Semi-automatic descent:  All  stick  commands are available except  the  throttle stick  command during 
the descent and landing process. Motors will stop automatically after landing. Users must toggle the S1 
switch to regain control. This is the same as regaining control during Failsafe. Please refer to Regaining 
Control During Failsafe Procedure (Page23).  
(1)  When flying in the airspace (A/B/C) of restricted special area, LED flight indicators will blink red 
 quickly  and continue  for 3 seconds,  then switch to indicate  current flying 
status and continue for 5 seconds at which point it will switch back to red blinking. 
(2)  For safety reasons, please do not fly close to airports, highways, railway stations, railway lines, 
city centers and other special areas. Try to ensure the aircraft is visible. 
6.8 Conditions of Flight Limits 
In different working modes and flight modes, flight limits will differ according to  number of GPS satellites found. 
The following table demonstrates all the cases(√: available; ×:unavailable). 
All  flights  are  restricted  by  height,  distance  and  special  areas  simultaneously.  The  Failsafe  and  Ground  Station 
operations are not restricted to flight limits, but if Ground Station function is used, the flight will be restricted the 
special area limits built in to Ground Station. Refer to the Ground Station manual for details.
