Fantastic video. I expect sales of these to triple after people see this video! I just bought a camera that was $1300 and it doesn't fly around or create any nicer footage!
+TAOFLEDERMAUS Sup jeff
What's Up Jeff haven't seen a video in a while
and the 10year anniversary makes it almost 300$ cheaper for a limited time. I said fuck it and bought the P3 Advanced :) best thing is,I will still be able to sell it for a very good price in a few years :) if I will ever sell it I don't know . I doubt it .
oh just for the love of God buy it on Amazon or something...do not buy it from DJI. You don't want to wait a month if something broke and it wasn't your fault.
Ultimatevapor918 I just uploaded one today!
Went from a F450 quad to a phantom pro a few months back. Best move ever. You guys are right, the Go App / extreme camera control while flying is what makes this a clear winner over a flying gopro. Keep up the good work guys!
Best description ever of the phantom! This is what a lot of people new to multis need to hear ! you can not compare a phantom to any 3DR products because phantoms are nice but very limited,new pilots don't understand opensource and get a 3DR quad mess with settings they know nothing about and wind up with a horrible experience! Great job as always, You guys are the best!!! GOD BLESS YOU & YOUR LOVED ONES!!
For aerial photography/videography the Phantom P3 is amazing. I bought mine partly for filming, partly just to enjoy sight-seeing FPV with a HD digital downlink, as it's so much sharper than the analogue FPV I've been flying for five years. I mean I can see detail I just cannot make out with my other fixed wing and multi-rotors. I love flying this just sitting in a folding chair and checking the view (I use a full hood to keep all light off the iPad mini screen).
By the way, it's NOT a wifi download link like they say in this review, it's a specialised DJI 2.4ghz Lightbridge unit. Only the P3 Standard uses wifi, which has limited range by comparison. The footage is so good played back on our big TV that my wife was just slack jawed in amazement, like watching a Hollywood movie. Seriously, it's that good. When you stop in mid air, it looks like the camera is bolted to a balcony up high or something, even on windy days.
But as they say, it's not a model plane or multi-rotor and is kinda lame to fly by comparison to an FPV glider or racing mini-quad. It's really a full sized aerial camera and a damn good one for the money.
I got the chance to fly one for a friend, right out of the box, and it worked perfect, and gets you pro footage right away.
the price was worth it, just for light bridge alone.
it was a windy day, but it did not matter. this model 3 does everything the inspire does, that you really need.
A very honest and non bias video guys.. I think I'll be sticking to my Knuckle quad, the amount of times I had a hard landing... I just change the wooden booms....
The Phantom 3 Advanced is on sale for $799. No other drone can close to what it offers for anywhere near that price. The only main difference between the P3A and P3P is the 4K video which most people don't use anyway since most monitors can't output 4K (except newer ones). the Advanced camera has been updated to 2.7K (2704x1524) which is still higher than most will use.
For those of you who don't use or like the fruit company products you can buy a new model Nvidia Shield tablet that works great with the Phantom 3 series and it even has an HDMI out so you don't need the $100 add-on from DJI to output to goggles like the Headplay or any other monitor. It also can output 4K video and runs without overheating like the fruit devices do in the summer and start dropping frames or slow way down. But the best thing about it is the $199 price at Amazon, no problems with the Go app, or 3rd party apps, works okay in sunlight, and it works right out of the box without worrying about changing settings or closing down factory apps. I've used it for a few months now and couldn't be happier and also sometimes use the Headplay goggles on my P3P.. So far not one app crash and have flown quite a distance away with no dropped frames or pixelation.
Love my P3 Pro!
One correction: Only the buttons on the back of the transmitter (C1, C2) are customizable, and then only with certain functions. For me, having one swap between FPV and map, and the other flipping the camera straight forward / straight down works really well.
They also have 5 versions of the Phantom 3 now not just the couple he mentioned.
+Dennis Dunbar no,there is Pro,Advanced,Standard and 4k (exactly like Standard but with 4k)
+Tomi that was sarcasm but thanks. Lol
I love the experience of flying my P3 Advanced. I learned on RC planes, had a 3D helicopter and I still really enjoy this thing. I can't get over how smooth it flies, it's awesome. Also you can put the camera in FPV mode which limits the gimbal and gives you more of an FPV experience.
My JROTC unit got one from the Air Force. Great footage from it. Updates can be a pain in the neck, but it works great.
I've owned the Phantom 3 Professional for 8 months now and love it! The only downside for me has been the firmware updates. I can't seem to get my P3 to work as good as when I first bought it. I keep getting "Signal Loss" errors. Didn't have any in the beginning! Keep up the good work guys!
I know right.. I had a problems for weeks where the app would crash on me as soon as i connected it to the remote. They did fix it, but with a product like this where you NEED the app to do anything, it should be nr1 priority.
Awesome video! For the "experience" thing, I have to say that I bought on 2008 an E-Sky Lama V4 expecting it to be easy to fly and designed for noobies, the thing is never achieved a real "flight" with it, only frog-like flights like, launch, move 1 meter randomsly, land. so it was uncontrollable, even indoors!
Last week I bought an used DJI P2 with H3-3D and a GoPro Hero4 Black. 5 minutes was the time necessarily to learn to fly it, today I achieved my first 120 meters high flight with FPV, it was the best experience I had with RC Flying, and look, I looooove RC, but it took me 8 years to try it again just because I had a shit experience with the first helicopter and felt like throwing money in trash!
So, for me, I really recommend a Phantom for beginners, it will fly easy, and with that, you will learn how control your drone before trying some Pro stuff...
I think you don't have to learn how to drive in a 1000HP Dragster, maybe a Prius would do a better work at it, and then, when you fill safe, try some more Handy...
Well, that was my 2 cents in this subject, bye guys!
Great vid as usual. Ref the flying bit Alex, if you download the Nazam software you can plug the quads mother board into your pc and change the flight restrictions. I'm a club and BMFA instructor/examiner and have been flying RC for 30 years and this Phantom is a real handful with no restrictions and great fun to fly.
im a photography so im buying the phantom 3 but i just bought a syma x5c to learn and its so fun because know i get the feeling of flying whith ky syma and soon get amazing photography
Guys, great review. The only thing you left out was mentioning the technology that really sets the Phantom 3 Pro apart from all the others, it's not just the app (which is good). Phantom 3 Pro does not use Wifi, as you stated. The Phantom 3 Advanced and Pro versions have a clear technology advantage using DJI's proprietary Lightbridge communications, which uses the same 2.4Ghz frequency, but it's NOT WIFI. Lightbridge is good for over 2 miles, when other drones using Wifi are lucky to get 1/2 mi. unless you're over water or in the desert with no obstructions or wifi interference. Lightbridge is what it's all about, it gives a HUGE jump in distance capability, and it SETS YOU FREE! All others without Lightbridge get old quick, very quick, and they become worthless very quick since anyone "in the know" wants the superior distance capability of Lightbridge.
Have you guys checked out the litchi app for the phantom? In my opinion it is packed with features that outdo the DJI Go app. Focus mode is the best, pick a point and the gymbol will adjust itself to keep it centered. Not to mention how amazingly cool ground-station is!
This is a great review and covered really well! We love all your content guys, and hope you keep up the great work! We love our Inspire and wondered about picking up a Phantom as well, and it may be in our near future =^)
I love your videos! Cool too see you have commented on a FliteTest video!
Thanks Shane!
The repair issue is why I stuck with a phantom 2. I have done tons of upgrades and repairs. The phantom 2 still uses modular components where the phantom 3 is all on one board. Good video by the way.
Superb video bang on point. I did exactly as you advised pre this video and bought a small mode 2 quad to learn the flight characteristics so when I switched to the phantom it was a super docile platform to discover aerial photography
2 years after made this video, I still have my p3s and actually learnt a couple of things from this video! Of course I'm looking to upgrade but it has to be said the old Phantom 3 isn't that bad overall are they?!
Mine's just for aerial photography so it suits me very well - just the standard has absolute crap WiFi range which is the only reason I'm thinking of changing plus it only has a 2.7 k camera not 4K.
Bought the 550 kit and put it together piece by piece, it flys a Sony alpha, and has lightbridge with programmable waypoints. I have FPV on another small gimble. I built this in 2013 instead of buying the phantom because of upgrade limits. later I acquired a used phantom from Jimmy (margaritaville) Buffett's crew just to have one. I now have the Yuneec Q 4k, and love it because it's not a DJI and is different in that it doesn't fit the "bad drone" image caused by people making poor choices.
Now that you have had time with both the phantom 3 and the inspire 1, you should do a video comparing the 2.
What make one better than the other and when.
This video should be MANDATORY for anyone looking for a DJI or any ready-to-fly quadcopter. It's basically a whole other hobby: aerial photography, as opposed to building and flying RC aircraft. Loved the smartphone analogy!
Very good, comprehensive review, guys!
Also, speaking of frame rates...y'all were posting episodes in 1080p60 for a while there. When did you switch back to 30fps? I think I prefer the lower frame rate.
Wow! This is an eye opening experience on DJI. I never knew much info about DJI copters. I sure learned a load in this great video. The operator is very well spoken on this product. I fly 450 and mini 250's for 2 years now so that is saying something about this machine and the photo pro opportunities Thanks.
Well done. Thank you! I may wait to see if there's a 4 out soon but will have one in my photography arsenal for sure this year.
About the thing you called "Live stream preview" (Re-playing your footage while still in air): I think you may have got it wrong. I Believe the app has a cache setting turned on by default, so the app is constantly saving a local 720p copy of the live stream every time you record or take photos. So it really uses storage on your phone/tablet, but you can limit how much it is allowed to use and it automatically deletes old stuff when the limit is reached. You can also disable the cache function, but then you won`t be able to watch the "live stream preview".
The good thing about the cache function is if you crash your Phantom into a lava lake, or something else that makes your Phantom irretrievable (or destroys the memory card completely), you can still have footage of what happened.
On my android phone this is true, but when i use my ipad mini i can not watch the videos when the phantom is turned off. Not from the gallery button at least.
Aha, I only have an android device
Woah man!! I love that flight crash into the intro graphic.
As usual, EXCELLENT video, I feel like I really know something about the New P3P.......with that said, hopefully you are/will be doing a similar quality review of the NEW Yuneec Q500 4K and there app.
+Michael Aguirre It is unlikely that we will do a review of the Q500 but we would like to test the sense and avoid tech on the Typhoon H. We have always been fans of the GCO3+ 4K camera, and the Typhoon look like some really interesting competition for the Inspire 1 in price point/features. -Austin
@@FliteTest how do u stream to RUclips. i get fail to login error. I'm flying the phantom 3 professional and using an Asus tablet or my Galaxy s9+ I've tried my wife's RUclips account and i het the same message. If u have any ideas on how to fix it please message me
Absolutely AWESOME overview of the Go app and P3P review. Great job as always guys.
I'd say the bebop 1 is a good learning quad, cause of how easy you can replace parts and learn about them
You guys should dig into a pixhawk and 3dr solo. Awesome equipment and machine, would like to know what you guys think about them
As always - another great, honest review.
Your comment about using the Phantom is similar to 'pushing around a camera in the sky' is very true.
Well done guys. Enjoy the winter. I don't envy you.
+creativecroc Brrrrrrrrr. :)
I must say with no disrespect to everyone else's review on this , you're the best to date easily explained brilliant review thanks guy's
+Dji Leon Wow, thank you so much.
Alex worked really hard on this episode (and it's something that is traditionally out of our wheelhouse). I'll definitely pass this along :) -Austin
Awesome guys!! wish the taxes for import here in Brazil wasn't too high... but still have hope to get one of these!
It would be interesting to have you compare this against some of the other major contenders in the videographer's quadcopters such as the 3DR Solo and the Blade Chroma. Have you flown either of these quads to see how they compare?
14:00 You can do UHD or sub 4k in 30fps in ntfs. :)
What about the 3DR solo? The big Phantom competitor :P I would like to see it in your show
Great review, correct me if i'm wrong but i don't believe you mentioned the fly or video range. That could be something important to some of us 😊
+Gavin The Standard model uses a wifi downlink that has (I think) about a 500 metre range. DJI state that the Advance and Pro models are good for around 2 kilometres, depending on the radio noise floor in your area of operations. Of course, 2 kilometres and more are out of visual range of the person who is spotting for you and so may be illegal (and dangerous in built up areas). Which is a problem for all FPV operations. Unfortunately a lot of newbies will buy these and some will do silly things, which does endanger the hobby.
Thanks for the reply
could you guys do a "tips and tricks" to switch from stabilised quadcopter flying to acro/rate flying, I'm having an incredibly hard time switching over and i'm sure many others are too :D
Great vid on the Phantom, however some things you guys forgot to mention. 1st thing there is a newer version of the phantom 3 series that has a 5.8 downlink instead of the HD and they are introducing that at a lower price.The Phantom3 4k is 799.00 which is a phenomenal price. The P3 standard is now 499.00 which I'd say is a hell of a intro quad.
+Donald “NOT PLAYING1970” Byrd Right you are, sir!
This is not the review we wanted but this is the review we needed 💯 thank you
great review - lots of detail that I've not heard anywhere else.
just need to be aware , lots of Firmware updates to Quad / Tx and even Battery needs to be mentioned -
As well as 3 calibrations (IMU, GIMBAL, QUAD)
So, maybe easy to fly out the box, but really you need a bit more info to get it bang on.
The new Phantoms like here are not that interesting - They'll work very well. BUT ... lets retest it after a year ... then a Review would be interesting, or precisely:
- How many times charging did the 4S LiPo last, (I'd like to place an assumption : approx 40 times)
- Is the Phantom still that locked in as it was in the beginning?
For me and my experience this is a nice thing for AP ... but to expensive on the long term (Been through that on the latest Phantom 2).
(my) Reasons:
- paying about 150 bucks for 40 charges is a NO GO (and I treated mine pretty nice, had 5 Lipos)!
- The canopy will by time get "softer" ... making the quad get more jello. (I've got plenty of footage online, beginning to end)
so PLEASE ... do a review after ONE YEAR :)
Bought a P3P today. Its used and will fly with my P4 graciously. In my view? Its still the stronger flyer between the two of them.
Also has up to 3 mile range (although you are supposed to fly line of site) and you can live stream to RUclips while you are flying. 35mph top speed, has follow me, waypoints, and point of interest. Great drone.
+Don Price I read some news a while back that DJI now supports follow me, waypoints and point of interest, but when I updated firmware and app a while ago, I could not find those features. Are those in the DJI app, or do you have to get one of those third party apps?
+FlyByNorway It is built into the DJI Go app. You must switch the radio into F mode and the icon will pop up to the left of the aircraft status bar (Center bar showing GPS status). Once you tap that icon, it will show all 5 flight modes
+Don Price Awesome, thank you!
+FlyByNorway IMO the Litchi app is more dependable for those flights you mentioned than the Go app. I only use the Go app for upgrading and a few things not included with the Litchi app, like camera settings, and calibrating. I've never had an app crash with the Litchi app and can't say the same for the Go app. For protecting a a $1000+ investment the Litchi app is well worth the small cost.
+Flitetest, awesome Video, but can you please review some cheaper quads like the JXD 509G from gearbest(has fpv camera, too)? I know, DJI is the best, but not everyone wants to spent so much money for a copter!
Love your Videos,
Felix - (FT22 works extremly well :-) )
just to share a little information when using the dji go app.For those who flying for the first time, use the simulator. I just found while using the simulator, if you land any where away from the home point and take off again, the app or the program while set that point as the home point . what this mean is ,if you don't know the area which you are flying, you can lost track of the bird. the rth will land the copter @the new home point. Get it?I don't believe there is an option to manually set the home point, ver 1.7...if you accidentally erase your flight path, you will probably have to rely on visuals to return home.
Just bought one. Phantom 3 Pro!!Pro has 4K - Awesome Video. Dont forget the ND filter - A MUST!!!
Do you recommend a solid ND filter that is inexpensive? Thanks!
I use the ND 8. Best allrounder. Cost around $15 AU
Hey just something for you guys at flite test to ponder if you see this. I've been watching your videos for years and loved all your designs and products but haven't ever got any since I bought your tricopter that looks like a bat (can't exactly remember the name) I bought it with all your recommended electronics but things just kept going wrong. I was learning to fly the multicopter and I'd be hovering and one motor would just stop and things would break. I kept doing this buying many new motors, new esc's and boom arms. I've bought new kk2 controllers and it kept doing the same thing. I spent easily over a thousand dollars on it and eventually gave up because I wasn't going anywhere with the hobby. Ever since I haven't bought or built anything and it has just absolutely killed the hobby for me. With the money I spent on it I could have gotten a phantom and nothing going wrong but I was really into the diy it kinda thing. Now I just watch your videos and always think about trying one of your foamboard planes but I just have the horrible feeling the same thing will happen again. I really hope you see this and get back to me some time on your thoughts.
+Jay Edward Hi Jay, sorry to hear you had such a rough experience with the Rotor Bones Bat Bone. That was one of our very first multirotor products and though a lot of people had great success with it, one of the most difficult things to figure out with DIY multirotors... is the electronics. Particularly when starting out it can be very confusing. One of the things we have done since then is to carry electronics that are compatible with all of our designs.
If I may, I would suggest you look at the Tiny Trainer. store.flitetest.com/mighty-mini-tiny-trainer-speed-build-kit/
You will notice that beside the airplane is a power pack option and battery option that will hopefully make it a great experience for you. It is all 100% compatible.
We also have a handy interactive build guide: fr.zone-secure.net/11829/124085/
This is in addition to the regular build videos we do. If you purchase the Tiny Trainer, you will get an email with all of the build video, articles and info about the airplane.
Hopefully you have a rich and rewarding DIY experience with the airplane. I think you will find it a much better place to start then the Bat Bone.
All the best, -Austin
I don't find the electronics confusing at all, I've used esc's, motors and lipos all before when making simple fan cars and things like that. I've even used the kk2 on a fan car to stop it from flipping when turning using its accelerometer. I just have no idea why one motor kept stopping mid flight. I'm very good a soldering and I checked my solders many times and it was all good. I still have a feeling it's the kk2 or kk2.1 that I have used on it
+FliteTest also I don't want to get another trainer because I've already had the hobby zone champ as a trainer than I took the wing off and put a foamboard one on it aswell as servos on the control horns and a new motor and that.... well haha it was a bit of fun for a cheap price
This video was like witnessing poetry. I think y'all hit the nail on the head when it came to people using these tools in the wrong way.
Amazing!!! The guy that's shooting my music video for me bought one of these for most of the footage we're using and this explained to me what it was he was so excited about lol! Now I know what and why the footage is going to be so good! Just the basic footage he's sent me is amazing stuff! So glad HE knows what he's doing and what to get for all this lol!!! I'll just play guitar and fly my little Millennium Falcon around the house haha!
Nice video guys! Been thinking about getting one of these for a while now
A great video, very informative
I have just started flying the Phantom 3 advanced, what an awesome piece of kit. I have just learnt a few new things from your video
So wish my software had the menu button, as you demonstrated. Seems Dji have updated and taken away that feature - not a good move Dji
You should do a review of the Traxxas Aton
Thanks for this... Killer review I'v been looking for weeks for good in depth information on the phantom 3 pro you guys nailed it...
Thanks for the review guys-well presented and concise. Is it possible to FPV the P3 using fatshark goggles?
Cheers.
Well done Flite Test, clear & concise video with understandable technical detail, thank you.
Just a comment on something I saw in the Russa this winte .......would you believe they are using the quadcopters to tow snowboards?! ........way cool you should try it this winter aye!
Good video can you guys make ur mighty minis speed build with rtf kit?
Thank u so much, I have been waiting for u guys to do a review on the phantom 3. I'm actually saving my money to get it
hi the Phantom 3 is amazing I've been flying my phantom 3 advanced but even 1080p is still amazing and beautiful
Love Mine ! Can't beat the Footage you get .
I love my Phantom 3,only downside it has fixed aperture of F 2/8,dynamic range is OK,but this is NOT my Nikon D810,major plus is you will get much more dramatic shots,sure beats getting close to cliff edges for that dramatic seascape photo.....
Great video guys. Thanks for such an in depth review.
Hi guys. We were watching your video today on Phantom 3 Pro Review. The video you showed where you got your Christmas tree caught our attention. We recognized Pine Tree Barn right away. We live in Florida now, but we are from Wooster and know that place well. Where are you guys located in Ohio? Thanks for the info about Phantom 3, but, mostly, thanks for the trip down memory lane. Haha. :-) Bob and Sue
We are currently based out of canton Ohio and we all live in surrounding areas.. I lived in Wooster off of Caldwell drive for a few years and have been to pine tree barn every year for our Christmas tree since I was born:) my parents started going there 30+ years ago.. It has grown a lot and is currently thriving..
Alex Zvada That is very cool. Great place. There was a fun RC club in Wayne County. We belong to one here in Daytona Beach now.
Thank you for "introducing" us to this SEPARATE class of remote controlled flying cameras. They are not hobby or enthusiast class vehicles. DJI and Yuneec and very recently, Parrot are the leaders of this ariel camera class, but there are others joining the ranks. Thanks for sharing...
Beautiful guys, thinking about getting a Phantom 4, but after watching this i might get a Phantom 3 Pro/Adv
I just bought a Phantom 3 Pro, it was my 5th multi rotor. I HIGHLY recommend the Flite Test advice of learning to fly on something before this. My first was a electro-hub kit from Flite Test, then a Y6 scratch built, Tricopter V3, and Tricopter Mini from RCexplorer (David's company) and a 250 scratch build. The phantom has lots of pilot aids, but it is still advisable to have good piloting skills (situation awareness is a big one). Also all the pilot aids make it extremely boring to fly. Boring is great for a camera platform, but if you are looking for FPV goodness i cant recommend enough a tricopter or 250 class quad.
Please remember, you WILL CRASH. It happens to the best of us. I crash the mini tricopter all the time, because it is soooo fun to fly fast, having the skills to fix a multirotor after a crash makes the hobby far more enjoyable.
On GameStop.com
Phantom 3 Pro: $500
Phantom 3 Standard: $500
Phantom 3 Battery: $36
Phantom 3 Bag: $28
Phantom 3 Self-Tightening Propellers: $0.24
just bought a bixler and want to make it haul A##. what set up do you recomend Mr. Bixler? i want to run 4 cells. already bought 30amp esc.
Fantastic review and really useful for someone like me. Cheers guys.
New viewer.
Awesome video. Im looking at a phantom 3 pro to use for fishing to drop baits out further than i can cast. Have you ever done any experiments with that sort of thing.
review the yuneec q500
Great work guys!
Perfect video and great view points. Agree with everything said!
Hey, great video. New subscriber here and I was wondering what the best FPV drone is that would give the feeling of flight as you said. I'm a new drone hobbyist and would love to get a quality fpv quad.
really like the part where you go in detail on the app. those are the things you don't really see a lot in reviews.
In our club we have a member flying the DJI Inspire1. There is a strong belief that since the Inspire transmits the video in the 2.4 range, it has caused interference and some serious plane crashes, with guys flying DSM2. Would you guys be able to comment on this?
Great job guys!
That's some pretty amazing tech right there.
I remember seeing them testing it at Baylands park in May XD
Great video guys. One thing whats the range on the rc and video?
+i8thegovernment The official range DJI operates with under good conditions, is 2 kilometers (approx 1.2 miles). However, last I checked there was youtube videos of people flying 6km/3.7miles and back, and both video and RC quality was still good at 6km, but they had to return so they would make it back on the remaining battery power.
I have personally flown 3 km away, and I did not have any trouble with my RC or live stream connection. But you should have a clear line of sight between the remote and the aircraft, as trees or other objects easily cuts off your connection if they're in the way.
+FlyByNorway Thanks mate. thinking about getting this to add to my collection! The software looks awesome!!!
The phantom 3 came with 2 damping rods already installed, but there is room for 4 total. How many do you recommend or should I use?
Very informative! thanks for taking the time out of your day(s) for this video :)
Completely unrelated to the video, but I have a home built 500 size quad, and i would like to know if I could transfer my electronics from my 500 to a 280? (If I change out the flight board)
Hi guys and a big hello from Australia, Sydney. I have a DJI Phantom 2 vision + at the moment and love it. I am seriously thinking of going up to the DJI Phantom 3 Advanced. Is there much difference between the Advanced and Professional?
I have put a few of my videos on You Tube under the tag Adams Flyovers.
Be careful: Software doesn't work with iPhone 4s, 5 or 5c. My friend got P3 advance, but can't use it until he gets a new phone. Tried cheap Android tablet, but not recognized either.
I thought the Phantom 3 4K was the latest release from DJI. Its almost half the price of the Phantom 3 Pro and shares the same 4K camera and gimbal.
DJI 3 SE or DJI 3 PRO? Looking to shoot videos and take pictures. This is my first drone purchase. Which camera is better?
Good review, Thanks guys!
just watched film rotor dr1 brill film for these rcs and have a star in your crew too also in the film
Now do Yuneec Q500 4K :D
If drone cameras do anything this year - please add ND filters that are adjustable while in the air, as far as I'm concerned ND filters are essential for video
What app did you use to record the screen?
awesome review
they dropped the price for the advance version that has a 2K camera and light bridge tech for $799.00 That is a heck of a deal.
Nice and very helpful video. Thank you!
hey flitetest, im a new subscriber. I am considering getting this as birthday gift, and was wondering if its still relevant... Is it still worth it to buy this model? i know both the 4 and mavic is out now. Should i just wait until this or the newer models drop in price? Im thinking about some other stuff instead, but if i do get a drone this one was about as much as my wallet (and my moms too) could handle currently. i found one from b & h for 799. if not, ill get something else and wait till next year. thanks!
Jake Taz Would like to know as well.
The drone hasn't got any worse since the video was made, but it is noticeably worse than the new models. But, for the price, I think it's definitely worth it. I live in the UK and the P3 is about 1/3 the price of the P4 so I'd say buy it and you won't be disappointed! Hope you enjoy your new drone!
Matt Clough thanks, ended up saving for the phantom 4. planning on getting it in april
i never got why people fawn over the phantom series, they are 100% run of the mill quads, they arent overly cheap, they arent overly well designed (not to mention the software isnt their work for the most part).
all it is is an almost finished package, it is "easy"(as long as what you want is what it was designed for).
yuneec, walkera, quanum, this class of quad is filled with competent (not saying better) products at a similar price yet everyone seems to be praising DJI as some sort of better alternative.
i own phantoms and they arent special, they certainly dont provide professional quality video, that requires better grading options and raw recording so the shots can be color matched to your other cameras.
