DF801B USER MANUAL
3. GPS mode and ight mode
The aircraft has built-in GPS positioning module, which will be used to position locations in autonomous ight. Follow the steps herein and the aircraft will enter GPS Positioning Mode:
(1) The remote controller is in P (Position Hold) Mode.
(2) The GPS DOP is at a proper rate for accurate positioning.
At this time, the aircraft can hover and y autonomously. If any of two conditions is missing, the aircraft would automatically enter the altitude hold mode. However, due to the interference
effect of the wind force, the aircraft might drift while hovering and the functions are not able to use at all.
Notice:Autonomous ight refers to ights that are controlled by internal programming that tells where it
is positioned and where to y, rather than a person sending radio signals, including,RTH, one key return,way point ight and point of interest, etc.

4. RTH (Return to home)

When the aircraft enters the GPS positioning mode, the built-in GPS can automatically record its takeoff point as home point. In the following circumstances, the aircraft will automatically initiate RTH:
Notice:When the aircraft initiates auto return to home, users can only control the function when it
has returned and starts to land.
(1) When the battery level is low, the aircraft would automatically initiate RTH.
(2) When the aircraft is disconnected with the remote controller, the aircraft would automatically initiate RTH.
In the RTH mode,if the aircraft ies under 30 meters, it will automatically ascend to the altitude of 30 meters before returning to the home point and landing. If it ies over 30 meters, it will directly return to the home point and then land on the ground.
During the ight, ensure that the aircraft ies within the line of sight, and do not y around the obstacles (such as buildings, trees, etc.). Obstacles might block signals, which will lead to the disconnection between the aircraft and the remote controller, thus triggering the aircraft to enter the RTH mode. This may cause the aircraft to hit an obstacle in the course of RTH and cause accidents.

5. Low battery RTH

(1) Low battery RTH
During the ight, when the battery level is low, the status indicator light of the aircraft would turn slowly blinking red with a prompt message from the APP as well. At this point, the aircraft automatically initiates the RTH mode.
Once the low battery RTH mode is enabled, you can only change the landing site but not turn it off.
(2) Critical low battery warning
When the battery level is at a critical low condition, the status indicator light of aircraft would turn quickly blinking red and the aircraft would immediately land on the ground.

6. Control loss RTH

(1) Control loss RTH with GPS positioning
In the GPS positioning mode,if the signal of the remote controller has been interrupted, the aircraft will hover at the current altitude for 5 seconds. If the signal has not been reconnected, the aircraft would automatically enter RTH mode.
(2) Control loss RTH without GPS positioning
When the aircraft fails to locate the position and the signal of the remote controller has been interrupted for 2 seconds, the aircraft would automatically land.

7. Compass calibration

Notice:When changing the ight site, it is necessary to calibrate the compass before the rst ight.
During usage , if the aircraft indicates with "alternating ashing blue and green lights", which means that
2
DF801B USER MANUAL
the compass is abnormal , please re-calibrate the compass. Please keep away from the environment with magnetic interference when calibrating, otherwise it may cause calibration failure.
The built-in compass helps keep the aircraft oriented.Please ensure it works well every time before ight.
Please calibrate the aircraft compass, if one of the following scenarios happen:
(1) Fly at the new ight site; (2) The aircraft status indicator light indicates the abnormal situation of the compass; (3) APP and aircraft prompt you to calibrate the compass; (4) Hovering or drifting in mid-ight.
Calibrate the compass via the APP:
Preparing to y Position
(1) Enter the calibration mode When the aircraft and APP are connected, click the"..."icon in the upper
right corner of the APP control interface to enter the "General Setting" menu.
Then click the "compass calibration" icon. When APP pops up the prompt, check the current environment and stay

3. About optical ow positioning system
Placed on the bottom of the aircraft, the optical ow positioning system senses the movements of the aircraft with the assistance of the camera, and calculates the current altitude, helping to precisely locate the aircrafts position.
When the aircraft is ready to take off, the optical ow positioning function cannot be activated due to the low altitude with the aircrafts front indicator light blinking slowly. After the aircraft has taken off and the conditions are satised, the optical ow positioning function will automatically turn on and locate the aircrafts position as to enable hovering with the aircrafts indicator light turning solid red.
Attention: In mid-ight, the optical ow positioning function cannot be activated if the aircrafts front indicator light turns slow blinking red. Please pay proper attention for a safe ight.
The optical ow positioning system is signicantly affected by the intensity of the light and the surface texture of the physical object. If the optical ow positioning system fails to work, its function of horizontal centered absolute positioning will be ineffective. In this situation, please manually control the aircraft and pay proper attention whist ying the aircraft in the following scenarios.
Usage Scenarios
•The optical ow positioning system is applicable for altitude between 0.5 and 4 meters and suitable for either indoor or outdoor windless environment.
•The aircrafts indicator light turns slow blinking red when the system fails to locate position and turns solid red when the system functions properly.
•Do not y the aircraft if the app reminds you that the system is not able to function properly in the current environment (such as badly-lit environment).
•Do not cover up the camera. Keep the camera clean and in good condition at all times.
•The optical ow gives information about object movement within the environment based on moving object detection on the ground surface. Ensure the surrounding environment is brightly lit and rich in texture.
•The optical ow positioning system may fail to work in such conditions as water bodies, badly-lit environment or poorly-textured
9
DF801B USER MANUAL
surfaces.
1) The system may fail to locate position when the aircraft ies fast at a low altitude (0.5 meter below).
2) The surfaces in pure colors (such as pure black, pure white, pure red, pure green).
3) Highly reective surfaces.
4) Water bodies or the transparent surfaces.
5) The surfaces of moving objects (such as the crowds, and bushes or brushwood with strong wind blowing).
6) The environment where the light changes rapidly.
7) Badly-lit (light intensity less than 300 lux) or brightly-lit (light intensity more than 10,000 lux) surfaces of the objects.
8) Poorly-textured surfaces.
9) The surfaces that have been featured with highly-repeated textures (such as same-colored checker bricks).
10) Tiny barriers.
11) Control the aircraft to y at an appropriate speed of about 5m/s at the altitude of 1 meter.
