I've been looking at drones for 2 years, trying to find this type of video clarity, and picture clarity without the fisheye effect, this is the drone. I purchased this drone with two batteries for $350 and change in the United States, and I recommend it to anybody looking for a budget drone. I received it a week ago and I'm very pleased to see your video with updated information, thanks again. As always videos and information are awesome thanks for your time.
@@SW-Video I've flown mine three times since I've received it a week ago, the drones flight seems to be flawless the video is good they fixed several things like the speed of the gimbal rotation is less jerky now, the drone is a stable as it can be even in windy conditions it's rock solid, and the video is really flawless. For a drone with two batteries for under $400 I think it's a good value, best price and it's class.
@@mikebrach5412 : Two batteries at around 30 minutes flight time covers most hobbyist video and photo flights. Thanks Mike! I like and own DJI drones but I always like to see solid competition because it pushes them to do better and keep their prices realistic.
I just love how Steve puts together a review. No parroting the companies claims. He flies them and you see the results first hand. That way you can make an informed purchasing decision. 👍
i bought one, it really is great having 3km range with decent video transmission. (and none of that DJI "you cant fly here you cant be trusted to not fly toward Edinburgh airport" nonsense )
You can actually track the target closer for “follow me” and “orbit” especially in manual. Also, you forgot to mention that it has a new gimbal wheel sensitivity function as well as a RTH height setting. As for “Sport Mode” the gimbal locks and it turns into what you would call FPV Mode similar to what the DJI Mini 2 has. It also has a Cinematic Mode or “C. Mode” that makes the video look very smooth and well, cinematic! 😄
You are single handedly making all the drones better. They have come a long way in the last 24 months. Exrtra white boy heap big drone wampum. What drone would you use to do reality photos? Homes for sale drone.
Dang good pic quality from this unit. I always though the Bugs lineup was the better entry level unit. If this were available when I 1st started, I'd kept it just for fun. This is what the people starting out should jump on!!!
MJX Bugs and SJRC F11 are stiil the best starters, C-Fly is out of the price range, and has a slightly different feature set. It's somewhere in between Bugs and FIMI. If you've got enough money, I'd suggest buying a FIMI X8 SE 2020 instead, it's got a better camera, bigger range, and wide availability of accessories like camera lens filters. But this one is still very impressive, especially for the price tag.
Wow for a cheap drone the footage looks darn good. Especially over the water image looks almost dji-ish. Glad that I sold my old drone before the gimbal era came to the entry level 😁 Thanks for the video Cap.
That isn't bad -- Reminds me of the DJI Mavic Air with a Spark body. I'd get this for when I in those DJI restricted places but am just going to fly 50 feet up such as a real estate home.
Looks like a great price for the punch. Very nice, and more affordable. I can't believe how fast these priced drones are getting caught up with some of the big boys that were out. At least faster than I thought we would see during this pandemic and chip shortage. Cheers!
I am new to drones and I have 2 HS drones, a 110D and a 120D and have had nothing but problems with them crashing and breaking. This one I think would be perfect with fly it out of the box.
Hi This is a one year reaction to CFLY2 2021 or 2022 plus version they are basically the same except the 2022 plus has a cooling fan and battery’s are interchangeable. I am nick nameing them the 90 meter drone , no matter how high I set the hight is likely to return to home (Rth signal loss) distance is over a mile, good drone for a park but I won’t use it for anything over 90 meter’s, reliable yes .
She's pretty nice. I'm still opting for the Fimi X8 mini for $319.99 US for my 2nd camera quad, where this is $399.99 US on eBay. Just a little out of my price range.
This is surprisingly good. The gimbal is pretty much rock-solid, with no jelly effect. Too bad they wouldn't update the app to allow the camera options with the earlier models, like the first Faith and the EX4.
$100.00 more will get you a DJI Mini 2 with 10000 Klm range with true 4k video, 35mph top speed, apps that actually work, and 31 minutes of flight time. It is under 250 grahms and will fly in force 5 winds!
Yes, that is true, to Sony camera sensor is very, very good. If I compare it to DJI mini3 Pro drone, then I get better, sharper video footage. And this for 3x less money as DJI. Good beginner video drone.
The image should remain smooth even with wind. Carry the drone around in your hand and film and it should be smooth as well as long as you don't make jarring movements.
Fancy drone= fancy result + superb feature.. i dont arguing pros n cons.. fancy means suit people needs. I wonder people do to record his ,history of a life time, in these Fancy Drone
Update from our problem that we couldn't open the app. The problem we had is that the telephone setting language was for Slovakian. We changed it to English and it worked. We tested it on other telephones and that was the problem… That other languages were not allowing the app to open but then we changed it to English and it worked. So that's the fix for us. I hope it helps others if they have that problem. It took us one month to find this out.
I do not help people choose drones for the simple reason I have no idea what you are using a drone for. If you know what you want to use a drone for then picking a drone should be very easy.
So i got myself one and i realized mine has a different belly design from what I see in online videos and pictures including yours. it has an inbuilt cooling fan. Does yours also have an inbuilt fan?
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 that's cool but one thing also is that even tho it is advertised as going over 3000m or even 5000m, I'm only able to get around 1500m and then i lose connection and she starts returning to home.
@@gilbertasamani-ayeh5009 It all depends on where you fly. When companies give flight time and range numbers it is the same as fuel mileage numbers for your family car. You’ll never achieve them unless you do the exact same flight as the company.
Great reviews Captain! Sooo...is this the Faith 2 or Faith 2 Pro - Thought you had reviewed the Faith 2 Pro before this review? Also does anyone have an idea of which Cfly drone came out first Arno, Faith2s or Faith 2Pro?
Did you download the video by removing the SD card, or did you use the USB port on the top side of it. No where can I find any information about the micro SD port on the top side of the shell.
Hi , do the arms on the bottom click into place as my c fly seems to fly very poorly ,lots of gamble wobble and poor flight characteristics , I don’t want to force the legs back further but they seem quite loose help???many thanks
The arms only open so far (no clicking). Just look down at your drone (unfolded) and make sure it looks like the drone in this video and pretty much every other drone with foldable arms.
Steve, my wife is going to hate you. See, I've just purchased my 1st ever drone for use with my channel, a SJRC 4k F11 PRO. Much as I love my drone, I think the CFLY FAITH 2 has much better features. Can you make a video on how I can purchase this drone without my wife knowing. 😅 Great review.
Steve..... Great review, thanks. Saw your original review of the C-FLY and have been on the fence ever since, as other reviews of the original model have been mixed. What cell phone are you using (Android or iphone)?
Thanks for the reply Steve... Initial reviews using the iphone indicated syncing and connection problems vs using an Android Phone. Hopefully those issues are fixed.
I've been looking for a more portable alternative to my DJI Phantom 3 for a while. Hiking up a mountain with a Phantom isn't fun. Without spending a fortune on a second drone, I think this might just be it.
Ugh. Discount code only works in US & Canada, so Banggood tells me. In which case, and as it's already too late for my summer holiday, I'll wait for the next price drop.
It only fits in one way, just like any electronic device that takes a micro SD card on the planet. If it does not go in, don't force it, as that would be the wrong way.
Hi, would you say it's capable of tracking motorbike like in a very slow speed? And can it land anywhere beside it landing pad(Home) ? Thank you so much for the review!
Seems like a really good one for the $. I like seeing Canada from the sky in your videos, maybe I'll get a passport someday and actually visit but I'd have to bring my bike(s)!

Thank you
I brought this drone after watching your first review, it's my first drone and I can't be happier it's awesome
Great! Thanks for sharing.
Looks like Cfly finally gets its act together to get a quad right; they took their sweet time and quite a few attempts, but this looks pretty nice.
i bought one, it really is great having 3km range with decent video transmission. (and none of that DJI "you cant fly here you cant be trusted to not fly toward Edinburgh airport" nonsense )
Who sells this Cfly? Amazon?

Looks and performs pretty well Steve. Not bad for the price either considering what you get in the box. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for the revue on this drone, very informative.
Cfly faith 2?
A nice low cost drone...
*35 MINS FLYING TIME???*
*ARE YOU KIDDING?????????*
Its superb Steve!
27 min tested
Video quality is amazing Steve 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
The video quality is lovely
Thanks for the review just ordered one and saved around $800 Australian that was gonna spend on Dji mavic air 2
Thanks for the heads up

Not a bad looking drone! Thanks for another awesome video captain!!
Now I’m Impressed with this drone and probably pay for the original price u said about the orange one u reviewed last time. I actually want one now :)
Another acceptable alternative to DJI Drones.. Well I hope Hubsan guys will upgrade their camera..
Hubsan also has the battery issue, where they tend to just fall out of the sky, randomly.
That camera is impressive. The drone is pretty good. Thanks for sharing
Looks like a nice drone, with good camera spec. Now back to the video

Thxs captain ... Good review n nice footage of the. Drone .... 👍
What should I do with the "Import special function" touch on the phone screen?
This is surprisingly good. The gimbal is pretty much rock-solid, with no jelly effect. Too bad they wouldn't update the app to allow the camera options with the earlier models, like the first Faith and the EX4.
Hi can you do a review between the cfly faith 2s and the fimi x8 se 22 v2?
another great review captain.
$100.00 more will get you a DJI Mini 2 with 10000 Klm range with true 4k video, 35mph top speed, apps that actually work, and 31 minutes of flight time. It is under 250 grahms and will fly in force 5 winds!
nice just what i waited for!!
Hope you all have a great day ahead
Cfly is a very good drone, I am very satisfied
Yes, that is true, to Sony camera sensor is very, very good. If I compare it to DJI mini3 Pro drone, then I get better, sharper video footage. And this for 3x less money as DJI. Good beginner video drone.
Saludo desde Colombia. Buena producción, excelente dron. 👍
Hi Captain drone, what high can you fly this drone, and if you lose connection to this drone . Will it fly away or return to home
Height would be shown in the specs (usually the same as your country allows). If connection is lost it returns to the location it took off from.
Amazing drone ! I have one and no regrets !
Sweet, was looking into buying one of these
Nice review CD!
Has excellent video quality for 300dls really getting a pretty high quality for the buck probably going to get next.👍
for that price the camera is pretty good! The video Modes could be improved but overall its good
Hi so is this one a better choice thanks
Finally 1st like and comment and waited for this video for so long
Seemed like weird artifacts around the outline of Steve in the footage sometimes. Pretty nice stabilization tho
Is there an FPV mode?
do foldable props sacrifice lift? Your videos are so darn helpful!! Love this channel!!! I'm obsessed!!
They should provide the same lift as non-foldable.
I brought this drone after watching your review, but when there is a wind the video isn't stable, i don't know what's the problem.
The image should remain smooth even with wind. Carry the drone around in your hand and film and it should be smooth as well as long as you don't make jarring movements.
My cly f crashed and there is an annoying process to have repairs. I have the orange one..it flew away from me. Maybe I should of waited
VIDEO VERY BEAUTIFUL MY FRIEND SUPER LIKE!!!

I'm having trouble with my gimbal on my cfly faith 2 not working All the time, can someone help me? It does fly vary well
would you be reviewing the C-Fly Arno plus anytime soon?😁
CFLY is still pushing the Faith Mini and not the Arno. I don’t see it on my schedule for this week.
I'm late this morning, nice drone 👍👍👍👍👍
How is video "jello" with this drone?
Hey Steve have you ever tested the HOSHI Beast sg906 max 2, OR THE kf102
If it does not show up on a search on my channel, then I have not reviewed such.
another great review man
Can you get additional batteries
hi, i'm shooting in 4k, it looks very blurry. can you help me shoot properly.
If shooting in 4K it should look clear. Are you looking at the video recorded on your phone or on the MICRO SD CARD?
Update from our problem that we couldn't open the app. The problem we had is that the telephone setting language was for Slovakian. We changed it to English and it worked.

1. Dji mini 2
2. Cfly faith 2

So i got myself one and i realized mine has a different belly design from what I see in online videos and pictures including yours. it has an inbuilt cooling fan. Does yours also have an inbuilt fan?

This is as per the title FAITH 2 (I believe the PRO is an earlier model with less features).
Great video ! Could you please help me regarding " way points ". I am in Security on a 28 acre estate. Regards
Y know your work boss .... but how can I get mine easily I'm in South Africa
What's coming up next by DJI at this price point? Is it the Mini SE?
Good pm. Where is the best dji mini or cfly faith2 thank you and godbless!!
DJI Mini has international support so that would be the one for a newbie.
Thank you captain drone godbless!!
Nice video like always 👍🏼

My drone does not rise because it says that the barometer is not healthy. Will it be a defect or do I have to do something?
