Reviews around quality (4.54 of 5)

  • Flying it was amazing when everything was working right, but the poor quality control is inexcusable at this price

  • This thing allows even the layperson to get super quality arial video
  • Amazing camera quality and easy to maneuver with practice.

Reviews around video (4.53 of 5)

  • Awesome easy to fly drone that take very good pictures and video.
  • The camera takes outstanding video and stills, and the 2.7K looks great
  • It went half a mile and started to lost signals and video
  • The camera gimbals are really good at removing unwanted video jiggles and shakes; however, it's the gimbal that's the weakest part of the aircraft--hard touchdowns are known to result in the camera and gimbal popping off.
  • Too much responsiveness will likely incumber getting smooth transitions between still video shots and pans

Reviews around quad (4.48 of 5)

  • This is a great quad copter and very easy to learn to use
  • Buy a smaller "cheap" quad and fly them first
  • Also, very confused as to who the actual seller is as there is a different vendor listed here than in "My Orders".
  • Awesome quad, super responsive and the 2.7K camera was perfect for what I needed
  • The quad works fine until DJI forces a software update which seems almost constant

Reviews around range (4.38 of 5)

  • The range, controller, video quality and features make this a hard to beat value.
  • The app restricts your range on GPS mode-Awful calibration system-I hear there is no customer supportA lot of other reviews will scare new buyers into thinking that you have to be an experienced flyer to have fun with this drone,
  • .this advanced model is perfect for what I was wanting long range good fly time extra durable and more features on controller and aircraft ,it's the same as the professional just with no 4K but idc bout that anyway on video and photos .only on tv and
  • In the end I went with the Phantom 3 Advanced since the range was far better than the Standard, the GPS is better and overall functionality was a bit better
  • Previously owned a Phantom 3 Standard, the P3 Advanced is hands down a much better quad-copter, the range, quality and controller are fantastic

Reviews around machine (4.37 of 5)

  • Also, very confused as to who the actual seller is as there is a different vendor listed here than in "My Orders".
  • Great machine, easy to fly, I"ve had some issues, mainly programming, and now a tilted Gimbal, which needs calibration before every flight, started when I updated the firmware to 1.5.
  • If you cannot find this product prime eligible or shipping as fast as you would like from an approved seller it is WELL WORTH sucking it up and dealing with it, in order to retain your Warrenty!After the tutorials and firmware updating finally got it in the air and
  • So the problem is I can choose to fly my drone where the battery temperature reaches above 40*C almost immediately and risk having it "catch on fire or exploding" or I can choose not to fly it for several months out of the year
  • really impressive machine, intuitive to fly, highly recommend this

Reviews around money (4.33 of 5)

  • The time laps are approximately 5 seconds (as fast as you can, I'm used to the GOPRO 0.5 seconds).The only down side is the inability to waypoints, follow me, point of interest things the IRIS + and "SOLO" 3DR.And a dreadful STANDARD launch which becomes an insult to those who invest in the ADVANCED HD camera and STANDARD with 2.7K.In short they made me feel I wasted my money
  • DON'T waste your money on this piece of junk or the warranty because it will cost you 150 dollars to get a replacement because Amazon will say it is operator error
  • your better off spending your money elsewhere so you can get assistance when you need it
  • I suggest looking up the map and if you live anywhere near one don't even waste your time and money because it will not work
  • Not worth the money

Reviews around phantom (4.26 of 5)

  • The DJI Phantom 3 Advanced is the best consumer AP drone on the market.
  • I can't quite afford a Phantom 4 or Mavic, so I chose the Advanced
  • I have a DJI Phantom 3 Advanced and had a DJI Phantom 4 which I returned.
  • I would highly recommend the DJI Phantom 3 Advanced if you are just getting started with a drone.
  • This same problem also bricked the phantom thanks to this disconnection happening during a firmware upgrade

  • It was the cheapest price I could see for the P3A in the entire net
  • Excellent product and delivery time and price was great
  • The price was great, but now I would rather have a Mavic Pro due to the portability and the additional features.
  • However, all these new features will come at a hefty price tag

Reviews around drone (4.17 of 5)

  • Just got the PHANTOM 3 ADVANCED!It is far and away the best drone on the market.
  • The GPS and maps makes it so easy and stable to fly that it is almost impossible to lose your drone.
  • Just to have some fun I bought a cheaper simpler drone that worked perfectly the very first time
  • It's worth it to buy one of these, rather than a cheaper drone, because without the Phantom's redundant stabilization and positioning systems, cheaper drones seem to get lost or broken very quickly, a total waste of money and a menace to others.
  • The 2nd drone was also defective and I was unable to update the firmware in the camera and the camera was unresponsive

Reviews around pilot error (2.54 of 5)

  • I like this drone, good for close video clips and pics haven't used it in a few months would like something with more range
  • Almost allo of the crashes are pilot error not equipment error.
  • They are telling me that the craft was damaged by "pilot error" when in fact it stopped working after THEIR software update
  • I made contact with DJI last week who review the repair order and advised me it was pilot error that caused the crash and extensive damage to my Phantom 3.
  • I asked "pilot error" please explain what I did wrong and basically I was told that pay more attention to the battery and return before it automatically returns.

Reviews around signal (2.03 of 5)

  • Flying should be performed in an open area and miltiple objects that can obstruct the GPS signal
  • I have had the thing out 2700FT so far and because I am in a flat area with lots of trees I lose my sightline and the weak signal will
  • Tonight I had it a mile out over a Walmart's before I got a weak signal warning

Reviews around power (1.80 of 5)

  • The strong power of the motors whipped the Phantom up and it sliced my arm
  • The last time it lost power hovering about 20 feet off of the air and it dropped down hard enough to bend the landing rails and split the case.
  • Drone worked great for first 4 months then decided during a random flight to stop responding to controls and then cut power and fall from the sky
  • I purchased the P-3+ four months ago and really liked it
  • Not sure what they did with the latest update, but my DJI Phantom now loses power at random.
