Mo de 2 : The right stick is mapped to throttle channel.
The range extender and mobile device holder is already mounted on the remote controller. Twist mobile
device holder to face outwards and fix in position to prepare for mobile device installation.
It is recommended not to use oversized mobile devices (e.g. iPad), which cannot be placed into the

2. Set the S1 and S2 switches to the upper most position and all sticks at mid-point.
5Preparing the Remote Controller
The PHANTOM 2 VISION+ remote controlleris a wireless communication device that uses the 5.8GHz frequency
band. The link between the remote controller and aircraft isalready established before delivery.
The remote controller default is set to Mode 2 and CE compliance before del iv er y. Both the operating mode and
compliance version can be configuredin PHANTOM RC Assistant Software. Please referto <PHANTOM
RCAssistant> and <ComplianceConfiguration> for details.

5.7 Compliance Version Configuration
The compliance version can be reconfigured by twisting the potentiometer knob (See the following diagram) on
the back of the remote controller using a flathead screwdriver. For CE compliance, set the remote controller to CE
compliance by carefullyturning the potentiometer knob to the full counter clock-wise position.For FCC compliance,

damaging the potentiometer knob. Do not apply too much force during this adjustment. Also be
sure to use the correct sized screwdriver.
( 2) CE compliant devices have an effective communication range of 300 meters in open spaces due
to power limitations. Be sure to watch your fight distance as the PHANTOM 2 VISION+will
enter Failsafe mode (auto-landing or go home and land) if it fliesbeyond this range.
( 3) FCC compliant devices have an effective range of 500 meters in open spaces. Be sure to watch
your fight distance as the PHANTOM 2 VISION+will enter Failsafe mode (auto-landing or go
