Frequently asked questions
What are the headline DJI Phantom 2 specifications?
DJI Phantom 2 is a ready-to-fly camera-platform quadcopter without an integrated camera. DJI lists a 1,000 g weight with battery and propellers, maximum takeoff weight of 1,300 g, 25 minutes of flight time, 15 m/s maximum speed, 1 km control range, and support for Zenmuse H3/H4 gimbals, optional video downlink, iOSD, and Lightbridge.
What is the DJI Phantom 2 flight-time figure?
25 min. DJI figures use stated test configurations; payload, battery, wind, temperature, altitude, firmware, and battery condition can reduce real endurance.
What is the DJI Phantom 2 transmission or control range?
1 km control. This is an official test limit under the stated regulatory standard, not a permitted operating distance; local line-of-sight and operating rules still apply.
Does Phantom 2 have an integrated camera?
No. DJI documents Phantom 2 as a camera platform. Its manual shows optional Zenmuse H3-2D/H3-3D gimbals and separate camera/video hardware; Vision and Vision+ are different aircraft versions.
Are Phantom 2 and Phantom 2 Vision controller batteries the same?
Do not infer that. The cited Phantom 2 manual lists a built-in 2,000 mAh rechargeable controller battery; the Phantom 2 Vision manual lists four AA batteries for its 5.8 GHz controller.
Can Phantom 2 prop guards always be added to a camera setup?
No. DJI warns that a Phantom 2 carrying an H3-3D gimbal, GoPro and iOSD mini is close to its maximum takeoff weight and does not recommend adding prop guards at that weight.
Does this Wiki page prove current stock, parts, or repair support?
No. This is an official-source model reference. Confirm any current Reboot Hub product, part, compatibility, or service path from the exact live listing or a written support response.
