Assembly and Use

Choose between Phantom and Naza-M working modes using Phantom 2 Vision+ Assistant. If using Naza-M mode, please refer to the NAZA-M V2 Quick Start Manual for related instructions.
Phantom: Flight settings will be selected automatically depending on whether 6 or more satellites have been
found. This mode allows users to congure the Remote Control and gain values, and use Failsafe and battery
level warnings.
Naza-M: Flight settings will be identical to the Naza-M V2. Users can choose between GPS, Attitude, or Manual mode. They can also access advanced settings including Intelligent Orientation Control (IOC). Rear LED Flight Indicators will display the ight status according to the Naza-M indicator. Ready to Fly: When 6 or more GPS satellites have been found, the Flight Control System will lock its home point
and Rear LED Flight Indicators will blink a slow green (
Ready to Fly (non-GPS): When less than 6 GPS satellites have been found, the Flight Control System will
stabilize itself less than in full Ready to Fly mode and will require more skilled ying. Rear LED Flight Indicators
will blink a slow yellow (
).
). This mode is ideal for beginners.

The Smart Flight Battery can be charged using an optional Phantom 2 Car Charger. This can charge the battery in-car or through 3S-6S Li-Po batteries. Contact your authorized dealer or DJI customer service for details.
Battery should only be charged with the charger provided by DJI. DJI does not take any responsibility for
damage caused by third party chargers.
If current battery level is over 75%, the battery should be turned on before charging.

2.4 Battery Installation

Push battery into battery compartment according to the below diagram. When you hear a click, the battery has been
properly installed.
An incorrectly installed battery may cause
Bad contact, Unavailable battery information, Unsafe ight,
Inability to take off.
Figure 7

2.5 Correct Battery Usage Notes

(1) When the battery is turned on, do not connect it to or disconnect it from the Phantom. (2) Charge and discharge the battery completely once every 20 charge/discharge cycles. Discharge the battery until
there is less than 8% power or until it can no longer be turned on, then recharge it to maximum capacity. This power cycling procedure will optimize the battery.
(3) For long term storage, place the battery with only a 40~50% charge in a strong battery box. Discharge and charge
the battery once every 3 months to keep it in good condition. Charge amount should be varied in these maintenance charges - (40%~50%)—0%—100%—(40%~50%).
(4) Purchase a new battery after your current battery has been discharged over 300 times. Completely discharge a
battery prior to disposal. Please dispose of batteries properly.
(5) Purchase a new battery if your current battery swells up or is damaged in any way.
(6) Never recharge or y with a battery that is swollen or damaged in any way. (7) Never charge batteries unattended. Always charge batteries on a non-ammable surface such as concrete and
never near any ammable materials.
(8) Safety is extremely important. For more information, please see the Disclaimer.
Discharging methods:
Slow: Place battery in Phantom and turn on. Leave on until there is less than 8% of power left or until the battery can no longer be turned on. See DJI VISION App for battery levels. Motors do not need to be turned on,
reducing wear.
Fast: Fly the Phantom outdoors until there is less than 8% of power left or until the battery can no longer be
turned on.

3.2 Built-in Flight Control System

The Phantom 2 Vision+ is equipped with a DJI Naza-M V2 Flight Control System. This provides incredible ease of use and stability. Pilots can control the Phantom’s movements in many directions, including pitch (forwards and backwards), roll (left and right), elevator (up and down) and yaw (turn left or right). The ight control system also can provide IOC,
Failsafe and battery level warnings.

Has a built-in inertial sensor and a barometric altimeter that measures both attitude and
altitude.
The compass reads geomagnetic information and assists the GPS (Global Position System) to accurately calculate the position and height of the aircraft.

FC Assistant Port
The ight control system communicates with the PC Assistant through a Micro-USB cable between the Phantom FC Assistant Port and the PC. Users can use Assistant to congure the aircraft and upgrade the Phantom rmware. Please

3.3 LED Flight Indicator Descriptions

LED ight indicators are found at the front and the rear of the Phantom. Front LEDs are for indicating where the nose of
the aircraft is. They light up solid red after motors have started spinning. Rear LED Flight Indicators light up to show the
aircraft’s current ight status once the ight battery is powered on. For details, please see the below table.

3.4 3-axial Stabilized Gimbal

The 3-axial stabilized gimbal of the Phantom 2 Vision+ will power on and self-check each time the ight battery
is installed and powered on. Its pitch can be controlled
using the DJI VISION App. This gimbal has two working modes, Non-FPV mode and FPV mode, with the Non-FPV mode set as default. This can be congured in Phantom 2 Vision+ Assistant or the DJI VISION App.

Anti-drop Kit
The Anti-drop Kit helps keep the gimbal and camera
connected to the aircraft. Two have been mounted on
delivery. If new ones are required, take the gimbal and
press part [1] through the center hole of the Vibration Absorber the center hole of part [2]. Lock them together as shown in [3]. Mounting the Anti-drop Kit diagonally is recommended.
Once part [1] and part [2] are connected, the Anti-drop Kit cannot be disconnected and reused.

Micro-SD Slot
With ight battery powered off, make sure the Micro-SD card is inserted correctly into the Micro-SD Slot before
taking any photos or recording any video.
The Phantom 2 Vision+ comes with a 4GB Micro-SD card and can support cards up to 32GB. The DJI VISION App may not be able to read some Micro-SD cards. Using the DJI VISION App to reformat new Micro-SD cards is
recommended. Refer to Format Micro-SD Card (Page 37) for details.
Do not insert or remove Micro-SD card when ight battery is powered on.
Figure 15
Gimbal Error Warnings
Before the aircraft takes off, if a gimbal motor error is detected or the gimbal clamp is not removed, there will be a warning prompt on the camera page of the DJI VISION App. This will disappear after the problem is resolved.
Figure 16 Figure 17

Assembly and Use
Remove gimbal clamp before powering on ight battery.
Gimbal motor error may occur in these situations: (1) Gimbal is placed on uneven ground. (2) Gimbal has
received an excessive external force, e.g. a collision. Please take off from at, open ground and protect the
gimbal after powering up.
Flying in heavy fog or cloud may make the gimbal wet, leading to a temporary failure. The gimbal will recover
when it dries out.

3.5 Camera

The Phantom 2 Vision+ camera powers up when the ight battery has been installed and switched on. Photos and videos can be shot by pressing either the onboard button or the DJI VISION App. For aerial photography it supports burst shots, continuous capture and timed capture, and exports to both Adobe DNG Raw and JPEG. For aerial video, it
shoots in full HD at (1080p30/1080i60) and can even shoot 720p60 for internet ready slow motion.
