DJI Phantom 3 Professional 4K Drone

DJI has made their mark on the drone retail scene with the beloved Phantom II, and now the brand looks to up the ante with the release of the DJI Phantom 3 Professional 4K Drone.

As the name would indicate, the main selling point here is the ability to shoot 4K footage (at 30 FPS). There will be both a Phantom 3 Professional and Phantom 3 Advance available – the Professional being the one with the 4K ability. While the Professional doesn’t quite live up the Advanced, it’s not too shabby either, shooting at 1920 x 1080 at 60 FPS. Both drones can be controlled by the included remote along with the smartphone/tablet app, letting you pilot your drone with your mobile device. It also comes equipped with GPS, ensuring you never lose your robot friend, and built-in sensors that provide real-time battery life. Our favorite feature though has to be the “follow me” function, letting you the drone autonomously follow you while you run around. The Advanced starts at $1,000, while the Professional is a bit more pricey at $1,250. [Purchase]
