TM
2.0technology,oeringamaximumtransmissionrangeof6mi(10km)and
videoqualityofupto720pfromtheaircrafttotheDJIFlyapponamobiledevice.Theremotecontroller
worksatboth2.4GHzand5.8GHz,andiscapableofselectingthebesttransmissionchannel
automaticallywithoutlatency.Theaircraftandcameracaneasilybecontrolledusingtheonboard
buttons.
DJIMini2hasamaximumightspeedof36mph(57.6kph)andamaximumighttimeof31minutes,
whilethemaximumruntimeoftheremotecontrollerissixhours.
Preparing the Aircraft
Allaircraftarmsarefoldedbeforetheaircraftispackaged.Followthestepsbelowtounfoldtheaircraft.
1.Removethepropellerholder.
2.Removethegimbalprotectorfromthecamera.
3.Inthefollowingorder,unfoldthefrontarms,reararms,andallthepropellers.
Maximumighttimewastestedinanenvironmentwithnowindwhileyingataconsistent10.5mph
(17kph)andthemaximumightspeedwastestedatsealevelaltitudewithnowind.Thesevalues
areforreferenceonly.
Theremotecontrollerreachesitsmaximumtransmissiondistance(FCC)inawide-openareawith
noelectromagneticinterferenceatanaltitudeofapprox.400ft(120m).Themaximumtransmission
distancereferstothemaximumdistancethattheaircraftcanstillsendandreceivetransmissions.It
doesnotrefertothemaximumdistancetheaircraftcanyinasingleight.Themaximumruntime
wastestedinalaboratoryenvironmentandwithoutchargingthemobiledevice.Thisvalueisfor
referenceonly.
5.8GHzisnotsupportedinsomeregions.Thisfrequencybandwillautomaticallybedisabledin
theseregions.Observelocallawsandregulations.

IntelligentFlightBattery.
Flight Modes
DJIMini2hasthreeflightmodes,plusafourthflightmodethattheaircraftswitchestoincertain
scenarios.FlightmodescanbeswitchedviatheFlightModeswitchontheremotecontroller.
Normal Mode:TheaircraftutilizesGPSandtheDownwardVisionSystemtolocateitselfandstabilize.
IntelligentFlightModeisenabledinthismode.WhentheGPSsignalisstrong,theaircraftusesGPSto
locateitselfandstabilize.WhentheGPSisweakandthelightingconditionsaresucient,theaircraft
usestheDownwardVisionSystemtolocateitselfandstabilize.WhentheDownwardVisionSystemis
enabledandlightingconditionsaresucient,themaximumightaltitudeangleis25°andthemaximum
ightspeedis10m/s.
Sport Mode:InSportmode,theaircraftusesGPSandtheDownwardVisionSystemforpositioning.In
Sportmode,aircraftresponsesareoptimizedforagilityandspeedmakingitmoreresponsivetocontrol
stickmovements.Themaximumightspeedis16m/s,maximumascentspeedis5m/s,andmaximum
descentspeedis3.5m/s.
Cine Mode:CinemodeisbasedonNormal modeandtheightspeedislimited,makingtheaircraft
morestableduringshooting.Themaximumightspeedis6m/s,maximumascentspeedis2m/s,and
maximumdescentspeedis1.5m/s.
TheaircraftautomaticallychangestoAttitude(ATTI)modewhentheDownwardVisionSystemis
unavailableordisabledandwhentheGPSsignalisweakorthecompassexperiencesinterference.
WhentheDownwardVisionSystemisunavailable,theaircraftcannotpositionitselforbrake
automatically,whichincreasestheriskofpotentialighthazards.InATTImode,theaircraftmaybemore
easilyaectedbyitssurroundings.Environmentalfactorssuchaswindcanresultinhorizontalshifting,
whichmaypresenthazards,especiallywhenyinginconnedspaces.
ThemaximumspeedandbrakingdistanceoftheaircraftsignicantlyincreaseinSportmode.A
minimumbrakingdistanceof30misrequiredinwindlessconditions.
DescentspeedsignicantlyincreasesinSportmode.Aminimumbrakingdistanceof10misrequired
inwindlessconditions.
TheresponsivenessoftheaircraftsignicantlyincreasesinSportmode,whichmeansasmallcontrol
stickmovementontheremotecontrollertranslatesintotheaircraftmovingalargedistance.Bevigilant
andmaintainadequatemaneuveringspaceduringight.
DuringvideomodeinNormalorCinemode,theightspeedislimitedwhenthepitchofthegimbal
isnear-90°or0°inordertoensureshootingisstable.Iftherearestrongwinds,therestrictionwill
bedisabledtoimprovethewindresistanceoftheaircraft.Asaresult,thegimbalmayvibratewhile

Failsafe RTH
IftheHomePointwassuccessfullyrecordedandthecompassisfunctioningnormally,FailsafeRTH
automaticallyactivatesaftertheremotecontrollersignalislostformorethan11seconds.
Whenthermwareisupdatedtov1.1.0.0andabove,theaircraftwillybackwardsfor50monits
originalightrouteandascendtothepresetRTHaltitudetoenterStraightLineRTH.Theaircraftenters

2. RTHistriggered.
3. Iftheaircraftislessthan20mfromtheHomePointwhenRTHbegins,itwillhoverinplaceandnot

4. AfterreachingtheHomePoint,theaircraftlandsandthemotorsstop.
TheaircraftcannotreturntotheHomePointiftheGPSsignalisweakorunavailable.IftheGPSsignal
becomesweakorunavailableafterRTHistriggered,theaircraftwillhoverinplaceforawhilebefore

Calibrating the Compass
Itisrecommendedtocalibratethecompassinthefollowingsituationswhenyingoutdoors:
1. Flyingatalocationfurtherthan31miles(50km)awayfromthelocationtheaircraftwaslastown.
2. Theaircrafthasnotbeenownformorethan30days.
3. AcompassinterferencewarningappearsinDJIFlyand/ortheaircraftstatusindicatorblinksredand
yellowalternatively.
DONOTcalibratethecompassinlocationswheremagneticinterferencemayoccursuchasclose
tomagnetitedepositsorlargemetallicstructuressuchasparkingstructures,steelreinforced
basements,bridges,cars,orscaolding.
DONOTcarryobjectsthatcontainferromagneticmaterialssuchasmobilephonesneartheaircraft
duringcalibration.
Itisnotnecessarytocalibratethecompasswhenyingindoors.
Calibration Procedure
Chooseanopenareatocarryoutthefollowingprocedure.
1. TapSystemSettingsinDJIFly,selectSafety,thenCalibrate,andfollowtheon-screeninstructions.
Theaircraftstatusindicatorissolidyellow,indicatingcalibrationhasstarted.
2. Holdtheaircrafthorizontallyandrotateit360°.Theaircraftstatusindicatorwillturnsolidgreen.
3. Holdtheaircraftverticallyandrotateit360°aroundaverticalaxis.
4. Iftheaircraftstatusindicatorblinksred,thecalibrationhasfailed.Changeyourlocationandtrythe
calibrationprocedureagain.

ApromptwillappearinDJIFlyifcompasscalibrationisrequiredbeforetakeo.
Theaircraftcantakeoimmediatelyoncecalibrationiscomplete.Ifyouwaitmorethanthree
minutestotakeoaftercalibration,youmayneedtocalibrateagain.
Updating Firmware
WhenyouconnecttheaircraftorremotecontrollertoDJIFly,youwillbenotifiedifanewfirmware
updateisavailable.Toupdate,connectthemobiledevicetotheinternetand follow the on-screen
instructions.Notethatthefirmwarecannotbeupdatediftheremotecontrollerisnotlinkedtothe
