When executing an auto-return, the aircraft will rise to the RTH altitude set before starting the return process. PDF p. 105

Although the flight application allows you to set a flight altitude within the range of 20-800 meters, this does not mean that the set altitude complies with local laws and regulations. PDF p. 106

The RTH altitude should be set higher than the altitude of obstacles within the flight operation area. PDF p. 106

The RTH altitude setting should comply with local (within the flight operation area) laws and regulations. PDF p. 106

For information about adjusting the RTH altitude of the aircraft, see “2.7.4 Auto return home mechanism” in Chapter 2. PDF p. 106

If this function is turned on, the aircraft can rise up to the maximum altitude set. PDF p. 106

If this function is turned off, the aircraft can keep ascending according to your operation until the battery is exhausted. PDF p. 106

If this function is turned on, the aircraft will fly within a circle with the take-off point as the center and the distance limit value set as the radius. PDF p. 106

If this function is turned off, the aircraft can keep moving according to your operation until the battery is exhausted or the signal lost action is triggered. PDF p. 106

Appropriate altitude limit and distance limit settings can improve flight safety. PDF p. 106

The altitude limit setting should comply with local (within the flight operation area) laws and regulations. Flying the aircraft in an unsuitable flight altitude may have legal risks. Please comply with the fight safety requirements of relevant areas during flight operations. PDF p. 106

The aircraft supports four flight modes: Slow, Smooth, Standard, and Ludicrous. For the difference between those modes, see “3.8.2 Flight Modes” in Chapter 3. PDF p. 106

If "Aircraft" is selected, the home point is the position where the aircraft currently is. PDF p. 106

If "RC" is selected, the home point is the current position of the remote controller. PDF p. 106

Perform the calibration operation as instructed in the flight application. For more information, see “2.12 Aircraft Calibration” in Chapter 2. PDF p. 106

Lost action refers to the action that the aircraft will take when the aircraft is disconnected from the remote controller during flight. By default, the lost action is set to “Return to Home”. PDF p. 107

If “Return to Home” is selected, when the aircraft disconnects, the aircraft will automatically return to the home point. PDF p. 107

If "Hovering" is selected, when the aircraft disconnects, the aircraft will hover at the current position. PDF p. 107

1 7 ^ { n } \tan d is selected, when the aircraft disconnects, the aircraft will land at the current position. PDF p. 107

When the aircraft initiates a return to home due to a disconnection, even if the aircraft reconnects to the remote controller, it will continue the return process. In this case, you can press the pause button \textcircled{o} \eta on the remote controller for 2 seconds until the RC emits “beep” sound to pause or exit auto return and you can pull the pitch stick to pause the return process. After exiting the auto return, the RC will regain the control of the aircraft. PDF p. 107

If this function is turned off, when the aircraft detects an obstacle, it will not stop and brake. PDF p. 107

To ensure flight safety, it is recommended to always turn the OA system on. PDF p. 108

When the flight mode of the aircraft is set to “Ludicrous”, the OA system function is unavailable. PDF p. 108

If the aircraft detects an obstacle, it will send a warning at the “Warning Distance” as set. PDF p. 108

If this function is turned on, when the aircraft detects an obstacle, it will provide risk warnings on the camera interface based on the set brake/warning distance. PDF p. 108

If this function is turned off, when the aircraft detects an obstacle, it will not provide risk warnings on the camera interface. PDF p. 108

Turn On/Off Obstacle Detection Notification Sound PDF p. 108
