Aircraft

Spark contains a ight controller, video downlink system, 3D Sensing System, Gimbal and Camera,

propulsion system, and an Intelligent Flight Battery. This section introduces the features of the ight

controller, video downlink system, and other aircraft components.

Flight Modes

The following ight modes are available for Spark:

P Mode (Positioning): P Mode works best when the GPS signal is strong. The aircraft utilizes the GPS

and Vision System to locate itself, automatically stabilize, and navigate between

obstacles. Intelligent Flight Modes such as QuickShot, TapFly and ActiveTrack are

enabled in this mode.

When forward obstacle sensing is enabled and lighting conditions are sufcient,

the maximum ight attitude angle is 15° with a maximum ight speed of 6.7 mph

(10.8 kph). When forward obstacle sensing is disabled, the maximum ight attitude

angle is 15° and the maximum ight speed is 13.4 mph (21.6 kph).

The aircraft will automatically switch to ATTI mode when the GPS signal is weak

and lighting conditions are too dark for the Vision System, it will not be able to

automatically avoid obstacles and only use its barometer for positioning to control

altitude. Intelligent Flight Modes are not available in ATTI mode.

Note: P Mode requires larger stick movements to achieve high speeds.

S Mode (Sport): The aircraft uses GPS for positioning. As forward obstacle sensing is disabled, the

aircraft will not be able to sense and avoid obstacles when in Sport Mode. Intelligent

Flight Modes, Pano Mode and ShallowFocus are not available in Sport Mode.

Note: Aircraft responses are optimized for agility and speed making it more

responsive to stick movements.

The 3D Sensing System is disabled in S Mode (Sport), which means the aircraft will not be able

to automatically avoid obstacles on its route.

The aircraft’s maximum speed and braking distance are signicantly increased in S Mode

(Sport). A minimum braking distance of 30 meters is required in windless conditions.

Descending speed is signicantly increased in S Mode.

The aircraft’s responsiveness is signicantly increased in S Mode (Sport), which means small

stick movements on the remote controller will translate into a large travel distance of the aircraft.

Be vigilant and maintain adequate maneuvering space during ight.

S Mode is only available with a Spark remote controller. S Mode is disabled when ying with a

mobile device.

Use the Flight Mode switch on the remote controller to select aircraft ight modes.
