1. Place the drone on a level surface, power on the remote
controller, then the drone. Wait for the aircraft to connect to the
remote controller.
2. Hold the left joystick down to its lowest position, then quickly
move the right joystick left to right, back and forth, until the front
and rear status indicators flash alternately, or the remote
controller screen prompts "WARNING aircraft Initializing,
Please Wait". The drone will now perform gyroscope
calibration. Now release the joysticks. This process will be
completed in 20 seconds. Do not move the drone during this
process.
3. When the front status indicators fast-flashing red and the rear
status indicators turn solid green or the "Initializing
…
" prompt
disappears, power off and restart the drone. Gyroscope
calibration is complete.
1) Never calibrate the gyroscope on a boat or other moving platforms. 2) When the
drone is floating on water, it may occasionally prompt gyroscope calibration, which is
normal and can be ignored. 3) If the calibration fails, the "Initializing
…
" prompt will not
disappear, please follow the steps, and try to calibrate again.
IMU Calibration
The Inertial Management Unit (IMU) provides the raw data of the aircraft's attitude in
space in nine dimensions. The IMU accelerometer sensor is critical to balance the aircraft
in flight.
Proceed IMU calibration for the following situations:
•
The drone cannot arm (unlock) the motors after the compass calibration.
•
The drone sways or drifts excessively during hovering in GPS mode.
•
The drone has been crashed or subjected to the heavy shaking.
•
The remote controller screen prompts "WARNING IMU error - Calibrate IMU".
