Hello, Marcus, from Wisconsin again. Enjoyed your video and narrative as usual. Given your evaluation today and the previous video I saw with your comments about the Nano +, I am glad I listened carefully to what you and others have said and made the DJI Mini 2 my first drone. Will look forward to your next video. Cheers.
Thank you, George! The Mini 2 is a great product. I'm really looking forward to the Mini 3!
Out at the point today. You weren't kidding about the skeeters. I fly Hubsan 2 plus. Haven't had any disconnects. Bench marked 8000
Bought it on your original reviews thamks
Thank you, John! The Zino 2 Plus is Hubsan's best drone.
Hello again Marcus. Yet another great video and you are so blessed with some great locations where you are, I am so jealous. I agree with you about the shot of the side of the canyon, it is so dramatic. The Autel Evo Nano+ does have the edge, even with the higher price bracket. Thanks again for the video, I really enjoy looking at them…👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Thank you Vince!!
Marcus, You always do thorough test. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you! I appreciate your comment!
Great drone comparison uncle Marcus . The colts on that Evo nano + is much nicer . Man I love that location 👊🏻
Thank you, Michael!! I love flying at the canyon!
The mini2 is still a good buy for 2022. I watched your video on the mini2 you didn't have connection loss whatsoever. Anyways thanks for sharing your flight. God bless!!!
I agree Sammy! I love the Mini 2. Thank you my friend!
I never tire of this canyon. So beautiful.
Thank you, Chewie! It is a great spot to fly!
The video footage from the Nano+ is stunning!
The Nano+ has a great camera!
Hi there Marcus.......I AM JEALOUS....Takes you 40 minuets to get to that location. Me it will take 7 hours from Vancouver Wa. Lucky for me I have relatives in La Grande Ore. to make a pit stop....LOL. At least you got one thing it right. Holding that note paper under the paper weight....LOL All aside.....I thought the Hubsan had a better video. Seemed brighter to me. When I get my drone. ( still deciding) Will definitely be paying Dedication Point a visit and hopefully lay an eye ball on one another....See you on the next one. Have a nice week.
Ha! I know that I'm lucky Jim! Thank you my friend.
Awesome comparison video! What a place to fly!
It is indeed a great place to fly.
Great review Marcus it would be good if the nano had the battery of the zino but I must say the quality of video from the autel nano is so good. Until the next video Marcus 😁👍🇬🇧
Thank you! I agree, the Nano video looked really good!
Another great video from Marcus let’s get that bird in the air
Heck yes Robert!
This is a really cool spot. I didn't know this was in Idaho....
I love flying there!
One of these days, I'm gonna fly there! Just not this weekend, I'm on call...
In my opinion flying down by the river is the best location for a good video
Hey Tania! We'll get out there soon! The weather is improving!
The main camera on the tripot has by far the best image quality. Maybe a white balance issue on both drones?
Awesome job my friend beautiful location for drone flight!! Great comparison Marcus !! The Autel nano is much better !! Camera 📸 quality signal all ! I think!!
Thank you, DJ Aleks!!! I agree the Nano+ did a great job.
@@IdahoQuadcopter oooyes
Nice one mate brilliant info all my hubsans add problems ex my 501s great video as always mate don 🤠🇬🇧👍👍👍👍💜👌🇺🇦
Thank you, Don! Cheers!
How about jello problems on the Nano?
Ooh he’s off to my fave Marcus location, Snake River Canyon 👏👏👏
It's so much fun Jackie!!
It's seems like the nano is leaps ahead, all that said so glad to see the snake river canyon again, great review once again Marcus and a pleasure to watch
Thank you! Yes, the Nano was the winner here.
Hi Marcus, I presume this is our friendly scammers!!
Hi Marcus hope you are having a good day. What is the elevation from where you are to the bottom of the snake river? great video.
You know I'm not sure. This area is about 2200 feet above sea level.
No contest here. The Autel video performance is amazing. Beautiful location.
Thank you very much Christopher!
Great video Marcus I received the Hubsan Zino Mini Pro but unfortunately experienced a lot of problems disconnection USB also GPS problems I have sent it back just not reliable enough.
Yes, the little Hubsan needs some work. Thank you Keith!
Hey Marcus so sorry why your zino mini pro disconnecting sometimes. Mine never disconnected. Really strange
I'm glad that yours is working well!
another great review Marcus you did a killer job with those. there's no doubt that the Nano has way better video quality. keep up the good work
Thank you, Matt! I had fun putting that video together.
@@IdahoQuadcopter You're welcome
great vid i have a husband ace se really like it.
The Hubsan Ace is a good drone. 👍
Nice. I'm sure this is helpful to non dji pilots.
I am headee to Hailey and Gilmore ghost town tomorrow to film with my Mavic 3
Have a great flight!
Great video …the nano really performed camera wise much better ..snake river canyon is always a great view …thanks for sharing
Thank you, Jimi! Yes, the Nano Plus did quite well.
Nice flying
Thank you for the visit.
It's good to have more drone options now although Im still sticking to the more familiar plus tried and tested DJI.
good video! ........if i may ask, i need a decent drone to start a travel video channel but, I know almost nothing about them. what drone would you recommend in terms of video quality and durability? any suggestions appreciated!
Thank you! The DJI Mini SE is a reasonably priced drone that takes great video.
I wonder how the Mini 3 will change the game here. Looking forward!
You're so polite, Marcus. That leaves an opening for loudmouths like me to say "If you like spending two painstaking hours calibrating drones on a regular basis. Then I have one for you here." Hum. This may not be a good marketing angle.
Ha! I hear you Bill! 😀
Hello, I had a hell of time with disconnection problems and finally realized that if I put my phone in airplane mode no disconnect problems. Shortly after realized that I saw that in the intro page warning it says to put the phone in flight mode. I saw all the problems online and several emails to Hubsan and they never asked if I put the phone in Airplane mode. Several flights and no disconnections at all.
Thank you, Jim! That is a great tip.
Did you have the HDR on the Zino? I think the HDR does almost nothing but in terms of sharpness it seems to be slightly better with HDR Off and the "natural" mode like you used.
BTW the new firmwares for the zino mini pro, it stores the image settings for most of the parameters and it will be the default settings for your next flight, unless you change them (even bit rate is stored and reused - that started to be a bug in previous firmware that it was showing 100mbps but was recording at 7.3mbps but I think it's fixed on 1.4.2)
I don't remember whether I was in HDR mode or not.
I might have missed it, but what about the Nano+ vs. DJI Mini2? Nort a fair fight?? Not comparable drones? What do you think? Thanks for sharing and stay safe!!
Hey Doug. I compared the Mini 2 and the Nano+ back in January. With the improvements in the Nano+, it's time to do it again. Thank you!!
@@IdahoQuadcopter I'll go find that one. Thanks
I think that issue of Zino mini pro loosing connection is not poor signal but some bug that crashes something in drone communication software, and I would say you could try going much further away because of that is really a bug it will fail any time even when you are very close to drone. I know that if you go to the bit rate settings and quickly press the + or - button in succession like 8 or 10x you will get a USB disconnect and that is also a bug and not poor signal. I reported this bug to Hubsan on a previous version of firmware but didn't receive any feedback and I believe it's still not solved on current version.
It's really unfortunate. The little Zino Mini Pro could have been a great drone.
And can you compare the prize too , thanks ! The one who wrote on the ground is so happy that was seen on your. Videos … He may thank you !
Thanks for another great video. Hopefully the DJI Mini 3 will have a fantastic camera, longer battery life, a remote controller with a built-in screen, and keep the price under $1000. I also wish they would skip the obstacle avoidance, but I know I am in the minority on that one. I also don't want an included SD card or ND filters, because those things would raise the price, and I don't find them necessary.
Thank you, James! We'll see what the Mini 3 brings to the table. It should be good.
Hi Marcus it was like chalk and cheese 🧀 as they say. Nano really should off against there other drone. Incredible place that canyon and it’s great to see you flying there. Have you even gone down to the snake 🐍 river to fly the drone or is it possible. Keep up the good work. Looking forward to the next one
Thank you, Michael! Yes, I have a few videos where I've flown from down in the canyon. I do enjoy flying there.
Well done Marcus great work. I see the mavic 3 has got another update i think 🤔 signal update
Does either of these drones have zoom capabilities in all flight models?
They both have digital Zoom.
Thank you for another great review. I really wanted the Zino to be a good drone. However as you mentioned, you buy a camera drone for the footage you take or intend to take! The disconnection issue and the lack of recording renders the Zino literally useless. Obstacle avoidance is unreliable at best.
I am glad I opted for the DJI Mini 2 for my first drone. In my opinion it can still hold it's own. Looking forward to your next review. That landscape is breathtaking.👍
Thank you! You cannot go wrong with that Mini 2.
Hi Marcus, I always love seeing your videos of the Snake River. I get a "Gimbal Not Ready" message with my Autel EVO ll when there aren't enough satellites to fly. When there are enough satellites the message goes away. I would like to see a video of you flying the Hubsan Mini SE at the Snake River.
Thank you! I'll take the Hubsan Zino Mini SE out there one of these days.
Both drones exhibited what looked like jello in the recorded vide but it could be heat haze of the cannon causing that.
Autel Nano is still very slow.
30:35 walking there would make me nervous too!
Thank you for watching that far into the video Kris!! 😀
In my experience the precision landing of the Nano+ is fantastic. There needs to be a fairly high contrast and recognizable take-off ground pattern for it to work well. it will even pause and say 'precision landing' and adjust and so on.
That is good to know. Thank you for watching.
@@IdahoQuadcopter Yes I will try to get a screen capture of what I have seen.. I have not seen it on any of the reviews yet, unless I am dense.
My nano plus does that gimbal self checking. I also get false obstacle readings when flying.. I think it's the sun but idk 100% but I still love flying mine
Autel has steadily improved the Nano+. I like mine too.
The Nano+ had about as many issues as the Zino Mini did when it was first released. I almost bought one at the time but did not due to it's many problems. It looks like Autel has corrected most of them in firmware updates while Hubsan has lagged behind in their getting their drone corrected. To bad if it worked the way it should it would have eaten a big share of the market that both DJI and Autel has with their mini drones.
Autel has made great strides with the Nano+. The Hubsan drone has been a disappointment.
@Zamhoidn Landshut have you already got Nano+? Nano x1.5 more expensive - is it worth it?
I’ve held back buying a Nano + because from what I understand it STILL does not have the features it was advertised with.
Nice To See You Again Marcus 👏 🤚 👏
Always A Pleasure To Watch Your Latest
Drone Reviews but Sadly For Me , Both
Drones Are Way Beyond My Budget 🥲
Thank you. The DJI Mini SE is a nice drone that is not too expensive.
Thanks Marcus , I already have the original Mini but not even the SE . Stay Safe 😷 and Please Keep Your
Nice Videos Rolling . I ' m From Singapore and really
Appreciate Your Great Snake River Shots .
Hope To Visit USA Someday 😁 🤗 😁
Hubsan is more realistic, Autel looks cinematically finished. What do you think about this perception? The cinematic colors can certainly be achieved in post-production or with a filter in front of the lens.
It's a very subjective thing. 👍
Chique 👍🏻
A year later 😅 Getting my brand new Autel Nano plus premium with 4 batteries today $599 at Costco 🎉
By the way that aereal message written with large stones reads Milagros I love You, (miracles) it is a common Latin woman's name. Also I own the original Hubsan Zino Pro (built like a tank) and still flies great.
Yeah, that Costco deal is great! Congratulations!
Glad i got the DJI. No problems no issues just fly.
I'm a big fan of the Mini 2!
So sad to see this disconnect issue continuing on the Zino. Saddest part is then your video file on the SD card gets corrupted when this takes place.
It’s very unfortunate because I think the image quality on the Zino might be a tad better overall. The detail & resolution are excellent along with the dynamic range. Either way, I guess it doesn’t really matter when the Zino is experiencing these major operational issues.
Yes, I'm not sure why Hubsan has not been able to cure the disconnect issues.
What! You lose the SD card footage!? Are you sure your card could handle high data processing?
Avoid big time yikes
@Zamhoidn Landshut hay mucho dji LOVE que se molesta por qué este mini, de hubsan, es el mejor mini del mercado, y creo que ni autel es mejor ni en cámara, y lo de los cortes de conexión a esta altura sabiendo que los provoca el cable y muchas veces es el celular que no suelen ser compatibles con la app, es ganas de buscarle los pelos a la calavera y más gente que de esto sabe más que yo. Sigue la campaña de desprestigio hacia este gran mini dron, un saludo.
I would like to see the Nano + and Mavic 3 side by side showing image quality. Same place same time!
Of course The Autel Evo Nano+is a better drone the other drone is a HUBSAN.
To go faster, set the gimbal to speed instead of camera
Yes, that is true.
No way I would consider getting the Hubsan with its disconnection and overheating problems. I would be livid if I lost my recorded footage due to the disconnections. There are better and more reliable alternatives out there than the Hubsan.
I agree. It's just not reliable.
About the disconnection problems you have with the Zino Mini Pro: do you still use the original Hubsan connector cable provided with the drone? I got the same issues with my one and I have completely resolved the problem replacing the cable. (all my flights with my Hubsan Zino Mini Pro on ua-cam.com/play/PLD1dM_Rj3cVoc2TrOm_ciKTNnkzc1uHov.html).
Thank you for your videos.
Greetings from France
I learned to use after market cables with Hubsan drones long ago. 🙂
Zino mini pro have more natural colors on video than Evo
But Autel Looks Like cinematic finish
Great comparison. How embarrassing this is for Hubsan, it’s a joke what they charge for this drone! Definitely ain’t no pro like they suggest. Some toy drones perform better than this
Thank you! Yes, I agree, the little Hubsan drone just is not up to the task.
Ok, since then, Hubsan has released new firmware 1.4.4 (for drone) and 1.1.9 for remote as well as app v2.2.8 (and 2.2.9 :) and from my tests it seems to have fixed the USB disconnection issue.. so if you could make a new test going veeeeery far away in Snake River Canyon with a full battery I expect it to go far without any issues... ( hopefully :) at least for me in one week I was getting disconnections in 2/3 of the flights and next week (after updates) I had not a single disconnect in 4 flights, here's the video from my last test ua-cam.com/video/lrsfNB6or54/v-deo.html
My last flight with the Zino Mini Pro was okay. No disconnects.
@@IdahoQuadcopter yep, they should better test the software before publishing, or even better release 2 versions, one called beta that may have new features but is still being tested (by them and some drone testers like all current zone mini pro owners at the moment ;) and then have a stable release that has been tested, passed all tests and might be 2 or 3 weeks behind in new functionalities but won't have some strange behavior or bugs that have been fixed before.. BTW did you try to go very far?
Image is much better on the Nano
I agree. 👍
Fun to fly learn something every flight air2 s army out
Thank you, Mike! I love that Air2S! 🙂
Buy air2s and you get what you pay 🤣😂 1inch sensor for same price
I agree. The Air 2S is the best value in drones today.
@@IdahoQuadcopter i find out something... Try to connect micro usb to micro usb phone, not usb c... Disconnect will be GONE... work for me😉
Can you get to the point without so many nonsense talk?
Both drones suck!!#@&!👎
