pushed to the left, the aircraft fuselage
deviates to the left.
Before flying, please perform the following steps in the above order: open (refer
to 11.1) → link to WIFI (refer to 11.2) → remote control to start frequency
matching(refer to 11.3) → horizontal calibration (refer to 11.4) → geomagnetic
calibration (refer to 11.5) → Star search status (in GPS mode by default)
(reference 11.6) → start/stop (GPS mode) (reference 11.7) → takeoff and landing
(refer to 11.8) → normal mode(refer to 11.9) → start/stop (it needs to open the
normal mode for indoor operation) (refer to 11.10)
APP application operation: Enter the APP control interface and click the "more functions"
icon to open the "joystick on/off" icon, you can see the operation joystick on the interface.
The operation method is as follows:

Warning
Figure 15 Figure 16
When the aircraft is in 1m from the ground, the aircraft will become unstable due to
the influence of its own blade vortex, which is called "ground effect response". The
lower the height of the aircraft, the greater the effect of the ground effect response.
13. Introduction to the APP application and remote control function operation:
13.1 Headless mode
The front of the aircraft when the code-matching is turned on is by default the front in
headless mode; if it is necessary to adjust the direction, please turn on the code-matching
again, and short press the remote controller "headless mode" function key (Figure 14).
When exiting, please tap gently press this function key again.
Special prompt: Please make sure the aircraft is aligned with the straight line and let
the gyroscope automatically detect the straight line, and the headless mode of straight
line flight can be realized.

13.2 One key return
Press the one-key return button , the aircraft will return to the place above the geomagnet-
ic calibration position (Figure 15). (The aircraft will automatically rise to a safe altitude when it
is flying below the safe altitude) and then land slowly. If there are obstacles during the landing,
press the one-key return button again to turn off the return operation and avoid by the manual
control joystick, pull down the throttle lever to land.
APP operation: Click the "one-key return" icon (Figure 16) in the APP control interface, you
can also return the aircraft; during the return flight, click this icon again to cancel the return.

Warning
Runaway return: When the signal of the remote controller is interrupted for
about 4s, the aircraft will automatically return to the place where there is a
signal and stop. Low battery return: when the aircraft is in low battery electricity,
it will forcefully return to a place that is 20m above the take-off point. The return
flight cannot be cancelled during the low battery return.
13.4 Waypoint flight mode
①In GPS mode, click the "More Functions" icon (Figure 20) in the APP control interface to
enter the multi-point flight (Figure 21). At this time, the interface changes from the image
transmission page to the map page. On the map page, click to set the track range of the
segmented waypoints or continuous waypoints (Figure 22). During the setting, if the track
waypoints are too dense, you can click the delete icon to delete all the waypoints (Figure 23).
②After setting of the waypoint, click the send icon (Figure 24), the aircraft will fly to all
waypoints from the initial point to complete the preset flight trajectory. The direction of the
aircraft can be controlled by the joystick during the flight.

13.3 Speed switching
When the aircraft takes off, it is by default in the low-speed mode (3-geared switching);
gently press the remote control by a "beep" sound for low-speed gear, two "beep" sounds for
medium-speed gear, and three "beep" sounds for high-speed gear (Figure 17)".

13.5 Orbital flight mode
In GPS mode, click "More Features" icon in the APP control interface (Figure 25) to enter the
orbit flight mode (Figure 26), the aircraft will automatically orbit in a radius (Figure 27), and
the radius can be adjusted on the APP (Figure 28). At this time, push the right direction
joystick to fly left or right (Figure 29) at the default speed, the orbital speed can be adjusted.
Push the right direction joystick front or rear, the orbit radius can be adjusted, and when the
orbit button is pressed again, the orbit flight will end (Figure 30).
13.6 GPS follow mode
In GPS mode, click the “More Functions” icon (Figure 31) in the APP control interface to
enter the follow (Figure 32). The aircraft will use the distance from the current position to the
operator (mobile phone or IPAD) device as a reference, and move by tracking changes in the
location of mobile devices. In following, lightly press the red icon to cancel the following.
13.7 Gesture recognition
When facing the camera's front lens, click the gesture photo button on the APP, and use any
of the following gestures to trigger the aircraft's photo or camera function.
Special Tip: Please face the lens with the front being at a position about 2-3M away and
in a better light and background environment to perform the gesture recognition.
14

Yeah gesture photo
In about 3m front of the aircraft lens, make Yeah gesture with one hand in
horizontal position; after the aircraft successfully recognizes the gesture, count
down 3 seconds and take photos.
Palm gesture video-recording
In about 3m front of the aircraft lens, put five fingers together and lift one hand to
horizontal position; after the aircraft successfully recognizes the gesture, it will
start recording. The recording will end when the gesture is re-recognized (the time
difference between the two recognitions shall be greater than 3s).

13.8 MV interface
Click the "filter interface" icon (Figure 33) in the APP control interface, after entering the
filter interface, you can choose to match your favorite filter effect, click the recording icon to
start recording (Figure 34). After the recording is completed, the synthesized short video or
picture will be saved to the media library (Figure 35).
Tips: During the recording process, you can rotate the screen or switch the filter effect,
and you can also turn the joystick on / off to control the direction and altitude of the aircraft.
