Bought one for the kids and have had zero issues with it. Flies to 394 feet and have flown it right at a mile with zero issues.. Battery life is very good. The remote runs out if power before the drone, but for the prices it's better to learn on this than say a much more expensive model. Jmo If I had the same issues he's having it would've gone back day 1.
I’m going to give it another try but typically it doesn’t matter if you’re pointing up or down when calibrating. But hey if it makes a difference I’ll definitely put out another video showing it
HI there, only just come across this video, I noticed you were flying next to some power lines, there is your main source of GPS interference. When I fly these cheaper GPS drones I try and remove my watch / jewellery and avoid any location that may have metal built in to concrete, I found out the hard way just as you have done here.
@@Vosper385 yes you’re not wrong about the interference being close to the power lines. However I’ve since followed up with the same issues in an open field where there should be limited interference
Just a thought. Did you try the compass calibration with the camera facing down rather than up. Not sure if it would make a difference but worth a try.
Yes I noticed that the compass calibration should have been down NOT up and that's why the Drone was acting up + being positioned under the overhead power cables will interfere withe the magnetic field between the controller and the drone. So try another spot to test and you'll find that these problems will be history..
I have this same one and I do like it...shockingly good for....i think I paid $125 US. The selling point for me was the built in screen, NOT having to synch this in with and app on my cell phone. Mine can easily stay in the air 20-30 minutes. Can you explain headless mode in more detail?
The built in screen is what I really liked about this as well. Headless mode is a flight feature that allows the drone to respond to the pilot's controls based on the pilot's position, rather than the drone's orientation. This means that no matter which way the drone is facing, the pilot can control its movement based on their own perspective So no matter what direction the drone is facing, it will move in the direction that you input into the controls if the drone is facing sideways, but you pull the sticks back the drone will come sideways back towards you
No Joke I have one. If you put the obstacle sensor on. It stops toilet bowing. It doesn't even have to be on. It could be a short or it needs the wire or factory defect. But it flies well with it on. If it toilet bow. You should try putting it on.
Bummer this one isn't better Dan but it's not really surprising. Most of these offbrand drones disappoint. I had been eyeing these new drones that come with controllers with built-in screens and that is a great upgrade. Hopefully we will see the soon from Holy Stone and Potensic where we have a chance for it being a decent drone.
Hey Ryan I was hoping this going to be better but then reality hit 🤣🤣🤣 Unfortunately if Holystone releases something similar it’s going to be overpriced and most likely priced to be at a DJI level
@@Van_City Do you saw the new drone bangood get out for 112E (2 batteries) is a toysky s197 happears better than this one ,a screen controller and sd card support in the drone and EIS ! ( no gimbal unfortunely ) but happears a more quality cheap drone !!! Still not a single review since its very new but im curious !
The instability of this drone is certainly concerning. I have a Holy Stone 360S which is about $50 cheaper but has no camera stabilization. Yet, the HS360S is super stable, even under windy conditions. Thanks for this review. I was considering getting this drone but after watching that drone flail around, it was a deal-breaker for me.
Mine is quite ok. Got 950m with no problems, for three times. App is not working well, but, overall it is OK. Sorry for *** in banggood, but app is very important to me! All the best!
Anyway, because I am a very curious person, I have opened it, to see which ones of my favourite vtx transmitters will be fine to fit in, for better quality. And I found out that the tiny Trump will be just fine. So, now will start the challenge! I always modified my drones, trying to make them better. Sometimes I succeed, sometimes not, but the challenge is great and keep my head working. Good luck!
@@Van_City It's my experience that drones have 'WiFi families'. Probably the IP address range is the same. For example some work with HFun Pro, some work with RX, etc. But I have never been able to connect a different controller. Of course the controller is 2.4 Ghz and the app to camera is 5.8 Ghz. So perhaps only the 5.8 Ghz can work with different drones and the 2.4 Ghz is static allocated to a Mac address? That is also what happens if you 're-bind' a controller. In theory all WiFi boards can be reset. Because in this case the DHCP is in the drone it should be controller that has to be reset to get a new 2.4 Ghz WiFi address. If the phone connects through a cable with the (booster) controller than the controller hands out the address to the drone and to the phone. You switch the controller on first. This is as far my knowledge about WiFi networks goes. Luckily I know more about rockets to the Moon.
Purchased this drone for Christmas Calibrating per instructions before each new flight However the drone self returns home each time after a short flight without pilots request to do so Any ideas on how to stop this?
Great video my only tip is to either have no background music while your talking or lower the volume. It kinda make the video for me unwatchable but I did because of the subtitles so thanks for that
These little toy grade drones are getting pretty nifty these days. Come a long way since 2016 when i started lol...unfortunately still not good enough lol.....good review buddy
They sure have come along ways but not even close to being good enough. Even some of the early gps drones were way better than this. My 1st GPS drone was a mjx bugs 2c which I think is far superior to this drone even with it not having a live video feed option it still was a solid reliable flyer.
@@Van_City question: seems like most tech stuff now coming out of CHINA, and like drones becoming a bog thing, SMART PHONES being number #1 though, my question is did you see or know of any of the costs of producing any of those items/drones? And that question from me seeing a post that claimed the COST if the IPHONE made in CHINA was approx $10 to manufacture, true or a lie ya all think? sure makes me wonder and even if it was not true, then WHAT are the real costs of producing them, cells and/or drones??? More info i gathered, that IPHONE went for or costs now about $700 to buy and own, is this same same thing now going on with how many and which other items that the USA allows to be sold from CHINA? And for anyone to start making them in the USA, there then must be a tariff to at least level the playing field, and make things fair. i think and say the USA can and will, with the help of GOVT, produce better quality tech, EX: DRONES then anyone else in the world could ever hope to do!!!
@@johnmcneilly7287 Could be calibration or bad GPS module also. You launch it and it just shoots off and crashes. I'm not sure spare parts are available yet. Since it doesn't fly anyway, see if there is a loose wire. Or try lube the motor. Maybe some sand got in? Cheap drones are cheap drones. But some are better than others. I would not recommend this S159. All the money went into the remote screen. My L200 Pro is much better. Not saying it's a DJI. But great video quality for $100.
Well, I thank you for the video review, but due to all that early toilet bowl I will have to pass. Keep up the good vids though I enjoyed it and was just what I was hoping for.
I had this drone yesterday delivered by aliexpress, i tried and everything was stable, only the camera dont have gimbal, your clibration on gps should be facing down not facing up,..if you try this and still have that toilet bowling maybe theres really something wrong, coz minds really stable and its really holding his position..
You should never attempt to calibrate a compass near power lines as the strong magnetic field generated by the electrical current running through the lines will significantly interfere with the compass needle, providing inaccurate readings and rendering the calibration process useless; always move to an open area away from any power lines, buildings, or large metal objects when calibrating a compass.
Great review NZ lucky we have you to weed out the trash. Toilet bowling was some of the worst I've seen & image quality not great even for a budget drone. Cheers
These definitely need better cameras, and micro sd in the the drone. My camera actually look better recording through the app. I made the mistake of getting white and it’s easy to lose sight of. I could see it the other day and it had dropped the WiFi connection, and when I pressed the return home button it came from the opposite direction I had lost connection and sight of with it. The S167 gps is a lot better drone for about half the price.
@ I absolutely love mine! I’m getting about a quarter mile range with good video feed, and the camera is pretty good. The s132 and s136 also have good cameras on them.
a drone that flys without an app? with all the FAA interferance and restrictions this is of interest to me, they cannot block gps but i dont understand if the fcc could somehow ground drones, the hobby has been under continued attack from government and public haters, are you sure the drone was at fault here and not interferance, if flying with controler screen mabe switch your cell phone to air plane mode? for the price i am ordering one to test myself,new sub
ordering a white version now, all that they have built into this system i highy doubt the tb issue is present with every drone, they would be buried under returns, i am protected by ebay guarentee so buy now, price is right $145 including tax, case 8gig card 3 batteries ill comment on the video soon
@@Van_Cityi am still waiting for my 159 yesterday it was finaly out for delivery and never arived, a new carrier apparently delivered to wrong address, thier looking for it now, if its never recovered ebay with refund the money and i start another long wait
@@chaoticadventure QUESTION: just incase you didnt see me ask prior, do you or anyone here know anything about the cost/s of producing of DRONES in CHINA? or any idea what it may be? I saw someone claim the other day that the IPHONE 14 was going for around $700 usd, and CHINA cost to produce was about $10USD, is this even possible, perhaps I really do not know, and was trying to now find out if anyone know more and would share what they know, thank you....HHO
I think it is an inherent fault in all of them. I tried calibrating every way possible but no luck. We have been scammed unfortunately bud. I am going to try and get a refund but don't hold much hope.
@@zanebraunstein8366 My L200 Pro is $100 is much much better. Some cheap drones are pretty good. Some are pretty bad. But of course a DJI Mini or Fimi Mini is better still. The toilet bowl is probably the GPS module. Turn off GPS and fly it in optical flow mode. At least it's something.
@@driewiel Toilet bowling is usually due to a bad compass calibration. Redoing it in exactly the same place as was done here is not the best idea if there is magnetic material in the ground - or reo-bar in a concrete slab. Your suggestion to switch off the GPS Mode would prove Yay Or Nay though. 🤔 Most older drones like MJX only need 7 satellites to work properly. 😉😊
thats why you must put the sencor on,no matter what. And you can deactivat the GPS so the Drone start also without any GPS. you maybe need to learn befor you make any video.
@@Van_City sorry i dont know you was the Inventor of this Drone in the first Place and know why you have built this Sencors,i am soo sorry,Man. We are so stupid and built stuff we dont need,it,s ok,Man,you are the Boss.
Oh boy nothing is good on this drone!!!!!😂😂😂 for that price this is unacceptable. Just get a potesic atom se! Even used for 110€ it is much better. New you get it for around 200€ i would never buy this drone
mmm we all want a budget one us peeps that have never had a drone just to test our skills, the screen is what most people want, saves fannying about with a phone, however the drone camera should be full axis gimbal, for front view or back veiw and spin side to side for quick area serching while drone is still, think the out of control problem is just an unlucky buy, remember children put these things together in china so some will be faulty.....mmmm the dji pro 3 seems to be the way to go as both screen and drone are top quality, and 249grams this s159 comes in at 260grams so this drone will need a licence..... A DJI will be an extra £200 thou!..mmm🤔..vani's lucky the drone did'nt just fly off, lost!!!🤭🤭🤭
@@Van_City I thought it could be a nice super fast to launch selfie drone for my bike trips. That's so important. If you can't launch it within seconds you just are not gonna bother with the phone and stuff and ride on. But it took ages to get satellites. And I thought maybe it has a good working follow-me? But the controller doesn't seem to have GPS. Then the toilet bowl. Can't trust it. Worst drone for beginners. The video quality was also total crap. 4k with EIS, yep sure. Stone Age cavemen had better cameras. Like I said, my L200 Pro, that's a great drone for $100. The only plus about this S159 is that it will fly away so you can spend your afternoon with more pleasant things.
*WOW!!!* Que decepcionante!! - *Yo vendo drones y pedi 6 de esos S159. Influenciado por el anuncio. Pero me parece que es un engaño y un mal producto.* Gracias por tu video. Tratare de devolverlos y recuperar mi dinero. No quiero problemas con mis clientes.

I bought one of these and the satellite stays in a hill and when I calibrate it, it doesn't give the beep that confirms that it's okay. Can you help??
It took 1-1.5 minutes for it to gather enough satellites. Try leaving it a bit longer after calibrating
I’m impressed you were able to fly it. Crap doesn’t float.
It wasn’t easy. That thing was challenging to keep it from flying away
Mine is amazing flying very well. And responding every commands...

I’ll have to try it again. I’ve had several cheaper gps drones and it really didn’t matter either way up or down.
Mine worked just fine! I really like it. I think he is testing a defective one.
Glad your’s worked out. 👍💯
I'm surprised you didn't try it with the obstacle avoidance sensor.
I rarely do with these obstacle avoidance sensors as them being infrared really don’t work well in daylight

Had it in my cart to buy it but deleted it , no thanks ! Once I seen the Hoover wasn’t good I knew already it wasn’t good and the toilet bowl effect
Yeah that toilet bowling was horrible 🚽🧻
thats why you must put the sencor on,no matter what. And you can deactivat the GPS so the Drone start also without any GPS. you maybe need to learn befor you make any video.
You are wrong the sensor does not need to be mounted. Thanks for the advice “Tips”
@@Van_City sorry i dont know you was the Inventor of this Drone in the first Place and know why you have built this Sencors,i am soo sorry,Man. We are so stupid and built stuff we dont need,it,s ok,Man,you are the Boss.
@@Chefchen21 well at lest you can recognize your mistake. Now if you just took some time to concentrate on your spelling 🤔
Look at the state of the camera when flying 😂😂
I know 😬😂😂
Oh boy nothing is good on this drone!!!!!😂😂😂 for that price this is unacceptable. Just get a potesic atom se! Even used for 110€ it is much better. New you get it for around 200€ i would never buy this drone
It sure was disappointing, I was really hoping it was going to be much better
I just got it, but my remote keeps beeping
@@soundjamzmine does that when the the remote controls needs charging
Yes that’s correct or it’s possible it’s in headless mode or the drone battery is low
mmm we all want a budget one us peeps that have never had a drone just to test our skills, the screen is what most people want, saves fannying about with a phone, however the drone camera should be full axis gimbal, for front view or back veiw and spin side to side for quick area serching while drone is still, think the out of control problem is just an unlucky buy, remember children put these things together in china so some will be faulty.....mmmm the dji pro 3 seems to be the way to go as both screen and drone are top quality, and 249grams this s159 comes in at 260grams so this drone will need a licence..... A DJI will be an extra £200 thou!..mmm🤔..vani's lucky the drone did'nt just fly off, lost!!!🤭🤭🤭
Definitely would recommend a DJI even a used one over this. You’re right I was lucky it didn’t fly away, it sure seemed like it wanted to 🤣😉
@@Van_City 🤭🤭🤭
Well thx for displaying this drone, absolutely not for me now, chang to Peng Pro 2 😘😘
Yeah unfortunately mine didn’t work great at all
I had high hopes for this drone. Almost ordered it. But it's crap. L200 Pro is a million times better. Same price.
Yeah it really was disappointing.
@@Van_City I thought it could be a nice super fast to launch selfie drone for my bike trips. That's so important. If you can't launch it within seconds you just are not gonna bother with the phone and stuff and ride on. But it took ages to get satellites.
And I thought maybe it has a good working follow-me? But the controller doesn't seem to have GPS.
Then the toilet bowl. Can't trust it. Worst drone for beginners.
The video quality was also total crap. 4k with EIS, yep sure. Stone Age cavemen had better cameras.
Like I said, my L200 Pro, that's a great drone for $100. The only plus about this S159 is that it will fly away so you can spend your afternoon with more pleasant things.
🤣🤣🤣💯
Holy shit that looks a handful 😂😂
It really was. I’m surprised it didn’t fly away or crash
@Van_City 😂😂,, made for an entertaining video anyway ,!!!! Thank god for real reviews
@ 🤣🤣🤣
Comprei esse drone. Mas parece que não foi um bom negócio.
Yeah, unfortunately, it really did not lock onto the GPS very well and flew horribly. Also, the camera was very poor quality.
Look at it this way. Some businessman once bought the Eiffel Tower as scrap metal because they were going to tear it down.
🤔
Exactly
*WOW!!!* Que decepcionante!! - *Yo vendo drones y pedi 6 de esos S159. Influenciado por el anuncio. Pero me parece que es un engaño y un mal producto.*
Gracias por tu video. Tratare de devolverlos y recuperar mi dinero. No quiero problemas con mis clientes.
Yeah I was hoping it would’ve been a lot better than it is. Maybe mine was defective and the ones you ordered will be fine
no thanks!!! 🤔
Exactly 👍
Crap thing
Unfortunately yes
You received it for free. ayy
No I purchased it
