    P3S Antenna swap testing

    Sorry guys been busy. I have not tried the large 9db antenna yet, but in my area my limits have doubled just from the antenna change to a 5 and 6db one. One thing I noticed with the p3s vs p3a is when I hit the limit on the p3a it doesn't automatically get video feed back until I manually...

    If purchasing new stick with big dealers.

    If they don't play with you dispute the ccard charge. They'll be a lot more helpful then. A brand new item should not be your responsibility to get repaired even under warranty but the store's. As long as it was bad from the start.

    In a small room like that with display cases, this is what I'd do.

    Controlling the P3s from tablet or smartphone?

    I have the P3A an P3S and for the money, the P3S is AMAZING. With a better tablet mount, an antenna mod, it can be very close in functionality to the P3A/Pro. It won't have the range and stability , but if that's not necessary, it beats any other video drone around the same price range.

    Controlling the P3s from tablet or smartphone?

    It's ok, but the range is way less on the Chroma and it loses video way faster than the Phantom 3 Standard even. It is 'slower' and less responsive too. I'm not a fan of the ST10+ Controller of the Chroma.

    Dropping Payloads with DJI Phantom 3 Advanced

    He is right. It is illegal to drop anything from a UAV. Commercial OR Personal.

    It should't stop. Even when losing signal.

    Controlling the P3s from tablet or smartphone?

    No worries.. Just trying to see if I can look really cool by controlling my P3S from the smartphone. There should be an app that lets you do limited control over it, like slow movements withing a 20foot radius or something and camera controls. More like fine tuning form the smartphone. Too...

    P3S Antenna swap testing

    The antenna in the middle only improves the control signal strength. By quite far though in my testing. In an area with tall trees surrounding me, very spotty LOS, changing to a 5db larger antenna almost doubled my range before RTH gets tripped. I have a 9db 16" antenna I will try with it next...

    How to get the 2013 Nexus 7 to work well with the Phantom 3 Pro?

    The Nexus 7 should not even have been able to install the APP as it is not compatible with the P3's. Mine at least said it was incompatible with the DJI App. Even when brand new they were overhyped and underperforming. No surprised about the bad performance. You coudl try manually lowering the...

    Back in the Saddle...

    I've ordered 3 different styles and this one is by FAR the most stable : CNC FPV LCD Monitor Mount Bracket for DJI Phantom Vision 3 Standard IPAD mini The other ones that still use the stock flimsy and unstable plastic arm from the P3S are useless.
