Flight Modes, Functions and Warnings
Flight Modes
To avoid serious injury and property damage, observe the following rule:
The aircraft will y in P-mode by default. It enters A-mode only when there is weak GNSS signal or when the
compass experiences interference where the Vision System is unavailable.
In A-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.
Maneuvering the aircraft in A-mode can be difcult. Avoid ying in areas where GNSS signal is weak, or in
conned spaces. The aircraft will otherwise be forced to enter A-mode, leading to potential ight hazards,
please land it in a safe place as soon as possible.
P-mode (Positioning): P-mode works best when the GNSS signal is strong. The aircraft utilizes the GNSS and Vision
System to automatically stabilize itself, navigate between obstacles, and perform a mapping operation.
A-mode (Attitude): GNSS is NOT used for positioning and aircraft can only maintain altitude using the barometer. It
enters A-mode only when there is weak GNSS signal or when the compass experiences interference where the Vision
System is unavailable.
Failsafe and Return to Home
1. The Return to Home feature will NOT work if the GNSS signal is insufcient or if GNSS is not active.
2. Press the RTH (Return to Home) Button on the remote controller to bring the aircraft back to the Home Point. DO
NOT resort to turning off the remote controller to force the aircraft to return to Home Point.
3. Tall buildings may adversely affect the Failsafe function. Please adjust the aircraft altitude and speed while
returning home to avoid obstacles.
4. Make sure to always y the aircraft within the transmission range of the remote controller.
5. Only use the Failsafe and Return to Home functions in emergency cases, as they may be affected by the weather,
the environment, or any nearby magnetic elds.
6. The aircraft cannot avoid obstacles during the Failsafe RTH when lighting condition is not ideal, or if the Vision
System is otherwise disabled. Therefore, it is important to set an appropriate Failsafe altitude before each ight.
7. When ying indoors, the aircraft cannot perform precision hovering when ying above certain surfaces. Refer to the
“Vision System and Infrared Sensing System” section for complete indoor ying criteria.
8. During the Failsafe RTH, the pilot may regain control of the aircraft if the remote controller signal is re-established.
Moving the left stick when the aircraft reaches 20 meters (65 feet) altitudes or beyond will cancel the ascending
process and command the aircraft to return to the Home Point immediately. Pressing the RTH button once during
the Failsafe RTH will cancel the RTH process immediately.
9. If the battery life so allows, the aircraft may rst return to the last position where it had connection with the remote
controller during the Failsafe RTH. As a result, you may observe the aircraft first flying away from you, then
returning to the Home Point.

1. When the Critical Battery Level Warning activates and the aircraft is descending automatically, you may push the
throttle up to maintain the aircraft's altitude and navigate it to a more appropriate location for landing.
2. When battery warnings are triggered, promptly bring the aircraft back to the Home Point or land to avoid losing
power during ight and causing damage to the aircraft, property, animals, and people.
Vision System and Infrared Sensing System
1. The Vision System cannot work properly over surfaces that do NOT have clear pattern variations. The Vision
System is only effective when the aircraft is at altitudes of 0.3 to 10 meters.
2. The Vision System may NOT function properly when the aircraft is ying over water or snow-covered areas.
3. Keep your pets away from the aircraft when the Vision System is activated, as the sonar sensors emit a high
frequency sound that is only audible to some pets.
4. Note that the Vision System may NOT function properly when the aircraft is ying too fast or too low.
5. Operate the aircraft cautiously when in any of the following situations:
a. Flying over monochrome surfaces (e.g., pure black, pure white, pure red, pure green);
b. Flying over highly reective surfaces;
c. Flying at high speeds (over 10m/s (32.8 feet/s) at 2 meters (6.6 feet) or over 5m/s (16.4 feet) at 1 meter (3.3 feet));
d. Flying over water or transparent surfaces;
e. Flying over moving surfaces or objects;
f. Flying in an area where the lighting changes frequently or drastically;
g. Flying over extremely dark (< 10 lux) or bright (> 10,000 lux) surfaces;
h. Flying over surfaces that can absorb sound waves (e.g., thick carpet);
i. Flying over surfaces without clear patterns or texture;
j. Flying over surfaces with identical repeating patterns or textures (e.g. tiles with same design);
k. Flying over inclined surfaces that will deect sound waves away from the aircraft;
l. Flying over obstacles with too small effective infrared reective surface.
6. Camera calibration is required if the aircraft suffers from crashing. Calibrate the front cameras if the DJI GS RTK
app prompts you to do so.
7. Keep the sensors clean and at all times. DO NOT temper with the sensors.
8. The Vision System may not be able to recognize pattern on the ground in low light conditions (less than 100 lux).
9. Do not use other ultrasonic devices with frequency of 40 kHz when Vision System is in operation.
10. Infrared Sensing System is enabled only in the Beginner Mode* and Tripod Mode*.
* This mode will be supported later.

11. Binocular sensor contrary to the ight direction is enabled only in the P-mode when the aircraft speed is less than
6 m/s (13.4 mph).
12. The Vision System and Infrared Sensing System are not able to brake and stop the aircraft at a safe distance from
an obstacle if the aircraft speed exceeds 14 m/s (31.3 mph).
13. Please be mindful of blind spots of the Vision System and Infrared Sensing System. Refer the illustrations above
(Grey for blind spots).
Compliance with Regulations & Flight Limits
Regulations
To avoid non-compliant behavior, serious injury and property damage, observe the following rules:
1. DO NOT operate in the vicinity of manned aircraft, regardless of altitude. (Land immediately if necessary)
2. DO NOT y the aircraft in densely populated areas, including but not limited to cities, sporting events, exhibitions,
and performances.
3. DO NOT y the aircraft above the authorized altitude. Remain well clear of and DO NOT interfere with manned
aircraft operations. Be aware of and avoid other aircraft and obstacles at all times.
To avoid non-compliant behavior, serious injury and property damage, observe the following rules:
1. DO NOT fly the aircraft near or inside no fly zones specified by local laws and regulations. The no fly zone
list includes: airports, borders between two sovereign countries or regions, major cities/regions, etc., and is
continuously updated. DO NOT fly around sensitive infrastructure or property such as power stations, water
treatment facilities, correctional facilities, heavily traveled roadways, government facilities, military zones, etc.
2. DO NOT y the aircraft above the authorized altitude
3. ALWAYS keep your aircraft within visual line of sight (VLOS), and use an observer to assist if needed.
4. NEVER use the aircraft to carry illegal or dangerous goods/payloads.
1. Make sure you understand the nature/type of your ight operation (such as for recreation, for public use, or for commercial use) and
have obtained corresponding approval and clearance from the related government agencies before ight. Consult with your
local regulators for comprehensive denitions and specic requirements. For users operating their aircraft in the United
States, please rst visit http://www.knowbeforeyouy.org/ and take the most appropriate action that suits your
circumstances.
2. Please note that remote controlled aircraft may be banned from conducting commercial activities in certain
countries and regions. Check and follow all local laws and ordinances before ying as those rules may differ from
those stated here.
3. Respect the privacy of others when using the camera. DO NOT conduct surveillance operations such as
image capture or video recording on any person, entity, event, performance, exhibition, and property without
authorization or where there is an expectation of privacy, even if the image or video is captured for personal use.
4. Please be advised that in certain areas, the recording of images and videos from events, performances,
exhibitions, or commercial properties by means of a camera may contravene copyright or other legal rights, even
if the image or video was shot for personal use.

Flight Limits
DJI always stresses safety during ight, and has therefore developed various aids to help users comply with local
rules and regulations while ying. We strongly recommend that you update the rmware to the latest version to ensure
the following features are fully updated:
GEO Zones
1. All GEO Zones are listed on the DJI ofcial website at http://www.dji.com/ysafe. GEO Zones are divided into
different categories and include but are not limited to locations such as airports, flying fields where manned
aircraft operate at low altitudes, borders between countries, sensitive locations such as power plants, and areas
where major events are being held.
2. Flight restrictions vary by zone. Depending on the restrictions in a particular zone, warnings may appear in the
DJI GS RTK app, takeoff may be forbidden, the flight altitude may be limited, or the aircraft may take action
automatically such as landing automatically.
3. Functions related to ying actions will be affected to some extent when the aircraft is near or inside a GEO Zone.
These effects include but are not limited to: the aircraft may slow down, it may not be possible to create a ight
task, and a ight task in progress may be interrupted.
4. Operating with the GEO Zones restrictions does not guarantee your compliance with all applicable laws,
regulations, and temporary flight restrictions. Consult with your lawyer or local authorities to ensure your
compliance.
Altitude Limit
1. Fly NO higher than 120 meters (400 feet) above ground level and stay away from any surrounding obstacles.
2. If you intend to y above the default altitude limit, you are required to accept the prompted disclaimer to enable the
new altitude limit.
