Dreamer 4K adopts a new generation of Potensic flight control, which supports the following two
flight modes.
GPS mode: GPS module can realize precise hovering, path flight and other intelligent flight modes.
In the GPS mode, when GPS signal is no less than 6, it can be used for precise
positioning; when GPS signal is less than 6 , the drone cannot realize accurate
positioning, only provide altitude stabilization, and does not support smart flight
function.
Altitude mode: Without GPS module, it can only provides altitude stabilization. At this time, the
operator manually control flight of the drone with joystick. Beginners is not
recommended.

1. Check if the remote control, smart flight battery and mobile equipment are fully charged.
2. Check if the device body is complete and the propeller is installed correctly.
3. Check if the camera works normally after power on.
4. Check if App works normally.
5. Check if Micro SD card card is inserted and make sure the camera is clean.
6. Low power protection: the low power alarm is triggered when power is less than 20%. The drone
will intelligently trigger low power return according to the distance between the current position
and home point.
7. Loss of connection protection: after losing connection for 3 seconds, one-click return will be
triggered; during return, the drone will hover if reconnect successfully.
8. Out of control protection: if the horizontal inclination angle is over 80 degrees for 0.5 seconds,
the drone will be locked automatically to protect the motor.
The remote control and the drone are frequency-connected at the factory and can be used after
power on. But if you are replacing the remote control, it is necessary to re-connect the new remote
control and the drone. The connection steps are as follows:
A. Insert the battery to the drone, short press the power switch, and then long press for 7 seconds.
At this time, the battery indicator light is solid on, and the drone is ready for connection.
B. Press and hold the middle button of the right stick on the remote control, long press power
button at the same time, the remote control is ready for connection. (Picture 1). At this time, the
four footlights of the drone flash left and right alternatively, and the power light of the remote
control flashes slowly.

2. Connect drone with phone app
3. Geomagnetic calibration
Figure 1
C. The drone and remote control would conncet automatically, you will hear "beep" sound from the
remote control end, both the power light(remote control) and the drone footlights are solid on,
which indicates the drone and the remote control is successfully connected.
First, turn on the drone, enter the mobile phone setting option, search "Potensic D1_XXXXXX" in the
WiFi setting and connect. Then, start the mobile phone APP "PotensicPro" to enter the operation
interface.
The first flight requires geomagnetic calibration. If drone is under geomagnetism disturbance, it may
require recalibration as follows:
Step 1: enter the PotensicPro App setting interface, click the second column, and select geomagnetic
calibration in the list. The left front light flash green and the left rear light flash red indicate
that it's ready for calibration.
Step 2: rotate the drone 720° horizontally, than the right front light flash green and right rear light flash
red. (Picture 1)
Step 3: rotate the drone 720° vertically with camera upwards. The four indicator light are solid on(the 2
front lights are green while the rear lights are red), and calibration is completed. (Picture 2)
Note: if the left front light flash green and the left rear light flash red slowly, it indicates that calibration
fails. It is recommended to recalibrate geomagnetic after changing the take-off location.

Safe flight tips
1. Take-off and Landing

Figure 1 Figure 2
Function details
The beginner mode is in default. Under the beginner mode:
A. The flight distance is limited to 0 ~ 30m
B. The flight altitude is limited to 0-30m
Take-off mode 1: push the left and right stick inwards 45 degrees(Picture 1) at the same time, unlock
the drone or click the App unlock icon , and push up the throttle lever.
Take-off mode 2: long press the "take-off and land" button for 2 seconds, there will be a short "beep"
sound, or click the icon on the App . At this time, the drone will slowly take off
and hover at a height of about 1.2 meters.

2. Return to home (RTH)
*Smart low-power RTH:
*No signal return:
*One-click return:
Click the "HOME" icon on the app to start one-click return, click the icon again to cancel.
APP control:
Figure 1

The smart return to home (RTH) function enables the drone to return to the last recorded take-off
point. This function shall be achieved in GPS mode.
There are three types of return to home (RTH): one-click return / smart low-power return / no signal
return.
Remote control: long press the "HOME" button on the remote control, there will be continuous "beep"
sound, and the drone will return. Long press "HOME" button again to exit RTH automatically, and
"beep" sound disappears.
Low-power alarm: when power of the drone is less than 20%, there is continuous "beep" sound from
the remote control and the battery icon on the App flashes.
Low-power return: the drone system will automatically determine whether to return according to the
distance and battery power. When the drone returns, its four footlights remain
flashing until it lands on the ground.
If the drone lose its connection to the remote control, it will automatically enter the return mode. The
drone will automatically return to the ground, If the drone and the remote control are reconnected
during return. The drone will hover at this time, and the operator can control again.
Note: the drone does not have automatic obstacle avoidance function. If the drone crashes into
buildings or other obstacles on the way back, it will fall and break.

Note:
3. Headless mode
How to start headless mode
Headless mode
Do not change the direction of operation
Do not change the direction of operation
The direction of operator before take-off
Before takeoff, the operator's position is very important for "headless mode". Therefore, after entering
"headless mode", please do not change operator's direction to avoid direction confusion or
unnecessary loss and damage.
Put head of the drone faces straight ahead, click headless mode icon in the App to enter headless
mode after take-off, and click again to exit.
The forward direction of the drone is the direction of the operator and the remote control during
take-off. Regardless of the front direction, if the operator pushes the joystick forward and backward,
the drone will fly forward and backward accordingly; if the operator pushes the joystick left and right,
the drone will fly left and right. It is very important for the operator to remain his/her position or
direction otherwise it may cause direction confusion of the drone.

5. Follow me mode
4. Circle flight mode
Under normal flight conditions (flight altitude is greater than 5m), the drone will take the current
position as the circling center by default, with a radius of 10m and a speed of 3m/s, and circle
clockwise.
When normal flight altitude is above 5m, and GPS signal is no less than 6, the drone will follow move
position of mobile phone. In follow me mode, the drone can fly beyond the maximum distance limit.
Click the icon to enter circle flight mode
Click Icon to activate follow me mode.
