# Aircraft Flight Controller The Phantom 3 Professional's flight controller features several important upgrades, including a new flight mode. Safety modes include Failsafe and Retum-to-Home. These features ensure the safe return of your aircraft if the control signal is lost. The flight controller can also save critical flight data from each flight to the on-board storage device. The new flight controller also provides increased stability and a new air braking feature. 

## Flight Mode Three flight modes are available. The details of each flight mode are found below: D P-mode (Positioning) : P-mode works best when GPS signal is strong. There are three different states 0 1 

### of P-mode, which will be automatically selected by the Phantom 3 Professional depending on signal = strength of GPS and Vision Positioning sensors : P-GPS: GPS and Vision Positioning both are available. The aircraft is using GPS for positioning. P-OPTI: Vision Positioning is available but the GPS signal strength is not sufficient. The aircraft is using only the Vision Positioning System for positioning. P-ATTI: Neither GPS nor Vision Positioning is available. The aircraft is using only its barometer for positioning, so only altitude can be stabilized. A-mode (Attitude): GPS and Vision Positioning System are not used for stabilizafion. The aircraft only uses its barometer. The aircraft can still automatically return to the home point if the control signal is lost and the Home Point was recorded successfully. F-mode (Function): Intelligent Orientation Control (IOC) is activated in this mode. For more information about IOC, refer to the IOC section in the Appendix. 

## jo; Use the Flight Controller mode switch to change the flight mode of the aircraft, refer to the "Flight Mode Switch" on Page 26 

### for more information. 

## Flight Status Indicator The Phantom 3 Professional has Front LEDs and Aircraft Status Indicators. The positions of these LEDs are shown in the figure below:

Fr^ r. L=C — AircraftStatuslndicator



### The Front LEDs show the orientation of the aircraft. The Front LEDs glow solid red when the aircraft is turned on to indicate the front (or nose) of the aircraft. The Aircraft Status Indicators communicate the system status of the flight controller. Refer to the table below for more information about the Aircraft Status Indicators:

Return-to-Home (RTH) The Return-to-Home (RTH) function brings the aircraft back to the last recorded Home Point. There are three types of RTH procedures: Smart RTH, Low Battery RTH, and Failsafe RTH. This section describes these three scenarios in detail. 

# [j] I GPS 

# I Description If a strong GPS signal was acquired before takeoff, the Home Pant Home Point ?t is the location from which the aircraft was Iaunched. The GPS signal ,ll strength is indicated by the GPS icon (? ► ,II ). The aircraft status

indicator will blink rapidly when the home point is recorded. 

## Smart RTH Use the RTH button on the remote controller (refer to "RTH button" on page 26 for more information) or tap the RTH button in the DJI GO app and follow the on-screen instructions when GPS is available to initiate Smart RTH. The aircraft will then automatically return to the last recorded Home Point. You may use the remote controller's conVol sticks to control the aircraft's position to avoid a collision during the Smart RTH process. Press and hold the Smart RTH button once to start the process, and press the Smart RTH button again to terminate the procedure and regain full control of the aircraft.

### Tap "Go-home" to have the aircraft return to the Home point and land automatically, or "Cancel" to resume nor mal flight. If no action is taken, the aircraft will automalically go home and land after 10 seconds. Remote controller will sound an alarm. Fly the aircraft back and land it as soon as possible, then stop the motors and replace the battery.
The DJI GO app display will flash red and the aircraft will Ailow the aircraft to descend and land start to descend. The remote controller will sound an alarm. automatically.

Phantom 3 Professional User Manual 

## Low Battery RTH The low battery level failsafe is triggered when the DJI Intelligent Flight Battery is depleted to a pant that may affect the safe return of the aircraft. Users are advised to return home or land the aircraft immedialely when prompted. The DJI GO app will display a notice when a low battery warning is triggered. The aircraft will automatically return to the Home Point if no action is taken after a ten-second countdown. The user can cancel the RTH procedure by pressing the RTH button on the remote controller. The threshoids for these warnings are automatically determined based on the aircraft's current altitude and distance from the Home Point. The aircraft will land automalically if the current baltery level can only support the aircraft long enough to descend from its current altitude. The user can still use the remote controller to alter the aircraft's orientation during the landing process. The Battery Level Indicator is displayed in the DJI GO app, and is described below:

How do I use the Director automatic video editor? 

### Director is an automatic video editor built into the DJI GO app. After recording several video clips, simply tap "Director" from the app's home screen. You can then select a template and a specified number of clips, which are automatically combined to create a short film that can be shared immediately.
How do I change the control mode of my Phantom 3? By default, the Remote Controller is set to Mode 2. This means that the right control stick controls the 

### movement of the aircraft and the left control stick controls the throttle and orientation of the aircraft. These controls can be changed to Mode 1 or set to a customized configuration in the DJI GO app. This is only recommended for advanced users.

Can 1 use a Phantom 2 Remote Controller with the Phantom 3? No. The Phantom 2 Remote Controller operates on a different frequency. The Phantom 2 Remote Controller 

### operates at 5.8 GHz and the new Phantom 3 Remote Controller operates at 2.4 GHz.
Can I use a Phantom 2 Intelligent Flight Battery with the Phantom 3? 

# ~ No. The Phantom 3 uses a newly designed Intelligent Flight Battery with greater power. The Phantom 3 has a 4 cell battery with a capacity of 4480 mAh and a voltage of 15.2 V. My Phantom 3 does not turn off right away, is something wrong? This is normal. After you attempt to power off the Intelligent Flight Battery, it may remain on for a few seconds as any video data is saved to the Micro SD card. This helps prevent your data from being lost or corrupted.
Do I have to buy the Remote Controller separately? 

### No, there is no need to buy a separate Remote Controller. Your Phantom 3 comes with a Remote Controller that is already linked to the aircraft.
Does my Phantom 3 support dual Remote Controllers? 

### No. The included Remote Controller can be used to control both the aircraft and the gimbal tift at the same time.
What does the "P, A, F" switch on the Remote Controller do? This switch, called the Flight Mode Switch, allows you to toggle different flight modes: 

### P-mode, or Positioning mode, indicates that both GPS and the Vision Positioning System are active and your Phantom 3 will attempt to stabilize using both. In A-mode, or Attitude mode, the aircraft does not use GPS or the Vision Positioning System. Only the 

### barometer is used for stabilization. The aircraft can still return to the Home Point as long as a sufficient GPS signal is available. F-mode, or Function mode, activates Intelligent Orientation Control (IOC) functionality. Refer to the IOC section in the Appendix of the User Manual. 

### By default, only P-mode may be used. Refer to your user manual for instructions on unlocking the other modes.

What is the Phantom 3 flight time? 

### Flight times will vary depending on environmental conditions and usage patterns, but the Intelligent Flight Battery is designed to provide up to 23 minutes of uninterrupted flight time when fully charged.
How can I restore a video file if the power is turned off during recording? 

### Do not remove the Micro-SD card from the camera. If it has been removed, place it back in the camera. Turn the Phantom 3 on and wait approximately 30 seconds as the video file is restored.
How can I ensure that my pictures and videos will be synehronized to my iOS album? 

### You may need to adjust the settings of your mobile device. Open the Settings menu, select the Privacy tab, select the Photos tab, and then toggle the switch next to the DJI GO app icon. If the GO app has not been granted access to your albums, the photos and videos cannot be synchronized.
What shouid I do to land my Phantom 3 smoothiy as possibie? 

### Hover the aircraft over a flat, level surface. Slowly pull the throttie stick down until the aircraft touches :he 

### ground. T 

### D Why is the discharge time of the battery not zero, even though I have never used it? ~ 

### Every battery is tested prior to being packaged and shipped. This affects the discharge time of a new battery and is the reason that the discharge time is not zero. The battery is safe to use.

Can the mobile device holder be used on the Phantom 2 series Remote Controller? No, it cannot.
How to safeiy operate the aircraft when encountering compass error? 

### A compass error may occur when the aircraft is flying close to strong electric magnetic sources (e.g. power transmission lines). Aircraft Status Indicators blink red and yellow rapidly when a compass error occurs and the DJI GO app will display one of the following messages: • Compass error, calibration required 

### This warning message indicates the aircraft is receiving abnormal compass readings. It is recommended to power off the aircraft and re-calibrate the compass at a different location and then resume the flight. • Compass error, exit P-GPS Mode 

### This warning message indicates that the aircraft is drifting severely. Bring the aircraft to a higher altitude to gain enough GPS satellite locks when this warning message is prompted. The flight controller will automatically adjust the orientation of the aircraft in the midair to mitigate the drifts. The aircraft will switch back to P-GPS mode when the automatic adjustment is completed.

How to troubleshoot aircraft initialization error? 

### If you observe the following symptoms, it indicates the aireraft has failed to initialized: • The.aircraft status indicator display flashing red, yellow and green. Even the aireraft is stationed on the flat surface. • The System Status Bar in the app prompts "Initialization Error". • No resistance drive if feR on the gimbal.
© 2Gi5 DJI. /UI Righ!s Reservcw. 51Phantom3 Professional User Manual 

### Various factors contribute to the aircraft initialization error, try resolve the issue by following the suggestions listed below: 

### • Sensor performance degraded. This may be due to the excessive bias detected from the IMU or the compass reading is interfered. Try restarting and calibrating the IMU and compass to resolve this issue. • Sensor is defective. If the sensors remains unchanged at all time and the problem persist even when the aircraft is restarted, it indicates the sensor is not working normally. Users should return the aircraft to DJI for repairing. 

### • Minor vibration is detected during aircraft initialization. Put the aircraft on the flat surface, power on the aircraft and ensure the aircraft is stationed for more than 5 seconds to resolve the issue. • Serious vibration is detected during aircraft initialization. This instance generally occurs when the aircraft is being initialization on the violent moving surface, for instance, ships that are on the rough sea. Do not attempt to power on the aircraft in this scenario.
