Flight
After the installation is completed,it’s recommended to take flight trainings refer to PHANTOM PILOT TRAINING
GUIDE to enhance your flight skills or take adequate flight trainingsessions (such as running simulation or
coaching by the experienced user) before you use the aircraft for the first time. Ensure that you have selected a
proper location and environment for your flight.
Flight Environment Requirement
（
1
）
Do not use the aircraft in the severe weather conditions, which include gale force winds (wind speed
exceeds category 4), snowy, rainy and smog day.
（
2
）
Chose an open filed as the flight field, where no high building may block the flight route. Also the building
with significant amount of steel structures may affect the accuracy of the compass on the aircraft.
（
3
）
Keep your aircraft away from any obstacles, crowds, high voltage power lines, trees or the surface of the
water at all time when your aircraft is in the air.
（
4
）
To eliminate the electromagneticinterferences to the remote controller, ensure that your aircraft is not
operating in the complex electromagnetic environment (such as staying close the base station or radio
transmitting tower).
（
5
）
The aircraft cannot operate within the polar cycles.
（
6
）
Do not flight the aircraft in the no-fly zone specified by the local laws or regulations.
1 Calibrating the Compass
IMPORTANT: Make sure to perform the Compass Calibration procedures prior to the first flight.
The compass is very
sensitive to electromagnetic interferencewhich causes abnormal compass dataand leads topoorflight performance
or even flight failure. Regular calibration of the compass enables the compass to perform at its optimal level.
(1)
(2)
DO NOT calibrate your compass where there is a possibility for the existence of strong magnetic
interference such as magnetite, parking structures, and steel reinforcement underground.
DO NOT carry ferromagnetic materials with you during calibration such as keys or cellular
phones
1.1 Calibration Procedures
Choose an open space to carry out the following procedures. Please watch the quick start video of the PHANTOM 2
for more details on the compass calibration.
