Warning: Make sure that you have securely connected the AR.Drone battery and that the motor LEDs
are green before connecting your iPhone to the Wi-Fi network of the AR.Drone and before starting a
flight application.
Run the AR.Free flight application to use the AR.Drone in free flight mode.
> The motor LEDs will flash red, one after the other.
> The video feed from the AR.Drone's forward-facing camera will appear on the screen of your iPhone.
Before you begin
Note: We recommend you check out our flying tutorials on ardrone.parrot.com before your first flight.
Positioning the iPhone
Beyond a certain threshold point (~90°
compared to horizontal), movements are not
recognised by the iPhone's accelerometer.
We recommend that the iPhone be held in a
position close to horizontal in order to avoid an
uncomfortable or ineffective position if you
should need to move the AR.Drone backwards
quickly.
The position of the iPhone at the moment when
you press on the left button is taken as its
reference position.
