I have a Phantom 3 Standard.   Is it normal for the camera to become warm when the coptor is turned on?

If you have it still sitting inside yes. I've never noticed it get that warm when flying as the wind moving over it keeps it cool. If you look at the top of it, you'll notice it has a small fins to keep it cool, but it needs air passing over it to be effective.
Edit: I think one of the models even has a small fan on the top to help assist in cooling.
