Drone status indicator Light
The drone body contains a nose red indicator light and a Green GPS signal status indicator light.
Their location is shown in the picture below.
nose red light Green GPS signal light
The red light indicates the direction of the nose of the drone and prompts the drone to have low
voltage. The green indicator light indicates the GPS search situation and the calibration process
prompt. Please refer to the following table for the different messages.
Drone Status Indicators
GPS Status
Solid Green on Good GPS signal
Green Fast Flashing Poor GPS signal
Low battery warnings
Two Red Flashes First level low battery warning, for safety, land as soon as possible.
Red Fast Flashing Second level low battery warning, the drone will start its auto landing sequence.
Calibration Status
Alternating Red and Green slow flashing Compass error needs to be calibrated
Green Fast Flashing Compass calibration enters horizontal rotation
Green slow Flashing The compass is calibrated into the nose vertical rotation.
Alternating Red and Green slow flashing Gyro error needs to be calibrated

The flashing mode of all calibration prompts is the same. For specific calibration, please refer
to the display prompts on the remote control screen.
Propellers
©2021 Swellpro All rights reserved
8
The FD1 drone has two pairs of propellers - two clockwise propellers and two counter-clockwise
propellers. The hub of each motor shows the type of propeller used for that motor. Propellers
cannot be attached to the wrong motor by accident.
Always place one hand under the motor to support it when installing or removing propellers.
Failure to provide this support could result in bending or breaking the landing gear.
Attaching and Removing Propellers:
1. Check that the propeller rotation (CW or CCW) matches the motor hub.
2. Grasp the motor housing with one hand and hold the arm of the aircraft upward; grasp the
carbon fiber propeller with the other hand and install in the slot correctly.
3. Press down firmly and rotate it so that the carbon fiber propeller is installed in place (the lock
mark on the blade is aligned with the dot on the propeller seat), and then slightly force the
propeller up.Pull up a little so that the paddle cannot turn left and right.
4. To remove propellers, press down firmly and rotate in the opposite direction to unlock it from
the hub.
The blades are sharp, please be careful to avoid personal injury.
Prior to each flight, please check that the propellers are smooth all over and are correctly
installed and securely fastened.
Spin each propeller by hand to check that the motors are free of sand or salt and spin
freely.If there are impurities in the motor, be sure to clean it up before starting the motor.
Batteries

Drone Battery Installation
1. Fold the battery charging cable and power cable to the side and press it with your thumb.
2. 2. Tilt the battery and insert into the slot from the rear of the drone to the drone nose
direction, tighten the rolled strip. Insert the power plug to complete the battery installation.
Power Switch
A power switch is located underneath the drone. when you connect the battery, press and hold
the power swift for 3 seconds to power on the drone, and press and hold again for 3 seconds to
power off. (*after flying, please be sure to disconnect the battery, Do not store the drone with
the battery connected as this can cause permanent damage to the battery.)
Drone low battery warning
There are two low battery warning levels:
Level 1 low battery warning:
when the drone battery level reached at 14.6V, the remote control screen will shows the low
voltage icon slowly flash, At the same time alternating nose red indicator light flashing twice at an
interval. Now,land the drone as soon as possible.
Level 2 low battery warning:
when the drone battery level reached at 14.2V, and the remote control screen will shows the low
voltage icon slowly flash. After 10 seconds, the drone will automatically landing to protect the
drone and battery. At this time, alternating nose red indicator light fast flashing. (If you want to
land the drone manually,Please switch to ATTI mode to take over the drone control again)
Level 1 warning: pop-up icon, slow flashing prompt (interval 3 seconds)

Level 2 warning: pop-up icon, fast flashing prompt (interval 1 seconds)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
During the flight , it is important to continuously monitor the battery voltage,since the flight
conditions such as strong windy, heavy load or fast maneuvering will be more severe and drain
the battery faster.
It is very dangerous to continue to fly the drone when in low battery condition, which may
cause battery damage and the risk of crash.
Low temperature precautions :
1.In low temperature environments (-10C degrees to 5C degrees) , flight time will be
reduced. Ensure batteries are fully charged and kept warm for the batteries before use.
2. Also be aware that the low battery warnings will provide less warning time, so land the
drone as soon as the first battery warning appears.
Flight Modes
The GPS satellite positioning accuracy of the drone is displayed as 0-10 on the remote
controller. 10 is the highest accuracy. It is recommended to take off at least 5 ,the accuracy is
within 1 meter if 10. 9=1.1 meters; 8=1.2 meters, 7=1.3 meters, 6=1.4 meters, 5=1.5 meters.
GPS mode :
This mode uses the GPS module to achieve accurate and stabilized hovering,
braking, intelligent flight, intelligent return and other intelligent flight mode
functions. In this mode, maximum flight speed is 10m/s, maximum ascend speed is 4m/s, and
maximum descend speed is 3m/s.
Headless flight mode:
No matter what direction of the current drone is located in, as long as the joystick is pulled down,
the drone will keep the current condition and fly straight towards to return home.
ATTI mode:
This is a more advanced flight mode which does not provide positioning function, but provides
fixed altitude, maintains altitude stabilization, the maximum flight speed up to 18m/s, if the GPS
satellite signal is good, return home is available.
In both ATTI and GPS mode, it is recommended to wait for at least 5 GPS satellites before
take-off to ensure that the home point is correctly registered for the return home function to
operate.
Attention to the user: the speed is more faster when flying in the attitude(ATTI) mode. when
flying in a windless environment, we recommend the reserve at least 30 meters for the braking
distance to ensure flight safety.
Return home
Flare maneuver Description
If the drone’s height > 20 Meters and distance from Home
Point > 15 Meters, the drone will maintain its altitude and return
to its Home Point.
