### Assembly and Use 

### 6 Preparing the Range Extender The Phantom 2 Vision+ Range Extender is a wireless communication device that operates within the 2.4 GHz frequency band. It is used to extending the effective range of communication between a Smartphone and the Phantom 2 Vision+. In an open, unobstructed area, the transmission distance can reach up to 700 meters. This can be reduced by trees, buildings and other sources of the same frequency. Before every flight, it is suggested that you ensure the Range Extender is functioning properly; otherwise communication issues between the mobile device and the Phantom 2 Vision+ may occur. 

### Each Range Extender has a unique MAC address and network name (SSID), details of which are printed on the label as 'Phantom_XXXXXX'. The 'XXXXXX' represents the last 6 letters or numbers of the MAC address for the Range Extender. This can be renamed in the DJI VISION App.

# 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 Control, 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. m 

### (6) Camera lens cap has been removed. n 0 (7) Micro-SD card has been inserted if necessary. ~ (8) Gimbal is functioning as normal. cn 

### (9) Motors can start and are functioning as normal. cn (10) DJI VISION App can connect to the camera. 

### 1 Calibrating the Compass 

# ~ IMPORTANT: Make sure to calibrate the compass in every new flight location. The compass is very sensitive to electromagnetic interference, which can cause abnormal compass data leading to poor flight performance or even flight failure. Regular calibration is required for optimum performance. e - DO NOT calibrate your compass where there is a chance of strong magnetic interference, such as magnetite, parking structures, and steel reinforcements underground. 

### • DO NOT carry ferromagnetic materials with you during calibration such as keys or cellular phones. • DO NOT calibrate beside massive metal objects. 

### 1.1 Calibration Procedures Choose an open space to carry out the following procedures. Watch the Phantom 2 Vision+ quick start video for more detai Is. Quickly flip the switch S1 Position-1 ((Y;, ~ Position-3 Position-1->Position-3->Position1 Flip 5 times or above, or tap I "Compass Calibration" in DJI VISION APP

### Flight 

### •• If compass calibration is needed before flight, a prompt will appear on the DJI VISON App's camera page. It will disappear after successful calibration. 

### 1.2 When to Recalibrate (1) When compass data is abnormal, the rear LED flight indicator will blink red and yellow. (2) Flying in different location to last flight. 

### (3) Mechanical structure of the Phantom has changed, i.e. changed mounting position of the compass. (4) Severe drifting occurs in flight, i.e. Phantom does not fly in straight lines. 

### 2 Starting/Stopping the Motors 2.1 Starting Motors A Combination Stick Command (CSC) is used to start the motors instead of simply pushing the stick up. Push both sticks to their bottom corners to start the 4 , motors. Once the motors have spun up, release both sticks simultaneously. ® ~ •t ®

~ o •e°e 

### 2.2 Stopping Motors Figure 49 There are two methods to stop the motors. 

### Method 1: When the Phantom has landed, push the throttle down, then conduct CSC. Motors will stop immediately.

Release both sticks once motors stop. 

### Method 2: When the aircraft has landed, push the throttle down and hold. Motors will stop after 3 seconds.

## ;~ ; • Conduct the CSC as neatly as you can. Release the sticks once motors start/stop. • Pull down the throttle stick to descend. The stick will lock into place and the aircraft will descend steadily. Push the throttle stick upward to release throttle lock. 

### 3 Flight Test 3.1Take off/Landing Procedures (1) Place the Phantom 2 Vision+ on open flat ground with battery indicators facing towards you. (2) Power on the Remote Control 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 Control Operation (Page 18) for more details. (6) Shoot photos and videos using the DJI VISION App. Refer to DJI VISION App Usage (Page 32) 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 Control.

### Flight



### Q i, • 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 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. 

### 4 Failsafe Function The Phantom will enter Failsafe mode when its connection to the Remote Control 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 Control signal is lost, the aircraft will return to the recorded home point coordinates and land. • Home point coordinates are used to calculate the horizontal distance of the aircraft (shown as "Distance" on the GUI of the DJI VISION App). • After successfully record the home point, rear LED flight indicators 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 Control is powered off. (2) The Phantom has flown out of effective remote control range. 

### (3) The signal between the Remote Control and the Phantom has been blocked. (4) There is interference causing a signal problem with the Remote Control. 

### 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 descent and landing. It may be drift during the descent and landing process. Ready to Fly— Automatic go home and land The Flight Control System will automatically control the aircraft to fly back to the home point and land. 1 Record Home Point 2 Flying 3 Remote Control signal lost

### 6 Flight Limits AII unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) operators should abide by all regulations from such organizations as the ICAO (International Civil Aviation Organization) and their own national airspace regulations. For safety reasons, the flight limits function is enabled by default to help users use this product safely and legally. The flight limits function includes height, distance limits and No Fly Zones. 

### In Ready to Fly mode, height, distance limits and No Fly Zones work together to manage flight. In Ready to Fly (non-GPS) status, only height limits work and flights cannot go higher than 120m.



## ~ Default parameters in Assistant are compliant within the definitions of class G ruled by ICAO. (Refer to Airspace Definition to get more details). As each country has its own rules, make sure to configure these parameters to comply with these rules before flying. 

### 6.1 Max Height & Radius Limits Max Height & Radius limits flying height and distance. Configuration can be done in the Phantom 2 Vision+ Assistant (Figure 57). Once complete, your Phantom will fly in a restricted cylinder (Figure 58).

Category A Safety Zone 

### (1) The category A"safety zone" is comprised of a small "no-fly zone" and a range of "restricted-altitude zones". Flight is prevented in the "no-fly zone" but can continue with height restrictions in the restricted-altitude zone. 

### (2) 1.5 miles (2.4 km) around a designated safety zone is a no-fly zone, inside which takeoff is prevented. (3) 1.5 miles (2.4 km) to 5 miles (8 km) around restricted areas are altitude restricted, with maximum altitude going from 35 feet (10.5 m) at 1.5 miles (2.4 km) to 400 feet (120 m) at 5 miles (8 km). 

### (4) A"warning zone" has been set around the safety zone. When you fly within 320 feet (100m) of the safety zone, a warning message will appear on the DJI Vision app. Category B Safety Zone 

### (1) Category B"safety zone" is comprised of a"no-fly zone" and a"warning zone". (2) 0.6 miles (1 km) around the safety zone is a designated "no-fly zone". (3) A"warning zone" has been set around the safety zone. When you fly within 0.6 miles (1 Km) of this zone, a warning will appear on the DJI Vision app.
