Pre-Flight Checklist/Tips & Tricks/Notes

(Big thanks to everyone for some very good ideas & additions)

Inspection

(Someone has to do it)

- Remote Control (TX), Smart Battery(Battery), Range Extender(REx) and Smartphone(Phone) are fully charged.

- Attach Propellers Guards. Not recommended, unless you have good reasons to use them (they’re “ok” if you are

learning to fly); Prop Guards - Pros and Cons

. They are known to enhance a wobbling state when hovering or

descending effect called Vortex Ring State; DANGER Turbulence Ahead

. Also, watch out for the screws. The long

ones are ONLY for the Props Guards!!! Short ones are the normal one to use. One last thing to know: Props Guards

will reduce your flight time by up to 4 min.

- Turn motors shafts with your fingers and verify they are smooth without excessive play or binding. Check the

“Preventive Maintenance Checklist” section for more info.

- Propellers are mounted correctly: black on the black marked shaft, silver on the silver one. Check if not broken or

worn. Run finger along leading and trailing edges. Flex both Blades to check for hairline cracks. NOTE: When

installing brand new props, make sure you did not get a defective one: if it seems to go only half way on the shaft, it

is defective. Replace it! Check this out: WARNING: Watch for defective Phantom 2 Propellers

- Landing Gears are secure; not cracked/broken/loose. Compass is firmly attached, cable in place.

- Micro-SD card has been inserted and is formatted. (Do not insert or remove while Phantom battery is On).

Optimally, you should use a Class 10 Micro-SD card when filming HD videos.

- Damping absorbers are in good condition, not broken or worn. Anti-Drop pins are in place and locked.

- Remove Gimbal Clamp and Camera Lens Cap. (ALWAYS Remove Gimbal Clamp BEFORE powering On).

- Gimbal is functioning as normal; Camera is secure and moving normally. Camera lens isn't dirty, spotted,

smeared. Check condition of Gimbal/Camera black ribbon cables. Look for tears or signs of wear.

- Battery is not swollen, leaky or damaged in any way. Contact needles and pads are clean.

- Make sure GPS on Phone is ON (to lock the location of Pilot). Set the Phone to “Flight Mode/Do-Not-Disturb” mode,

if you like (to block phone calls/texts). It is recommended to “Forget” any other WiFi networks in range, especially

when flying in small areas. Also make sure the audio is on: you want to ear the battery low alarm warning!

- Note: Some Android devices do not allow for both a Wi-Fi connection and a mobile data connection at the same

time. When trying to connect to 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+ Wi-Fi 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 uncheck the “Auto network switch”. You might see a warning that indicates the Internet connection

is unstable this message can be ignored.

- Be sure to watch: Pre-Flight Checks on your DJI Phantom - What to look out for

Power UP (You’ve checked all your batteries, right?)

- Make sure S1 and S2 are in the Top position AND Gimbal Clamp/Camera Lens Cap have been removed.

2. Remote Control. 1 Beep = CE mode (range ~ 400m) ; 2 Beeps = FCC mode (range ~ 800m).
