Review on ๐Ÿš White DJI Phantom 3 Advanced Quadcopter by Nguyn Qu Ph (Nhn) แ Œ

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The purchase brought only positive emotions.

I have been flying for a little over a year, I am very pleased with the device and during this time the software has become noticeably better, more stable, new very interesting functions have been added - flying around an object in circles along a given radius, following oneself, fixing a course, etc. charms needed already with experience; you get a ready-made kit without finishing; I dropped it several times from a small height in the fields and once fell into the forest from about 30 meters - without damage; in terms of flight time, about 25 minutes is enough for a couple of flights, but I recommend immediately taking an additional battery and charging in the car; I would like to have a directional microphone with built-in noise cancellation synchronized with the blades; would add Glonass! A huge request to all pilots - turn on common sense and donโ€™t go where you shouldnโ€™t, otherwise the whole topic will be regulated and then you wonโ€™t take off without a threat from the Ministry of Internal Affairs or the FSB. Do not fly over the Kremlin, military and special facilities, airports, etc., especially avoid injury to third-party people and their cars! I'm saving money for the fourth candy wrapper.

Pros
  • Lightweight, durable, maneuverable, fast, not afraid of even strong winds (although you need to get used to it), easy to manage, flexibly configured, high quality and many video modes, there is raw for photos, many accessories and improvements are available, you can use third-party software with new chips, good communication range even in the basic version, a lot of "smart" chips for an inexperienced pilot, regular software ates, really low video signal delay on the remote control, you can connect video glasses or an external TV set; works great with iOS and Android
Cons
  • The calibration of the built-in compass is constantly lost, before each flight it is necessary to twist it, sometimes several times; not very reliable GPS - worse than in a smartphone, sometimes it gets lost after takeoff and it starts to storm, be blown away by the wind and difficult to land if there are cramped conditions or a slight wind; for launching and landing you need a flat area, otherwise it easily falls and damages the blades; Can't take photos while playing video often does not detect the pressing of the video recording button immediately after the photo and it happened that it flew in vain, without shooting; it happens that it glitches - it shows that the battery is sharply discharged and breaks for an emergency landing in any place, there were very risky moments over the forest or the sea, barely saved; for some reason, the horizon at the camera gets lost even after adjustment and you have to spend precious flight time on reconfiguring; categorically does not accept even light rain, and if it is cloudy you have to be extremely careful, there is no protection against drops and is not additionally placed; does not hold all maneuvers
