There are two ways to exit ActiveTrack:
1. Press the Intelligent Flight Pause button on the remote controller.
2. Pull the pitch stick backward.
After exiting ActiveTrack, the aircraft will stop and hover in place, at which point you may choose to start a
new mission or bring the aircraft back to the Home Point.
Vision Positioning and Obstacle Sensing System
The DJI Vision Positioning System uses ultrasound and image data to help the aircraft maintain its current
position. With the help of Vision Positioning, your Phantom 4 Pro/Pro+ can hover in place more precisely

Calibrating Sensors
Vision Positioning and Obstacles Sensing sensors that are calibrated on delivery. However
these sensors are vulnerable to excessive impact, hence it will require calibration via DJI
Assistant 2 from time to time. Follow the steps below to calibrate the camera when the DJI
GO app prompt you to do so.
Detection Range
The detection range of the Vision Positioning and Obstacle Sensing System is depicted as follow. Note
that the aircraft cannot sense and avoid the obstacles that are not within the detection range.
Using Vision Positioning
Vision Positioning is activated automatically when the aircraft is turned on. No further action is
required. Vision Positioning is typically used in indoor environments, where GPS is unavailable.
Using the sensors that are built into the Vision Positioning system, the aircraft can hover precisely
even without GPS.

Assisted Braking from Obstacle Sensing System
Powered by the Obstacle Sensing System, the aircraft will now be able to actively initiate breaks when
obstacles are detected direct ahead of the aircraft. Note that Obstacle System works best when light
condition is ideal and the obstacle does not have feature-less pattern. In addition, the aircraft speed
cannot exceed over 14 meter/second so that the aircraft can break and stop at the safe distance.

Remote Controller
5HPRWH&RQWUROOHU3URÀOH
The Phantom 4 Pro/Pro+ remote controller is a multi-function wireless communication device that
integrates the dual frequency video downlink system and aircraft remote control system. The 5.8 GHz
video downlink is recommended in city to resist interference, while the 2.4 GHz is good for transmission
distance in the open area. The remote controller features a number of camera control functions, such
as taking and previewing photos and videos, as well as controlling gimbal motion. The battery level is
displayed via LED indicators on the front panel of the remote controller.
Compliance Version: The remote controller is compliant with local compliance and regulations.
Operating Mode: Control can be set to Mode 1 or Mode 2, or to a custom mode.
Mode 1: The right stick serves as the throttle.
Mode 2: The left stick serves as the throttle.
To prevent transmission interference, do not operate more than three aircrafts in the same area.
Using the Remote Controller
Turning the Remote Controller On and Off
The Phantom 4 Pro / Pro+ remote controller is powered by a 2S rechargeable battery that has a
capacity of 6000 mAh. The battery level is indicated via the Battery Level LEDs on the front panel.
Follow the steps below to turn on your remote controller:
1. When the remote controller is turned off, press the Power Button once. The Battery Level LEDs will
display the current battery level.
2. Press and hold the Power Button to turn on the remote controller.
3. The remote controller will beep when it is turned on. The Status LED will rapidly blink green, indicating
that the remote controller is linking to the aircraft. The Status LEDs will glow solid green when linking is
complete.
4. Repeat Step 2 to turn off the remote controller.
