## RE: ExemptionRequest Section 333 oftheFAA ReformAct and Part 11ofthe FederalAviation Regulations Dear Sir/Madam: Pursuantto Section 333 ofthe FAA Modernization and Reform Act of2012 (The ReformAct) and 14C.F.R. Part 11, SuffolkConstruction Company, Inc. ("Suffolk"), a design/build construction managementfirm, on behalfofitselfandits related entitiesundercommon ownership andcontrol, herebyapplies for an exemptionfrom thelisted FederalAviation Regulations ("FARs") to allow commercial operation ofits Small UnmannedAircraft Systems ("sUAS") for aerial imagingfor safety andmonitoringofsecuredandcontrolled environmentconstruction sites, so long as such operations are conductedwithin andunderconditions outlinedherein oras maybe establishedbythe FAA as requiredby Section 333. Suffolkagreeswith Congress' objective to have sUAS safelyandexpedientlyintegrated into the national airspace, as itrecognizesthatthe commercialuse ofsUAS is animportant technological advancementwithpractical applications for safety, andefficiency across many industries, none more so thanthe constructionindustry. Suffolk strivestobalance its strongsafety programwiththeincreasingneedtoimplementinnovative processesto constructits projects and make a difference in the community. Accordingly, Suffolk seeks authorizationfrom the FAA to operate sUAS to enhance its commitmentto safetyon its increasinglycomplex construction sites. Suffolk's alreadyrobustsafetyprogramwouldbenefitgreatlyfrom theuse ofsUAS, which would minimizetheriskassociatedwith inspections ofhardto reach areas, and assistin the elimination of conflict during construction. The requested exemptionwouldpermitSuffolkto operatean sUAS undercontrolled conditions thatare: 1) defined 2) planned 3) controlled as to operation and4) wouldreinforcethe safetypractices andprotocols followed bySuffolk's Safetydepartmentateach ofits construction sites. This exemption will improve Suffolk's safetypractices atits projectsites and aligns withthe SecretaryofTransportation's ( "FAA's Administrator") responsibilityto "

...establishrequirements for the safe operation ofsuch aircraftsystemsinthe national airspace system." Section 333 (c) ofthe Reform Act.

## PUBLIC INTEREST & 

## SAFETY BENEFITS



## Suffolkhasbeenprivilegedto workon some ofthemostrecognizable andhigh profile constructionprojectsin the nation, includingpartnershipswithworldrenownedhealthcare systems, distinguisheduniversities, andprivate developers seekingto transformcommunities throughoutthe countrywithinnovative constructionprojects. As a designbuildandconstruction managementfirm, Suffolkis responsible for managinglarge complex constructionsites. Theuse of sUAS wouldbebeneficial for Suffolk's inspections ofprojects duringthe preconstruction, construction and eventhepostconstructionphasesto preventconflicts, ensure quality, minimize riskandensure safetyofworkers andthe generalpublic. The use ofsUAS on construction sites supports Suffolk's "Build Smart" approach,which utilizes innovation andtechnologyto constructall projects regardless ofsize. Suffolk's primarygoal for its use ofsUAS is to reduce theriskofconstruction-related accidents while inspecting, surveying and monitoringthe site, includinginspections ofrooftops, building envelopes, and otherareas of buildingsthatare otherwise inaccessible orcan onlybe accessedwith specialized equipmentand at

## greaterriskto safety. sUAS have the capabilitiesto inspect, photograph, andcollect datafrom these difficultto reach areasthatotherwisewouldrequire aninspectionbyatradesperson. 1 

## Combinedwith its "Build Smart" approach, Suffolk's SAFEtrac Programreflects its commitmenttohavingthe safestprojectsites inthe country. Accordingly, theuse ofsUAS onits projectsites wouldbeanintegral partofSuffolk's SAFEtrac program, as itprovides Suffolk an effective alternativeto havingworkers conductinspections in potentiallydangerous areas ofa projectsite, anditeliminatesthe needto employadditional construction equipmenton active sites to complete such aninspection. Lastly, sUAS decreasethe environmentalimpactbyeliminatingthe energyuse and pollutionthattraditionallyaccompanies aerial imaging anddata collection over construction sites. This reinforces Suffolk's "Green" practices, which make up its environmentallyfriendly and sustainable approachto construction management. Suffolkis passionate aboutminimizingits carbonfootprint, anditis committedto its "Green" standardoperatingprocedures,which ensures that Suffolkcontinuesto reduce its impactonthe environment.

II. LEVEL OF SAFETY 

## The framework ofSuffolk's SafetyProgramcomplies with and exceedsthelevel ofsafety requiredbythe FAA regarding sUAS. Suffolk's use ofthe sUAS, is an essential step injoiningits safetyobjectives withinnovative construction. More specifically, the use ofsUAS will notonly preventits employees and other constructionworkers from havingto access areas oftheprojectsite thatare potentiallydangerous, butitwill allowfor the efficient collection ofdata andimages to prevent conflicts in construction and allowfor timelycompletion ofprojects. This enables Suffolk's SafetyDepartmentto analyze andevaluate issues onprojects,whichwill help preventconstruction related accidents. Given its focus on safety, Suffolk, following extensive research, intendsto usethe DJI Phantom 2Vision+ ("Proposed sUAS") on its constructionsprojects, as it contains severalbuilt-in safetyenhancementsthatcoincide withthe FAA's limitations on sUAS use. The safetyenhancements builtintothe ProposedsUAS ensurenotonlythe safetyofSuffolk employees, butalso the safetyof the generalpublic. The Proposed sUAS weighs approximately2.7pounds and carriesno flammable liquid fuels or explosive materials. Additionally, the ProposedsUAS operates exclusivelywithin a secured area as setbya GPS feature. The sophisticatednature ofthe GPS system onthe ProposedsUAS limits its flight altitudeto lessthan400AGL, andrestrictsthe areas in which itcanfly. Whenin fly mode, thelimits onthe Proposed sUAS's altitude andrangeworkin conjunctionwithknown "No Fly Zones," such as airports and otherrestrictedairspace,topreventthe inadvertentviolation ofthe FAA's sUAS flight restrictions. The defaultparameters ofthe Proposed sUAS also limitflight to Class Gairspace. Furthermore,the GPS feature prohibitsthe ProposedsUAS from enteringrestricted airspace, andhas a failsafe function, whichwill causethe Proposed sUAS to automaticallyreturn hometo the recorded GPS coordinates oftheremote controllerandlandto preventinjuryordamage inthe**eve~t**

## 3

## Finally, Suffolkwill operateunderits own standardoperatingprocedures andits SAFEtrac approachthatwill provide additional safeguardsto supplementthe FAA's safety requirements for theuse ofsUAS. Specifically, Suffolkwill train all operatorsonthe use ofthe Proposed sUAS in accordancewiththe DJI User manual (See enclosedExhibit

## A) and PilotTraining Guide from DJI. (See enclosedExhibit

## B). The operatorswill be requiredto showproficiencyin operatingthe ProposedsUAS priorto usingthe sUAS for inspections ata projectsite. Additionally, flights ofthe proposedsUAS will berestrictedto thevisual line ofsite ofthe operatorwith a maximum height offour hundred (400) feetAGL. The flight ofthe sUAS will also belimitedtothe lateral andverticalboundaryofthe construction site in which itis being operated. III. EXPLANATION OF APPLICABLE REGULATIONS 14 CFR Part 21, Subpart H: Airworthiness Certificates 14C.F.R. 91.203 (a)(1) 

## SubpartH, entitledAirworthiness Certificates establishestheprocedural requirements for theissuance ofairworthiness certificates as requiredbyFAR 91.203 (a) (1). Given the size and limited operatingareaassociatedwiththe aircrafttothebeutilizedbySuffolk, an exemptionfrom Part21, SubpartHmeetsthe requirements ofan equivalentlevel ofsafetyunderPart 11 and Section 333 ofthe Reform Act. The ProposedsUAS weighs approximately2.7 pounds fully loadedanddoes notcarrya pilot, passengers, explosive materials orflammable liquidfuels. Additionally, it is equippedwith a Flight Limitation System, which uses GPS to designate "No Fly Zones" within 5 miles ofairports. The Proposed sUAS also has a height and distance setting, so the sUAS will notexceed400 feetAGL. Like othercivil aircraft, operationofthe Proposed sUAS will be controlled andmonitoredbythe operator in accordancewiththe requirements ofDJI User Manual, andthe operatorwill keepthe sUAS within visual line ofsightinside the establishedboundaries ofthe construction site. Additionally, the operation ofthe ProposedsUAS will be in compliancewithlocal public safetyrequirements, as are currentlyrequired on Suffolk's active construction sites. These safetyenhancements,which alreadyapplyto civil aircraftoperatedin connection with construction sites, provide a greater degree ofsafetytothe public andpropertyownersthan conventional operations conductedwith airworthiness certificatesissuedunder 14 C.F.R. Part 21, SubpartH. 14 C.F.R. 45.23(b): MarkingofAircraft 

## This regulationrequires certain experimental,provisionallycertified aircraft, orlight sportcategoryaircrafttobemarked, withlettersbetween 2 inches and 6 incheshigh "limited", "restricted", "light-sport", "experimental", or "provisional", near each entranceto a cabin, cockpit or pilot station.Even thoughtheproposed sUAS will have no airworthiness certificate, an exemption maybe neededasthe UAS will have no entrancetothe cabin, cockpit, orpilot station onwhichthe word "Experimental" canbeplaced. Given the size ofthe Proposed sUAS, two inch letteringwill be impossible, astheproposedsUAS is 2.7 poundsintotalweight andapproximately 1 footwide.

14 CFR 61.113 (a) & 

### (b): Private Pilotprivileges andlimitations: Pilotin Command 

## Sections 61.113 (a) & 

## (b) limits privatepilots to non-commercial operations. As the sUAS will notcarrya pilotorpassengers, the proposedoperations can achieve the equivalentlevel of safetythrough an operatortrainingprogram at Suffolk. The programwill requirethateach pilotis 

## 4

## well-versedinthe DJI User Manual, takejofflandingprocedures, and Failsafe Function. The operator will also berequiredto showproficiencyinthe operation ofProposedsUAS in accordancewiththe DJI PilotTrainingGuide priorto usingthe ProposedsUAS on an active construction site. The pilot will also betrainedonthe Flight Environment Requirements andthe Preflight Checklist. Unlike a conventional aircraftthatcarriesthepilot andpassengers, the Proposed sUAS is remotelycontrolled with no passengers orcargo onboard. The risks associatedwiththe operation ofthe ProposedsUAS are minimal comparedtothelevel ofriskassociatedwith commercial operations contemplatedby Part 61, when drafted. Accordingly, allowing operations ofthe sUAS as requestedwith an operator who has mettheminimum requirements statedin Section Fofthe DJI User Manual exceeds the presentlevel ofsafetyachievedby 14CFR 61.113 (a) & 

## (b). 14CFR 91.7 (a): CivilAircraftWorthiness 

## The regulationrequiresthatno personmayoperatea civil aircraftunless itis in airworthycondition. As therewill be no airworthiness certificateissuedfor the Proposed sUAS, shouldthis exemptionbe granted, no FAA regulatory standardwill existfor determining airworthiness. Because ofthe size oftheproposed sUAS andthe Flight EnvironmentRequirements and PreflightChecklistinthe DJI User Manual, an equivalentlevel ofsafetywill be provided. 14CFR 91.9 (b) (2): CivilAircraftflightmanual, markingand placard requirements 

## Given its size andconfiguration,the ProposedsUAS does nothave a placeto carrysuch a flight manual, andthereis no pilot onboardso having a flight manual onthe ProposedsUAS serves no purpose. The equivalentlevel ofsafetywill bemaintainedbykeepingthe DJI User Manual atthe ground controlpointwherethe operatorwill be flying the Proposed sUAS. Accordingly, the operator will have immediate access to the DJI User Manual. The FAA hasissuedthe following exemptionsto this regulation specificto constructionmanagementfirms like Suffolk: Danis Building Construction CompanyExemption No. 11275; Clayco, Inc. Exemption No. 11109; andBechtel Equipment Operations, Inc. Exemption No. 11258 14CFR 91.103: PreflightAction 

## This regulationrequires each pilotin commandtotake certain actionsbefore flight to ensurethe safetyofflight. An exemptionis neededfrom this requirementasthe operatorofthe Proposed sUAS will take separatepreflightactions, including checkingfor weatherconditions, checkingthe flight batteryrequirements, and all action inthe PreflightChecklistin the DJI User Manual. These actions will provide an equivalentlevel ofsafety. 14CFR 91.109: FlightInstruction 

## Section 91.109 providesthatno personmayoperate a civil aircraft (except a manned free balloon) thatis beingusedfor flight instructionunless thataircrafthasfully functioning dual controls. The Proposed sUAS is a quadrotorwith abuiltin Flight Control Systemwithintegrated gimbal andcamera. Flight controlis accomplishedthrough use ofa remote controller, awireless communication device with a 5.8GHz frequencybandthatcommunicateswiththe aircraftvia radio communications. Therefore, there is no dual control, and anequivalentlevel ofsafetyis achieved throughbuilt-in safetymeasures, includingbutnotlimitedto, a programmedreturn shouldthe connectionwiththeremotebelost. The FAA has previouslyapproved exemptionsfor aircraft withoutfully functional dual controls. Therefore, the equivalentlevel ofsafetyis providedwiththe Proposed sUAS, because no pilots orpassengerswill be carriedinthe aircraft, andthe abilityto controlthe ProposedsUAS via radio signals from the controller.

## 14CFR91.119: Minimum Safe Altitudes Section 91.119 establishes safe altitudes for operation ofcivil aircraft. Section 91.199(d) allows helicopters to be operatedatlessthantheminimum prescribed, providedtheperson operatingthehelicopter complieswith anyroute oraltitudes prescribedfor helicoptersbythe FAA. This exemptionis for a quadrotorcraftthatflies similarlyto ahelicopterwithverticaltake-offand vertical landing. The Proposed sUAS will notoperate atan altitude higherthan400AGL and orin a restricted area. Please see attached DJI User Manual. 14CFR 91.121AltimeterSettings This regulation requires eachperson operatingan aircraftto maintain cruising altitude byreferenceto an altimeterthatis set"

...to the elevation ofthe departure airportor an appropriate altimeter settingavailablebefore departure." Although theproposed sUAS has a barometric altimeter, and a GPS altituderead out, the defaultflight settings, accordingtothe DJI User Manual, limitthe altitude to 400 feetAGL. Therefore, an equivalentlevel ofsafetycanbe achievedbythe operatorusingthe ProposedsUAS inthe default settings with a limited altitude of400 feet orless. 14CFR 91.151(a): Fuel Requirementsfor flight inVFR Conditions Section 91.151 (a) outlines fuel requirements for beginninga flight inVFR conditions. The Proposed sUAS is limitedto controlled operationsbythe operator, andhas a limitedrange and flight timewhich require an exemption from 14 CFR 91.151(a). The flight time ofthe Proposed sUAS is approximately25 minutes on a fully charged battery. The proposedsUAS also has a SmartFlightbatteryfunction thatcommunicateswiththe operatoraboutbatterycapacity, througha batterylevel LED indicator.Whenthebatteryofthe Proposed sUAS is depleted duringoperation,the operatorwill receive a warning, andbeprompted to landthe Proposed sUAS. In fact, a safetyfeature ofthe ProposedsUAS allows itto automatically returntothe home pointin the eventoflowbattery. Additionally, ifthebatteryreaches a critically lowlevel, suchthatitshouldlandimmediately,the Proposed sUAS will automaticallydescend, and the operatorwill onlybe able to hoverandnavigateto an appropriatelocationtoland. The thresholdfor a lowbatteryis automaticallydeterminedbased onthe Proposed sUAS' altitude andits distance from thehomepoint. Accordingly, poweredflight time ofthe Proposed sUAS andits low batterywarningfunction achieve an equivalentlevel ofsafety, suchthatan exemptionis warranted. 14CFR91.203 (a) 

## and (b): Carrying CivilAircraft Certificationand Registration The regulation providesin part: (a) Except as provided in 91.715, no personmayoperate a civil aircraftunless ithas withinitthe following: 1. An appropriate andcurrentairworthiness certificate

... (b) No person mayoperate a civil aircraftunless the airworthiness certificate requiredbyparagraph (a) ofthis section orspecial flight authorizationissuedunder 91.715 is displayed atthe cabin orcockpit entrance so thatitis legibleto passengers orcrew. The Proposed sUAS weighs atotal of2.7pounds andmeasures approximately 1 foot wide. As such, itdoes nothave a cabin or cockpit, anditis operatedbyremote controlwithoutan

## onboardpilot. Therefore, thereis no abilityto carrycertification andregistration documents onboard. An equivalentlevel ofsafetywill beachievedbyhavingthe DJI User Manual atthe groundwiththe operatorofthe ProposedsUAS. This will allowthe operatorto have immediate accesstothe DJI User Manual shoulditbe neededduring operation ofthe ProposedsUAS. The FAA has issuednumerous exemptionsto this regulation, includingwithoutlimitation Exemption Nos. 9565, 9665, 9789, 9789A, 9797, 9797 A, 9816A, and 10700. 14CFR 91.405 (a); 

## 407 (a) 

## (1); 409 (a) (2); 

## 417(a) & 

## (b): Maintenance Inspections 

## These regulations requirethatan aircraft operatororowner inspectthe aircraft "as prescribedin subpartEofthis partand shallbetweeninspections, except as providedin paragraph (c) ofthis section, have discrepancies repairedas prescribedin part43 ofthis chapter

..." As these sections andPart43 applyonlyto aircraftswith an airworthiness certificate, these sections shouldnotapplyto Suffolk An equivalentlevel ofsafetywill be achievedthroughthe inspection andmaintenance ofthe ProposedsUAS bythe operatoraccordingtothe D JI User Manual andthe Preflight Checklist. Given the small size ofthe ProposedsUAS, controlled operation, limited amountofflight time andthelackofpassengers,the inspection andmaintenance,which is required in the DJI User Manual, is sufficientto ensurethe safetyofthe operatorandthepublic. Ifa mechanical issue wereto arise during operation,the Proposed sUAS can landimmediatelyandwill be operatingno higherthan400 feetAGL. As providedin the DJI User Manual, the operatorwill ensurethatthe ProposedsUAS is inworking orderbygoingthroughthe PreflightChecklist and FlightTestas well as adheringtothe Flight Environment Requirements.

### 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 awayfrom obstacles, crowds, high voltage power lines, trees or bodies ofwaterwhen 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 notfly 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-SO card has been inserted if necessary. (8) Gimbal '1s functioning as normal. (9) Motors can start and are functioning as normal. 

### (1O) OJI 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 poorflight performance or even flight failure. Regular calibration is required for optimum performance. 

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

## 1.1Calibration Procedures Choose an open space to carry out the following procedures. Watch the Phantom

## 1.2 When to Recalibrate (1) When compass data is abnormal, the rear LED flight indicatorwill 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 ofthe compass. (4) Severe drifting occurs in flight, i.e. Phantom does notfly 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 motors. Once the motors have spun up, release both sticks simultaneously.



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

### 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.

[1] [2] Figure 50 Figure 51 

# 0 Do not execute

# esc during normal flight. This will stop the motors and cause the aircraft to drop without control. 

# :¢: •Conductthe CSC as neatly as you can. Release the sticks once motors start/stop. • Pull down the throttle stickto 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 indicatorsfacing 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 smartphonethen 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 itflashes 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 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 gentlyto descend. (8) After landing, execute the 

# esc command or hold the throttle at its lowest position for 3 seconds or more until the motors stop. (9) Turn off the srnart battery, Range Extender and Rernote Controller.Flight 

# .& •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. Referto the Low Battery Level Warning Function(Page 28) for details. • View tutorials aboutflight 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 modeto Stabilized. (3) Aim to shoot when flying in Ready to Fly only. (4) Always fly in good weather, such as sunny orwindless 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 gentlyto 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 aircraftto return to home and land to prevent injury or damage. 

## E{j 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 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 ofthe 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 ofthe 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 FailsafeActivate? (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 been blocked. (4) There is interference causing a signal problem with the Remote Controller. 

### 4.2 Failsafe Procedure Initiating the Failsafe modefrom differentflying statuses will results in different landing processes. Readyto Fly(non-GPS)- Automatic landing The Flight Control System will keep the aircraft level during descentand landing. It may be drift during the descent and landing process. Readyto Fly- Automatic go home and land The Flight Control System will automatically control the aircraftto fly backtothe home point and land. 1 Record Home Point 2 Flying 3 Remote Controller signal lost

## 3.1 Howto solve large margin(s) mid-point error? Appendix

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 possiblefixes 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 deviation in the mid-point position. Solution: Use Assistant to perform a Remote Controller calibration. 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 your Remote Controller to OJI Customer service for repair. 

## 3.2 Howto restore a video file if power isturned off during a recording session? Solution: Keep or placethe Micro-SO card back into the camera. Power cyclethe camera and wait about 30 secondsfor 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 2Vision+ 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 atthe 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 Phantom 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 supportthe synchronization of the 1 080i60videofiles. )>

## 3.9 Some Android devices have a problem connecting to the Phantom 2Vision+ Wi-Fi Extender. Solution: Some Android devices do not allowfor both a Wi-Fi connection and a mobile data connection at the same time. When trying to connectto 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 connection is 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 uncheckthe "Auto network switch". You might see a warning that indicates the Internet connection is unstable this message can be ignored. 

## 3.10App tips for mobile devices. Solution: If using the App on multiple mobile devices turn offthe App on the first mobile device then turn it on the second one to ensure normal functions on the second mobile device. 

## 3.11 Howto land the aircraft more smoothly? Solution: First pull thethrottle 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 battery 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 future use. 

## 3.15 What if Iaccidently exit DJI Vision App in ground station mode? If DJI Vision App is closed when aircraft is executing flight mission, aircraft continues with the remaining flight mission. If DJI Vision App is closed and failed to re-connect with aircraftwithin 1 minute, aircraft returns home point automatically.
