The gimbal can tilt the camera within a 85˚ range.
Camera Profile The on-board camera uses the 1/2.3 inch CMOS sensor to capture video up to 1080p at 30 fps with the Spark and 12 megapixel stills. You may choose to record video in either MOV or MP4 formats. Available picture shooting modes include burst, continuous, and interval mode. A live preview of what the camera sees can be monitored on the connected mobile device via the DJI GO 4 app.
Attaching the Propellers Attach the white ringed propellers to the mounting base with white marks. Press the propeller down onto the mounting plate and rotate in the lock direction until it is secured. Attach the other propellers to the mounting bases without marks. Unfold all the propellers blades. Detaching the Propellers Press the propellers down into the motor mount and rotate in the unlock direction. Be aware of the sharp edges of the propellers. Handle with care.
Using the Battery Turning ON/OFF Turning On: Press the Power Button once, then press again and hold for 2 seconds to turn on. The remote controller system status screen will display the current battery level. Turning Off: Press the Power Button once, then press again and hold for 2 seconds to turn off. Checking the Battery Level The Battery Level Indicators display how much power remains.
• • Never insert or remove a battery when it is turned on. Allow battery temperature to drop to room temperature before storing for an extended period. • The charger will stop charging the battery if the battery cell’s temperature is not within the operating range (5°C to 40°C). Vision System and Infrared Sensing System The Infrared Sensing System consists [1] of two 3D infrared modules on front of the aircraft.
Using the Downward Vision System The Downward Vision System is activated automatically when the aircraft is turned on. No further action is required. The Downward Vision System is typically used in indoor environments where GPS is unavailable. Using the Downward Vision System, the aircraft can hover precisely even without GPS. The Downward Vision System may not be able to recognize patterns on the ground in low light (less than 100lux).
4. Tap icon to take off the aircraft automatically. Tap on the screen and use the Virtual Joysticks to navigate the aircraft. Using Virtual Joysticks Ensure the mobile device has been connected to the aircraft before using the Virtual Joysticks. The illustrations below are based on Mode 2 (left stick as throttle). Move the aircraft upwards, downwards or rotate to the left or right by pressing on the left half of the screen.

Place the aircraft in an open, flat area with the battery level indicators facing towards you. Turn on the Intelligent Flight Battery. Launch the DJI GO 4 app and enter the Camera page. Wait until the Aircraft Indicator blinks green. This means the Home Point is recorded and it is now safe to fly. Use Auto Takeoff. 5.
Calibrating the Compass Only calibrate the compass when the DJI GO 4 app or the status indicator prompt you to do so. Observe the following rules when calibrating your compass: DO NOT calibrate your compass where there is a chance of strong magnetic interference, such as magnetite, parking structures, and steel reinforcements underground. DO NOT carry ferromagnetic materials with you during calibration such as cellular phones.
3. Hold the aircraft vertically, with nose pointing downward, and rotate it 360 degrees around the center axis. 4. Re-calibrate the aircraft if the aircraft status indicators blink red. If the Aircraft Status Indicator blinks red and yellow after the calibration procedure, move your aircraft to a different location and try again. DO NOT calibrate the compass near metal objects such as a metal bridge, cars, and scaffolding.
