Step 3 Preview a Mission: 

Tap "Done" to preview the mission when all way points are set A prompt similar to the one below will appear 

This prompt lists all waypoints and their altitudes The aircraft will fly to each waypoint listed If there is a difference in 

altitude between waypoints, the aircraft will adjust its altitude as it flies between points When ready, tap "GO" to begin 

miSSIOn 

& Aircraft reacts differenUy to the "GO" command: 

• If aircraft is on the ground, the aircraft takes off automatically and ascend 16 feet (5m) then fly to the first 

waypoint 

•If aircraft is in the air, the aircraft flies to the first waypoint. 

Step 4 Exocuting Flight Mission 

The aircraft flies to each waypoint in numerical order As it flies, swipe back into the DJI Vision app camera GUI to 

control camera Iii! and capture photos or video Tap Ill to pause the mission during the flight, and aircraft will then start 

hovering Tap ate resume mission If you wish to regain control of the aircraft, toggle the 81 switch on remote controller

Step 5 Landing 

When all waypoints have been visited, the aircraft will return to its Home point and hover Regain control of the aircraft 

and land it manually. You may also tap button to initiate "Go Home" procedure. Aircraft will abort current mission, 

return to Home point and auto land. When the aircraft is landing automatically, users can control the aircraft's position 

and altitude. Users can start the motors to take off immediately after the motors have stopped following auto landing.

If the Remote Controller stick(s) mid-point margin of error is too big, the motors will fail to start when you execute the 

esc and the Phantom will not take off The below are some possible fixes for this 

(1) One of the Remote Controller's stick positions (except the throttle stick) is not centered when powenng on the 

Phantom 2 Vision+ 

Solution: Place all Remote Controller sticks at their mid-point posrtions and then power cycle the Phantom 2 Vision+ 

to r<rrecord the mid-point. 

(2) The Remota Controller sticks have bean trimmed, leading to a deviation in the mid-point posrtion 

Solution: Use Assistant to perform a Remote Controller calibration. 

a) Connect to Assistant, tap Basic -> RC -> Command sticks Calibration and push all Remote Controller sticks 

through their complete travel range to see~ any stick cannot reach its outermost posrtion 

b) Power cycle the Phantom 2 Vision+. Power cycling is required. 

o) Re-attempt Remote Controller calibration in Assistant. 

If the above solutions do not solve your issue, please send your Remote Controller to DJI Customer service for repair, 

3.2 How to restore a video file if power is turned off during a recording session? 

Solution: Keep or place the Micro-SO card back into the camera. Power cycle the camera and wait about 30 seconds for 

the video file to be restored. 

3.3 Failure to acquire the SSID. 

Solution: Double check whether both the camera and Range Extender are powered on and the power switch of the 

camera is swrtched to "Wi-R ON," 

3.4 What to do if Phantom 2 Vision+ is out of sight and the Wi-Fi connections is lost? 

Solution: Tum off the Remota Controller to trigger the Failsafe mode and the aircraH will start to f~ back, descend, and 

land at the Home point. Please make sura there are no obstacles between the Phantom and the home po1nt and that you 

are familiar with the procedure for regaining control 

3.5 Wi-Fi connection fails all the time. 

Solution: Double check the current Wi-R connection status of the mobile device The mobile device may be connecting 

to other Wi-R networks after a connection breaks wrth the Phantom 2 Vision+ 

3.6 Files fail to synchronize. 

Solution: Video files that are too large (file sizes close to 4GB) cannot be synchronized to the mobile device Some 

mobile devices do not support the synchronization of the 1 000i60 video files

3.8 Failure to share. 

Solution: Make sure your mobile device has access to the Internet 

3.9 Some Android devices have a problem connecting to the Phantom 2 Vision+ Wi·Fi Extender. 

Solution: Some Android devices do not allow for both a Wi-R connection and a mobile data connection at the same time 

When trying to connect to the Phantom 2 Vision+ Wi·R network, most devices will check whether an Internet connection 

has a certain Wi·R setting enabled, e.g Auto network switch or Test for Internet connection If no Internet connection 

is found because the Phantom 2 Vision+ creates a non-routable connection it will drop the Phantom 2 Vision+ Wi· 

Fi network connection and scan for the next available connection Example: For the Samsung Note 3, carry out the 

following procedures to solve this issue Tap Settings·> Wi-Fi, and than tap the "Manu' button Select "Advanced" 

than unchack the "Auto network switch" You might see a warning that indicates the Internet connection is unstable this 

massage can be ignored 

3.10 App tips for mobile devices. 

Solution: If using the App on mu~iple mobile devioes turn off the App on the first mobile device then turn it on the second 

one to ensure normal functions on the second mobile device 

3.11 How to land the aircraft more smoothly? 

Solution: Rrst pull the throttle stick position down to lower than 5%, then execute the esc command to stop the motors 

3.12 Why is the discharge time of a battery not zero when unused? 

Solution: A battery aging test is performed prior to delivery which affects the discharge time of the new battery This is 

why the discharge time of a new battery is not zero The battery is okay to use. 

3.13 Do I need extra hardware to utilize ground station? 

Solution: No extra hardware is required. 

3.14 Does ground station support caching map data offline? 

Solution: Yes, user can caohe map data in ground station for future use 

3.15 What if I accidently exit DJI Vision App in ground station mode? 

If DJI Vision App is closed when aircraft is executing flight mission, aircraft oontinues with the remaining flight mission 

If DJI VIsion App is closed and failed to re-conneot with aircraft within 1 minute, aircraft returns home point automatically
