This chapter describes the features of the Flight Controller, Vision System and the Intelligent Flight Battery.

Aircraft

Flight Controller

The Inspire 2 ight controller features several important upgrades. Safety modes include Failsafe

and Return-to-Home. These features ensure the safe return of your aircraft if the control signal is

lost. The ight controller can also save critical ight data from each ight to the on-board storage device. The new ight controller also provides increased stability and a new air braking feature.

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 the GPS signal is strong. The aircraft utilizes the GPS and Forward and Downward Vision Systems to locate itself, automatically stabilize, and navigate between obstacles. Advanced features such as TapFly and ActiveTrack are enabled in this mode.

When the Forward Vision System is enabled and lighting conditions are sufcient, the maximum ight attitude angle is 25°. When forward obstacle sensing are disabled, the maximum ight attitude angle is 35°.

When the GPS signal is weak and lighting conditions are too dark for the Forward and Downward Vision Systems, the aircraft will only use its barometer for positioning to control altitude. Note: P-mode requires larger stick movements to achieve high speeds.

S-mode (Sport):

The aircraft is using GPS for positioning. As Forward and Downward Vision Systems are disabled, the aircraft will not be able to sense and avoid obstacles when in Sport Mode. Ground Station and the Intelligent Flight functions are also not available in Sport Mode. Note: Aircraft responses are optimized for agility and speed making it more responsive to stick movements.

A-mode (Attitude):

When neither the GPS nor the Vision System is available, the aircraft will only use its barometer for positioning to control the altitude. Ground Station and the Intelligent Flight functions are also not available in A-mode.

The forward Vision System is disabled in S-mode (Sport), which means the aircraft will

not be able to automatically avoid obstacles in its ight path. Be vigilant and stay clear of nearby obstacles.

The aircraft’s maximum speed and braking distance are signicantly increased in S-mode

(Sport). A minimum braking distance of 164 feet (50 meters) is required in windless conditions.

The aircraft’s responsiveness is signicantly increased in S-mode (Sport), which means a small

stick movement on the remote controller will translate into a large travel distance of the aircraft.

Be vigilant and maintain adequate maneuvering space during ight.

The aircraft’s descent speed is signicantly increased in S-mode (Sport). A minimum braking

distance of 164 feet (50 meters) is required in windless conditions.

Use the Flight Controller mode switch to change the ight mode of the aircraft.

INSPIRE 2 User Manual

Flight Status Indicator

The Inspire 2 comes with the Front LED, Rear LED and Aircraft Status Indicator. The positions of

these LEDs are shown in the gure below:

Rear LEDFront LED

The Front LEDs show the orientation of the aircraft. The Front LEDs glow solid red when the aircraft is turned on to indicate the front (or nose) of the aircraft (Front and rear LEDs can be turned off

in the DJI GO 4 app). The Aircraft Status Indicator communicates the system status of the ight

controller. Refer to the table below for more information about the Aircraft Status Indicator.

Return-to-Home (RTH)

Return-to-Home (RTH) function brings the aircraft back to the last recorded Home Point. There are three types of RTH: Smart RTH, Low Battery RTH, and Failsafe RTH. This section describes these three scenarios in detail.

GPS

If a strong GPS signal was acquired before takeoff, the Home Point is the location from which the aircraft launched. The GPS signal strength is

Home Point

indicated by the GPS icon ( GPS signal.). The aircraft status indicator will blink rapidly when the home point is recorded.

The aircraft can sense and avoid obstacles when the Forward Vision System is enabled and

lighting conditions are sufcient. The aircraft will automatically climb up to avoid obstacles and

descend slowly as it returns to the home point. To ensure the aircraft returns home forwards, it

cannot rotate or y left and right during RTH while the Forward Vision System is enabled.

Failsafe RTH

The Forward Vision System allows the aircraft to create a real-time map of its ight route as it ies. If

the Home Point was successfully recorded and the compass is functioning normally, Failsafe RTH will be automatically activated if the remote controller signal is lost for more than three seconds. The

aircraft will plan its return route and retrace its original ight route home. The aircraft will hover for

10 seconds at its current location. When it regains signal connection it will wait for pilot commands. The Return-to-Home process may be interrupted and the pilot given control of the aircraft if the remote controller signal connection is re-established.

Aircraft automatically descends and lands if RTH is triggered when the aircraft ies within a

65 feet (20 meters) radius of the Home Point. Aircraft will stop ascending and immediately return to the Home Point if you move the left stick if the aircraft reaches 65 feet (20 meters) altitudes or beyond during Failsafe.

The aircraft cannot avoid obstruction during Failsafe RTH if Forward Vision System is

disabled. It is important to set a suitable Failsafe altitude before each ight. Launch the DJI

GO 4 app, enter “Camera” and tap to set the Failsafe Altitude.

User cannot control the aircraft while the aircraft is ascending to 65 feet (20 meters) from the

current altitude. However, user can press RTH button once to exit ascending and regain control.

INSPIRE 2 User Manual

Smart RTH

Use the RTH button on the remote controller or tap the RTH button in the DJI GO 4 app and follow the on-screen instructions when GPS is available to initiate Smart RTH. The aircraft will then automatically return to the last recorded Home Point. Use the remote controller to control the aircraft’s speed or altitude to avoid a collision during the Smart RTH process. As the aircraft returns, it will use the primary camera to identify obstacles as far as 300m in front, allowing it to plan a safe route home. Press and hold the Smart RTH button once to start the process, and press the Smart RTH button again to terminate the procedure and regain full control of the aircraft.

Low Battery RTH (Can be turned off in DJI GO 4 app)

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 prompted. The DJI GO 4 app will display a notice when a low battery warning is triggered. The aircraft will automatically return to the Home Point if no action is taken after a tensecond countdown. The user can cancel the RTH procedure by pressing the RTH button on the remote controller. The thresholds for these warnings are automatically determined based on the aircraft’s current altitude and distance from the Home Point.

The aircraft will land automatically if the current battery level can only support the aircraft long enough to descend from its current altitude. The user can still use the remote controller to alter the aircraft’s orientation during the landing process.

The Battery Level Indicator is displayed in the DJI GO 4 app, and is described below:

Obstacle Avoidance During RTH*

Aircraft can now sense and actively attempt to avoid obstacles during RTH, provided that the lighting conditions are adequate for the Forward Vision System. Upon detecting an obstacle, the aircraft will act as follows:

1. The aircraft will use the primary camera to identify obstacles as far as 984 feet (300 meters) in front, allowing it to plan a safe route home.

2. The aircraft decelerates when an obstacle is sensed at 49 feet (15 meters) ahead.

3.The aircraft stops and hover then start ascending vertically to avoid the obstacle. Eventually, the aircraft will stop climbing when it is at least 16 feet (5 meters) above the detected obstacle.

4. Failsafe RTH procedure resume, the aircraft will continue ying to the Home Point at the current altitude.

5 meters

300 meters

*Coming soon.

The Obstacle Sensing function is disabled during RTH descent. Proceed with care.

To ensure the aircraft returns home forwards, it cannot rotate during RTH while the For-

ward Vision System is enabled.

The aircraft cannot avoid obstacles beside or behind the aircraft.

Landing Protection Function

Landing Protection will activate during auto landing.

1. Landing Protection determines whether the ground is suitable for landing. If so, the Inspire 2 will

land gently.

2. If Landing Protection determines that the ground is not suitable for landing, the Inspire 2 will hover

and wait for pilot conrmation. The aircraft will hover if it detects the ground is not appropriate for

landing even with a critically low battery warning. Only when the battery level decreases to 0% will the

aircraft land. Users retain control of aircraft ight orientation.

3. If Landing Protection is inactive, the DJI GO 4 app will display a landing prompt when the Inspire 2

descends below 0.7 meters. Tap to conrm or pull down the control stick for 2 seconds to land when

the environment is appropriate for landing.

Landing Protection will not be active in the following circumstances:

When the user is controlling the pitch/roll/throttle sticks (Landing ground detection will re-activate when control sticks are not in use) When the positioning system is not fully functional (e.g. drift position error) When the downward vision system needs re-calibration

When light conditions are not sufcient for the downward vision system

If an obstacle is within 1-meter of the aircraft, the aircraft will descend to 0.7m above the

ground and hover. The aircraft will land upon with user conrmation.

Assisted Braking from Obstacle Sensing

Powered by the Obstacle Sensing, the aircraft will now be able to actively brake when obstacles are detected around the aircraft. Note that Obstacle Sensing function works best when lighting

is adequate and the obstacle is clearly marked or textured. The aircraft must y at no more than 31mph (50kph) to allow sufcient braking distance.

The forward vision system will be disabled after the landing gear lowers. Stay alert.

The performance of your Vision System and Infrared Sensing System are affected by the surface

being own over. Ultrasonic sensors may not be able to accurately measure distances when

operating above 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 neither GPS nor Vision System and Infrared Sensing System are available. Operate the aircraft with great caution in the following situations:

a) Flying over monochrome surfaces (e.g. pure black, pure white, pure red, pure green).

b) Flying over a highly reective surfaces.

c) Flying at high speeds of over 31mph (50kph) at 2 meters or over 11mph (18kph) at 1

meter. d) Flying over water or transparent surfaces. e) Flying over moving surfaces or objects. f) Flying in an area where the lighting changes frequently or drastically. g) Flying over extremely dark (lux < 10) or bright (lux > 100,000) surfaces. h) Flying over surfaces that can absorb sound waves (e.g. thick carpet). i) Flying over surfaces without clear patterns or texture. j) Flying over surfaces with identical repeating patterns or textures (e.g. tiling).

k) Flying over inclined surfaces that will deect sound waves away from the aircraft. l) Flying over obstacles with too small effective infrared reective surface.

m) DO NOT position the sides of two aircraft toward each other to avoid interference between the 3D infrared modules. n) DO NOT cover the protective glass of the infrared module. Keep it clean and undamaged.

Keep sensors clean at all times. Dirt or other debris may adversely affect their effectiveness. Vision System is only effective when the aircraft is at altitudes of 0.3 to 10 meters.

The Vision System may not function properly when the aircraft is ying over water.

The Vision System may not be able to recognize pattern on the ground in low light

conditions (less than 100 lux).

Do not use other ultrasonic devices with frequency of 40 KHz when Vision System is in

operation.

Flight

This chapter describes the flight safety

and ight restrictions.

Flight

Once pre-ight preparation is complete, it is recommended that you use the ight simulator in the DJI GO 4 app to hone your ight skills and practice ying safely. Ensure that all ights are carried

out in an open area.

Flight Environment Requirements

1. Do not use the aircraft in severe weather conditions. These include wind speeds exceeding 10 m/s , snow, rain and fog.

2. Only y in open areas. Tall structures and large metal structures may affect the accuracy of the

on-board compass and GPS system.

3. Avoid obstacles, crowds, high voltage power lines, trees, and bodies of water.

4. Minimize interference by avoiding areas with high levels of electromagnetism, including base stations and radio transmission towers.

5. Aircraft and battery performance is subject to environmental factors such as air density and

temperature. Be very careful when ying at high altitudes, as the performance of the battery and

aircraft may be affected.

6. The compass and GPS will not work in Polar Regions. The aircraft will auto switch to A-mode and use the Vision System for positioning.

Flight Limits and No-Fly Zones

All unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) operators should abide by all regulations set forth by government

and regulatory agencies including the ICAO and the FAA. For safety reasons, ights are limited by

default, which helps users operate this product safely and legally. Flight limitations include height limits, distance limits, and No-Fly Zones. When operating in P-mode, height limits, distance limits, and No-Fly Zones function concurrently to

manage ight safety. In A-mode, only height limits are in effect, which by default prevent the aircraft

altitude from exceeding 1640 feet (500 m) .

Maximum ight altitude & Radius Limits

Maximum ight altitude and radius limits may be changed in the DJI GO 4 app. Be aware that the maximum ight altitude cannot exceed 1640 feet (500 meters). In accordance with these settings, your Inspire 2 will y in a restricted cylinder, as shown below:

farther.

If the aircraft ies out of the max radius it will y back within range automatically when GPS

signal is strong.

Warning: Height limit reached.

Aircraft Status Indicator

None.

No-Fly Zones

All No-Fly Zones are listed on the DJI official website at http://www.dji.com/flysafe/no-fly. No-Fly Zones are divided into Airports and Restricted Areas. Airports include major airports and flying

elds where manned aircraft operate at low altitudes. Restricted Areas include borders between

countries or sensitive sites. The details of the No-Fly Zones are explained below:

Airport:

(1) Airport No-Fly Zone are comprised of Take-off Restricted zones and Restricted Altitude Zones.

Each zone features circles of various sizes.

(2) R1 miles (value of the R1 depends on the size and shape of the airport) around the airport is a

Take-off restricted zone, inside of which take off is prevented.

(3) From R1 mile to R1 + 1 mile around the airport the flight altitude is limited to a 15 degree

inclination. Starting at 65 feet (20 meters) from the edge of airport and radiating outward. The

ight altitude is limited to 1640 feet (500 meters) at R1+1 mile.

(4) When the aircraft enters within 320 feet (100 meters) of No-Fly Zones, a warning message will

appear on the DJI GO 4 app.

(3) A “warning zone” has been set around the Restricted Area. When the aircraft approaches within

0.062 miles (100 m) of this zone, a warning message will appear on the DJI GO 4 app.

Restricted Areas

100m R

When flying in a safety zone, the aircraft's status indicator will blink red rapidly and

continue for 3 seconds, then switch to indicate current ying status and continue for 5

seconds at which point it will switch back to blinking red.

For safety reasons, please do not y close to airports, highways, railway stations, railway

lines, city centers, or other sensitive areas. Fly the aircraft only within your line of sight.
