Annex 2 Flight manual & Maintenance (manufacturer)

Before Flight

Once pre-flight preparation is complete, it is recommended to carry out the tasks in the 

Phantom Pilot Training Guide to prepare for more complex flight maneuvers and learn 

to fly safely. Ensure that all flights are carried out in a suitable location. 

Flight Environment Requirements

 1.Do not use the aircraft in severe weather conditions. These include wind speed 

exceeding category 4, snow, rain and smog. 

 2.Fly in open fields as high buildings or steel structures may affect the accuracy 

of the onboard compass. 

 3.Keep the Phantom away from obstacles, crowds, high voltage power lines, 

trees or bodies of water when in flight. 

 4.Reduce the chance of electromagnetic interference by not flying in areas with 

high levels of electromagnetism, including base stations or radio transmission 

towers. 

 5.The Phantom cannot operate within the polar areas. 

 6.Do not fly the aircraft within no-fly zones specified by local laws and 

regulations. 

Preflight Checklist

 1.Remote Controller, smart battery, Range Extender and smartphone are fully 

charged. 

 2.Propellers are mounted correctly. 

 3.Gimbal clamp has been removed. 

 4.Damping absorbers are in good condition, not broken or worn. 

 5.Anti-drop kits have been mounted correctly. 

 6.Camera lens cap has been removed. 

 7.Micro-SD card has been inserted if necessary. 

 8.Gimbal is functioning as normal. 

 9.Motors can start and are functioning as normal. 

 10.DJI VISION App can connect to the camera.

Maintenance

Remove the Housing

 1. Remove all the nuts and propellers by using the assistant wrench. 
 2. Remove the screws marked in the figure below using a Phillips Screwdriver 

and a Hexagon Screwdriver, and then remove the housing. 

Note:

 Please take good care of the removed parts, for example, screws. Make sure to 

keep them safe and away from children. 

 DO NOT use any thread locker, since the thread locker may corrode the shell of 

Phantom, may cause fractures. 

Extension Power

There is an extension power cable in the Phantom for DIY use. The voltage from the 

Extension Power Cable is the same voltage as the power battery. The red cable is for 

positive and the grey cable is for negative. Make sure to keep the red cable and the 

grey cable separated, to avoid short circuit. 
Flight Test (after each maintenance)

Take off/Landing Procedures

 1.Place the Phantom 2 Vision+ on open flat ground with battery indicators facing 

towards you. 

 2.Power on the Remote Controller and Range Extender, then the Smart Flight 

Battery. 

 3.Launch the DJI VISION App and start bind it with your smartphone then enter 

the camera preview page. 

 4.Wait until the Rear LED Flight Indicator blinks green. This means it has

initialized and is Ready to Fly. If it flashes yellow, it is in Ready to Fly (non-GPS) 

mode and will require more careful flight. Execute the CSC command to start 

motors. 

 5.Push the throttle up slowly to take off. Refer to Remote Controller Operationfor

more details. 

 6.Shoot photos and videos using the DJI VISION App. Refer to DJI VISION App 

Usage for more details. 

 7.To land, hover over a level surface and gently pull down on the throttle gently 

to descend. 

 8.After landing, execute the CSC command or hold the throttle at its lowest 

position for 3 seconds or more until the motors stop. 

 9.Turn off the smart battery, Range Extender and Remote Controller. 

Important: 

 (1)When the Rear LED Flight Indicator blinks yellow rapidly during flight, the 

aircraft has entered Failsafe mode. Refer to Failsafe Function (Page 41) for 

details. 

 (2)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) for details. 

 (3)View tutorials about flight for more flight information:

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 format 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.
