The fuselage adopts the integrated design of carbon fiber, which is easy to install and more convenient to carry
and prepare before flight.
Equipped with advanced Optical Flow Positioning System and Infrared Obstacle Avoidance Perception System,
it can realize accurate positioning and automatic obstacle avoidance, and reduce accidents caused by operation errors.
Adopting 2.4GHz& 5.8GHz dual-band long-distance digital encryption transmission technology,which makes the
maximum video transmission range as long as 9km.
Equipped with 3 dimensional gimbal and night-vision starlight camera which can sense the change of light automatically,
it is capable of capturing clear footage not only at night but also in daytime with the same shooting quality.

4.0 Attention Before Flight
1) This product uses 2.4G & 5.8G dual-band transmission. Please fly your aircraft in the open air without shelter and
without electromagnetic interference.
2) This product is suitable for people who has flight experience of hobby model and ages 14 .
3) Don’t fly in a bad weather, such as windy, snowy, foggy etc..
4) Select the open, no-tall-buildings area. Extensive steel-used buildings will affect the compass, blocking the GPS
signal, causing worse on the aircraft positioning or even not able to locate.
5) Please keep away from highly spining parts(such as propellers and motors).
6) Please keep away from obstacles, people, water and so on.
7) Don’t fly it in where there is high-voltage lines, communication base stations or radio towers, in order to avoid
signal interference.
8) Don’t fly in no-fly zone according to the local laws and regulations.
9) Flight performance will be effected with environment when flying above 4500m of sea levels,as the battery and
gravity system will be influenced.
5.0 Check Battery Levels
Turn on the remote controller and flight Battery to check the battery level.
Be sure the battery was fully charged at the first use.
1) Long press the power button for 2~ 3 seconds to turn on the remote controller.
2) Long press the power button for 3~ 5 seconds to turn on Flight Battery.
(Repeat above operation to turn off the aircraft battery)

Gimbal stick position determines the rate of change of the gimbal: when the stick located at the
midpoint the velocity is zero, the greater the offset of the stick gimbal changes faster, whereas the slower.

When the image is dark or bright, you can use the camera to set the automatic mode or manual mode in the
professional options.
Manual mode: You can adjust the brightness of the screen by adjusting the shutter speed, ISO sensitivity, and
exposure compensation.
In Auto mode, only can adjust the exposure compensation(EV).
Note: The APP main interface has an image display transmitted by the aircraft before it can be manipulated
using the touch screen.

Attention:
1) When video recording, it is not possible to switch the Auto mode and Manual mode; in the Auto mode,the
exposure compensation(EV) can be adjusted only; in the Manual mode, the sensitivity(ISO)value and the
exposure compensation(EV) can be adjusted, and the shutter speed(Expose)value cannot be adjusted.
2) In Manual mode, when the shutter speed(Expose)value and the sensitivity(ISO)value are increased in dark
scenes, the image screen becomes brighter. If the camera lens is facing a brighter light, the screen is often
burst, you need to adjust the shutter speed(Expose) value or the sensitivity(ISO) value to readjust the image
brightness; when the picture is manually adjusted in a brighter scene, when the camera lens is aimed at a
darker place, the shutter value speed(Expose) or the sensitivity(ISO) value must be adjusted manually to
adjust the picture.
3) The factory default is stored in the Micro SD card, and the video can also be stored on the remote control
(change the path: in the APP main interface → → → Video location→local).
The down-view optical flow positioning system uses optical flow sensors to detect the ground below the aircraft to
determine the current height of the aircraft (the height can only be set if the flight height is less than 3 meters).

The compass calibration steps are as follows:
In case of failure to calibrate, please follow above procedure to repeat calibration.
Place right/left sticks at lowest location,
toggle them inward and keep for 5 seconds
until the aircraft’s red LED lights flash quickly .
Keep for 5 seconds

14.4 Stick Mode Switch & Stick Calibration
Factory setting of remote controller stick mode & stick calibration has been determined;
please refer to the following operation method for switching and calibration.
Be sure to switch off the aircraft power or lock motor before operation.
Long press " " button for 3 to 5 seconds, four lights flash
alternately to enter stick / thumbwheel calibration.
Operate the stick /thumbwheel several times within mechanical
tuning range and then back in the middle.
Long press the " " button for 3 to 5 seconds again,
four indicator lights turn on, then exit stick /thumbwheel calibration.
When you exit if vibrate alert, then the calibration fails,
please recalibrate.
If there is circles or drift in flying, please calibrate the compass.(the motor must be locked)
Please calibration outdoors and far away from strong electromagnetic interference.

15.0 Flight Battery Safety Guidelines
15.1 Battery Use
1) DO NOT allow the batteries to come into any kind of liquid. DO NOT leave batteries out in the rain or near a
source of moisture. DO NOT drop the battery into water. If the inside of the battery comes into water, chemical
decomposition may occur, potentially resulting in the battery catching on fire, and may even lead to an explosion.
2) Never use non-walkera batteries. Go to www. walkera.com to purchase new batteries. Walkera takes no
responsibility for any damage caused by non-walkera batteries.
3) Never use or charge swollen, leaky, or damaged batteries. If your batteries are abnormal,contact Walkera or a
walkera authorized dealer for further assistance.
4) Never install or remove the battery from the aircraft when it is turned on. DO NOT insert or remove batteries if
the plastic cover has been torn or compromised in any way.
5) The battery should be used in temperatures from 0 to 40 . Use of the battery in environments above 50
can lead to a fire or explosion. Use of battery below 0 the life cycle of battery will be damaged.
6) DO NOT use the battery in strong electrostatic or electromagnetic environments. Otherwise,the battery control
board may malfunction and cause a serious accident during flight.
7) Never disassemble or pierce the battery in any way or the battery may leak, catch fire, or explode.
8) Electrolytes in the battery is highly corrosive. If any electrolytes contacts with your skin or eyes, wash the affected
area with fresh running water at least 15 minutes, and then see a doctor immediately.
9) DO NOT use the battery if it was involved in a crash or heavy impact.
10) If the battery falls into water with the aircraft during flight, take it out immediately and put it in a safe and open
area. Maintain a safe distance from the battery until it is completely dry. Never use the battery again and
dispose it properly.
11) DO NOT put batteries in a microwave oven or in a pressurized container.
12) DO NOT place loose battery cells on any conductive surface, such as a metal table.
13) DO NOT put the loose cells in a pocket, bag or drawer where they may short-circuit against other items or
where the battery terminals could be pressed against each other.
14) DO NOT drop or strike batteries. DO NOT place heavy objects on the batteries or charger. Avoid dropping batteries.
15) Clean battery terminals with a clean, dry cloth.
Store Intelligent Flight Batteries in a ventilated location.
To avoid fire, serious injury, and property damage, observe the following safety guidelines when using,
charging, or storing your batteries.
15.2 Battery Storage
1) Do not expose the battery to sources such as open flames or heaters.
2) Keep the battery out of the reach of children.
3) Make sure the battery is stored at room temperature: around 25 degrees Celsius.
4) For batteries that are not used for a long time, please save the voltage between 22.2V and 22.8V.
5) When not in use for a long time, check the battery storage status every two weeks for abnormality. Charge and
