# Cautions When flying, the rotating propellers may cause serious damage and i nj ury. Please fly safe at a l l times.



## Assembly Cautions 1. 2 . 3 . 

### 4. 

### Use a bracket to mount the GPS module on the center frame to avoid interference with the power board. Ensure the I MU is mounted with the arrow pointing toward the nose of the a ircraft. If usi ng a receiver, attach it under the bottom board of the center frame wi th the end of the antenna faci ng downwards and away from obstructions to avoid signal loss . Ensure frame arms are mounted correctly. a) Motor mounts with CCW marks should 

### be mounted to lhe center frame positions with the following marks: Ml, M3 and M5. b) Motor mounts with CW marks should be mounted to the center frame pos1tions with the following marks: M2, M4, and M6. 5. 

### Do not remove any glued-in screws. 6. Screws that already have blue glue can be used once without thread locker. On other occasions, apply

appropriate thread locker first. 7 . The S900 should be lifted off the ground when testing landing gear or reca l ibrating servo travel. 

## Flight Cautions 1. ESCs are not water-proof, please do not fly in rain or snow. 2 . Ensure al l soft dampers and vibration absorbers are i n good condition before every flig h t. If not, replace i mmed iately. Otherwise , the fli ght performance of your a ir craft wi ll 

### be adversely affected. 3. Ensure all parts are in good condition before each flight. Do not fly with wom or broken parts. 4. Ensure propellers and motors are inslalled 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 sale distance away from people, buildings , high-voltage lines , tall trees , water

and other hazards. 7 . Use only 68 LiPo batteries for th e power supply. 8. Ensure all output signals from M1 to M6 are in proper working order when using the OJI 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 spi nning as this can cause serious i njury . 11 . Disconnect the battery and remove the camera during transportation to avoid damage or injury. 12. We strongly recommend using as many DJI manufactured parts as possible . 

## Others Ifyou have any problems you cannot resolve , contact your dealer or DJI customer service.

• Note the spnngs are 58.5mm before connect1ng to the center frame, and are stretched to 70mm

when mounting is completed. • It is recommended that the landi ng gear leg nng be placed about 30mm above the land 1ng skid tube .

# Mounting Frame Arms Instructi ons 1 . Prepare the arms.

( 1) Check all propellers for cracks , then insta ll and screw each propeller cover on tightly. (2) Ensure all motors are mounted f i rmly and ro tate freely. (3) Mount a ll arms with red propeller covers to M 1 and M2 to i ndicate the nose of th e 8900. (4) Identify the CW and CCW marks on the a rms . Mount the arms with the CCW mark to th e Mt, M3 and M5 positions of the center f rame. The arms with the CW mark should be mounted to the M2 , M4 and M6 positions of the center l rame.
