ANAFI 4K Drone Questions-a new Parrot ANAFI user

[optiplex_jp]

Hi All,
I am a new Parrot ANAFI 4K drone user, I received a used Parrot ANAFI 4K drone early in this month.
I live in Hong Kong and the Drone Set from my friend (he play the drone in Japan)
I read the user guide but a lot of things not fully understood, thus could some experts teach me ?
Attached are SC3; Drone; FF6 information (I did not do any firmware update after received the drone set)
I use Nokia G42 (without Mobile SIM Card; Google Maps=On; Wifi / BT=Off; Airplane Mode=On; My Position (device)=Off (not tracing)
1) I could not find how to use Control Stick to Take Off and Landing (not use the apps or the SC3 "take off/landing" button explanation inside the user manual. Please teach me!
2) I do not fully understood the purpose of "Skycontroller 3 Calibration", due to there is no any sensor inside, please teach me!

I am going to bring the drone set etc. go out to find an open area to check the GPS receive signal about 2 weeks later.
Perhaps there is other questions will be post in here.....

Thank you very much everybody!
Thanks in Advance !

enable Location on your phone, open the centre mount holder of your sky controller and you will see an up/down arrow below the HOUSE icon.... once you are ready to take off then PRESS the up/down arrow icon to take off, with the SC3 calibration all you down is move the sticks round and round at their extremities, and push all button to ensure they are operating properly..... , you can also calibrate the gimbal with the FF6 flight app....however, you will not be able to purchase the extra WAYPOINTS and FOLLOW ME flight modes as they are no longer available in Play store or Apple store...

Thank you very much your value information !
I read the manual and knew that I can press the "up/down arrow" button/icon to do take off/land the drone, perhaps my poor English make you misunderstanding.
I want to only use the control stick to do take off/landing but not use the "up/down arrow" button/icon. for example...
like some other brands drone after push both control sticks to "5 O'clock and 7 O'clock" at the same time, all motors start rotating then push the Left control stock forward, then the drone will take off, if push the Left control stick backward, the drone will landing and all motors stop to rotating.
There is no any information about that inside the ANAFI user manual.
I wish my explanation is easy understanding due to my poor English.
Thanks and Best Regards !

Sorry, but you can't take off that way.....I tried using the sticks as I was that used to flying my DJI drone.....you have to use the take off button on the SC3 ....

Appreciated your information !
I used to play RC helicopters (there were still no any electronic gyroscopes at that time), we control the RC helicopter with the control sticks......
Maybe I'm not used to the drones control method, but I will try my best to adapt.

But anyway, thank you very much your teaching !
