Open the DJI Visio n app camera GU I and swipe left to lau nch groun d sta tion(see Fig ure 1 01). DJI Vision app cannot con n ect to your aircraft while it is accessing the Internet. Hence, you may prompt with the warning message such as " Connection to Phantom Fail ed". T his m essage will not appear when your aircraft is re-connected to DJI Vision app. M ap data of you r c u rrent location will load. You can then drag the map to cache n earby areas for future use( see Fig u re 102).

### 3 . 1 How to solve large margin(s) mid-point error? Appendix

If the Remote Controlle r stick(s) mid-point margin of error is too big, the motors w ill fail to start when you execute the CSC and th e Phantom wi ll not ta ke off. Th e below are some pos si ble fixes for this . (1) O n e of the Rem ote Co ntroller's s tick positions (except the thrott l e stick) i s not centered when poweri ng on the Phantom 2 Vision+. Solution: Place a ll Remote C ontroller s ticks at thei r mid - point positions a nd th en power cycle the Phantom 2 Vision+ to re-record the mid-point. (2) The Remote Controller sticks have been trimmed , lead ing to a deviation in the mid-point posit ion. Sol ution: Use Ass istant to perform a Remote Controller calibration. a) Connect to Assistant , tap Basic 

### - > RC 

### -> Command Sticks Ca li bration and p u sh all R emote Controlle r sticks through t hei r complete travel range to see if any stick cannot reach its o utermost position. b) Power cycle the Phantom 2 Vision+.
