Hello All,

I'm super excited to be part of this great community.  I just picked up my Phantom 3 Pro yesterday, but I need a little help.  I want to get a 64gb memory card right away.  I found the one below on sale, but I don't know much about memory cards at this time even though I'm trying to reserch them.  Can you guys tell me please if the below memory card will fully support the Phantom 3 and 4K video?  Thanks in advance for all your help!

Eric

DJI Say a class 10 or UHS-1 rating is required. The card you listed does match this requirement. A quicm search does bring up people who say it works..

You bought a quality phantom uav why use anything other than the best choose one from the list sploodge supplied, remember the image you capture is the final take prior to editing.The card I use is from the list and is 4k supported its worth the extra. Have a good flight

I use Samsung EVO or PRO 64GB...I have tried other less expensive brands for both Drones and Phones but the cheaper ones have ALWAYS failed in the long run.  Some of them lasted 5 or 6 months, other really cheap ones (lexar and kingston) only lasted a few weeks.  i have found that with memory cards, especially ones that are going to be over-written repeatedly, the best performance comes from the higher priced name-brand cards.  I have had great success with Samsung and SanDisk...

Be careful and by from trusted site. There are knock-offs.  Check an official site first as to what the retail package should look like.
