i purchased a used GL300C controller to use with my Phantom 3 Pro Drone. i am having trouble getting the camera to connect with the controller through the app . i can control the Drone motors. wondering if i need to reset the controller somehow so that it looks for my drone and not the drone it was once working with? any suggestions?

"GL300C controller"?
I see this a lot, is this not a normal controller for a P3A, P3P?

The main difference between the DJI Phantom 3 Standard and the Advanced/Professional controllers lies in the transmission system and overall build quality. The Advanced and Professional models use DJI's Lightbridge technology for a stronger signal and longer range, while the Standard relies on a standard WiFi connection. The Advanced/Professional controllers also feature a more robust build and potentially better ergonomics.

Phantom 3 Standard Controller:
  • WiFi Connection: Uses a standard WiFi connection for video transmission to the DJI Go app.

  • Range: Limited range compared to Lightbridge, typically around 1000 meters (3280 feet).

  • Build Quality: Generally considered less robust and may feel more plasticky compared to the Advanced/Professional controllers.

  • Features: Includes a mobile device holder.
Phantom 3 Advanced/Professional Controllers:
  • Lightbridge Technology:
    Employs DJI's Lightbridge system for a more reliable and longer-range video transmission (up to 5km).

  • Range:
    Offers a significantly longer range (up to 5km) and a more stable connection, especially in areas with interference.

  • Build Quality:
    Features a more premium build, potentially with better ergonomics and more durable materials.

  • Features:
    May include a more advanced mobile device holder for tablets and larger phones.

  • Compatibility:
    The Advanced and Professional controllers are backwards compatible with each other, but neither is compatible with the Standard controller.
