Product Profile
This part is introduce the main features of the UPAIR 2 4k/3D Drone, the method for assembling the
Aircraft and lists of components of theAircraft and the Remote Control.
Introduction
The UPAIR 2 4K/3D Drone consists of the Aircraft, Remote Control, Gimbal Camera ,Light stream,and a
matching UPAIR APP. The flight controlsystemis integrated within the aircraft's fuselage, and the visual
positioning module/light stream and the removable gimbal are placed at the lower part of the fuselage.
You can control the camera's pitch by using the UPAIR App on the mobile device, and the low-latency HD
digital images transmission component is designed to transmit long-distance real-time images.
Main Features
The 4k/3D is equipped with a 3-axis stabilization gimbal, a 7 Bohr 110-degree micro-distortion camera,a
MN34120 main image sensor, a 16-megapixel camera capable of capturing 25-frame 4k HD video, and
two 3D cameras for capturing images with 3D effects. Insert a memory card with 3D images into the VR
glasses to experience the stereoscopic picture. The model has applied the newly-developed flight control
system, and added the new optical flow module and ultrasound module, which can make the aircraft
precisely hover indoor and bring you much more flight experience. 3km Wi-Fi image transmission and
3km Remote control distance，Real-time high-definition image and uplink and downlink data can be
displayedon the UPAIR2 APP device.
The UPAIR 2 4k/3D Drone is installed with the high-capacity lithium battery. Combined with the high
efficiency power system, its maximum duration of flight can achieve 24 minutes.

Auto Return Home(RTH)
The UPAIR 4K/3D aircraft features the Auto Return Home (RTH) function.When the controller loses
communication with the aircraft or the aircraft is at low power, the aircraft will automatically initiate the
Auto Return Home (RTH) function and fly back to its home point with automatic landing. There are three
available ways of returning: One-key RTH, Low-voltage RTH, Unsafe RTH.
GPS Description
Home
Point
more
than 11
Stars
Before the takeoff, when the GPS signal reaches more than11 stars for the
first time, it will be recorded as the return point of the aircraft's current
voyage.
* The RTH system does not support obstacles recognition, and you try the best to operate the aircraft in
an open field.
* There is a time difference insearching GPS signals according to user's location. The cold boot will cost
2 minutes or so, and the warm boot 30 seconds.
* During an auto-flight, like auto-return, auto-landing, or follow-up mode, etc., you can activate the flight
mode by using the flight mode joggle switch on the left of the remote control to avoid bad situation like
crashing into barriers, orfallinginto a river, etc.
One-Key RTH
5

By pushing the one-key RTH joggle switch on the controller backwards or starting it manually
through the UPAIR APP to trigger the one-key return, the aircraft will go back to you. If you want to regain
control during RTH, they can do so by just switching the mode.
Description of RTH Mechanism:
When the aircraft's current flight height is lower than 15m, it will firstly ascend to the height of 15m,
and then horizontally return to the home point, and descend; When the aircraft's current height is higher
than 15m, it will directly and horizontally return to the home point and descend.
Smart low-battery RTH：
UPAIR 2 adapts smart battery,when battery power is too low,it will return to the home point.
Losing communication RTH
When the GPS signal is normal, and the aircraft has automatically recorded the home point, if the
radio signal(the remote control's signal) is interrupted for more than 3 seconds, the flight control system
will take controlover the aircraft and make it return to the home point. If the radio signal recovers during
the RTH process, the aircraft will stop and hover. Then, you can take control over the aircraft again by
using the remote control.
Flight Data
4K/3DDrone is equipped with the “Black Box”, and allrelevant flight data will be recordedin the SD
card within the flight controlsystem.
Flight Mode
Position Hold: Use the GPS module or the Optical Flow Module to drive the aircraft's precise
hovering. Altitude Hold: When the GPS is invalid, or the signal is lost, the altitude hold mode can be
enabled to make the aircraft fly at a fixed altitude. Headless Mode: The aircraft will record the
6

direction of its head when it takes off, and after it enters this mode, no matter where the head points
at, the front direction is still the direction of the head when it takes off.
Propellers
4K/3D aircraft use 9450 propeller，the propellers feature black or silver-colored caps, each
representing a different direction of rotation.
1. Attaching the Propellers: Find the motors that have a hole, attaching the propellers with black
cap onto them and rotating tightly counter- clockwise. Attach the propellers with silver cap onto motors
without a hole and rotate them tightly clockwise.
2. Detaching the Propellers: Please hold the motor on one hand, then rotate the propeller in the
unlock direction to loosen it.
* Make sure that the black and silver propellers are installed on the right motors; otherwise, the
aircraft cannot take off normally. Please manually tighten the propellers, and tighten them firmly;
otherwise, anaccident may happen. Since the blade is thin, be careful notto get hurt
* Please use the original UPAIR propellers, the propellers must correspond to the exact aircraft
model.
* Propellers are easily consumed, if necessary, please purchase one additionally.
* Ensure the propellers are in good shape, tightly attached before flight. Deformed or broken
propellers should be replaced.
* Maintain a safe distance once the motors and the propellers start spinning in order to avoid any
injury.
