This section describes safe lligl1t 

practices and flight restrictions. 
1. Do not use !he aircr<lft in ·severe weather conditions. TI1ess inclucie vAnd spe.eds exceeding 10 rrvs , 

snow, rain and fog. 

2. Only fly in open areas. Tall structures and large molal structures may alfect the accuracy of the ontYJmd compass and GPS system. 

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

4. Minimi7.e interterence IJY avoiding areas with high levels of clcctromagnolism, incruc!ing base stutions 

and radio towers. 

5. Aircraft ami ballery performance is subject to errvirorunental factors such as air density and 

temperature.Ae very careful when flying at gre{IW than 19. G% feet (OOO'J meters) above sou 

:!! tcvol, as the performance of t11e battery anct aircraft may bo affcctod. 

<o· 6. The Phantom 3 P(olessional cannot operute within the polar areas. 

!Flight Limits an€1 N0·Fiy Zones 

All unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) operators should abide by all r<;gulatiuns set forth lly government and 

regulatory ag!mdes inchrdiny the ICAO and the FAA For· safety reasons, flights are limited by default, 

which helps users operate this product S!lfely and legally. Flight limitations include heighi limits, distance 

limits, and No-Fly Zones. 

When operating in P-nrude, heiyhl lirnils, distance lirnits, and No-rly Zones function concurrently to 

manage ffil]ht safety. In A-mode, only height limits are in P-ffect, which by default prevent tho aircraft 

altitude from exceeding 1640 feet (ti!XJ m} . 

Maximum flight altitude & Radius Limits 

Maximum !light altitude and radius lirnits fJlay be clrarrged in the 0.11 Pilot app. Be aware that the 

maximum fli(Jhl allitude c<lnnot exr.e.P.d 1640 feet (S<Xl m!;lterf.), In -accorciance with tiJesc settings, your
