Aircraft 

The Phantom 3 Advanced's flight controller features several important upgrades, including a new flight 

niode. Safety modes include Failsafe and Return-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. 

FllghtiVlQde 

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 of ° w 

P-mode, which will be automatically selected by the Phantom 3 Advanced depending on signal streng[h -- 

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 stabilization. The aircraft only uses 

its barometer. The aircraft can still automatically return to the home point it the control signal is lost and 

the Home Point was recorded successfully. 

F-mode (Function): Intelligent Onentation Control (IOC) is activated in this mode. For more infonnation 

about IOC, refer to the IOC section in the Appendix. 

Use the Right Controiler mode switch to change the flight mode of the aircraft, refer to the"Flight 

Mode Switch" on Page 26for more information. 

The Phantom 3 Advanced has Front LEDs and Aircraft Status Indicators. The positions of these LEDs are 

shown in the fiqure below: 

Franl LED 

Aircraft SraNS Indicator 

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

The Return-to-Heme (RTH) function bdngs the aircra8 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. 

If a strong GPS signai was acquired before takeoff, the Home Point 

is the location from which the aircraft was launched. The GPS signal 

Home Point Qtolll strength is indicated by ihe GPS icon ( hntll ). The aircraft status 

indirator will blink rapidly when the home point is recorded. 

. ....__..._ 

Sroatt RTH 

Use the RTH button on the remote controller (refer to "RTH button" on page 26 for more information) or 

tap ihe RTH button in the DJI Pilot 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 controi sticks to control the aircraft's position to avoid a coliision during the Smart 

RTH process. Press and hold the Smart RTH button once to start the process, and press the Smart RTH 

buflon again to terminate the procedure and regain full control of the aircraft.

`Ldw.Battery RTH 

The low battery level failsafe is triggered when the DJI Intelligent Flight Battery is depleted to a point that 

may affect the safe return of the aircraft. Users are advised to return home or land the aircraft immediately 

when prompted. The DJI Pilot 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 thresholds 

for these warnings are automatically determined based on the aircraft's current altitude and distance from 

the Home Point. 

The aircraft will land automatically if the current battery levei can only support the aircraft long enough 

to descend from its current altitude. The user can still use the remote controller to aiter the aircraft's 

orientation during the landing process. 

The Battery Level Indicator is displayed in the DJI Pilot app, and is described below:

A. The aircraft cannot avoid obstruction during the Failsafe RTH, therefore, f[ is important to set an 

suitable Failsafe altitude before each flight. Launch the DJI Pilot app and enter "Camera" and 

select "MODE> Advanced Settings> Failsafe mode" to set the Failsafe aititude. 

• The aircraft will stop its ascent and return to the Home Point immediately if the throttle stick is 

moved during the Failsafe RTH procedure. 

The DJI Vision Positioning System uses ultrasound and image data to help the aircraft maintain its current 

position. With the help of Vision Positioning, your Phantom 3 Advanced can hover in place more precisely 

and fly indoors or in other environments where a GPS signal is not available. The main components of the 

Vision Positioning System are located on the bottom of your Phantom 3 Advanced; they include [2] two 

ultrasonic sensors and [1j one monocular camera.

Using Vision Positioning 

Vision Positioning is activated automatically when the Phantom 3 Advanced is turned on. No 

further action is required. Vision Positioning is typically used in indoor environments, where GPS 

is unavailable. Using the sensors that are built into the Vision Positioning system, the Phantom 3 

Professional can hover precisely even without GPS.

Follow the steps below to use Vision Positioning: e p 

1. ToggletheflightmodeswitchtoP-mode. ` 

2. Place the aircraft on a flat surface. Note lhat the Vision Positioning system cannot work 

properly on surfaces without clear pattern varialions. 

3. Turn on the aircraft. The aircraft status indicator will fiash green two times, which indicates the Vision 

Positioning system is ready. Gently push the throttle up to lift off and the aircraft will hover in place. 

~ The performance of your Vision Positioning System is affected by the surface over which it is 

flying. The ullrasonic sensors may not be able to accurately measure distances when operating 

above sound-absorbing materiais. In addition, the camera may not function correctly in 

suboptimai environments. The aircmft will switch from P-mode to A-mode automatically if neither 

GPS nor Vision Positioning System are available. Operate the aircraft with great caution in the 

following situations: 

• Flying over monochrome surfaces (e.g. pure black, pure white, pure red, pure green). 

• Flying over a highly reflective surfaces. 

• Hying at high speeds(over 8 nVs at 2 meters or over 4 m/s at 1 meter). 

• Flyingoverwaterortransparentsurfaces.

• Flying in an area where the lighting changes frequently or drastically. 

, • Flying over exlremely dark (lux < 10) or bright (lux > 100,000) surfaces. 

• Flying over surfaces that can absorb sound waves (e.g. thick carpet). 

• Flying over surfaces without clear patterns or texture. 

• Hying over surfaces with identical repeating patterns or textures (e.g. tiles with the same design). 

• Flying over inciined surfaces that will deflect sound waves away from the aircraft. 

• Keep the sensors clean at all times. Dirt or other debris may adversely affect the effectiveness 

of the sensors. 

• Vision Positioning is only effective when the aircraft is at altitudes of 0.3 to 3 meters. 

• The Vision Positioning System may not function properlywhen the aircraft is flying overwater. 

• The Vision Positioning System may not be able to recognize paHern on the ground in low light 

conditions (less than 100 lux). 

• Do not use other ultrasonic devices with frequency of 40 KHz when Vision Positioning system is 

in operafion. 

• Vision Positioning System may not be able to stabilize the aircraft when flying close to the 

ground (below 0.5 meters) at fast speeds..

Flight 

Once pre-flight preparation is complete, it is recommended that you use the fiight simulator in the DJI Pilot 

app to hone your flight skills and practice flying sa(ely. Ensure that all flights are carried out in an open 

area. 

1. Do not use the aircraft in severe weather conditions. These include wind speeds exceeding 10 rqls , 

snow, rain and fog. 

2. Only fly in open areas. Tail structures and large metal structures may affect the accuracy of the onboard compass and GPS system. 

3. Avoid obstacles, crowds, high voltage power lines, trees, and bodies of water. 

4. Minimize interference by avoiding areas with high levels of electromagnetism, including hase stations 

and radio transmission towers. 

5. Aircraft and battery performance is subject to environmental factors such as air density and 

..., ,..._ temperature.Be very careful when flying at altitudes greater than 19, 665 feet (6000 meters) above sea 

m level, as the perfonnance of the battery and aircra8 may be affected. 

~ 6. The Phantom 3 Advanced cannot operate within the polar areas. 

AII unmanned aeriai vehicle (UAV) operators should abide by all regulations set forth by government and 

regulatory agencies including the ICAO and the FAA. For safety reasons, flights are limited by defauit, 

which helps users operate this product safely and legally. Flight limitations include height limits, distance 

limits, and No-Piy Zones. 

When operating in P-mode, height limits, distance limits, and No-Fly Zones function concurrently to 

manage flight safety. In A-mode, only height limits are in effect, which by default prevent the aircraft 

altHude from exceeding 1640 feet (500 m) . 

Maximum flight aititude & Radius Limits 

Maximum flight altitude and radius limits may be changed in the DJI Pilot app. Be aware that the 

maximum flight altitude cannot exceed 1640 feet (500 meters). In accordance with these settings, your 

Phantom 3 Advanced will fiy in a restricted cylinder, as shown below:

No-Fiy Zones 

AII No-Fly Zones are listed on the DJI officiai website at http:!/flysafe.dji.com/no-fly. No-Fly Zones are 

divided into Airports and Restricted Areas. Airports include major airports and flying fields where manned 

aircraft operate at low aititudes. Restricted Areas include border lines between countries or sensitive 

institute. The details of the No-Fly Zones are explained as follow: 

Airport 

(1) Airport No-Fly Zone are comprised of Take-off Restricted zones and Restricted Altitude Zones. Each 

zone features circles of various sizes. 

(2) R1 miles (value of the R1 depends on the size and shape of the airport) around the airport is a Takeoff reslricted zone, inside of which take off is prevented. 

(3) From R1 mile to R1 + 1 mile around the airport the flight altitude is limited to a 15 degree inclination. 

Starting at 65 feet (20 meters) from the edge of airport and radiating outward. The flight altitude is 

limited to 1640 feet (500 meters) at R1+1 mile 

(4) When the aircraft enters within 320 feet (100 meters) of Noo-Hy Zones, a warning message will appear 

on the DJI Pilot app.

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 leR control stick controis the throttle and orientation of the aircraR These 

controls can be changed to Mode 1 or set to a customized configuration in the DJI Pilot app. This is only 

recommended for advanced users. 

Can I use a Phantom 2 Remote Controller with the Phantom 3? 

No. The Phantom 2 Remote Controlier 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 2lntelllgent Flight Battery with the Phantom 3? 

y No. The Phantom 3 uses a newly designed intelligent Flight Battery with greater power. The Phantom 3 has 

p a 4 cell battery with a capacity of 4480 mAh and a voltage of 15.2 V. 

My Phantom 3 does not turn oH right away, is something wrong? 

This is normal. After you attempt to power off the Intelligent Plight Battery, it may remain on for a few 

seconds as any video data is saved to the Micro SD card. This heips prevent your data from being lost or 

corrupted. 

Do I have to buy the Remote Controller separately?

that is aiready 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 tilt at the same 

ime. 

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 aireraft can still retmn to the Home Point as long as a sufficient GPS 

signal is availabie. 

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-motle may be used. Refer to your user manuai for instructions on unlocking the other 

modes.

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 safely operate the aircraft when encountering compass error? 

A compass error may occur when the aircraft is fiying ciose 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 Pilot 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.
