Aircraft Status Indicator
The flight status of GDU O2 series aircraft is shown according to the tail indicator.
10
Flight Mode
The GDU O2 series product supports two flight modes:
1. Standard mode (maximum flight speed: 5m/s)
Accurate hovering and smart flight can be achieved through the use of the GPS module and vision
position system.
If the GPS signal is strong, the aircraft will be positioned through GPS;
If the GPS signal is too weak, and the light levels meet the needs of the vision position system, then
the aircraft will be positioned through the vision position system;
If the GPS signal is weak and the light condition do not meet the needs of the vision position system,
the aircraft will not hover accurately, and the GDU Mini App will prompt the user to land.
2. Sport mode (maximum flight speed: 15m/s)
The aircraft will hover accurately using the GPS module. The maximum flight speed can be
increased by adjusting the aircraft control sensitivity.
Attention! If the sport mode is selected during the flight process, the forward vision system will
automatically shut down, and the aircraft will cease actively braking and avoiding obstacles. The
user must pay attention to the surrounding environment and control the aircraft to avoid obstacles
along the flight route.
Attention! The flight speed and landing speed of the aircraft will be higher in sport mode than in
standard mode, so the braking distance will significantly increase. In a windless environment, the
user should reserve a braking distance of 30m at least to ensure flight safety.
Attention! The control sensitivity of the aircraft will be significantly improved in sport mode. The
aircraft will respond strongly and fly far in response to even minor operations of the remote
controller. In actual flight situations, the user should ensure sufficient flying space to ensure flight
safety.
Automatic Return Home
The GDU O2 series product has the function of automatic return home in three modes, i.e.
“Automatic return home”, “Low power return” and “Communication loss return.”
If a return point has been recorded successfully before takeoff, the aircraft will automatically return
and land in the takeoff area once the user triggers automatic return home mode, low power return
mode, or communication (between the remote controller and aircraft) loss control mode.
The return point, also known as the HOME point, is defined as the valid GPS coordinates recorded
at the time of takeoff or when flight conditions enjoy strong GPS signals. A return point is valid only
for the current flight.
When automatic return is triggered, if the aircraft is within 20m to return point and the height of
aircraft is less than 5m, aircraft will rise to the height of 5m and return; if the height of aircraft is
11
higher than 5m, the aircraft will return at the current height.
If the aircraft is over 20m away from the return point, the aircraft will rise to the preset height (if the
current height is above the set height, the aircraft will fly at the current height), fly directly above the
return point, and then slowly land.
※
Please set the return height in the flight setting interface of the GDU Mini App.
1. Automatic return home
Automatic return can be triggered during the flight process by pressing the “Return” button on the
remote controller or by clicking “
” in the GDU Mini App interface. During the return process,
the user can press the “Return” button or click “
” in the GDU Mini App interface to exit the
return cycle and regain active control.
2. Low power return
Three mechanisms are provided: low power alarm, low power return and emergency low power
landing.
 Low power alert
12
If the remaining power is 30% or less of total power, the low power alert will be triggered, the red
indicator will flash slowly, and the GDU Mini App will remind the user of the low power levels.
 Low power return
If the remaining power is 20% or less of total power, the red indicator will flash quickly,and the
aircraft will be forced to return automatically. During the return process, the aircraft can be
controlled by remote controller (assuming standard signal levels).
 Emergency low power landing
If the remaining power is 5% or less of total power, this will constitute a power emergency, the red
indicator will flash quickly,and the aircraft will be forced to land vertically.
※
The throttle lever can be adjusted to position the aircraft into a more appropriate position before landing.
※
If the battery power is too low for the aircraft to return, the user should immediately land the aircraft.
3. Communication loss return
If the GPS signal is strong, and the compass is operating normally, then a return point will be
successfully recorded by the aircraft. If the remote controller’s signal is interrupted, the aircraft will
remain hovering. If the duration of signal interruption exceeds 15s, the aircraft will automatically
return. Under WIFI control, if the duration of APP signal interruption exceeds 15s the aircraft will
then also return automatically. If normal signal conditions are recovered during the return process,
the aircraft will continue returning, but the user can press the “Return” button on the remote
controller or click “
※
” on the GDU Mini App interface to exit the return process.
WIFI control is only applicable to GDU O2.
Vision Position System
The vision position system includes the forward vision system and the downward vision system. The
forward vision system on two sides of the nose includes two lenses, and used for sensing obstacles
by visual distance identification. The downward vision system at the bottom of the aircraft includes
optical and ultrasonic sensors, and used to obtain the location information of the aircraft with optical
sensor to provide the location reference along the horizontal axis. The current flight height can be
judged through ultrasonic sensor, thus providing a vertical height reference and allowing flight at a
fixed height.
Observation Range
See the figure below for the observation ranges of the forward vision system and downward vision
system. If obstacles exist outside these ranges, the aircraft cannot effectively avoid them; please fly
carefully.
13
Downward Vision System Application Scenario
The downward vision system is effective with height less than 3m, in poor GPS signal conditions. It
is particularly applicable to indoor flight.
Operating Steps
1. Use the remote controller to switch the flight mode into standard mode.
2. Turn on the aircraft’s power supply. Wait until the flight status indicator is a steady green ON.
3. Engage the sticks to start the aircraft. The downward vision system will work automatically
without requiring manual activation.
Forward Vision System Application Scenario
The forward vision system is available in standard mode under well-lit conditions, and can be used
for observing and avoiding clear obstacles during flight.
14
The accuracy of the vision position system is likely to be influenced by light intensity and
surface of obstacles, and ultrasonic positioning may be inaccurate if the drone flies close to
sound-absorbing materials. Therefore, be careful not to rely on the vision position system in the
following conditions:
 Light intensity: less than 10lux or more than 10,000lux.
 Operating temperature: below -10℃ or above 55℃.
 Flight altitude: more than 4,000m.
 Excessively flight speed.
 Pure color surfaces (such as pure black, pure red, pure white and pure green).
 Highly reflective surfaces.
 Near water or transparent objects.
 Surface of moving objects.
 Strong or rapid changing light.
 Surface with strong ultrasonic absorbing objects.
 Surfaces with no clear textures.
 Surface with highly repetitive or patterned textures.
 Surface sloped at more than 30 degrees.
 Small obstacles (area: less than 1m2).
Smart Flight Function

Gimbal Camera
Camera Overview
GDU O2 is equipped with a Sony 1/3 inch CMOS camera, with a resolution up to 13,000,000 pixels.
With a low-distortion wide-angle lens of 25.5mm equivalent focal length, premium images can
be captured.
The camera supports 4K video recording at 30 fps and photographs of a maximum of 13M pixels.
Using the advanced image processing technology, high-quality videos and photos can be
provided. The camera also supports various shooting modes, including single shooting (12MP),
time-lapse shooting, continuous shooting (12MP/5 photos/second), timed shooting, and zoom
shooting.
HD videos can be previewed in real-time through the GDU mini App.
Memory

Gimbal Overview
The three-axis stabilized gimbal provides a stable platform for the camera, so as to shoot high
quality images during high-speed flight.
With this high-precision three-axis anti-shake gimbal, the variations in accuracy will be 0.02° or
less. Even in case of heavy maneuvering, photography will remain accurate to within 0.05° or
less, thus preventing shaking and enabling HD video recording and image acquisition.
The aircraft’s orientation angle and roll angle range are -30° to +30°, and pitch angle range is
-90° to +30°, which ensures shooting stability regardless of the aircraft’s motions.
※
Before takeoff, keep the aircraft on flat broad ground and prevent the gimbal camera from coming in
contact with any object.
※
If the aircraft is kept on uneven ground or grass and the gimbal camera is subject to collision against any
foreign object or large external force, motor stalling and other errors may occur.
※
Flight in fog or clouds may result in condensation or damage the aircraft and camera. In this case, dry the
gimbal camera and drone immediately.
※
A short vibration prompt after startup is normal. Do not physically turn the gimbal camera.
※
Before flight, check whether the lens is clean. Do not touch the lens by hand. Wipe any stains with scratch
free, lint free cloth.
