With GHOST, ďŹying is no longer a privilege. Parts List Please check the contents of the box before using. Number Item Picture GHOST (with two pairs of propellers and four prop guards) G-Box (with charging cable) Battery and battery charger (with two charging cables) Gimbal and camera Landing gear, screwdriver, and eight 2.0 screws 04 Preparation 1.Battery Please make sure the following devices are fully charged before using GHOST. Battery G-Box 1.1 About the Battery It is a charge-discharge, lithium polymer battery specially designed for GHOST products, with a capacity of 5400mAh, cell voltage of 11.1v and an XT60 connector. The battery must be charged with the original charger provided by EHANG. Battery Charger 1.2 Charging Battery type: LiPo Charging: The indicators of 1S, 2S and 3S are the number of batteries being charged; 1A, 2A and 3A are the current. The higher the value is, the faster the battery will be fully charged. State: When the red indicator is on, the battery is being charged. When the green indicator is on, the battery is fully charged. 05 Preparation 1.3 Put in the Battery Put GHOST on level ground and connect it to battery cable. When the ďŹicker frequency is lowered (5 seconds per ďŹicker), push the battery into the compartment in the right direction and make sure the battery is tightly stuck. Close the cover and keep a safe distance (5 meters). Connect your smartphone to G-Box through Bluetooth, which makes it easier to unlock the smartphone APP and avoids unlock failure. If the battery is not tightly stuck, there will be poor contact with power source or failure to obtain battery information, which may affect ďŹight safety or cause unsuccessful take-off. 1.4 Attention Needed 1 ) Please examine if there is any tear, damage or deformation on the battery; 2) Battery temperature is high immediately after use. Donât start charging until the battery cools down to room temperature; 3) Do not leave the battery charged unattended.

Temperature higher than 35Ä might damage the battery or affect its performance; 5) Store the battery out of childrenâs reach. Please keep the battery away from source of water and ďŹre; 6) Avoid storing fully charged battery. It is suggested to use the battery within 24 hours after it is fully charged; if you determine not to use the battery for a long period of time, keep its electric voltage between 11.4V and 11.6V (single cell between 3.8V and 3.85V) ; 7) Do not apply external force on the battery; do not drop the battery from high places; do not disassemble or modify the battery; 8) Please replace the battery with new one if it bulges; 9) Please do not charge the battery for over three hours. 06 Preparation 2 .

U n l o c k Unlocked, ready to fly Unlock Propellers spin at low speed Voice notice Tap âTAKEOFFâ to ďŹy GHOST GHOST will beep if ďŹight command is not received in three minutes and thirty seconds. This is a normal notice. You can tap âUNLOCKâ and âTAKEOFFâ to ďŹy GHOST or unplug the battery to extinguish this notice. 2 . Ta k e o ff updated destination spot destination spot A:GHOST spot Takeoff point ascend and hover to 10m height C:Midway spot B(destination) D:updated destination spot When satellite reaches 6 or above, GHOST can take off normally. When userâs smartphone connects to Internet, the interface will display the positions of user and GHOST on the GPS map. See picture above: A is GHOSTâs spot. Click any destination (B) on the map to direct GHOST to B (from A to C to B). If the destination is updated in midway, GHOST will ďŹy from current spot C to the updated destination D (from A to C to D). 3 .H o v e r Tapping âHoverâ in any status will terminate the previous command and keep GHOST hovering. Ascend/Descend is not available during ďŹight. Estimate the height of barriers to avoid crushing. Micro-control is available only in hovering status. 24 GHOST APP Function 4 .F o l l o w Tap âFOLLOWâ to keep GHOST following you wherever you go and recording every amazing moment! GPS on smartphone is required to activate this feature. Available only in HOVERING status. At minimum 3m (up to smartphone GPS accuracy) horizontal distance from the user (smartphone and G-Box), GHOST begins to follow the user automatically. The farther apart GHOST is from the user, the faster GHOST ďŹies (maximum speed: 49mph). To stop, user should lower his/her pace gradually. Do not stop immediately (or GHOST will ďŹy over the user at high speed as it has no brakes). To terminate auto following, tap any available button on screen. Investigate surroundings before using auto following (GHOST cannot automatically dodge). While climbing, adjust GHOSTâs height accordingly (GHOST cannot automatically adjust height). It is recommended to ďŹy GHOST at a height higher than the user. 5 .R e t u rn ĘS GHOST directly returns. ĘS -.59:YIKTJYZUS and returns . Two situations of return: GHOSTâs height is over 15m; GHOSTâs height is less than 15m. Heights in this illustration are the vertical distance above takeoff point. 25 GHOST APP Functions and How to Use GHOST APP 6 .A s c e n d / De s c e n d/ Rota ti n g Ascend/ ड़/äź descend Rotating ፺ä Pull upward áŻĚšäŞŽá¸ GHOST ascends ä¸ăľťŕŽĚšŕĄś Pull downward áŻĚşäŞŽá¸ GHOST descends ä¸ăľťŕŽĚšŕĄś Rotate ä¸ăľťŕŽ clockwise 䜊ᏼ䌡ä áŻá Pull 䪎Ḡleftward áŻŕ¤˘ Pull 䪎Ḡrightward ä¸ăľťŕŽ Rotate anti-clockwise äľáŹĽäŚˇä Height control is only accessible in hovering status.

It is suggested that you choose an open area to ďŹy GHOST to reduce drifting mistake. 1.2 Please stay away from barriers, crowds, high-tension lines, trees and water. 1.3 Do not ďŹy GHOST in restricted airspace as stipulated by laws and regulations. 1.4 Please stay over 200m away from complex electromagnetic environment (such as a place with a signal tower or base station) in case of takeoff failure or crash due to intense electromagnetic interference (EMI). 1.5 Do not ďŹy GHOST in extreme weather including high temperature, snow, strong wind (over scale 5) and heavy fog. 2 .Pr e - ďŹ i g h t E x a mi n a ti on 2.1 Check whether G-Box and battery are fully charged. 2.2 Check whether propellers are installed correctly. 2.3 Check whether motor starts normally after unlocking. Please contact EHANG dealers or customer service in case of any trouble during installation or use. 3 .F li g h t S a fe ty 3.1 Make sure that there is a minimal of 5m distance between you and GHOST. Please stay away from dangerous obstacles such as barriers, crowds and high-tension lines. Please be a responsible ďŹyer. 3.2 During the ďŹight, keep GHOST within your sight to avoid accidents caused by oversight of surroundings. 3.3 Children must be accompanied by professionals when operating GHOST. 3.4 GHOST aerial must operate without prop guards and equipped with landing gear; put GHOST upside down on a cotton cloth to avoid scratching. 27 Flight 4 .C a u t io n d ur i n g F l i gh t 4.1 Limit the distance between G-Box and the smartphone to 5m or less (holding in hand is recommended). Communication will lose beyond the limited distance. 4.2 Ascend/Descend is only accessible in hovering status. During ďŹight, the Ascend/Descend signal is hidden on the right side of APP interface. Height control is only accessible in hovering status. During ďŹight, the height control bar is hidden on right side of the APP interface. 4.3 It is normal for the battery level to rise again after landing. It is not advisable to launch your GHOST when battery level is less than 30%. It is best to ďŹy GHOST with a fully charged battery. 4.4 Please tap âHOVERâ immediately in times of emergency. If GHOST fails to hover, please ensure your own safety before attending to GHOST. 5 .A ft e r- s a l e s 5.1 GHOST products are guaranteed by after-sales service (please see details on after-sales card). 5.2 Visit our website: www.ghost-drone.com to learn more about APP updates, newsletters, product development progress and after-sales service.
