PHANTOM 4 M-SPECTRAL
Quick Start Guide
v1.0

Phantom 4 M-Spectral
The PHANTOMTM 4 M-Spectral is an aerial photography drone capable of multi-spectral imaging functions. Its camera
features six 1/2.9-inch CMOS sensors housed within a high stability gimbal to simultaneously capture RGB images and
multi-spectral images in five wave bands. The electronic global shutter further ensures aerial imaging. The aircraft has a
built-in DJITM Onboard D-RTKTM, which provides precision data for centimeter-level accuracy*. Image data can be used to
generate a multi-spectral map for analysis of crops and soil status, providing reference information for precision
agriculture. In addition, multi-directional obstacle sensing is enabled by forward, rear, and downward vision and infrared
sensors*.
* This should be used with a DJI D-RTK 2 High Precision GNSS Mobile Station (purchased additionally), Network RTK
service or post-processed kinematic (PPK) data (recommended when RTK signal is weak during operation).
The Vision and Infrared Sensing Systems are affected by surrounding conditions. Read the User Manual to learn more.

Remote Controller
The remote controller features DJI’s long-range transmission technology OCUSYNCTM that is capable of controlling the
aircraft and the gimbal camera at a maximum transmission range of 4.3 mi (7 km)*. An iPad can be connected to the
remote controller via the USB port to use the DJI GS Pro app. In the app, users can create and execute missions and view
the observation results. These can also be achieved in DJI Terra by connecting the remote controller to a computer based
on Windows. The maximum remote controller battery life is approximately 6 hours*.
The figure below shows the function that each control stick movement performs, using Mode 2 as an example. The left
stick controls the aircraft’s altitude and heading, while the right stick controls its forward, backward, left and right
movements. The gimbal dial controls the camera’s tilt.

* The remote controller is able to reach its maximum transmission distance (FCC) in a wide open area with no Electro-
Magnetic Interference, and at an altitude of about 400 feet (120 meters).
The maximum runtime is tested under laboratory environment, only for your reference.
Pictures will only be taken when the shutter button is fully pressed.
Using the Phantom 4 M-Spectral
1. Download the DJI GS Pro App
Search for DJI GS Pro* in App Store or scan the QR code to download the app on your iPad.
DJI GS Pro
When using the aircraft for the first time, activate it using the DJI GS Pro app.
* Visit the official DJI website for more information about DJI GS Pro. https://www.dji.com/ground-station-pro
2. Check Battery Levels
Press once to check the battery level. Press once, then again and hold to turn on/off.
3. Charge the Batteries
Fully charge the batteries before first-time use.
Ensure to connect the Intelligent Flight Batteries to the charging hub as shown in the figure above.

4. Prepare the Remote Controller
Optimal Transmission Zone
Try to keep the aircraft inside the optimal transmission zone. If the signal is weak, adjust the antennas or fly the aircraft
closer.
5. Prepare for Takeoff
Black propeller rings go on motors with black dots.
Silver propeller rings go on motors without black dots.
Press the propeller down onto the mounting plate and rotate in the lock direction until secure.
Check that the propellers are secure before each flight.

6. Flight
For a safe take-off, make sure that the Aircraft Status Indicators blink green slowly (using RTK* or GNSS for positioning).
Takeoff
OR
Landing
Spinning propellers can be dangerous. Stay away from spinning propellers and motors. DO NOT start the
motors in confined spaces or when there are people nearby.
Always keep your hands on the remote controller when the motors are spinning.
Stopping motors mid-flight: Perform the CSC to stop the motors. This feature can be enabled in DJI GS Pro.
Only stop motors mid-flight in emergency situations when doing so can reduce the risk of damage or injury.
* RTK positioning is recommended. If using the DJI Pilot app, go to Camera View > > RTK to enable Aircraft RTK and
select a method for receiving RTK signals. If using the Mobile SDK, refer to SDK documents on RTK configuration.

CAUTION: RISK OF EXPLOSION IF BATTERY IS REPLACED BY AN INCORRECT TYPE. DISPOSE OF USED BATTERIES ACCORDING
TO THE INSTRUCTIONS
Environmentally friendly disposal
Old electrical appliances must not be disposed of together with the residual waste, but have to be disposed of separately.
The disposal at the communal collecting point via private persons is for free. The owner of old appliances is responsible
to bring the appliances to these collecting points or to similar collection points. With this little personal effort, you
contribute to recycle valuable raw materials and the treatment of toxic substances.
Umweltfreundliche Entsorgung
Elektro-Altgeräte dürfen nicht mit gewöhnlichem Abfall entsorgt werden und müssen separat entsorgt werden. Die
Entsorgung an kommunalen Sammelstellen ist für Privatpersonen kostenlos. Die Eigentümer der Altgeräte sind für den
Transport zu den Sammelstellen verantwortlich. Durch diesen geringen Aufwand können Sie zur Wiederverwertung von
wertvollen Rohmaterialien beitragen und dafür sorgen, dass umweltschädliche und giftige Substanzen ordnungsgemäß
unschädlich gemacht werden.

Tratamiento de residuos responsable con el medio ambiente
Los aparatos eléctricos viejos no pueden desecharse junto con los residuos orgánicos, sino que deben ser desechados
por separado. Existen puntos limpios donde los ciudadanos pueden dejar estos aparatos gratis. El propietario de los
aparatos viejos es responsable de llevarlos a estos puntos limpios o similares puntos de recogida. Con este pequeño
esfuerzo estás contribuyendo a reciclar valiosas materias primas y al tratamiento de residuos tóxicos.
Mise au rebut écologique
Les appareils électriques usagés ne doivent pas être éliminés avec les déchets résiduels. Ils doivent être éliminés
séparément. La mise au rebut au point de collecte municipal par l'intermédiaire de particuliers est gratuite. Il incombe
au propriétaire des appareils usagés de les apporter à ces points de collecte ou à des points de collecte similaires. Avec
ce petit effort personnel, vous contribuez au recyclage de matières premières précieuses et au traitement des substances
toxiques.
Smaltimento ecologico
I vecchi dispositivi elettrici non devono essere smaltiti insieme ai rifiuti residui, ma devono essere smaltiti separatamente.
Lo smaltimento da parte di soggetti privati presso i punti di raccolta pubblici è gratis. È responsabilità del proprietario dei
vecchi dispositivi portarli presso tali punti di raccolta o punti di raccolta analoghi. Grazie a questo piccolo impegno
personale contribuirete al riciclo di materie prime preziose e al corretto trattamento di sostanze tossiche.
Milieuvriendelijk afvoeren
Oude elektrische apparaten mogen niet worden weggegooid samen met het restafval, maar moeten afzonderlijk worden
afgevoerd. Afvoeren via het gemeentelijke inzamelpunt is gratis voor particulieren. De eigenaar van oude toestellen is
verantwoordelijk voor het inleveren van de apparaten op deze of vergelijkbare inzamelpunten. Met deze kleine
persoonlijke inspanning lever je een bijdrage aan de recycling van waardevolle grondstoffen en de verwerking van giftige
stoffen.
Eliminação ecológica
Os aparelhos elétricos antigos não podem ser eliminados juntamente com os materiais residuais. Têm de ser eliminados
separadamente. A eliminação no ponto de recolha público através de entidades particulares é gratuita. É da
responsabilidade do proprietário de aparelhos antigos levá-los a estes pontos de recolha ou a pontos de recolha
semelhantes. Com este pequeno esforço pessoal, contribui para a reciclagem de matérias-primas úteis e para o
tratamento de substâncias tóxicas.
Безопасная для окружающей среды утилизация
Старые электрические приборы нельзя выбрасывать вместе с бытовыми отходами, их утилизация производится
отдельно. Частные лица могут сдавать приборы в специальные пункты приема бесплатно. Владельцы старой
техники несут ответственность за ее сдачу в специальный пункт приема или аналогичную службу. Чтобы внести
свой вклад в переработку ценного сырья и ядовитых веществ, от вас требуется совсем небольшое усилие.
