These 15fps drones are just embarrassing. I really wonder why so many toygrade level drone manufacturers have gone down this route instead of just focusing on making a quality 720p experience.

I'd say SJRC already made the best 720p drone you could ever get for the price, which is the SJRC S20W, S30W, and the S70W. Out of all of the toy grade level manufacturers, I'd say SJRC is the most impressive for what they do. The 15 fps honestly was the most "iffy" thing to me when I say this, but then again, you have the F11 (which I actually know nothing about to be honest). That'll be good if SJRC makes an improved camera for the F7, because I was actually quite surprised that SJRC would actually do something like this to their drone.
Well done Captain! a very welcome video in what seems to be a "drought" with other reviewers!; its quite amazing to think that in 2021 there is a Drone with the specs of the F7 Pro which sells for approx $380 AUD !!!; yes, a shame they didn't up the frame rate to at least 25 as it would have then made it an entry level game changer !!!; I certainly envy new pilots of today with the choices they have compared to only 6 years ago !!!
That’s a good drone sir, soon maybe I’ll try to buy that drone to review, now I already received my drone h117s zino so I’ll unboxing it and do the flight test here in japan
the Yuneec Q500 was the first drone I saw that you can remove the camera and gimbal. and it even came with a separate handle to mount the camera and gimbal too, so you can film smooth videos without the drone
Given the video frame rate, maybe it would produce better results if it had a much slower slowest speed setting. Otherwise it looks like a great way to get into camera drones.
This drone seems to fly quite well.Nice and stable.Obviously the camera thats on the drone at 15fps is no good for video,but it takes great photo,s,in standard form.I guess when they say camera drone,its good for foto,s,when they say video drone its good for video,this 1 looks like a camera drone.A clever move though by sjrc,they knew they would be bringing out a better camera for this,that you would buy,if you needed better video.Thanks for the video captain,great content.🤠
You got those captain drone stickers everywhere you are taking over the planet 🤯 I can just imagine the wife sitting there watching tv with a captain drone sticker on her forehead 😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
Have they upgraded the camera? On the included link, rc goings description says its a 30fps camera, but banggood still lists it as 15... its an interesting quad, but im not spending that kind of money on 15fps...
The MJX bugs B20 has a similar form factor, no gimbal however it does have EIS and 60fps or 30fps depending on 4k or 1080 - it is also a little bit cheaper ( you reviewed the B20 a while back and remarked on its 'tripod' mode being particularly impressive )
I have Bugs 20 and waiting for Bugs 16 Pro also. Bugs 20 is a great bird to start from, but it's better to get Bugs 16 Pro or SJRC F11 4K Pro. They both have real 4K resolution, though people claim they don't because of blurry optics and EIS which degrades the image further in a way similar to how simple “spike” noise reduction works. You can actually get a sort of decent picture from these if you know how to set up focus on your lens, but that may reveal a bit of jello because of sharper image coming into EIS. I should once try that and see if I can fix the sharpness myself on my drones. The color range and quality you get is about tolerable under sunlight, a bit less at sunset or sunrise, and just awful once sun goes down. Also, there's a problem with variable frame rate when you get freezes both on FPV and SD card if it jumps too high for onboard encoder to handle in time. Yes, Bugs 20 records with variable framerate at the average of 29.97 FPS, it's not straight 30/25/24 FPS as it should be for a cinematic drone. I hope they never do that again in further birds. One more thing I don't like is the gimbal wheel, its response time is sometimes unpredictable. Otherwise, it's fine for the price. The sport mode is fun (but usable only on sight, FPV delay is ridiculous), the tripod mode is really smooth even on camera, given no gimbal and mediocre EIS, RTH works well (I never had an error more than 1.5 m), orbit mode is good, follow mode is acceptable, altitude and position hold are pretty good, controller is nice, and the GPS gets satellites fast, a lot of them. I usually get full 19 by the time I'm mid compass calibration. The only thing I wish would be there, except for a better camera, is better FPV, like on FIMI, that allows to use the full controller range and has less delay, but that's currently impossible at the price point.
The drone is good except for that 'skippy-looking' 15fps. Why oh why did they do that...people would've been snapping this one up because it aces every test EXCEPT the fps. Info jam packed excellent review as always.
Hello Captain Drone im from Philippines🇵🇭 im a big fan of you I wish i have fpv drone but soon i will have it have a good day and stay safe i always watch your drone videos
I'm guessing they had to settle for a slower processor as the drone doesn't have the lens correction like the F11 4K. Is the remote compatible with the F11 4K? The added range for both remote and video would be amazing, not to mention the better screen.
Once again, an excellent detailed review by Captain Drone ... thank you. I found the design of the F7 quite interesting and apparently it does fly quite well. The F7's transmitter is much improved over the one used on the F11 pro 4k (with it's stupid backlit screen that is not visible in the sun and has no telemetry). Unfortunately, the 15 FPS camera is a joke and is incomprehensible to me why they would do that to an otherwise good budget quad. Frankly, I would not trade my F11 Pro 4k for it! However, If that Transmitter would work with my F11 and if they would sell it separately for a reasonable price, I would really consider buying it (just the transmitter that is). Again, thanks for another informative review.
at 3:20 it is about that it is possible to disconnect the camera and then mount another camera for example and then you say that you have not seen that before.. But was this also not possible with the GOPRO KARMA?
I watch almost all the drone reviews, but this one just doesn't make sense. 15 FPS, in a world where the "standard" has now reach 60 FPS, is embarrassing. I really don't see the point of even creating such a drone.
For some people the 15 FPS does not matter because the drone has so many other really good features. People buy drones for different reasons (some for the color of the drone).
SJRC is becoming better and better... Thats a budget drone which has a good camera quality. 4K and 15 fps is nice but not for them who chase something like other RC vehicles or want to shoot cinematic video... It do have many interesting features like orbit, waypoints and follow me which makes it a lot better... Max range is 3 KM which is impressive! It is beautiful... Overall its worth the price for beginners!
with the distance this drone is getting it seems crazy , usually phones won't connect to wifi that far away even is perfect conditions. A mile is not possible unless the phone is connecting to the controller and communicating that way.
Steve as always, love the videos very informative, if that's 4K video I'm a monkey's uncle. Looks like 1080p to me. 15 frames a second I believe. Thanks again for the video. The c fly Faith 2 really looks good to me for a budget drone. Apparently they think so too the price has gone up $70 since I bought mine. Unless something drastic happens the next drone I buy will be a DJI air2s. I bought a tiny hawk, fpv is really hard. I would like to get your feedback on what you think the best budget drone might be.
Love your video's, the reviews are always fair and honest! I just bought the DJI Phantom 3 Pro last night. Getting its all prepped and ready for my first flight with it. I ONLY paid 400.00 for it and it's practically brand new. The guy used it for music video shoots and hated carrying such a big container to shoots. lol
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 Hi captain drone love the informative videos you bring out really helps me make informed decisions on what to buy ,I've a couple of questions if you don't mind I have an eachine ex4 which up until recently worked really well until one day I turned it on and all I got was a solid red light ,the camera worked because I could see the fpv through the phone app but there was no gps signal coming from the drone ,so I replaced the GPS unit but it still didn't work ! Any ideas why its not working the batteries are a little swollen but that hasn't affected it before . Another question is can use my own action camera on the F7 pro ?
@@johnharker1888 Do you mean no GPS even after you did the compass calibration? I have never heard of a GPS going on these budget units, usually it is always the VTX, so not sure what the issue is. The F7 Pro may not fly well lifting an action camera.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 thank you for the swift reply, the eachine ex4 just isn't responding its totally dead solid red light at the back but the camera works ,no little drone icon on the GPS map and it says N/A for GPS signal please forgive the vauge description but not really an expert, but I really appreciate the help
The drone looks pretty good. I just wish they would put a lower res, higher frame rate camera (like 1080p, 30fps). Because, at this price, you could get a refurb DJI Mini for just $30 more.
Wow, looks like a Mavic and Phantom 1 had a baby! Nice review CD! About $100USD cheaper than a C-Fly Faith 2. If I were shopping, I would spend the extra money and get the C-Fly. Little more professional than this thing (no calibration steps necessary, longer range, longer flight time, and true 4K/30 video.)
This is my 3rd drone and I'm totally satisfied. Camera little iffy but flight time is str8 n the range I haven't maxxed out yet. However at 3200' out n 340' up it did great. Great review btw.
Idk why SJRC released F7 with 15fps, just remember F11 released in 3 different 4k 15fps,24fps, and latest 30fps with 3 axis gimbal and eis.. maybe can answere this.. and there is problem with F7 about reconnecting. If u switch off your remote, aircraft forced into RTH and u cannot reconnect again, so is the fpv, u wont see anything to confirm aircraft auto RTH .
I like the looks of this drone. As most of them seem to follow the same design. I am curious if there are any alternative camera's that you could upgrade to. Or I wonder if you could somehow convert another camera to be installed onto the drone. This and the V-copter drone are the some of the most distinct looking drones I know of.
This drone looks like identical to another drone called the BWine F7 probably just a rebrand that cost more ($350) in Amazon. Intresting, clearly better value buying it from your link
Nice video Sir. But, where did you collect the background music for this video? If possible, I will be very happy if you give the links of the background music.
Great review was very informative, as most I love the Drone think it has a lot of very nice features for a budget drone and yes I think the only real draw back it the 15 fps. that being the case, dose anyone know if there is an upgrade cam available for it yet??
Pictures are much better than video. It’s hard consider this, especially if you’ve seen other drones ? Unless this is 40-50 pounds am not convinced. Thanks for your video review
Hi Steve. Sorry my question is not related to the video. Just bought myself the radio master tx16 max. Do you know if they changed the holes of setting the tention also to the front like the Eachine tx16s. Kind regards Johan
Great review once again 😄. Though I have a question (unrelated to the review). I have the jjrc h78g drone that I bought 2 years ago. It came with one battery and that battery is damaged. Anyways, I got into many websites (gearbest,banggood etc) to see if there is any h78g batteries on sale and I didn't find any. But then I saw the jjrc x16, which is identical to the h78g drone that I own and, fortunately, there are x16 drone batteries sold separately on banggood. So here is my question. Will the battery from the x16 drone be compatible with my h78g drone? I could really use your help on this one please.
Quadcopter itself seems good (fast too); camera is sub par though with its pathetic 4K @ 15fps. Video looks choppy, especially pointed down (unwatchable imo). For the price there are better overal performing quads.
I have a iphone 12 prop max and it will not fit in the standard clamps on control boxes. Please to tell me if there is anything I can do to right situation
Only in a magical kingdom that would work. You see, in the real world, the weather of where you are standing is not the same as the weather your local weather station has reported to UAV forecast. UAV forecast is merely an app where you set the parameters of what you'd like for when you fly and it then lets you know if any of your requests are exceeded. Is it accurate? It's better than nothing but it can only be accurate in general and not accurate as to where you are standing (i.e., are you downtown, are you in a park, are you in a farmer's field, etc).
Looks like bugs 12 and mavic having a baby lol.. its good drone and the best feature is the removable camera module the downside is the 4k 15fps. I love my spark and its 1080p camera, why they didn't change the camera into 1080p 60fps or 2k 30 fps, maybe they will sell camera module with different fps separately that would be interesting..
I think you're using your cell phone ... About the map and/or sat look(aerial) ... if a person uses a non-subscribed phone(no service),will the finger tapping still indicate a map or aerial?
Hey Captain I'm becoming an avid drone enthusiasts I have 3 2 are DJI im looking to step up to a bigger price tag im wanting a zoom in camera flies for 30 minutes but under $3000 dollars what would you recommend?
WOW ... 15 frames ... even a few frames a second would be great for me ... BUT, I'm not sure the photos do the drone justice ... I would love to have access to one of those pictures so I could evaluate the quality ... is this possible?
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 Thank you! Motivation: I am trying to gather some data that depicts drone visibility (V) vs distance to drone (D). On the simpler end of things, I suspect that V=alpha*D+beta. The trick is to estimate the parameters alpha and beta for a given drone. Great videos BTW.
The S J F PRO app indicates VGA, 720P and 1080P .. no 2K ... no 4K anywhere ... and the photos appear to be about 1080, with edge enhancements and higher contrast settings to "make", poor pictures look better, until one zooms in ...

Always like watching your reviews. Great work and the drone isn't to bad.
Since that camera is removable it would be a nice add on if they sell an arm that holds a go pro or similar
removable camera is on this to and much better drone real 4k. Yuneec Typhoon Q500 4K
Por que mi dron no regreso al mando
😪
It would have been nice to see a higher frame rate in lower resolution. 😁
Camera is embarrassing, looks more like a bad 720p. Maybe they plan to make a good one, since it's replaceable. Range was a surprise.
Always a good assessment for drones and other stuff.
Something to note, those anemometers are not usually calibrated.
It’s 30 FPS recording on the SD card. 15 FPS for live transmission.
Ummm.... Did you even watch the video?
Given the video frame rate, maybe it would produce better results if it had a much slower slowest speed setting.
Otherwise it looks like a great way to get into camera drones.

You can slap on any camera that the drone could lift

But then I saw the jjrc x16, which is identical to the h78g drone that I own and, fortunately, there are x16 drone batteries sold separately on banggood. So here is my question. Will the battery from the x16 drone be compatible with my h78g drone?
I could really use your help on this one please.
Unfortunately I have no idea if they would work. Check to see if the voltage & mAh are the same.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 voltage and mAh are not the same but the size of the the 2 batteries is identical, so I figured it would work.
Nice video! I was wondering if there are any batteries that you know of that can be bought to last longer than 20 minutes?
None are available for such a drone
Quadcopter itself seems good (fast too); camera is sub par though with its pathetic 4K @ 15fps. Video looks choppy, especially pointed down (unwatchable imo). For the price there are better overal performing quads.
Didn't fimi made a drone 4k whit a camera you can take off ?
Was it a budget drone? I was referring to Budget drones with removable 4K cameras.
Could u please review ylr/c s137
I have a iphone 12 prop max and it will not fit in the standard clamps on control boxes. Please to tell me if there is anything I can do to right situation
great review as usual thanks steve
Thanks for watching!
Great video with detailed information. But I think I can get the wind details on UAV forecast or Tomorrow Weather, cant I?
Only in a magical kingdom that would work. You see, in the real world, the weather of where you are standing is not the same as the weather your local weather station has reported to UAV forecast. UAV forecast is merely an app where you set the parameters of what you'd like for when you fly and it then lets you know if any of your requests are exceeded. Is it accurate? It's better than nothing but it can only be accurate in general and not accurate as to where you are standing (i.e., are you downtown, are you in a park, are you in a farmer's field, etc).
Looks like bugs 12 and mavic having a baby lol.. its good drone and the best feature is the removable camera module the downside is the 4k 15fps. I love my spark and its 1080p camera, why they didn't change the camera into 1080p 60fps or 2k 30 fps, maybe they will sell camera module with different fps separately that would be interesting..
does this drone contain an sd card slot? so that it stores the video, rather than laggy screen record
Well Done Captain D!! Video appeared very choppy to me! Still a nice Drone!!
Is there any camera adjustment at all? Exposure? Anything? Can you shoot at a lower resolution and higher frame rate?
Everything available on this drone was shown in this video.
is it possible to change the camara of the drone and put in a better camara?
Can you please do more low cost drones you recommend maybe under 150 dollars?
first class review captain.
Thank you!
Can you reduce recording resolution for increased frame rate? (Great video, as always!)
Unfortunately no
i think it`s time for a modular drone DJI, that removable camera makes me think of that.
Love watching your review and i am pro now
Thank you!
great review capt
Captain, what is the status of the Hubsan Mini Pro?
Not released yet
We may to install a GoPro camera in this drone?
That is the most awkward drone to do a vertical compass calibration spin ever saw! The shape, plus the landing gear makes it nearly impossible!
Can you connect phone to controller with cable instead of Wifi?
Nope
I think you're using your cell phone ... About the map and/or sat look(aerial) ... if a person uses a non-subscribed phone(no service),will the finger tapping still indicate a map or aerial?
If you use any device out in the field, away from WIFI or DATA then your device has no ability to get the map info.
Hey Captain I'm becoming an avid drone enthusiasts I have 3 2 are DJI im looking to step up to a bigger price tag im wanting a zoom in camera flies for 30 minutes but under $3000 dollars what would you recommend?
DJI MINI 2 fits that, or the AIR2S.
How many frames does it fly on 1080p?
I have noticed with using my iPhone outside on a sunny day that I have trouble seeing the phone screen . How do you get around this ?
I only buy phones with the brightest of screens. Samsung is the leader with their high end models, and Apples iPhone Pro line is good as well.
Great video
Lol. I keep waiting for you to say “once, twice, 3 times a lady” lmao
WOW ... 15 frames ... even a few frames a second would be great for me ... BUT, I'm not sure the photos do the drone justice ... I would love to have access to one of those pictures so I could evaluate the quality ... is this possible?
Sure, screenshot it 😆
WHAT SD CARD ARE U USING ON THIS ONE? THANKS
Sandisk 32 gig, class 10
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 thanks
Does it has an auto landing option
Captain drone what should I do about my f7 gimbal please
Since I do not have your drone in my hands I can’t help
Okay but Can I show you,.maybe video call. This my first sjrc drone
Does this have any other resolution or fps options?...or only 4K 15 fps?
Only what was shown in the video
Hey Steve!! How much are these?!?!
Do you ever use a laser rangefinder to keep track of the distance to your drones? If so, any recommendations? Thank you!
Have not tried that as the drone gives me the range via GPS.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 Thank you! Motivation: I am trying to gather some data that depicts drone visibility (V) vs distance to drone (D). On the simpler end of things, I suspect that V=alpha*D+beta. The trick is to estimate the parameters alpha and beta for a given drone. Great videos BTW.
Finally🥰🥰🥰🥰
The S J F PRO app indicates VGA, 720P and 1080P .. no 2K ... no 4K anywhere ... and the photos appear to be about 1080, with edge enhancements and higher contrast settings to "make", poor pictures look better, until one zooms in ...
Hello, do you think sjrc F11s pro is better or sjrc F7s pro??
Both are older drones with older technology. The F11s has a better camera.
Well, I say in general terms, which one is better in general terms??
Can it be flown/controlled without the phone connected?
It all depends on the app. Most budget drones under $250 US can work without a phone, but obviously you have no features or camera view then.
