Aircraft
Prole
The M300 RTK aircraft includes a flight controller, a communication system, vision systems, a
propulsion system and an Intelligent Flight Battery. This section describes the functions of these
components.
Flight Mode
The following flight modes are available for the aircraft:
P-mode (Positioning) :
P-mode works best when the GNSS signal is strong. The aircraft utilizes the GNSS module and
Vision Systems to locate itself, automatically stabilize, and navigate between obstacles. When the
obstacle sensing is enabled and lighting conditions are sufficient, the maximum flight attitude angle
is 25°. When the GNSS signal is weak and lighting conditions are too dark for the Vision Systems,
the aircraft will only use its barometer for positioning to control altitude.
S-mode (Sport):
The aircraft uses GNSS for positioning. Aircraft responses are optimized for agility and speed
making it more responsive to stick movements. As forward, backward, left and right obstacle
avoidance functions are disabled, the aircraft will not be able to sense and avoid obstacles when in
Sport Mode. Only the upward and downward Vision Systems are available.
T-mode (Tripod):
T-mode is based on P-mode and the flight speed is limited, which makes the aircraft more stable
during shooting.
The obstacle avoidance function is disabled in S-mode (Sport), which means the aircraft
will not be able to automatically avoid obstacles in its flight path. Be vigilant and stay clear
of nearby obstacles.
The aircraft’s maximum speed and braking distance are significantly increased in S-mode
(Sport). A minimum braking distance of 164 feet (50 meters) is required in windless
conditions. The aircraft’s responsiveness is significantly increased in S-mode (Sport), which
means a small stick movement on the remote controller will translate into a large travel
distance of the aircraft. Be vigilant and maintain adequate maneuvering space during
flight.
Use the Flight Mode switch on the remote controller to select aircraft flight modes.
Attitude Mode Warning
DO NOT switch from P-mode to either S-mode or T-mode unless you are sufficiently familiar with the
aircraft’s behavior under each flight mode. You must turn on the “Multiple Flight Modes” setting in
the app before you can switch from P-mode to other modes.
The aircraft will automatically enter Attitude mode when both of the following conditions are met:
(1) the vision system is unavailable and (2) either there is weak GNSS signal or the compass
experiences interference.
In Attitude mode, the Vision System and some advanced features are disabled. Therefore, the
aircraft cannot position or auto-brake in this mode and is easily affected by its surroundings, which
may result in horizontal shifting. Use the remote controller to position the aircraft.

1. The Front LEDs show the orientation of the aircraft.
2. The Aircraft Status Indicators communicate the system status of the flight controller. Refer to the
table below for more information about the Aircraft Status Indicators.
The Front LEDs, and Aircraft Status Indicators can be turned off in the DJI Pilot app for
unobtrusive drone operations.

Front LEDs Aircraft Status Indicator
Maneuvering the aircraft in Attitude mode can be difficult. Before switching the aircraft into Attitude
mode, make sure you are comfortable flying in this mode. DO NOT fly the aircraft too far away
as you might lose control and cause a potential hazard. Avoid flying in areas where GNSS signal
is weak, or in narrow and confined spaces. The aircraft will otherwise be forced to enter Attitude
mode, leading to potential flight hazards, please land it in a safe place as soon as possible.
Flight Status Indicator
The aircraft features Front LEDs, and Aircraft Status Indicators. The positions of these LEDs are
shown in the figure below:
