Pairing ANAFI to a Parrot Skycontroller 3
This procedure is useful to pair a drone and a controller which have never been paired, and to restore the lost pairing
between a drone and a controller.
1.
Check a compatible microSD card is inserted into ANAFI.
2.
Power ANAFI on.
3.
Open the Parrot Skycontroller 3 to power it on.
4.
Plug the drone and the controller together with an USB-A (controller) to USB-C (drone) cable.
5.
The LED of the Parrot Skycontroller 3 flashes briefly in green: it is acknowledging ANAFI.
6.
Wait for synchronization between Parrot Skycontroller 3 and ANAFI (steady dark blue LED on the controller):
check that the left trigger of the Parrot Skycontroller 3
activates the drone’s gimbal to ensure the synch is
complete.
7.
Unplug the controller from the drone.
Issues
What do I do if I experience a connectivity issue (black screen, white noise, thermography camera
activation failure, frozen or lagging stream)?
1.
Check that your device’s wi
-fi is disabled: Parrot even recommends you set your device in Airplane mode
when you fly ANAFI, to minimize the risks of communication disturbance.
2.
Reboot all systems (refer to the relevant procedure in the earlier section of this document).
What do I do if my ANAFI
’s
gimbal does not calibrate?
1.
Hard reset ANAFI (refer to the relevant procedure in the earlier section of this document).
What do I do if my ANAFI does not power on?
1.
Make sure your smart battery is “awake”: plug it to a power source to take it out of wintering mode, and its
LED should start flashing to acknowledge the fact it is charging
–
Parrot recommends you always fully charge
your smart battery before you fly ANAFI.
What do I do if my battery shows a strange behavior (flashing LED, red LED, etc.)?
1.
Reset the smart battery (refer to the relevant procedure in the earlier section of this document).
What do I do if I cannot read properly the information displayed by FreeFlight 6?
1.
Access the settings of your device.
2.
Find the “Display / Text and display size” (or equivalent) options.
3.
Turn down
the “text size”
of your device, its
“display size”, or both to let
FreeFlight 6 accommodate all its
information on your screen.
