Data transfer

[Neil Shearer]

Hi

I've just purchased a Phantom 3 and I'm struggling to transfer data from the aircraft to my laptop.

Can't seem to find software to perform the task!

Any hints??

Thanks

Neil

Exactly what data are you trying to transfer?

Welcome Neil.

Images and Video that you took with the camera is located on the microSD card that is located on the top of the camera. You can remove this card and put it in a card reader to extract your data. Or you can connect a micro USB cord to the Gimble (part that holds the camera) and extract it like it is a disk drive. I hope this helps.

You can connect the AC directly, however, it needs to be powered up and it makes an annoying chirping sound during the transfer. And that's a slow method. Removing the card is a delicate procedure but much faster. Just be sure you don't insert it backwards when inserting back into the camera.

You could transfer them directly from the memory card using Apple's memory card reader to your laptop.

Just in case you missed it, the original question was posted almost 2.5 years ago.

He's probably figured it out by now.....

Unless he is still saving to buy an Apple computer so he can use the Apple memory card reader....
