Foreword
About ANAFI Ai
Always transport ANAFI Ai safely stored in its case and always reposition its gimbal protection before storing
it in its case.
ANAFI Ai was designed and optimized to fly as is. Parrot therefore strongly discourages the use of any addon
or accessory which could be mounted on, or attached to ANAFI Ai (feet extensions, buoys, hulls, etc.). In
addition to the overweight they carry for the drone and its motors, they can indeed magnetically disturb
ANAFI Ai and impair its communications.
About the ANAFI Ai ecosystem
In the following pages, the word "ecosystem" refers to the drone (ANAFI Ai), its controller (Skycontroller 4)
and the FreeFlight 7 flying app.
About power lines and pylons
Flying close to power installations may impact the behavior of the drone. Always keep your distances from
power installations such as power lines and pylons. Higher powers carry higher disturbance potential. In any
case, never fly closer than 3 m (9 ft) from a power installation.
About Radiation Field
The proximity of high intensity radiation field may impact the behavior of the drone (e.g. airport radar). Do
not fly closer than 500m from the beam of a high intensity radar. In any case, never fly closer than 50m from
a radar installation.
About Wi-Fi
Parrot asks you to switch off your smartphone’s Wi-Fi connection when flying ANAFI Ai with both the Parrot
Skycontroller 4 and your phone: with this configuration, the drone and the controller communicate through
ANAFI Ai’s Wi-Fi network and activating your phone’s Wi-Fi can only result in interferences.
About GPS
ANAFI Ai does not need a satellite – GPS, Glonass, Galileo – synchronization (or fix) to take off. It can
therefore be piloted indoor and through cluttered areas, stabilized by its onboard sensors.
However, automated and assisted flight modes require both ANAFI Ai and the FreeFlight 7 device
synchronization to geocoordinate satellites – the Parrot Skycontroller 4 alone has no geo-positioning
capacity.
