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')()()()()()(' represents the last 61etters or numbers of the MAC address for the Range Extender. 

This can be renamed in the DJI VISION App.

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 an flights are carried out in a suitable 

location. 

Right Environment Requirements 

( 1) Do not use the aircraft in severe weather 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 on board compass. 

(3) Keep the Phantom away from obstacles, crowds, high voltage 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 Controller, 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) Anti-<lrop kits have been mounted correctly. 

(6) Camera lens cap has been removed. 

(7) Micro-SO 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. 

!1 Calibrating the Compc::..:. a:..:s:..:s'--------------------------.J 

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 tught 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 structures, 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. 

1.1 Calibration Procedures 

Choose an open space to carry out the following procedures. Watch the Phantom 2 Vision+ quick start video for more 

details.

:J:j: If compass calibration is needed before Wght, 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 ffight. 

(3) Mechanical structure of the Phantom has changed, i.e. changed mounting position ol the compass. 

(4) Severe drifting occurs in ffight, 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. 

2.2 Stopping Motors 

There are two methods to stop the motors. 

Figure 49 

Method 1: When the Phantom has landed, push the throttle down, then conduct esc. Motors will stop immediately. 

Release both sticks once motors stop. 

Method 2: When the aircraft has landed, push the throttle down and hold. Motors will stop after 3 seconds. 

[1] [2] 

Figure 50 Figure 51 

0 Do not execute esc during normal ffight. This will stop the motors and cause the aircraft to drop without control. 

:J:j: • Conduct the esc 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. 

lifught Test 

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 Right Battery. 

(3) Launch the OJI 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~ has initialized and is Ready to Fly. If~ flashes yellow, 

it is in Ready to Fly (non-GPS) mode and will require more careful flight. Execute the esc 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 OJI 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 esc 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. 
Flight 

& • When the Rear LED Right Indicator blinks yellow rapidly during flight, the aircraft has entered Failsafe mocfe. 

Refer to Failsafe Function(Page 27) for details. 

• A low battery level warning is indicated by the Rear LED Right 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 fUght information:www.dji.com/phantom2visionplus/lraining. 

• 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) Worl< through the check list before each Wght. 

(2) Set the gimbal working mocfe to Stabilized. 

(3) Aim to shoot when flying in Ready toRy only. 

( 4) Atways 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 Wght routes and scenes. 

(7) Push the sticks gently to make aircraft movements stable and smooth. 

14 Failsafe Function 

The Phantom will enter Failsafe mocfe when its connection to the Remote Controller is lost. The Right Control System will 

automatically control the aircraft to return to home and land to prevent injury or damage. 

EC) Home Point: When the Phantom enters 'Ready to Ay' from the 'Ready to Fly status (non-GPS)'. the GPS 

coordinates will be recorded and set as the home point 

• When Remote Controller 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 mght indicators bUnk 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 OJI 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 motion and require a Home point that is different 

from the takeoff point. 

4.1 When Will Failsafe Activate? 

( 1) The Remote Controller is powered off. 

(2) The Phantom has flown out of effective remote controller range. 

(3) The signal between the Remote Controller and the Phantom has been blocked. 

(4) There is interference causing a signal problem with the Remote Controller. 

4.2 Failsafe Procedure 

Initiating the Failsafe mocfe from different flying statuses will results in different landing processes. 

Ready to Fly(non-GPS)- Automatic landing 

The Right Control System \WI keep the aircraft iellel during descell and lardilg. It may be drift during the desce'1t and lard'ng process.

& ·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 OJI Phantom Assistant. 

Quickly ffipping 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.

13 TroubleshootinQ.....,("-F:...:A-=0"-) ------------------------' 

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, the motors will fail to start when you execute the 

esc and the Phantom will not take off. The below are some possible fixes for this. 

(1) One of the Remote Controller's stick positions (except the throttle stick) is nol 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 cycflng is required. 

c l Re-attempt Remote Controller calibration in Assistant. 

If the above solutions do not solve your issue, please send your Remote Controller to OJI 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-SO 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 both the camera and Range Extender are powered on and the power switch of the 

camera is switched to Wt-R 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 Wt-R connection status of the mobile device. The mobile device may be connecting 

to other Wt-R 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.

3.9 Some Android devices have a problem connecting to the Phantom 2 Vision+ Wi-R Extender. 

Solution: Some Android devices do not allow for both a W~R connection and a mobile data connection at the same time. 

When trying to connect to the Phantom 2 Vision+ w~R netwo<k. most devices will check whether an Internet connection 

has a certain W~R setting enabled, e.g. Auto netwo<k switch Of Test fOf Internet connection. If no Internet connection 

is found because the Phantom 2 Vision+ creates a non-routable connection it will drop the Phantom 2 Vision+ WtR 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-> Wt-R. and then tap the "Menu· button. Select "Advanced" 

then uncheck the ·Auto netwo<k switch". You might see a warning that indicates the Internet connection is unstable this 

message can be ignored. 

3.1 0 App tips for mobile devices. 

Solution: If using the App on multiple mobile devices turn off the App on the first mobile device then turn it on the second 

one to ensure nOfmal functions on the second mobile device. 

3.11 How to land the aircraft more smoothly? 

Solution: Rrst pull the throttle stick position down to lower than 5%. then execute the esc 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 perfOfmed 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 fOf 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 aut0fn8tically.
