Flight Controller

The Inspire 1 Pro’s ight controller is based on DJI ight controller with several enhancements such as new ight mode and new safe mode. Three safe modes are available: Failsafe, Return Home and
Dynamic Home Point. These features ensure the safe return of your aircraft if the control signal is lost. A
ight recorder stores crucial ight data for each ight.

Flight Mode

Three ight modes are available. The details of each ight mode are found in the section below:
P mode (Positioning) : P mode works best when GPS signal is strong. There are three different states of
P mode, which will be automatically selected by the Inspire 1 Pro depending on GPS signal strength and
Vision Positioning sensors:
P-GPS: GPS and Vision Positioning both are available, and the aircraft is using GPS for positioning.
P-OPTI: Vision Positioning is available but the GPS signal is not. Aircraft is using only Vision Positioning for hovering
P-ATTI: Neither GPS or Vision Positioning available, aircraft is using only its barometer for positioning,
so only altitude is controlled.
A mode (Attitude): The GPS and Vision Positioning System is not used for holding position. The aircraft
only uses its barometer to maintain altitude. If it is still receiving a GPS signal, the aircraft can automatically return home if the Remote Controller signal is lost and if the Home Point has been recorded successfully. F mode (Function): Intelligent Orientation Control (IOC) is activated in this mode. For more information about IOC, refer to the IOC in Appendix.
Use the Flight Controller mode switch to change the ight mode of the aircraft, refer to the “Flight
Mode Switch” on P29 for more information.

Flight Status Indicator

The Inspire 1 Pro comes with the Front LED, Rear LED and Aircraft Status Indicator. The positions of these LEDs are shown in the gure below:
Aircraft Status Indicator
Front LED
The Front and Rear LED show the orientation of the aircraft. The Front LED displays solid red and the Rear LED displays solid green.

Return to Home (RTH)

The Return to Home (RTH) brings the aircraft back to the last recorded Home Point. There are three cases
that will trigger RTH procedure; they are Smart RTH, Low Battery RTH and Failsafe RTH.
Description
Home Point
GPS
The Home Point is the location at which your aircraft takes off when the
GPS signal is strong. You can view the GPS signal strength through
the GPS icon ( ). If you are using the Dynamic Home Point
setting, the Home Point will be updated to your current position as you
move around and when the Aircraft Status Indicator blinks green.
Smart RTH
Using the RTH button on the remote controller (refer to “RTH button” on P30 for more information) or the RTH button in the DJI GO app when GPS is available to enables smart RTH. The aircraft return to the
latest recorded Home Point, you may control the aircraft's orientation to avoid collision during the Smart RTH. Press the Smart RTH button once to start the process, press the Smart RTH button again to exit
Smart RTH and regain the control.

Low Battery RTH
The low battery level failsafe is triggered when the DJI Intelligent Flight Battery is depleted to a point that may affect the safe return of the aircraft. Users are advised to return home or land the aircraft immediately when these warnings are shown. DJI GO app will advise user to return the aircraft to the Home Point when low battery warning is triggered. Aircraft will automatically return to the Home Point if no action is taken after 10 seconds countdown. User can cancel the RTH by pressing once on the RTH button. The thresholds for these warnings are automatically determined based on the current aircraft altitude and its distance from the Home Point. Aircraft will land automatically if the current battery level can only support the aircraft to land to the ground from the current altitude. User can use the remote controller to control the aircraft’s orientation during the landing process.
The Battery Level Indicator is displayed in the DJI GO app, and is described below

automatically, you may push the throttle upward to hover the aircraft and navigate it to a more
appropriate location for landing.
Color zones and markers on the battery level indicator reect estimated remaining ight time
and are adjusted automatically, according to the aircraft’s current status.
Failsafe RTH
Failsafe RTH is activated automatically if remote controller signal (including video relay signal) is lost for more than 3 seconds provided that Home Point has been successfully recorded and compass is working normally. Return home process may be interrupted and the operator can regain control over the aircraft if a remote controller signal is resumed.

Aircraft automatically descends and lands if RTH is triggered when the aircraft ies within a 20
meter (65 feet) radius of the Home Point.
Aircraft cannot avoid obstruction during the Failsafe RTH, therefore it is important to set an
reasonable Failsafe altitude before each ight. Launch the DJI GO app and enter “Camera”
view and select “MODE” to set the Failsafe altitude.
Aircraft will stop ascending and immediately return to the Home Point if you move the throttle
stick if the aircraft reaches 20 m altitudes or beyond during Failsafe.

Dynamic Home Point

Dynamic home point is useful in situations when you are in
motion and require a Home Point that is different from the
takeoff point. GPS module is located at the position shown in
the gure below:
Ensure the space above the GPS module is not obstructed when using Dynamic Home Point.

4. The aircraft status indicator blinks green to show Home Point is set successfully.

Vision Positioning System

DJI Vision Positioning is a positioning system that uses ultrasonic and image data to help the aircraft
identify its current position. With the help of Vision Positioning, your Inspire 1 Pro can hover in place more precisely and y indoors or in other environments where there is no GPS signal available. The main components of DJI Vision Positioning are located on the bottom of your Inspire 1 Pro, including [1]two
sonar sensors and[2]one monocular camera.
[2]
[1]
Using Vision Positioning
Vision Positioning is activated automatically when the Inspire 1 Pro is powered on. No manual action is
required. Vision Positioning is typically used in the indoor environment where no GPS is available. By using the sensors on the Vision Positioning system, Inspire 1 Pro can perform precision hovering even
when no GPS is available.

INSPIRE 1 PRO User Manual
Follow the steps below to use Vision Positioning:
1. Toggle the switch to “P” as shown the gure to the right:
2. Place the Inspire 1 Pro on a flat surface. Notice that the Vision Positioning system cannot work properly on surfaces without pattern variations.
3. Power on the Inspire 1 Pro. The aircraft status indicator will ash twice in green light, which indicates the Vision Positioning system is ready. Gently push the throttle up to lift off, and the Inspire 1 Pro will hover in place.
The performance of your Inspire 1 Pro’s Vision Positioning System is subject to the surface you are
ying over. The ultrasonic waves may not be able to accurately measure the distance over sound absorbing materials, and the camera may not function correctly in suboptimal environments. The
aircraft will switch from “P” mode to “A” mode automatically if both GPS and Vision Positioning System are not available. So operate the aircraft cautiously when in any of the following situations:
Flying over monochrome surfaces (e.g. pure black, pure white, pure red, pure green). Flying over a highly reective surfaces. Flying at high speeds (over 8m/s at 2 meters or over 4m/s at 1 meter).
Flying over water or transparent surfaces. Flying over moving surfaces or objects.
Flying in an area where the lighting changes frequently or drastically. Flying over extremely dark (lux < 10) or bright (lux > 10,000) surfaces.
Flying over surfaces that can absorb sound waves (e.g. thick carpet). Flying over surfaces without clear patterns or texture. Flying over surfaces with identical repeating patterns or textures (e.g. tiles with same design).
Flying over inclined surfaces that will deect sound waves away from the aircraft. In the event of loss of remote controller’s signal, the aircraft will hover for 8 seconds and then
auto-land if it is in “P” mode.
Keep the sensors clean at all times. Dirt or other debris may adversely affect the effectiveness
of the sensors.
The effective hovering altitudes of the aircraft is from 0 to 2.5 meters.
Vision Positioning system may not function properly when the aircraft is ying over water.
Vision Positioning system may not be able to recognize pattern on the ground in low light
conditions (less than 100lux).
Do not use other ultrasonic devices with frequency of 40 KHz when Vision Positioning system is
in operation.
Vision Positioning system may not be able to stabilize the aircraft when flying close to the
ground (below 0.5 meters) in fast speed.
Keep the animals away from the aircraft when Vision Positioning system is activated. The sonar sensor emits high frequency sound that is only audible to some animals.
