    Follow Me Mode Phantom 3

    We rode down the road that you see in the shot and I had the drone follow us.

    How many of you use your own charge cable and charger to charge phantom 3 batts. And do you like it?

    I have often thought that this was a good idea and priced well Battery And Transmitter Charger Plates 110-240V Input 4 In 1 For DJI Phantom 3 but it's only for AC use. As far as parallel charging goes with your own rc battery charger goes, it's going to be hard to do with out some circuitry...

    Battery Cold use?

    DJI Car Charger

    I have the same type. It charges the battery slow so I feel it's a low amperage. I would try this in other vehicle first to ensure the charger is not at fault for some reason.
