# Fly Safe

DJI encourages you to**~mjoy** flying your Phantom 3 Professional in asafe, responsible, and amart way. To clo tills, It Is Important to understand some basic flight guidelines, both foryour protection and forthe safety Oftl1oae around you. 1. Fly in OpanAreas: Always fly In locationsthat are free and clear ofbuildings, trees, power lines, and otherobstacles. Do notflY above

or near people oranimals. 2. Maintain Control atAll Times: Even when using DJI autopilot functions such as Auto-Takeoff, Auto-L9.nding, and Auto-Return to Home, alway$ k*Pyour handaon the Remote Controller anel maintain control ofyour 9lrcraft when it is in ffight. 3. Maintain**Un~** Qf Sight: Kl;lSpyour aircraft in 8ightatell times, and avoidtly1ng behind buildings orotherobstaclesthatma'yblockyourv1e'v\l, 4. MonitorYourAltitude: Forthe safety offull-si<:ed alroraft and other airtraffic, always fly at altitudes less than 400 feet (i 20 meters)

above ground Javel, or In line with your local laws and regulatione.**Via~** http://flysa.fe.dji.com/no-fly for more Information on**cr~lcal** safety features such as No-RyZones. 

### • Calibrating the Compass: Me.ke sure to calibrate the compass at every new flight location. The compass is very sensitive to electromagnetic Interference, which**~n** cause abnormal compass data, leading to poor illght performance or even fallure. Regular calibration is required for optimal 

### performance. 1. DO NOT calibrate yourcompass wherethere Is achance ofstrong magnetic in1erference, such as magnettte, parking structures, and

steel reinforcements underground. 2. DO NOTcarryferromagnetic materials with you during calibration such as Keys or cellular phones. 

### a. DO NOTcalibre!;$ be$ide maeeive metal objects. 4. If the Aircraft Status Indicators are showing soUd red, than try to calibrate again. If they are blinking red and yellow alternately after

placing tMaircraft on tha ground, the compass has detected m9gnetlc Interference. Change your location. • Environmental Considerations: 1. Do not ffy in severe**we~ther condition~.**  Thi::; indud$$ high wind::; (:speeds of22 mph or 10 m/:s or more), snow, rain, and fog. 2. Onlyfly In opan areaa. Tall buildings and steal structures may affect the accuracyofthe on-board compass and GPS signal. 3. Avoid ob-stacles, crowds, high,voltage power lines, treee, $lid bodl$$ ofwater. 4. Minimize electromagnetic interference by avoiding areas with high levels of electromagnetism, Including mobile phone baae stations,

radio transmission towers. orWI-Fi hotspots. 5. Aircraft and battery performance are subject to**enviror~mental** factors such as air density and temperature. Be vefY carefulwhen

flying 19,600 feet (6 km) or more above sea level, as battety and aircraft performance may not be at peak**effici~ancy.** 6. Tha Phantom 3 Professional cannot operata In PMode or use GPS at polar latitudes. Only A Til Mode and the VIsion Positioning Byatem will be operational.
• P Mode: Inthle mode, the Phantom 3 Professional can use GPS and the VIsion Positioning system, allowing tt to hoveraccurately In position Indoors and out:. 'Mlen GPS Is available, a Home Point will b8 locked so that the Phantom 3 Profeoolone.l CllJ"I Retum to Home if the Remota Controller sj,JnaJ is lost.

# ~ To enable P Mode, togglethe Flight Mode Swttch



# CJ tothe P position.
There are three states In P mode: P..GPS: GPSworks bestwhen outdoorsand in awideopen**:!~rea.** Your Phantom 3 PrOfessional uses GPS to hover in place when 1here la a strong GPS J<!ignal. P·OPTI: IfGPS Is notavallable, the aircraftcan usetheVIsion Poamoning system to hoveraccurately. P-ATTI: Neither GPS nor the Vl$1on Positioning syst$m**~** available. The aircraft will only use its barometer for altitude and other on,board $8!1sors for attitude stabilization. Note tllat me Vl&lon Poeftlonlng :sy:stl!)m may not work; propemy wnen the Phantorn 3 Professional Is nying over water, oversurfaces without aclear pattern, or In a low-llgl1t environment.

### The Phantom 3 Professional's flight controller featutas several important upgrades, including a newflight mode. Safety 

### modes include 

### Failsafe and Return-to-Home. Tl'18St;;j 

### features ensure 

### tha safe return of your aircraft If the control signal 

### is lost. 

### lhe flight controller 

### can also save critical flight data from each flight to the**on~board** storage device.



### Three flight modes are available. The 

### details of each flight mode are found 

### below: P-mode (Positioning) : P-mode works 

### best when GPS signal is 

### strong. There are three different states of P-mode, which will be automatically selected 

### by the Phantom 3 Professional depending on signa.! strength of 

### GPS and Vision Positioning sensors : P-GPS: GPS and Vision Positioning both ere available. The aircraft Is uslng GPS for positioning. P-OPT!; Vision Positioning Is 

### available but the GPS sighal strength is not**~ufficient.** 

### The aircraft is using onlythe 

### Vision Positioning System for positioning.**P~ATTI:** 

### Neither GPS nor Vision Positioning is available. The aircraft is using only its 

### barometer for positioning, 

### so only altitude can 

### be stabilized. A-mode 

### (Attitude); GPS and 

### Vision Positioning System are not ussd

### for stabilization. The aircraft 

### only uses its barometer. The aircraft can 

### still automatically return to the home point 

### ifthe control signal is lost and the Home Point was recorded successfully. F·mode (Function): Intelligent Orientation Control (IOC) is activated in this mode. For rnore information about 

### IOC, refer to 

### the lOC section in 

### the Appe11dix.

### Using VIsion 

### Positioning Vision Positioning is activated automatically when the Phantom 3 Professional is turned on. No further action is required. VIsion Positioning is typically used 

### in indoor environments, where GPS is unavailable. Using 

### the sensors 

### that are built into the Vision Positioning system, the 

### Phantom 3 

### Professional can hover precisely even without 

### GPS.

Follow the steps below

### to usa Vision Positioning: 

### 1. Toggle 

### the flight mode switch 

### toP-mode. 2. Place the aircraft 

### on aflat surface. Note thatthe Vision Positioning system 

### cannot work properly on surfect!s without clear pattern varfations. 3. Turn on the aircraft. The aircraft status indicator 

### will flash green two times, which indicates the Vi$lon Positioning system 

### is ready, Gently 

### push the throttle upto 

### liftoff and the aircraftwill hover 

### in place. 

## ,Lh The performance of your Vision Positioning System is affected by the 

### surface over which it is flying. The 

### ultrasonic sensors may not 

### be able to accurately measure 

### distances when operating above sound-absorbing materials. ln addition, the camera may not function correctly in suboptimal environments. The aircraft 

### will switch from P-mode 

### to A-mode automatically if neither 

### GPS nor Vision Positioning 

### System are 

### available. Operate the aircraft with great caution in the 

### following situations: • Flying over monochrome surfaces (e.g. pure black, pure white, 

### pure red, pure green)

. • Flying over

### a highly reflective surfaces. • Flying at high speeds(over 8 

### m/s at 2 

### rneters or over4 m/s at I meter). 

### • Flying over water ortransparent surfaces. • Flying over moving surfaces or objects. • Flying 

### in an area where 

### the lighting changes frequently ordrastically. • Rying 

### over extremely dark (lux 

### <iO) or bright 

### (lux > 

### 1 00,000) surfaces

. • Flying 

### over surfaces that can absorb sound waves (e.g. thickcarpet}. 

### • Flying over surfaces without clear patterns ortexture. 

### • Flying over surfaces with identical repE!ating patterns 

### ortextures (e.g. tiles with same 

### design). • Flying over inclined surfaces that 

### will deflect sound wavf;ls away from the aircraft. :\):

.. Keep the sensors clean at all 

### times. Oirt or other debris may adversely affect the effectiveness of the sensors
. • Vision Positioning is only 

### effective when the aircraft is at altitudes of 0to 3 meters. • The Vision Positioning System may not function properly when the aircraft Is flying over water

. • The Vision Positioning System may not be able to 

### recognize pattern on the ground in low light

conditions (less than 100 lux). • Do not use other ultrasonic 

### devices with frequency of40 KHz when Vision Positioning system is

in 

### operation. • Vision Positioning

### your compass 

### where there is any possibility of strong magnetic interference. Sources of potential interference include magnetite, parking structures, and 

### subterranean 1:! 

### metal structures CQ :::r • Do 

### not carry ferromagnetic materials 

### with you during caJibration such as keys or cellular phones

.



### .. Do not calibrate in direct proximity to large metal objects. 

### • DO NOT calibrate indoors.


### Calibration Procedures Choose an open area

### to carry outthe following procedures. 1. Ensure that the compass is calibrated. If you did not calibrate the compass as part of yoUr pre-flight preparations, or 

### if you have moved to a new location since the last calibration, tap "Mode'' in the app and select ''Compass Calibration'', then followthe on-screen instructions. 2. Hold the aircraft horizontally and rotate 360 degrees. The Aircraft Status Indicators will display a solid

# Flight Modes, Functions and Warnings Flight Modes

Toavoid &erlous Injuryand properly damage, observethefollowing rule: 1) Do NOT switch from Pmode to either A mode or F mode unless you are sufficiently familiar with the aircraft's behaviortot each flight mode, slnca dlsttbllng GPS rnay resuH In baing unableto land 

### thaaircraft

### safely.

P mode Is 

### preferred tor 

### most flying scenarios. Users can switch to A mode where and when P mode is unavailable. Be aware that some features are NOT available for A mode, and therefore be EXTRA cautious when flying in Amodei) P mode {Positioning): P mode works best when the GPS signal is strong. There are three different states 

### of

### Pmode, which will be automatically$elected by the Phantom 3 depending on GPS signal strength and VIsion Positioning sensors: a} P-GPS: GPS and Vision Positioning are both available, and the aircraft is using GPS for positioning. b) P-OPTI: If GPS is NOT available. the aircraftwill use the Vision Posit!oning System to hover accurately, Note that the Vision Positioning System may NOT work properly when the Phantom 3 is flying over water, over surfaceawithout

### a. clear pattern, or in a low lightenvironment. c) P-ATTI: When neither GPS nor Vision Positioning ls available, the aircraft is using only its barometer for positioning, so only altitude is controlled. 2) A mode (Attitude): The GPS and Vision Positioning System are 

### NOr used for positioning. The aircraft only uses its barometer to maintain altitude. If it is still receiving a GPS signal, the aircraft can automatically return home ifthe Remote Controller signal is lostand 

### ifthe Home Point has been recorded successfully. 3) F rnoda (Function}; Intelligent Orientation Control (ICC) Is activated in this mode. Ensure you are familiar with 100functions before use. Ifyou intend 

### to switch to modes that disable GPS as1:listance (e.g., A mode), you are required to accept the prompted disclaimer to enable this ftmctlon. If this function is enabled, you further understand and agree that data including but not limited to flight telemetry data and function records could be uploaded to and maintained on aOJI designated server.



## Failsafe·and Return to Home 

## ( NOTICg] 1) The Return to Hamsfeature will NOTwork Ifthe GPS signal is insufficient or if GPS is not active. 2) Press the RTH (Return 

### to Home) Button on the remote controller to bring the aircraft back to the Home Point instead ofturning off the remote controller. 3) Tall buildings 

### may adversely affect the Failsafe function. Please adjust the aircre:ft location, altitude and speed while returning home to avoid obstacles. 4)**Mak~** sure to always 

### fly the aircraftwithin thetransmission range 

### ofthe remote controller. 5) When updating the Home Point, do NOTblockthe GPS signal of the remote controller and ensurethe newHome Point is correcton the live map. 

### 6) Only usethe Failsafe 

### and Return to Home

### functions in case of emergency, 

### as they may 

### be affected 

### by the weather, the environment or any nearby magneticfields. 7) The aircraft cannot avoid obstacles during the Failsafe RTH; therefore it is important to set an appropriate J=ailsafe altitude before each flight. 8) When flying indoors, the aircraft cannot perform precision hovering when flying above the surfaces that do 

### not have aclear 

### pauern. Referto the ''VIsion Positioning System" section for complete 

### Indoorflying criteria.


## Low Battery 

## ( NOTICE ] 1) When the Critical Battery Level Warning activates and the aircraft 

### is descending automatically, you may push the throttle up to maintain the**~;~iroraft's** altitude and navigate it to a more appropriate location for landing. 2) When battery warnings are triggered. promptly bring the aircraft back

### to the Home Point or land to avoid losing powE!r du(ing flight and causing damage1o the aircraft, property, animals, 

### and people.


## Vision.Positioning System 

## ( NOTICI{.) 1) 

### The Vision Positioning System cannot work properly over surte.ces that do 

### NOT have pattern variations. Tha affective altitude for the Vision Positioning System 

### to function correctly is less than 

### 2.5 meters above ground level (AGL). 2) The Vision Positioning System may NOTfunction properlywhen the aircraft isflying overwater. 3) Ke$p ydur pets away from the aircraft when the VIsion Positioning System is activated, as the sonar sensors emit a high frequency sound that is only audible to some pets. 4) Note thatthe Vision Positioning System may NOTfunction properlywhen the aircraft is flying too faSt ortoo 

### low. 5) Operate the aircraft cautiouslywhen 

### in anyof the following situations: a) Flying over monochrome surfaces (e.g., pure black, purewhite, pure red, pure**gr~en).** b) Flying over highly reflective surfaces; c) Flying at high speeds (over8m/s at 2 meters or**ov~r**4rn/s at i rneter); d) Flying over water or transparent surfaces; e) Flying over moving surfaces or objects: f) Flying in an areawhere the lighting changesfrequently or drastically; g) Flying over extremely dark (lux< 10) orbright (lux> 10,000)surfaces; h) Flying over surfaces that can absorb sound waves (e.g., thickcarpet). i ) Flying oversurfaces without clear patterns ortexture; j) Flying over Sl.lrfaces wlth identical repeating patterns ortextures (e.g, tiles with same design); k) Flying over inclined surfaces thatwill deflect

### sound waves awayfrom tht; airoraft 6) In the event or loss ofthe remote controller's signal, the aircraft will hovertor 8seconds and then awto-land if it is in ··p•• mode.
