1. DO NOT fly in severe weather conditions such as strong winds, snow, rain, and fog.

2. Only fly in open areas. Tall buildings and large metal structures may affect the accuracy of the onboard compass and GNSS system. After takeoff, make sure you are notified with the voice prompt that the Home Point is updated before continuing flight. If the aircraft has taken off near buildings, the accuracy of the Home Point cannot be guaranteed. In this case, pay close attention to the current position of the aircraft during auto RTH. When the aircraft is close to the Home Point, it is recommended to cancel auto RTH and manually control the aircraft to land at an appropriate location.

3. Fly the aircraft within visual line of sight (VLOS). Avoid mountains and trees blocking GNSS signals. Any flight beyond visual line of sight (BVLOS) can be conducted only when the aircraft performance, the knowledge and skills of the pilot, and the operational safety management are compliant with local regulations for BVLOS. Avoid obstacles, crowds, trees, and bodies of water. For safety reasons, DO NOT fly the aircraft near airports, highways, railway stations, railway lines, city centers, or other sensitive areas, unless any permit or approval is obtained under local regulations.

4. When the GNSS signal is weak, fly the aircraft in environments with good lighting and visibility. The vision system may not work properly in poor light conditions.

5. Minimize interference by avoiding areas with high levels of electromagnetism, such as locations near power lines, base stations, electrical substations, and broadcasting towers.

6. The performance of the aircraft and its battery is limited when flying at high altitudes. Fly with caution. DO NOT fly above the specified altitude.

7. The braking distance of the aircraft is affected by the flight altitude. The higher the altitude, the greater the braking distance. When flying at high altitudes, you should reserve adequate braking distance to ensure flight safety.

8. GNSS cannot be used on the aircraft in polar regions. Use the vision system instead.

9. DO NOT take off from moving objects such as cars, ships, and airplanes.

3. If the Downward Vision System is working normally, Landing Protection will be enabled.

4. Motors will stop automatically after landing.

Choose an appropriate place for landing.

Perform one of the Combination Stick Commands (CSC) as shown below to start the motors. Once the motors have started spinning, release both sticks simultaneously.

Method 1: When the aircraft has landed, push the throttle stick down and hold until the motors stop.

Method 2: When the aircraft has landed, perform one of the Combination Stick Commands (CSC) as shown in the diagram until the motors stop.

Stopping the motors mid-flight will cause the aircraft to crash.

The default setting for Emergency Propeller Stop in the DJI Fly app is Emergency Only, which means that the motors can only be stopped mid-flight when the aircraft detects that it is in an emergency situation such as the aircraft is involved in a collision, a motor has stalled, the aircraft is rolling in the air, or the aircraft is out of control and is ascending or descending very quickly. To stop the motors mid-flight, perform the same CSC that was used to start the motors. Note that you need to hold the control sticks for two seconds while performing the CSC to stop the motors. Emergency Propeller Stop can be changed to Anytime in the app. Use this option with caution.

The control sticks of the remote controller can be used to control the aircraft movements. The control sticks can be operated in Mode 1, Mode 2, or Mode 3. The default control mode of the remote controller is Mode 2. The more the stick is pushed away from the center, the faster the aircraft moves.

DO NOT launch the aircraft from your palm or while holding it with your hand.

DO NOT operate the aircraft when the lighting is too bright or too dark to use the remote controller to monitor flight. You are responsible for the correct adjustment of display brightness and amount of direct sunlight on the screen, as to avoid difficulty in viewing the screen clearly.

1. Select the desired gimbal operation mode in DJI Fly.

2. It is recommended to take photos or record videos when flying in Normal or Cine mode.

3. DO NOT fly in bad weather such as on rainy or windy days.

4. Choose the camera settings that best suit your needs.

5. Perform flight tests to establish flight routes and preview scenes.

6. Push the control sticks gently to ensure smooth and stable movement of the aircraft.

FocusTrack includes Spotlight, Point of Interest (POI), and ActiveTrack.

Spotlight enables the gimbal camera to face toward the subject all the time while you manually control the flight. When the vision system is working normally, the aircraft will bypass or brake if an obstacle is detected, according to the obstacle avoidance action is set to Bypass or Brake in DJI Fly. Note: obstacle avoidance is disabled in Sport mode. Supported subjects include stationary subjects and moving subjects (only vehicles, boats, and people).

Point of Interest (POI) allows the aircraft to fly around the subject. The aircraft will bypass obstacles regardless of the flight modes or obstacle avoidance action settings in DJI Fly when the vision systems are working normally. Supported subjects include stationary subjects and moving subjects (only vehicles, boats, and people).

ActiveTrack allows the aircraft to follow the subject in the following sub-modes:

Auto: The aircraft continuously plans and adjusts the flight path based on the flying environment, automatically completing complex camera movements.

Manual: The aircraft is manually controlled to fly along a specified trajectory.

In ActiveTrack, the aircraft will bypass obstacles regardless of the flight modes or obstacle avoidance action settings in DJI Fly when the vision systems are working normally. Moving subjects (only vehicles, boats, and people) are supported. Auto mode only supports vehicles and people.

The aircraft will fly to the supported distance and altitude range if the distance and altitude is out of range when ActiveTrack begins. Fly the aircraft at the optimal distance and altitude for the optimal tracking performance.

It is recommended that the speed of the dynamic subject should not exceed 12 m/s; otherwise, the aircraft will not be able to track properly.

The aircraft cannot avoid moving subjects such as people, animals, or vehicles. When using FocusTrack, pay attention to the surrounding environment to ensure flight safety.

DO NOT use FocusTrack in areas with small or fine objects (e.g., tree branches or power lines), transparent objects (e.g., water or glass), or monochrome surfaces (e.g., white walls).

Always be prepared to press the Flight Pause button on the remote controller or tap Stop in DJI Fly in order to operate the aircraft manually in case any emergency situation occurs.

Be extra vigilant when using FocusTrack in any of the following situations:

• The tracked subject is not moving on a level plane.
• The tracked subject changes shape drastically while moving.
• The tracked subject is out of sight for an extended period.
• The tracked subject is in large monochrome areas such as snow-covered areas or deserts.
• The tracked subject has a similar color or pattern to its surrounding environment.
• The lighting is extremely dark (<5 lux) or bright (>10,000 lux).

It is recommended to only track vehicles, boats, and people (but not children). Fly with caution when tracking other subjects.

For the supported moving subjects, vehicles refer to cars and small to medium-sized boats. DO NOT track a remote controlled car or boat.

The tracking subject may be inadvertently swapped to another subject if they pass nearby each other.

Before enabling FocusTrack, make sure the flying environment is open and unobstructed with sufficient light.

Tap the FocusTrack icon on the left of the camera view, or select the subject on the screen to enable FocusTrack. After enabling, tap the FocusTrack icon again to exit.

During use, press the Flight Pause button on the remote controller to cancel the subject selection.

The aircraft will select a preset flight route based on the subject type and distance, and automatically take a variety of classic aerial photography shots.

Use MasterShots at locations that are clear of buildings and other obstacles. Make sure there are no people, animals, or other obstacles in the flight path.

Always pay attention to obstacles around the aircraft and use the remote controller to avoid collisions or the aircraft being obstructed.

DO NOT use MasterShots in any of the following situations:

• When the subject is blocked for an extended period of time or outside the visual line of sight.
• When the subject is in large monochrome areas such as snow-covered areas or deserts.
• When the subject is similar in color or pattern with the surroundings.
• When the subject is in the air.
• When the subject is moving fast.
• The lighting is extremely dark (<5 lux) or bright (>10,000 lux).

DO NOT use MasterShots in places close to buildings or where the GNSS signal is weak. Otherwise, the flight path may become unstable.

Make sure to follow local privacy laws and regulations when using MasterShots.

1. Tap the Shooting Mode icon on the right side of the camera view and select MasterShots.

2. After drag-selecting the subject and adjusting the shooting area, tap the record button to begin recording and the aircraft will start flying and recording automatically. The aircraft will fly back to its original position once recording is finished.

3. Tap the stop icon or press the Flight Pause button on the remote controller once. The aircraft will exit MasterShots immediately and hover.

QuickShots include multiple shooting modes. The aircraft automatically records according to the selected shooting mode and generates a short video.

Make sure there is sufficient space when using Boomerang. Allow a radius of at least 30 m (99 ft) around the aircraft and a space of at least 10 m (33 ft) above the aircraft.

Make sure there is sufficient space when using Asteroid. Allow at least 40 m (131 ft) behind and 50 m (164 ft) above the aircraft.

Use QuickShots at locations that are clear of buildings and other obstacles. Make sure there are no people, animals, or other obstacles in the flight path.

Always pay attention to objects around the aircraft and use the remote controller to avoid collisions or the aircraft being obstructed.

DO NOT use QuickShots in any of the following situations:

• When the subject is blocked for an extended period of time or outside the visual line of sight.
• When the subject is in large monochrome areas such as snow-covered areas or deserts.
• When the subject is similar in color or pattern with the surroundings.
• When the subject is in the air.
• When the subject is moving fast.

The lighting is extremely dark (<5 lux) or bright (>10,000 lux).

DO NOT use QuickShots in places close to buildings or where the GNSS signal is weak. Otherwise, the flight path will become unstable.

Make sure to follow local privacy laws and regulations when using QuickShots.

1. Tap the Shooting Mode icon on the right side of the camera view and select QuickShots.

2. After selecting one sub-mode, tap the plus icon or drag-select the subject on the screen. Then tap the start button to begin shooting. The aircraft will record footage while performing a preset flight movement according to the option selected, and generate a video afterwards. The aircraft will fly back to its original position once recording is finished.

3. Tap the stop icon or press the Flight Pause button on the remote controller once. The aircraft will exit QuickShots immediately and hover.

Hyperlapse takes a certain number of photos according to the time interval, and then compiles these photos into a video of a few seconds. It is especially suitable for recording scenes with moving elements, such as traffic flow, clouds drifting, and sunrises and sunsets.

1. Tap the Shooting Modes icon from the camera view and select Hyperlapse.

2. Select the Hyperlapse mode. After setting the related parameters, tap the shutter/record button to begin the process.

3. Tap the stop button or press the Stop button on the remote controller, the aircraft will exit Hyperlapse and hover.

With Waypoint Flight, you can set waypoints for different shooting locations in advance, and then generate a flight route based on the set waypoints. The aircraft will then fly automatically along the preset route and complete the preset camera actions. The flight routes can be saved and repeated at different times to capture the changes over seasons and day-to-night effect.

Before enabling the Waypoint Flight mode, tap Settings > Safety > Obstacle Avoidance Action to check the obstacle avoidance action. After setting the obstacle avoidance action to Bypass or Brake, the aircraft will brake if it detects obstacles during the waypoint flight. If set to Off, the aircraft cannot avoid obstacles.

The flight route will curve between waypoints, so the aircraft altitude between waypoints may become lower than the altitudes of the waypoints during the flight. Make sure to avoid any obstacles below when setting a waypoint.

If Camera Action is set to None, the aircraft will only automatically fly. You need to manually control the camera during the flight.

If you have already set Heading and Gimbal Tilt to Face POI, then the POI will automatically be linked to these waypoints.

1. Tap the Waypoint Flight icon on the left of the camera view to enable Waypoint Flight.

2. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the settings and perform the flight route.

3. Tap the Waypoint Flight icon again to exit waypoint flight and the flight route will be saved to the Library automatically.

Cruise Control enables the flight speed and gimbal rotation speed to be locked, making control easier and camera movements smoother. More camera movements, such as spiraling up and gimbal rotation, can be achieved by increasing control stick input and dial input.

The obstacle sensing in cruise control follows the current flight mode. Fly with caution.

1. Set one customizable button of the remote controller to Cruise Control.

2. When pushing the control sticks, press the cruise control button, and the aircraft will automatically fly at the current speed.

3. When turning the dial of the remote controller to adjust the gimbal angle, press the cruise control button, and the gimbal will automatically rotate at the current rotation speed in the corresponding direction.

It is recommended to set the right dial to gimbal roll.

The gimbal rotation will stop when the gimbal reaches its movement limit.

During gimbal rotation, if you adjust the gimbal angle, the gimbal will perform the corresponding adjustment and then continue rotating.

4. Press Flight Pause button on the remote controller once, or tap the stop icon to exit cruise control.

The aircraft supports the following flight modes, which can be switched via the Flight Mode switch on the remote controller:

Normal Mode: Suitable for most flight scenarios. The aircraft can hover precisely, fly stably, and use Intelligent Flight Modes.

Sport Mode: The maximum horizontal flight speed of the aircraft will be higher when compared with Normal mode. Note that obstacle sensing is disabled in Sport mode.

Cine Mode: Based on Normal mode with a limited flight speed, making the aircraft more stable during recording.

If the aircraft is flying in the EU, the aircraft will switch to Low Speed mode when the flight mode is switched to C on the remote controller. Low Speed mode limits the maximum horizontal flight speed to 2.8 m/s based on Normal mode, and there is no limit for the ascent or descent speed.

The aircraft automatically changes to Attitude (ATTI) mode when the vision system is unavailable or disabled and the GNSS signal is weak or the compass experiences interference. In ATTI mode, the aircraft may be more easily affected by its surroundings. Environmental factors such as wind can result in horizontal drift of the aircraft, which may present hazards, especially when flying in confined spaces. The aircraft will not be able to hover or brake automatically, therefore the pilot should land the aircraft as soon as possible to avoid accidents.

The flight modes are only effective for manual flight and cruise control.

The vision system is disabled in Sport mode, which means the aircraft cannot sense obstacles on its route automatically. You must stay alert to the surrounding environment and control the aircraft to avoid obstacles.

The maximum speed and braking distance of the aircraft significantly increase in Sport mode. A minimum braking distance of 30 m is required in windless conditions.

A minimum braking distance of 10 m is required in windless conditions while the aircraft is ascending and descending in Sport mode or Normal mode.

The responsiveness of the aircraft significantly increases in Sport mode, which means a small control stick movement on the remote controller translates into the aircraft moving a large distance. Make sure to maintain adequate maneuvering space during flight.

You may experience shaking in videos recorded in Sport mode.

When the aircraft is powered on but the motors are not running, the front LEDs glow solid green to display the orientation of the aircraft.

When the aircraft is powered on but the motors are not running, the aircraft status indicators will display the current status of the aircraft.

Normal States:

Warning States:

After the motors start, the front LEDs blink green, and the aircraft status indicators blink red and green alternately. The green lights indicate the aircraft is a UAV, and the green and red lights indicate the heading and position of the aircraft.

The Return to Home (RTH) function will automatically fly the aircraft back to the last recorded Home Point. RTH can be triggered in three ways: the user actively triggers RTH, the aircraft has low battery, or the remote controller signal has been lost (Failsafe RTH is triggered). If the aircraft has recorded the Home Point successfully and the positioning system is functioning normally, when the RTH function is triggered, the aircraft will automatically fly back and land at the Home Point.

Home Point: The Home Point will be recorded at takeoff as long as the aircraft has a strong GNSS signal or the lighting is sufficient. After the Home Point is recorded, DJI Fly will issue a voice prompt. If it is necessary to update the Home Point during a flight (such as if you have changed your position), the Home Point can be manually updated in Settings > Safety page in DJI Fly.

During RTH, the AR RTH route will be displayed on the camera view, helping you to view the return path and ensure flight safety. The camera view also displays the AR Home Point. When the aircraft reaches the area above the Home Point, the gimbal camera will automatically flip downwards. The AR aircraft shadow will appear in the camera view when the aircraft is approaching the ground, enabling you to control the aircraft to land more accurately in your preferred location.

The AR RTH route is only used for reference, and may deviate from the actual flight route in different scenarios. Always pay attention to the liveview on the screen during RTH. Fly with caution.

During RTH, the aircraft will automatically adjust the gimbal tilt to point the camera toward the RTH route by default. Using the gimbal dial to adjust the camera orientation or pressing the customizable buttons on the remote controller to recenter the camera will stop the aircraft from automatically adjusting the gimbal tilt, which may prevent the AR RTH route from being viewed.

The aircraft may not be able to return to the Home Point as normal if the positioning system is functioning abnormally. During Failsafe RTH, the aircraft may enter ATTI mode and land automatically if the positioning system is functioning abnormally.

When there is no GNSS, do not fly over water surfaces, buildings with glass surface, or in scenarios where the altitude above the ground is greater than 30 meters. If the positioning system is functioning abnormally, the aircraft will enter ATTI mode.

It is important to set a suitable RTH altitude before each flight. Launch DJI Fly and set the RTH altitude.

The aircraft cannot sense obstacles during RTH if the environment conditions are not suitable for the sensing system.

GEO zones may affect the RTH. Avoid flying near GEO zones.

The aircraft may not be able to return to a Home Point if the wind speed is too high. Fly with caution.

Pay extra attention to small or fine objects (such as tree branches or power lines) or transparent objects (such as water or glass) during RTH. Exit RTH and control the aircraft manually in an emergency.

Set Advanced RTH as Preset if there are power lines or transmission towers that the aircraft cannot bypass on the RTH path and make sure the RTH Altitude is set higher than all obstacles.

The aircraft will brake and return to home according to the latest settings if the Advanced RTH settings in DJI Fly are changed during RTH.

If the max altitude is adjusted below the current altitude during RTH, the aircraft will descend to the max altitude first and then continue returning to home.

The RTH Altitude cannot be changed during RTH.

If there is a large difference between the current altitude and the RTH altitude, the amount of battery power used cannot be calculated accurately due to wind speed differences at different altitudes. Pay extra attention to the battery power prompts and warning prompts in DJI Fly.

If the Home Point is within the Altitude Zone but the aircraft is not in the Altitude Zone, when the aircraft reaches the Altitude Zone it will descend below the altitude limit, which may be lower than the set RTH altitude. Fly with caution.

The aircraft will exit RTH if the surrounding environment is too complex to complete RTH, even if the sensing system is working properly.

RTH cannot be triggered during auto landing.

The user actively triggers RTH: During flight, you can trigger RTH by pressing and holding the RTH button on the remote controller, or tapping the RTH icon from the left side of the camera view and then pressing and holding the RTH icon.

If the remote controller signal is lost during RTH, the aircraft will continue the RTH procedure regardless of the preset Signal Lost Action.

Aircraft low battery: During flight, if the battery level is low and only sufficient to fly to the Home Point, a warning prompt will appear in DJI Fly. If you tap to confirm RTH or do not take action before the countdown ends, the aircraft will automatically initiate low battery RTH.

If you cancel the low battery RTH prompt and continue flying the aircraft, the aircraft will land automatically when the current battery level can only support the aircraft long enough to descend from its current altitude.

Auto landing cannot be cancelled but you can still fly the aircraft horizontally by moving the pitch stick and roll stick, and change the descent speed of the aircraft by moving the throttle stick. Fly the aircraft to a suitable place for landing as soon as possible.

Loss of remote controller signal: When the remote controller signal is lost, the aircraft will automatically initiate Failsafe RTH if the Signal Lost Action is set to RTH. The action can also be set to Hover or Landing.

When the lighting and environment conditions are suitable for the vision system, DJI Fly will display the RTH path that was generated by the aircraft before the signal was lost. The aircraft will start RTH using Advanced RTH according to the RTH settings. The aircraft will remain in RTH even if the remote controller signal is restored. DJI Fly will update the RTH path accordingly.

When the lighting and environment conditions are unsuitable for the vision system, the aircraft will brake and hover, then enter Original Route RTH.

RTH settings are available for Advanced RTH. Go to the camera view in DJI Fly, tap Settings > Safety, and scroll to Return to Home (RTH).

Optimal RTH: If the lighting is sufficient and the environment is suitable for the vision system, the aircraft will automatically plan the optimal RTH path and adjust the altitude according to environmental factors, such as obstacles and transmission signals, regardless of the RTH Altitude setting. The optimal RTH path means the aircraft will travel the shortest distance possible to reduce the amount of battery power used and to increase flight time.

If the lighting is insufficient or the environment is not suitable for the vision system, the aircraft will perform Preset RTH based on the RTH Altitude setting.

Preset RTH:

When the aircraft is approaching the Home Point, if the current altitude is higher than the RTH altitude, the aircraft will intelligently decide whether to descend while flying forward according to the surrounding environment, lighting, the set RTH altitude, and the current altitude. When the aircraft reaches the area above the Home Point, the current altitude of the aircraft will not be lower than the set RTH altitude.

If Obstacle Avoidance Action is set to Bypass or Brake, Landing Protection will be activated when you push the throttle stick down to land the aircraft. Landing Protection is enabled once the aircraft begins to land.

The specific performance of the aircraft is as follows:

• If the ground is determined suitable for landing, the aircraft will land directly.
• If the ground is determined unsuitable for landing, the aircraft will hover and wait for pilot confirmation.
• If landing protection is not operational, DJI Fly will display a landing prompt when the aircraft descends to 0.5 m from the ground. Tap Confirm or push the throttle stick all the way down and hold for one second, and the aircraft will land.

After reaching the area above the Home Point, the aircraft will land precisely on the takeoff point. Performing a precision landing is subject to the following conditions:

• The Home Point must be recorded upon takeoff and must not be changed during flight.
• During takeoff, the aircraft must vertically ascend at least 7 m before moving horizontally.
• The Home Point terrain features must remain largely unchanged.
• The terrain features of the Home Point must be sufficiently distinctive. Terrain such as a snow-covered field is not suitable.
• The lighting conditions must not be too bright or too dark.

During landing, movement of any other control stick apart from the throttle stick will be regarded as giving up precision landing, and the aircraft will descend vertically.

When the aircraft is used with the DJI RC Pro 2 remote controller, Dynamic Home Point is available. When the GNSS signal of the remote controller is strong, enable Dynamic Home Point through any of the following methods, and the Home Point will be continuously updated to the remote controller location:

• In camera view, tap the Home Point icon > Update Home Point > Dynamic Home Point > Update.
• In camera view, tap Settings > Safety > Update Home Point > Dynamic Home Point > Update.

When Dynamic Home Point is enabled, the RTH icon will turn blue. After RTH is triggered, the aircraft will return near the Home Point, exit RTH, and hover. Users can control the aircraft.

After enabling Dynamic Home Point for the first time, if the GNSS signal of the remote controller is weak, the dynamic Home Point may not be available.

Use the Dynamic Home Point function in an open environment with a strong GNSS signal. Otherwise, the Home Point will have a large deviation from the actual remote controller location.

Once the dynamic Home Point is available, if the GNSS signal of the remote controller is weak, the Home Point will remain at the last successfully updated location. When RTH is triggered, check if the Home Point location is the latest remote controller location.

The omnidirectional vision system works best with adequate lighting and clearly marked or textured obstacles. The omnidirectional vision system will activate automatically when the aircraft is in Normal or Cine mode and Obstacle Avoidance Action is set to Bypass or Brake in DJI Fly. The positioning function is applicable when GNSS signals are unavailable or weak.

The auxiliary light located at the bottom of the aircraft can assist the downward vision system. It will automatically turn on by default in low-light environments when the flight altitude is under 5 m after takeoff. You can also turn it on or off manually in the DJI Fly app. Each time the aircraft is restarted, the auxiliary light will revert back to the default setting Auto.

When Vision Positioning and Obstacle Sensing are disabled, the aircraft relies only on GNSS to hover, omnidirectional obstacle sensing is unavailable, and the aircraft will not automatically decelerate during descent close to the ground. Extra caution is required when Vision Positioning and Obstacle Sensing are disabled.

Disabling Vision Positioning and Obstacle Sensing takes effect only when flying manually, and will not take effect when using RTH, auto landing, or using Intelligent Flight Modes.

Vision Positioning and Obstacle Sensing can be temporarily disabled in clouds and fog or when an obstacle is detected when landing. Keep Vision Positioning and Obstacle Sensing enabled in regular flight scenarios. Vision Positioning and Obstacle Sensing are enabled by default after restarting the aircraft.

Pay attention to the flight environment. The sensing system only works in certain scenarios and cannot replace human control and judgment. During a flight, always pay attention to the surrounding environment and the warnings in DJI Fly, and be responsible for and maintain control of the aircraft at all times.

If there is no GNSS available, the downward vision system will assist with aircraft positioning, and works best when the aircraft is at an altitude from 0.5 m to 30 m. Extra caution is required if the altitude of the aircraft is above 30 m as the vision positioning performance may be affected.

In low-light environments, the vision system may not achieve optimal positioning performance even if the auxiliary light is turned on. Fly with caution if the GNSS signal is weak in such environments.

The downward vision system may not work properly when the aircraft is flying near water. Therefore, the aircraft may not be able to actively avoid water below it when landing. It is recommended to maintain flight control at all times, make reasonable judgments based on the surrounding environment, and avoid over-relying on the downward vision system.

The vision system cannot accurately identify large structures with frames and cables, such as tower cranes, high-voltage transmission towers, high-voltage transmission lines, cable-stayed bridges, and suspension bridges.

The vision system cannot work properly near surfaces without clear pattern variations or where the lighting is too weak or too strong. The vision system cannot work properly in the following situations:

• Flying near monochrome surfaces (e.g., pure black, white, red, or green).
• Flying near highly reflective surfaces.
• Flying near water or transparent surfaces.
• Flying near moving surfaces or objects.
• Flying in an area with frequent and drastic lighting changes.
• Flying near extremely dark (<0.1 lux) or bright (>40,000 lux) surfaces.
• Flying near surfaces that strongly reflect or absorb infrared waves (e.g., mirrors).
• Flying near surfaces without clear patterns or textures.
• Flying near surfaces with repeating identical patterns or textures (e.g., tiles with the same design).
• Flying near obstacles with small surface areas (e.g., tree branches, and power lines).

Keep the sensors clean at all times. DO NOT scratch or tamper with the sensors. DO NOT use the aircraft in dusty or humid environments.

The vision system cameras may need to be calibrated after being stored for an extended period. A prompt will appear in DJI Fly and calibration will be performed automatically.

DO NOT fly when it is rainy, smoggy, or the visibility is lower than 100 m.

DO NOT obstruct the sensing system.

Check the following each time before takeoff:

• Make sure there are no stickers or any other obstructions over the glass of the sensing system.
• Use a soft cloth if there is any dirt, dust, or water on the glass of the sensing system. DO NOT use any cleaning product that contains alcohol.
• Contact DJI Support if there is any damage to the lenses of the sensing system.

The aircraft can fly at any time of the day or night. However, the vision system becomes unavailable when flying the aircraft at night. Fly with caution.

The forward-facing LiDAR cannot detect obstacles with a reflectivity of less than 10% or reflective objects such as glass.

The forward-facing LiDAR cannot work properly in environments with too strong lighting (>20,000 lux).

The Advanced Pilot Assistance Systems (APAS) feature is available in Normal mode and Cine mode. When APAS is enabled, the aircraft will continue to respond to your commands and plan its path according to both control stick inputs and the flight environment. APAS makes it easier to avoid obstacles, obtain smoother footage, and give a better flying experience.

When APAS is enabled, the aircraft can be stopped by pressing the Flight Pause button on the remote controller. The aircraft brakes and hovers for three seconds and awaits further pilot commands.

To enable APAS, open DJI Fly, go to Settings > Safety > Obstacle Avoidance Action, and select Bypass. Set Bypassing Options to Normal or Nifty. In Nifty mode, the aircraft can fly faster, smoother, and closer to obstacles obtaining better footage while bypassing obstacles. However, the risk of crashing into obstacles will increase. Fly with caution.

Nifty mode cannot work normally in the following situations:

• When aircraft orientation changes rapidly flying near obstacles.
• When flying through narrow obstacles such as canopies or bushes at high speed.
• When flying near obstacles that are too small to detect.
• When flying with the propeller guard.

Make sure to use APAS when the vision system is available. Make sure there are no people, animals, objects with small surface areas (e.g., tree branches), or transparent objects (e.g., glass or water) along the desired flight path.

Make sure to use APAS when the downward vision system is available or the GNSS signal is strong. APAS may not function properly when the aircraft is flying over water or snow-covered areas.

Be extra cautious when flying in extremely dark (<5 lux) or bright (>10,000 lux) environments.

Pay attention to DJI Fly and make sure APAS is working normally.

APAS may not function properly when the aircraft is flying near flight limits or in a GEO zone.

When the lighting becomes insufficient and the vision system is partially unavailable, the aircraft will switch from bypassing obstacles to braking and hovering. You need to center the control stick and then to continue controlling the aircraft.

If Obstacle Avoidance Action is set to Bypass or Brake, Landing Protection will be activated when you push the throttle stick down to land the aircraft. Landing Protection is enabled once the aircraft begins to land.

If the ground is determined to be suitable for landing, the aircraft will land directly.

If the ground is determined to be unsuitable for landing, the aircraft will hover when the aircraft descends to a certain height above ground. Push down on the throttle stick for at least five seconds, and the aircraft will land without obstacle sensing.

The vision assist view, powered by the vision systems, changes the image on the view from the corresponding vision sensors according to the flight speed direction to help users navigate and observe obstacles during flight. Swipe left on the attitude indicator, right on the mini map, or tap the icon in the lower right corner of the attitude indicator to switch to the vision assist view.

The direction of the line indicates the current flight speed direction of the aircraft, and the length of the line indicates the flight speed of the aircraft.

When using vision assist, the quality of the video transmission may be lower due to transmission bandwidth limits, cell phone performance, or the video transmission resolution of the screen on the remote controller.

It is normal for components of the aircraft to appear in the vision assist view.

It is normal that image seams or brightness differences may occur in the vision assist view.

Vision assist should be used for reference only. Glass walls and small objects such as tree branches, electric wires, and kite strings cannot be displayed accurately.

Vision assist is not available when the aircraft has not taken off or when the video transmission signal is weak.

When the direction is not locked in a specific direction, the vision assist view automatically switches to the current flight direction. Tap any other directional arrow to switch the direction of the vision assist view for a while before returning to the view of the current flight direction.

When the vision assist direction is locked in a specific direction, tap any other arrow to switch the vision assist view for a while before returning to the currently locked direction.

When an obstacle in the current view direction is detected, the vision assist view shows a collision warning. The color of the warning is determined by the distance between the obstacle and the aircraft. Yellow and red colors indicate the relative distance ranging from far to near.

The FOV of the vision assist in all directions is limited. It is normal not to see obstacles in the field of view during a collision warning.

The collision warning is not controlled by the Display Radar Map switch and remains visible even when the radar map is switched off.

A collision warning appears only when the vision assist view is displayed in the small window.

Install the propellers correctly according to the color marks on the propellers and motors.

The propeller blades are sharp. Handle with care to avoid personal injury or propeller deformation.

Make sure that the propellers and motors are installed securely before each flight.

Only use official DJI propellers. DO NOT mix propeller types.

Propellers are consumable components. Purchase additional propellers if necessary.

Make sure that all propellers are in good condition before each flight. DO NOT use aged, chipped, or broken propellers. Clean the propellers with a soft, dry cloth if there is any foreign matter attached.

To avoid injury, stay away from rotating propellers or motors.

To avoid damaging the propellers, place the aircraft correctly during transportation or storage. DO NOT squeeze or bend the propellers. If propellers are damaged, the flight performance may be affected.

Make sure the motors are mounted securely and rotating smoothly. Land the aircraft immediately if a motor is stuck and unable to rotate freely.

DO NOT attempt to modify the structure of the motors.

DO NOT touch or let hands or body parts come in contact with the motors after flight, as they may be hot. It is normal for the front motors to have a higher temperature than the rear motors.

DO NOT block any of the ventilation holes on the motors or the body of the aircraft.

Make sure the ESCs sound normal when powered on.

Read and strictly follow the instructions in this manual, in the Safety Guidelines and on the battery stickers before using the battery. You shall take full responsibility for all operations and usage.

DO NOT charge an Intelligent Flight Battery immediately after flight as it may be too hot. Wait for the battery to cool down to the allowable charging temperature before charging again.

To prevent damage, the battery only charges when the battery temperature is between 5° and 40° C (41° and 104° F). The ideal charging temperature is from 22° to 28° C (71.6° to 82.4° F). Charging at the ideal temperature range can prolong battery life. Charging stops automatically if the temperature of the battery cells exceed 55° C (131° F) during charging.

Low-Temperature Notice:

• Batteries cannot be used in extremely low-temperature environments of lower than -10° C (14° F).
• Battery capacity is significantly reduced when flying at low temperatures from -10° to 5° C (14° to 41° F). Make sure to fully charge the battery before takeoff. Hover the aircraft in place for a while to warm up the battery after takeoff.
• It is recommended to warm up the battery to at least 10° C (50° F) before takeoff when flying in low-temperature environments. The ideal temperature to warm up the battery is above 20° C (68° F).
• The reduced battery capacity in low-temperature environments reduces the wind speed resistance performance of the aircraft. Fly with caution.

Take extra caution when flying at a high elevation with a low temperature.

A fully charged battery will automatically discharge when it is idle for a period of time. Note that it is normal for the battery to emit heat during the discharging process.

Fully charge the battery at least once every three months to maintain battery health. If the battery is not used for an extended period, battery performance may be affected or may even cause permanent battery damage. If a battery has not been charged or discharged for three months or more, the battery will no longer be covered by the warranty.

For safety purposes, keep the batteries at a low power level in transit. Before transportation, it is recommended to discharge the batteries to 30% or lower.

Make sure to unfold the front aircraft arms before inserting or removing the battery to avoid damaging the forward-facing LiDAR.

DO NOT insert or remove the battery while the aircraft is powered on.

Make sure the battery is mounted securely with a clicking sound. DO NOT launch the aircraft when the battery is not securely mounted, as this may cause poor contact between the battery and the aircraft and present hazards.

Press the power button once to check the current battery level.

The battery level LEDs display the power level of the battery during charging and discharging. The statuses of the LEDs are defined below:

• LED is on
• LED is flashing
• LED is off

Battery Level LEDs Blinking Pattern to Battery Level:

Press, then press and hold the power button to power the aircraft on or off. The battery level LEDs display the battery level when the aircraft is powered on. The battery level LEDs turn off when the aircraft is powered off.

Fully charge the battery before each use. It is recommended to use the charging devices provided by DJI or other chargers that support the USB PD fast charging protocol.

The battery cannot be charged if the device is powered on.

Battery level during charging:

The blinking frequency of the battery level LEDs differs depending on the USB charger used. If the charging speed is fast, the battery level LEDs will blink quickly.

Four LEDs blinking simultaneously indicates the battery is damaged.

Using DJI MAVIC 240W Power Adapter: Connect the Mini SDC port on the charging hub to a power outlet to charge three batteries simultaneously. The charging hub first charges the battery with a low battery level to the same level as other batteries and then fully charges the three batteries simultaneously.

Using DJI 100W USB-C Power Adapter and other USB-C chargers: Connect the USB-C port on the charging hub to a power outlet. The Intelligent Flight Battery with the highest power level will be charged first, and then the rest will be charged in sequence according to their power levels.

When using DJI Mavic 240W Power Adapter, the charging hub can also charge other devices connected to the USB-C port simultaneously. In this case, the charging time of the Intelligent Flight Batteries will increase.

The environmental temperature affects the charging speed. Charging is faster in a well-ventilated environment at 25° C (77° F).

The charging hub is only compatible with specific model of the Intelligent Flight Battery. DO NOT use the charging hub with other battery models.

Place the charging hub on a flat and stable surface when in use. Make sure the device is properly insulated to prevent fire hazards.

DO NOT touch the metal terminals on the battery ports.

Clean the metal terminals with a clean, dry cloth if there is any noticeable buildup.

1. Insert one or more batteries into the charging hub. Connect an external device via the USB-C port, such as a mobile phone or remote controller.

2. Press the function button, and the status LED of the charging hub turns solid green. The battery with the lowest power level will be discharged first, followed by the remaining batteries to be discharged sequentially. To stop charging the external device, disconnect the external device from the charging hub.

If the remaining charge of a battery is lower than 5%, the battery cannot charge the external device.

To switch to charging Intelligent Flight Batteries, reconnect the USB-C cable.

1. Insert more than one battery into the charging hub, and press and hold the function button until the status LED turns green. The status LED of the charging hub pulses green, and the charge is transferred from the battery with the lowest power level to the battery with the highest power level.

2. To stop accumulating power, press and hold the function button until the status LED turns yellow. After stopping power accumulation, press the function button to check the power level of the batteries.

Power accumulation stops automatically in the following situations:

• The receiving battery is fully charged, or the power of the output battery is lower than 5%.
• A charger or external device is connected to the charging hub during power accumulation.
• Power accumulation is interrupted for more than 15 minutes due to abnormal battery temperature.

After accumulating power, charge the battery with the lowest power level as soon as possible to avoid discharge.

The battery level LEDs can display battery protection notifications triggered by abnormal charging conditions:

If any of the battery protection mechanisms are activated, unplug the charger, and plug it in again to resume charging. If the charging temperature is abnormal, wait for it to return to normal. The battery will automatically resume charging without the need to unplug and plug in the charger again.

Make sure there are no stickers or objects on the gimbal before taking off. DO NOT tap or knock the gimbal after the aircraft is powered on. Launch the aircraft from open and flat ground to protect the gimbal.

Remove the storage cover before powering on the aircraft. Attach the storage cover when the aircraft is not in use.

Precision elements in the gimbal may be damaged by a collision or impact, which may cause the gimbal to function abnormally.

Avoid getting dust or sand on the gimbal, especially in the gimbal motors.

A gimbal motor may enter protection mode if the gimbal is obstructed by other objects when the aircraft is put on uneven ground or on grass, or if the gimbal experiences an excessive external force, such as during a collision. Wait for the gimbal to return to normal or restart the device.

DO NOT apply external force to the gimbal after the aircraft is powered on.

DO NOT add any extra payload other than an official accessory to the gimbal, as this may cause the gimbal to function abnormally or even lead to permanent motor damage.

Flying in heavy fog or clouds may make the gimbal wet, leading to temporary failure. The gimbal will recover full functionality once it is dry.

If there are strong winds, the gimbal may vibrate while recording.

If the gimbal tilt angle is large during flight, and the aircraft tilts forward due to acceleration or deceleration, the gimbal will enter limit protection mode and automatically adjust the angle downward.

After powering on, if the aircraft is not placed flat for an extended period or if the it is significantly shaken, the gimbal may stop working and enter protection mode. In this case, place the aircraft flat and wait for it to recover.

DO NOT point the front of the gimbal toward the ground or sharp objects to avoid damage.

When using the gimbal tilt or roll rotation and True Vertical Shooting functions in strong winds or at high flight speeds, the gimbal may reach its movement limit.

DO NOT use the aircraft in rainy or snowy weather. If encountering rain or snow during flight, land the aircraft immediately and clean the surface of the gimbal and gimbal motor promptly.

Use the gimbal dial on the remote controller to control the tilt of the gimbal. Alternatively, do so through the camera view in DJI Fly. Press and hold the screen until the gimbal adjustment bar appears. Drag the bar to control the gimbal’s angle.

The gimbal supports roll rotation, allowing angle adjustment during shooting.

Two gimbal operation modes are available. Switch between the different operation modes in Settings > Control.

Follow Mode: The roll angle of the gimbal remains stable relative to the horizontal plane or maintains the preset roll angle. This mode is suitable for capturing stable images.

FPV Mode: When the aircraft is flying forward, the gimbal rolls in sync with the rolling aircraft to provide a first-person flying experience.

DO NOT expose the camera lens to an environment with laser beams, such as a laser show, or point the camera at intense light sources for an extended period of time, such as the sun on a clear day, in order to avoid damaging the sensor.

Make sure the temperature and humidity are suitable for the camera during use and storage.

Use a lens cleanser to clean the lens to avoid damage or poor image quality.

DO NOT block any ventilation holes on the camera, as the heat generated may damage the device or cause injury.

The cameras may not focus correctly in the following situations:

• Capturing photos and videos of dark objects far away.
• Capturing photos and videos of objects with repeating identical patterns and textures or objects without clear patterns or textures.
• Capturing photos and videos of shiny or reflective objects (such as street lighting and glass).
• Capturing photos and videos of flashing objects.
• Capturing photos and videos of fast-moving objects.
• When the aircraft/gimbal is moving fast.
• Capturing photos and videos of objects with varying distances in the focus range.

When using the Tele camera for manual focus, the position corresponding to the mountain icon on the focus bar in the app may not match the infinity focus point. Use the Focus Peaking prompt to confirm the accurate focus point.

The aircraft uses SmartPhoto mode by default in Single Shot, which integrates features such as scene recognition or HDR for optimal results. SmartPhoto needs to take multiple shots continuously for image synthesis. When the aircraft or gimbal is moving, SmartPhoto will not be supported, and the image quality may differ.

The photos taken in Single Shot mode have no HDR effect in the following situations:

• When the aircraft or gimbal is moving, or if the aircraft is unable to hover stably due to high wind speeds.
• When white balance is set to manual mode.
• The camera is in Auto mode and the EV setting is adjusted manually.
• The camera is in Auto mode and the AE lock is turned on.
• The camera is in Pro mode.

When capturing a light source with a small aperture, it is normal for specific-shaped flares to appear.

Storing: The aircraft supports the use of a microSD card to store your photos and videos. Photos and videos can also be saved in the internal storage of the aircraft when no microSD card is available.

Exporting:

• Connect the aircraft to a computer using a USB 3.0 data cable, export the footage in the internal storage of the aircraft or in the microSD card mounted on the aircraft. The aircraft does not need to be powered on during the exporting process.
• Remove the microSD card from the aircraft and insert it into a card reader, and export the footage in the microSD card through the card reader.

Ensure that the SD card slot and the microSD card are clean and free of foreign objects during use.

DO NOT remove the microSD card from the aircraft when taking photos or videos. Otherwise, the microSD card may be damaged.

Check camera settings before use to ensure they are configured correctly.

Before capturing important photos or videos, take a few images to test whether the camera is operating correctly.

Make sure to power off the aircraft correctly. Otherwise, the camera parameters will not be saved, and any recorded images or videos may be affected. DJI is not responsible for any loss caused by an image or video recorded in a way that is not machine-readable.

GEO Awareness contains the features listed below.

UGZ (Unmanned Geographical Zone) Data update: You can update the FlySafe data by using the data update feature automatically or storing the data in the aircraft manually.

Method 1: Go to Settings in DJI Fly and tap About > FlySafe Data > Check for Updates to update the FlySafe data automatically.

A prompt will appear in the DJI Fly app when the import completes successfully. If the import fails due to improper data format, follow the on-screen prompt and retry.

GEO Awareness Map Drawing: After the latest UGZ data is updated, a flight map with a restricted zone will be displayed in the DJI Fly app. Name, effective time, height limit, etc., can be viewed by tapping the area.

When the aircraft and DJI Fly app cannot obtain a GPS signal, the GEO awareness function will be inoperative. Interference of the aircraft antenna or disabling the GPS authorization in DJI Fly will cause the GPS signal fails to be obtained.
