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 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 onboard 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-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.

1 Calibrating the Compass

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.

e • 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.

1.1Calibration Procedures

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

details.

Starting/Stopping the Motors / Flight Test 

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.

2.2 Stopping Motors

There are two methods to stop the motors.

Method 1: When the Phantom has landed, push the throttle down, then conduct CSC. 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]

Figure 50

[2]

Figure 51

Figure 49

O Do not execute CSC during normal flight. This will stop the motors and cause the aircraft to drop without control.

01- • 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 Test

3.1Take off/Landing Procedures

(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.

4 Failsafe Function

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

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

ED 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 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 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 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 mode from different flying statuses will results in different landing processes.

Ready to Fly(non-GPS)— Automatic landing

The Right Control System will keep the aircraft level during descent and landing. It may be drift during the 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.

Low Battery Level Warning Function 

IA\ • 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 hifting vertical obstacles through DJI Phantom Assistant.

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, the motors will fail to start when you execute the

CSC 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 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 Remote Controller 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 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.

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 connection

is 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"

then uncheck the "Auto network switch". You might see a warning that indicates the Internet connection is unstable this

message can be ignored.

02, 3.10 App tips for mobile devices.

a

-- 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 normal functions on the second mobile device.

3.11 How to land the aircraft more smoothly?

Solution: 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 l 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 l 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.
