Assembly and Use 

6 Preparing the Range Extender 

The Phantom 2 Vision+ Range Extender is a wireless communication device that operates within the 2.4 GHz frequency 

band. It is used to extending the effective range of communication between a Smartphone and the Phantom 2 Vision+. 

In an open, unobstructed area, the transmission distance can reach up to 700 meters. This can be 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 Range Extender. 

This can be renamed in the DJI VISION App.

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 flight. 

(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 Starting/Stopping the Motors 

2.1 Starting Motors 

A Combination 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 

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

0 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 down the throttle stick to descend. The stick will lock into place and the aircraft will descend steadily. Push 

the throttle stick upward to release throttle lock. 

3 Flight Tes 

3.1 Take off/Landing Procedures 

(1) Place the Phantom 2 Vision+ on open flat ground with battery indicators facing towards you. 

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

(3) Launch the DJI 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 means it has initialized and is Ready to Fly. If it flashes yellow, 

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 on 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.

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

Refer to Failsafe Function(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/phantom2visionplus/training. 

• Aircraft and battery performance is subject 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 check 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 fly in good weather, such as sunny or windless 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.

.L • 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. 

• When the aircraft is landing automatically, 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. 

0 Quickly flipping the S2 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.

3 Troubleshooting (FAQ) 

3.1 How to solve large margin(s) mid-point error? 

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

CSC and the Phantom will not take off. The below are some possible fix this. 

(1) One of the Remote Controller's stick positions (except the thrott k) is not centered when powering on the 

Phantom 2 Vision+. 

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

to re-record the mid-point. 

(2) The Remote Controller sticks have been trimmed, leading to a deviation in the mid-point position. 

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 if any stick cannot reach its outermost position. 

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

c) Re-attempt Remote Controller calibration in Assistant. 

If the above solutions do not solve your issue, please send your Remot troller to DJI Customer service for repair. 

3.2 How to restore a video file if power is turned off during ording session? mintoKeep dommit into the camera. Powe the camera and wait about 30 seconds for 

file to 

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 switched to "Wi-Fi ON." 

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

Solution: Turn off the Remote Controller to trigger the Failsafe mode and the aircraft will start to fly back, descend, and 

land at the Home point. Please make sure there are no obstacles between the Phantom and the home point 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-Fi connection status of the mobile device. The mobile device may be connecting 

to other Wi-Fi networks after a connection breaks with 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 1080i60 video files.
