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 iOm/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. Tj

No-Fly Zones

All No-Fly Zones are listed on the DJI official website at http://flysafe.dji.com/no-fly. No-Fly Zones are

divided into Airports and Restricted Areas, Airports include major airports and flying fields where manned

aircraft operate at low altitudes. Restricted Areas include borders between countries or sensitive sites.

The details of the No-Fly Zones are explained below:

Airport:

(1) Airport No-Fly Zones are comprised of Takeoff Restricted Zones and Restricted-Altitude Zones, Each

zone features circles of various size,

(2) R1 depends on the size and shape of the airport, and is an area around the airport that is a Takeoff

Restricted Zone, inside of which take-off and flight is prevented.

(3) From R1 to Rl+1 mile around the airport, the flight altitude is limited on a 15 degree incline, starting at

65 feet (20 meters) from the edge of airport and radiating outward. The flight altitude is limited to 1640

feet (500 meters) at R1+1 mile.

(4) When the aircraft is within 320 feet (100 meters) of the No-Fly Zones, a warning message will appear

in the DJI Pilot app.

No-fly zone Restricted-altitude flight zone Warning zone

Restricted Areas:

(1) Restricted Areas do not have a flight altitude restriction.

(2) R around the designated Restricted Area is a Take-off Restricted area Aircraft cannot takeoff within

this zone. The value of R varies depending on the definition of the Restricted Area.

(3) A "warning zone" has been set around each Restricted Area. When the aircraft is within 0.6 miles (1

km) of this zone, a warning message will appear in the DJI Pilot app.
