    P3 Standard Pics vs Hubsan 501ss

    Hi all, still having a debate over the pic quality from my fairly new P3 standard. Away on hols over Xmas and done some flights with both. I am certain the pics from the Hubsan are far superior to the P3. I have checked the settings in the P3, but as I am no photographer, they still may be off...

    NEXUS 2012 with DJI GO

    Gave up on it and found a gen 2 Nexus, when I checked the screen resolution of the two, it was a no brainer. The 2nd gen is the go for the Go. lol

    NEXUS 2012 with DJI GO

    Hi all, got the Nexus 2012 to accept the DJI GO app via the APK installer. Nexus lists the app in the apps section and it is also on the home screen, but when I try to open DJI GO it says ''Failed to get resource file. Please check your network connection and retry'' I would have thought if...

    P3 STANDARD PHOTOS

    Thanks to all. The settings I can get to are white bal around 6k, style is custom -2-3-2, color is D Log. Cannot seem to get into the ISO or shutter settings, cannot find them listed in the menu, so maybe that is where I need to look if I could get them. The first pic is from the Phantom...

    P3 STANDARD PHOTOS

    Hi all, maybe just me, but photos from my recently purchased standard don't appear to be as sharp as pics from both of my Hubsan 501s quads. I have checked the camera settings and they are set as per a couple of setup videos I have watched, but maybe I need to learn a lot more about the unit. I...

    stress cracks in rear two arms - warranty question about epoxy

    According to several posts, cracks under the motor mounting is very common, I purchased the metal retro fit plate kit and fitted to my Phantom before it even left the ground due to being advised by several current owners of the machine. Looks like yours has displayed the exact problem I was...

    Nexus 1st Gen tablet

    Hi all, just wondering if anyone is using the Nexus 1st gen tablet for the Phantom 3 standard? I am currently using a 9.7'' tablet and it is simply too large for the controller. Makes it difficult to hold the controller while screen touching functions at the same time. The nexus has only 1 gig...

    Prop protectors with motor plates

    Hi all, would anyone know if the snap on prop protectors can still be used if a set of motor reinforcement plates have also being fitted to the underside of the motors. Or, if there is a certain set of prop protectors that have to be used if plates are also fitted? Had the standard for 3 weeks...

    Still at a loss

    Seeing that you've tried another controller, it has to be in the P3 itself. Best talk directly to DJI, surely they would be able to confirm the fault. If you wait a little while on here, I'm sure someone will be able to offer some help for you also. I wouldn't be opening it up too often if it is...

    Still at a loss

    So, it's no longer in beginner mode, and you have changed the maximum distance measurements in the app? It does come back into controller range when it returns I take it as you still have the quad. lol

    Still at a loss

    Could it be that you have it set to a maximum of that distance in the app? Just a newbie here also, still studying the manual really, had a couple of simple trips, but they are very much a read and remember device, IMO.

    I’m amazed at the durability of the phantom 3.

    Wow, you mean to say electronics are not waterproof? lol Your post should end up in the next promo for the P3.........but I wouldn't push the boundaries any further than what you have done already. Most drones would have gone to god after the trailer smack. Well done!

    Can't activate or confirm my account

    Dunno the reason for this issue, but plenty of posts regarding it, so it is for real and not just user error. Nobody seems to be able to explain what the cause is, but it is very frustrating when you take delivery of a new Phantom and you cannot get it in the sky. Oh well, it gave me extended...
