# Flight Once pre-flight preparation is complete, it is recommended to carry out the tasks in the Phantom Pilot Training Guide to prepare for more complex flight maneuvers and learn to fly safely. Ensure that all flights are carried out in a suitable location. 

### Flight Environment Requirements (1) Do not use the aircraft in severe wealher conditions. These include wind speed exceeding category 4, snow, rain and smog. 

### (2) Fly in open fields as high buildings or steel structures may affect the accuracy of the onboard compass. (3) Keep the Phantom away from obstacles, crowds, high vollage power lines, trees or bodies of water when in flight. (4) Reduce the chance of electromagnetic interference by not flying in areas with high levels of electromagnetism, including base stations or radio transmission towers. (5) The Phantom cannot operate within the polar areas. (6) Do not fly the aircraft within no-fly zones specified by local laws and regulations. 

### Preflight Checklist (1) Remote Control, smart battery, Range Extender and smartphone are fully charged. (2) Propellers are mounted correctly. (3) Gimbal clamp has been removed. (4) Damping absorbers are in good condition, not broken or worn. (5) Anli-drop kits have been mounted correctly. (6) Camera lens cap has been removed. (7) Micro-SD card has been inserted if necessary. (8) Gimbal is functioning as normal. (9) Motors can start and are functioning as normal. (10) DJI VISION App can connect to the camera.

### IMPORTANT: Make sure to calibrate the compass in every new flight location. The compass is very sensitive to electromagnetic interference, which can cause abnormal compass data leading to poor flight performance or even flight failure. Regular calibration is required for optimum performance. 0• DO NOT calibrate your compass where there is a chance of strong magnetic interference, such as magnetite, parking slruclures, and steel reinforcements underground. • DO NOT carry ferromagnetic materials with you during calibration such as keys or cellular phones. • DO NOT calibrate beside massive metal objects. 

### 1.1Calibration Procedures Choose an open space to carry out the following procedures. Watch the Phantom 2 Vision+ quick start video for more 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. (7) Push the sticks gently to make aircraft movements stable and smooth. I

### [~ ] Home Point: When the Phantom enters 'Ready to Fly' from the 'Ready to Fly status (non-GPS)', the GPS ~ ° coordinates will be recorded and set as the home point. ° • When Remote Control signal is lost, the aircraft will return to the recorded home point coordinates and land. 

### • Home point coordinates are used to calculate the horizontal distance of the aircraft (shown as "Distance" on the GUI of the DJI VISION App). • After successfully record the home point, rear LED flight indicators blink fast green. Dynamic Home Point: The Home point will be reset to position of the mobile device at specific time intervals. 

### • Enable dynamic home point in DJI Vision app or Phantom 2 Assistant. • Dynamic home point is only available to the GPS-enabled mobile device. Turn on GPS and data service to obtain higher accuracy of the mobile device position. • Dynamic home point is useful in situations when you are in moUon and require a Home point that is different from the takeoff point. 

### 4.1 When Will Failsafe Activate? (1) The Remote Control is powered off. (2) The Phantom has flown out of effective remote control range. (3) The signal between the Remote Control and the Phantom has been blocked. (4) There is interference causing a signal problem with the Remote Control. 

### 4.2 Failsafe Procedure Initiating the Failsafe mode from different flying slatuses will results in different landing processes. Ready to Fly(non-GPS) —Automatic landing The Right Control System wll keep the aircraft level during descent and landing. It may be drift during tfle descent and landing process. Ready to Fly— Automatic go home and land 

### The Flight Control System will automatically control the aircraft to fly back to the home point and land. 1 Record Home Point

## ou r es ootin9;(FAQ)? 

### 3.1 How to solve large margin(s) mid

- 

### point error? If Ihe Remote Control stick(s) mid-point margin of error is too big, the motors will fail to start when you execute the CSC and the Phantom will not take off. The below are some possible f ixes for this. (1) One of the Remote Control's stick positions (except the throttle stick) is not centered when powering on the Phantom 2 Vision+. Solution: Place all Remote Control slicks al lheir mid-point positions and then power cycle the Phantom 2 Vision+ to re-record the mid-point. (2) The Remote Control sticks have been trimmed, leading to a deviation in the mid-point position. Solution: Use Assistant to perform a Remote Control calibration. a) Connect to Assislant, tap Basic -> RC -> Command Sticks Calibration and push all Remote Control 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 Control calibration in Assistant. If the above solutions do not solve your issue, please send your Remote Control to DJI Customer service for repair. 

### 3.2 How to restore a video file if power is turned off during a recording session? Solution: Keep or place the Micro-SD card back into the camera. Power cycle the camera and wait about 30 seconds for the video file to be restored. 

### 3.3 Failure to acquire the SSID. Solution: Double check whether bolh lhe camera and Range Extender are powered on and the power switch of the camera is switched to "W-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 Control 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 108060 video files.

© 2014 DJI PJI Rights Reserved. 49Appendix 

### 3.7 iOS Albums fail to synchronize. Solution: Reset the settings of your mobile device as illustrated below. Enable the Settings -> Private -> Photos -> DJI VISION. Otherwise Albums will fail to synchronize with your mobile device.

### 3.8 Failure to share. Solution: Make sure your mobile device has access to the Internet. 

### 3.9 Some Android devices have a problem connecting to the Phantom 2 Vision+ Wi

- 

### Fi Extender. Solution: Some Android devices do not allow for both a Wi-Fi connection and a mobile data connection at the same time. When trying to connect to the Phantom 2 Vision+ Wi-Fi network, most devices will check whether an Internet connection has a certain Wi-Fi setting enabled, e.g. Auto network switch or Test for Internet connection. If no Internet connectionIs found because the Phantom 2 Vision+ creates a non-routable connection it will drop the Phantom 2 Vision+ WiFi network connection and scan for the next available connection. Example: For the Samsung Note 3, carry out the following procedures to solve this issue. Tap Settings -> Wi-Fi, and then tap the "Menu" button. Select "Advanced" 

# i then uncheck the "Auto network switch°. You might see a warning that indicates the Internet connection is unstable this message can be ignored. D a 

# ~ 3.10 App tips for mobile devices.
9 X 7 Solution: If using the App on multlple mobile devices turn off the App on the first mobile device then turn it on the second one to ensure normal functions on the second mobile device. 

### 3.11 How to land the aircraft more smoothly? Solulion: First pull the throttle stick position down to lower than 5%, then execute the CSC command to stop the motors. 

### 3.12 Why is the discharge time of a battery not zero when unused? Solution: A battery aging test is performed prior to delivery which affects the discharge time of the new battery. This is why the discharge time of a new battery is not zero. The battery is okay to use. 

## 3.13 Do I need extra hardware to utilize ground station? Solution: No extra hardware is required. 

## 3.14 Does ground station support caching map data offline? Solution: Yes, user can cache map data in ground station for future use. 

### 3.15 What if I accidently exit DJI Vision App in ground station mode? If DJI Vision App is closed when aircraft is executing flight mission, aircraft continues with the remaining flight mission. If DJI Vision App is closed and failed to re-connect with aircraft within 1 minute, aircraft returns home point automatically.
