  • Why I LOVE the Standard AND THE BAD STUFF You Need To Know Before You Fly
Style: Quadcopter Only
THE GOOD: To anyone thinking the Standard is substandard - LOL - I own one and love it. It is the perfect drone for a first time pilot, and I know several experienced pilots who buy the Standard as back up drones. The main limitation of the Standard is that the range it can fly is about half of the higher up models, and it uses fewer GPS signals and has no downward looking visual "eye" like the advanced and pro, so it will drift more up down and sideways (but not a whole lot) and not land quite as accurately at the take off point automatically. I give mine a 15 foot radius for safety in landings and sometimes it will land 10-12 feet from take-off point on auto-land. Advanced and Pro stay within 2-6 feet usually. The controller is more limited with older technology. BUT the standard flies just as fast, and as high, takes just as good video and pics and is just as much fun as the $1000 models for 1/3 the price. In the beginning you always want to fly within line of sight (Standard's limitations keeps you there) and legally you are ALWAYS supposed to fly line of sight. THE BAD: DJI leads a new user to believe all the built in guidance system will do everything for you from takeoff to landing. And it will, until it doesn't. That WILL happen, not an IF - it is a WHEN... You have 3 sensitive components talking to each other (controller / drone / smartphone) using both Wi-Fi and radio, plus very sensitive onboard compass and GPS. This overly complicated plumbing will fail at some point and it can happen even a few feet away. At that point, you need to switch to manual control immediately - and hope you have time. I have had compass errors happen 3 feet off the ground in auto land and the dreaded "crazy flying meat slicer with 4 exposed blades" needed to be grabbed by the landing gear to stop it from hitting things as it got confused and would not respond to the controller. BTW: A pair of chef's slice proof gloves is a great idea at take offs and landings, don't ask how I know. RULE NUMBER ONE: Always be prepared for the unexpected! Like flying a private plane the phrase "hours of calm punctuated with seconds of panic" applies here. Best advice for new pilots - learn to do everything manually first - especially landing - because at some point you will need that skill and need it FAST! Also never ignore the long boring preflight compass calibration. I do it every time I set up for flight, but my terrain is always varied from flight to flight. DJI says it isn’t necessary unless you move the unit over 100 miles – or change terrain dramatically, which I do almost every session, from lake, to desert, to high mountains. I like calibrating because not only does it re calibrate your compass - more importantly - it warns you if there are magnetic disturbances. If there are anomalies showing in the software messages - my advice is pack it up and move elsewhere, or fly totally on manual control. Ignore any of those warning at your own risk. Compass or GPS warnings for a new pilot mean WAIT or RELOCATE. SAFETY: Never forget how dangerous these machines are. 3 pounds with spinning blades plummeting from 400 feet is a deadly weapon. Don't fly over people or roads. Warn folks nearby to be aware of the drone. A drone, under the right set of circumstances with a simple malfunction could kill a pet or a human. It's like owning a gun, be responsible or don't own it. Never do like these YouTube folks and fly it miles away to see how far it can go or push the limits to see how fast you can swoop over a crowd of people. That is inviting disaster. THE MIDDLING - should the worst happen with the Standard, and you make a fatal flying error - more likely when a new pilot – then you are out only $400 or so max, instead of a grand, and actually less if you sell the remaining controller and battery etc. on eBay. Every piece of a DJI is worth money and easy to sell, so pick up the pieces if you can. If you can find your crashed drone DJI may fix it under warranty if it was the drone's fault, but don't count on it. DJI at this point in time has horrible support, if that changes, it would be wonderful. I would buy a 3rd party crash warranty over DJI's coverage any day of the week, if that is important to you. They are sold here on Amazon BTW... NICE PART: Battery lasts longest of all the DJI P3 models in the Standard version by 2 - 3 minutes because of fewer sensors. If you step up to a P3 Pro - batteries and case can come along (But not P4) and at $100 plus per battery, that is good news. Eventually you will want 3 or 4 batteries so you can fly about hour with juice to spare for landings, trust me. BOTTOM LINE: Most of the "Bad" I listed applies to any drone, from $49 to $5000. You can watch at least 3 videos on YouTube of folks crashing $3000 DJI Vision Drones on their very first flight, despite the Vision having much more tech and more sensors and collision avoidance. Sensors or not, if you tell it to go into a wall because you are disoriented and unfamiliar with the controls, it's going to do what you say. This sad story happens every day. This is why I don't encourage a new drone pilot to drop a grand or more on a first drone. Fly a while first and you will never get that disorientation that can cost you a fortune. Instead you will understand the controls and the principles and react instinctively to the inevitable unexpected situation. In my opinion at this time, most any drone any cheaper or similarly priced as this is not a "real" drone, so you can't take as many of the skills with you when you step up. Many drones in this price range have nothing better to step into. Once you learn to fly a DJI and get familiar with their software and controllers - you can fly their whole line pretty much. I haven't yet mentioned the excellent camera that makes me often joke "for the price of a GoPro, I got a comparable camera with a stabilizing gimbal that flies." Put all this together and that is why, in my opinion, this is the BEST DEAL in drones right now - by far... If this review was helpful to you, it is much appreciated if you would [...] ... show more

  • Great product, great value. Amazing image and video quality.
Style: Quadcopter Only
This is a great product. I bought it in the black Friday sales and got it within 2 days. Setup was very straight forward, thanks to the many helpful review and youtube tutorials. The documentation that comes with it is pretty sparse, but not bad if you supplement with sources from the web. A few points if you are on the fence between the phantom 3 standard and the advanced/pro models: - The phantom 3 standard appears very stable in GPS mode (which is the default mode). From what I have seen, it appears as good as the higher end models. However, the advanced/pro may have an advantage in conditions where the GPS satellites may be more obstructed, and they are better indoors due to their visual and ultra sonic ground sensing. This is not an issue for me, as I am planning to use it mainly outdoors and in open areas, but if you plan to use it indoors the standard is not the right version for you. - The range seems very good so far. We live in a residential area of San Jose, where one would think there should be lots of interference, but it worked just fine out to 300 feet, at which point it was only a tiny spec and farther away than I was comfortable based on visual flight operation. But judging from the signal strength indicator, it will probably go at least twice that distance, and with very simple modifications (parabolic antenna dish, called windsurfer wifi booster, search for DIY version) people have added another 50% range, which is much farther than I think I would ever want it to go. One more thing, to get a good range, the antenna has to be parallel to the drone antennas, which are in the legs, so typically the antenna should be vertical and the controller as a whole should be held into the direction of the drone. If the antenna is pointing at the drone horizontally, you will likely get a smaller range. - The camera takes great video. It works well in daylight, and from I read may be slightly worse than the advanced in lower light conditions, mostly an issue if you plan to do indoor flights, for which the standard is not well suited anyway. The camera video resolution is by default 2.7k, I found that my laptop did not recognize that format, but it was fine when I switched to 1920x1080, which still looks great and saves a lot of memory for recording. Switching resolution is easy to do in the DJI Go app, there is a button on the right when in camera view. - The live video was a little lagging and choppy, possibly due to my very simple phone, so this would be a problem if you plan to fly purely by viewing the monitor. I believe legally you are required to fly the drone always in line of sight, and that's what I am planning to do, so this is not a deal breaker for me. Iphones are supposed to be better from what I read, but I did not test that. The advanced and professional models are supposed to have a lot better live streaming, and that may be their biggest advantage, besides their very large range. - In summary, for me, the standard is more than what I was hoping for and I am glad I save $400+ vs. the higher end models. Another few points on compatible devices and the reported setup issues: - My simple Samsung Galaxy Ace phone from Walmart worked just fine, which makes me believe most android devices with a reasonably current OS version should be OK. I downloaded the DJI Go app from Google play store and it installed fine, which I think is a good indicator that it will work. If you are in doubt, you can try to install the DJI Go app on your device before you buy the drone, to give you some confidence your phone/tablet will work. BTW, my phone only has a 4 inch screen and as a result some of the menus don't show perfectly, but still good enough to use it for flying the drone. A larger screen will certainly be better, though. - The setup was fairly easy, mainly because I read a number of articles on the web about it. Once you power up remote and drone, you can connect through wireless and most likely will get a message to update the firmware. It will tell you to connect back to your home network, then you download the firmware, switch wifi back to the drone, and continue the download. The drone will make all kinds of beeping sounds and after about half an hour it will be done and tell you to restart, meaning turn off drone (press the power button briefly, then for 2 seconds, and then it took a few more seconds until the red light was off, indicating that is was saving the file, I believe), then turn off controller, then turn the controller back on, then turn on the drone (press the power button briefly, then for 2 seconds). I had to cycle the power twice before the process was complete and it would let me connect to wifi again. After that the DJI Go app lets you see the camera image and you are pretty much good to go. There was some mentioning of compass calibration, which I still have to do. It flew just fine without that calibration, though. Also, there is another message that the controller firmware may be out of date, but I believe that is for the advanced/professional version, because the app did not ask me to update it for the standard. ... show more
