How To Put DJI Inspire 1 into Travel Mode

When you first unpack your new DJI Inspire 1, the quadcopter will be in travel mode. Once you have unpacked it, fitted the battery, and powered up both the RC transmitter and the Inspire 1, toggle the gear switch 4 times to put the Inspire 1 into flight mode. It is now safe to install the 3-axis gimbal.

Travel Mode via DJI Pilot App

When you come to pack the Inspire 1 away, before turning everything off, carry out these easy steps to return to travel mode.    

1. Remove the gimbal and camera
