Return-to-Home (RTH)

Prole

The Return-to-Home (RTH) function brings the aircraft back to the last recorded Home Point. There

are three events that will trigger RTH procedure: Smart RTH, Low Battery RTH and Failsafe RTH.

GPS

Description

Home

Point

The default Home Point is the first location where your aircraft received

strong GPS signals (i.e. the white GPS icon is followed by at least four white

bars ). You can update the Home Point via the DJI GO app. Refer to

Updating Home Point (p. 28) for details.

Smart RTH

Use the RTH button on the remote controller (see RTH Button on p. 20 for more details) or the RTH

button in the DJI GO app when GPS is available to enable Smart RTH. With Smart RTH, you may

control the aircraft’s orientation to avoid collision when it is returning to the Home Point. Press and

hold the Smart RTH button to start the RTH procedure, then press the Smart RTH button again to

exit Smart RTH and regain control of the aircraft.

Low Battery RTH

Low Battery RTH is triggered when the DJI Intelligent Flight Battery is depleted to a point which may

affect the safe return of the aircraft. Users are advised to y back or land the aircraft immediately

when these warnings are shown. The DJI GO app will advise users to return the aircraft to the Home

Point when the low battery warning is triggered. The aircraft will automatically return to the Home Point

if no action is taken after 10 seconds. User can cancel the RTH procedure by pressing on the RTH

button once. The thresholds for these warnings are automatically determined based on the current

aircraft altitude and its distance from the Home Point. If the RTH procedure is cancelled following a

low battery level warning the Intelligent Flight Battery may not have enough charge for the aircraft to

land safely, which may lead to the aircraft crashing or being lost.

The aircraft will land automatically (cannot be cancelled) if the current battery level can only support

the aircraft to land to the ground from its current position. Users can use the remote controller to

control the aircraft’s movement during the landing process.

The figure below describes the behavior of the Battery Level Indicator during different stages of

events.

Failsafe RTH

Failsafe RTH is activated automatically if the remote controller signal (including video relay signal)

is lost for more than 3 seconds provided that the Home Point has been successfully recorded and

the compass is working normally. The operator can interrupt the Return-to-Home procedure and

regain control over the aircraft if the remote controller signal is recovered.

Failsafe Illustration

MATRICE 600 PRO

User Manual

The aircraft cannot avoid obstruction during RTH, therefore it is important to set a

reasonable RTH altitude before each ight. Go to the DJI GO app > Camera View >

> Set Return-to-Home Altitude.

20m

If the aircraft is flying under 20 meters (65 feet) and RTH (including Smart

RTH, Low Battery RTH and Failsafe RTH) is triggered, the aircraft will first

automatically ascend to 20 meters (65 feet) from the current altitude and you

cannot control the aircraft during ascending. In Smart RTH, you can exit RTH to

cancel the ascending by pressing the RTH button once.

20m

The aircraft automatically descends and lands if RTH is triggered when the

aircraft ies within a 65 feet (20 meter) radius of the Home Point.

Aircraft cannot return to the Home Point when GPS signal is weak (

displays red) or unavailable.

The aircraft will stop ascending and immediately return to the Home Point if you

move the throttle stick during Failsafe RTH.

Updating the Home Point

You can update the Home Point in the DJI GO app during flight.

There are two options for setting the Home Point:

1. Set the aircraft’s current coordinates as the Home Point.

2. Set the remote controller’s current coordinates as the Home Point.

RTH Safety Notices

Flight

Once pre-ight preparation is complete, it is recommended to use the ight simulator to learn how to

y safely. Ensure that all ights are carried out in an open area.

Flight Environment

1. Do not use the aircraft in adverse weather conditions including rain, snow, fog, and wind speeds

exceeding 8 m/s.

2. Only y in open areas. Tall buildings and steel structures may affect the accuracy of the compass

and the GPS signal.

3. Avoid ying near obstacles, crowds, high voltage power lines, trees and bodies of water.

4. Avoid ying in areas with high levels of electromagnetism, including mobile phone base stations

and radio transmission towers.

5. Aircraft and battery performance is subject to environmental factors such as air density and

temperature. Be very careful when ying over 8,202 feet (2,500 meters) above sea level as the

battery and aircraft performance may be reduced.

6. The Matrice 600 Pro cannot operate in P-mode within the Earth’s polar regions.

Flight Limits and No Fly Zones

Flight limits on height and distance can be set.

Unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) operators should abide by the regulations from self-regulatory

organizations such as the ICAO (International Civil Aviation Organization), the FAA and their local

aviation authorities. For safety reasons, flight limits are enabled by default to help users use this

product safely and legally.

When operating in P-mode, the height limit, distance limit and No Fly Zones work together to monitor

ight. In A-mode, only the height limit prevents the aircraft from going above 50 meters*.

* The value is set to 120 if the aircraft has ever received a strong GPS signal (i.e. at least three bars are displayed after the

GPS icon) when powered on.

Maximum Height and Radius Limits

Users can change the maximum height and radius limits in the DJI GO app. Once complete, your

Matrice 600 Pro will y in a restricted cylinder that is determined by these settings. The tables below

show the details of these limits.

Warning: Height limit reached.

Max Radius No limit

* The value is set to 120 if the aircraft has ever received a strong GPS signal (i.e. at least three white bars are displayed after

the GPS icon) when powered on.

If you y out of bounds, you can still control the Matrice 600 Pro, but cannot y it further.

If the Matrice 600 Pro loses GPS signal and ies out of the max radius but regains GPS

signal afterwards, it will y back within range automatically.

No Fly Zones

All No Fly Zones are listed on the DJI ofcial website at http://ysafe.dji.com/no-y. No Fly Zones are

divided into Airports and Restricted Areas. Airports include major airports and flying fields where

manned aircraft operates at low altitudes. Restricted Areas include borders between countries or

sensitive sites. The details of the No Fly Zones are explained below:

of which takeoff and ight are prohibited.

3. From R1 to R1+1 miles around the airport, the flight altitude is limited at a 15 degree incline,

starting at 66 feet (20 meters) from the edge of airport and radiating outwards. The ight altitude is

limited to 1640 feet (500 meters) at R1+1 miles.

4. When the aircraft is within 320 feet (100 meters) of a no y zone, a warning message will appear in

the DJI GO app.

Restricted Areas (requires GPS):

1. Restricted Areas do not have an altitude-restricted zone.

2. R miles around the Restricted Area (depending on the regulation) is a no y zone, inside of which

takeoff and ight are prohibited.

3. A Warning Zone is set on the perimeter of the Restricted Area. When the aircraft is within 0.062

miles (100 m) of the no y zone (inside the Warning Zone), a warning message will appear in the

DJI GO app.

Calibrating the Compass

Be sure to calibrate the compass before your rst ight, or else the aircraft cannot work properly. After

that, calibrate the compass when the DJI GO app or the Aircraft Status Indicator prompts you to do so.

DO NOT calibrate your compass where there is a chance of strong magnetic interference,

such as magnetite quarries, parking structures, and underground steel reinforcements.

DO NOT carry ferromagnetic objects such as cellular phones with you during calibration.

Calibration Procedures

Choose an open space to carry out the following procedures.

1. Tap the System Status bar in the app and select Calibrate, then follow the on-screen instructions to

calibrate the aircraft step-by-step.

2. Hold the aircraft horizontally, and rotate it 360 degrees along the central axis. The Aircraft Status

Indicator will emit a solid green light.

3. Hold the aircraft vertically with its nose pointing downwards, and rotate it 360 degrees around its

central axis.

4. Recalibrate the compass if the Aircraft Status Indicator blinks red.

Calibrate the compass after you launch the DJI GO app if you are prompted to do so.

After successful calibration, the compass may become abnormal and the DJI GO app will

prompt you to recalibrate the compass when you place the aircraft on the ground. Move the

aircraft to another location.

The DJI GO app will prompt you to resolve the compass issue if the compass is affected by

strong interference after calibration is complete. Follow the prompted instructions to resolve

the compass issue.

5. Push the throttle stick up slowly to take off or use Auto Takeoff.

6. To land, hover over a level surface, toggle the landing gear control switch to lower the landing

gear, and then gently pull down on the throttle stick to descend slowly.

7. After landing, execute the CSC command or push the throttle stick down for 3 seconds until the

motors come to a stop.

8. Turn off one of the Intelligent Flight Batteries and then the remote controller.

When the Aircraft Status Indicator blinks yellow rapidly during ight, the aircraft has entered

the Failsafe mode.

The Aircraft Status Indicator will blink red slowly for a Low Battery Level warning, and blink

red rapidly for a Critically Low Battery Level warning during ight.

Method 1 Method 2

When using method 2 to stop the motors, the aircraft may rollover if it doesn’t touch the ground

completely. Please use it with caution. Method 1 is recommended for stopping the motors.

user is required to control the yaw motion using a second remote

controller.

Re-alignment

Re-align the yaw angle of the gimbal with that of the aircraft. The pitch

angle remains unchanged during the re-alignment.

A gimbal motor error may occur if the gimbal is placed on an uneven ground because

of impact with ground objects. Be sure to take off from a at, open ground to protect the

gimbal from impact.

Flying in heavy fog or inside clouds may make the gimbal wet, leading to a temporary

failure. The gimbal will recover when it dries out.
