    I had many issues with distance/range and having to calibrate the compass as many as 10X before a flight. After email support, they advised me to relink the r/c and bird. Before I was lucky to get 400 ft. in distance, after the relink, I was able to get 1400 ft. before losing control and it...

    Should I send my P3 Standard Back - Gyro Calibrate Needed 10X

    I've had about 30-40 flights in various (12?) locations. This last time I flew was the final straw because I was in the middle of an open area and I kept on having to calibrate the compass before it would let me fly. MORE THAN 10 TIMES !!! Then I was 800 ft. away and about 230 ft. up when I...

    Should I send my P3 Standard Back - Gyro Calibrate Needed 10X

    I'm getting tired of having to calibrate the compass numerous times before some flights. About half the times before a flight I have to calibrate the compass more than once. I wouldn't mind doing once before each flight, but yesterday I had to calibrate it at least 10 times before it would start...

    Weak RC Signal Red Alert message pops up in flight and or before take off?

    I'm having the same problem with the pop-ups. Mine has initiated RTH many times when I was less than 400 feet away. Can someone please tell me what a P3 Standard's max. distance is supposed to be if everything is working properly? Thanks in advance Eric (Mister Softee)

    What happens if you fly from a cliff?

    Next time start the video then pause it..... go to another page or get a cup of coffee and come back. You'll be able to watch the video without a problem.

    HOW TO: Install tablet mount on a Phantom 3 Standard remote controller

    I just made one! Seems BETTER and SAFER that the one that I thought came with this unit. I saw videos where the guy was worried the iPad would/could slip out. This came out AWESOME and VERY SAFE and still adjustabe. Phantom3 by MisterSoftee <== Click Here
