I'll probably get this since j still consider myself a beginner, then upgrade to the inspire 2 if that ever comes out.

Ha ha funny you posted this cause I just got the email about an hour ago about the Standard.. Good job!

does the phantom 3 Standard also have the log color profile? or is this only for pro?

[BanjoBearVA]

Thanks for the informative video! As soon as the firmware update comes out. I'll be using your link.

Thanks for your awesome video.  Regarding the extended flight time, I'm not sure where I saw it but it was said that the motors were made more efficient thus prolonging the flight time.

I notice the standard doesn't have grown facing camera and the camera is controlled by the app and not the controller. This just looks like a phantom 2 vision plus with the WiFi module embedded in the controller. But it has all the power features of the advance version like upgraded motors and more flight time which is a good thing and I know you can increase the range by using a WiFi booster app. And the best thing about it is you get way point, follow me and orbit. These features aren't included in the other phantom 3's. This version of the phantom is eliminate the competition with its longer flight time and features. Light bridge, downward facing camera and glonass are great features but not need to destroy the competition. And if you think about it glonass doesn't improve the return to home its just monitored by more satellite s and the phantom will still land 15 to 20 feet from its take off point and downward facing camera come on now who buys a drone to fly's indoors. Light bridge great option but my fpv picture doesn't have to be in HD. I'm only concern about the stunning video or pictures I capture. If you look at it from this perspective then this was a great one two punch to the competition. And those 30 minute flight time proposed by the competition has never been proven in real world flights and has never been videoed on YouTube so I will never believe that over estimation.

What is lightbridge exactly? Do I really need it?

Tom, in your deals and gadgets store, I didn't see the add-on holder for the iPad Mini that does not come with the Phantom 3 Standard.
I see various models in Amazon and eBay. The ones that expand for the iPad Mini size and connect to the lanyard connector on front of controller are $30. Do you have connections to offer them cheaper?

[estebanfelipecastaneda]

hi tom, im a drone pilot, and i want to start make some professional videos, would you recomend me the standar 3?.
i did not understand, if the follow me, and the orbit mode are being offered by dji phantom 3 standar.

[fbalmori]

Hi. Is it safe to land holding the left stick all way down for long time? Could it turn office? How to land safetly?...

[AVIATORUL]

Hello, I want to help me and me with a question : what is the radius of video transmission ( video signal ) between Dji Phantom drone 3 Standard remote control ? Thanks, Victor

[iraonesss]

Hi...Tom is it true P3S has issue with range ?

[themovietheatre]

I knew this aircraft was coming. just looking at the Professional and Advanced names on the two other aircraft. That's $100 less than the Bebop drone with Skycontroller. Bad news for Parrot.

[wyajiit]

Hey Tom! Is there a way to get the lightbridge on the DJI phantom 3 standard? Thanks!

[majozamudio]

Hello Tom: nice work, congratulations. A question. I get the P3 advanced.
I need to do some boat films. The boat trip takes like 2 hours, so i can´t stay just near the harbor.
From the boat, how can I re-program the home point? Can I do it flying? or I must to catch the P3 and try to re calibrate abord the boat every 3 kms???  
I have 6 extra batteries, its enough (to prevent comments, jejeje)

Regards and I love your sacrifice on this. You´re the best.

Hi
How do I activate the point of interest, follow me and intelligent orientation control features in phantom 3 professional ?
Does it come as a built in feature? Or should I update the software ?
There was a new overall update released 2 ds ago on the 4th of august (1.3) but when I tried to update, the log said it was aborted because it's older or the same as the current firmware !!!
By the way I already updated it to the previous version (1.2.6).

Regards

Hi, I really want to buy the DJI phantom 3 standard, however, I have never flown a drone before and I am scared that I will crash it and it'll break right away. Do you think that i should buy a cheaper beginners drone, or should I buy the DJI phantom 3 standard while it is on sale? Thanks!

[ghpatriot]

I got 1615 meters range with my P3 Standard today out over Lake Michigan. No mods. =)

[hitOVERkill]

thanks a lot got the standard 2days ago and they haven't shipped it yet, so I cancelled it and getting the pro instead!

Wondering about the differences between lightbridge and 720p. Isn't lightbridge also gives 720p?
