Re: Exemption Request under Section 333 of the FAA Reform Act and Part 11 of the 

Federal Aviation Regulations 

Dear Sir or Madam: 

Pursuant to Section 333 of the FAA Modernization and Reform Act of 2012 (the 

"Reform Act") and 14 C.F.R. Part 11, C Three Photography LLC, seeks an exemption 

from Federal Aviation Regulations ("FARs") detailed below for the following described 

Small Unmanned Aerial System (sUAS) which includes an Unmanned Aircraft (UA) and 

ground station-based equipment and crew: 

THE UNMANNED AIRCRAFT (UA): 

*A lightweight (6.5 lb gross weight with all on-board equipment), manufactured by DJI, 

Phantom 3 Pro that includes the following equipment in flight; 

* An on-board flight computer with GPS navigation and location ability that receives 

signals for flight controls from a ground-based transmitter/controller; 

* An on-board camera capable of capturing imagery in the form of full color, high 

definition still photos and video; 

* An on-board telemetry system that delivers flight data from the on-board flight 

computer to the on-board radio transmitter including altitude AGL, horizontal and 

vertical speed, compass direction of flight and direction back to its launch site; 

*A 2.4GHz on-board radio transmitter that transmits live video from the on-board 

camera plus all the flight data from the telemetry system described above; 

THE GROUND STATION BASED PART OF THE SYSTEM: 

*A Pilot in Command (PIC) in operational control of a flight operation from beginning to 

end and who controls the UA while in the air; 

*A 2.4GHz radio transmitter/controller operated by the PIC to control the UA while in 

flight; 

* A radio receiver receiving live video and flight data from the on-board camera and 

computer projects it all together onto a screen for the PIC to view during flight; 

* A Visual Observer (VO) is a person who provides a second pair of eyes to visually 

track the UA while in flight. 
The requested exemption would support an application for a commercial Certificate of 

Authorization to use the above described sUAS System to support aerial photography 

and video primarily of real property in order to: 

* Provide aerial views of residential property already listed with or to be listed with a 

Multiple Listing Service 

* Provide aerial views of commercial properties already listed with or to be listed with 

the MLS 

*To work directly with Real Estate Brokers, Lenders and Appraisers and all of the 

above listed affiliates to obtain aerial views for valuations, marketing and overviews of 

topography. 

*To work with private parties and provide unique still and video of high quality for 

personal use. 

The UA, powered by batteries, is smaller, lighter and more maneuverable than larger 

aircraft running on combustible fuel, it operates at lower altitudes with no people on 

board and will thereby reduce current risk levels and thereby enhance safety and 

diminish the likelihood of death or serious bodily injury. With a small payload and 

maximum flight time of only 23 minutes, this offers little or no risk to national security or 

the general public. 

Low level oblique photos and video from several angles are far more effective than 

ground-based imagery for displaying the characteristics of large, complex properties 

with several buildings and large trees. The alternative could be to charter a full-sized 

helicopter for this purpose, which has proven more costly than many potential clients 

are able to afford. The benefits of reduced cost and improved quality of presentation 

from the UA will be valuable to and benefit many buyers and sellers of real property and 

marine property. 

Additionally, we request that we be allowed to use our system to benefit first responders 

nearby who might require assistance, including fire fighters, the police, the sheriff, et al., 

while remaining subject to all limitations cited in this application as we do so. 

The sUAS System will be operated in the field with both a PIC and a VO in accordance 

with FAA Policy N 8900.227 Section 14 "Operational Requirements for UAS" and with 

the following Restrictions: 

1) No flight will be made with a UA Gross weight exceeding 55 pounds; 

2) All operations must occur in FAA Class G airspace unless prior approval to operate 

in other classes has been received from the controlling ATC, at no more than 400ft 

AGL, at an 

airspeed of no more than 50 knots and no further than 3/4 NM from the PIC; 

3) All operations must utilize a visual observer (VO). The VO and PIC must be able to 

communicate by voice at all times during a flight operation; 

4) Operations will be restricted to flights over property with the permission of the 

property owner; 

5) The PIC must have accumulated and logged, in a manner consistent with 14 CFR § 

61.51 (b), a minimum of 100 flight cycles and 25 hours of total time as a UA rotorcraft 
pilot and at least ten hours logged as a UA pilot with a similar UA type; 

6) The sUAS System will not be operated over densely populated areas; 

7) The sUAS System will not be operated at air shows; 

8) The sUAS System will not be operated over any open-air assembly of people; 

9) The sUAS System will not be operated over heavily trafficked roads; 

1 0) The sUAS System will not be operated within 5 NM of an airport or heliport without 

the prior approval of the controlling ATC; 

11) Operations will be restricted to day only and weather conditions equivalent to VFR; 

12) The PIC will brief the VO and property owner about the operation and risk before 

the first flight at each new location; 

13) No flight may be made without a Pre-Flight Inspection by the PIC before each 

operation to ascertain that the UA is in a condition safe for flight (see Appendix A). 

14) The PIC and VO will meet the requirements outlined in FAA Policy N 8900.227 

Section 16 personnel Qualifications. Additionally, the PIC and VO will perform 

maintenance on the system and will complete a course of maintenance instruction as 

part of their initial training. 

We submit that the combination of the UA's light weight, flight performance and ability, 

fully qualified flight crew and strict operation under the guidelines established in 

8900.227, and under all of the Restrictions (a) through (n) listed above, the FAA can 

have full confidence that the operation will have an equivalent or greater level of safety 

than manned aircraft performing the same mission.

ADDENDUM A 

EXEMPTION REQUESTS AND EQUIVALENT LEVEL OF SAFETY 

C Three Photography LLC, requests an exemption from the following regulations as 

well as any additional regulations that may technically apply to the operation of the 

sUAS System: 

14 CFR Part 21, Subpart H: Airworthiness Certificates 

This part establishes the procedures for the issuance of an airworthiness certificate. While the 

FAA continues to work to develop airworthiness standards for Unmanned Aerial Systems, we 

request an experimental certificate be issued for the sUAS System under either or both of the 

following provisions: 21.191 Experimental certificates. 

Experimental certificates are issued for the following purposes: 

Research and development. Testing new aircraft design concepts, new aircraft equipment, new 

aircraft installations, new aircraft operating techniques, or new uses for aircraft. 

Showing compliance with regulations. Conducting flight tests and other operations to show 

compliance with the airworthiness regulations including flights to show compliance for issuance 

of type and supplemental type certificates, flights to substantiate major design changes, and 

flights to show compliance with the function and reliability requirements of the regulations. 

Since the experimental certificate can be used for commercial purposes such as market 

surveys, sales demonstrations, and customer crew training, we would expect that an 

experimental certificate would permit our commercial purpose as well. 

The aircraft will not carry persons or property, will not carry fuel, and will only fly under 

strict operational requirements. Combined with the UA's light weight, being constructed 

primarily of carbon fiber and plastic, we propose that the UA will be at least as safe, if 

not safer, than a conventionally certificated aircraft performing the same mission. 

If an experimental airworthiness certificate is not appropriate for this application, then 

we request an exemption of 14 CFR Part 21, Subpart H, and the requirement for an 

airworthiness certificate in general, citing the equivalent level of safety outlined in the 

previous paragraph. 

14 CFR 45.23 Display of marks; general and 45.29 Size of marks. 

These regulations provide that each aircraft must display "N" and the aircraft's registration 

number in letters at least 3 inches high. Additionally, the aircraft must display the word 

"EXPERIMENTAL" in letters at least 2 inches high near the entrance to the cabin, cockpit, or 

pilot station. 

The UA does not have an entrance in which the word "EXPERIMENTAL" can be 

placed, and may not have a registration number assigned to it by the FAA. 

We propose to achieve an equivalent level of safety by including the word 

"EXPERIMENTAL" in the placard on the top of the aircraft where the PIC, VO and 

others in the vicinity of the aircraft while it is preparing for launch will be able to see the 

designation. Additionally, we feel that the permanent placard discussed in the previous 

paragraph will provide the aircraft's registration information at the ground station. 

Finally, we will display at the ground station a high contrast flag or banner that contains th~Qo \Atnrrlc "I lnrn~nn~Qorl Airrr~ft ~rn11nrl ~t~tinn" in I~Qott~Qorc ~ inrh~Qoc hinh nr nr~Qo~t~Qor ~inr~Qo 
the aircraft will operate within 3/4 NM of the ground station, the banner should be visible 

to anyone that observes the aircraft and chooses to investigate its point of origin. 

14 CFR 61.56 Flight Review 

This regulation provides for a regular review by an authorized instructor of pilot proficiency in 

the type of aircraft for which the pilot is rated. 

Since this sUAS does not have a Type Certificate under 14 CFR 21, 23 or 25, we 

request exemption from this regulation. Based on the wording of 61.56, the 

requirement to complete a review in the aircraft for which the pilot is rated is impossible 

to comply with. 

14 CFR 61.113 Private pilot privileges and limitations: Pilot in Command and 61.133 

Commercial pilot privileges and limitations. 

The regulation provides that no person that holds a private pilot certificate may act as pilot in 

command of an aircraft for compensation or hire. Subparagraph (b) allows a private pilot to act 

as pilot in command of an aircraft in connection with any business or employment if: ( 1) The 

flight is only incidental to that business or employment; and (2) The aircraft does not carry 

passengers or property for compensation or hire. 

Our proposed operations require that the PIC must either Hold a Commercial Pilot 

Certificate issued by the FAA, and have logged 25 hours of flight experience in this type 

of UA, or Meet the requirements of 8900.227 para 16(c)(2)(c) "Operations without a 

pilot certificate" in which the PIC is required to complete "FAA private pilot ground 

instruction" and pass "the FAA Private Pilot written examination." Since there are 

currently no means available for the pilot of a UAS to gain the experience in an 

equivalent category and class in order to apply for a commercial pilot's license, we 

propose to generate an equivalent level of safety by requiring our pilots to complete, at 

a minimum, FAA commercial pilot ground instruction and pass the FAA Commercial 

Pilot written examination in addition to completing the private pilot requirements. Since 

the aircraft cannot carry passengers or property, we feel we meet the intent of 61.113 

Subparagraph (b) even though the intent of this application is to conduct a business. 

14 CFR 91.9 Civil aircraft flight manual, marking, and placard requirements. 

This regulation provides that no person may operate an aircraft unless a current, approved flight 

manual is in the aircraft. 

We assume that the intent of this requirement is to ensure that flight manual information 

is available to the aircrew while operating the aircraft. We request an exemption to this 

requirement since the aircraft is not only too small to carry documentation, the 

documentation would not be available to the crew during flight operations. To obtain an 

equivalent level of safety and meet the intent of 91.9, we propose that a current, 

approved UA Flight Manual (Appendix A) must be available to the crew at the ground 

station anytime the aircraft is in, or preparing for flight. 
14 CFR 91.105 Flight crew members at stations. 

This regulation provides that all crew members must keep safety belts and shoulder harnesses 

fastened. 

We request an exemption from this regulation because seat belts and shoulder 

harnesses are not part of the environment of a sUAS operation. 
14 CFR 91.109 Flight Instruction; Simulated instrument flight and certain flight tests 

The regulation states that "No person may operate a civil aircraft that is being used for flight 

instruction unless that aircraft has fully functioning dual controls." 

The sUAS System ground-based control station consists of a small hand-held radio 

transmitter and while it does not offer a second set of "controls", both the student and 

instructor can, and will, operate the single set of controls simultaneously. With both 

student and instructor having "hands-on" the controls during flight, we feel that this 

technique meets the intent 91.109 and provides an equivalent level of safety. 

14 CFR 91.119 Minimum safe altitudes: General. 

The regulation states that over sparsely populated areas the aircraft cannot be operated closer 

than 500 feet to any person, vessel, vehicle, or structure. 

Since the aircraft will be operating at a maximum of 400 feet AGL, we cannot comply 

with this requirement. In order to provide an equivalent level of safety we will only fly 

over private property with the permission of the property owner. The aircraft will not be 

operated over congested areas or over any open air assembly of persons. The property 

owner will be briefed on the expected route of flight and the associated risks to persons 

and property on the ground. The aircraft will be operated at a low altitude allowing, if a 

power unit fails, an emergency landing without undue hazard to persons or property on 

the surface. Therefore we maintain that due to the small size of the UA, the hazard to 

persons, vehicles and structures is minimal compared to manned aircraft, which should 

be considered in granting the exemption. 

14 CFR 91.121 Altimeter settings. 

The regulation requires that aircraft shall maintain cruising altitudes by reference to an altimeter 

setting available within 100 NM of the aircraft. 

The UA will always fly below 400 feet AGL and will not need to maintain cruising 

altitudes in order to prevent conflict with other aircraft. An Above Ground Level altimeter 

measurement above the takeoff point is transmitted via radio from the UA on-board 

computer to the display screen held by the PIC, providing a constantly updated AGL 

readout. 

14 CFR 91.151 Fuel requirements for flight in VFR conditions. 

The regulation provides that no person may begin a flight in an airplane under day-VFR 

conditions unless there is enough fuel to fly to the first point of intended landing and to fly after 

that for at least 30 minutes. 

We feel the intention of this paragraph is to provide an energy reserve as a safety 

buffer for delays to landing. The UA is battery operated and the maximum duration of 

flight from a single battery charge is 18 minutes with a 20% reserve. Since the aircraft 

will never fly more than three-quarter NM from the point of intended landing, a full 

battery charge at launch will ensure that we meet the reserve energy requirement of 

this paragraph. We request an exemption to the word "fuel" and ask for an equivalent 

interpretation with the word "energy". 
14 CFR 91.203(a) & (b) Civil aircraft: Certifications required. 

The regulation provides that an airworthiness certificate, with the registration number assigned to 

the aircraft and a registration certificate must be aboard the aircraft. Additionally, subparagraph 

(b) provides that the airworthiness certificate be "displayed at the cabin or cockpit entrance so 

that it is legible to passengers or crew." 

At a maximum gross weight of 6.5 pounds, the UA is too small to carry documentation, 

does not have an entrance, and is not capable of carrying passengers or crew. To 

obtain an equivalent level of safety and meet the intent of 91.203, we propose that 

documents deemed appropriate for this aircraft by the FAA will be co-located with the 

crew at the ground control station and available for inspection upon request. In order to 

identify the aircraft, we propose that the information found on airworthiness and 

registration certificates be permanently affixed to the aircraft via placard containing the 

following information plus the word "EXPERIMENTAL" to satisfy the requirement of 14 

CFR 45.23; 

Example: C Three Photography LLC 

3146 Champions Way 

Medina, Ohio 44256 

S/N 999999999 

14 CFR Subpart E (91.40 1 - 91.417) - Maintenance, Preventive Maintenance, Alterations 

The regulation provides that the operator is primarily responsible for maintaining the aircraft in 

an airworthy condition, including compliance with part 39 and 43. Paragraphs 91.407 and 91.409 

require that the aircraft be "approved for return to service by a person authorized under 43.7" 

after maintenance and inspection. 

It is our intention that the PIC perform maintenance and inspection of the aircraft and 

"be authorized to approve the aircraft for return to service." The PIC will ensure that 

the aircraft is in an airworthy condition prior to every flight and in addition conduct 

detailed inspections after every two hours of flight. Maintenance performed by the PIC 

is limited to repairing small cracks, replacing a propeller, checking electrical connections 

and updating software and firmware for the on-board computer. All other maintenance 

will be performed by the manufacturer or their designated repair facility. The PIC will 

document work performed in accordance with 91.417. We feel that due to the size, 

construction, and simplicity of the aircraft, the PIC can ensure an equivalent level of 

safety. 

8900.227 Paragraph 16(c)(4) PIC Medical. and Paragraph 16(e)(l) Observer Medical. 

This policy provides that both the PIC and VO must have a valid FAA second-class 

medical certificate issued under part 67 in order to perform as a pilot or observer. The 

UA maximum gross weight is 6.5 pounds, it is constructed of carbon fiber and plastic 

and the PIC is not on board. Both the PIC and the VO are required to be in VLOS. 

Given the unlikely event that both the PIC and VO become medically incapacitated 

while the aircraft is in flight, the UA will return autonomously to the site of launching and 

land without crew intervention. 

Therefore, requiring the PIC and VO to meet the same medical requirements as a 

commercial pilot carrying passengers in a large aircraft is an unnecessary burden. 
We propose that the minimum medical requirements for the PIC and VO be vision 

corrected to 20/20 and a valid, state issued driver's license. The 20/20 vision 

requirement will ensure that the PIC and VO can see and avoid air traffic; a licensed 

driver is medically qualified to operate a much larger vehicle.

This section introduces the features of 

the Flight Controller, Vision Positioning 

System, and the Intelligent Flight Battery 

10 © 2015 DJI. All Rights Reserved. 
Aircraft 

The Phantom 3 Professional's flight controller features several important upgrades, including a new flight 

mode. Safety modes include Failsafe and Return-to-Home. These features ensure the safe return of your 

aircraft if the control signal is lost. The flight controller can also save critical flight data from each flight 

to the on-board storage device. The new flight controller also provides increased stability and a new air 

braking feature. 

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 signal 

strength of GPS and Vision Positioning sensors : 

P-GPS: GPS and Vision Positioning both are available. The aircraft is using GPS for positioning. 

P-OPTI: Vision Positioning is available but the GPS signal strength is not sufficient. The aircraft is 

using only the Vision Positioning System for positioning. 

P-ATII: 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 used for stabilization. The aircraft only uses 

its barometer. The aircraft can still automatically return to the home point if the control signal is lost and 

the Home Point was recorded successfully. 

F-mode (Function): Intelligent Orientation Control (IOC) is activated in this mode. For more information 

about IOC, refer to the IOC section in the Appendix. 

-~- Use the Flight Controller mode switch to change the flight mode of the aircraft, refer to the "Flight 

Mode Switch" on Page 26 for more information. 

The Phantom 3 Professional has Front LEOs and Aircraft Status Indicators. The positions of these LEOs 

are shown in the figure below: 

Aircraft Status Indicator 

Front LED 

The Front LEOs show the orientation of the aircraft. The Front LEOs glow solid red when the aircraft is 

turned on to indicate the front (or nose) of the aircraft. The Aircraft Status Indicators communicate the 

system status of the flight controller. Refer to the table below for more information about the Aircraft Status 

Indicators:

Critical Battery Warning 

Critical Error 

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. 

Home Point ~.ull 

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 ( ~.nil ). The aircraft status 

indicator will blink rapidly when the home point is recorded. 

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 GO app and follow the on-screen instructions when GPS is available to 

initiate 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.

Phantom 3 Professional User Manual 

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 GO 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 Battery Level Indicator is displayed in the DJI GO app, and is described below:

t): • 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. 

• The colored zones and markers on the battery level indicator bar reflect the estimated 

remaining flight time. They are automatically adjusted according to the aircraft's current location 

and status. 

If the Home Point was successfully recorded and the compass is functioning normally, Failsafe RTH will 

be 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.

& . Aircraft cannot return to the Home Point when GPS signal is weak ( [ t. 11 !11] displays grey) or 

unavailable. 

• Aircraft automatically descends and lands if RTH is triggered when the aircraft flies within a 20 

meters (65 feet) radius of the Home Point. Aircraft will stop ascending and immediately return to 

the Home Point if you move the throttle stick if the aircraft reaches 20 meters (65 feet) altitudes 

or beyond during Failsafe. 

• The aircraft cannot avoid obstruction during the Failsafe RTH, therefore, it is important to set an 

suitable Failsafe altitude before each flight. Launch the DJI GO app and enter "Camera" and 

select "MODE > Advanced Settings > Failsafe mode" to set the Failsafe altitude . 

• User cannot control the aircraft while the aircraft is ascending to its failsafe altitude. However 

the user can rapidly toggle S1 switch to regain control to cancel the ascending. 

The DJI Vision Positioning System uses ultrasound and image data to help the aircraft maintain its current 

position. With the help of Vision Positioning, your Phantom 3 Professional can hover in place more precisely 

and fly indoors or in other environments where a GPS signal is not available. The main components of the 

Vision Positioning System are located on the bottom of your Phantom 3 Professional; they include [2] two 

ultrasonic sensors and [1] one monocular camera. 

14 © 2015 OJ I. All Rights Reserved. 
Using Vision Positioning 

Phantom 3 Professional User Manual 

[1] 

[2] 

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 use Vision Positioning: 

1. Toggle the flight mode switch toP-mode. 

2. Place the aircraft on a flat surface. Note that the Vision Positioning system cannot work 

properly on surfaces without clear pattern variations. 

3. Turn on the aircraft. The aircraft status indicator will flash green two times, which indicates the Vision Positioning system is ready. Gently push the throttle up to lift off and the aircraft will 

hover in place. 

&, 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. 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). 

• Flying over a highly reflective surfaces. 

• 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). 

• Flying over inclined surfaces that will deflect sound waves away from the aircraft.

~ • Keep the sensors clean at all times. Dirt or other debris may adversely affect the effectiveness 

of the sensors. 

• Vision Positioning is only effective when the aircraft is at altitudes of 0.3 to 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 of 40 KHz when Vision Positioning system is 

in operation. 

• Vision Positioning System may not be able to stabilize the aircraft when flying close to the 

ground (below 0.5 meters) at fast speeds .. 

0 Keep the animals away from the aircraft when Vision Positioning system is activated. The sonar 

sensor emits high frequency sounds that are only audible to some animals. 

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 GO app. 

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.

~ P-mode (Positioning): P-mode works best when the GPS signal is strong. There are three different 

versions of P-mode, which will be automatically selected by the Phantom 3 Professional depending on 

GPS signal strength and the Vision Positioning sensors: 

P-GPS: GPS and Vision Positioning both are available; the aircraft is using GPS for positioning. 

P-OPTI: Vision Positioning is available but a sufficient GPS signal is not available. Aircraft is using 

only Vision Positioning for position holding. 

P-ATII: Neither GPS nor Vision Positioning is available, the aircraft is using only its barometer for 

positioning, so only altitude is maintained. 

A-mode (Attitude): GPS and Vision Positioning System are not used for stabilization. The aircraft uses 

only its barometer to stabilize. The aircraft can automatically return to the Home Point if remote controller 

signal is lost and the Home Point was recorded successfully. 

F-mode (Function): Intelligent Orientation Control (IOC) is activated in this mode. For more information 

about IOC, refer to the IOC section in the Appendix. 

By default, the Flight Mode Switch is locked toP-mode. To unlock other flight modes, launch the DJI GO 

app, enter the "Camera" page, and tap "Mode", then activate "Multiple Flight Mode".

Flight 

Once pre-flight preparation is complete, it is recommended that you use the flight simulator in the DJI GO 

app to hone your flight skills and practice flying safely. Ensure that all flights are carried out in an open 

area. 

1. Do not use the aircraft in severe weather conditions. These include wind speeds exceeding 10 m/s . 

snow, rain and fog. 

2. Only fly in open areas. Tall structures and large metal structures may affect the accuracy of the onboard compass and GPS system. 

3. Avoid obstacles, crowds, high voltage power lines, trees, and bodies of water. 

4. Minimize interference by avoiding areas with high levels of electromagnetism, including base stations 

and radio transmission towers. 

5. Aircraft and battery performance is subject to environmental factors such as air density and 

temperature.Be very careful when flying at altitudes greater than 19, 685 feet (6000 meters) above sea 

:!! level, as the performance of the battery and aircraft may be affected. 

<§: 6. The Phantom 3 Professional cannot operate within the polar areas. 

-

All unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) operators should abide by all regulations set forth by government and 

regulatory agencies including the ICAO and the FAA. For safety reasons, flights are limited by default, 

which helps users operate this product safely and legally. Flight limitations include height limits, distance 

limits, and No-Fly Zones. 

When operating in P-mode, height limits, distance limits, and No-Fly Zones function concurrently to 

manage flight safety. In A-mode, only height limits are in effect. which by default prevent the aircraft 

altitude from exceeding 1640 feet (500 m). 

Maximum flight altitude & Radius Limits 

Maximum flight altitude and radius limits may be changed in the DJI GO app. Be aware that the maximum 

flight altitude cannot exceed 1640 feet (500 meters). In accordance with these settings, your Phantom 3 

Professional will fly in a restricted cylinder, as shown below:

No-Fly Zones 

All No-Fly Zones are listed on the DJI official website at http://flysafe.dji.com/no-fly. No-Fly Zones are 

divided into Airports and Restricted Areas. Airports include major airports and flying fields where manned 

aircraft operate at low altitudes. Restricted Areas include border lines between countries or sensitive 

institute. The details of the No-Fly Zones are explained as follow: 

Airport 

(1) Airport No-Fly Zone are comprised of Take-off Restricted zones and Restricted Altitude Zones. Each 

zone features circles of various sizes. 

(2) R1 miles (value of the R1 depends on the size and shape of the airport) around the airport is a Takeoff restricted zone, inside of which take off is prevented. 

(3) From R1 mile to R1 + 1 mile around the airport the flight altitude is limited to a 15 degree inclination. 

Starting at 65 feet (20 meters) from the edge of airport and radiating outward. The flight altitude is 

limited to 1640 feet (500 meters) at R1 + 1 mile 

(4) When the aircraft enters within 320 feet (100 meters) of No-Fly Zones, a warning message will appear 

on the DJI GO app.

Troubleshooting {FAQ) 

What is the difference between the Phantom 3 Professional and the Phantom 3 Advanced? 

The biggest difference between the Phantom 3 Professional and the Phantom 3 Advanced is in the 

camera. The Phantom 3 Professional is capable of shooting spectacular 4K video at up to 30 frames per 

second, and the Phantom 3 Advanced is capable of shooting at resolutions up to 1080p60. Both models 

shoot 12 megapixel photos. 

The other main difference is the Intelligent Flight Battery charger. The Phantom 3 Advanced comes with a 

57-watt charging unit and the Phantom 3 Professional comes with a 100-watt charger, the latter of which 

allows for shorter charging times. 

Can I remove the camera and attach my own? 

No. The cameras that come with both models are permanently attached. Attempting to remove, replace, or 

modify the camera may damage the product and will void your warranty. 

Can I charge my Remote Controller and Intelligent Flight Battery at the same time? 

While the Remote Controller charger and Intelligent Flight Battery charger have been integrated into one 

unit for your convenience, it is recommended that you only charge one item at a time. We recommend that ~ 

you never charge both items using the same charger at the same time. 0 

What are the buttons on the back of my Remote Controller for? 

The two buttons on the back of the Remote Controller can be customized and assigned to function as you 

choose through the DJI GO app. Refer to the manual for more information. 

How far can I fly my Phantom 3? 

The signal transmission distance will vary depending on environmental conditions, but the Phantom 3 

series can reach distances of up to 1.2 miles (2 kilometers) away from the pilot. 

What app should I use with my Phantom 3? 

The Phantom 3 is compatible with the DJI GO app for iOS and Android, which is already used with the DJI 

Inspire. The app will detect which aircraft is connected and automatically adjust accordingly. 

Which mobile devices are compatible with the app? 

The OJI GO app is only compatible with devices running iOS 8.0 or later or Android v4.1.2 or later. 

The following devices are recommended: 

iOS: iPhone 5s, iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus, iPad Air, iPad Air Wi-Fi + Cellular, iPad mini 2, iPad mini 2 Wi-Fi

How do I use the Director automatic video editor? 

Director is an automatic video editor built into the DJI GO app. After recording several video clips, simply 

tap "Director" from the app's home screen. You can then select a template and a specified number of 

clips, which are automatically combined to create a short film that can be shared immediately. 

How do I change the control mode of my Phantom 3? 

By default, the Remote Controller is set to Mode 2. This means that the right control stick controls the 

movement of the aircraft and the left control stick controls the throttle and orientation of the aircraft. These 

controls can be changed to Mode 1 or set to a customized configuration in the DJI GO app. This is only 

recommended for advanced users. 

Can I use a Phantom 2 Remote Controller with the Phantom 3? 

No. The Phantom 2 Remote Controller operates on a different frequency. The Phantom 2 Remote Controller 

operates at 5.8 GHz and the new Phantom 3 Remote Controller operates at 2.4 GHz. 

Can I use a Phantom 2 Intelligent Flight Battery with the Phantom 3? 

No. The Phantom 3 uses a newly designed Intelligent Flight Battery with greater power. The Phantom 3 has 

a 4 cell battery with a capacity of 4480 mAh and a voltage of 15.2 V. 

My Phantom 3 does not turn off right away, is something wrong? 

This is normal. After you attempt to power off the Intelligent Flight Battery, it may remain on for a few 

seconds as any video data is saved to the Micro SO card. This helps prevent your data from being lost or 

corrupted. 

Do I have to buy the Remote Controller separately? 

No, there is no need to buy a separate Remote Controller. Your Phantom 3 comes with a Remote Controller 

that is already linked to the aircraft. 

Does my Phantom 3 support dual Remote Controllers? 

No. The included Remote Controller can be used to control both the aircraft and the gimbal tilt at the same 

time. 

What does the "P, A, F" switch on the Remote Controller do? 

This switch, called the Flight Mode Switch, allows you to toggle different flight modes: 

P-mode, or Positioning mode, indicates that both GPS and the Vision Positioning System are active and 

your Phantom 3 will attempt to stabilize using both. 

In A-mode, or Attitude mode, the aircraft does not use GPS or the Vision Positioning System. Only the 

barometer is used for stabilization. The aircraft can still return to the Home Point as long as a sufficient GPS 

signal is available. 

F-mode, or Function mode, activates Intelligent Orientation Control (IOC) functionality. Refer to the IOC 

section in the Appendix of the User Manual. 

By default, only P-mode may be used. Refer to your user manual for instructions on unlocking the other 

modes.

Phantom 3 Professional User Manual 

What is the Phantom 3 flight time? 

Flight times will vary depending on environmental conditions and usage patterns, but the Intelligent Flight 

Battery is designed to provide up to 23 minutes of uninterrupted flight time when fully charged. 

How can I restore a video file if the power is turned off during recording? 

Do not remove the Micro-SO card from the camera. If it has been removed, place it back in the camera. 

Turn the Phantom 3 on and wait approximately 30 seconds as the video file is restored. 

How can I ensure that my pictures and videos will be synchronized to my iOS album? 

You may need to adjust the settings of your mobile device. Open the Settings menu, select the Privacy tab, 

select the Photos tab, and then toggle the switch next to the OJI GO app icon. If the GO app has not been 

granted access to your albums, the photos and videos cannot be synchronized. 

What should I do to land my Phantom 3 smoothly as possible? 

Hover the aircraft over a flat, level surface. Slowly pull the throttle stick down until the aircraft touches the 

ground. 

Why is the discharge time of the battery not zero, even though I have never used it? 

Every battery is tested prior to being packaged and shipped. This affects the discharge time of a new 

battery and is the reason that the discharge time is not zero. The battery is safe to use. 

Can the mobile device holder be used on the Phantom 2 series Remote Controller? 

No, it cannot. 

How to safely operate the aircraft when encountering compass error? 

A compass error may occur when the aircraft is flying close to strong electric magnetic sources (e.g. 

power transmission lines). Aircraft Status Indicators blink red and yellow rapidly when a compass error 

occurs and the DJI GO app will display one of the following messages: 

• Compass error, calibration required 

This warning message indicates the aircraft is receiving abnormal compass readings. It is recommended 

to power off the aircraft and re-calibrate the compass at a different location and then resume the flight. 

• Compass error, exit P-GPS Mode 

This warning message indicates that the aircraft is drifting severely. Bring the aircraft to a higher altitude 

to gain enough GPS satellite locks when this warning message is prompted. The flight controller will 

automatically adjust the orientation of the aircraft in the midair to mitigate the drifts. The aircraft will switch 

back to P-GPS mode when the automatic adjustment is completed. 

How to troubleshoot aircraft initialization error? 

If you observe the following symptoms, it indicates the aircraft has failed to initialized: 

• The aircraft status indicator display flashing red, yellow and green. Even the aircraft is stationed on the 

flat surface. 

• The System Status Bar in the app prompts "Initialization Error". 

• No resistance drive if felt on the gimbal.

Phantom 3 Professional User Manual 

Various factors contribute to the aircraft initialization error, try resolve the issue by following the suggestions 

listed below: 

• Sensor performance degraded. This may be due to the excessive bias detected from the IMU or the 

compass reading is interfered. Try restarting and calibrating the IMU and compass to resolve this issue. 

• Sensor is defective. If the sensors remains unchanged at all time and the problem persist even when the 

aircraft is restarted, it indicates the sensor is not working normally. Users should return the aircraft to DJI 

for repairing. 

• Minor vibration is detected during aircraft initialization. Put the aircraft on the flat surface, power on the 

aircraft and ensure the aircraft is stationed for more than 5 seconds to resolve the issue. 

• Serious vibration is detected during aircraft initialization. This instance generally occurs when the aircraft 

is being initialization on the violent moving surface, for instance, ships that are on the rough sea. Do not 

attempt to power on the aircraft in this scenario.
