# Flight Modes, Functions and Warnings Flight Modes [&WARNING) To avoid serious injuryand propertydamage, observethefollowing rule: 1) Do NOT switch from P mode to eitherA mode or F mode unless you are sufficiently familiar with

the aircraft's behaviorfor each flight mode, since disabling GPS may result in being unableto land theaircraftsafely. 

# [ NOTICE ] P mode is preferred for 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 A mode. 1) Pmode (Positioning): P mode works best when the GPS signal is strong. There are three different states

of P mode, which will be automatically selected bythe 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 Positioning System to hoveraccurately.

Note that the Vision Positioning System may NOT work properly when the Phantom 3 is flying over water, oversurfaceswithout a clear pattern, or in a low lightenvironment. c) P-ATII: When neither GPS nor Vision Positioning is available, the aircraft is using only its barometerfor positioning, so only altitude is controlled. 2) A mode (Attitude): The GPS and Vision Positioning System are NOT 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 horne ifthe Remote Controller signal is lost and ifthe Home Point has been recorded successfully. 3) F mode (Function): Intelligent Orientation Control (IOC) is activated in this mode. Ensure you are familiar

with IOCfunctions before use. If you intend to switch to modesthat disable GPS assistance (e.g., A mode), you are required to acceptthe prompted disclaimer to enable this function. 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 a DJI designated server.


## Failsafeand Return to Home 

# [ NOTICE 

# I 1) The Return to Homefeature will NOTwork ifthe GPS signal is insufficientor 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 offthe remote controller. 3) Tall buildings may adversely affect the Failsafe function. Please adjust the aircraft location, altitude and speed while returning hometo avoid obstacles. 4) Make sureto alwaysflythe aircraftwithinthe transmission range ofthe remote controller. 5) Only usethe Failsafe and Return to Homefunctions in case of emergency, as they may beaffected bythe

weather, the environment, or any nearby magneticfields. 

### 136) The aircraft cannot avoid obstacles duringthe Failsafe RTH; therefore it is importantto setan appropriate Failsafe altitude before eachflight. 7) Whenflying indoors, the aircraft cannot perform precision hovering when flying abovethe surfacesthat do nothave a clear pattern. Referto the "Vision Positioning System" sectionfor 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 aircraft'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 power during flight and causing damageto the aircraft, property, animals, and people.


## Vision Positioning System 

# [ NOTICE ] 1) The Vision Positioning System cannot work properly over surfaces that do NOT have pattern variations.

The effective altitude for the Vision Positioning System to function correctly is less than 2.5 meters above ground level (AGL). 2) TheVision Positioning System may NOTfunction properlywhenthe aircraft is flying overwater. 3) Keep your pets away from the aircraft when the Vision Positioning System is activated, as the sonar sensors emita high frequencysound that is only audibleto some pets. 4) NotethattheVision Positioning System may NOTfunction properlywhen the aircraft isflying toofast ortoo low. 5) Operate the aircraft cautiouslywhen in anyofthe following situations: a) Flying over monochrome surfaces (e.g., pure black, purewhite, pure red, pure green). b) Flying over highly reflective surfaces; c) Flying at high speeds (over Bm/s at 2 meters or over 4m/s at 1meter); d) Flying overwaterortransparentsurfaces; e) Flying over moving surfaces or objects; f) Flying in an areawherethe lighting changes frequently or drastically; g) Flying over extremely dark (lux< 10) or bright (lux> 10,000)surfaces; h) Flying over surfacesthat can absorb sound waves (e.g., thick carpet). i) Flying oversurfaces without clear patternsortexture; j) Flying over surfaceswith identical repeating patterns ortextures (e.g. tiles with same design); k) Flying over inclined surfacesthat will deflectsound waves awayfrom the aircraft 6) In the eventof loss ofthe remote controller's signal, the aircraftwill hoverfor 8 seconds and then auto-land if it is in "P" mode.
