This section introduces the Flight Controller, Vision System, and the Intelligent
Flight Battery.
Aircraft
Flight Controller
The Phantom 4 Advanced / Advanced+ flight controller features several important upgrades. Safety
modes include Failsafe and Return-to-Home. These features ensure the safe return of your aircraft if the
control signal is lost. The ight controller can also save critical ight data from each ight to the on-board
storage device. The new ight controller also provides increased stability and a new air braking feature.
Flight Mode
Three ight modes are available. The details of each ight mode are found below:
P-mode (Positioning): P-mode works best when the GPS signal is strong. The aircraft utilizes GPS, stereo
Vision System to stabilize, avoid obstacles or track moving subjects. Advanced features such as TapFly
and ActiveTrack are enabled in this mode.
When the Forward Vision System is enabled and lighting conditions are sufcient, the maximum ight
attitude angle is 25° with a maximum ight speed of 31 mph (50 kph). When forward obstacle sensing
are disabled, the maximum ight attitude angle is 35° and the maximum ight speed is 36 mph (58 kph).
When the GPS signal is weak and lighting conditions are too dark for the Forward and Downward Vision
Systems, the aircraft will only use its barometer for positioning to control altitude.
Note: P-mode requires larger stick movements to achieve high speeds.
S-mode (Sport): The handling gain values of the aircraft are adjusted to enhance aircraft maneuverability.
The maximum ight speed of the aircraft is increased to 45 mph (72 kph). Note that Obstacle Sensing
systems are disabled in this mode.
A-mode (Attitude): When neither the GPS nor the Vision System is available, the aircraft will only use its
barometer for positioning to control the altitude.
The Vision System is disabled in S-mode (Sport), which means the aircraft will not be
able to automatically avoid obstacles in its ight path. Be vigilant and stay clear of nearby
obstacles.
The aircraft’s maximum speed and braking distance are significantly increased in S-mode
(Sport). A minimum braking distance of 164 feet (50 meters) is required in windless conditions.
The aircraft’s responsiveness is signicantly increased in S-mode (Sport), which means a small
stick movement on the remote controller will translate into a large travel distance of the aircraft.
Be vigilant and maintain adequate maneuvering space during ight.
The aircraft’s descent speed is signicantly increased in S-mode (Sport). A minimum braking
distance of 164 feet (50 meters) is required in windless conditions.

Return-to-Home (RTH)
Return-to-Home (RTH) function brings the aircraft back to the last recorded Home Point. There are three
types of RTH: Smart RTH, Low Battery RTH, and Failsafe RTH. This section describes these three scenarios
in detail.
GPS
If a strong GPS signal was acquired before takeoff, the Home Point is the
Home Point
location from which the aircraft launched. The GPS signal strength is indicated
by the GPS icon ( Less than 4 bars is considered a weak GPS signal). The
aircraft status indicator will blink rapidly when the home point is recorded.
The aircraft can sense and avoid obstacles when the Forward Vision System is enabled and
lighting conditions are sufcient. The aircraft will automatically climb up to avoid obstacles and
descend slowly as it returns to the home point. To ensure the aircraft returns home forwards, it
cannot rotate or y left and right during RTH while the Forward Vision System is enabled.
Failsafe RTH
The Forward Vision System allows the aircraft to create a real-time map of its ight route as it ies. If the
Home Point was successfully recorded and the compass is functioning normally, Failsafe RTH will be
automatically activated if the remote controller signal is lost for more than three seconds. The aircraft
will plan its return route and retrace its original ight route home. The aircraft will hover for 10 seconds
at its current location. When it regains signal connection it will wait for pilot commands. The Return-toHome process may be interrupted and the pilot given control of the aircraft if the remote controller signal
connection is re-established.

Aircraft cannot return to the Home Point when GPS signal is weak or unavailable.
Aircraft automatically descends and lands if RTH is triggered when the aircraft ies within a 65
feet (20 meters) radius of the Home Point. Aircraft will stop ascending and immediately return
to the Home Point if you move the left stick if the aircraft reaches 65 feet (20 meters) altitudes or
beyond during Failsafe.
The aircraft cannot avoid obstruction during Failsafe RTH if Forward Vision System is disabled.
It is important to set a suitable Failsafe altitude before each ight. Launch the DJI GO 4 app, tap
GO FLY and tap
to set the Failsafe Altitude.
User cannot control the aircraft while the aircraft is ascending to 65 feet (20 meters) from the
current altitude. However, user can press RTH button once to exit ascending and regain control.

Phantom 4 Advanced / Advanced+ User Manual
Smart RTH
Use the RTH button on the remote controller or tap the RTH button in the DJI GO 4 app and follow the onscreen instructions when GPS is available to initiate Smart RTH. The aircraft will then automatically return
to the last recorded Home Point. Use the remote controller to control the aircraft’s speed or altitude to
avoid a collision during the Smart RTH process. As the aircraft returns, it will use the primary camera to
identify obstacles as far as 300 m in front, allowing it to plan a safe route home. Press and hold the Smart
RTH button once to start the process, and press the Smart RTH button again to terminate the procedure
and regain full control of the aircraft.
Low Battery RTH
Aircraft
The low battery level failsafe is triggered when the DJI Intelligent Flight Battery is depleted to a point that
may affect the safe return of the aircraft. Users are advised to return home or land the aircraft immediately
when prompted. The DJI GO 4 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 a ten-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 DJI GO 4 app, and is described below:

Precision Landing
The Phantom 4 Advanced / Advanced+ automatically scans and attempts to match the terrain features
underneath during Return to Home. When current terrain matches home point terrain, the Phantom 4
Advanced / Advanced+ will start landing immediately to achieve precision landing. The DJI GO 4 app
will show a terrain feature mismatch prompt if matching fails.
Precision Landing performance is subject to the following conditions:
a) Home point is recorded upon take off, and cannot not be refreshed during ight.
b) Aircraft must take off vertically. Take off altitude must be greater than 7 meters.
c) Home point terrain features remain largely unchanged.
d) Home point terrain with no distinctive features will affect the performance.
e) Lighting conditions cannot be too light nor too dark.
The following actions are available during landing:
a) Pull throttle down to accelerate landing.
b) Moving the control sticks in any other direction will stop Precision Landing. The Phantom 4
Advanced / Advanced+ will descend vertically and Landing Protection will remain active.

The aircraft cannot avoid obstruction during the Failsafe RTH when the
Forward Vision System is disabled. Therefore, it is important to set a
suitable Failsafe altitude before each ight. Launch the DJI GO 4 app, tap
GO FLY and tap to set the Failsafe Altitude.
If the aircraft is ying under 65 feet (20 meters) and Failsafe (including
Smart RTH, Lower Battery RTH ) is triggered, the aircraft will first
automatically ascend to 65 feet (20 meters) from the current altitude. You
can only cancel the ascending by exiting the Failsafe.
Aircraft automatically descends and lands if RTH is triggered when the
aircraft ies within a 65 feet (20 meters) radius of the Home Point. Aircraft
will stop ascending and immediately return to the Home Point if you move
the left stick if the aircraft reaches 65 feet (20 meters) altitudes or beyond
during Failsafe.

If you move the left stick after the aircraft rises above 65 feet (20
meters) but below the pre-set Failsafe RTH altitude, the aircraft will
stop ascending and immediately return to the Home Point.
Aircraft
Obstacle Avoidance During RTH
Aircraft can now sense and actively attempt to avoid obstacles during RTH, provided that the lighting
conditions are adequate for the Forward Vision System. Upon detecting an obstacle, the aircraft will act
as follows:
1. The aircraft will use the primary camera to identify obstacles as far as 984 feet (300 meters) in front,
allowing it to plan a safe route home.
2. The aircraft decelerates when an obstacle is sensed at 49 feet (15 meters) ahead.
3. The aircraft stops and hover then start ascending vertically to avoid the obstacle. Eventually, the aircraft
will stop climbing when it is at least 16 feet (5 meters) above the detected obstacle.
4. Failsafe RTH procedure resume, the aircraft will continue ying to the Home Point at the current
altitude.
5 meters
300 meters
15 meters
The Obstacle Sensing function is disabled during RTH descent. Proceed with care.
To ensure the aircraft returns home forwards, it cannot rotate during RTH while the Forward
Vision System is enabled.
The aircraft cannot avoid obstacles above, beside, or behind the aircraft.
Landing Protection Function
Landing Protection will activate during auto landing.
1. Landing Protection determines whether the ground is suitable for landing. If so, the Phantom 4
Advanced / Advanced+ will land gently.
2. If Landing Protection determines that the ground is not suitable for landing, the Phantom 4 Advanced /
Advanced+ will hover and wait for pilot conrmation. The aircraft will hover if it detects the ground is not
appropriate for landing even with a critically low battery warning. Only when the battery level decreases
to 0% will the aircraft land. Users retain control of aircraft ight orientation.
3. If Landing Protection is inactive, the DJI GO 4 app will display a landing prompt when the Phantom 4
Advanced / Advanced+ descends below 0.3 meters. Tap to conrm or pull down the control stick for 2
seconds to land when the environment is appropriate for landing.
