12.6.2 Using Ground Station

Step 1 Launching Ground Station

Enable ground station feature from DJI Vision app Settings and a disclaimer for ground station prompts. Read the

disclaimer thoroughly before starting to use ground station.

Ensure your mobile device has access to the Internet. Due to the map data required, Wi-Fi connection is

recommended. Internet access is required to cache the ground station map, if Wi-Fi is unavailable, mobile data

service is required. Open the DJI Vision app camera GUI and swipe left to launch ground station. DJI Vision app

cannot connect to your aircraft while it is accessing the Internet. Hence, you may prompt with the warning message

such as “Connection to Phantom Failed”. This message will not appear when your aircraft is re-connected to DJI

Vision app. Map data of your current location will load. You can then drag the map to cache nearby areas for future

use.

Step 2 Setting a Waypoint

Disconnect from the Internet and connect the DJI Vision app to your aircraft. Check that remote control S1 switch is

in

position (position-1) and the upper left corner in ground station display

and wait for the aircraft to

enter “Ready-to-Fly” mode (LED indicator blinking green) before swiping left into ground station. Tap on the map to

place a waypoint. You can place up to 16 waypoints including the Home point. Waypoints cannot be placed beyond

500m from the Home point or inside No Waypoint Areas.
