I don't think I have ever commented on a video but I just have to say: your videos are well thought out, explained thoroughly and extremely informative. You have taken the time to present the material in a complete and precise manner, unlike most channels in which the presenter hits record and makes it all up and never edits out the mistakes. Also, not a huge fan of watching youtube videos but I have watched about 10 of yours so far. For me that is unheard of. Excellent work. Thank you for the effort.
The P2 one and this P3 Vid make the workings very simple (as I use all your teachings ...they work and are insightful ) great quad mode .. good job Tom . Love your Show !!!!!

Thanks for this...it really helps. But this video demonstrates a fly-by -- how to make a clean orbit around an object? That is also a big cinematic move to learn.
thank you for this explanation. i've had a phantom for a long time and didn't really know about this as much. i'm definitely going to get better shots with this. THNX!
I really enjoy all your Phantom videos and I've learned so much....Thank you and keep up the good work.Since there is no F mode on the Phantom 4 what setting are we supposed to use to use Course Lock?
This video was really helpful in understanding the function of Course Lock as well as its practical application. Your videos are well done and have saved me lots of time in learning about drones and safe flight.
Hi Tom, your videos are really professional and very educational. You explained course lock really, reall well. Thanks a lot and keep up the good work.
can either Tom or anyone else tell me, what sound track was used from 2:01 onwards. I tried to shazam it with no success...any tipp appreciated...Thanks
Tom went fishing for dolphin the fish not the porpoise finding the fish is often a problem from the deck of the boat the horizon is only about three or 4 miles away. It would be a good application if we could send a drone out to look for fish and convey back the location. You would only have to go three or 4 miles out
Hi I am new owner of P3P ,,please, let me know if the course lock can work with indoor flight ? I am also wondering if the F mode can be used with indoor flight even if there is no GPS signal ...thank you for all efforts made to broadcast these interesting videos
Great tutorial videos, Tom! I glad I found your channel. It's obvious that you put a lot of time and effort into these videos. A big Thank You from the USA!
Great job. Your tutorials are awesome. I'm sure you're the one to ask: If you begin flying, supose at the edge of a cliff that is 50 meters above sea level,, and then you want to take Phantom to only 10 meters above the sea level to fly around a boat, I guess the altitude wil detect a minus 40 meters. Do you think this feature would work?. In general terms, waht happens when the Phantom fly "below" the home point? Thanks in advance for your response.
One thing not mentioned is that a cross wind will effect the flight path with course lock. The a/c will drift off the set course. At least ways, it does on my P3a. Great vid Tom. Thanks
Tom, I have a P4 P+. I am new to RC and drones and so I am Mr. Ten Thumbs. My question is: what is the purpose of the little red arrow within a green colored circle? Is that supposed to be True North? Also; when flying in CL Mode, can I make a R or L adjustment to my flight path and still be locked into CLMode so pushing the R stick forward moves the copter forward and pushing the stick to the rear brings the copter back towards me? Thank you. I love your channel - keep up the great work!! Cheers, Tom Heller
Your videos are very informative and easy to follow. I happy that I found your link. I'm a new pilot, about 1 month. I pretty have the hang of flying my Phantom 3 Pro. I have a question about flying without the gimbal and camera attached. I want to practice some close maneuvering between obstacles and i am concerned about crashing. i know the gimbal and camera are quite expensive. Is it possible to fly the Phantom 3 pro with complete control of the aircraft without the gimbal and camera attached? Thanks again for your great videos....
Tom:After installing the latest update on my P-3 pro, the IOS features do not show up in "F" mode after airborne. IOS modes (Follow Me, POI etc) worked great previously. Any thoughts why it doesn't work? Thanks for your great videos. Very easy and entertaining to watch. Hope you keep up the great work.
Hallo Toms, is that possible if I turn on Course lock before take off ? in case, I filmed indoor, so I can't hover without GPS lock while activating course lock.. thank :)
Hey tom steve from australia mate Apart from the standard phantom 3 not having light bridge and a lesser 2.7k camera on on board does the PRO version at least still support IOC, POI, follow me and waypoint features? Cheers :--)
Hi!!! Thank you very much for sharing and creating these videos... greetings from Mexico. I wanted to ask you a question about the Course Lock: I find it very difficult to make a straight line and turn the camera simultaneously, for example, as you made your video in the "castle", any advice?
+Fusion Playa del Carmen Practice! That's basically it! And next to that you can adjust your settings a bit, watch this tutorial of mine: th-cam.com/video/iqah4rLrmFs/w-d-xo.html Stay tuned and fly safe!
Isn't this the perfect case for the Typhoon H? It seems quite complicated to use course lock when it would be much easier to place the Typhoon H in a straight pattern and pan the camera, something the Phantom 4 cannot do.
Thank you so much. I've just started my music ministry.... I don't have anything to donate right now... but I can bless you my brother.... Go ahead brother.... God bless your project...
I liked the ability to select Course Lock with the Phantom FC-40... just a flip of the switch (after once turning on the IOC ability in the programming by computer software) However, has something changed in this software? Or is the P3Standard different than other P3s? It's 4/15/2017 and I don't get that IOC menu to popup. I cannot find the way to turn on course lock while flying my P3S. Did DJI make changes in the app? I have v3.1.7
A question. If you set course lock when the quad is in front of you, what happens when the quad gets behind you? Do forwards and backwards and right/left become reversed?
Tom, just donated just to ask a question I can't seem to get the course lock to function properly. I do the setting correctly but when I go to test it on my phantom 3 pro and do filming in the course lock and turn the camera the drone starting veering of the course can you help me out?
Hey Jim, thanks for your donation. Please join my forum, as it's a lot easier to get problems solved over there: facebook.com/groups/tomstechtime. Did you try a cold IMU calibration already? Stay tuned and fly safe!
I really enjoyed this cosplay!
uh little z this is an interesting cosplay
lol yeah
Very
Rank beginner here! I recently discovered your channel and find your videos most informative; thank you for posting them.
Tom I really do enjoy tour tutorials online. You are my new best friend from long distant. Thank you, Mitch.

Thanks for this...it really helps. But this video demonstrates a fly-by -- how to make a clean orbit around an object? That is also a big cinematic move to learn.
Thanks Tom! I always return to TTT as I find your videos very well done.
Wow, thanks for this tip! Looks like super professional camera work. Glad to know it's a simple effect to achieve.
thank you for this explanation. i've had a phantom for a long time and didn't really know about this as much. i'm definitely going to get better shots with this. THNX!
I really enjoy all your Phantom videos and I've learned so much....Thank you and keep up the good work.Since there is no F mode on the Phantom 4 what setting are we supposed to use to use Course Lock?
i was wondering what course lock was, im used to it being called headless mode
Yeah same I have a Syma drone and they always call it headless mode
Yeah me too! I have a Syma x8g
Thank you Tom, I recently got my hands on a Phantom 3 and are enjoying your series. Today I will be going out and doing my first Course Lock Flight.
Thanks Tom, this is the very easy and clear one i have seen about course lock in youtube.
This was a really clearly guided thank you!
This video was really helpful in understanding the function of Course Lock as well as its practical application. Your videos are well done and have saved me lots of time in learning about drones and safe flight.
how do you do this on the P 4
I can't find course lock mode on DJI Spark. But your video tittle does. What am i missing?
Channel is excellent and very instructive. can you tell me whether the F mode drone uses GPS and whether flight restrictions in height and distance?
Useful, energic, easy understanding tutorial. Thanks a lot dude.
When u are using curse lock, can u go up or down, I mean the altitude ?
I assume this applies to the mavic now aswell? Love your work !
good videos Tom. I bought my first phantom 3 standard and watch your videos all the time. Thanks for the info
Is this also how I would do it on the MavicPro? I was honestly nervous to try it without an open field just in case. Thx it was a great tutorial
+Tom's Tech Time Please make more videos on more complicated features of the DJI Phantom 3
Hi Tom, your videos are really professional and very educational. You explained course lock really, reall well. Thanks a lot and keep up the good work.
If you like tacky bs
Hi Tom, I truly enjoy your review on all dji drone series. My question to you is can I fly the Mavic pro without the bubble lens cover? Thanks.
Hi Tom, are you going to cover the Inspire Pro?
Can the p3 advance do target lock or follow a specific person?
can either Tom or anyone else tell me, what sound track was used from 2:01 onwards. I tried to shazam it with no success...any tipp appreciated...Thanks
you have been my only source of how to use my new phantom 3 thanks for the great videos!
Does the quad still use GPS to keep in in one place when you are using IOC?
Tom went fishing for dolphin the fish not the porpoise finding the fish is often a problem from the deck of the boat the horizon is only about three or 4 miles away. It would be a good application if we could send a drone out to look for fish and convey back the location. You would only have to go three or 4 miles out
Why don't you just buy them at the supermarket if you're that lazy.
Hi I am new owner of P3P ,,please, let me know if the course lock can work with indoor flight ? I am also wondering if the F mode can be used with indoor flight even if there is no GPS signal ...thank you for all efforts made to broadcast these interesting videos

Hallo Tom. Do I have to adjust the courslock every time I go to a differend place? Greetings, Jan Verhoeven Holland
does all of this settings available on dji 3 standard???
is it available for indoor shooting at ATTI mode ?
Hey Tom What graphics software are you using.....thx
interesting... just wondering if the P4 has a similar function
Is there a way to disable left and right movements of the right stick while in Coarse Lock??
Isn't this the same as "headless mode" in other quads?
Great job. Your tutorials are awesome. I'm sure you're the one to ask: If you begin flying, supose at the edge of a cliff that is 50 meters above sea level,, and then you want to take Phantom to only 10 meters above the sea level to fly around a boat, I guess the altitude wil detect a minus 40 meters. Do you think this feature would work?. In general terms, waht happens when the Phantom fly "below" the home point? Thanks in advance for your response.
Great Video, sub added. Is the phantom not as stable while in course lock compared to manual?
Hi, can I ask how to do it with the Spark? Thanks
Thanks for the information. im just about to buy a phantom 3pro.Need all the information i can get. Hello from Australia.
Another excellent video Tom. You're my go to for refreshing up or just to learn a new tip.
really excellent tutorials helps alot before the big investement of the phantom4 keep up the good work
You make EXCELLENT informative videos sir!
One thing not mentioned is that a cross wind will effect the flight path with course lock. The a/c will drift off the set course. At least ways, it does on my P3a. Great vid Tom. Thanks
Tom Will this also work on the phantom standard??? I'm trying to set it,, aggggg I'm a newbe,,, can't do it,,, agggg

You are great. your vids are informative to the point, very cool and professionally edited. Thank you :)
Which iPad Mini are you using?
Tom I really do enjoy tour tutorials Great work Thanks
Can you do this with the phantom 3 standard
So it's like headless mode?
The P4 controller does not have a F mode, where would it be.
Well done! This is the best explanation I have seen. Keep up the great work.
Tom ,I 'm waiting this tutorial ,which is great , for the Mavic Pro, great teaching. Thanks !!
Thanks for the explanation - saved me a lot of trial and error and/or looking for info in the manuals - dji P3 Adv.

Excellent explanation, sir! The best one I've seen. Liked and subscribed
Up in the right corner there is a button ,, a and E with a lock pic ,,what does that do please
Isn't this the perfect case for the Typhoon H? It seems quite complicated to use course lock when it would be much easier to place the Typhoon H in a straight pattern and pan the camera, something the Phantom 4 cannot do.
can we fly in no flying zone by any mean, as near airport.
Thank you so much. I've just started my music ministry.... I don't have anything to donate right now... but I can bless you my brother.... Go ahead brother.... God bless your project...
such a fun mode. It makes the video look professional
I liked the ability to select Course Lock with the Phantom FC-40... just a flip of the switch (after once turning on the IOC ability in the programming by computer software)

Also my friend why does my controller have different markings on switching on the back that is different than yours mine is p/s/a/ ...
A question. If you set course lock when the quad is in front of you, what happens when the quad gets behind you? Do forwards and backwards and right/left become reversed?
I'd imagine it stays the same, as it is locked to a hypothetical line
very helpful video, Greetings from Greece!
Very nice videos.Keep up the good work you have helped A LOT!!!
very helpful.
welcome Downunder.
I just got back from the park using the poi function tutored by you.
thanks again
thanks for the clear explanation and demonstration of real life a application!
Great job. I've learned a bunch watching your videos. Thank you!
It does not work in the way you describe, probably due to changes in the firmware. Have you got a updated tutorial ?
In phantom 3 pro in ( F mode ) Course lock + attitude mode (A) can work how???
