    I believe some phantom 3's do come with intelligent obstacle avoidance systems and that's called an observant and careful pilot. Some don't come with this feature.

    More voltage does not mean more flight time. It means more power. Flight time is related to how many watt hours the battery is.

    • @jasonharris630
      @jasonharris630 9 років тому

      Maximo he's a fool that doesn't understand capacity and voltage. He named not one single legitimate con for the phantom 3.

    • @soulstice69
      @soulstice69 9 років тому

      Jason Harris You're a fool. Did you even watch the video? He articulates several cons to the Phantom 3 in great detail...Duhh

    • @jasonharris630
      @jasonharris630 9 років тому +1

      it's $1,260.00 and his con is that there's no collision avoidance? are you kidding me? People flying these goddamn things should be in control of their model at all times.

      Maximo More voltage does NOT mean more power.

    • @minecraftwtihclay
      @minecraftwtihclay 9 років тому

      Maximo More voltage in a battery means more flight time. Voltage is the potential for energy to move and is equivalent to water pressure. Power comes from current, more current means more power. A watt hour is a measure energy used in an hour and yes that is correlated to voltage, current, ohm relating to flight time.

    Great review! I picked up my Phantom 3 Professional last Friday and I couldn't be happier.

  • @paolopizzi5603
    @paolopizzi5603 9 років тому +13

    A cheap but good quality 7-8" Android tablet would be the perfect monitor for the Phantom. You don't have to use your phone (and miss your calls/text msgs) or your larger tablet (which would make the controller bigger, heavier and more cumbersome to use.) Think of it as a dedicated monitor for your drone (hence you don't want to pay too much for it.) Something like the 7" Samsung Tab 4, which now can be easily found on sale for about $120. Yes, it's only 720p, but that's exactly the resolution you're getting from the Phantom's live feed.

    • @georgeerhard1949
      @georgeerhard1949 9 років тому

      Paolo Pizzi Another alternative (low cost) tablet would be the ASUS Memo Pad 8, slightly more than the Samsung, but with more screen area (I have fat fingertips, and don't think flying with a stylus would be all that easy).

    VERY professional review, and just video in general.
    I am thinking about buying either a DJI Phantom 3 Standard or the Professional edition, and this video really helps in making that choice (I am now strongly leaning towards the Professional for that RANGE and Sweet 4K).
    I subscribed just because of this video.
    Strong like.

    I've flown this thing before. It was truly indescribably wonderful! A great friend knew of somebody who owned one of these. She talked to him, and It was scheduled for a Tuesday, but two days before, the procedure occured. Ya see, the weather was GREAT, but hot that day, and I'd just gotten back from Church, and got on my ventilator, and was about to lie down to sleep, but then I got a call, and within an hour, I was on my way to the drone flight operation site. I took the drone through two flights, using two batteries up, and IT WAS EPIC!!

    I watched this review, plus others, and it really helped me make the decision that the Pro 3 was what I wanted. I've never flown anything and the first day I had no problems flying it in the "Beginner" mode for 2 flights and the following day I flew it to 400 feet and about 1000 feet away without any problems. I'm very impressed with the video quality and look forward to getting some great video and stills in the future. Thanks again :-)

    I came into some "extra" money about a year and a half ago so I splurged and bought a Phantom 3 Pro. Mind you, I'd never flown a drone before but I was very interested. The photography capabilities and ease of operation convinced me that this was the machine I needed as a newby. I still haven't flown it but I am working my way up flying inexpensive models to develop the basic skilss it takes to not fly the thing off to Never Never Land. This video is very informative and helps to prepare me for my maiden voyage.

  • @airfoil
    @airfoil 9 років тому

    Easily the best Phantom 3 reviews I have seen. The depth of the information provided in this video is something I haven't experienced so far. Sure, you are speaking fast to shorten the length of the video but I never had a problem understanding what you're saying and never needed to rewind. Just one question that I'm trying to find an answer to; what is the battery life of the controller itself before it needs to be recharged?

    First off your video reviews have helped me so much. Like you, I have done a ton of video projects. I know for a 20 min video takes days and hours of time. never mind GB of hard drive space. thanks so much for you Advanced Honest Input. 10 out of 10 THANKS A MILLION!

    Excellent review. From the standpoint of a person who has used DJI products from the Phantom 1 through the 2+ vision, it is good to see an honest appraisal of this new product. Still wary of the Inspire (too many moving parts), but may have to shelve the Ph1 for the 3. Hate the fact the camera is dedicated, but will save time in editing I suppose from the GoPro and Adobe software I currently employ.

    See this is what I like, a review by someone with an unbiased point of view. I tell developers this all the time, "Don't review your own products!" Apple is known for this. They have fan clubs of people who are madly in love with their products and try to compare their products with Microsoft, 99% of their reviews are going to tell you to "Go Apple!". Pharmaceutical companies do the same thing. How can you trust that a new pill is safe for humans when the very people reviewing it are a part of that corporation? It doesn't make sense. You NEED a third party. So watching a review like yours was refreshing. Thanks man.

    Hey I need some help I just bought my new phantom 3 professional and I charged it all up and downloaded the app and when I went to open the app it connected to the drone but I was not getting a live feed of the drone. Also I had all control of the drone but I was just not getting a live feed and at the top it said no signal in red
    Please help

    Nice review. How sturdy is this drone? Is it well-built that it can withstand minor crashes? What happens if it crashes in water? Thanks.

    Thanks for the video. How does this drone work in windy conditions ( 10-20 MPH winds ) ? If the drone is around 1 mile far and the weather turns bad ( clouds with small rain ) will it RTH if GPS is hard to acquire ? Can we make a ground path and the gps will follow it and return to it initial point ( way points ) ?
