I NOTICE ) 

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 caut1ous 

when flying in A mode 

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

of P mode, wh1ch will be automatiCally selected by the Phantom 3 depending on GPS signal strength and 

Vision Positioning sensors· 

a) P-GPS: GPS and V1sion Posit10n1ng are both available. and the aircrart is using GPS for positioning. 

b) P-OPTI If GPS is NOT available, the aircrart will use the Vision Positioning System to hover accurately. 

Note that the V1sion 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-ATII: When neither GPS nor Vis1on Positioning is available. the aircraft 1s 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 111 this mode. Ensure you are familiar 

with IOC functions before use. 

If you intend to switcl1 to modes that disable GPS assistance (e.g .. A mode). you are required to accept the 

prompted d isclaimer 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

No-Fly Zones 

[ NOTICE I DJI always stresses safety during flight, and has therefore developed various aids to help users comply with

version to ensure the the following features are fully updated: 

No-Fly Zones 

1) No-Fly Zones include but are not limited to major airports around world, borders between two sovereign 

countries or regions, major cities/regions, etc. 

2) The complete list of No-Fly Zones is listed on the official DJI website at http://www.dji.com/fly-safe/ and is 

subject to periodic updates in line with the latest regulatory requirements without prior notice. 

3) Some No-Fly Zones are comprised of several zones. Each zone features circles of various sizes. The 

aircraft will NOT be able to take off in the inner most zone of the No-Fly Zone, and will descend to the 

specified altitude when it approaches the edge of the inner most zone. Ground station funCtiOnality is 

disabled when the aircraft is within a No-Fly Zone. 

4) Users are NOT able to set up waypoints within No-Fly Zones. 

Altitude Limit
