Re: Request for Exemption under Section 333 of the FAA Modernization and Reform Act of 2012 and Part 11 of the Federal Aviation Regulations from Certain Provisions of 14 C.F.R.
Tough Stump Technologies LLC

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, Antonelli Law files this petition for exemption on behalf of Tough Stump Technologies LLC (“ Tough Stump ”) an operator of Small Unmanned Aircraft Systems (“UAs”) for the commercial purposes of aerial phot ography and videography , surveying and photogrammetry . Specifically, petitioner seeks an exemption from the Federal Aviation Regulations (“FARs”) listed in Appendi x A to allow commercial operation of its UA, so long as such operations are conducted within and under the conditions outlined herein or as may be established by the FAA in a grant of this petition. This request is substantially similar to other data collec tion petitions previously approved, and should be considered under the expedited summary grant procedure.
Approval of the exemption for petitioner will allow operation of the DJI Phantom 2 Vision+ and DJI Phantom 3 Advanced for the proposed uses in Class G airspace nationwide , or as otherwise prescribed by an Air Traffic Organization (ATO) issued COA. The Phantom 2 and Phantom 3 have been previously approved for the proposed uses in the exemption grants identified in Section VII of the petition. The UA s covered by this petition are small battery

- powered craft, weighing no greater than 2.8 lbs. ( 1.3 kg), inclusive of battery and payload. Operation of the UA s under the strict conditions proposed below will provide an equivalent level of safety, as C ongress intended, while still allowing commercial op erations. Operations using these UA s are far safer than conventional operations conducted with helicopters and fixed

- wing aircraft that weigh thousands of pounds, carry large amounts of highly flammable f uel, and operate in close proximity to the ground, trees, infrastructure, and people.
Congress directed the FAA to consider seven factors in deciding whether to approve Section 333 exemption petitions

- size, weight, speed, operational capability, proxim ity to airports,

I. Publishable Summary
Pursuant to 14 C.F.R. §11, the following summary is provided for publication in the Federal Register, should it be determined that publication is needed:
Petitioner seeks an exemption from the following rules:
14 C.F.R 21(h); 14 C.F.R. 43.7; 14 C.F.R. 43.11; 14 C.F.R. 45.11; 14 C.F.R. 45.27; 14 C.F.R. 45 .29; 14 C.F.R. 91.7(a); 14 C.F.R. 91.9(b)(2); 14 C.F.R. 91.9(c); 14 C.F.R. 91.103(b)(2); 14 C.F.R. 91.105; 14 C.F.R. 91.109; 14 C.F.R. 91.113(b); 14 C.F.R. 91.119 (c); 14 C.F.R. 91.121; 14 C.F.R. 91.151(a); 14 C.F.R. 91.203(a) and (b); 14 C.F.R. 91. 215; 14 C.F.R. 91.403; 14 C.F.R. 91.405(a); 14 C.F.R. 91.407(a)(1); 14 C.F.R. 409(a)(1) and (2); and 14 C.F.R. 91.417(a) and (b) to operate commercially small unmanned aircraft systems (UAs) ( 2.8 lbs. or less ).
The requested exemption should be granted because operation of small UA s weighing no greater than 2. 8 lbs. ( 1.3 kg) , inclusive of battery and payload , conducted in the strict conditions outlined below, will provide an equivalent level of safety, while still allowing commercial operations. The lightweight aircraft covered by the exemption are far safer than conventional operations conducted with helicopters and fixed

- wing aircraft weighing thousands of pounds and carrying large amounts of highly flammable fuel, and operating in close proximity to the ground and people. The seven factors Congress directed the FAA to consider when approving Section 333 exemption petitions

- size, weight, speed, operational capability, proximity to airports, proximity to populated areas, and operation within visual line of sigh t

– each support the request. In particular, the aircraft are small, and will operate at slow speeds, and close to the ground. The substantial increase of safety and decrease of risk to human life, coupled with the low risk use of UAs to conduct these oper ations, weigh heavily in favor of granting the exemption.

Appendix A contains a matrix connecting (i) the specific proposed condition with (ii) the FAR provision for which it provides an equivalent level of safety and (iii) one or more recent Section 333 exemption grants in which the FAA recognized this equivalent level of safety.
Approval of the commercial operations outlined in this petition presents no national security issue. The PIC will possess, at minimum, a sport pilot’s certificate . Therefore, h e or she will have been subject to security screenings by the Department of Homeland Security.

V. Proposed Conditions of the Exemption

1. The UA, including battery and technical payload , will weigh no more than approximately 2.8 lbs. (1. 3 kg).

2. UA operations under this exemption will be limited to conducting operations for the purpose of aerial photography, videography, surveying and photogrammetry in Class G airspace nationwide, unless otherwise prescribed by an ATO issued COA.

3. Flights will be operated within line of sight of a PIC and VO.

4. Flights will be operated at an altitude of no more than 4 00 feet AGL, as indicated by the procedures specified in the operating documents. All altitudes reported to ATC must be in feet AGL.

5. The UA will not be flown at an indicated airspeed exceeding 31 knots.

6. Minimum flight crew for each operation will consist of the UA PIC and a VO.

7. The PIC will possess at a minimum a sport pilot license and either a third class medical

# 9

certificate or a U.S. driver’s license.

8. The petitioner will not permit any PIC to operate the UA unless the PIC meets its qualification criteria and demonstrates the ability to safely operate the UA in a manner consistent with how the UA will be operated under this exemption, including evasive and emergency maneuvers and maintaining appropriate distances from persons, vessels, vehicles and structures. PIC qualification flight hours and currency will be logged in a manner consistent with 14 CFR §61.51(b). A record of the PIC training wil l be documented and made available upon request by the Administrator. Training operations will only be conducted during dedicated training sessions. During training, proficiency, and experience

- building flights, all persons not essential for flight operati ons will be considered nonparticipants, and the PIC will operate the UA with appropriate distance from nonparticipants in accordance with 14 CFR § 91.119.

9. The VO will not perform any other duties beyond assisting the PIC with seeing and avoiding other ai r traffic and other ground based obstacles/obstructions, and will not be permitted to operate the camera or other instruments.

10. The PIC will be designated before the flight and will not be allowed to transfer his or her designation for the duration of the flight. The PIC will ensure that the VO can perform the functions prescribed in these conditions and the operating documents.

11. A briefing will be conducted in regard to the planned UA operations prior to each day’s activities. It will be mandatory that all personnel who will be performing duties in connection with the operations be present for this briefing.

12. Prior to each flight, the PIC will inspect the UA , including the Ground Control Station, to ensure it is in a condition for safe flight. If the inspe ction reveals a condition that affects the safe operation of the UA , the PIC will not operate the UA until the necessary maintenance has been performed and the UA is found to be in a condition for safe flight. All maintenance and alterations will be properly documented in the aircraft records.

13. Petitioner will conduct a functional flight test on any UA that has undergone maintenance or alterations that affect the UA operation or flight characteristics, e.g. replacement of a flight critical component. The PIC who conducts the functional test fligh t will make an entry in the aircraft records.

14. The petitioner will carry out its maintenance, inspections, and record keeping requirements, in accordance with the UA manufacturer’s aircraft/component, maintenance, overhaul, replacement, inspection, and l ife limit requirements set forth in the operating documents. Maintenance, inspection, alterations, and status of replacement/overhaul component parts will be noted in the aircraft records, including total time in service, description of work accomplished, and the signature of the authorized person returning the UA to service. The authorized person will make an entry in the aircraft record of the corrective action taken against discrepancies discovered between inspections.

15. The UA will be operated within vis ual line of sight (VLOS) of the PIC and VO at all times. This requires the PIC to be able to use human vision unaided by any device other than corrective lenses. PIC and VO will at all times be able to communicate verbally. They will not

# 10

be permitted to us e electronic messaging or texting to communicate during flight operations.

16. The PIC will not begin a flight unless (considering wind and forecast weather conditions) there is enough power to fly at normal cruising speed to the intended landing point and p repare to land with at least 25% battery power remaining.

17. Actual total flight time for each operational flight will result in no less than a 25% battery
reserve.

18. The UA will have the capability to abort a flight in case of unexpected obstacles or emergen cies.

19. The UA will be programmed so that if it loses communications or loses its GPS signal, it will return to a pre

- determined location within the planned operating area and land or be recovered in accordance with the operating documents

20. If the UA and i ts radio control link disconnect during flight, the system’s failsafe protection will be triggered and the multirotor will return to home and land automatically, rather than flying off uncontrollably or landing at an unknown location.

21. The operating docum ents required under 14 CFR §§ 91.9 and 91.203 will be maintained and available to the PIC at the Ground Control Station of the UA any time the UA is operating. These documents will be made available to the Administrator or any law enforcement official upon request. If a discrepancy exists between the conditions and limitations in the exemption grant and the procedures outlined in the operating documents, the grant conditions and limitations will take precedence and will be followed. Otherwise, the petitione r will follow the procedures outlined in its operating documents. If it updates or revises its operating documents, it will present updated and revised documents to the Administrator upon request. If the petitioner determines that any update or revision wo uld affect the basis upon which the FAA granted the exemption, then the Petitioner will petition for an amendment to the grant of exemption.

22. Petitioner will obtain written and/or oral permission from the landowners/authorized agents of the landowners ove r which flights will be conducted.

23. Petitioner will obtain all required permissions and permits from territorial, state, county or city jurisdictions, including local law enforcement, fire, or other appropriate governmental agencies.

24. UA operations will n ot be conducted during night, as defined in 14 CFR § 1.1. All operations will be conducted under visual meteorological conditions (VMC). Flights will not be conducted under special visual flight rules (SVFR).

25. The petitioner will obtain an Air Traffic Organization (ATO) issued Certificate of Waiver or Authorization (COA) prior to conducting any operations under the grant of exemption. Petitioner will request a Notice to Airman (NOTAM) not more than 72 hours in a dvance, but not less than 24 hours prior to the operation. All operations will be conducted in accordance with airspace requirements in the ATO issued COA, including class of airspace, altitude level

# 11

and potential transponder requirements.

26. The UA will n ot be operated within 5 nautical miles of an airport reference point as denoted on a current FAA

- published aeronautical chart unless a letter of agreement with that airport’s management has been obtained, and the operation is conducted in accordance with a NOTAM as required by the operator’s COA. Any letter of agreement with the airport management will be made available to the Administrator upon request.

27. The UA will not be operated less than 500 feet below, or less than 2,000 feet horizontally from, a clo ud or when visibility is less than 3 statute miles from the PIC.

28. All operations shall be conducted in Class G airspace or as otherwise prescribed in an ATO issued COA.

29. All aircraft operated in accordance with this exemption will be identified by seri al number, registered in accordance with 14 CFR part 47, and have identification (N

- Number) markings in accordance with 14 CFR part 45, Subpart C. Markings will be as large as practicable.

30. Before conducting operations, petitioner will ensure that the rad io frequency spectrum used for operation and control of the UA complies with the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) or other appropriate government oversight agency requirements.

31. The UA will remain clear and yield the right of way to all manned aviation operations and activities at all times.

32. The UA will not be operated by the PIC from any moving device or vehicle.

33. Petitioner will conduct all flight operations at least 5 00 feet fro m all nonparticipating persons, vessels, vehicles, and structures unless one of the following three conditions is met:
a. Barriers or structures are present that sufficiently protect nonparticipating persons from the UA and/or debris in the event of an accide nt. The petitioner will ensure that nonparticipating persons remain under such protection. If a situation arises where nonparticipating persons leave such protection and are within 500 feet of the UA , the PIC will ensure that flight operations cease immedi ately. b. The aircraft is operated near vessels, vehicles or structures where the owner/controller of such vessels, vehicles or structures has granted permission and the PIC has made a safety assessment of the risk of operating closer to those objects and det ermined that it does not present an undue hazard.
c. Operations nearer to the PIC, VO, operator trainees or essential persons do not present an undue hazard to those persons per § 91.119(a).

34. Petitioner will report any incident, accident, or flight operation that transgresses the lateral or vertical boundaries of the operational area as defined by the applicable COA to the FAA's UAS Integration Office (AFS

- 80) within 24 hours. Petitioner will report accidents to the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) per instructions contained on the NTSB Web site: www.ntsb.gov

.

VI. Privacy
There is little concern that the proposed flights will cause invasions of privacy. All flights will occur over either (a) public rights of way where there is no expectation of privacy; or (b) over private property with permission of the landowner/authorized agent and consent of participating individuals.
If data collected is made available for public view, all images containing uninvolved person s will be blurred or blacked

- out. No attempt will be made to identify any individuals filmed during the flights except in cases where they are trespassing upon or damaging customer property, or interfering with the petitioner’s or its customers’ operations

. For more information on petitioner’s privacy policies, please refer to the following sections of Exhibit 1 : Section 1.5: Code of Conduct Section 7: Privacy.

VII. Public Interest and Safety
The planned UA use will increase ground safety for aerial photograp hy and videography , surveying and photogrammetry

. This type of data collection has previously been done by manned aircraft or by individuals on the ground. Both are more time consuming and are more expensive than using UA s . Use of manned aircraft poses enhanced risk to the pilot and onboard crew, who would be several hundred feet in the air.
The enhanced safety and reduced envir onmental impact achieved using UA s and carrying no passengers or crew, rather than a manned air craft of significantly greater mass , carrying crew in addition to flammable fuel, gives the FAA good cause to find that the UA operation enabled by this exemption is in the public interest.
Satisfaction of the criteria provided in Section 333 of the Refor m Act of 2012

– size, weight, speed, operating capabilities, proximity to airports and populated areas and operation within visual line of sight and national security

– provide more than adequate justification for the grant of the requested exemption allow ing commercial operation of petitioner’s UA s for aerial photography and videography , surveying and photogrammetry pursuant to Tough Stump ’ s rules of operation.
The FAA has previously determined that using t he Phantom 2 Vision+ for aerial surveying operations is within the public interest in the following Exemption Nos. : 11881 (aerial surveying); 11991 (crop surveying); 11928 (surveying services); 11957 (crop surveying); 11962 (right of way surveys); 11992 (aerial surveys); 11993 (surveying services); 12010 (aerial surveys); 12031 (aerial surveys); and

# Bas ic Flying Control Mode Knowledge Please read the Control Mode Knowledge clearly before usage, to know how to control the aircraft. Different control modes will give you different flight performances. Please make sure you understand the fe atures

and differences of the three control modes.

GPS ATTI. Mode ( With GPS Module ) ATTI. Mode Manual Mode

Rudder Angular Velocity Maximum rudder angular velocity is 150°/s

Command Linearity YES

Command Stick Meaning Multi attitude control; Stick cente r position for 0 ̊ attitude, its endpoint is 35 ̊. Max

- angular velocity is 150°/s. No attitude angle limitation and vertical velocity locking.
Altitude Lock Maintain the altitude best above 1 meter from ground. NO

Stick Released Lock position if GPS signal is adequate. Only attitude stabilizing. NOT Recommend

GPS Lost When GPS signal has been

lost for 3s, system enters ATTI. Mode automatically. Only performing attitude stabilizing without position lock. ---

Safety Attitude & speed mixture control ensures stability Depends on experience.

Enhanced Fail

- Safe(Position lock when hovering) Auto Level Fail

- Safe (Attitude stabilizing) With GPS/Compass module and the failsafe requirements are satisfied, in each Control Mode (including GPS Mode, ATTI. Mode, Man ual Mode and IOC Mode), the aircraft will
enter the failsafe Mode. Applications AP work Sports flying.

---


## Start & Stop Motor Knowledge

(1) Both Immediately Mode and Intelligent Mode are available in the Assistant Software:
Advanced

- >Motor

- >Stop Type. (2) Sto p Motor method is defaulted to Immediately Mode

. Please get to know well about this section before flying.
1 Start Motor : Pushing throttle stick before takeoff will not start the motors. You have to execute any one of following four Combination Stick Comman ds (CSC) to start the motors:2 St op Motor : We provide two options to stop motors in the assistant software : Imm ediately and Intelligent.

(1) Immedia tely Mode: If you select this mode, in any control mode, once motors start and throttle stick is over 10%, motors will not stop immediately only when throttle stick is back under 10% the motors will stop. In this case, if you push the throttle stick over 1 0% within 5 seconds after motors stop, motors

will re

- start, CSC is not needed. If you don’t push throttle stick after motors start in three seconds,
motors will stop automatically. (2) Intelligent Mode: By using this mode, different control mode has different way of stopping motors. In Manual Mode, only executing CSC can stop motors. In A TTI. Mode or GPS ATTI . Mode, any one of
following four cases will stop motors: a) You don’t push throttle stick after motors start within three seconds; b) Executing CSC; c) Throttle s tick under 10 %, and after landing for more than 3 seconds. d) If the angle of multi

- rotor is over 70°, and throttle stick under 10%.



## Notes of Intelligent Mode

(1) In ATTI. / GPS ATTI. Mode, it has landing judgment, which will stop motors.
(2) Start motors in ATTI. / GPS ATTI. Mode, you have to execute CSC and then push throttle stick over 10% in 3 seconds, otherwise motors will stop after 3 seconds. (3) During normal flight, only pull throttle stick under 10% will not stop motors in any control mode. (4) For safety reason, when the slope angle of multi

- rotor is over 70° during the flight in ATTI. / GPS ATTI. Mode (may be caused by collision, motor and ESC error or propeller broken down), and throttle stick is under 10%, motors will stop automatically. 

## Notes of Intelligent Mode & Immediately Mode

(1) If you choose the Immediately Mode , you should not pull throttle stick under 10% during flight, because it will stop motors. If you do it accidentally, you should push the throttle stick over 10%

in 5s to re

- start motors. (2) DO NOT e xecute the CSC during normal flight without any reason, or it will stop motors at

once. (1) If you choose the Intelligent mode, and the throttle stick is under 10%, this will trigger the landing Procedure, in any control mode. In this judgment, pitch, roll and yaw controls are denied
except the throttle, but multi

- rotor will still auto level. (2) In any control mode, DO NOT pull throttle stick under 10% during normal flight without any

reason. (1) Any of these two cut off types will only work properly if T X calib ration is correct done. (2) In failed

- safe, CSC is denied by the main controller, motors will hold their state.

### Step 

# 1 Compass Calibration Without GPS module, please skip this step. If you use w ith GPS module, follow step

- by

- step for calibration.

(1) DO NOT cali brate your compass where there is magnetic interference, such as magnetite, car park, and steel reinforcement under the ground. (2) DO NOT carry ferromagnetic materials with you during calibration, such as keys or cell phones. (3) Compass module CANNOT work in the polar circle. (4) Compass Calibration is very important, otherwise the system will work abnormal. 

### Calibration Procedures

1. Switch on the transmitter, and then power on autopilot system!

2. Quickly switch the control mode switch from GPS Mode to Manual Mode and b ack to GPS Mode (or

from GPS Mode to ATTI. Mode and back to GPS Mode ) for more than 5 times, The LED indicator will turn on constantly yellow so that the aircraft is ready for the calibration

. 3. (Fig.1) Hold your Multi

- rotor horizontal and r otate it around t he gravitational force line (about 360 o ) until the LED changes to constant green, and then go to the next step.
4. (Fig.2) Hold your Multi

- rotor vertically and rotate it ( its nose is downward ) around the gravitational force
line (about 360 o ) until the LED turn s off, meaning the calibration is finished

.

Fig.1 Fig.2

5. If the calibration was successful, calibration mode will exit automatically. If the LED keeps flashing quickl y Red, the calibration has failed. Switch the control mode switch one time to cancel the calibration, and

then re

- start from step 2.
(1) When the GPS is abnormal, the Main controller will tell you by the LED blinking Red and Yellow alternately ( ), disable the GPS Module, and automatically enter the aircraft into the

ATTI. Mode. (2) You don’t need to rotate your multi

- rotor on a precise horizontal or vertical surface, but keep at
least 45° difference between horizontal and vertical calibration. (3) If you keep having calibration failure, it might suggest that there is very strong magnetic interference around the GPS /Compass module, please avoid flying in this area.
(4) When to do re

- calibration a) The flight field is changed. b) When the multi

- rotor mechanical setup has changed:

 If the GPS/Compass module is re

- positioned.
 If electronic devices are added/removed/ re

- positioned (Main Controller, servos, batteries, etc.).

 When the mechanical structure of the multi

- rotor is changed.c) If th e flight direction appears to be shifting (meaning the multi

- rotor doesn’t “fly straight”). d) The LED indicator often indicates abnormality blinking when the multi

- rotor spins. (It is normal for this to happen only occasionally)



## Step 

# 2 Assembly Checking Lis

t Please check each item, to make sure for safety.

Any of the following mistakes will lead to a dangerous accident, double check all these items: (1) Rotation direction of motor is opposite (2) Infirm connection between the motor and the ESC (3) Wrong or infirm i nstallation of Main controller (4) Wrong or infirm connection between the main controller and ESC. (5) Propeller installation mistak e (6) M agnetiz ation of t he compass Make sure the following items are correct. (1) Make sure you have assembled your multi

- rotor correctl y. (2) Make sure you have done the configuration procedure correctly. (3) Make sure all connections are in good condition. (4) Make sure batteries are fully charged for your transmitter, autopilot system and all devices.



## Step 

# 3 Before Flight Carry out the following p rocedures (is based on Intelligent Mode of Motor Stop) to make sure all configurations are correct. Refer to the Appendix

- >LED Description for more LED details.

1. Always switch on the transmitter first, then power on multi

- rotor!

2. Keep the aircraft stationa ry until the system start and self

- check has finished ( )

. After that, the LED may blink Yellow 4 times quickly ( )

. Start motor is disable during LED blink ing
Yellow 4 tim es quickly ( ) , as the system is warm ing up

. 3. After the 4 times Yellow LED disappear s, t oggle the control mode switch on your transmitter to make sure it

is working properly. For examp le, LED blinks ( ), which means the system is in ATTI. Mode and the
GPS s ignal is worst Check it with LED indicator to specify the current working mode for MC. See following

table for details about LED indicator; (1) There are Manual Mode and ATTI. Mode without a GPS /Compass module, no GPS signal status LED
indicator. (2) After connect ing to the GPS /Compass module, GPS ATTI. Mode is available , and GPS signal status
LED indicator is available

.Control Mode LED I ndicator GPS Signal Status LED Indicator

Manual Mode: NO LED

ATTI. Mode: ( indicates that is stick(s) not at center)

GPS Mode : ( indicates that is stick(s) not at center ) Signal is best ( GPS satellites > 6 ) : NO LED Signal is well ( GPS satellites = 6 ) : Signal is bad ( GPS satellites = 5 ) : Signal is worst ( GPS satellites< 5 ) :
4. Keep the aircraft stationary, and then push both sticks to the left bottom or right bottom (shown as the
following chart , defined as Combi nation Stick Commands (CSC) ), to start the motors.

5. Release the yaw, roll and pitch sticks and keep them at the mid point
, and the throttl e stick under the mid
point

. T hen check whether all propellers are rotating correctly.

6. Stop motors, power off the Multi

- rotor

. 7. Make sure all settings and configurations are correct and then you can take off you aircraft.



### After power on , if abnormal LED In dicator occurs, please refer to the Abnormal LED instruction in the FAQ and aids troubleshooting.



### Step 

# 4 Flying Test

1. Choose an open space without obstruction, tall buildings and crowds as flying filed. Place the aircraft 3
meters away from you and others, to avoid accidental injury.

2. If in GPS ATTI. Mode, place the aircraft in an open space without buildings or trees. Take off the aircraft after 6 or more GPS satellites are found (Red LED blinks once or no blinking). If in Manual Mode or ATTI. Mode, you can skip this step.

3. Start

- up (1) S witch on the transmitter first, then power on multi

- rotor! Keep the aircraft stationary until the
system start and self

- check has finished. (2) Please wait for the system to warm up gradually with the LED blinks Yellow 4 times quickl y ( ). You should not start the motors until the blinking disappears. (3) Keep the aircraft stationary, and execute the CSC to start the motors. (4) Release the yaw, roll and pitch sticks and keep them at the mid point , at the same time raise the throttle stick from the bottom. The motors will stop if you do not push the throttle stick from the bottom within 3 sec and you will need to re

- start the motors. (5) Keep raising the throttle stick until all the rotors are working, pu sh the throttle stick to the mid point

and then take

- off your multi

- rotor gently, pay attention not to push the stick excessively.(6) Pay attention to the aircraft movement at any time when flying, and use the sticks to adjust the

aircraft’s position. Keep th e yaw, roll, pitch and throttle sticks at the mid point to hover the aircraft at the desired height. 

### 4. Lower the aircraft slowly. Pull the throttle stick to the bottom and then execute the CSC to stop the motors after landing. 

### 5. Please always power off the Mu lti

- rotor first, and then switch off the transmitter after landing.



### FLYING NOTES(VERY IMPORTANT) !!! (1) If the warm up waiting is longer than 2 minutes (the 4 times Yellow blink c ontinue s ), please power
off for 10 minutes, cold start, and then connect the assistant software, enter the "Tools"

- > IMU
calibration, carry out t he Advanced calibration. (2) I f you enable the Immediately Mode of Motor Stop ; you should not pull throttle stick under 10% during flight, because it will stop motors. If you do it accidentally, you should push the throttle

stick over 10% in 5s to re

- start mot ors. (3) DO NOT execute the CSC during normal flight without any reason, or it will stop motors at once. (4) Pay attention to the GPS satellite status LED indicator. Bad GPS signal may lead the aircraft to drift when hovering. (5) DO NOT fly near to ferromagnetic sub stances, to avoid strong magnetic interference with the

GPS. (6) Please avoid using GPS ATTI. Mode in the areas, where GP S signal is most likely bad

. (7) If the LED flashes quickly Red then this indicates battery voltage is low, land ASAP. (8) If the transmitter indic ates low

- battery alarm, please land ASAP. In this condition the transmitter
may cause the aircraft to go out of control or even crash. (9) In GPS ATTI. Mode, make sure that the home point is recorded when the GPS signal is well;
otherwise the home point recor ding may be not so precise.
(1) In ATTI Mode, throttle stick center position is for 0m/s along the vertical direction. You should keep the position of throttle stick higher than 10% from cut

- throttle during the flight! In any control mode, DO NOT pull throt tle stick under 10% during normal flight without any reason. (2) It is recommended to land the aircraft slowly, to prevent the aircraft from damage when landing.
(3) If Low

- Voltage Alarm is set, the aircraft will act according to the configuration of the Assistant
Software once Low

- Voltage Alarm is triggered. Make sure you remember what you have set

before. (4) If Fail

- Safe function is set, the aircraft will act according to the configuration of the Assistant
Software once Fail

- Safe is triggered. Make sure you remember what you have set before.

# Advanced Functions

# 1 FailSafe An introduction of Go

- Home and Landing.

Home

- point: Before takeoff, current position of multi

- rotor will be saved as home

- point by MC automatically when

you start the motors for the first time after 6 or more GPS satellites are found (red light blinks once or no blinking)

for 10 seconds.

(1) Please make sure to record the home

- point before takeoff, and clearly know where it is. (2) During go

- home the nose direction of the aircraft is facing toward the home

- point, the aircraft is flying directly from the current position to the home

- point. (3) You can regain the control during the aircraft is hovering 15 seconds.

## A 

# 2 Low

- Voltage Alert In order to pre vent your multi

- rotor from a crash or other harmful consequences caused by low battery voltage, there are two levels of low voltage protection available to use. You can choose to use or not to use them; however
we strongly recommend using the protections i f available! Low

- Voltage Alert is to indicate that the battery cannot provide enough power for the aircraft, in order to warn you to land the aircraft ASAP. You can configure this

function in the assistant software, and please read the text in the software carefully before your flight. Make sure to carry out the Current Voltage Calibration.

There are both first level and second level protections. The first level protection has LED warning. During second
level protection the aircraft will land automatically with LED warning. Meanwhile the center point of throttle stick will move up slowly to 90% of endpoint, you should land ASAP to prevent your aircraft from crashing! It is not for fun, you should land your aircraft ASAP to prevent your aircraft from crashin g or other harmful consequences!!!

(1) Configure the FailSafe function in the assistant software

# 3 Intelligent Orientation Control (IOC) Flight (with GPS module)
Definition of Forward Direction:



### Multi -rotor will fly along this direction when you push the elevator stick ( ). 

## Step 

# 1 Before You Start Usually, the forward direction of a flying multi

- rotor is the same as the nose direction. By using IOC, wherever the nose points, the forward direction has nothing to do with nose direction. The red and blue arrows on th e transmitter are corresponding to pitch and roll operations in the following diagram.

 In course lock flying, the forward direction is the same as a recorded nose direction. All the following requirements are met: the autopilot system is in ATTI. Mode or G PS ATTI. Mode.

Normal flying Course Lock Flying

 In home lock flying, the forward direction is the same as the direction from home point to multi

- rotor. All the following requirements are met: 6 or more GPS satellites a re found, in GPS ATTI. Mode, and the aircraft is further than 10m away from the home point.

Normal flying Home Lock Flying 

## Step 

# 2 IOC Switch Setting Before using the IOC function, you have to choose a 3

- position switch on your transmitter as the IOC switch, which
is also used for recording the orientation, home position in corresponding modes. Refer to the assistant software;
click the “Advanced” to find the “IOC”.

IOC Switch

IOC Function OFF Course Lock H ome Lock

The above table is for example. The function of the switch position may be reversed since the normal/reversed setting of the switch channel. Toggle the switch and observe the slider position of
channel X2 on the assistant software screen, the corresponding area should turn blue.

## Step 

# 3 Method of Forward Direction and Home Point Recording If you use the IOC function, please be aware of the Forward Direction of Course Lock Flying, and the home point of Home Lock Flying. There are two ways to reco rd the forward direction and the home point : Manually and Automatically. You may choose any one record method. The LED will blink Green quickly if successfully recorded.

Course Lock Home Lock

Automatically 30 seconds after you power on the autopilot sys tem. Before takeoff, the current position of the aircraft will be saved as home point when you start the

motors for the first time after 6 or more GPS
satellites have been found for 10 seconds.

Manually 30 seconds after you power on the

autopilot system. Toggle the IOC switch from Off to Course Lock, and back to Off

quickly 3 to 5 times. After 6 or more GPS satellites have been found.
A nd the aircraft can be hovering. Toggle the IOC switch from Course Lock to Home Lock, and back to Course Lock quickly 3 t o 5 times. DO NOT toggle the switch between Off to Home Lock, since it may change the recording of the
Forward Direction of Course Lock

. 

## Step 

# 4 IOC Flying Test Then you can do Course Lock and Home Lock flying test

. Carry out an IOC flight by the followi ng procedure. The Control Mode LED will blink Yellow and Green
alternatively ( ) to indicate the IOC mode only when the main controller is really to fly in Course Lock, Home
Lock modes. During the same flight STEP1 : Record STEP2: ON STEP3: OFF STEP4: ON again

(1) When Multi

- rotor is flying by home lock far away from you and the home point, please DO NOT toggle the IOC switch many times quickly so as to avoid the change of home point wi thout your

attention.
(1) Home lock flying requires that 6 or more GPS satellites are found and the aircraft is further than 10m away from the home point. (2) If the IOC flying requirement is not satisfied, the autopilot system will quit IOC control mode.

Pleas e be aware of the LED indicator, to know the current control mode of the autopilot system.

(1) Blinking indications of IOC are: a) Before motors start: blink, all sticks (except throttle stick) return to center; blink, stick(s) (except throttle stick) not at center.
b) After motors start and throttle stick is over 10% in 3 seconds: blink, all sticks return

to center; bli nk, stick(s) not at center. (2) Before you do the home lock flight, you have to fly the aircraft out of the 10m range around home point, and then flip the IOC switch to Home Lock position to fly in home lock when all the requirements are met. If you have alrea dy toggled the IOC switch to Home Lock position when the aircraft is still in 10m range around home point, and this is the first time you are going to fly
in home lock during the current flight, then if all the requirements are met, the main controller

wil l change into home lock automatically when Multi

- rotor flies out the 10m range around home
point. (3) When flying in Home Lock mode, if any of the following situations happen, then the system will quit Home Lock flying and automatically enter Course Lock flyin g. The aircraft will fly in Course Lock using the earlier forward direction. a) The aircraft fly’s within 10m range of the home point. b) You toggle the control mode switch to the ATTI. Mode. c) The GPS signal becomes bad (The GPS signal LED is blinking Red twice o r three times).
(4) We suggest that you should know clearly which flight lock method you are going to fly, and you know the locked forward direction or home point, before you switch on IOC mode during the
flight.

# 4 Receiver Advanced Protection Function

Y ou are asked to enable this function by connecting to the Assistant Software, please set it at the section of

Basic

- >R/C

- > Receiver Advanced Protection. If you choose enable it, the FailSafe will be triggered if the following situations occur during flight

. According to the differen ce of the aircraft height, there are two situations.

1. Lower than 100m, the A/E/R channel is not at the mid point

. 2. Higher than 100m, the A/E/R channel is not at the mid point or the throttle stick is above the mid point

. I n the GPS Mode or ATTI. Mode, if the requirement a) or b) is satisfied, and the output data of four channels
A/E/R/T h ave not changed for 20 seconds, then the aircraft will hover automatically. A fter that, if the output data of four channels A/E/R/T still do not an y change s and last for 10 seconds, the autopilot system will think that the
data from receiver is abnormal, and then enter the FailSafe Mode.
Brief introduction of how to quit the FailSafe Mode If there is any command change from the receiver, the autopil ot system thinks that the receiver is regained. I n ATTI. Mode and Manual Mode, it will quit the FailSafe Mode automatically

. I n GPS Mode, please toggle the control mode switch to the ATTI. Mode and Manual Mode position to regain the control. Refer to the F ailSafe section for more

details.

## A5 Flight Limits

T he flight limits function is default enabled in the NAZA

- M Flight control system, it ’ s aimed to restrict the flying height and distance of the aircraft. T he Max Height restricts the vert ical distance between the aircraft and the Home point, the Max Radius restricts the horizontal distance between the aircraft and the Home point.

T he default Max Height is 2000m and Max Radius is 2000m

. U sers can write the values of the Max Height and Max

R adius in the Assistant software, t he range of the Max Height is 10m

- 100000m, the range of the Max Radius is the

same. S o that the aircraft will fly in the entered range, which is a cylinder space above the Home point.

(1) Heigh t Limit work s when the contr ol mode is GPS or ATTI. Mode

. Radius Limit work s when the

control mode is GPS and the s atellite number ≥6

. (2) If the aircraft flies out of the limits, it's still controllable except flying further away. (3) If the control mode is changed to GPS when the aircraft is out of Max Radius, the aircraft will fl y back within the entered range

. (4) The Failsafe and the Ground Station operations are not restricted to the Flight Limits.

# FAQ
Abnormal LED Indication List During the Checking Procedure, if abnormal LED Indicator occurs or even the system cannot work normally, please
refer to the following list and aids troubleshooting.
(1) “System initializing and self

- checking LED flashes” are not correct ( Red LED
appears in the l ast four green flashes). The autopilot system works abnormally. Please contact your

dealer. (2) LED blinks Yellow 4 times quickly ( )

. The system is warming up. You cannot start the motors until the 4 rapid yellow flas hes disappear. If the warm up waiting is longer than 2 minutes, please power off for

5 minutes, cold start, and then connect the assistant software, enter the "Tools"

- > IMU calibration, carry

out the Advanced calibration. (3) After the system start and self

- checking has finished, if the LED blinks Red, Green and Yellow ( ) continually. Sensor error is too big. Please connect the assistant software, enter the "Tools"

- > IMU
calibration, carry out calibration. (4) At the first motors sta rt, the system will check the sensors Bias and you are asked to keep the aircraft stationary (no need of horizontal level). If you cannot start the motors and the LED blinks Green 6 times
quickly ( ), it means that the sensor error is too big. Please connect the assistant software,

enter the "Tools"

- > IMU calibration, carry out basic calibration.

Note: after the first successful motors start, this checking will be disabled and it is no need any more to
keep the ai rcraft stationary during starting motors. (5) The system blinks Red LED quickly during flying. Low

- voltage protection is triggered. Please land the

aircraft ASAP. (6) The system blinks Yellow LED quickly during flying. FailSafe Mode is triggered. Pay attention tha t there is no tall buildings and trees to block your aircraft during go

- home. (7) The LED blinks Red and Yellow alternately ( ). Compass error is too big. a) There may be a ferromagnetic substance close to the Phantom. Li ft the aircraft up about 1m from the ground, if there is no Red and Yellow flashing, then it will not affect the flight. b) Otherwise, re

- calibrate the compass. c) If re

- calibration does not work, please connect to the Assistant Software, select the “Tools” and
follow the tips to carry out the required operation.



## Fix the TBE (Toilet Bowl Effect) Problem When flying in GPS ATTI. Mode and the compass calibration has been done correctly, should you find the aircraft rotating (Toilet bowl effect), or drifting when hovering. P lease check the GPS module mounting orientation and then

re
- do the compass calibration. Carry out the following procedure to re

- mount the GPS module.In t he following diagram (view from the top), the aircraft can appear to be rotating in both cl ockwise and

counter

- clockwise direction, please re

- mount the GPS module correspondingly.

## Sh ould you find the multi

- rotor does not track straight in forward flight

. Please carry out several more courses, the system will fix it automatically.



## Motors Start failure caused by TX stick(s) mid

- point error too big If the TX stick(s) mid

- point error is too big, Motors Start will fail when you execute the Combination Stick Commands (CSC) and lead to the aircraft will not takeoff.. And the LED will blink Red four times per second
continually to warn you. TX stick(s) mid

- point error too big can be caused by the following reasons: (1) There is TX stick (except the throttle stick) not at center when power on the autopilot system

. (2) The TX sticks has been trimmed, which lead s to the large deviation of mid

- point . For example, the

SUB

- TRIM has been adjusted for Futaba transmitter. (3) The TX stick(s) travel has larger asymmetry. For the reason (1), please put all TX sticks at the mid

- point , and then power cycle the autopilot system to re

- record

the mid

- point . If the problem continues, that can be caused by the reason (2) or reason (3), yo u need to adjust the output range of your TX, and then use the Assistant S oftware to redo the TX calibration. Please carry out the
following procedures. (1) Connect to the Assistant software, click Basic

- > R/C

- > Command Sticks Calibration, and p ush all TX
sticks throughout their complete travel range to see if any stick cannot reach its largest position. (2) Adjust the largest travel of TX stick until the cursor on the Assistant software can reach both end positions, according to your TX manual. (3) Powe r cycle the autopilot system, note that power cycle is required. (4) Redo the TX calibration according to the Assistant software.

Never use non-DJI batteries. Go to www.DJI. com to purchase new batteries. DJI takes noresponsibility for any accidents caused by nonDJI batteries. Never use or charge a swollen, leaky or damaged battery. If so, contact DJI or its designated dealers for further assistance. Do NOT install the battery into the battery

com partment on the Phantom when turned on. Turn off the battery before installing it or removing it from the Phantom. Never install or remove the battery from the Phantom when it is turned on. The battery should be used in temperatures from -20°C to 40°C. Use of the battery above 50°C can lead to a fire or explosion. Use of battery below -20°C can lead to permanent damage. Do not use the battery in strong electrostatic or electromagnetic environments. Otherwise, the battery control board may malfunction and a serious accident may happen during flight. Never disassemble or pierce the battery in any way, or the battery may catch fire or explode. Electrolytes in the battery are highly corrosive. If any electrolytes splash onto your skin or eyes, immediately wash the affected area with fresh running water for at least 15 minutes then see a doctor immediately. Check the condition of the battery if it falls out of the Phantom. Make sure the battery is NOT damaged or leaking before putting it back to the Phantom. Land the Phantom imm ediately when the low battery level warning activates in the DJI VISION App. Do not drop the battery into water. If the inside of the battery comes into contact with water, chemical decomposition may occur, potentially resulting the battery catching on fire, and may even lead to an explosion. If the battery falls into water with the Phantom during flight, take it out immediately and put it in a safe and open area. Maintain a far distance from the battery until it is completely dry. Never use the battery again, and dispose of the battery properly as described in Battery Disposal below. Put o ut any battery fire using sand or a dry powder fire extinguisher.

### 13 

# Flight Modes, Functions and Warnings

**Flight Modes**

**To avoid serious injury and property damage, observe the following rule:** 1) **Do NOT switch from P mode to either A mode or F mode unless you are sufficiently familiar with** 

**the aircraft’s behavior for each flight mode, since disabling GPS may result in being unable to land the aircraft safely.** 

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

of P mode, which will be automatically selected by the 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 aircraft will use the Vision Positioning System to hover accurately.

Note that the Vision Positioning System may NOT work properly when the Phantom 3 is flying over water, over surfaces without a clear pattern, or in a low light environment. c) P-ATTI: When neither GPS nor Vision Positioning is available, the aircraft is using only its barometer for

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 home if the Remote Controller signal is lost and if the Home Point has been recorded successfully. 3) F mode (Function): Intelligent Orientation Control (IOC) is activated in this mode. Ensure you are familiar

with IOC functions before use.

If you intend to switch to modes that disable GPS assistance (e.g., A mode), you are required to accept the 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.



### Failsafe and Return to Home

1) The Return to Home feature will NOT work if the GPS signal is i nsufficient or 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 of turning off the remote controller. 3) Tall buildings may adversely affect the Failsafe function. Please adjust the aircraft location, altitude and

speed while returning home to avoid obstacles. 4) Make sure to always fly the aircraft within the transmission ran ge of the remote controller. 5) Only use the Failsafe and Return to Home functions in case of emergency, as they may be affected by the

weather, the environment, or any nearby magnetic fields.

### 14 © 2015 DJI. All Rights Reserved. 6) The aircraft cannot avoid obstacles during the Failsafe RTH; therefore it is important to set an appropriate

Failsafe altitude before each flight. 7) When flying indoors, the aircraft cannot perform precision hover ing when flying above the surfaces that do

not have a clear pattern. Refer to the “Vision Positioning Syst em” section for complete indoor flying criteria.



### Low Battery

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 damage to the aircraft, p roperty, animals, and people.



### Vision Positioning System

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) The Vision Positioning System may NOT function properly when th e aircraft is flying over water. 3) Kee p your pets away from the aircraft when the Vision Positioning System is activated, as the sonar

sensors emit a high frequency sound that is only audible to some pets. 4) Note that the Vision Positioning System may NOT function proper ly when the aircraft is flying too fast or too low. 5) Operate the aircraft cautiously when in any of the following situations:

a) Flying over monochrome surfaces (e.g., pure black, pure white, pure red, pure green). b) Flying over highly reflective surfaces; c) Flying at high speeds (over 8m/s at 2 meters or over 4m/s at 1 meter); d) Flying over water or transparent surfaces; e) Flying over moving surfaces or objects; f) Flying in an area where the lighting changes frequently or drastically; g) Flying over extremely dark (lux < 10) or bright (lux > 10,000) surfaces; h) Flying over surfaces that can absorb sound waves (e.g., thick c arpet). i ) Flying over surfaces without clear patterns or texture; j ) Flying over surfaces with identical repeating patterns or textu res (e.g. tiles with same design); k) Flying over inclined surfaces that will deflect sound waves away from the aircraft

6) In the event of loss of the remote controller’s signal, the aircraft will hover for 8 seconds and then auto-land

if it is in “P” mode.© 2015 DJI. All Rights Reserved.
