2.2 Stopping the Motors
There are two ways to stop the motors.
Method One (Figure 18): After the quadcopter lands, toggle the throttle joystick to the lowest position and then perform CSC, the motors will immediately stop.
Release both joysticks after the motors stop.
Method 2 (Figure 19): After the quadcopter lands, toggle the left joystick to the lowest position and hold for 3 seconds to stop the motor.

● Do not execute CSC during normal ight. This will stop the motors and cause the quadcopter to drop without control.
● Toggle the joysticks quickly and accurately when performing CSC. Release the joysticks simultaneously after the motors starts or stops.
● Shutdown transmitter must be after the quadcopter power off. Otherwise, the quadcopter will enter the return mode, then may case the high-speed rotation
of the propeller.
3 Basic Flight
3.1 Basic Flight Procedures
(1) Place AP9 on a at and open ground, and ensure Tail Indicator faces you.
(2) Power on the Transmitter and Quadcopter one after the other.
(3) Start the motors until the GPS signal is strong enough(the Tail indicator remains on) at GPS mode. Or, start the motors when the status indicator on Transmitter
is blue at NRM mode.
(4) Push the left joystick up slowly for a smooth take-off. Please refer to Transmitter operation instructions for detailed operation procedures.
(5) To land, gently pull down the left joystick to make the quadcopter descend slowly to the ground.
(6) After landing, pull the left joystick to the lowest position and hold for more than 3 seconds until the motors stop.
(7) After motors stop, power off Quadcopter and the Transmitter one after the other.
● During ight if all 4 arm indicators slow blink or fast blink, it indicates the quadcopter has entered a low battery state. The
Transmitter will also make an alarm
sound, please refer to Low Battery Level Alarm Function for details.
● It takes approximately 40~60 seconds, when the GPS signal is strong enough after the quadcopter power on.
3.2 Aerial Photography Tips and Tricks (If camera installed already)
(1) Perform pre-ight checks.
(2) Capture photos and record videos during safe ight status.
(3) Capture photos and record videos in sunny weather with little wind.
(4) Set camera settings as per shooting requirements, such as video resolution, picture size, etc.
(5) Carry out a trial ight before actual ight to help plan the route and frame your photos and videos.
(6) Push the joystick as slowly as possible during ight to ensure the quadcopter ies smoothly.
4 Failsafe Protections
If the Quadcopter loses connection with the Transmitter (i.e., you lose control), the Failsafe mode kicks in and the Automatic Flight Control system will control the
Quadcopter, y it back to the Home Point and land it safely. This reduces chances of losing or crashing the Quadcopter in case the Transmitter signal is lost.
● Home Point: Indicates the Quadcopter's position when the Quadcopter successfully scans the GPS signal.
4.1 Scenarios when Quadcopter enters Failsafe mode
(1) When Transmitter is powered off.
(2) The Quadcopter has own beyond the effective range of the Transmitter signal.
(3) There are obstructions between the Transmitter and the Quadcopter.
(4) There is interference causing a signal problem with the Transmitter.
4.2 Failsafe Procedure
In case you lose control of the Quadcopter during ight, the Quadcopter will automatically follow the below operating procedures:
(1) The Quadcopter automatically slows down and hovers in one location.
(2) If the Quadcopter regains signal from the transmitter within 2 seconds, ight control returns to Normal mode, and the Quadcopter will not enter Failsafe mode
and will not automatically y back to the Home Point.
(3) If the Quadcopter does not regain signal from the transmitter within 2 seconds, the Quadcopter enters Failsafe mode, and initiates automatic ight control to
y back to the Home Point. The Quadcopter will now continue to hover for 15 seconds and evaluate vertical Distance to the Home Point. If the Distance is less
than 25 meters, the Quadcopter will y up vertically to 25 meters higher than the Home Point, and then commence to return. When the Quadcopter reaches the
Home Point it will hover for 5 seconds and then automatically land.
