## Return-to-Home (RTH) The Return-to-Home (RTH) function brings the aircraft back to the last recorded Home Point. There are three types of RTH procedures: Smart RTH, Low Battery RTH, and Failsafe RTH. This section describes these three scenarios in detail. GPS Description

Home Point If a strong GPS signal was acquired before takeoff, the Home Point is the location from which the aircraft was launched. The GPS signal strength is indicated by the GPS icon ( ). The aircraft status indicator will blink rapidly when the home point is recorded.



## Smart RTH Use the RTH button on the remote controller (refer to “RTH button” on page 26 for more information) or tap the RTH button in the DJI Pilot app and follow the on-screen instructions when GPS is available to ini

tiate Smart RTH. The aircraft will then automatically return to the last recorded Home Point. You may use the remote controller’s control sticks to control the aircraft’s position to avoid a collision during the Smart RTH process. Press and hold the Smart RTH button once to start the process, and press the Smart RTH button again to terminate the procedure and regain full control of the aircraft.© 2015 DJI.

Low battery level warning The battery power is low. Please land the aircraft. Aircraft status indicator blinks RED slowly. Tap “Go-home” to have the aircraft return to the Home point and land automatically, or “Cancel” to resume normal flight. If no action is taken, the aircraft will automatically go home and land after 10 seconds. Remote controller will sound an alarm. Fly the aircraft back and land it as soon as possible, then stop the motors and replace the battery.

## Low Battery RTH The low battery level failsafe is triggered when the DJI Intelligent Flight Battery is depleted to a point that may affect the safe return of the aircraft. Users are advised to return home or land the aircraft immediately when prompted. The DJI Pilot app will display a notice when a low battery warning is triggered. The aircraft will automatically return to the Home Point if no action is taken after a ten-second countdown. The user can cancel the RTH procedure by pressing the RTH button on the remote controller. The thresholds for these warnings are automatically determined based on the aircraft’s current altitude and distance from the Home Point.
The aircraft will land automatically if the current battery level can only support the aircraft long enough to descend from its current altitude. The user can still use the remote controller to alter the aircraft’s orientation during the landing process.

The aircraft cannot avoid obstruction during the Failsafe RTH, therefore, it is important to set an TVJUBCMF'BJMTBGFBMUJUVEFCFGPSFFBDInJHIU-BVODIUIF%+*1JMPUBQQBOEFOUFSi$BNFSBwBOE select “MODE > Advanced Settings > Failsafe mode” to set the Failsafe altitude. The aircraft will stop its ascent and return to the Home Point immediately if the throttle stick is moved during the Failsafe RTH procedure. 

## Failsafe RTH If the Home Point was successfully recorded and the compass is functioning normally, Failsafe RTH willbe automatically activated if the remote controller signal is lost for more than three seconds. The Returnto-Home process may be interrupted and the operator may regain control of the aircraft if the remote controller signal connection is re-established.


### Failsafe Illustration When Critical battery level warning is triggered and the aircraft begins to land automatically, you may push the throttle upward to make the aircraft hover at its current altitude, giving you an opportunity to navigate to a more appropriate landing location.

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.

The performance of your Vision Positioning System is affected by the surface over which it is nZJOH5IFVMUSBTPOJDTFOTPSTNBZOPUCFBCMFUPBDDVSBUFMZNFBTVSFEJTUBODFTXIFOPQFSBUJOH above sound-absorbing materials. In 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). 'MZJOHPWFSBIJHIMZSFnFDUJWFTVSGBDFT Flying at high speeds(over 8 m/s at 2 meters or over 4 m/s at 1 meter). Flying over water or transparent surfaces. Flying over moving surfaces or objects. Flying in an area where the lighting changes frequently or drastically. Flying over extremely dark (lux < 10) or bright (lux > 100,000) surfaces. Flying over surfaces that can absorb sound waves (e.g. thick carpet). Flying over surfaces without clear patterns or texture. Flying over surfaces with identical repeating patterns or textures (e.g. tiles with the same design). 'MZJOHPWFSJODMJOFETVSGBDFTUIBUXJMMEFnFDUTPVOEXBWFTBXBZ GSPNUIFBJSDSBGU Keep the sensors clean at all times. Dirt or other debris may adversely affect the effectiveness of the sensors.

## Flight Recorder Flight data is automatically recorded to the internal storage of the aircraft. This includes flight telemetry, aircraft status information, and other parameters. To access these data, connect the aircraft to the PC through the Micro-USB port and launch the DJI Pilot app. 

## Attaching and Detaching the Propellers Use only DJI approved propellers with your Phantom 3 Professional. The grey and black nuts on the propeller indicate where they should be attached and in which direction whey should spin. To attach the propellers properly, match the nut color with the motor axis color

## DJI Intelligent Flight Battery The DJI Intelligent Flight Battery has a capacity of 4480 mAh, a voltage of 15.2 V, and a smart charge/ discharge functionality. It should only be charged using an appropriate charger that has been approved by DJI.

Intelligent Flight Battery Charger
The Intelligent Flight Battery must be fully charged before using it for the first time. Refer to "Charging the Intelligent Flight Battery" for more information. Be aware that the output power of the supplied Phantom 3 Professional charger is 100W.



### DJI Intelligent Flight Battery Functions 1. Battery Level Display: the LED indicators display the current battery level. 2. Battery Life Display: the LEDs display the current battery power cycle. 3. Auto-Discharging Function: To prevent swelling, the battery automatically discharges to below 65% of

total power when it is idle for more than ten days. It takes around two days to discharge the battery to 65%. It is normal to feel moderate heat being emitted from the battery during the discharge process. Discharge thresholds can be set in the DJI Pilot app. 4. Balanced Charging: Automatically balances the voltage of each battery cell when charging. 5. Overcharge Protection: Charging automatically stops when the battery is fully charged. 6. Temperature Detection: The battery will only charge when the temperature is between 0°C (32°F) and

40°C (104°F). 7. Over Current Protection: The battery stops charging when high amperage (more than 8 A) is detected. 8. Over Discharge Protection: To prevent over-discharge damage, discharging automatically stops when

the battery voltage reaches 12 V. 9. Short Circuit Protection: Automatically cuts the power supply when a short circuit is detected.
