DJI Phantom 3 Professional

Easy to take off and landing drone, with a high definition camera with amazing snaps. It features much advanced drone technologies such as; drone stabilization gimbal, easy to take off, fly and land mechanism, much safety features such an automatic pilot that features auto take-off, return home and safe fall. It has positioning capabilities a powerful mobile application and much more.

Safety features, this is a collection of automated drone technologies meant for emergency reasons. They include the un-parallel safety feature for beginners. This feature allow the pilot to choose a region within which the drone can fly. Therefore, the drone does not fly past the region making controlling and pilot learning much easier. The other safety features include auto take-off and landing, this is basically made to new users. You tap at the auto take-off in your DJI app and its motors starts, in a coordinated way the drone rises in the air. Controlling the drone at that level is much easier since you tap on the direction you want it to move to. When you are done with fling you tap on auto return home, if GPS is available it will land itself to the point where it too-off at. In case the battery charge is running low and it loses GPS connection or because of any other reason, it will automatically return to the point of take-off.

Apart from GPS this device uses positioning technology which is enhanced by ultrasonic and visual sensors that helps it move accurately in regions that does not have GPS, such as when used indoors. In this mode it can be able to move accurately at a given altitude while establishing its position which is displayed on the screen. Communication to and from of the drone is enhanced by the DJI Light-bridge in-built in the drone, it is very integrated and it has an efficient communication with the remote controller at a range of up to 5 kilometers.

It has a very powerful mobile app, the mobile app is connected to the remote controller. It is capable of viewing high definition videos and snaps, it can download the videos instantly, and it has a good video editor and a comprehensive video, photos and other media libraries. The mobile application has a real time map and radar that help you in controlling the drone from an aerial aspect. It has efficient sharing and creative in connectivity. Main pilot control commands are executed through this application, apart from taking-off, tilting and landing. Much movement sensitivity is achieved through this application, it can hover on a specific point for long enough for the pilot to take all necessary observations before proceeding.

SDK development are other major developments that have been made in this version. It enables the pilot through the mobile app to control the camera, either to adjust its focal length or rotating it to capture the objects of interests. You therefore, don’t spend much time turning the whole drone. SDK provides follow me capabilities where the drone lands in the current remote controller’s position and not the point of take-off. Other features include ground station and point of interest which are locations on GPS grid. It is through the SDK that you gather the finest flight data such the exact altitude, speed, level of charge left, distance from point of landing and amount of energy required to return. Therefore you can make informed piloting decisions using the data provided.

DJI Phantom 3 Professional has a 4K video capturing capability in a 12 megapixels camera. High definition photos and videos stabilized by a 3 axis gimbal which gives a clear view of the objects from high altitudes. You view the 720p high definition videos from the iPhone or the other type of Tablet connected just as the camera captures them. This provide the ability to capture still objects with a greater clarity.

With the intelligent battery as an additional feature, this battery has built-in sensors coordinating with bright LEDs that blink different colors depending on charge levels. The battery calculates the amount of charge left, which is relayed to the SDK. In the SDK it is integrated to show the time of flight left and recharge time.

This drone is more than three times efficient compared to the previous DJI versions.  Its powerful mobile application, intelligent battery and safety features are the most fascinating components of this drone. HD quality pictures, high stabilization and positioning makes this drone more professional. It is the type you would wish to buy while shooting a high quality video.
