CFR 409 (a) (2); 14 CFR 91.417 (a) and (b).

Dear Sir or Madam:

Please find the enclosed exemption application filed on behalf of StabilVista LLC, a Virginia

Limited Liability Company. Pursuant to Section 333 of the FAA Modernization and Reform Act

of 2012 (the "Reform Act") and 14 C.F.R. Part 11, StabilVista LLC, operator of two small

Unmanned Aircraft Systems ("UASs"), hereby applies for an exemption from the listed Federal

Aviation Regulations ("FARs") to allow for commercial operation of its UASs. The request is

similar, if not identical to, many previously submitted requests that have received exemption.

This exemption would permit StabilVista LLC to operate the UASs for the purposes of aerial

photography of real estate, event photography and promotion, home inspections, utility

inspection, agricultural mapping, photo telemetry and aerial data collection, and construction site

security, monitoring and mapping.

As described fully below, the requested exemption would permit the operation of the UASs

under controlled conditions. Approval of this exemption would thereby enhance safety and

fulfill the Secretary of Transportation's (the FAA Administrator's) responsibilities to

"...establish requirements for the safe operation of such aircraft systems in the national airspace

system." Reform Act § 333 (c). The details of the operation as well as pertinent information are

contained within this document or provided within the attachments.

Sincerely,

e

This exemption application is expressly submitted to fulfill Congress' goal in passing Section

333 (a) through (c) of the Reform Act. This law directs the Secretary of Transportation to

consider whether certain unmanned aircraft systems may operate safely in the national airspace

2

25315/2/7207739v1
system (NAS) before completion of the rulemaking required under Section 332 of the Reform

Act. In making this determination, the Secretary is required to determine which types of the

UASs do not create a hazard to users of the NAS or the public or pose a threat to national

security in light of the following:

• The UAS's size, weight, speed, and operational capability;

• Operation of the UAS in close proximity to airports and populated areas; and

• Operation of the UAS within visual line of sight of the operator. Reform Act § 333 (a).

Lastly, if the Secretary determines that such vehicles "may operate safely in the national airspace

system, the Secretary shall establish requirements for the safe operation of such aircraft in the

national airspace system." Id. § 333 (c). The Federal Aviation Act expressly grants the FAA the

authority to issue exemptions. This statutory authority by its terms includes exempting civil

aircraft, as the term is defined under § 40101 of the Act, that includes UAS, from the

requirements that all civil aircraft must have a current airworthiness certificate. The

Administrator may grant an exemption from a requirement of a regulation prescribed under

subsection (a) or (b) of this Section or Sections 44702-44716 of this title if the Administrator

finds the exemption in the public interest. 49 U.S.C. § 44701 (~; 14 CFR § 91.203 (a) (1).

The applicant plans to operate two UASs—both DJI Phantom 3 Professional Models—each

weighing a total weight of 1208G or 2.82 lbs. The DJI Phantom 3 Professional User Manual is

attached to this application as Exhibit A, the Safety Guidelines Manual is attached as Exhibit B,

the Quick Start Guide is attached as Exhibit C, and the Flight Battery Manual is attached as

Exhibit D. The applicant will operate the UASs within Visual Line of Sight (VLOS) of the pilot

and/or Visual Observer (VO) and will operate only within the operating parameters as described

in the User Manual. Adherence to the User Manual will "not create a hazard to users of the

national airspace system or the public." Reform Act § 333 (b) (1).

Given the small size and weight of the DJI Phantom 3 Professional and the safety measures

established by StabilVista LLC, the proposed operations will adhere to the Reform Act's safety

requirements. The approval of this application also presents no national security issue. Given

the level of safety surrounding the proposed operations, the significant public benefit, and the

reduction in environmental impact, including reduced emissions and noise, the grant of the

requested exemption is in the public interest. Accordingly, StabilVista LLC respectfully requests

that the FAA grant the exemption with minimum delay.

III. Al1ZC~17A~`"1~ AlVl~ 1+:~UlVALL1~l'1' LL;VL;L UN SArLI Y

StabilVista LLC will adhere to the operating parameters as described in the User Manual in order

25315/2/7207739v1
14 CFR Part 21, Subpart H: Airworthiness Certificates 14 CFR §91.203 (a) (1)

Subpart H, entitled Airworthiness Certificates, establishes the procedural requirements for the

issuance of airworthiness certificates as required by FAR § 91.203 (a) (1). Given the size and

limited operating area associated with the aircrafts to be utilized by the applicant, an exemption

from Part 21 Subpart H meets the requirements of an equivalent level of safety under Part 11 and

Section 333 of the Reform Act. The Federal Aviation Act (49 U.S.C. § 44701 (~) and Section

333 of the Reform Act both authorize the FAA to exempt aircraft from the requirement for an

airworthiness certificate, upon consideration of the size, weight, speed, operational capability,

and proximity to airports and populated areas of the particular UAS. In all cases, an analysis of

these criteria demonstrates that the UAS operated without an airworthiness certificate, in the

restricted environment and under the conditions proposed will be at least as safe, or safer, than a

conventional aircraft operating with an airworthiness certificate without the restrictions and

conditions proposed.

The UASs to be operated hereunder are less than 55 lbs. fully loaded, carry neither a pilot nor

passenger, carry no explosive materials nor flammable liquid fuels, and operate exclusively

within a secured and designated area. Unlike other civil aircraft, operations under this exemption

will be tightly controlled and monitored by the pilot and remain in compliance with local public

safety requirements. These safety enhancements provide a greater degree of safety to the public

and property owners than conventional operations conducted with airworthiness certificates

issued under 14 C.F.R. Part 21, Subpart H. Lastly, application of these same criteria

demonstrates that there is no credible threat to national security posed by the UASs, due to their

size, speed of operation, location of operation, lack of explosive materials or flammable liquid

fuels, and inability to carry a substantial external load.

14 C.F.R. § 45.23 (b). Marking of the Aircraft.

The regulation requires:

When marks include only the Roman capital letter "N" and the registration number is displayed

on limited, restricted or light-sport category. aircraft or experimental or provisionally certificated

aircraft, the operator must also display on that aircraft near each entrance to the cabin, cockpit, or

pilot station, in letters not less than 2 inches nor more than 6 inches high, the words "limited,"

"restricted," "light-sport," "experimental," or "provisional," as applicable.

Even though the UAS will have no airworthiness certificate, an exemption may be needed as the

UAS will have no entrance to the cabin, cockpit or pilot station on which the word

"Experimental" can be placed. Given the size of the UAS, two-inch lettering will be impossible.

l he word "Experimental" will be placed on the iuseiage in cvmpiiance wiin ~ +5.27 ~ j.

The equivalent level of safety will be provided by having each UAS marked on its fuselage as

required by § 45.29 (~ where the pilot, observer and others working with the UAS will see the

identification of the UAS as "Experimental."

6

25315/2/7207739v1
14 C.F.R. § 61.113 (a) and (b): Private Pilot Privileges and Limitations: Pilot in Command.

Pursuant to 14 CFR § 61.113 (a) & (b), no person who holds a private pilot certificate may act as

a pilot in command of an aircraft that is carrying passengers or property for compensation or

hire. An equivalent level of safety can be achieved by current regulations because the applicant's

UASs do not carry any pilots, passengers or property. The risks attendant to the operation of

UASs are far less than the risk levels inherent in the commercial activities outlined in 14 CFR §

61. The limitations set forth in the User Manual will provide an equivalent level of safety for the

operation of the UASs.

14 CFR § 91.7 (a): Civil Aircraft Airworthiness.

The regulation requires that no person may operate a civil aircraft unless it is in airworthy

condition. As there will be no airworthiness certificate issued for the aircraft, should this

exemption be granted, no FAA regulatory standard will exist for determining airworthiness.

Given the size of the aircraft and the requirements contained in the User Manual for maintenance

and use of safety checks prior to each flight, an equivalent level of safety will be provided.

14 CFR § 91.9 (b) (2): Civil Aircraft Flight Manual in the Aircraft.

Section 91.9 (b) (2) provides: No person may operate aU.S.-registered civil aircraft ...(2) For

which an Airplane or Rotorcraft Flight Manual is not required by § 21.5 of this chapter, unless

there is available in the aircraft a current approved Airplane or Rotorcraft Flight Manual,

approved manual material, markings, and placards, or any combination thereof.

The UASs, given their size and configuration have no ability or place to carry such a flight

manual on the aircraft, not only because there is no pilot on board, but because there is no room

or capacity to carry such an item on the aircrafts. The equivalent level of safety will be

maintained by keeping the User Manual at the ground control point where the pilot flying the

UASs will have immediate access to it.

14 CFR § 91.103: Preflight Action.

This regulation requires each pilot in command to take certain actions before flight to insure the

safety of flight. As FAA approved rotorcraft flight manuals will not be provided for the aircraft

an exemption will be needed. The PIC will take all actions as stated in the User Manual and preflight checklist section of the Safety Guidelines Manual, including but not limited to reviewing

weather, flight battery requirements, landing and takeoff distances and aircraft performance data

before initiation of flight.

7

25315/2/7207739v1
14 CFR § 91.109: Flight Instruction.

This section provides that no person may operate a civil aircraft (except a manned free balloon)

that is being used for flight instruction unless that aircraft has fully functioning dual controls.

UASs and remotely piloted aircraft, by their design do not have fully functional dual controls.

Flight control is accomplished through the use of a control box that communicates with the

aircraft via radio communications. The FAA has approved exemptions for flight training without

fully functional dual controls for a number of aircraft and for flight instruction in experimental

aircraft. The equivalent level of safety provided by the fact that neither a pilot nor passengers

will be carried in the aircraft and by the size and speed of the aircraft.

14 CFR § 91.119: Minimum Safety Altitudes.

Section 91.119 establishes safe altitudes for operation of civil aircraft. Section 91.119 (d) allows

helicopters to be operated at less than the minimums prescribed, provided the person operating

the helicopter complies with any route or altitudes prescribed for helicopters by the FAA. As this

exemption is for UASs that are helicopters and the exemption requests authority to operate at

altitudes up to 400 AGL, an exemption may be needed to allow such operations. As set forth

herein, the UASs will never operate at higher than 400 AGL. They will however be operated in

a restricted area with security perimeter, where buildings and people will not be exposed to

operations without their pre-obtained consent.

The equivalent level of safety will be achieved given the size, weight, speed of the UASs as well

as the location where they are operated. No flight will be taken without the permission of the

property owner or local officials. Because of the advance notice to the property owner and

participants in the photography and filming activity, affected individuals will be aware of the

planned flight operations. Compared to flight operations with aircraft or rotorcraft weighing far

more than the maximum 55 lbs. proposed herein and the lack of flammable fuel, any risk

associated with these operations is far less than those presently presented with conventional

aircraft used in photography for real estate and business In addition, the low-altitude operations

of the UASs will ensure separation between these UAS operations and the operations of

conventional aircraft that must comply with Section 91.119.

14 C.F.R. § 91.121 Altimeter Settings.

This regulation requires each person operating an aircraft to maintain cruising altitude by

reference to an altimeter that is set "...to the elevation of the departure airport or an appropriate

altimeter setting available before departure." As the UAS may not have a barometric altimeter,

but insieaCt a liYj aitiiude read out, an exemption may 'be YieeueCi. iii ~i~uivdiEiii iEVei of ~a ciy

will be achieved by the operator, pursuant to the User Manual and pre-flight checklist,

confirming the altitude of the launch site shown on the GPS altitude indicator before flight.

8

25315/2/7207739v1
14 C.F.R. § 91.151 (a): Fuel Requirements for Flight in VFR Conditions.

Section 91.151 (a) prohibits an individual from beginning "a flight in an airplane under VFR

conditions unless (considering wind and forecast weather conditions) there is enough fuel to fly

to the first point of intended landing, and, assuming normal cruising speed — (1) During the day,

to fly after that for at least 30 minutes; or (2) At night, to fly after that for at least 45 minutes."

The battery powering the UAS provides approximately 23 minutes of powered flight. To meet

the 30 minute reserve requirement in 14 CFR § 91.151, UAS flights would be impossible.

The applicant believes that an exemption from 14 CFR § 91.151(a) falls within the scope of prior

exemptions. Operating the UASs, in a controlled area with less than 30 minutes of reserve fuel,

does not engender the type of risks that Section 91.151(a) was intended to alleviate given the size

and speed of the UASs. Additionally, limiting UAS flights would greatly reduce the utility for

which the exemption will be granted.

The applicant believes that an equivalent level of safety can be achieved by limiting flights to 20

minutes or 25% of battery power— whichever happens first. This restriction would be more than

adequate to return the UASs to a planned landing zone from anywhere in its limited operating

area.

14 C.F.R. § 91.203 (a) and (b): Carrying Civil Aircraft Certification and Registration.

The regulation provides in pertinent part:

(a) Except as provided in § 91.715, no person may operate a civil aircraft unless it has within it

the following:

(1) An appropriate and current airworthiness certificate... .

(b) No person may operate a civil aircraft unless the airworthiness certificate required by

paragraph (a) of this section or a special flight authorization issued under §91.715 is displayed at

the cabin or .cockpit entrance so that it is legible to passengers or crew.

Each UAS fully loaded weighs no more than 55 lbs. and is operated without an onboard pilot. As

such, there is no ability or place to carry certification and registration documents or to display

them on the UASs.

An equivalent level of safety will be achieved by keeping these documents at the ground control

point where the pilot flying the UASs will have immediate access to them, to the extent they are

applicable to the UAS.

9

25315/2/7207739v1
14 C.F.R. §§ 91.405 (a); 407 (a) (1); 409 (a) (2); 417(a) & (b): Maintenance Inspections.

These regulations require that an aircraft operator or owner "shall have that aircraft inspected as

prescribed in subpart E of this part and shall between required inspections, except as provided in

paragraph (c) of this section, have discrepancies repaired as prescribed in part 43 of this

chapter...," and others shall inspect or maintain the aircraft in compliance with Part 43.

Given that these section and Part 43 apply only to aircraft with an airworthiness certificate, these

sections will not apply to the applicant. Maintenance will be accomplished by the operator

pursuant to the flight manuals. An equivalent level of safety will be achieved because the UASs

are very limited in size and will carry a small payload and operate only in restricted areas for a

limited period of time. If mechanical issues arise the UASs can land immediately and will be

operating from no higher than 400 feet AGL. The operator will ensure that the UASs are in

working order prior to initiating flight, perform required maintenance, and keep a log of any

maintenance performed. Moreover, the operator is the person most familiar with the aircraft and

best suited to maintain the aircraft in an airworthy condition to provide the equivalent level of

safety.

An equivalent level of safety will be achieved because maintenance and inspections will be

performed in accordance with the DJI Phantom 3 Professional User Manual. As provided in the

manual, the operator will ensure that the UAS is in working order prior to initiating flight and

perform required maintenance needed.

IV. PRIVACY

As set forth in the limitations and conditions in this application, all flights will occur only on

private property or within and over property with prior approval granted by the property owner.

In addition, all photos and videos will be sanitized before distribution to ensure that all signage,

vehicle license plates, and inadvertant photographing of the non-participating public have been

removed. All flights will be reevaluated, re-planned, or terminated if public concerns are voiced

and evident to the pilot. Only individuals providing consent or participating will be

photographed.

V. CONCLUSION

Given the satisfaction of criteria provided in Section 333 of the Reform Act of 2012— size,

weight, speed, operating capabilities, proximity to airports and populated areas, operation within

the visual line of sight, and national security—more than adequate justification exists for grant of

the T'eCjUeSteCl eXerilptlOri a110W1ri~ i11e i1pp11Cd1"1"L `l0 ~tl~;d~~ iil GUiIii17Ei'Ciai u~iciaiiG~'i Gi iii vf~i~

System, and the intelligent Flight Battery
Aircraft

Flight Conirotter

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

mode. Safsty modes include Failsafe and Return-to-Home. ?hese features ensure the safe return of your

aircraft if the control signal fs Iost. The flight controller car also save critical slight data from each flight

to the on-board storage device. The new flight controller also provides increased stability and a new air

braking feature.

Flight NtaQ~

Three flight modes are available, The details of each flight mode are found below:

P-mode (Positioning) : P-mode works best when GPS signal is strong. There are three different states

w

of P-mode, which will be automatically selectea by the Phantom 3 Professional depending on signal --

strength of GPS and Vision Positioning sensors

P-GPS: GPS and Visior 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 Sysiem are not used for stabilization. The aircraft only uses

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

the Home ?Dint was recorded successfully.

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

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

:Q; Use the flight Controller mode svWto change the flight mode of the aircraft, refer to the "Flight

Mode Switch" on Page 26 for more information.

The Reium-to-Home (RTH) function brings the aircraft back to the last recorded Home Point. There are

three types of RTH procedures: Smart RTH, Love Battery RTH, and Failsafe RTH. This section describes

these three scenarios in detail.

- _-_

If a strong GPS signal was acquired before takeoff; the Home Point

is the location from which the aircraft was launched. The GP5 signal

Home Point ~,~~I! strength is indicated by the GPS icon (~,iiii ). The aircraft status

indicator will blink rapidly when the home point is recorded.

JtI78R R~

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

tap the RTH button it 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 wrrtrof sticks to control the aircraft's position to avoid a collision during the Smart

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

button again to terminate the procedure and regain fui! control of the aircraft.

Low Bakery R't1-i

Tne low battery level failsafe is triggered when the DJI intelligent Flight Battery is depleted to a poini that

may affec4 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 ne action is taken after aten-second countdown. The

user can cancel the RTH procedure by pressing the RTH button on the remote controller. The thresholgs

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 level can only support the aircraft long enough

to descend from its current attitude. The user can still use the remote controller to alter the aircraft's D

3. Turn on the aircraft. The aircraf stah~s indicator will flash green two times, v✓hich indicates the Vision Positioning system is ready. Gently push the throttle up to lift off and the aircraft will

hover in place.

0 The performance of your Vision Positioning System is affected by the surface over which ii is

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

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

suboptimal environments. The aircraft will switch from P-mode to A-mode automatically if neither

GPS nor Vision Positioning System are available. Operate the aircraft with greai 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.

• Flying at high speeds(over 8 mIs at 2 meters or over 4 m/s at 1 meter}.

• Flying over water or transparent surfaces.

Flying over moving surfaces or objects.

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

• Flying over extremely dark (lux < 10} or bright (lux > 10G,000) surfaces.

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

• Flying over surfaces without clear patterns or texture.

Qnce pre-flight preparation is complete; it is recommended that you use the flight simulator in the DJI Pilot

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

area.

FligFtt Enviror~vnent Requirements

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

snow, rain and fog.

2. Only fly in open areas. Tall structures and Iargz metal structures may afrect the accuracy of the orr

board compass and G?S system.

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

4. Minimize interference by avoiding areas with high Ieveis of electromagnetism. including base 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, 685 feet (6000 meters) above sea

-n level, as the performance of the battery and aircraft may be affected.

s 6. The Phantom 3 Professional cannot operate within the polar areas.

FIIgFiI LIR#1IS &f1C( h10-~iy ZO~i~S

All unmanned aerial 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 default,

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

limits, and No-=fy 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

altitude from exceeding '£tit0 feet {500 m) .

Maximum flight altitude &Radius Limits

Maximum flight al?itude and radius limits may be changed in the DJI Pilot apo. Be aware that the

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

No-Fly Zones

All No-Fly Zones are listed on the DJI official website at http://fiysafe.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 altitudes. Restricted Areas include border tines 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 restricted 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 No-Fly Zones, a warning message will appear

IM?ORTANT; Always calibrate the compass in every new flight location. The compass is very sensitive

to electromagnetic interference, which can produce abnormal compass data and lead to poor flight

performance or flight failure. F~egular calibration is required for optimal performance.

• Do not calibrate your compass where there is any possibility of strong magnetic interference.

Sources of potential interference include magnetite, parking structures, and subterranean

-" metaE structures

? • Do not carry ferromagnetic materials with you during calibration such as keys or cellular

phones.

- Do not calibrate indirect proximity to large metal objects.

• DO NOT calibrate indoors.

Calibration Procedures

Choose an open area to carry out the following procedures.

1. Ensure that the compass is calibrated. if you did not calibrate the compass as part of your .pre-flight

preparations, or if you have moved to a new location since the last calibration, tap the Aircraft Status

Bar in the app and select "Calibrate°, then follow the on-screen instructions.

P mode is preferred for most flying scenarios. Users can switch to A mode vihere and when P mode is

unavailable. Be aware that some features are NOT available for A mode, and therefore be EXTRA cautious

when flying in A mode.

1) F mode (Positioning): P mode works best vvhen the GPS signal is strong. There are three different states

of P mode: which will be automatically selecied by the Phantom 3 depending on GPS signal strength and

Vision Positioning s°nsors:

a) P-G?S: GPS and Vision Positioning are both: available; and the aircraft is using G°S fog positioning.

b) P-OPTI: if GPS is NOT available, the aircraft wii; use the Vision Positioning System to hover accurately.

Note that the Vision Positioning System may NOT work properly when the Phantom 3 is flying over

water, over surfaces withoui a clear pattern, or ir, a low light environment.

c) P-ATTi: When neither GPS nor Vision Positioning is available, the aircraft is using oNy its barometer for

positioning. so only altitude is controlled.

2} A mode (Attiiude): The GPS and Vision Positioning System are NOT used for positioning. The aircraft only

uses its barometer to maintain Gltitude. If it is stil receiving a GPS signal, the aircraft can automatically

return home if the Remote Controller signa~ is Iost and i` the Home Point has peen reco!deo successfully.

3) F mode (Functionj: irrteliige~i Orientafion Control (IOGj is aciivaied in this mode. Ensure you are familiar

• Environmental Considerations:

1. Do not fly it severe weather contlRions. This includes high winds (speeds of 22 mph or 7 Q m!s or more), snow, rain, antl fog.

2. Orly fly in open areas. Tali bu~idings and st~l shuctures may affect the accuracy of the on-board compass and GPS signal.

3. A~aoid obstacles, crowds, h gh-voitac~e power lines, trees, and bodies of water.

4. Minimize electromagnetic interterence by avoiding areas m~ith high levels of eiectromagnstism, including mobile Ghone base stations,

radio transmission towers, or Wi-Fi hotsp; ts.

5. Aircraft and battery performance are subject to environmental factors such as air density antl temper2ture. Be very carefu wnsn

{lying 19,000 feet (6 kmj or more above sea 1=vet, as battery end airoreft pertormance may not be at peak efficiency.

6. The Phantom 3 Professional cannot operate in P Mode or use GPS ai paar Iatitudes. Onlg ATfI Mode and the Vision Positioning

sysierr, will be operational.

• P Mode:

in this mode, me Phantom 3 Professional can use GPS and the Vision

?osRioning system, allowing ii to hover accurately in position indoors

signal is lost.

To enable P Mode, toggle the Flight Mode Switch

to the F position.

There are three states in P mode:

P-GPS= GPS works best when ouitloorsantl in a wide open area. Your

Phantom 3 Professional uses GPS to hover in place when there is a

strong GPS signal.

P-OPTL• It GPS is not available, the aircraft can use the Vsio^~ Posttionino

sy~ern to hover accuratEy.

P-Attk NeiYner GPS no. the Visiun Positioning system are available.

The aircraft will only use its barometer for altitude ano other on-board

sensors for 2itdude stabilization.

Note that the Vision Positioning system may nog work properly evhen

the Phzntom 3 Pwfessionai is flying over water, over surfaces without

a clear pattern, or in a low-fight environment,
