# Aircraft This chapter describes the features of the Flight Controller, Vision Positioning System and the Intelligent Flight Battery.

# Ai **rcraft Flight Controller**  The Inspire 1's flight controller is based on DJI flight controller wi th several enhancements such as new f light mode and new

s afe 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 w orks best when GPS signal is strong. There are three different states of P mode, wh ich 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 t he 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 about IOC, refer to the IOC in Appendix. Use the Flight Controller mode sw itch t o change the flight mode of the aircraft, refer to the "Flight Mode Sw itch" on P27 for more information. 

## Flight Status Indicator The INSPIRE 1 comes wi th the Front LED, Rear LED and Aircraft Status Indicator. The positions of these LEDs are show n in the f igure below :

## Vis **ion 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 env iron ments wh ere 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 wh en 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, I nspire 1 can perform precision hovering even when no GPS is available. 

# z© 2015 DJI. All Rights Reserv ed. **17 INSPIRE 1**  User Manual Follow the steps below

to use Vision Positioning: 1. Toggle the sw itch to "P" as show n the figure to the right: 2. Place the Inspire 1 on a flat surface. Notice that the Vision Positioning system cannot work properly on surfaces w ithout pattern variations. 3. Pow er 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 w ill hover in place. Qi The performance of your Inspire l'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 wi ll switch from "P" mode to "A" mode automatically if b oth 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 surfac es.  Flying at high speeds(over 8m/s at 2 meters or over 4m/s at 1 meter).  Flying over w

ater 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 < 10) or bright (lux > 10,000) surfaces.  Flying over surfaces that can absorb sound w aves (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 w aves aw ay from the aircraft.  In the event of loss of remote controller's signal, the aircraft wi ll 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 adv ersely 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 aircraf t is flying over w

ater.  Vision Positioning system may not be able to recognize pattern on the ground in low l ight conditions (less than 100Iux).  Do not use other ultrasonic devices wi th frequency of 40 KHz wh en Vision Positioning system is in operation.  Vision Positioning system may not be able to stabilize the aircraft wh en flying close to the ground (below

0.5 meters) in fast speed. 0 Keep the animals away from the aircraft w hen Vision Positioning system is activated. The sonar sensor emits high freque ncy 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 GO app. This includes flight duration, orientation, distance, aircraft status information, speed, and other parameters. 

## A **ttaching and Detaching the Propellers** Use only DJI approved propellers wi th your Inspire 1.

# Flight This chapter describes the flight safety and flight restrictions.Max Height 

# 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 w ind speed exceeding 10m/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. Av oid from obs tacles, crow ds, high voltage pow

er lines, trees or bodies of water. 4. Minimize electromagnetic interference by not flying in area w ith 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 ope rate w ithin the polar areas in "FP mode. - n 

## Flight Limits and Flight Restriction Are Flight limits on height and distance can be set. The details of these flight limits are described in the follow ing 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. Wh en operating in P Mode, height, distance limits and No Fly Zones wo rk 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 GO App. Once complete, your Inspire 1 w ill fly in a restricted cylinder that is determined by these settings. The tables below show the details of these limits.
