please fully charge the battery and keep it warm (over 10°C.)
(2) Using the battery in an environment below -10 ° C may have unpredictable
results.
(3) In a low-temperature environment, the actual discharge of the battery is
likely to be different than the theoretical discharge capacity. It is
recommended to stop flying and land immediately when the APP
prompts a "low battery alarm".
(4) In a low-temperature environment, due to the limitation of battery output
power, the wind resistance of the aircraft will be reduced. Please fly with
caution.

5

1.2.5 Precautions For Battery

Be sure to fully charge each time before using the Intelligent Battery. Charge the
intelligent battery only with Hubsan supplied power adapter and intelligent
charging modules.
(1) After each flight, battery temperature maybe higher. Allow Intelligent Battery
to cool down to normal room temperature before charging.
(2) The charging temperature range of the intelligent battery is 5 ° C to 40 ° C. If the
temperature of the battery cell is not in this range, the battery management system
will stop charging. The optimal charging temperature range is 25 ± 3 ° C. Charging
in this temperature range can extend the battery life.

1.3 Propellers

Before installing the propeller, please carefully check the letters by the
aircraft motors and the letters on the propeller. You must match those letters
when installing propellers; If the blade is damaged or needs to be replaced,
unscrew the screw counter-clockwise to remove the propeller.

There are three types of RTH: One-key RTH, Low Battery RTH, and Failsafe RTH.

When taking off, and GPS has locked more than 6 satellites, the aircraft will

mark take off point as home point. If there is no GPS signal and drone is forced

to take-off, Whenever GPS locks more than 6 satellites, it will record that point

as home position.

17

RTH-Process

1. Ensure the "home" point is recorded.

2. Press the return to home icon

3. The aircraft will adjust its direction.

4. The aircraft will climb to the safe altitude as set in the App
(1) Regardless of the current height of the aircraft, if the aircraft is within 5
meters of the horizontal distance from home point, it will land;
(2) If the horizontal distance from home point is between 5 - 20 meters,
aircraft will return at the current altitude;
(3) If aircraft is more than 20 meters away, if the altitude of aircraft is more
than the set return altitude ,it will return on same altitude, else it will climb
to set return altitude ,and then return to home;

5. Search for the Aircraft parking apron during the landing process (This
feature must be turned on in app before taking off and or landing)

One-key RTH

APP one-Key RTH / remote control one-Key RTH

Low Battery RTH

1. The aircraft will automatically Return to home according to its own
power calculations and the distance from the Home Point.

2. Aircraft will land automatically at the same point upon low battery RTH
activation, If there is no GPS signal or weak GPS signals

3.When taking off, if it is forced take off with weak GPS signals or GPS
signals are not good, the aircraft will automatically return to the place
where it achieved, good GPS signal for the first time.

4. If the power is less than 1% or the battery voltage is less than 5.6V,
aircraft will enter in forced landing mode.

Failsafe RTH

When the aircraft loses connection with the remote control for more than 5
seconds, the aircraft automatically returns or land directly. Performance
requirements:
(1) After the aircraft loses control for 5 seconds, it triggers automatic return;
(2) If the drone reconnects, it will continue to perform the returning
procedure when Failsafe RTH mode is activated;
(3) Landing directly when there is no GPS signal or the signal is not strong.

Please make sure there are no stickers or impurities on the gimbal before take
off, and place the aircraft on flat and open ground. Please do not bump the
gimbal after the power is turned on.

The gimbal contains precision parts. If it is hit or damaged, the precision parts
will be damaged, which may cause the performance of the gimbal to decrease.
Please take good care of the gimbal and camera from physical damage.

Please keep the gimbal clean and avoid the gimbal from contacting foreign
objects such as sand or stone, otherwise it may block the movement of the
gimbal and affect its performance.

If the aircraft is placed on uneven ground or grass, the ground object touches
the gimbal, or the gimbal is subjected to excessive external force (such as
being bumped or broken) may cause the gimbal motor to be abnormal.

Do not add any objects to the camera head, otherwise it will affect the
performance of the head and even burn the motor.

Remove the gimbal protection latch before use and then turn it on. Reinstall
the gimbal latch to protect the gimbal during storage or transportation.

Flying in heavy fog or clouds can cause the gimbal to condense, resulting in
temporary failure. If this happens, the gimbal can return to normal after
drying.

APP Adjustment

Method 1: long press the blank of the video preview interface and the mobile
device will vibrate once. When appears (1) at the position which you press, you
can adjust gimbal pitch by sweeping your finger up and down the screen.
