Drone
Flight Mode:

GPS Mode
To achieve precise hovering, the drone is equipped with a GPS module. The intelligent
flight function works in GPS mode. Users can enable Sport Mode or Beginner Mode
in the flight settings. When the Beginner Mode is on, the flight speed, flight distance,
flight altitude and RTH altitude will be limited. In sport mode, the maximum flight speed
is 18m/s, the maximum ascending speed is 5m/s, and the maximum descending speed
is 3.5m/s.

VPU Mode (Vision Processing Unit Mode)

An Optical Flow module is also built into the drone for precise hovering and landing
at the home point. In VPU mode, the intelligent flight function is not supported. The
maximum flight speed is 10m/s (36 km/h), the maximum ascending speed is 3m/ s
(11 km/h), and the maximum descending speed is 2m/s (7 km/h). When the drone is
flying above a well-lit ground with a clear texture and the GPS signal is poor, it will
switch automatically to VPU mode.

ATTI Mode (Altitude Mode)

When the aircraft enters the ATTI mode under weak GPS or optical flow signals, the
maximum flight speed is 18m/s, the maximum ascent speed is 5m/s, and the maximum
descent speed is 3.5m/s. In ATTI mode, the aircraft may drift in the horizontal direction
and does not support intelligent flight functions. Therefore, to avoid accidents, users
should choose locations with good GPS signals and open space for flying. Once the
aircraft enters ATTI mode, please land it as soon as possible to a safe location.

Note: Above 2400 meters altitude, the flight mode will become ineffective.

Failsafe Return
Failsafe return is only supported in GPS mode. When the drone and remote controller
signal is interrupted for more than 2 seconds, the flight control system built into the
drone will take over the control of your drone, plan the return path according to the
original flight path, then the drone will fly back and land at the home point. This function
works precisely if enough GPS satellites are locked, the compass has no interference
and the home point has been recorded correctly. If the wireless signal reconnects
during the failsafe return, the pilot can short press the RTH button to cancel, and the
drone will hover at the current position.
