To any beginners out there, the phantom's don't usually drift as much as it does on this video, the drone is drifting so much because he intended it that way, he initialized the drone on uneven ground to demonstrate drift on Altitude mode, the road is tilted forwards & to the right, so in Altitude mode the drone drifted forwards & to the right, always make sure you switch on your drone on even ground, not doing so will cause the motors on one side to work harder in order to compensate for the tilt, the greater the tilt the harder the motors will work in order to maintain a stable position in GPS mode.

This video was perfect and exactly what I was looking for. straight to the point and step by step. Awesome, Thank you so much!

[@markottman546]

Thanks for moving quickly through everything! Nothing worse than watching a video where somebody is over explaining everything. Looking forward to other videos from you.

[@davidkrutsinger5414]

quickly is the key word.

[@rizaladriansyahputra]

[@CodyKrantz]

Thanks for the video. I've watched at least 5 tutorials on this drone, and this was by far the best one. You got the the point quick. Subbed.

[@jamesleggett1979]

yeah as Cody said, I've seen a lot of dji tutorials specifically this n the phantom 4, yeah you sold it perfectly, in all honesty I was enjoying it and then it was over, this was well presented and it's easy to watch, bring out more vids, I want the 4 but it's too much, gonna look at getting the 3 in a few weeks so keep up with the quality work

Thank you for the video, I bought a used Phantom 3 Pro and now I understand the additional controls for panning down and changing the shutter speed.

[@PavelYarema]

Looking forward to more videos! I was inspired by you to start my new hobby of aerial photography and enjoying it since.

Thanks for video. Very informative and concise. My DJI 3 advanced is on its way and I cant wait to get started.

[@denihei]

Best tutorial i ever seen,,thanks 👍

[@TheRealStevenGlen]

great video thanks

[@richthedroneguy8943]

Thanks for that. I have one on the way and every bit of tutorial I get before I start flying it helps! Except I don't advise slow takeoff and landing, you can flip the drone from ground effect.

[@Seqhael]

A brief explanation to using your shutter speed to help your frame rate. The lower you set your exposure on auto with the DJI Phantom, the higher the shutter speed goes in an attempt to control the exposure (light entering the lens). The higher the shutter speed = more jittery videos, more jello and prop interference. If you're shooting at 24p you want your shutter speed around 1/50th, 30p@1/60th, 60p@1/120th etc. 24p is a typical cinematic frame rate and gives you cinematic motion blur when using a 1/50th shutter speed. 60p is twice the frame rate which can be slowed down in post-production to 50% (30fps) and when used at 1/120 shutter speed, gives you smooth slow motion at 50% speed. If you're trying to shoot 1/50th of a second at 24p and everything is really over exposed (more than likely on a sunny day), then you're going to need neutral density (ND) filters to reduce the light entering the lens, bringing your exposure closer to normal. 24p@1/50th + ND filters to correct the exposure = cinematic drone footage (more motion blur).

[@connielewis1554]

Reubs thank you for that explanation

[@lungfixer]

Wow, I didn't realize you had to take a photography class to own a drone. LOL Thanks for the tip, mate.

[@101Heroes]

Awesome video -- great job! KEEP POSTING! : )

[@teflon97239]

Nice, quick, easy to follow vid. Very well done, no messing around, just quick demonstrations of all the features. Thanks. Now I want one.

[@zippypop34]

Great video, precise and to the point. Sold all my GoPro gear to purchase the Phantom 3 Standard so pumped to use it!

[@SuperDronescom]

+zippypop34 I think you will really love it!

[@David_4838]

[@RickyVillaluaValor]

Thanks for your video

[@jessetrue2956]

God finally a video that doesn't ramble on about "Oh hey subscribe" and "Let me tell you a story first"... Getting right to the point. Thank you.

[@siyabongamngoma8933]

Thanks bro I learned a lot

[@Tigerworksinc]

Thanks for the screen details and function orientation. It will greatly help my orientation with the Phantom 3 once it arrives.

[@xxEPICxxFILMSxx]

If you ever get far away and can't tell orientation always look at your map and it has an arrow

[@ryu4rules]

Good Video Mate......

[@benkeyes4438]

Great tips. I can't wait to get my Phantom 3 Pro.

[@SuperDronescom]

+Ben Keyes Thanks! You will absolutely love it!

[@michaelmaelibaea5387]

watching ready to get one

[@LuBiBochum]

Great Vid,thanks.

[@Flyingadronedotcom]

+LuBi Bochum Ditto - great video - I wish I could talk that fast :)

[@Tekgila]

Nice video!

[@walterego2314]

Good vid - I like that you calibrated it by turning the quad round its own axis, not using your body as the axis and spinning it round yourself like most demonstrations do. It still seems to calibrate the other way but it can't be as accurate IMO.

[@billsomrak]

Nicely done .. very professional. I have a P3A coming in a couple days and am now trying to glean all I can from vids. I have plenty of flying experience, so that won't be a problem (from a Syma nano to my XK X380 gps bird ... 10 quads in all). Already have downloaded latest firmware upgrade and will put that on the SD card and pop it into the camera slot and get upgrade out of the way. Might need additional upgrades for TX & batteries .. not sure. Will check back and view some of your other vids. Cheers.

[@rvideos890]

Helpful video yes.

[@douglaslee5775]

Just what I needed ;)

[@KrunoomSoodlor]

thank you please more Tutorial

[@rrrecords4715]

nice video keep it up

[@markmckeown87]

Got the 3 Standard today, thanks for this help!

[@hasaniqbal233]

how is it?

[@mondor182]

it's amaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaazingly awesome (bought one 2 days ago)

[@emanuelvillarreal9641]

does the standard 3 have the return to home botton?

[@SuperDronescom]

+Emanuel Villarreal Yes. All Phantom 3 and 4 have RTH button on the remote, in the GO app and can be set to RTH in the event of signal loss.

[@markmckeown87]

SuperDrones Hmm I think you might be incorrect on that, the standard only has joysticks, power button, toggle switches and wheel to control camera.

[@doreloloier1668]

Thanks!

[@frankrodriguez8520]

Nice video

[@zsherry9190]

Good video

[@DjMaleeq]

Your tutorial is the best on the internet :)

[@SuperDronescom]

+DjMaleeq Thank you! Happy you liked it.

[@calebbautista-brown3730]

+SuperDrones does it work with Samsung Galaxy S6?

[@SuperDronescom]

+caleb bautista -brown I've heard that the newest version of the DJI GO app works well on the S6. As with all phones and tablets, it is a good idea to close all other apps and put the phone in airplane mode while using the GO app.

[@conipapin3725]

That was great THANKX !!!!~

[@SuperDronescom]

+Coni Papin Thanks!

[@ryannichol4703]

WOW!!! AMAZING INDEED 💖💖💖 I'LL BUY A UNIT VERY SOON =)

[@MrRadazone]

NIce Video!!

[@blakecraft3868]

good tutorial. yep. I'm buying this drone.

[@mjpicard00]

Great video... Just got a P3A and digging for info. One point I must make: At 08:57, you state "I'm using only the left stick". As a humble newbie, reluctant to point fingers, I thought I would present the point for your review. Thanks, good video.

[@thienphan5872]

Yeah man ,that is great .....

[@thienphan5872]

I like that video....about Phantom 3.

[@rileybrennan]

Pretty cool drone just got one

[@jshanks]

I just picked up a Phantom 3 Pro today (great deal, so I went with the pro). I'll be watching a few more videos before taking it out.

[@SuperDronescom]

How do you like your P3 Pro? Still one of my favorites. Great quad and exceptional value with the recent price drop.

[@jshanks]

+SuperDrones Loving it. The price drop was all I needed of a push.

[@MrLoch503]

Super clear, brief, and just to the point. This is what every drone newbie needs.

[@aussiemale9]

Thanks a lot

[@yantoalfa]

Thanks man...

[@bumpygumpson]

It’s the squaw peak overlook!

[@josephsaeteurn9158]

i'm in the process of getting my drone and this is very helpful.

[@hugocoreas333]

Thanks 👍

[@bustinass4367]

Good Stuff - by the way, the two quick blasts of power on spool up is designed to check to see if the props are tight - its actually speeding up and braking twice to check to see if the props are tight. If they were loose they would fly off on the ground and it the processor will power back down. Nice Job Mike Mas

[@SuperDronescom]

+Bustin Ass Thanks for the feedback and info. It also helps alert those around that it is about to take off.
