### 27 When the Rear LED Flight Indicator blinks yellow rapidly during flight, the aircraft has entered Failsafe mode. Refer to Failsafe Function(Page 27) for details. A low battery level warning is indicated by the Rear LED Flight 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 flight information:www.dji. com/phantom2visionplus/training. 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) 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 fo rmat 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.
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 retur n to the recorded home point coordinates and land. Home point coordinates are used to calculate the horizontal di stance of the aircraft (shown as “Distance” on the GUI of the DJI VISION App). After successfully record the home point, rear LED flight indic ators 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 be en 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 Flight Control System will keep the aircraft level during d escent and landing. It may be drift during the descent and land ing process. Ready to Fly

- Automatic go home and land The Flight Control System will automatically control the aircra ft to fly back to the home point and land.Failsafe Function

Figure 55 Ready to Fly To ensure the aircraft successful return to home after Failsaf e 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 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 indicator s will blink green rapidly when successful.

How to regain control When the S1 switch is switched to Position-1, toggle the S1 switch to any other position once to regain control. If the Remote Controller signal is recovered, control is returned to the pilot. Regain control as soon as signal is recovered.



### 5 Low Battery Level Warning Function If the DJI smart battery is depleted to a point that may affect the safe return of the aircraft, the low battery level warning notifies users to take action. Users are advised to land the aircraft immediately when they observe these warnings. The thresholds for these warnings are automatically determined based on the current aircraft altitude and its distance from the Home point. Details of the battery level warning are listed below: RC Signal Lost RC Signal Lost© 2015 DJI. All Rights Reserved.

### 7.2 Using Ground Station Step 1 Launching Ground Station: Enable ground station in the Settings section of the DJI Vision app. A disclaimer for Ground Station will appear. Read this thoroughly before using Ground Station.

Ensure your mobile device has access to the Internet. Due to the map data required, Wi-Fi connection is recommended. Internet access is required to cache the ground station map, if Wi-Fi is unavailable, mobile data service is required. Open the DJI Vision app camera GUI and swipe left to launch ground station(see Figure 101). DJI Vision app cannot connect to your aircraft while it is accessing the Internet. Hence, you may prompt with the warning message such as “Connection to Phantom Failed”. This message will not appear when your aircraft is re-connected to DJI Vision app. Map data of your current location will load. You can then drag the map to cache nearby areas for future use(see Figure 102).

Step 2 Setting a Waypoint: Disconnect from the Internet and connect the DJI Vision app to your aircraft. Check that remote controller S1 switch is in

position (position-1) and the upper left corner in ground stat ion display and wait for the aircraft to enter “Readyto-Fly” mode (LED indicator blinking green) before swiping left into ground station. Tap on the map to place a waypoint. You can place up to 16 waypoints including the Home point. Waypoints cannot be placed beyond 500m from the Home point or inside No Waypoint Areas. Figure 100

Figure 101 Figure 102

Figure 103 Figure 104Ground Station

### 44 © 2015 DJI. All Rights Reserved. A circle on the map, as shown in Figure 104, indicates a restricted, No Waypoint area. Waypoints cannot be placed in this area. For more information, refer to “ 6.2 Flight Restriction of Restricted Areas (P30) ”. To achieve the optimal video transmission quality, the aircraft is set to operate within a 500m-radius area from Home point.

Tap on a waypoint to open a waypoint properties window. Slide the white dot right to adjust waypoint altitude. The default altitude is set to 98 feet (30 m) and can be adjusted from 0 to 650 feet (200 m). Tap “OK” to save waypoint settings. To delete current waypoint, tap . Modify longitude and latitude value using the input box.

Step 3 Preview a Mission: Tap “Done” to preview the mission when all waypoints are set. A prompt similar to the one below will appear. This prompt lists all waypoints and their altitudes. The aircraft will fly to each waypoint listed. If there is a difference in altitude between waypoints, the aircraft will adjust its altitude as it flies between points. When ready, tap “GO” to begin mission.

Figure 107 Aircraft reacts differently to the “GO” command: If aircraft is on the ground, the aircraft takes off automatically and ascend 16 feet (5m) then fly to the first waypoint. If aircraft is in the air, the aircraft flies to the first waypoint.

Step 4 Executing Flight Mission The aircraft flies to each waypoint in numerical order. As it flies, swipe back into the DJI Vision app camera GUI to control camera tilt and capture photos or video. Tap to pause the mission during the flight, and aircraft will then start hovering. Tap to resume mission. If you wish to regain control of the aircraft, toggle the S1 switch on remote controller from (Position-1) to either (Position-2) or (Position-3) to discontinue the current mission. Step 5 Landing When all waypoints have been visited, the aircraft will return to its Home point and hover. Regain control of the aircraft and land it manually. You may also tap button to initiate “Go Home” procedure. Aircraft will abort current mission, return to Home point and auto land. When the aircraft is landing automatically, users can control the aircraft’s position and altitude. Users can start the motors to take off immediately after the motors have stopped following auto landing. Figure 105 113.94984 22.54074 waypoint1

### 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 possi ble 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 de viation in the mid-point position. Solution: Use Assistant to perform a Remote Controller calibrat ion. 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 you r 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 Phan tom 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 1080i6 0 video files.Appendix

### 50 © 2015 DJI. All Rights Reserved. 

### 3.8 Failure to share. Solution: Make sure your mobile device has access to the Intern et. 

### 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 co nnection 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 connectionis 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. 

### 3.10 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 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 batter y 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 for fu ture 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 mi ssion, aircraft continues with the remaining flight mission. If DJI Vision App is closed and failed to re-connect with aircr aft within 1 minute, aircraft returns home point automatically. 

### 3.7 iOS Albums fail to synchronize. Solution: Reset the settings of your mobile device as illustrated below. Enable the Settings -> Private -> Photos -> DJI VISION. Otherwise Albums will fail to synchronize with your mob ile device.
