My first bird was a new Phantom 4. After I crashed it, I got a used Phantom 4 Pro at a bargain (which I still have). I have been wanting a more "play around" drone that I can take more risks with to get better flying, so I bought a Phantom 3 Pro at amazing price.


Now I am wondering if there is anything I should know going from a 4 Pro to a 3 Pro?


For example, I have had my P4P be able to handle wind gusts 25+ knots. Can a P3P handle that?


How different is the handling and control?


How about the DJI GO app (the regular one, not the 4 one)?


How about anything I need to know about taking care of the camera/gimbal?


Anything different about handling and caring for the batteries?


Etc etc... Basically anything good to know. I don't want to assume it is just like P4P and then screw it up over something silly.


Also does anybody else have a "risk taker" drone they use?
 
I have a P3P and a P4, i use the P3P for long range flying (ideal with a antenna and battery mod). The P3P may not handle as well as the P4 but it still holds its own, the camera is awesome and i have no trouble using the DJI GO app with the bird. The batteries on P3 are 4480 Mah compared with 5350 P4 so bit of diff there. If its windy i dont usually fly but have on the odd ocassion and the P3P handles it. cheers
