### INSPIRE 1 User Manual 

## Vision 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 environments where 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.

# /~\ [?I

# ·~/**~** ,,./


### Using Vision Positioning Vision Positioning is activated automatically when 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, Inspire 1 can perform precision hovering even when no GPS is available.



### 17INSPIRE 1 User Manual
Follow the steps below to use Vision Positioning: 1. Togglethe switchto "P" as shown the figureto the right: 2. Place the Inspire 1 on a fiat surface. Notice that the Vision Positioning system cannot work properly on surfaces without pattern variations. 3. Power on the Inspire 1. The aircraft status indicator will flash twice in green light, which indicatesthe Vision Positioning system is ready. Gently push the throttle up to liftoft, and the Inspire 1will hover in place.
The performance of your Inspire 1's Vision Positioning System is subject to the surface you are flying over. The ultrasonic waves may not be ableto accurately measurethe distance over sound absorbing materials. and the camera may not function correctly in suboptimal environments. The aircraft will switch from "P" mode to "A" mode automatically if both GPS and Vision Positioning System are not available. So operate the aircraft cautiouslywhen in any ofthe following situations: • Flying over monochrome surfaces (e.g. pure black, pure white, pure red, pure green). • Fiying over a highly reflective surfaces. • Flying at high speeds (over Sm/s at 2 rneters or over4m/s at 1meter). • Flying over waterortransparent surfaces. • Flying over moving surfaces or objects. • Flying in an areawhere the lighting changesfrequently or drastically. • Flying over extremely dark (lux< 10) or bright (lux> 10,000) surfaces. • Flying over surfaces that can absorb soundwaves (e.g. thick carpet). • Flying over surfaceswithout clear patterns ortexture. • Flying over surfaceswith identical repeating patterns ortextures (e.g. tiles with same design). • Flying over inclined surfaces that will deflectsound waves awayfrom the aircraft. • In the event of loss of remote controller's signal, the aircraft will hover for 8 seconds and then

auto-land if it is in "P" mode. 

# :IJ •Keep the sensors clean at ali times. Dirt or other debris may adversely affect the effectiveness ofthe sensors. • The effective hovering altitudes ofthe aircraft is from 0to 2.5 meters. • Vision Positioning system may notfunction properlywhen the aircraft isflying over water. • Vision Positioning system may not be able to recognize pattern on the ground in low light

conditions (lessthan 1001ux). • Do not use other ultrasonic deviceswith frequency of40 KHz when Vision Positioning system is

in operation. • Vision Positioning system may not be able to stabilize the aircraft when flying close to the

ground (below 0.5 meters) in fast speed. 

# 0 Keep the animals away from the aircraft when Vision Positioning system is activated. The sonar sensor emits high frequency sound that is only audibleto 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.

# 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 asuitable location.



## Flight Environment Requirements 1. Do not use the aircraft in severe weather conditions. These include wind speed exceeding 1Om/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, highvoltage power lines. trees or bodies ofwater. 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 subjectto environmentfactor 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. JJ 6. The Inspire 1cannot operate within the polar areas in "P" mode. <D**~** 

## Flight Limitsand Flight RestrictionArea Flight limits on height and distance can be set. The details ofthese flight limits are described in the following 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. When operating in P Mode, height, distance limits and No Fly Zones work together to manage flight. In A modeonly height limits work andflights cannot go higherthan 120 meters. Max Height

### --- No-FlyZones All No-Fly Zones are listed on the DJI official website at http://feysafe.dji.com/no-fly. No-Fly Zones are divided into Airports and Restricted Areas. Airports include rnajor airports andflying fields where manned aircraft operate at low altitudes. Restricted Areas include borders between countries or sensitive sites. The details ofthe 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 ofvarious 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 ofwhich take-off and flight is prevented. (3) From R1 to R1

### +1 mile around the airport, the flight altitude is limited on a 15 degree incline, starting at 65feet (20 meters) from the edge of airport and radiating outward. The flight altitude is limited to 1640 feet (500 meters) at R1
