In Depth Look at the DJI Phantom 3 Controller Modes

Показать описание
If you're ever wondering what the heck the switches on your DJI Phantom 3 controller do then this video is definitely for you. Along with telling you what the switches mean and when they're used, I also show and test every mode. This includes Point of Interest mode (POI), Waypoints, Home Lock (HL), and much more.

*FAQ's (Frequently Asked Questions)*

Q: What does the S2 switch do? You didn't talk about it much in this video?

Q: What app are you using? Is this the DJI Go app or Litchi App???
A: In this video I was using the standard DJI Go [Free] app from the iOS app store.

Q: What phone are you using?
A: I'm using an iPhone 6s.

Q: I've tried everything and the button is just not showing up on my screen. What should I do??
A: Are you using an android device? Sadly, a lot of Android users have commented saying that these features aren't available on the app from the Google Play Store:(. If you have an iOS device I would suggest giving that a spin as it would more than likely have all the features I showed in this video considering I used an iPhone 6s.

Q: Do all of these features work on the Android app? I'm having troubles getting it to work.
A: Currently according to some people, some of the features I showed in this video are only showing up in the iOS app but...I'm not so sure as I don't own a phone running Android so I couldn't say if they work fully or not. If you're reading this, and are able to do the things I showed in this video on the Android side, don't be afraid to leave a comment below letting me know if it works!

Q: How do I turn off beginner mode?
A: Launch camera view on the DJI app. Then, in the top right hand corner click on the 3 dots which is the settings. After that, click on the tab that is "General Settings" which is the tab that looks like a little drone. Finally, scroll down until you find the toggle "Beginner Mode"...make sure this is toggled to off.

I decided to go with P3S because of your videos, i got mine a week ago and after watching, learning your ideas and tutorials. I and my family did our very first flight successfully yesterday. Your right P3S will never disappoint a beginner, even my 9yr old son has no trouble flying it. Once again thank you and appreciate your effort to help others like me. Cheers from Edmonton Canada.

Me when the video starts - “oh cool, he’s at the park”

Me later on in the video - “nevermind that’s his house...”

Carson, I couldn't concentrate on your information thinking in the back of my mind, " how do they keep that lawn so perfectly green!". I think its the biggest, best one I have ever seen, the most perfect color of any residential lawn I have ever seen. What do your parents do for a living? I bet your gardener is rich too. Awesome homestead you got there, very very impressed. I have to watch it again to see what you said about the Phantom Standard. Thanks

Just moved to Spain. Brought my Phantom with me, about 4 hours flight time in 4 years, wanted to familiarise myself again and this old video was spot on. Thanks again.

That clip has been more help to me than any of the others that I have seen, I'm old (nearly 70) and all this wizardry gets me a little lost, I do have an older DJI Phantom as well as the 3 std, if the rain stops I will go out and have a go at it, it will be a good test for my memory, many thanks cheers Dennis

I have to hand it too you...for filming this in action. Flying with your remote then filming with another hand all the while giving a great lesson all simultaneously. For that I tip my hat to you. Job well done and thanks so much!

I know this is an older video but I still wanted to say thank you! I have a phantom 3 standard and am still learning. Your video is well done. Your rate of speech is SO much better than most others I’ve been watching. Most people speak way too fast. Makes for a very frantic feel. All modes very clearly explained. Thanks.

This is the best unistructural video for the Phantom S3, I got one used 2 years ago for $100, came with the hard case, extra battery and extra props. It works perfectly! 2.7K camera is decent. I didn't use it much at all but now have picked it back up and plan to use it much more for offshore fishing videos. Your video is a great refresher course, thank you.

Nice video and I'll say it too, you covered a lot more on the handset than any other video on the phantom 3 standed.

I've seen a hundred plus videos but, yours is the first to address this feature which I thought had to be upgraded with an app.
I just subscribed because you are awesome.
