Thanks for your videos they really helped me decide on getting this model drone, Im a first time flier rushed out and bought a Parrot Bebop2 at first FAIL, after watching your videos I immediately returned Parrot purchased Xstar Premium and I LOVE IT!! So easy to fly and all the key sticking points your mention are on point!
Fantastic and very informative video. Great job. You're a natural on camera too. After watching your video, I am going to buy the same drone tomorrow. Thanks a bunch. Keep up the excellent work. You are awesome brother
Thanks for the review, very informative. I have this Drone and I love it. I stayed in beginner mode for about two hours of flight. took it off and I have to say it was awesome. I Flew today in pretty stiff wind, was amazingly stable. 5 stars For autel x star Premium.
I love how you stress flying with care and responsibility. It would be great if this was practiced religiously. Especially with these powerful drones and any drone as a matter of fact. Thank for sharing, I will definitely consider this product when I learn to fly better. Thanks!!!
To be honest, I wish someone had told me to be more careful! lol. The first 2 crashes were brutal, and I was just being stupid, lol. Thanks for watching fam. Let me know if you decide to get one.
Yeah, It will be awhile. I just purchased the Hubsan H502E and turned around and ordered the H502S because I enjoyed the E and I wanted FPV so I ordered the S. Just starting out in this new hobby and I enjoyed it. Thanks for reply and keep up the good work.
Excellent review and tips. In addition to extra batteries, an overlooked safety feature is using prop guards - I see too few on drones. I know there is a 'rule' about not flying farther than you can see the drone, but come on, who's going to stay in the playground and not explore the limits? I had a Hubsan H501s that did not record, so it's on way back to Banggood, China, and you will find dozens of videos here about modding the range. Stock it gets maybe 500m, and with mods up to 2400m or 1.5 miles. Now who isn't going to do that? What's cool is the 5.8GHz FPV that you can receive with cheap goggles like Eachine for $80, and fly like you're actually the onboard pilot. But I have yet to see such mods for the XStar. Parabolic antenna boosters, maybe a cloverleaf for the drone, could get it to 2 or 3 miles. Suddenly your playground is huge. This is my next drone. Cool video, thanks.
I love my Autel X-Star , one huge mistake I made was that I did buy extra batteries. The problem I have is that I am in South Africa and importing the battery make so expensive. Wish I had someone coming to South Africa so that I could save on shipping and import duties. Thanks for a awesome video. Love this Drone
Interesting video. Lots of interesting information. Thanks for that! Your dog is cute. When you fly your dog has a lot of fun too by the looks of things.
Great video! A caution to DJI fliers.. This drone will not stop as quickly as the P4 or the Inspire One Pro! I'm not sure of the technical reason but those drones seem to have natural, "brakes," and this one does not. Give it some room to slow down and stop after releasing the forward stick.
I was just checking in. Bought the X-Star premium last week. First drone ever. Been looking at other models and nothing came close to this price wise and features. Still learning the ropes. Recorded some videos and snapped some pictures. I have not yet reviewed any of it. I'm still on beginner mode, and now I see why I didn't get the range I expected. Great video!
i bought one too, the only thing i'm hoping since i do not live in america, it will not be taking away at the costumer import service, it should arrive end april
Thoughtful, accurate review! DJI's obstacle avoidance doesn't always work... You won't know when it's not going to work until you hit something. I personally prefer flying w/o it -- it keeps you sharper. Autel's blog makes key point. Over confidence is the cause of most crashes. You do more than you are capable of doing. When you try something new for the 1st time, you don't quite make it...just ask me! Autel's drone is very rugged, I've crashed mine 3 times, and each time it (somehow) survived.
Love the dog dude. I have owned 3 Phantoms and sold them all for this beast. It is fantastic. i hit a volcanic cliff face at 3/4 throttle. Totally my fault. it still flies perfectly but did need a new shell, the old one could have stayed on but hell....it's just money right.
Daaaaang, a volcanic cliff?! Man you're serious. Lmao. I'm increasingly surprised at how durable this thing is. By the way, would be awesome to see the footage of the volcano crash. I hope you were rolling
well its like this mate.... when i had the bird at mack speed heading back to me, I turned around to see exactly where I was in relation to the cliff face, by the time I saw the cliff face it was the usual reaction one has when they know ur about to have an accident. I tightened up waiting for the impact and in that moment, my finger pressed the stop record button. I totally stuffed it up. I didn't realize that while flying around I kept walking closer and closer to the wall and by the time I saw it...BANG it was all over. If it was my phantom doing that, I would have given it a seaside burial. You stay safe my friend.
Great vid, Genie. Like someone else mentioned, Kudos to the dog - ha. I came to the XSP from the Phantom 2 Vision, and there's no comparison. But, to be fair, the P2V is waaaay old technology. I'm still getting used to flying to the point where I can still hear it, but can't see it. 2500 feet is the farthest so far, but the video is rock solid so I can see where I'm going, just not with my naked eye. Recently did my first over-water flight. Nail biting at first, but got used to it. I just LOVE this bird!
Very good tips man! We own it and I wish I could see your post before a couple of accidents! ha ! We´ge good and happpy with it though! Congrats from Mexico !
Great Video Bud. Very easy to understand you not a lot a Big Terms like some guy's .. I'm getting a Autel x- star Premium real soon so you had some great info for me I'll keep looking for your UA-cam Videos.. Thanks...
Good video dude! Something I notice is that the drone looks allot like an older phantom body, I'd say a P2plus or P3. The gimbal looks exactly like the one I had on my P2 Plus. Same wires you pointed out. The batteries look like the ones I had on my P3P.I wonder if Autel bought out some of DJI Molds for making this drone.I like the machine and it's on my to buy list!Thanks again,JT
Nice features. I've been flying and building drones for three years. My biggest problem on my builds is flight time. I also like the drones to be 250mm sized. Basically, the DJI Mavic is as close to the perfect drone for me. I wish there was competition there..
Autel Robotics will be releasing a Mavic Pro alternative called the Evo and Xiaomi is also releasing a Mavic Pro version as well. i'm so glad there will be a Mavic Pro alt. because $1200 is alot for smaller videographers/photographers with a limited budget.
Thanks for the comment fam. Let me know what you think once you get yours! And yeah, my dog is a handful, and he gets nice and tired chasing after the drone, haha
..nice! Good to see alternatives to DJI. They make good drones but am not keen on their marketing. Picked up a Xiaomi Mi 4k for $429. They have some firmware issues but mines been great. Getting a Spark as not too much out there that does as well in such a small form factor. Wish it had 4k and a 3 axis gimbal. It would be worth paying extra $$...Thanks
New to your channel. Great, sound advice....been watching this drone for a while as a cheaper alternative to DJI Phantom. Autel is working on obstacle avoidance...but it's under wraps for now. Great review!
Peace brother. Out here in South Florida. I just bought my X-Star Premium. Gonna fly for the first time in a (drone friendly) park to get some practice time. Shooting a music video in the carribean next month. looking forward to the footage. I must say your review of this drone gave me the confidence to do it myself. Thanks for this well done review. I subscribed just from watching this.
After filming or flying can you send it to someone email right from your iPad , or phone whichever one you're using or do you have to take the SD card and I'll put it in the holder put it in the computer and do all that long process...thanks Dennis
Dennis Reif Doable, yes. But the file would probably be too large to send email without Google Drive or something. From the tablet attached to the remote controller, you can download the video from the drone onto your device. Once it's downloaded, you can send however you like. Sometimes it takes a while to download, so what I've done is take the microSD out of the drone, put it in my tablet, then download to the device. But to answer your question, yes it's possible to transmit the file without removing the SD card, but it would take substantially longer.
Dennis Reif Overall I'm very satisfied...especially because of the removable camera and opportunity to swap out and upgrade later. The drone flies pretty damn fast and stable. Looks best during the day or at Magic Hour. The 4k camera it comes with isn't great at night, but I don't fly much at night anyway
Great info, thanks. Ive been thinking about finally getting a drone personally. I have flown rc airplanes in the past and did some video work with a DJI phantom 3 standard this week. Now I am seriously considering the Autel vs the DJI. Also love the look of your on camera 60p footage, mind letting me know what you shooting with.
good vidieo one thing I wanted to know is does the camera have voice like can you here anything from camera if I were filming my kids can I here them through camera
I have a few questions: 1. What's the bitrate of the highest quality 4k files? 2. Can you film with it in hand (without the propellers spinning), a.k.a just as a GoPro on a gimbal? 3. Can you turn it off in flight? (usable when you are in a boat and you can't really land it on land so you grab it from the air and you switch it off)
1. 4K frame rate is 30 fps. (Is that what you meant by bitrate?) 2. Yes. I've tested the camera in the house that way. But it has to stay attached to the drone. 3. Yes. I've tried that too (but not in a boat). Once you grab it, hold the left stick at 6 o'clock (to descend) until the propellers stop. It's hard to hold upright that way one-handed, so be careful as it loses lift and falls sideways in your hand.
And Autel is coming out with a dual camera. FLIR camera which enables heat signature. Kinda like from the movie Predator. If its not gonna be to expensive i will purchase one. Would be useful for finding lost people or animals.
Decent video, excellent video taking, new to the drone community and just purchased my very 1st drone, the one in your video. would like more info on your down scailing and camera settings and what software you use for editing???
Thanks for watching fam. Congrats on the drone purchase --you won't be disappointed. I'm using Adobe Premiere Pro to edit. I swore an oath to the Adobe Suite, and it's all I use :) Regarding the camera settings, you can see in these clips that it is on AUTO...so you can see the exposure and ISO adjust when I spin toward the sun. Normally, I lock in all my settings so the shot stays consistent. I'll do a video about my settings for next week's vlog. Thanks man!
Genie Deez I really need lessons, lol, but I'm really enjoying it. Having issues uploading to Google drive or Google photos, no matter what setting I video in, they want upload. Any suggestions? Using a galaxy S7 edge and a galaxy Tab S
Ok, I notice that my video setting was set MOV, so I set it to MP4. BUT I have at least 12 videos on the MOV file, downloaded an app called Media converter which does convert the file. But for some reason I can't find the files the movies are in within that app, it doesn't access it
I'm an absolute beginner. This is the drone I chose. I love it. You won't crash unless you get careless. Watch for obstacles (especially power lines and things you don't see at first), dont go too fast, high, etc., and you'll be fine. One thing I like is that if you just let go of the controls, it stops and hovers. (But I imagine most drones do that).
Thinking about using this from a boat on a lake. New to the drone world. Curious about getting it back. Will it return to remote? Hard to land on slow moving boat?
You might want to remove your gimbal guard BEFORE you turn on the drone. The camera needs to be free so when its turned on it can do its positioning acclimation process. You could inadvertently ruin your gimbal. Just an FYI. I own the same drone. I paid a little more than you but i got the carry case, 4 batteries, and extra prop guards. Happy Flying. Drone on! And dont forget to register your drone.
Thanks for the upload.... Your dog really wanted that drone.....
This is the best review on the X-Star I've seen. You've helped make my mind up about getting this model.
i completely agree with the color and how it stands out in the sky!
Thanks for your videos they really helped me decide on getting this model drone, Im a first time flier rushed out and bought a Parrot Bebop2 at first FAIL, after watching your videos I immediately returned Parrot purchased Xstar Premium and I LOVE IT!! So easy to fly and all the key sticking points your mention are on point!
This is one of the best reviews I have seen. You are natural, easy explaining things as it comes to your mind. Cool. Subscribed from Australia.
For straight-out-of-the-camera video, I really like the "Vivid" color profile, which exaggerates R, B and G.
Fantastic and very informative video. Great job. You're a natural on camera too. After watching your video, I am going to buy the same drone tomorrow. Thanks a bunch. Keep up the excellent work. You are awesome brother
Thanks brother. Just the encouragement I needed. Let me know once you start uploading footage from your new drone. You won't be disappointed.
Very well done. I'm looking at this one for Christmas.
Thanks for the review, very informative. I have this Drone and I love it. I stayed in beginner mode for about two hours of flight. took it off and I have to say it was awesome. I Flew today in pretty stiff wind, was amazingly stable. 5 stars For autel x star Premium.
Bill Marz exactly! 5 stars. I ran into a drone pro at Hollywood Park the other day and we raved about this thing for an hour
I love how you stress flying with care and responsibility. It would be great if this was practiced religiously. Especially with these powerful drones and any drone as a matter of fact. Thank for sharing, I will definitely consider this product when I learn to fly better. Thanks!!!

thanks for taking the time to review the Autel. I have my eye on this drone and your vlog was helpful!!
Thanks for watching man. I honestly have next to zero qualms with it. Glad you found it helpful!
Great review, man. We were about to get a DJI Phantom 4 but looking into this now.
I love my Autel X-Star , one huge mistake I made was that I did buy extra batteries. The problem I have is that I am in South Africa and importing the battery make so expensive. Wish I had someone coming to South Africa so that I could save on shipping and import duties. Thanks for a awesome video. Love this Drone
Great video. Very informative. Thanks for posting this. Can't wait to pick this guy up.
Interesting video. Lots of interesting information. Thanks for that! Your dog is cute. When you fly your dog has a lot of fun too by the looks of things.

GREAT JOB !! Good info. I love that you didn't edit out yourself looking to your right and thinking of what to say next. REAL !!

i bought one too, the only thing i'm hoping since i do not live in america, it will not be taking away at the costumer import service, it should arrive end april
Thank you my friend!
Did it arrive yet?
I just bought a phantom 3SE. Cost 599.00 which included shipping. I do like the detachable camera feature on the Autel.
Great Video! Thank you. I was thinking about buying the bundle, I'll shop around.
It is a great drone! The orange, "pumpkin," is cool.
Very informative and straight forward!
Great review man! I think I'm going to buy this one.

Cheers to filmmaking --good and bad.
Nice video man! Love my pumpkin.. I'm thinking of doing a review myself. I'm going to sub for sure
Thanks man!!! And yeah do it! Do a review, we need this orange nation to show up! Haha
Great vid, Genie. Like someone else mentioned, Kudos to the dog - ha. I came to the XSP from the Phantom 2 Vision, and there's no comparison. But, to be fair, the P2V is waaaay old technology.

I'm terrified to fly over water, lol. But I'm glad you did. I want to see the footage! Thanks for the shoutout to my pup Blue!
Big video, thank you very much, i buy it now too, beautiful drone
Nice vid bro love the jacket pimpin!

Great video! Thanks for taking the time. Can't wait to start flying my Autel. Well done.
Good video and info on the Autel X-star premium drone!
Great Video, Well done. And very cool Dog
Very good tips man! We own it and I wish I could see your post before a couple of accidents! ha ! We´ge good and happpy with it though! Congrats from Mexico !
Great review man. Super informative and thorough.
Fox.McLeod Thanks fam! Glad you enjoyed it!
thx for the video. I'm trying to make a decision on one.
Great vid. Thanks!!
Thanks Parker!
Great Video Bud. Very easy to understand you not a lot a Big Terms like some guy's .. I'm getting a Autel x- star Premium real soon so you had some great info for me I'll keep looking for your UA-cam Videos.. Thanks...
Bagger Jim thanks man! Let me know how you like your new drone
you so sold me on this drone.. thanks
Very informative taught me things and covered items that I had been wondering about.
Thanks
Nice work on this video, subscribed today. My pumpkin comes tomorrow.. can't wait to fly it!
I wanna see your footage once it comes in!
Amazing video full of wonderful.
😂😂😂 the dog got some hops..
Good video "dude"! You are a smart guy and did a good job. I'm getting one.
Good video dude! Something I notice is that the drone looks allot like an older phantom body, I'd say a P2plus or P3. The gimbal looks exactly like the one I had on my P2 Plus.

MrPolymers I'm waiting for that comparable drone too man
Poor Bebop 2... if only it had a better camera. Or an SD card slot for that matter.
Yes indeed. Hey for $499, I'd snatch up one instead of my Hubsan H501S which has been nothing but problems if you watch my channel..
Thanks, that's good to know.
Autel Robotics will be releasing a Mavic Pro alternative called the Evo and Xiaomi is also releasing a Mavic Pro version as well. i'm so glad there will be a Mavic Pro alt. because $1200 is alot for smaller videographers/photographers with a limited budget.
That Lens is putting in work my dude
great video. I have one ordered with extra batteries
cool vid man!! im buying one, so thank you... and cool dog!! great way to get the dog some exercise
Thanks for the comment fam. Let me know what you think once you get yours! And yeah, my dog is a handful, and he gets nice and tired chasing after the drone, haha
Nice review Thanks for putting iy up.
Do real estate inspections; primarily for commercial purposes. Considering drones for roof view; your video was informative thank you.
My pleasure
Great review!
Good advices, I been flying for over two years and like you, practice practice, and don't fly over people
Well is 2024 and im thinking of getting the Autel xtar drone
..nice! Good to see alternatives to DJI. They make good drones but am not keen on their marketing. Picked up a Xiaomi Mi 4k for $429. They have some firmware issues but mines been great. Getting a Spark as not too much out there that does as well in such a small form factor. Wish it had 4k and a 3 axis gimbal. It would be worth paying extra $$...Thanks
Great Review ....broski!!!
Who needs obstacle avoidance when the drone is built like a tank? Ha! ha! It doesn't seem like the drone it's self suffered any damage.
Bahaha. I guess you're right. They were pretty hard crashes, and the pumpkin still flies like it did day 1.
New to your channel. Great, sound advice....been watching this drone for a while as a cheaper alternative to DJI Phantom. Autel is working on obstacle avoidance...but it's under wraps for now. Great review!
Thanks for watching! And thanks for the headsup on the obstacle avoidance.
Peace brother. Out here in South Florida. I just bought my X-Star Premium. Gonna fly for the first time in a (drone friendly) park to get some practice time. Shooting a music video in the carribean next month. looking forward to the footage. I must say your review of this drone gave me the confidence to do it myself. Thanks for this well done review. I subscribed just from watching this.
Thanks brother.
After filming or flying can you send it to someone email right from your iPad , or phone whichever one you're using or do you have to take the SD card and I'll put it in the holder put it in the computer and do all that long process...thanks Dennis
Dennis Reif Doable, yes. But the file would probably be too large to send email without Google Drive or something.
From the tablet attached to the remote controller, you can download the video from the drone onto your device. Once it's downloaded, you can send however you like.
Sometimes it takes a while to download, so what I've done is take the microSD out of the drone, put it in my tablet, then download to the device.
But to answer your question, yes it's possible to transmit the file without removing the SD card, but it would take substantially longer.
Alright thanks brother appreciate it overall how do you like to drone
Dennis Reif Overall I'm very satisfied...especially because of the removable camera and opportunity to swap out and upgrade later. The drone flies pretty damn fast and stable. Looks best during the day or at Magic Hour. The 4k camera it comes with isn't great at night, but I don't fly much at night anyway
your dog made me laugh at 5:50
Go to an AMA club field! They're everywhere. Fly without complaints.
Great info, thanks. Ive been thinking about finally getting a drone personally. I have flown rc airplanes in the past and did some video work with a DJI phantom 3 standard this week. Now I am seriously considering the Autel vs the DJI. Also love the look of your on camera 60p footage, mind letting me know what you shooting with.
Thanks for watching! Of course: I'm shooting with a Canon 80D.
Well done!!!
ok.. I have my Xstar Premium with me while seeing this video and you dog got me laughing. Great vid brov.. From Nigeria
Great video ! I think I am going to get the Autel X *
I think you are pretty cool man hope I here more of you
Great video. I am think of purchasing one this year. It looks simple especially for a beginner
Do it! I think it's a good first drone to own --especially with interchangeable cameras and potential later upgrade
Great vid bro👍👍👍
they are making a new version that does have obstacle avoidance
good vidieo one thing I wanted to know is does the camera have voice like can you here anything from camera if I were filming my kids can I here them through camera
I have a few questions:
1. What's the bitrate of the highest quality 4k files?
2. Can you film with it in hand (without the propellers spinning), a.k.a just as a GoPro on a gimbal?
3. Can you turn it off in flight? (usable when you are in a boat and you can't really land it on land so you grab it from the air and you switch it off)
1. 4K frame rate is 30 fps. (Is that what you meant by bitrate?)
2. Yes. I've tested the camera in the house that way. But it has to stay attached to the drone.
3. Yes. I've tried that too (but not in a boat). Once you grab it, hold the left stick at 6 o'clock (to descend) until the propellers stop. It's hard to hold upright that way one-handed, so be careful as it loses lift and falls sideways in your hand.
Thank you for the reply. However, by Bitrate I mean actual bitrate. Right click any video file and go to properties -> Video Bitrate
I bought the white version. It was on sale. Do you know of a place that sells decals? Great video by the way.
And Autel is coming out with a dual camera. FLIR camera which enables heat signature. Kinda like from the movie Predator. If its not gonna be to expensive i will purchase one. Would be useful for finding lost people or animals.
theone2be33 I've never thought about that application...using the drone to find people. that's brilliant
the 2 new cameras comes out in a few months the showed it off at CES 2017. next camera will shoot 4k at 60fps.
Whaat? I did NOT know that. Honestly, I'll probably upgrade the camera as they are released.
Love the dog...lol
watching this on my autel x-star drone
Great video and review!
Could you do another video on how you downsize and fit the 4k video to 1080?
Of course. I'll try and post a video about it next week!
Awesome!! Thank you!!
Decent video, excellent video taking, new to the drone community and just purchased my very 1st drone, the one in your video. would like more info on your down scailing and camera settings and what software you use for editing???
Thanks for watching fam. Congrats on the drone purchase --you won't be disappointed. I'm using Adobe Premiere Pro to edit. I swore an oath to the Adobe Suite, and it's all I use :)
Regarding the camera settings, you can see in these clips that it is on AUTO...so you can see the exposure and ISO adjust when I spin toward the sun. Normally, I lock in all my settings so the shot stays consistent.
I'll do a video about my settings for next week's vlog. Thanks man!
Genie Deez I really need lessons, lol, but I'm really enjoying it. Having issues uploading to Google drive or Google photos, no matter what setting I video in, they want upload. Any suggestions? Using a galaxy S7 edge and a galaxy Tab S
I'll be patiently waiting for the next video and thanks!!!!!
D Gray I'm using the same phone and tablet! let's figure out what's going wrong for you
Ok, I notice that my video setting was set MOV, so I set it to MP4. BUT I have at least 12 videos on the MOV file, downloaded an app called Media converter which does convert the file. But for some reason I can't find the files the movies are in within that app, it doesn't access it
Very informative review, sir! Would you recommend this quadcopter for a beginner, with absolutely no experience?
I'm an absolute beginner. This is the drone I chose. I love it. You won't crash unless you get careless. Watch for obstacles (especially power lines and things you don't see at first), dont go too fast, high, etc., and you'll be fine. One thing I like is that if you just let go of the controls, it stops and hovers. (But I imagine most drones do that).
Great review, a little long but well worth watching. I’m NOW going to buy one! What kind of tablet do you use with your’s?
Great video bro
Nice dude!
Thanks bro. Nicey video.
Nice video but I'm still considering the dji mav because of the smaller foot print and the crash avoidance.
EXCELENT REVIEW, SOLD ME , SEAMES LIKE A NICE YOUNG MAN TOO
What's the camera used to shoot this video? It keeps focusing perfectly.
Thinking about using this from a boat on a lake. New to the drone world. Curious about getting it back. Will it return to remote? Hard to land on slow moving boat?
you've influenced my decision. gimbal and camera replacement myfactor
That's a huge selling point!
Genie Deez yeah it is. I also like that they are based in USA.
Genie Deez also I'll subscribe.... I'm in Ohio... old and grumpy. great video... they should sponsor you because your video sold me
....cheers.
You might want to remove your gimbal guard BEFORE you turn on the drone. The camera needs to be free so when its turned on it can do its positioning acclimation process. You could inadvertently ruin your gimbal. Just an FYI. I own the same drone. I paid a little more than you but i got the carry case, 4 batteries, and extra prop guards. Happy Flying. Drone on! And dont forget to register your drone.
theone2be33 thanks fam! yeah man I registered immediately!
What 📷 are you using to shoot this video with? awesome man
Thanks Mark! I'm shooting this with a Canon 80D and a Tokina 11-16 lens. I'm doing a video next week on all my favorite lenses, so watch out for that!
Brace flying over those high power lines!!
Will at times cause issues.
Bahaha. It's nerve-racking to say the least

Just have to download an app to connect your phone/tablet to the remote control. Did you end up buying it?

How's the "follow-me" mode? Also, what is your video editing software?
