Unlocking (starting) the Motors
Description
Illustration
If ATTI mode is selected, there is no need to wait, you can unlock the motors and proceed to takeoff
and fly immediately. We recommend new pilots unlock the motors in GPS mode. The motors can’t be
unlocked in Circle mode.
In GPS mode, if the number of satellites is insufficient, the remote control will vibrate when unlocking
the motors, and will display “WARNING NO GPS” and the motors will not unlock.
Starting / Stopping the Motors
Pull both the left and right joysticks simultaneously towards either the
lower inside or lower outside points. Maintain this position for 3
seconds to unlock the motors.
Precautions before unlocking the motors:
Place the drone in an open area at least 3 meters away from you or others.
When the drone is powered on, the drone will do a self-check. When it’s done, there will be a “DI”
sound. Keep the drone stationary during initialization.
OR
1. Place the drone on a stable horizontal surface free of vibration. Power on
the remote controller and the drone. Wait for initialization to complete.
2. Push the left joystick up to the highest position and then fast flick the
right joystick left and right continuously until “INITIALIZING......” appears
on the FPV screen.
3. The drone will now perform IMU calibration. Do not move or disturb the
drone during this process. When the “INITIALIZING” message disappears
from the FPV display, the process is complete, restart the drone.

IMU Calibration
How to calibrate the IMU:
The IMU accelerometer sensor is used to balance the aircraft.
To determine if the IMU is properly calibrated, place the drone on a completely flat and level surface. The
(P)Pitch and (R) Roll values on the remote controller should read zero +/- 1 and remain stable. Additionally, if
the drone’s response feels skewed, the IMU may need recalibration.
* Normally you don’t need to calibrate the IMU. Never calibrate the IMU on a boat or moving platform.
Note: When the drone is floating on water, it is normal to intermittently see the “IMU calibration” message -
this is due to the motion of the water and does not indicate that calibration is required.
