Caution After power on, when the ground station doesn’t require other operations, please always keep the aircraft horizontal and static; otherwise, it may result in initialization failure. Figure 3-26
49 3.9 Check and Debugging Warning The subsequent steps can be implemented only after checking and debugging all the items listed in the chapter below. Besides, the remote control and ground station prompt that each status is normal and the aircraft indicator light flashes green. Tips It is recommended to set the display image of remote control and ground station as video preview mode before taking off. Check operation condition. Please debug each component to make it operate normally when both the remote control and ground station prompt abnormity. It is going to list common calibration items, abnormities and its solutions in the following chapter. 3.9.1 Aircraft Diagnosis Abnormities There is no image transmission or data transmission display on the ground station. Exact Operation Step 1 Select "Aircraft Settings > Diagnosis" to enter diagnosis interface, as shown in Figure 3-27. Figure 3-27 Step 2 Click "Start Diagnosis" and the system enters self-diagnosis. Step 3 Display diagnosis suggestion after diagnosis is completed. "Start Diagnosis" button becomes yellow, as shown in Figure 3-28.

Figure 3-29 Step 2 Move both the left and right sticks back to the middle. Step 3 Click "Start Calibration". Step 4 Turn two sticks and turn to the max end of each direction for several times. Step 5 Slide the rolling wheels on both sides, slide to the max end of two directions for several times. Step 6 Click "Complete Calibration" after turning the rolling wheels and sticks. 3.9.3 Accelerometer Calibration Select "Settings > General > Other > Accelerometer Calibration" to enter the interface of accelerometer calibration, as shown in Figure 3-30.
51 Figure 3-30 Place the aircraft on a flat surface, and click "Start Calibration".  The remote control will prompt "Calibration Success" if it is successfully calibrated.  The remote control will prompt "Calibration Failure" if it fails to calibrate. Click "Retry" till it is successfully calibrated. 3.9.4 Initialization Failure Abnormity Prompt Both remote control and ground station prompt "Initialization Failure". Possible Reasons After power on and before taking off, it may result in initialization failure if you move the aircraft. Solutions Power on the aircraft again after the power is cut off, and keep the aircraft horizontal and static during initialization. Please contact our company if initialization fails for several times. 3.9.5 Geomagnetic Abnormity Abnormity Prompt  Aircraft indicator ●●● flashes.  Both remote control and ground station prompt "Geomagnetic Abnormity". Possible Reasons
52  The use position has changed a lot, which means the geographical location is quite far away from the last geographical location where the aircraft is used, causing big change to geomagnetic field.  There is another intensive magnetic field in the environment, affecting geomagnetic field. Solutions Step 1 Select "Settings > General > Other > Geomagnetic Calibration" on the remote control and enter the interface of geomagnetic calibration, as shown in Figure 3-31. Figure 3-31 Step 2 Click "Start Calibration". Step 3 Keep the aircraft horizontal and rotate it for one circle horizontally, as shown in Figure 3-32. Figure 3-32 Step 4 Keep the aircraft vertical and rotate it for one circle vertically, as shown in Figure 3-33.
53 Figure 3-33 ● It will prompt geomagnetic calibration success if it is successfully calibrated. ● It will prompt geomagnetic calibration failure if it fails to calibrate. Repeat Step 2, 3 and 4 to calibrate again. 3.9.6 GPS Satellites Insufficiency Abnormity Prompt Displayed number of satellites for remote control and ground station is less than 6. Possible Reasons  The flying environment is not wide open enough, which is severely blocked.  There is some other interference around the surroundings. Solutions Move the aircraft to a wider area and wait for 30s. 3.10 Install Propellers Step 1 Press the spring buckle on both sides of the propeller center, as shown in Figure 3-34.
54 Figure 3-34 Step 2 Buckle the latch on the motor, as shown in Figure 3-35. Note The structures of 3 pairs of propellers are different. Adjust to the adjacent motor position to install if it fails to buckle. Figure 3-35

68 Click “Course Lock” and the icon becomes yellow, and it will prompt “Course Lock Enabled”. 4.4 Intelligent Protection Mechanism 4.4.1 Low Battery There are totally three prompts of aircraft low battery for the remote control, and each prompt is more serious than the previous one.  Level-one low battery, remote control prompts message: “Low Voltage Alarm”, along with alarm sound.  Level-two low battery, remote control prompts message: “Serious low voltage home”, along with alarm sound. First ascend to 120m, return to HOME point and then descend. At this time, it is OK to suspend low voltage home (cancel button appears on App, or suspend it by switching the mode of remote control).  Level-three low battery, remote control prompts message: “Serious low voltage landing”, along with alarm sound. Meanwhile, the aircraft triggers landing mode. Note After suspending low voltage home, level-three low battery alarm will be triggered if it continues to fly or fly in some harsh environment. 4.4.2 Out of Control  The aircraft may run into the following out of control situations: The aircraft or remote control antenna is damaged, and it fails to receive and send signals. Intensive magnetic field arises in ambient environment, which interferes with the aircraft and remote control.  Solutions: Out of control auto return: ascend the aircraft to 120m first and then return to HOME point. 4.4.3 Electronic Fence 4.4.3.1 Fence Area Settings Draw an area of electronic fence.

The aircraft is restricted to fly within the circle, and there is no limit to the altitude. ● ALT+ Circle: Take HOME point as circle center and set value as radius. The set height is considered as max. flight altitude, the aircraft is restricted to fly within the cylindrical area.
70 Figure 4-24 Step 3 Set fence action. Figure 4-25 ● Notify only: It only prompts on preview interface, but it doesn’t trigger RTH. ● RTL: The aircraft will auto return after it exceeds the fence trigger distance. Step 4 Set radius and altitude. Step 5 Set trigger distance. For example, when the fence type is set as radius + altitude, the radius is set as A meters and altitude is set as B meters, and if the trigger distance is set as C meters, then it will trigger RTH or landing when the aircraft is (A-C) meters away from the HOME point horizontally or flight altitude exceeds (B-C) meters; the aircraft will implement the action of RTH or landing. 4.4.3.2 Enable Electronic Fence Enable electronic fence after setting fence area.
