01 Identify the exact model Start with the aircraft, controller or part family before comparing specifications. 02 Compare the real trade-offs Use model-specific details to separate a good match from a merely similar option. 03 Verify the individual unit Condition, inclusions and test evidence always matter more than a generic specification.

Knowledge, organized

Each section stays linked to the original source material. Tables remain tables when detail matters; useful link lists become easier-to-scan research cards.

DJI Phantom 3 SE weighs 1,236 g with battery and propellers and records 3840×2160 video up to 30fps. DJI lists approximately 25 minutes of flight and 16 m/s in ATTI mode without wind. The 4 km headline is a 5.8 GHz FCC unobstructed, interference-free test; DJI lists only 400 m CE on that band, and 2.4 GHz has separate 1 km FCC / 500 m CE-SRRC tests. The official declaration pairs the SE W328 aircraft with the GL358wD controller.

Frequently asked questions

What are the headline DJI Phantom 3 SE specifications?

What is the DJI Phantom 3 SE flight-time figure?

DJI lists approximately 25 minutes. This is a maximum reference, not a loaded or aged-battery guarantee; wind, temperature, battery condition and flight style change endurance.

What is the DJI Phantom 3 SE transmission or control range?

At 5.8 GHz DJI tests 4 km FCC, 3 km SRRC and 400 m CE; at 2.4 GHz it tests 1 km FCC and 500 m SRRC/CE. All figures require unobstructed, interference-free conditions and do not establish a legal operating distance.

Which remote controller model is listed for Phantom 3 SE?

DJI’s Phantom 3 SE declaration pairs aircraft W328 with controller GL358wD. Do not infer compatibility with Phantom 3 4K GL358wB or another regional revision.

Does the Phantom 3 SE 4 km headline apply in CE regions?

No. The 4 km figure is a 5.8 GHz FCC test. The cited manual lists 400 m CE at 5.8 GHz, or 500 m CE at 2.4 GHz, under its unobstructed and interference-free conditions.

What are the Phantom 3 SE 4K frame-rate limits?

DJI lists 4096×2160 at 24/25fps and 3840×2160 at 24/25/30fps. The 30fps figure is for the latter UHD mode.

Does this Wiki page prove current stock, parts, or repair support?

No. This is an official-source model reference. Confirm any current Reboot Hub product, part, compatibility, or service path from the exact live listing or a written support response.
