FCC Declaration of conformity
We, Delair SAS, located at 676 rue Max Planck, 31670
Labège, France
Declare under sole responsibility that DoC products comply
with Part 15 of FCC Rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and
(2) This device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired operation.
Any changes or modifications to this equipment not
expressly approved by DELAIR may cause, harmful
interference and void the FCC authorization to operate this
equipment.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with
the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15
of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference in a
residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and
can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed
and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause
harmful interference to radio communications. However,
there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a
particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful
interference to radio or television reception, which can be
determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user
is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or
more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and
receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a
circuit different from that to which the receiver is
connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV
technician for help.
This equipment complies with FCC’s radiation exposure
limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment under the
following conditions:
• This equipment should be installed and operated
such that a minimum separation distance of 20cm
is maintained between the radiator (antenna) and
user’s/nearby person’s body at all times.
• This transmitter must not be co-located or operating
in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.

China - Reminder before first use
初次使用前提醒
在第一次使用无人机前，拥有人应当在无人机实名登记系统
https://uas.caac.gov.cn 中进行实名登记。信息填报后，系统
自动给出包含登记号和二维码的登记标志图片，并发送到登
记的邮箱。请将登记标志图片打印在包装中提供的不干胶贴
牌上。最后，登记标志图片应当粘贴在机身中电池预留位置
EPP泡沫材料上。
注意 : 不实名登记或不按要求粘贴登记标志图片而擅自飞行
有可能会被追究法律责任。
Before the first flight, the owner shall register this
system on https://uas.caac.gov.cn, a CAAC (Civil Aviation
Administration of China) online real name registration
platform. After having fulfilled information online, the owner
will receive by email an image consisting in a registered
number and a 2D barcode. This image should be printed on
a sticker provided in the package and then attached to the
EPP foam underneath the battery in the UAS body.
Please note: The owner is held responsible for any legal
consequence if he or she fails to fulfill the above obligations.

User Manual UX11
General caution
Keep this manual accessible, so you can refer to it at any time.
The information and specifications included in this publication were in effect at the time of approval
for printing. Delair reserves, however, the right to make changes to specifications and product
descriptions contained in this document at any time without notice and without incurring any
obligation whatever.
A few words about safety
Your safety and the safety of others is very important, and using this aircraft safely is an important
responsibility.
To help you make informed decisions about safety, we have provided operating procedures and other
information on labels and in this manual. This information alerts you of potential hazards that could
hurt you or others.
Of course, it is not practical or possible to warn you about all the hazards associated with operating
or maintaining an aircraft. You must use your own good judgment. This entire book is filled with
important safety information—please read it carefully.
Avoid rotating propellers
Rotating propellers can cause serious cuts and even amputate fingers. Keep away from the propeller
whenever you are handling the aircraft. If you find it necessary to work on the propeller always remove
the battery first.
A long press on the aircraft Power button will deactivate the motion of the propellers.
Battery warning
Do not use any other battery or charger than the ones delivered with the system. The use of an
unqualified battery or charger may present a risk of fire, explosion, leakage or other hazard.
Stay away from hot parts
The UX11 heatsink and Delair Link metallic casing can become very hot during operation and remain
hot for a while after stopping. Contact with these parts can cause burns. Always be very cautious when
handling them.
Keep the operating area clear
The pilot is responsible of the security of people and animals that are in the operating area. Always
make sure that the area is clear before attempting any takeoff or landing operation (for details, see
Obstacle clearances on page 22).

User Manual UX11
1 Introduction
1.1 The UX11 system
The Delair UX11 aircraft is an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) that is operated remotely.
The aircraft follows a pre-programmed path where takeoff, flight, and landing require minimal human
intervention.
It is equipped with an industrial camera with optional PPK activation for survey-grade results down
to 1cm precision and can cover operationnally 1.2 km² (300 acres) with 1.7 cm GSD at 122m flight
height.
The aircraft uses BVLOS-ready communications. The mobile connectivity via a 3G network allows for
unlimited range. Additionally, the Delair Link radio link can also be used for communication between
the aircraft and the tablet.
The aircraft can perform precise steep (30 degrees) takeoffs and landings for use in confined areas.
Landings are executed at low speed through the use of distance-measurement technology.
The easy-to-use Android™ Delair Flight Deck application with its modern user interface allows for
quick mission planning (such as indication of no-fly zones) and monitoring the flight. A pre-flight
checklist helps you to prepare the UX11 aircraft for a successful flight.
If required, the operator can intervene to change the flight path or to land the aircraft. In case of
communications failure or loss of GNSS signal, a pre-programmed intervention is automatically
activated to re-establish signal loss or to terminate the flight early and complete a safe landing.
1.1.1 Typical applications
Standard image acquisition can be used for:
• Orthophoto creation
• Digital Elevation Model (DEM) or Digital Surface Model (DSM)
• Photogrammetry
The resulting data is useful for a range of applications, including:
• Mapping and Geographic Information System (GIS)
• Surveying
• Construction
• Environmental and conservation
• Surface mining
• Aggregates
• Public land management
• Landfill management

User Manual UX11
1.1.2 ISA conditions
All the operating specifications provided in this guide for the UX11 aircraft are determined using
International Standard Atmosphere (ISA) conditions. Applicable conditions are:
Specifications Value
Humidity 0 %
Air pressure 1013.25 hPa (760 mm Hg)
Temperature 15 °C (59 °F)
Air density 1.225 kg/m³ (0.076 lb/ft³)
1.2 Project phases
The typical phases of a mission are:
• Background map definition:
In the office you can prepare the background map. You can add details such as avoidance
zones.
• Area definition:
Define one or more areas to be photographed from the air.
Note
Once in the field, you must validate the area properties to take into account the actual environment.
• Flight definition:
Prepare one or more flights to cover the area(s) and suggest the takeoff and landing locations.
You can specify the planned direction the aircraft will fly over the area(s) in the office.
Note
If the flight preparation is done in the office, you must validate the flight properties in the field,
including the selected takeoff and landing locations.
• Flight scheduling:
This is completed outside of the Delair Flight Deck application. Flight scheduling includes:
– Check for flight permissions, weather, and site suitability.
– Schedule the flight.
– Before heading to the site, check all the equipment for any damage from previous
flights and fully charge all the batteries.
• Flight operation:
– Assemble the aircraft.
