Greg - You make the best videos, so thorough and detailed! Thank you for ALL you do for us!

Wow! Great Air 3 beginners guide (with a lot of information that can apply to other drones). Thanks

Nice job!!!!! Great information best I've seen so far

Bought mine today, should arrive next week. Ive learned so much from this video, thanks, Im excited!

This is, by far, the BEST drone instructional video I've ever seen! Being able to impart information and knowledge to others requires not only knowing the subject matter profoundly, but also being a good communicator. You excel at both. You covered every single aspect and technique at a pace that everyone can follow and in a manner that's not only clear to understand but also a pleasure to listen to. Your goal is not to impress the audience but to provide them valuable learning material that we'll be able to translate to skills which we'll surely appreciate Thank you for the time and effort spent putting together this video!

Very informative 👏 thanks 👍

Thanx Greg! I am a Part 107 certificated drone photographer that has been piloting "pro-sumer" drones for about eight years now. I've owned the original Mavic, the EVO 2, and Skydio 2/2+ (one of each). Since Skydio has dead-ended itself for my purposes, I am considering the Air 3. This video was helpful in reminding me of some of the DJI flight control basics as well as acquainting me with some of the new features. Be well.

Great review🎉
-
One of the best reviews on the air 3 I've seen so far! You and Dobo going head to head lol...Billy is in there too haha...great job Greg! ❤🎉
-
excellent video
-
Tx, can we use 3X lens for 360 Sphere?
-
From what I have seen of other pilots that memory in the controller is very much worth it. IF for whatever reason, the drone crashes the backup of the screen in the controller will help get you within reasonable distance of the location of the drone... or what's left of it. lol Does it have provisions for the transponder? is there an audible signal that th drone can broadcast to help ou find it when you get close???
-
Very Nice Explanation 🎉🎉😊

I use the "CrystalSky" monitor and it was an absolute game changer for broad daylight operations, it just doesn't work with the entire product line. The other drones using the smartphone camera, which does not play well in the sun, adds a frustrating layer to the process. The RC-N2 controller is a god send. That alone is worth the upgrade to me, the other great features of this platform are just bonus.
-
Does the RC n2 have the same range?

Man ! I'm taking your excellent 107 course and just bought an Air 3 and now I find THIS course - the goodness never stops with you guys at PI !! I have a question: DJI stated over two years ago that all of their drones going forward would support the new Remote ID requirement. They've offered F/W updates to other models to accomplish that well before the A3 was released. There is a non-DJI post on-line showing how to find the A3 RID number for registration. My A3 often shows a status line saying RID "functionality normal" and provides a code. Your video here shows that too at 16:16 ! But there are also reports stating DJI is late releasing a F/W update with RID for the A3. When I registered mine with the FAA and looked for the RID code, all I could find were S/Ns (in settings>About). Knowing the A3 MUST have RID I selected "my drone has RID" in their registration form and tried entering the A/C S/N (which is the same as the controller S/N) into the RID box on the form and it accepted it ! So I assumed that DJI must have made the RID the same as the S/N for this model ? But I'm not so sure that's correct. There's absolutely nothing about it in any provided downloadable or on-line DJI documentation. It's not even mentioned ! What the HELL is really going on !?!? Thanks !
