# 5 L o w B a t t e ry L e v e l W a r n i n g F u n c t i o n The low battery level warning alerts users when the battery is close to depletion during flight. When it appears, users should promptly fly back and land to avoid accidental damage. The Phantom 2 Vision  has two levels of low battery level warning. The default battery level warning thresholds are 30% (low battery level warning) and 15% (critical low battery level warning) respectively.

# 6 F l i g h t L i m i t s All unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) operators should abide by all regulations from such organizations as the ICAO (International Civil Aviation Organization) and their own national airspace regulations. For safety reasons, the flight limits function is enabled by default to help users use this product safely and legally. The flight limits function includes height, distance limits and No Fly Zones. In Ready to Fly mode, height, distance limits and No Fly Zones work together to manage flight. In Ready to Fly (non-GPS) status, only height limits work and flights cannot go higher than 120m. Default parameters in Assistant Software are compliant within the definitions of class G ruled by ICAO. (Refer to Airspace Classification to get more details). As each country has its own rules, make sure to configure these parameters to comply with these rules before flying

If the Remote Controller stick(s) mid-point margin of error is too big, the motors will fail to start when you execute the CSC and the Phantom will not take off. The below are some possible fixes for this. (1) One of the Remote Controller’s stick positions (except the throttle stick) is not centered when powering on the Phantom 2 Vision  . S o l u t i o n : Place all Remote Controller sticks at their mid-point positions and then power cycle the Phantom 2 Vision  to re-record the mid-point. (2) The Remote Control sticks have been trimmed, leading to a deviation in the mid-point position. S o l u t i o n : Use Assistant to perform a Remote Control calibration. (1) Connect to Assistant Software, tap Basic -> RC -> Command Sticks Calibration and push all Remote Control sticks through their complete travel range to see if any stick cannot reach its outermost position. (b) Power cycle the Phantom 2 Vision  . Power cycling is required. (c) Re-attempt Remote Controller calibration in Assistant. If the above solutions do not solve yourissue, please send your Remote Control to DJI Customer service for repair.

S o l u t i o n : Turn off the Remote Controller to trigger the Failsafe mode and the aircraft will start to fly back, descend, and land at the Home point. Please make sure there are no obstacles between the Phantom and the home point and that you are familiar with the procedure for regaining control. 

### 3 . 5 W i - F i c o n n e c t i o n fa i l s a l l t h e t i m e . S o l u t i o n : Double check the current Wi-Fi connection status of the mobile device. The mobile device may be connecting to other Wi-Fi networks after a connection breaks with the Phantom 2 Vision  . 

### 3 . 6 F i l e s fa i l t o s y n c h r o n i z e . S o l u t i o n : Video files that are too large (file sizes close to 4GB) cannot be synchronized to the mobile device. Some mobile devices do not support the synchronization of the 1080i60 video files.

### W i - F i E x t e n d e r . S o l u t i o n : Some Android devices do not allow for both a Wi-Fi connection and a mobile data connection at the same time. When trying to connect to the Phantom 2 Vision  Wi-Fi network, most devices will check whether an Internet connection has a certain Wi-Fi setting enabled, e.g. Auto network switch or Test for Internet connection. If no Internet connection is found because the Phantom 2 Vision  creates a non-routable connection it will drop the Phantom 2 Vision  Wi-Fi network connection and scan for the next available connection. Example: For the Samsung Note 3, carry out the following procedures to solve this issue. Tap Settings -> Wi-Fi, and then tap the “Menu” button. Select “Advanced” then uncheck the “Auto network switch”. You might see a warning that indicates the Internet connection is unstable this message can be ignored.
