Which Will Win? DJI Phantom 3 Standard vs. DJI Mavic Pro Platinum in EXTREME Winds!

[@carsonmtech]

For anyone who is about to comment "WHERE IS THE 4K????" -- KZbin still hasn't fully processed this video because it was uploaded quicker than I typically do. 4K viewing option will be here in 30 minutes or so though so thanks for watching so soon ;)

[@thomasw8499]

just about to tweet at you about that haha

[@EazyRed]

Carson Miller your welcome

[@danieldelgado1941]

I got a phantom professional iConnect the control but nothing is working only the gimbal is telling me to low down the firmware should I have download The Firm that I can fly please let me know thank you

[@brandan648]

I have a mavic pro and I absolutely love it but the phantoms are quite nice too

[@droneshotsantoine1805]

Phantom 4 pro+ much better video quality

[@RoccoGermani]

Love this video. Just did a flight with my spark at the beach in 30+ mph winds. It did just fine and I was really surprised. I also was anticipating that your phantom would be better as larger drones generally are, but I guess we we're both wrong!

[@danodden9783]

The Phantom has a larger body, meaning more surface area, making it more prone to wind.

[@RichardHollowayGaming]

GPS is still on in sports mode, it just disables obstacle avoidance on front

[@erickfgty]

I love both drones

[@JRthepyroguy]

I had the phantom 3 standard. Love it. But got rid because of that same problem with the WiFi single. Now I got a p4 pro. Its awesome. Good video.

[@carsonmtech]

That’s awesome!

[@dentside]

whats a good price for picking up the phantom 3 used?

[@shanafme]

Great video. But I was a bit confused with your description of sport mode... I'm fairly certain that the drone will still continue using the GPS for maintaining position, etc.. when it is in sport mode. Putting the drone in ATTI turns the GPS off (at least with the P3S, not sure if the Mavic has a comparable mode or not).

[@KylesTechChannel01]

Do you have either of these registered with the FAA? It’s like 5 bucks per drone and then you’re supposed to mark them with a license number. I know someone who got seriously fined for flying unregistered.

[@carsonmtech]

I’m FAA Part 107 certified and both of my drones are registered as commercial drones by the FAA. They’re both marked with their respective registration #’s on the inside of the battery compartments!

[@franduncandroneproductions]

Great day today have been out I do put into air at 30 to 40 so go forward and only getting about 260 in distance and it goes onto bringing home why am I not getting further help

[@HAZELELSOBRESALIENTE]

it is necessary to have wifi on the phone to fly the mavics

[@brentdavenport01]

It was an entertaining video, but here's something to think about.... The P3S is much larger, therefore it has more surface area to create wind resistance... It SHOULD be affected more. However, I flew my P3S yesterday with sustained winds of 18 and gusts to 28. It handled that MUCH better than yours did in 10mph winds. The other thing is the braking. Because the P3S is larger and heavier, it's only natural that it takes longer to stop. You're slowing down more weight. I'm not dogging on you, but it's not an equal comparison. It's like comparing a Honda Prelude to a Dodge Ram. It would actually be a closer comparison to do Mavic VS Spark. They are closer in size and profile. Great video though. Keep it up.

[@abitofeverything2254]

What was the wind speed you where flying in

[@heereshchandra9781]

How much battery backup u got in p3 standard, I got 10-13 mins

[@JohnnieV]

How did u get just the HS on the bottom of the dji app?

[@carsonmtech]

Haha that was done by me while I was editing...not within the true DJI Go app itself :)

[@JohnnieV]

Carson Miller pretty good editing then young man.

[@chriss665]

An excellent review Carson, keep them coming please

[@carsonmtech]

Thank you Chris!

[@shawnireland1197]

Good video. All that software & firmware can be adjusted btw.. just in case anyone was wondering. All the settings yaw gain brakeing speed can be adjusted. Even in the firmware the GPS and atti mode can be adjusted at the speed and breaking defaults I wouldn't sujest anyone actually do that unless you understand what your doing. Stock settings are pretty good..

[@kennethbyington1100]

hey Carson. thanks for the video I have the phantom 3 standard. do you trust the camera in flight when you can't see it with your own eyes...im just getting started in flying and get nervous when I lose sight and not trusting the camera...maybe I'm just afraid of losing the copter and not panicking in the process. thanks

[@scott-n-annasrcfun7006]

hi carson your videos are very cool and you info is great except i noticed you kept saying turn off the gps when you goto sports mode.actually the gps is still active in sports mode.you have to goto acro mode to get out of gps but i see no reason to use acro mode when your drone flies 40 mph with gps.

[@A-mechanics-review-4U]

scott-n-anna's rc fun Atti mode not acro....js

[@bizzjoe]

Do you update the firmware much, if at all?

[@carsonmtech]

Yep, all the time pretty much!

[@bizzjoe]

Because some people say if it's not broken don't fix it, so now I'm not sure if I should update or not, I'm new to this, and I haven't even flown my second hand P3-pro yet that I bought recently, and I'm not sure if the previous owner updated either .. I'm very much afraid :-/

[@MrCityJerry]

I saw somewhere that DJI can and will lock your drone making it inoperable, if you do not update soon enough. I update the app and or the drone as soon as an update is available. Some of the updates do fix problems with the previous firmware.

[@K.hablbl]

What phone you use for dji phantom 3?

[@carsonmtech]

In this video, I used the iPhone 8+ but in a lot of my older videos I’ve used the iPhone 6s

[@K.hablbl]

Ok thanks bro! 😊

[@Unocd]

Carson how about Mavic mini vs spark drone in high wind 💨

[@vikke1663]

How much wind Was it

[@acklord7145]

great video. i love drones. just got my first drone a couple weeks ago. i love it. i got the dji phantom 3 standard. the one you (used) to love! but then the big brother mavic came around and it is awesome. lol.

[@jimblv]

Very informative and entertaining video. Great job!

[@MrSmith223]

I want to fly one of these into Jim’s living room with a note that reads: “eat more beets”

[@RomeoTangoLima]

So have the same Phantom 3 Standard, if I was to upgrade what would you recommend? P4P, or go with the Mavic? Or wait and see what DJI comes out with this year..LOL

[@carsonmtech]

I mean if you can hold off and wait, DJI dropped some new drones around this time last year :). If you can’t though, I would absolutely go with the P4P if you can afford it and don’t plan on going on like hiking trips with it because it’s camera is AMAZING! Not that the Mavic Pro’s is bad but it just doesn’t do so hot in lower light but it doesn’t thrive in portability. If you travel a lot, get the Mavic. If not, go with P4P!

[@RomeoTangoLima]

Thanks. I just got the 3 in December, but I can already tell I want something better, but the 3 is awesome. I'll probably hold off and see if they do release anything. Keep up the great work on the videos. I used your videos when I first started droning and they were the best out there.

[@carsonmtech]

Yep, that’s probably the most wise thing to do. Thanks for sticking around. I’m glad my videos have been able to help you out!

[@MrCityJerry]

I believe DJI is set to make an announcement on 7-18-18 probably a new drone. Two short/long weeks.

[@yomango35]

wrong again //:((((

[@andrewscala6006]

Carson... got my new Mavic Pro Platinum today.... flew it in 15-18 mph winds and it was spectacular! Today is 7/24/18 so maybe you were correct about good new firmware that was installed today

[@reyzuna]

I'm not sure if High Winds are something to be aware of, as far as I know up in the sky has more gusty strong wind. For example, if you fly a Kite you notice if there's no wind you can't fly it in an instance, you have to run until it gain height and when it reach the sky it will fly because of the wind so my point is, even there's a strong wind or not on the land where you're standing it will be different up in the sky. The only thing that you'll be caution is if the wind is so strong like there's a storm coming.

[@mark675]

Mavics ace in wind, flown it in really high winds the last few days and its solid despite sending me warnings to land straight away 😂

[@johnbeckley3613]

Great video I appreciate you taking the time to test those I was very surprised at the results because I have heard that mavic Pro is not that good in the Wind

[@solidpnoy]

Great comparison. Gladly, I have both!

[@SVInLikeFlynn]

But to really keep an honest comparison, both drones should be tested at the same time by 2 operators to account for wind fluctuations and sudden wind gusts. I bought carbon propellers for my DJI 3 which are much stiffer than the plastic white ones which I’m sure makes it ever more stable.

[@hilalfalsten4867]

good

[@thinkingai6017]

Love ur vids dude. You should do a drone vid w/ fireworks, now that you have 2 drones. (if u see this post before the 4th of july, 2018)

[@nicholasgransinger1456]

Shadow Drone he already did one a while ago

[@thinkingai6017]

I know... Im asking for another one sir.

[@carsonmtech]

Will do ;-)

[@GordonFreeman.]

Nail the throttle when you start braking in the p3s and it will stop in about 1/4 the distance. Works a little bit with the mavic but not nearly as well. Good vid

[@axelriosAR]

Ilove carson miller videos

[@joppeoffringa9590]

[@felipechavez673]

well it's not fair in mass the mavic is slim and more air compatible and the phantom is not it is bigger

[@MrZpilot]

Good vid, love my P3S😎👍

[@kieranking8657]

Good video very informative but a little scary, wind is my biggest fear when flying my phantom

[@kevinhodges1862]

I have 2 P3S. They are all the drone I'll ever need wind or no wind. The P3S is still great value.

[@repleh82]

Out of curiosity I clicked on the links you provided for shopping for drones from DJI and the Phantom 3 standard is no longer available in my country/region. I live in the US, lol. Good thing I already have one then I guess. Great comparison video BTW.

[@AIMBOT-]

I love drones so much

[@m.i.ddgamer2891]

Hi

[@curiosity2314]

They are both very good at what they do, the Standard is equivalent to a Boeing 737 while the other has much less surface area therefore creating less drag on the unit. I would say no doubt the Mavic would do better in windy situations. Aero dynamics 101, less surface area less drag. You can all chime in if I'm wrong and I'm sure you will ;).

[@sharmilishende]

Hey Carson Can You Teach Me How To Fly A drone I Have One But It Does Not Have A Camera The Name Is MT290

[@dronereviewman9580]

Those are both amazing drones!! I hope one day to own a drone that nice!! GREAT CHANNEL & GREAT FLYING!!!!! 👍😀👍 I LOVE DRONES WOW 600$ MORE!! THATS CRAZY

[@areaone3813]

It seems to be some wind tunnel there 😱

[@ГригорийИванов-г9о]

Hey fella! You honestly earned my like! You have a rational and useful video. But, you know, it's just, I live in a mountainous area.And maximum flight altitude DJI Mavic Pro Platinum and it's 500 meters for our area - nothing .That's very, very little(tiny). Mavic Is doesn't even reach the middle of the smallest mountain. My disappointment. I don't want to despair, but . . .That's the same screwed these narrow-eyed beasts. If you're cool, and really in the subject tell me how to overcome this limit! Like me hundreds.Make the video.It will be really essential & required material!

[@carsonmtech]

Boom. How to go Further Than 500M (1640FT) When Flying A DJI Drone!! kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y6CYYqeIqdiUfLs

[@ГригорийИванов-г9о]

Thanks guy! The crux of the issue was not the distance. And in the maximum altitude! DJI Mavic Pro Platinum - he stubbornly doesn't want to fly above 500 meters. Help to make fly at least to a height of 1500 meters Flying into the distance-there are no restrictions. I need height. Is that clear?

[@harvpila]

I commented on your video before. You said the p3s handles the wind much better than the mavic pro and I disagree. Yeah you were really wrong.lol. anyways nice video.

[@hairysamsung7049]

The reason the standard lost to the hover battle is because it’s the only phantom 3 with out vision positioning

[@roypatterson9910]

Look at how poor the video feed is on the Phantom, your screen is freezing and then jumping back into place off and on, which means you're losing video signal strength, and with it being that close, that sucks! Lol
