The DJI Phantom 3 Standard is the entry-level DJI Phantom 3 drone at the time of posting this. "Entry-level" does not imply that the Phantom 3 Standard is not good though. It doesn't have the Vision sensors, fancier controller and Lightbridge like the DJI Phantom 3 Advanced and DJI Phantom 3 Professional models but it
DJI Phantom 3 waypoints is a new feature that became available as part of a DJI Phantom 3 firmware update.

This is how to access DJI Phantom 3 Intelligent Navigation Modes. These modes are DJI Phantom 3 Follow Me, DJI Phantom 3 POI, DJI Phantom 3 Waypoints and more. If you're like me, finding out how to find the new DJI Phantom 3 Intelligent Navigation Modes was confusing.
For anyone that owns a DJI Phantom 3 and more than one battery, this accessory is a must. This Phantom 3 battery charger allows charging of up to four Phantom 3 batteries at the same time (once one battery finishes charging, it charges the next one)! It's a huge time-saver for anyone with more than
A Phantom 3 sun hood is a great accessory for any Phantom 3 owner. It helps to better reduce the glare from the sun on a smartphone. I use iPod Touch or iPhone 6 Plus with my Phantom 3 and this sun hood works great for either. It also folds up compactly for transport to

It is smaller than many other options but that's great for travel in my opinion. Also, if you
