Great all in one package

Posted by: Rawberry from Seattle, WA on 02/25/2016Ordered in store and picked up a week later. Drone box wasn't damaged or anything like that from the trip. The white box was more or less grey due from the dust. Thing must have been sitting for a while but I won't mark down Bestbuy. I don't expect them to wipe down dusty boxes lol. Out of the box it can be a bit intimidating especially because the firmware updates could be easier or at least explained better instead of resorting to DJI's website for basically all your knowledge. The manuals that come with the drone in the box barely explain anything. After you get over that hurdle though the drone is a ton of fun. If you've never flown anything remote control before like myself your first flight can be a bit of a nervous one but it doesn't have to be. The DJI Go App is really nice and eases you into taking full advantage of your drone in no time. Just take your time and learn as much as you can before you try pushing it. Flight is really really stable even in light breezes and the picture and video quality is pretty amazing for what the camera really is. Battery life could be better. I get around 20-22 minutes depending on how vigorous I'm flying. The charger that comes with the Advanced version is rated at almost half the wattage of the Professional charger which does drastically change the charging time. From around 10-20% to full charge it takes the Advanced charger around 45 minutes to an hour. Luckily they sell the advanced charger separately. Granted that another thing you have to buy if you want to cut your charge times pretty much in half. And the extra batteries are a touch on the pricey side. I still got one and couldn't be happier with about 40-45 minutes of total flight time. But with that additional flight time the hilariously small 16gb MicroSD card they give you can become a bother when you record video at the max 2.7K resolution. Even with the negatives I still give this 5 stars just based on the (at the time I purchased) massive price difference between the Advanced and the Professional. Over 400$ price difference and all for the ability to shoot 4K videos. Now that they are only separated by 200$ the choice can become a bit tougher but I think the 300$ difference between the Advanced and the Standard is really justified. The Lightbridge technology inside the controller drastically improves the range and video quality while at the extreme range and the sonic and optical downward facing sensors really do make it way more stable closer to the ground. My friend had a Standard which made me want to purchase one of these and after doing the research settled on the Advanced and the difference between the flying characteristics between the Standard and the Advanced and the controller is night and day. If you're on a budget and don't need extreme 1+ mile range and the controller with more buttons and the extra sensors that help when there's no GPS or you're close to the ground then the Standard is the right drone for you. If you're still on a budget but need to shoot 4K and don't care for the 1+ mile range or the extra sensors but want the nicer controller then the Phantom 3 4K is the right drone for you. If you want the extended range and the nicer controller but don't care about 4K quite yet then the Advanced is the right drone for you. If you have to have 4K video capability and you want the extended range then the Professional is the one for you.

Product Is Awesome, Best Buy Shipping not so much!

Posted by: JBeez17 from Milwaukee on 02/13/2016This is a very great quad!! It is a solid flier, stable, and excellent hardware. Yes, this is very expensive and not a toy quad by any means. Though you have to take into account the hardware...camera, gimbal, app, controller, and most importantly Lightbridge technology. There are horror stories out there about all these quads but many can be avoided. Do your homework folks and know what you are buying. I implore you to read and watch the tutorials DJI has before first takeoff. Could save yourself time and money. Please fly safe and abide by the rules out there. Now Best Buy please do better on your shipping!! Yes arrived as usual in a timely manner....This product was not in a shipping box protected. Arrived on my doorstep in manufacturer box with a shipping label slapped on. Inexcusable Best Buy, inexcusable!! The product looked like it was sitting in the corner of your warehouse for a year unattended. It was dirty, dented, and beat up!! This was the first time I have ever received anything from Best Buy in this manner. This would never be on your shelves, ever!!

Professional Equipment - Fair Price

Posted by: Sam19 from on 02/13/2016I started out owning the phantom 1.1.1, and recently upgraded to the Phantom 3 Advanced. This drone has unbelievable battery life, ease of use, and camera. I would recommend this edition to anyone who has used a DJI drone before. If you are new to this "hobby" I would recommend to start with the DJI Phantom 3 Standard. It is less complicated and most importantly costs less. I didn't see a reason to purchase the professional model for a 4k camera. Unless 4k is a necessity, I would look for the DJI Phantom 3 Advanced. You wont regret the decision.

Nice graphics for beginner to use.

Posted by: time from on 01/29/2016This turned out to be the perfect gift for our son who really had nothing on his list. He was thrilled to have something to "play with" that wasn't for kids. He's learning a lot and having fun at the same time.

Excellent

Posted by: rtrfamjr2 from on 01/16/2016DJI's Phantom 3 Advanced might be pricey, but for what you get right out the box is well worth it. It has a good camera, a well-designed app and a controller that make it simple-to-fly. The flight performance and safety features allow even advance users to have fun while flying. The DJI-Go app can enable you to fly and gives you better situational awareness. I would recommend the DJI.
