to take

action when the battery level falls to a specified threshold.

Failsafe Rill: When the remote controller signal is lost.

 While returning home, its altitude canbe adjusted by the user to avoid obstructions. Tallbuildingsmay affect the remote controller signal.

The Ribs% Return toHomeprocedurewillbe triggered if the signal is lost. Be sure fly higher than any nearbybuildings to avoid crashing.

 Flight Limits:

The Inspire 1 is not permitted to fly within no-fly zones as

specified by local laws and regulations. Please visit here:

http://www.dji.com/fly-safe for more information. (7)

 Environmental Considerations:

1. Do not fly in severe weather conditions. This includes high wind, snow, rain and smog.

2. Only fly in open areas. Tall buildings and steel structures may affect the accuracy of the onboard 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 areas with high levels of electromagnetism, including mobile

phone base stations or radio transmission towers.

5. Aircraft and battery performance is subject to environmental factors such as air density and temperature. Be very careful

when flying 14700 feet (4500meters) ormore above sea level as battery and aircraft performancemay be reduced.

6. The Inspire 1 cannot operate in P mode or use GPS at polar latitudes. It only can fly in ATTI mode and use the Vision

Positioning System.
