DJI FLIP DON'T WORRY IT'S A DJI - DJI FLIP - GREAT DRONE
FOR INTROS, LOGOS AND VIDEOS GO HERE - gonnagoforit.com/
So much doom and gloom!
So DJI have launched their new drone, The Flip. It has come in for some harsh justified criticism of late, it's not been a great start for the poor little Flip, there have been many complaints about a whole number of issues, from charging the batteries to glitches with the obstacle avoidance.
All I can say is, thank God it's a DJI. Their team of technocrats are collating monitoring the glitches and I am 100% sure there will be a number of updates to sort the issues.
The drone has a fantastic camera, the folding arms are one of it's kind within the DJI drones themselves, it does what the Neo does (and more) all the DJI products are pretty much unbeatable for their quality, DJI's customer service are probably the best among drone companies, so if you have purchased a Flip, they will sort it, and you have probably got one of the best drones on the market.

Hi Andy I've not heard you mention Randel for a while hope you two haven`t fallen out 🤣🤣🤣🤣. Still think the flip is in nowhere land you have the neo for flogging and the mini 4 for cinematic shots and the flip i think they wanted to do both but i`m not sure it does it well enough. Well not yet.
Hi John. Old Randall I still out there running around for me 😂😂 He's as keen as mustard! 😂 As for the Flip, it's almost in the class of it's own, it's not a Neo, and it's not a mini 4, but it will be a good drone for the vlogger, give it time, DJI will sort it out. I don't think it would last long in my hands. 😢
Love your videos it's different youtube videos are getting boring you take risks Love it I've been flying drones for 6 years now and I'd definitely crash my drone flying like you do i could see your videos in movies very talented mate cheers col from Sydney Australia 🇦🇺
I'm starting to get this feeling that the dogs are not the mad ones 🤣🤣 The name should be the English Dogs and the Mad Man 🤣🤣😉😉
😂😂😂 I think you're right. 😂 2 mad dogs and a crazy English man.. 😂
@@MadDogsandEnglishman 🤣🤣
The Neo screams, yet DJI have not done anything to fix the high pitch which limits where the drone can be used, every UA-camr shows the Neo in places where there are no other people around because it's so loud and high pitched, the Flip while better is still way too loud. However, there are at least aftermarket props for the Neo that reduce that high-pitched noise so that it's less annoying. Software can not fix that, and aftermarket props for the Flip are unlikely to be available. The Neo is only 135gm, so yeah, not great in the wind, but the Flip is a similar size and weight to the m3p, and yet the m3p performs much better in the wind. The battery life on the Flip seems poor, considering its 20% more capacity than the standard battery on the m3/4p and yet has less flight time. Again, software can not fix that.
The Neo is even compatible with the 1103 11800kv happy model motors. And it can Acro. The video quality is more than enough for social media. These 3 things sold it to me.
Hi, Greg. It is a loud drone, and it can be quite annoying at times, but it is what it is, if it was possible to make it less noisy they would, but because it's so small and props have to spin much faster tan the bigger models, therfore it's the noisiest drone in their fleet of drones. As for the Flip, no update can enhance the flight time, but it's a great improvement on the 15 minutes or so mins I get with the Neo. 😊
@@MadDogsandEnglishman Gemfan make a 5 blade prop that fits the Neo and makes a big improvement to sound levels.
@gregb1599 Hi, Greg. I have seen them, I'll go get .some and try them out. Amazon, here I come! 😆😆
@MadDogsandEnglishman You need to get M1.2 6mm screws, or if you are really careful, you can countersink the props to fit the original screws. That is what I did, but I ruined a few props as if you drill even 1 mm too much, and then it's too deep that the screws will stop the prop spinning!
Hi Andy, wonderful relaxing video! I always look Forword to your videos. See you on the next one. Cheers!
Glad you enjoyed it, Dan. More to come. 😊
I think that DJI should be very encouraged by your long term loyalty and positivity toward their products. They should definitely consider providing you with some of their products (such as the Flip and Neo) in order to test and maybe give suggestions on possible improvements and consumer advice. Hopefully, a representative from their company will possibly view some of your videos and show some interest. You surely deserve a consideration since your positive experiences has provided quality advertising for them. The video today (as an example) does an excellent job of showcasing the impressive capabilities of the Neo. I certainly hope they reach out to you soon. Thanks for sharing another outing with us, entertaining and uplifting. See you on the next one. That cagey Lesser Spotted British Yeti must have been sleeping in today that lazy slacker.
Hi, Terry. I hope all is well with you and yours. DJI are the best company when it comes to drones and their vloging cameras. I have nothing but praise for them. It's just a shame the US are going to ban them from selling their drones at some point, perhaps as early as this year. As for the Yeti, he'll be out again soon, I'm sure, I just can't fit him into my backpack! 😂😂
Great video buddy. You're skills are 2nd to none. I did see some deer 🦌 on one of your other videos. Can't wait for the next one m8 👍
I always enjoy what I do here. It's a win win all around.
Nice videos, I have tried this approach with just the phone and it is not easy...
Yeah. The drone takes it to another level. I'm just getting into these DJI drones and loving it but I know I have a lot to learn. It's a great hobby if you can afford it. They aren't cheap with extra batteries and remote but you get what you pay for and they are a great drone 🙈🙉🙊
I've never tried flying the Neo with my phone, the signal may not be strong enough. 😢 The RC unit is much better, it's a great little drone. 😊
The Mini 3 in the fog looked cool, without the Home point that would’ve been difficult to get back. Thankfully people are tired of the “Woke” culture and will continue to vote out these destructive politicians. Los Angeles and California in general are a perfect example of failed “Woke”policies and leadership. Thanks for the great content Andy ! 👍
Hi there. Thanks for watching, the mini 3 did well, I did think for a moment the fog may mess with it's sensors, but it handled it very well, just a shame I could see much, either wqy it qas such a lovely place to be in. As for the woke culture, I'm.glad Trumpmis going to cancel them! 🤣🤣 I'm sick to my back teeth of them. They have been so destructive for the world! They are the reason why we have such devision. Thanks once again.
Great video Andy.
@@Ordinary7-oc6wc Many thanks, I enjoy what I do.
Get the n3 goggles their great with neo.
I will have to get a pair, I'll save up. lol
A folded flip is still bigger than a neo! But its flights are longer and the camera is substantially better. The Neo can unfortunately display weird behaviour when used with motion controller at dawn or dusk or over water, ice etc. Having said all that your control of the Neo here in a dense forest is mighty impressive, and goggle flight is just great fun!
@NickStaib Hi, Nick. Thank for watching. This was fun. The Neo has had a few issues as has the Flip, but I do believe the Flip will work out well. The DJI team are on to it. They will get it right.
Was there music on the boat ? I’m looking for a music free boat trip
No music on this boat, thankfully!!
DJI Flip has a better camera than the NEO BUT you have the mini 3 Pro which is a similar camera so you have the best of both worlds and certainly don't need a DJI flip..Enjoying your videos thanks 👍🏻
Hello, Pete. I am certain that the Flip will turn out to be a great drone. Once they have ironed out the glitches, it will be perfect! The camera on it is one of the best, so I am sure the DJI team are working hard to resolve the problems.
Stunning video. I may have to get me one. Thanks for creating such valuable content.
@jonperry1524 You are very welcome. I'm out there again today. There's so much enjoyment to be had. Thanks for taking the time to watch and to comment.
Great video, Andy. It was wonderful to see the deer. Thank you, Andy. Cheers!
Hi, Dan. It gives me great pleasure to share my day with you and others.
@@MadDogsandEnglishman Thank you so much, Andy!
I agree. The Flip does have way points and it seems to get confused by mist, mistaking it as an object and stopping
@Sky_High_Neo I'm glad I haven't purchased one. It's getting one heck of a hammering in videos and comments..folks aren't happy with it.
04 transmission ,90 metres that's about right
No good in wind or fog and dead slow
am now back in the UK and had a go at flying it outside for first time and it was a bit tricky tbh for about half hour until i stuck the goggles on and it was absolutely amazing once i had got used to it
I do need to get a pair of Goggles, perhaps when the Neo 2 comes out, I can buy them both. I bet it's an amazing experience. I would hope to see a whole lot more if I were to get a pair.
@ I think the motion controller is more limited but easier I hear. The goggles make flying it a piece of cake
@ i could meet up sometime if you fancy so you can try the goggles to see if they are for you before you buy. I find them fantastic
@@MarriedToTheKGB Hi, that sounds like a good idea. When the NEO 2 is ready for launch, I will try and to contact you. Are you local to Wiltshire?
i love my flip...wont replace the neo... love its design...handles very well...comes along with my mini 4 pro ...suppose its what you want from a drone ..like marmite..love it or hate it
@@shaunmk I'm not sure where the Flip fits in. It's not a Neo or Avata, nor is it a Mini 3/4 it's more like the Mini series, but the Mini 4 does as much of not more than the Flip. The camera is exactly the same as the 4, and why we buy the drone.
It looks like you didn't give the neo a chance to do its GPS lock... that might be the main reason.
Hi. All I very well with the Neo. It's my favourite drone of all the drones I have.
The Neo just needs gps put into it, the size is great fun for flying through small spaces and holes. I wish dji would make the avata2 compatible with the RC2 just like the Neo.
@RayRay-zc2ed I'm waiting for the Neo 2 to come out..that will be a drone I'll be very interested in buying. A better camera, more memory, and a longer flight time. It would almost make the Avata a drone not worth buying.
Andy, love your channel and videos! I’m not a fan of the AI music in general, but the instrumental music in this video seemed to fit better than the rock music you’ve been using. I do love some good rock music, especially 80’s inspired, but it was kind of distracting. Just my opinion. I will continue watching your videos regardless. Cheers!
Hi, Robert. I like all different styles of music, I have to agree with you,the music here is good,it fits, and as for AI, will try to steer clear of it, I will not generate any more AI music on the website. Thanks for watching, Robert. I appreciate it.
Hello Andy and thank you for starting my Sunday morning off with a beautiful and entertaining walk in the woods, always look forward to it. Very well done my friend. And as for the concept of "AI", I am definitely not a fan of AI at all. I consider it an extremely dangerous path to go on and I am very concerned about about it actually. If anyone's goal is to remove the "human" from humanity, what does that say about the future of our planet? Living in an artificial reality is surely nothing but a fool's game in my opinion. Well, I guess the world will do what the world will do and there is little that can actually be done to stop it. Have a great day and thanks again for including us in yours. See you on the next one.
@campfire52 Hi, Terry. I 100% agree with your comment. It's now getting to the point that folks can use AI to mimic ones voice! I've had it done to me, and you can hardly tell the difference! Video here. rumble.com/v5jyzoj-diary-of-gollum-the-sidekick-chronicles.html?e9s=src_v1_upp It's a frightening world we are being taken into. It seems the guys with the money and power want this to happen. Without going into conspiracies, I think they could turn AI against us and use it to do pretty much all the jobs and tasks humans can do. I struggle to see where humans will fit in. I think the best days are sadly behind us, I'd hate to be a youngster growing up in today's world. We once had freedom away from the spying eyes of an AI camera, I guess it's why I like the wilderness so very much.
That is a fantastic forest to fly in,i have to say 👍👍
It's just such a wonderful place to be! I hope to revisit it again tomorrow.
@@MadDogsandEnglishman look fwd to watching 👍
From what I have gathered from the review by The Drone Creative is that the flip is great at doing what the Neo does without a controller but with a higher quality camera like the Mini. It suffers on not being robust enough for the flights you do and there are a few issues when tracking. Im guessing its fine for content creators who just want to film themselves or grab drone shots in open spaces.
Hi, Shep. I have to agree with you, I'm hoping a Neo 2 will be launched at some point. Now that's a drone I'd be really interested in! I'm saving up my pennies now!
@@MadDogsandEnglishman I think my interest would be high for the NEO 2 :)

i think that wood looks wide enough for your mini 3 drone.
There's no way am I flying the Mini 3 in there. It wouldn't last a minute. 😮😮😅
yes plenty of deer there great capture.

Totally with you on being in forests and woodlands. I live on the edge of the new forest and sometimes I take it for granted and wish I could visit all the other wonderful woodlands in the uk but I don’t drive so it’s not easy. I can’t remember have you been to Grovely Wood just outside Salisbury in Wilton ? You would love that place
@newforestexplorer Hi, I've not seen that wood. I will Google Earth it and see its location. It's another one on the long list of woods and forests I want to visit. The New Forest is exceptional, I visited there last tmyear, I have a video on my channel.

I have the same problem with access to woods in the south west uk. Only 1 or 2 places near me with public access. The rest are too small to probably bother with. Also restricted by not being able to fly on Dartmoor which is a real shame as I would love to fly there.
Great exploration and those deer 5:50 where moving fast 💨 It’s really cool how your getting through those tight gaps. 👍
@@WildCaptures Hi. I just love it out here. The feeling of freedom I get, nothing else does it. To see the forest up close like this is amazing to me. Thanks for watching. 👍
I've not had a chance to fly my Flip since last time. Busy getting car sorted for MOT and other stuff. I don't really intend to use it like the Neo in confined spaces. It has a better camera (not fully tried it yet). It's shame that reviewers have attacked it. It has it uses and might even replace my Mini 4K. I think people are expecting to fly like the Neo with it. My Neo has bounced off stuff like trees when in follow or direction track mode. Of course people who have no experience of the Flip, watch and read reviews, then repeat that to everyone they know. 'A little knowledge can be dangerous" lol. I have 5 batteries for my Neo as the battery life is so bad. 15 minutes at the best.
Hi, Nitchy. I can't really condemn or condone the Flip as I've never flown one. But for me and what I do, it won't work. I've flown my mini 2 in the forest. It did okay until it hit something. I'd like to see how the Flip performs, but I can't really justify the cost.
@@MadDogsandEnglishman I don't think the Flip is intended to be used exactly like the Neo anyway. I took the Neo down to Cornwall for a ride on the Camel trail. It was too windy for the Neo, but the Flip would have been ok. I basically bought the Flip because of the better camera compared to my other drones. It has it's place in usage for that as I like my photography. People need to look at what it can do rather than do a side by side comparison.
You make some good points as usual. However, I am seriously considering the Flip, the reason being the much better camera and video settings as well as the prop guards. I work as a tv director, mostly on drama production, and it would be perfect to use amongst actors or presenters without any safety issues. I can image the flip tracking alongside someone at normal height as well as any higher geography shots. I wouldn't be concerned about the prop noise as we can record a guide track of any dialogue and add it (ADR) in post. If the Neo had a better camera, then I would be more than happy to use it, but it doesn't unfortunately...
@FfilmiauFflur Hi. For what I do, the Flip just won't work (I don't think) I'd love to see how it got on, but the design of the drone wouldn't lend itself to the Forest as good as the Neo. However, what you want it for would work well. I'm seriously thinking of getting one, but it would break my heart if I busted it up. I'll see what goes.
I got the Flip just a couple of days ago. I think people are being a little unfair by simply comparing it to the Neo. The noise is a lot less irritating than the Neo, which is the only complaint I have about it, but the Flip is still loud, though no more than the Mini 4k I have. You made a good comment about the use near people, although I don't intend to do much of that.
@@UKMitchyagreed. I also think that some reviewers comparing it to the Mini 4 pro is unfair. To me isn’t it meant to be a hybrid of a Neo and M4P? I think it does that well.
@@syncroG60golf I will hopefully be getting out later this week, just having car MOT problems at the moment. I'm going to try it in the same woods I used the Neo in, but also some other places as I want to use it more for photography as well. I haven't had a chance to try the photo part of the Flip yet. Hopefully people will realise it's not just a big Neo. About all I have done is a speed, vertical climb and noise teat. Video on my channel if you are interested.

@@MadDogsandEnglishman There ya go ✈
My opinion on the dji flip is that it's not as tough as the neo. Definitely not the drone for the woods. The only thing done to Dji Flip is new sensors. Slightly improved camera. I witnessed a guy flying a dji flip and flew it into a tree. The front propeller area snapped. So definitely not a structurally made drone. Which visually seemed low-speed collision. Definitely not Djis' best drone design. Unlike the DJi Neo, it's a robust machine. U can take it where humans can't go. And u can crash into trees without it snapping a leg. And u definitely test the neo to its limit 😂😂😂😂 Great video, as always, Andy. And I agree with your points on the Dji Flip.
Hi Doc. The guy must have been gutted to see his drone all busted up. I'll wait until the Neo 2 arrives on the market. I'm sure it'll be worth waiting for. Thanks for watching. 😊
@MadDogsandEnglishman He was pis***. Am the same, Andy. Neo 2 I would like more battery life from it.
Your Neo is set to hover at signal loss… it’ll still try to elevate and return on low battery…
@lukepadfield80 Ahhh.. I never thought of that. Good point. I did go into the settings and selected hover. Cheers, bud. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Good video dad x
@TrailBlazerUK Thanks, Ad. All the best for today, son. Love ya loads x
I bought a flip but I kind of wish I hadn’t and find myself using the Neo for proximity flights and through woodland like you do, and mostly the Mini4 for anything else… The Neo is so resilient… I was flying low over a pond in woodland and it did that weird thing Neo’s do over water with hardly any GPS and it suddenly belts off at a million miles per hour and hits something… It was under a foot of water for nearly 2 minutes before I found a stick and fished it out… It was still on and ranting at me in Chinese so I took the battery out, shook as much water off as I could and sat it on the heater vent in my truck for half an hour and it’s fine! Don’t think the Flip would fare so well…
Hi, Luke. The Neo is an absolute machine! The Flip would have been a gonner for sure, the Neo does some strange things over water, I myself have experienced this, it to landed in water, I thought it was ruined, but after drying it out, it fired back to life. I don't think I'll be bothering with the Flip.
Beautiful scenery, I envy you to be able to operate these drones…
@heavenswindsong Its a lovely place to be, Nancy. 😃
I don't think the FLIP would last long in the woods one crash and you and the dogs would be going home, like you say the gimble and propeller joints are not built for that sort of impact. Hope Dji send you one thou ill keep my fingers crossed for you.👍
Hi, John. I hope you're well. I have to agree, I'm crossing my fingers. You never know, DJI may send one out. If they do, then I'll be experimenting with it.
I will publicly repent of being envious of all the evergreens you are enjoying on these hikes. It really makes a winter landscape look so much better. I also thank GOD that here where I am in MI we have missed all the deadly weather that much of the country experiences year after year. It is so easy to take things for granted until they are gone. God is however great no matter we are spared disaster or not. He will be with us to strengthen our inner man. GBY
@rdutridge Amen, Janet. I could spend all my time on here. I just love being at peace. Just a wonderful place to be. Our weather is set for cold in the coming week. Arghh. GBY, Janet.
Mantap 👍✌️
Hi NEO funs! I bought the first neo combo, and now I intend to buy FPV equipments…What do you suggest: goggles N3 or 3, fpv 3 controller or rc Motion 3? Cheaper combo is goggles n3 and motion 3, in my opinion, best cost benefits….hugs from a brazilian guy in Japan!
Where is dji flip?
@amazingWorld-qm6bk It's in the shop for now. I don't think it's for me after doing the research I've done.
A very entertaining video Andy. That was a definite sighting of a genuine English Yeti out in that forest today sir. I know my Yeti's and that was definitely not a fake, the real deal for sure. And a fine looking and active specimen he was. You finally got him on video! Amazing work there Inspector Clouseau! And you still had enough time to put together another great video of the forest too. Impressive flying and impressive filming. Thank you as always for your efforts my good friend. See you on the next one.
Hi, Terry. Well I knew he was in here somewhere. It was just a matter of time before I finally got him on camera. I wonder if he will show up in tomorrow's video up at Savernake Forest? 🤣🤣 It just goes to show, that we still have some wildlife in our majestic Forest today! I have heard that the poor chap isn't feeling too well, so he may just leave his costume at home.. Sorry, I meant he may not show up as he has a cold. Talk soo, Terry. Thanks for watching, and for you very amusing comment (made my day actually) 🤣🤣🤣
Hi Andy, loving the Neo videos but I'm intrigued as to how you are mounting your DJI Action to the trees? I saw one with a strap which is fair enough but I could have sworn I also saw some where it seems to be affixed to the tree with nothing? Is it some sort of spike mount? Cheers in advance.
Hi bud, I search out a tree where there was a slot, I had my DJI Action cam on a spike mount, and it fitted snugly into a slot in the tree. so I used that to film from. I must apologise for using the AI music in my latest 2 videos. I am looking to move away from this to more conventional music. Is this site any good? Please take a look and let me know.
