GPS & Compass Calibration If the Compass Module is not used, you can skip this step.  The GPS  module  has a  built-in  magnetic field  sensor for  measuring  the geomagnetic field,  which is  not  the same in different  areas.  The  GPS  module  will  not  work  unless  the  Compass  Module  has  been  connected.  Make  sure  the Compass Module connections are correct. Please always  keep  the compass module away  from the magnet.  If  this  situation occurs please change  the compass module before flying. Otherwise it may damage the compass module and lead the aircraft to work abnormally or even be out of control. Calibrate  the  compass  before  the  first  flight  or  when  flying  in  a  different  area.  Make  sure  to  keep  away  from ferromagnetic  substance  and  other  electronic  equipment  when  calibrating  or  flying.  If  you  keep  having  calibration failure, it might suggest that there is magnetic interference or other ferromagnetic substance, please avoid flying in this area. If you have calibration failure or the LED blinks red and yellow lights alternately ( ), please connect to the Assistant Software, select the “Tools” tab and follow the tips of the “IMU Calibration” to do operation.  1. Quickly  switch  the  control  mode  switch  from ATTI.  Mode to GPS  ATTI.   Mode and back to ATTI. Mode for 6 to 10 times, The LED indicator will turn to constantly yellow. 2. Rotate  your  aircraft  around  the  horizontal  axis  (about  360o)  until  the  LED changes to constant green, and then go to the next step. 3. Hold your aircraft vertically and rotate it  (its nose is  downward) around the vertical axis (about 360o)  until the LED  turns off, meaning the calibration is finished. 4. If the calibration was successful, calibration mode will exit automatically. If the calibration has failed, the LED keeps flashing quickly Red. Switch the control mode switch one time to cancel the calibration, and then re-start from step 1.  GPS ATTI. Mode  ATTI. Mode      ATTI. Mode->GPS ATTI. Mode -> ATTI.

Mode, place  the aircraft in  an open space without buildings or trees. Take off the aircraft after 6 or more GPS satellites are found (Red LED blinks once or no blinking). If in ATTI. Mode, you can skip this step. 2. Place the aircraft 3 meters away from you and others, to avoid accidental injury. 3. Start-up  Switch on  the transmitter first, then power on multi-rotor! Keep the aircraft stationary until the  system start and self-check has finished.  Please wait for the system to warm up gradually with the LED blinks Yellow 4 times quickly ( ). You should not start the motors until the blinking disappears.  Keep the aircraft stationary, and execute the CSC to start the motors.                        Release the yaw, roll and pitch sticks and keep them at the neutral position, at the same time raise the throttle stick from the bottom. The motors will stop if you do not push the throttle stick from the bottom within 3 sec and you will need to re-start the motors.  Keep raising the throttle stick until all the rotors are working, push the throttle stick to the mid position and then take-off your multi-rotor gently, pay attention not to push the stick excessively.  Pay attention to  the aircraft movement  at any time,  and use  the sticks  to  adjust the  aircraft's position. Keep the yaw, roll, pitch and throttle sticks at the mid position to hover the aircraft at desired height. 4. Lower the aircraft slowly until touch down is achieved. The motors will stop automatically after 3 seconds, or you can repeat the start-up stick command to stop the motors sooner. 5. Please always power off the aircraft first, and then switch off the transmitter after landing. FLYING NOTES!!!   At  the  first  motors  start,  the  system  will  check the  sensors  Bias  and  you are  asked  to  keep  the  aircraft stationary (no need of horizontal level). If you  cannot start the motors and the LED blinks Green 6  times quickly ( ), it means that the sensor error is too big. Please connect the assistant software, enter the "Tools" - > IMU calibration, carry out basic calibration. Note: after the first successful motors start, this checking will be disabled and it  is no  need any more to keep the aircraft stationary during starting motors.  If in GPS ATTI. Mode, keep the aircraft flying in the open space without obstruction.  Pay attention to the GPS satellite  status  indicator  LED. When GPS  signal has  been lost  for 3s  (red  LED blink twice or three times), system enters ATTI. Mode automatically.  If the battery voltage is too  low for flying,  the  aircraft  enters the  first level protection with  LED flashing quickly Red, please land ASAP. Once the aircraft enters the second level protection, the aircraft will drop height automatically.    If you want to put the PHANTOM in a car, please keep it away from the speaker, since the compass module may be magnetized.  DO NOT fly near to ferromagnetic substances, to avoid strong magnetic interference with the GPS.  It is recommended to land the aircraft slowly, to prevent the aircraft from damage when landing.  If the Transmitter indicates low-battery alert, please land ASAP. In this condition the Transmitter may cause the aircraft to go out of control or even crash.

Note 1. Please make sure to record the home-point during flight, and clearly know where it is. 2.  During  go-home the  nose direction of  the aircraft  is facing  toward the  home-point, and  the aircraft  is flying directly from the current position to the home-point.  The flowchart of failsafe and how to regain control(the following content is for the firmware v3.12)(3)Turn off the transmitter (we assume you want to trigger failsafe)(1) The aircraft flies far away, transmitter is on but the signal is weak.Attitude Mode: In Attitude Mode as soon as you get signal you can regain control.GPS Mode: switch the transmitter mode switch S1 to the middle position (ATTI. Mode), if the receiver is connected, then you will regain control.Attitude Mode: (1) the aircraft will level its attitude immediately (2) 3 secs later, failsafe is triggered and aircraft will start to go home. (3) If signal is regained during (1) or (2), it will resume normal flight immediately.GPS Mode: (1) the aircraft will slow down and hover. (2) if the signal is restored within 3 seconds (transmitter and receiver connected), the system will immediately return to normal operation; does not enter failsafe. (3) if not reconnected within 3sec, the system will enter failsafe, then even if the signal is restored, the system will not exit failsafe.We strongly recommend you DO NOT try “Turn off the transmitter”, because there are three types of risk:(1) You must be pretty clear whether the Home-point is OK for landing or not. (You have to understand the definition of Home-point well and the working process of failsafe)(2) If there are tall buildings around, the aircraft may be obstructed on the way.(3) When GPS signal is bad or GPS is not working, failsafe will not work.In this case, the behavior of the aircraft is the same as in the above condition.If you want the aircraft to Return Home, please do not turn the transmitter back on within 3 seconds*, otherwise the aircraft will exit failsafe mode immediately.When you turn off the transmitter, use the following method to regain control:(1) Switch the transmitter S1 switch to GPS. position.(2) and then put the throttle stick to lowest position, you can now turn the transmitter back on (greater than 5secs after switching off, important), then put throttle stick to the center position immediately. If you hear the transmitter alarm, make sure the throttle stick is at the bottom position before moving to the center position.(3) then you can switch the transmitter S1 switch to the middle position (ATTI. Mode) to regain control.If you choose to turn off the transmitter, you must be pretty sure that you know how to regain control. Here we offer a method, please read carefully.This section will demonstrate the working logic of failsafe and how to regain control.The following description is effective only when:1. The aircraft is in flight.2. The GPS works normally and signal is GOOD (≥6 satellite, the LED blinks a single red light or no red light).Note: if you start the motors, but do not push the throttle to take-off the aircraft, in this case it is very dangerous to turn off the transmitter, because the aircraft will take off automatically, so do not try this.The aircraft behavior after failsafeHow to regain controlPrecautionsWhat triggered failsafe* If  signal lost for more than 3 seconds failsafe will be triggered, if signal regained within 3 seconds it will exit failsafe immediately.(2) One position of switch S1 is set as “Failsafe” in the Assistant software, and you toggle the S1 to “Failsafe” position during flight.The aircraft will slow down and hover. Then the system will enter failsafe mode after 3 seconds.Switch the transmitter mode switch S1 to the middle position (ATTI. Mode),  then you will regain control.

There are both first level and second level protections. It is not for fun, you should land your aircraft ASAP to prevent your aircraft from crashing or other harmful consequences!!! In ATTI. Mode & GPS ATTI. Mode.  The first level protection has LED warning.  During second level protection the aircraft will land automatically with LED warning. Meanwhile the center point of throttle stick will move up slowly to 90% of endpoint, you should land ASAP to prevent your aircraft from crashing! When the center point is at 90% of endpoint, aircraft will still ascend slowly if you continue to pull the throttle stick, and the control of Pitch, Roll and Yaw are the same as before.   (1) Configure  the  FailSafe  function  in  the  assistant  software  ->  “Advanced”  ->  “F/S”  and  read  the instruction thoroughly and carefully. (2) Configure the Low-Voltage Alert function in the assistant software -> “Advanced” -> “Voltage” and read the instruction thoroughly and carefully.
