We are Parrot. Welcome to the team!
With ANAFI Ai, you have chosen the first IoT*-compatible and 4G flying robot, which you can use everywhere
on the go, anytime.
We strongly recommend you read the following information and instructions thoroughly before you get
ANAFI Ai in the air, to make the most of your first 32-minute flight.
The indispensable prerequisites, on the next pages, will not occupy more than 5 minutes of your time: ANAFI
Ai requires the FreeFlight 7 app to fly, and to make sure your drone and controller are fully up to date with
the latest features.
Note that all ecosystem further updates (app, drone, controller) will be packed in future FreeFlight 7
releases. The ecosystem update procedure will therefore always be the same as that described in the next
pages.
As you discover the world of possibilities that ANAFI Ai opens to you, you will fully understand the
importance of mission planning in your workflow.
Have a great read, and many productive hours flying ANAFI Ai.
