6 Preparing the Range ~xtend~r

The Phantom 2 Vision-+ Range Extender is a wireless commu"' ;anon device that operates within the 2.4 GNz frequency

band. It is used to extending the effective range of communication betv~een a Smartphane and the Phantom 2 Vision+.

In an open, unobstructed area, the transmission distance can reach up to 700 meters. This can ae reduced by trees,

buildings and other sources of the same frequency. Before every flight, it is suggested that you ensure the Range

Extender is functioning properly; otherwise communication issues between the mobile device and the Phantom 2

Vision+ may occur.

Each Range Extender has a unique MAC address and network name (SSID), details of which are printed on the label as

'Phantom_XXXXXX'. The 'XXXXXX' represents the last 6 letters or numbers of the MAC address for the Flange Extender.

This can be renamed in the DJI VISION App.

1 Calibrating the Cflrnpass

IMPORTANT: Make sure to calibrate the compass in every new flight location. The compass is very sensitive to

electromagnetic interference, which can cause abnormal compass data leading to poor flight performance or even flight

failure. Regular calibration is required for optimum performance.

• DO NOT calibrate your compass where there is a chance of strong magnetic interference, such as magnetite,

parking structures, and steel reinforcements underground.

• DO NOT carry ferromagnetic materials with you during calibration such as keys or cellular phones.

• DO NOT calibrate beside massive metal objects.

1.1 Calibration Procedures

Choose an open space to carry out the following procedures. Watch the Phantom 2 Vision+ quick siart video far more

details.

;~; If compass calibration is needed before flight, a prompt will appear on the DJI VISON App's camera page. It will

disappear after successful calibration.

1.2 When to Recalibrate

(1) When compass data is abnormal, the rear LED flight indicator will blink red and yellow.

{2} Flying in different location to last fight.

(3) Mechanical structure of the Phantom has changed, I.e. changed mounting position of the compass.

(4) Severe drifting occurs in flight, i.e. Phantom does not fly in straight lines.

2 Star~eng/S#o~ping the Motors

2,1 Starting Motors

A Cambinatian Stick Command (CSC) is used to start the motors instead of

simply pushing the stick up. Push both sticks to their bottom corners to start the s,

motors. Once the motors have spun up, release both sticks simultaneously.

~ ~ ~e m

~ a ,,,, ~

2.2 Stopping Motors ~ic~urc; ~

There are two methods to stop the motors.

Method 1: When the Phantom has landed, push the throttle down, then conduct CSC. Motors will stop immediately.

Release both sticks once motors stop,

Method 2: When the aircraft has landed, push the throttle down and hold. Motors will stop after 3 seconds,

Do not execute CSC during normal flight. This will stop the motors and cause the aircraft to drop without control.

;~; •Conduct the CSC as neatly as you can. Release the sticks once motors start/stop.

• Pull dawn the throttle stick to descend. The stick will lack into place and the aircraft will descend steadily. Push

the throttle stick upward to release throttle lock.

3 Flight Test

3.1 Take off/Landing Procedures

{1) Place the Phantom 2 Vision+ on open flat ground with battery indicators facing'..owards you.

(2) Power on the Remote Controller and Range Extender, then the Smart Flight Battery.

(3) Launch the DJl VISION App and start bind it with your smartphone then enter the camera preview page.

{4) Wait until the Rear LED Flight Indicator blinks green. This mear:s it has initialized ar,d is Ready to Fly. If it flashes yeilaw,

it is in Ready to Fly (non-GPS) mode and will require more careful flight. Execute the CSC command to start motors.

(5) Push the throttle up slowly to take off. Refer to Remote Controller Operation (Page 18) for more details.

(6) Shoot photos and videos using the DJI VISION App. Refer to DJI VISION App Usage {Page 32) for more details.

(7} To land, hover over a level surface and gently pull down cn the throttle gently to descend.

(8) After landing, execute the CSC command or hold the throttle at its lowest position for 3 seconds or more until the

motors stop.

(9} Turn off the smart battery, Range Extender and Remote Controller.

26
Flight

• When the Rear LED Flight Indicator blinks yellow rapidly during flight, the aircraft has entered Failsafe mode.

Refer to Failsafe Funciion(Page 27) for details.

A low battery level warning is indicated by the Rear LED Flight Indicator blinking red slowly or rapidly during

flight. Refer to the Low Battery Level Warning Function(Page 28) for details.

•View tutorials about flight for more flight information:www.dji.com/phantom2visionp~us/training.

•Aircraft and batiery performance is suoject to environmental factors such as air density and temperature. Be

very careful when flying 3000 meters (9800 feet) or more above sea level, as battery and aircraft performance

may be reduced.

3.2 Video Suggestions and Tips

(1) Work through the chick list before each flight.

(2} Set the gimbal working mode to Stabilized.

(3) Aim to shoot when flying in Ready to Fly only.

(4) Always f!y in good vdea+her, such as sunry or Mindless days.

(5) Change camera settings to suit you. These include FOV, photo format and exposure compensation.

(6) Take flight tests to establish flight routes and scenes.

(7) Push the sticks gently to make aircraft movements stable and smooth.

4 Failsafe Function

The Phantom will enter Failsafe mode when its connection to the Remote Controller is lost, The Flight Control System will

automa~ically control the aircraft to return to home and land to prevent injury or damage.

[Q Home Point: When the Phantom enters 'Ready to Fly' from the 'Ready to Fly status (non-GPS)', the GPS

coordinates will be recorded and set as the home point.

•When Remote Controller signal is lost, the aircraft will return to the recorded home point coordinates and land.

•Home point coordinates are used to calculate the horizontal distance of the aircraft (shown as "Distance" on the

GUI of the DJI VISIQN App).

•After successfully record the home point, rear LED flight indicators blink fast green.

Dynamic Home Point: The Nome point will be reset to position of the mobile device at specific time intervals.

•Enable dynamic home point in DJI Vision app or Phantom 2 Assistant.

•Dynamic home point is only available to the GPS-enabled mobile device. Turn on GPS and data service to

obtain higher accuracy of the mobile device position.

• Dynamic home point is useful in situations 4vhen you are in motion and require a Home point that is different

from the takeoff point.

4.1 When Wili Failsafe Activate?

(1) The Remote Controller is powered off.

(2} The Phantom has flown out of effective remote controller range.

(3} The signal between the Remote Controller and the Phantom has been blocked.

(4) Tnere is interference causing a signal problem with the Remote Controller.

4.2 Failsafe Procedure

Initiating the Failsafe mode from different flying statuses will results in different landing processes.

Ready to Fiy(nan-GPS)—Automatic landing.

The Flight Control System will keep the aircraft level during descent and landing. it may be drift during the descent and landing process.

Ready to Fly— Automatic go home and land

The Flight Control System will automatically cortrol the aircraft to fly back to the home point and land.

• To ensure the aircraft successful return to home after Failsafe activation, aim to only fly in Ready to Fly mode.

• The Phantom will automatically descend during the Failsafe process if there are less than 6 GPS satellites

detected for more than 20 seconds.

• V~Jher the aircrat`t is landing automa?icaily, users can control the aircraft's position and altitude if the remote

controller signal is recovered.

•Aircraft cannot navigate around vertical obstacles on its return home course during Failsafe. However, you can set

return home altitude value in Phantom Assistant to avoid hitting vertical obstacles through DJI Phantom Assistant.

:~; Quickly flipping the S?_ switch of the Remote Controller from top to bottom 5 times or more will reset the current

aircraft position as a new home point. Rear LED flight indicators will blink green rapidly when successful.
