    Problem with Onboard Video

    I recently purchased a factory refurbed P3 Standard from Newegg - The unit looked completely new, and all the accompanied packaging was unopened. I have a Phantom P1, and know how to use the controls. I synced my phone with the unit, and had to do a firmware update, which was complete. I had...

    Lost signal over water, took a swim.

    Hi, I received my phantom 3 standard yesterday, I was going to fly close to the water and film the beach. I calibrated the compass and had 12 GPS's locked. Out of nowhere, it lost signal and went to ATTI mode. I brought it back, and tried to land it. I was 5 inches above the deck when a wind...

    I got an used P3S and it throws sometimes "RC signal lost"

    Hi people, I'm new to the Phantom family :). I bought a new P3S from Amazon and I received an used/refurbished product. The bags and boxes were open, the drone had 7 flight logs from one month ago in Germany and even the props were dirty/slightly crashed (!!!). Oh, and I could not activate it...

    Customizing the drone body colors

    The P3S is very hard to see in the air if there is an overcast sky, and even harder to get a good visual orientation under that condition. Was wondering if anyone has had experience using a dye to color the two of the motor arms so that the operator can tell which direction the drone is facing...

    Question about Litchi

    Hi All, I have a quick question. I'm new to this, just bought a P3S. I've noticed occasionally the video link drops out after a distance of only about 100 meters. My question is, if I buy the Litchi app, is it possible to upload a waypoint mission to the P3S, have the bird fly completely out...

    Got my first paying gig

    Some background info: I'm a high-level technical professional, but not a professional photographer. I've been droning for about 18 months now, and can fly my P3S and P3P fair-to-middlin' well. OTOH, I'be been editing with Photoshop and Premiere for at least 20 years, and I'm pretty decent at...

    First real attempt - French Chateau (P3S)

    All the small take-offs and fooling around at home aside, this is my first attempt to actually record something decent with my Phantom, worthy of making a short video off it. I recorded this about a month ago near a town called "La Framboisiere" in Centre France during a week stay with family. I...

    Litchi - hovering for a long time before RTH

    I flew my P3S today for about 1km before I lost connection. I couldn't even see it anymore, and I waited, and waited, and waited, till the point that I didn't think I'd get it back. Then when I was about to get in my car to go and look for it, I heard the humming noise above my head, and it came...

    P3S Battery questions: Can this battery be saved?

    Equipment involved: P3S, factory-supplied P3S battery, factory-supplied P3S Charger. Actions leading up to event: P3S was damaged in an accident and had to be sent to DJI for repairs (the battery was not sent with it, per instructions from DJI). The battery was simply set aside in my work shop...

    Any warnings, advice or tips on brand new P3S?

    I am shortly about to unpackage and initialize my brand new P3S, also I am in Australia (CE). But before I go ahead and do so, I would love to hear any advice or tips that may save my butt for down the track. I do plan on modding my P3S, Magic Power?Icarus? DBS antenna and then boosters...

    Having trouble calibrating the compass

    I've had a good read, am stood miles from any metals, the controller, other objects, in an open field that is just mud. I'm wearing zero metal - I'd be naked if I tried any harder! I've successfully calibrated several P4P's, an Inspire 1, a Mavic Pro all in this exact spot. The P3S just...

    Just bought a P3S for £150. Winning.

    I'm a very happy bunny. It's basely flown 4km in a straight line since the previous owner bought it a year ago. I've been flying my P4A and the Mavic Pro a whole lot recently, but saw this pop up on Fb. Couldn't resist. There was all of 60 minutes between seeing the ad and flying it. So...

    P3S Range Tanking! - Time to be Concerned?

    Gonna keep this as short and sweet and hopefully the super human minds here can help. Bought my P3S in Feb. Upgraded FW to 1.8.10 per request. Everything worked wonderfully... Range varied around 3000ft and even achieved a 4900ft with a parabolic antenna. Come today, I can get a blazing 600ft...

    P3S Camera MAJOR overheating

    While shooting a short video today, my camera on my P3S overheated, sort of messing up my shot. Is this anything to worry about or do you think it'll be ok once it's cooled down overnight?

    Remote Controller does NOT work properly!

    Hello there. I hope you can help me. I'm in big trouble after I discovered that my remote controller for P3S does not work as it used to. Both left and right sticks do NOT correspond to directions. I think it's because I put it in a backpack and sticks bumped to other things. I carried it in...

    P3 Standard disappeard

    I've had my Phantom 3 standard for about 2 years now. I did the DBS antenna mod and was testing out some distances using the new antenna. I got a little over confident I was quite a distance out and signal was getting sketchy. It went in to RTH mode I can canceled that once I got a connection...
