Phantom 3 Advanced range

[Noodle]

Errrr, not according to the DJI specs on their website it doesn't?

If you are talking about P3A doesn't shoot 4K video like a P3P, then you are right. But if you are comparing 1080p/60fps video quality between P3A and P3P, they are both 60Mb/s now.
I own a P3A for over a year so I know what I am talking about, thanks.

He is right, it was in an update. DJI has not updated the website.

Ta.

I got just under 3 miles with mine. Only turned back due to the battery was at 50% and didn't want to chance it. You will do well on this [emoji4]

You can easily make the power clip with $10 worth of parts. If anybody is interested, let me know and I'll share the details.

I bought a Phantom 3 Advanced to go with my Phantom 4 Pro. Unfortunately I have to send my Phantom 4 Pro back to dji for an exchange but good news is my Phantom 3 Advanced arrives on monday. What kind of range can expect out of the Phantom 3 advanced? I'm using the p3a as a play around drone while using the P4P for my photography business. I'd rather not put the wear and tear on the p4p when I just want to fly and play around. Soooooo haha back to the question. Range? Is it good? Stability? Is it rock solid? Or is it more like the P3S? I flew a standard and it wasn't so stable. Any help I'm grateful for. you guys are awesome so far! Especially not treating me bad for being a girl haha. I get that on certain facebook groups.

I've only flown my P3A out about 1.5 miles. I generally lose my video feed at about a mile but fly with the map overlay for reference. I'll probably look into an antennae upgrade.

You might want to give windsurfer a try since it works well, cheap, and easy to put on.

In addition to the camera, the P3P comes with a more powerful battery charger (charge 30 minutes faster) and the max video bitrate is 60 Mbps (vs. 40 Mbps on the P3A). The latter is really only useful/noticeable if you're flying with FPV goggles.

Video bitrate on P3A is 60mbit as well

4.2km using a stock Advance...P3A is 60mbit is correct when using 1080p/60fps
