# Aircraft

The Phantom 3 Advanced's flight controller features several important upgrades, including a new flight mode. 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. 1

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 of P-mode, which will be automatically selected by the Phantom 3 Advanced depending on signal strength 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 onlythe Vision Positioning System for positioning. P-ATIJ: 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 retum to the home point 

### if the control signal is lost and the Home Point was recorded successfully. F-mode (Function): Intelligent Orientation Control (IOC) is activated in this mode. For more information about IOC, refer to the IOC section in the Appendix.

**~\;>:** Use the Aight Controller mode switch to change the flight mode ofthe·aircraft, referto the "Flight Mode Switch" on Page 26 for more information.

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

**~EDs** are shown in the figure below:

Aircraft Status Indicator

The Front LEOs show the orientation of the aircraft. The Front LEOs 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 ofthe flight controller. Referto the table belowfor more information aboutthe Aircraft Status Indicators:

### The low battery level failsafe is triggered when the OJI Intelligent Right Battery Is depleted to a pointthat may affectthe safe return ofthe aircraft. Users are advised to return home or land the aircraft immediately when prompted. The DJI GO 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 aten-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 level can only support the aircraft long enough to descend from its current altitude. The user can still use the remote controller 

### to alter the aircraft's orientation during the landing process. The Battery Level Indicator is displayed in the OJI GO app, and is described below:

# Troubleshooting (FAQ) What Isthedifference between the Phantom 3 Professional and the Phantom 3 Advanced? The biggest difference between the Phantom 3 Professional and the Phantom 3 Advanced is in the camera. The Phantom 3 Professional is capable of shooting spectacular 4K video at up to 30 frames per second, and the Phantom 3 Advanced is capable of shooting at resolutions up to 1OB0p60. Both models shoot 12 megapixel photos. The other main difference is the Intelligent Right Battery charger. The Phantom 3 Advanced comes 

### with a 57-watt charging unit and the Phantom 3 Professional comes with a 100-watt charger, the latter of which allows for shorter charging times. Can I remove the camera and attach my own? No. The cameras that comewith both models are permanently attached. Attempting to remove, replace, or modifythe camera may damage the product and will void your warranty. Can I charge my Remote Controllerand Intelligent Flight BaHery atthe same time? While the Remote Controller charger and Intelligent Flight Battery charger have been integrated into one unitfor your convenience, it is recommended that you only charge one item at a time. We recommend that you nevercharge both items using the same charger atthe same time. What arethebuttons on the back of my Reinote Controllerfor? The two buttons on the back of the Remote Controller can be customized and assigned to function as you choose through the DJI GO app. Refer to the manual for more information. How far can I fly my Phantom 3?

### 49Phantom 3 Advanced User Manual Howdo I usethe Directorautomaticvideo editor? Director is an automatic video editor built into the DJI GO app. After recording several video clips, simply tap "Director" from the app's home screen. You can then select 

### a template and a specified number of clips, which are automatically combined to create a short film that can be shared immediately. How do I changethe 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 left control stick controls the throttle and orientation of the aircraft. These controls can be changed to Mode 1 or set to a customized configuration in the DJI GO 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 Controller operates on 

### a different frequency. The Phantom 2 Remote Controller operates at5.8 GHz and the new Phantom 3 Remote Controller operates at 2.4 GHz. Can I use

### a Phantom 2 Intelligent Flight Batterywith the Phantom 3? No. The Phantom 

### 3 uses 

### a newly designed Intelligent Right Battery with greater power. The Phantom 

### 3 has a4 cell batterywith a capacity of4480 

### mAh and avoltage of 15.2 V. My Phantom 3 does notturn off right away, Is something wrong? This is normal. After you attempt to power off the Intelligent Flight Battery, it may remain on for a few seconds as any video data is saved to the Micro SD card. This helps prevent your datafrom being lost or corrupted. Do 

### I have to buy the Remote Controllerseparately? No, there is no need to buy a separate Remote Controller. Your Phantom 3 comeswith a Remote Controller that is already 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 time. What doesthe "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 attemptto 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 aircraft can still return to the Home Point as long as a sufficient GPS signal is available. F-modS, or Function mode, activates Intelligent Orientation Control {IOC) functionality. Refer to the IOC section in the Appendix ofthe User Manual. By default, only P-mode may be used. Refer to your user manual for instructions on unlocking the other modes. 

### 50 ©2015 OJL All Rights ReservedPhantom3 Advanced User Manual What Isthe Phantom 3 flight time? Flight times will vary depending on environmental conditions and usage patterns, but the Intelligent Flight Battery is designed to provide upto 23 minutes of uninterrupted flight time when fully charged. How can I restore a video file ifthe power Is turned offduring recording? Do not remove the Micro-SO card from the camera. If it has been removed, place it back in the camera. Turn the Phantom 3 on and wait approximately 30 seconds as the video file is restored. How can I ensurethat my pictures and videos will be synchronized to my lOS album? You may need to adjust the settings of your mobile device. Open the Settings menu, select the Privacy tab, select the Photos tab, and then toggle the switch next to the OJI GO app icon. If the GO app has not been granted access to your albums, the photos and videos cannot be synchronized. What should I doto land my Phantom 3 smoothly as possible? Hover the aircraft over a flat. level surface. Slowly pull the throttle stick down until the aircraft touches the ground. Why Isthe dischargetime ofthe battery notzero, even though I have never used It? Every battery is tested prior to being packaged and shipped. This affects the discharge time of a new battery and is the reason that the dischargetime 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. Howto safely operate theaircraft when encountering compass error? A compass error may occur when the aircraft is flying close 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 GO 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 contro11er will automatically adjustthe orientation of the aircraft in the midairto mitigate the drifts. The aircraft will switch back to P-GPS mode when the automatic adjustment Is completed. Howto troubleshoot aircraft Initialization error? If you observe the following symptoms, it indicates the aircraft has failed to initialized: • The aircraft status indicator display flashing red, yellow and green. Even the aircraft is stationed on the

flat surface. • The System Status Bar in the app prompts "Initialization Error". • No resistance drive if felt on the gimbal. © 2016 DJI. All Rights Reserved. 

### 51

# • Phantom 3 Advanced User Manual Various factors contribute to the aircraft initialization error, try resolve the issue by following the suggestions listed below: • Sensor performance degraded. This may be due to the excessive bias detected from the IMU or the

compass reading is interfered. Try restarting and calibrating the IMU and compassto resolve this issue. • Sensor is defective. If the sensors remains unchanged at all time and the problem persist even when the

aircraft is restarted, it indicates the sensor is notworking normally. Users should return the aircraft to OJI for repairing. • Minor vibration is detected during aircraft initialization. Put the aircraft on the flat surface, power on the

aircraft and ensure the aircraft is stationed for more than 5 secondsto resolve the issue. • Serious vibration is detected during aircraft initialization. This instance generally occurs when the aircraft

is being initialization on the violent moving surface, for instance, ships that are on the rough sea. Do not attempt to power on the aircraft in this scenario
