Best review on this drone I’ve seen. Very informative and well done. Thanks
I've hit the thumbs up and subscribe button without a doubt the best video on the MJX Bugs 16 pro I am new to drones and learned several things from your video that was not explained anywhere else thanks.
Thank you :) 👍
Really great drone. Handles the wind very well. Excellent review & flight Pete!! :) 👍👍
Thanks Alan! 😍👍🍺
Great review Pete. Nice flying quad 🙏👍🙏👍The bugs strikes again👍👍👍👍👍
MJX still churning it out! Pretty soon they will all catch up to the DJI and the likes and bring the gps drone prices down :)
Hey brother! Been awhile so busy. Refreshing to see a classic Pete review👊👊💪💪 like the fast forward.. and showing scan box! Classic bugs!
Thanks Bear! Yep, so much things going on at the moment. Hey, started flying fpv again but all the batts are wasted! Gotta get me some new ones :)
@@RCEscape I get at eBay 10 for around 100 Buck's venom. 1 out of 5 so far went bad after 30 cycle's.. had high resistance on one cell.. so figured. If has high resistance. I try to use as a cruiser bat.. seems they don't like fast discharge.. will fail faster if used for freestyle.. one good punch could kill. But if used as cruiser bat. Last way longer. Usually find at cheap Price around December.. Haven't looked I get 10 for season.. by end of summer have 5 Left.. hopefully.. lol have a squatter in a rental:( so have to wait. It's unbelievable what utility companies do! If he leaves with outstanding Bill. I pay.. Because I own property. They signed contract with them not me? Both electric and water. And can't evict.. so they pay nothing. I pay past bills. And!!! They can't shut off till September. So year no rent. And year of bill's... Or close . Talking to attorney.. but then again renter has the full support of us government. And government makes rules! It's like I'm in a dream?? Oh I can kick out but guess when.. yep September. Shit they will move by then no water or electric..and who has to come with past bills money to turn on? mE!! Plus thousand to fix.. making serious.. called homeless landlord.. lol to old for this shit... Lol
@@sleepingbearffg5008
Ok, this was in the held for review comments.
I usually just delete them all but saw your comment here. There must be a word or something....ah it is shit! lol
That sucks with the tenants the way the eviction moratorium is set up. They about to renew it too!
Nightmare!
Excellent review. This is how it should be done. Simple and to the point
Thank you!! 👍
Very nice, very thorough review. I am on my second B16P - I crashed #1 inside a pavillion (GPS off) on day one. I accidently hit the home button - it shot straight up and hit the roof. When it finally came down it came down hard and broke both rear arms. Oopsie. Cost of learning to fly. This is my first drone. I have #2 with nearly 2hrs flight time almost all with video. So about 3 days of flying outside. Mine will not connect to the M RC PRO app but it will connect to the X-Drone app on my iPhone. That app has a Beginner mode. I haven't messed with it, it may just switch the drone to "Tripod", slow mode. There are 3 features that you did not touch on. Follow, Orbit, and map. What I don't like about map is that it doesn't provide a satellite view. I am very rural and the map has almost no data, I could use the extra visuals to see fence line boundaries, etc. I will try the follow mode later on an electric bike but not any time soon. I will try orbit - after figuring out the settings.
Thanks for your review - it did give me a few things to try, including antenas down rather than up to improve RC reception.
From inside the house - I can get a satellite view - but not at a usable resolution - will only zoom into about half the state - not even down to the county, let alone street level.
But can't upload any flight path pre-flight - must make adjustments and flight paths while in the hoover mode (now that is dumb).
The camera does not provide any EXIF data (camera make, model, focal point), no GPS data, I don't know yet if the flight log can be exported into a GPS mapping/tracking software.
Thank you for your review!
Keep breathing!
This is a really enjoyable video to watch. You did a great job explaining every detail unlike some reviewers out there! Nice!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching :) Appreciate it! 🍺
Nice one Pete great reviews thanks again 🇮🇪
Thanks man :)
Wow. Amazing painterly video quality. Looks like a Van Gogh.
You just made me a bit happier with my decision 😁...I just returned a 4dcr f8 & ordered one of these! Only £180 ...wasn't really ready to fork out alot of cash on my 1st drone..it's quite windy where I live which was another reason for going for this one being a bit heavier but looks like I made a good choice.
Thanks for the review mate.
Nice review!👍 I sometimes miss your fpv.🤩
Thanks bro! Yes, I gotta start flying more fpv. I miss flying too :) 🍺
Nice quad Pete, it seems to work pretty well.
Thanks Greg :)
One if the best budget ones! 🍺
Good quality videos there.👍
I want one. Really like the camera til I saw the range. Flew awsome. Thanks for the info. Benny
When I flew it the next day at the park, it had no issues with fpv range.
@@RCEscape cool, I was gonna get it anyway. Thanks, Benny
Excellent review.....
YOUR DISPLAYS ARE FANTASTIC, THANK YOU. I LIKE MY BUGS 12 HANDS DOWN. MY 12 IS HALF THE PRICE. THANK YOU.
The picture from the bugs 12 is vastly superior to what is displayed here and they are supposed to be very similar. Im pretty sure this is a dud machine that you have as I’ve seen much better quality pictures from other sites.
Great review! You sold me.
Hope you enjoy it!
Excellent tutorial. I ordered one of these and it should be here within a couple of weeks. Hoping our winter is gonzo by then, but I doubt it.🤔
Haven't had it out yet. Winter is still here. Hopefully soon.
A fresh fall of snow has forced me to test my recently acquired Bugs 16 Pro indoors. I tested the camera, specifically, and found that the video is faulty. It pixelates (if that is the correct term) and also leaves a double image when I view it. Bummer. Now comes the process of sending it back for another. I wonder how many hoops I will have to jump through to make this happen.😖
@@MrKen-sj5qi How did you make out with customer service and wat did they do?
sweet bird!
im somehow late to this video but glad i watched it!
will you be checking out the mjx mg-1? i saw a couple reviews but not as good as yours...man you cover everything!
these birds will be super for mounting aio on the roof and fly around grabbing the perfect shots! even without wifi connected! i do it all the time when i fly my good ole b2w and potensic d80(bugs2se clone)...
This is one great drone for giveaways this Christmas.
Haha! I do wish I could for every one :)
During this pandemic times many of us are affected with our jobs/income. We need to budget our money! 😁
Tnks you my fraend,trima kasih rekomendasi dan opolude mjx bugs16 pro,,mantap👍👍 the best,,salam from Indonesia🇮🇩
Thank my friend :)
MJX did very well this time, they got their 3 axis gimbal, eis combo right the first time, the zoom work well and do come out in the recording. I am really impressed with this one, at the price point , that make it affordable. F11 has nothing on this one. i say, its in a class of its on. you did a nice review on this , as always. I fly my B16 , everyday since it arrived. FLIGHT TIME IS LONG.
Thanks Tony :)
I must of gotten a bad out of focus camera on my unit. Everything else is good though. 🍺
Nonsense to say the f11 has nothing on it, the camera is better on the f11.
@@s1dew1nd3r4 and the f11s had way more range
@@user-ou8nx6vo7z plus if you look at two videos from reviewers etc the f11 pro always has a cleaner crisper video footage than the mjx
🤣 it doesn't have the distance or camera quality of flls.... IT'S KIDDIE STUFF!!!!
Very well done review. I purchased a Flyhal FX1 which is practically the same drone. The use of the functions was very informative and I am sure will help beginners. The was my first drone that has GPS which makes flying much easier. Enjoyed your presentation!!
Thanks for watching!
Enjoy your new drone :)
Good day Lodi.. ingat nice review of this b16..
Great Video !! You explained it a Little than the Manual Did .. But About that ZMI Fast charger you using , Do you Always Charged your Bugs Bats with this charger ? if so, how are the batteries Holding up ? Again , Great Tutorial Vid !! Thanks
Thanks! I haven't used the fast charger but was just explaining it. I have since passed the drone to a friend after the review video date so I don't know how it is holding up.
1st upgrade for any bugs gps camera fpv drone. Open up that controller, get to the beeper, add a drop of super glue to down inside the beeper module. She's still going to beep, remember the more drops you add the quieter that beeping gets so test it while you are doing it. Make it how you want it, I sealed mine off all together because I can see what's happening, don't need any beeping at all myself 😆
lol
Just received my drone the ya is slow motion ,lol that could be setting speed ? what worries me is it keeps dropping altitude makes me leery sending it out like it wants to land . My back yard has a DTV dish wonder if it effects it. Thanks
Which model phone are you using with this drone?
Does the drone record audio?...(would be good if you could record yourself & the drone had a speaker!)
I had a Yuneek breeze before , I was quite satisfied by the video & image quality ,I, dont need super range passed 500 feet Now wich one should I buy then : F11 pro or the BUgs 16 ? thanks for the nice video , Dan
For the money, the F11 pro 4k is the best.
I wanted to buy this drone, but i have not seen anybody getting very good distance out of the drone. Rather disappointing. Nice review.👍
just buy a soldering kit from walmart for like $15, and order a 5 or 7 inch fpv drone build kit. Long range high powered drones rely on fpv so you can actually see where you are flying. A decent build for 4-5 miles at 50mph+ will run you about $350-$400, and about 1.5 hours to assemble and tune
@@creamythroat : My drones these days are far, far superior. Do not fly cheap entry level/budget drones any longer.
Rec'd mine at the end of March. Tested it downstairs yesterday for the first time. Found out that the video doesn't work correctly. It (for lack of a proper term) pixelates and seems to jump around and leaves a type of double image. Contacted Banggood for support, and was told to send in the proof of video. Okay. Took it outside today and went through the whole routine again, just in case it started working properly. Video was the same. While outside, I made an attempt to bind the quad to my wifi. No go. No matter what I did, it would not work Just kept the 'Not Connected' in upper left corner of the tablet. Very frustrating. I'm starting to think that I am naive to expect things to work the way they should.
i watched a couple of videos about this drone and it seems to have a bit of blurry footage. is it just me or anybody noticed it too?
what good is 3 axis gimb if the video quality is crap?
Cuantos metros de altura llega y cuanta distancia sin que falle la cámara del celular o mejor dicho la señal
How to shoot in 4k quality or take pictures? because I have a picture/shoot in a terrible quality, what to do, tell me.
I'm thinking of buying this drone, but the photos and videos in the reviews always look blurry, as if the lens were dirty
Nice review Pete, is it better than SJRC F11 Pro 4K ? I cant decide which to buy. Cant wait for your 4K footage .
I like the Bugs but my camera is a bit blurry in the center. If it is just my unit and not wide spread, the Bugs would have been the drone to beat but because of that I’m still a F11 fanboy :)
Even though it's 2 vs 3 axis gimbal? The controller on bugs looks more user friendly ...do u think so...for newbies ? And the bugs have a bottom optical sensor which I think F11 doesn't have...is that a big deal ? Tq for replying.
@@henry1667
I'm not a fan of the yaw axis gimbal so the 2 axis is fine by me. Overall, the Bugs would be better if the camera was sharper.
@@RCEscape ok 👌 tq for your advice. BTW, do I have to calibrate the compass and the drone on each new fight? I intend to use a spare phone that I have, can I connect wz wi fi but minus a sim card ?
I changed my mind, I went for the DJI SE since its miles away in regards to the video and picture quality even though at 2.7k .
Passando para prestigiar aquele super like no canal 👍✌🤜🤛
Thank you :) 🍺
Thanks and no Thanks for the video. :-) I was all set on the SJRC F11 4K PRO and now considering MJX Bugs 16 Pro. Which one do you think is better? Also, Will the charger that you showed work on the SJRC F11 4K PRO?
Why didn't you reply? Did you think I was serious about the "no thank you"? Just in case, This was a poor attempt at humor. Can you please answer my questions.
Just bought the Flyhal badged Bugs 16 pro for £133 with 2 batteries to the UK thats £70 cheaper than the f11 ,cant wait for it to arrive
My first impression of this drone is that it has poor FPV and transmitter range. The FPV video is frustratingly laggy and I wonder why. Colour saturation is on the light side but one thing is clear, the 4K video quality is smooth and not grainy compared with the SJRC F11 4K Pro. The latter has deep colour saturation and the hue is fantastic albeit of grainy quality.
One thing is clear, this drone can really fly and a speed demon as well!
Probably as with all electronic gadgets, I would let it burned in for a few more days and see if there is any improvement. Thanks for the video, Pete.
I'm sorry to say it still is lacking clear video leaving me to wonder if I can somehow change out the darn camera! :)
@@RCEscape it was very unfortunate that my 4th flight ended up in a horrible crash. It flew in an erratic manner (toilet bowl) without any apparent reason. Bad connectivity with the remote controller and poor FPV as well
Good day Sir I see your drone when you lift off it hovers in 1 spot I have crashed my 1,when I lifted off the goes up and then spirals out of control till it hits the ground gps is on do you know why
Have you calibrated it correctly?
Hi, I'm new to the drone and just recently, I have bought a drone called MJX Bugs 16 Pro B16 GPS 4K EIS 3- I have managed to use the basic controller. However, still, I couldn't connect to the mobile apps as once I uploaded the MRC Pro app on the top of the left hand of the mobile, it said Not Connected; I tried many times but still didn't; know how to connect it, while UA-cam video shows the green sport (High Speed)label and another question I'm planning to use this MJX Bugs 16 Pro B16 in remote places in Himalayan Country in Nepal, may I know how to connect to the Wifi in the mobile apps where there may not be the internet access. Please advice. Thank you.
start watching from the 9:05 mark. Connect to the wifi network on your phone setting first and then open the app.
Flies great, good quadcopter. Gimbal seems to be good too, as is the EIS. Video connection leaves a lot to be desired and the overal image quality is disappointing; the middle right center of the frame especially seems to lack detail, and the overal image should/could be sharper which is very visible in your high wind test side by side comparison: your head cam picks up waaay more detail. In other reviews I noticed this overal lack of detail too, so it's not just this particular copy.
Yes, good analysis as always :) The camera on my unit is disappointing. My mobius hat cam blows this thing away and it is 5 years old!
What is the answer in your opinion ? - the Bug or F11 ? Personally I think it is to close to call, I am a MJX fan and have the full fleet however no one would ship multi battery option to the UK so I thought I would try the F11 which would ship ( odd!) So far I'm very pleased.
I'm a F11 fan boy but this 16 pro is good. My only complaint is the focus of the camera. Mine is a bit unfocused in the middle section. It could be that it is just my unit so take a look at other reviews to see if this focus thing is an issue.
Thanks for watching :) 🍺
@@RCEscape Possibly a quality issue with your bug, I have the B20 which has the same sensor and lens but obviously not on a gimbal, which produces superb picture, quality razor sharp. I had a quality issue with the Fimi A3 letting moisture in at first ( soon fixed ). Sometimes these things happen unfortunately. One thing for sure is the value for money, build and features of these moderately priced quads have come on in leaps and bounds lately. ( I speak as someone who has a Mavic in the fleet and fly for pleasure not to be snobbish and look down on anything that does not carry the DJI logo )
@@richardhalliday6469 I'm a little late to this party but I'm glad I still arrivedI. I was in between buying the DJ I mini Se and HA 720e Just came across this video. bought a hs720e took it up for a flight outdoors for a minute. Came in the house and took it for a spin but not just about every lamp in the living room down. it went crazy I just ordered landing gear and blade guards for mines. Paid $244. Think I should keep it, or go with the 16 pro, if I can find one?
I have the same drone as yours but my camera gimbal is tilted
👍
Don't you think the bugs 16 camera footage is a bit fluffy and unfocused compared to the f11?
The scenery is amazing there where is this located ?
Apple Valley Ca.
Made another attempt today to bind the phone app with the drone. No go. I have a Samsung A70 with Android 11. Can't imagine why it's not binding.
I don't know what to tell ya. If you are doing it correctly, it should connect.
You need to do a distance flight
Bom a linha Bugs é boa eu tenho um Bugs 20
Yep, finally a gimbal!
Hi,is the mjx bugs 16 pro the same drone as the Flyhal fx1?
Looks similar. I don't have one so can't be sure.
@@RCEscape Its the same except the body is darker and its £40 cheaper,just bought one 😃
@@lesnorris Where'd you buy it from ? How long was postage ? Please post your thoughts on the on screen video quality, and whether you used an Android phone ,thanks.
@@simonhoneysett4151 Banggood from China, flyhal fx1, £132.63 with 2 batteries, ordered 31/12, expected 8/1/22. Always been on time on other purchases.
Long boi
Yes it's better according to the specs my F11 doesn't have optical flow sensor and led lights underneath
Any problems with batteries charging or being defective?
Not so far :)
Really enjoy review
Maybe its just me but why does it keep loosing fpv
Even at relative short distance
F11-s doesn't this give you 500 plus..
Camera is nice on this drone bugs16
Thanksss
Thanks! It is the wifi connection so it is dependent on how strong it is and your phone makes a difference. But having said that, I got 3000meter connection with the ruko f11 gim2 and the sjrc f7 pro using the same device so it really has to do with the drones wifi network.
Awe ok im a newbie so thank you for taking time to enlight me.
Thanks
This is compatible for redmi note 9 phones?
I don't see why not :)
Drone not available at cufago
Yes, it is out of stock at the moment :)
Ele se torna melhor que o F11 Pro pois o f11 Pro não tem sensores por isso que é melhor, mas a câmera do F 11 Pro é um pouco melhor eu tive um deste ( F11 Pro )
I'm still a F11 fanboy but this one is right there! They are all getting real good :)
Seems like a nice drone but the focus is too soft. It had me wondering if it's time for my annual visit to the eye doctor.
Yes, the sharpness is absent. I don’t know if is just my unit.
I’m uploading a 4k version of a flight and it is the same.
@@RCEscape Default is not the best setting, i had to play with the setting for awhile, before i got it right.
A sharpening filter in post production would probably help a lot, I don't think there's any in-camera sharpening going on
MJX cameras are often somewhat out of focus. I think this is intentional, as it helps the image stabilizer to do its job without noticeable jello effect. I have MJX Bugs 20 EIS, and its camera is kind of blurry too. If I somehow find a way to adjust the lens, I'll make a video on that. Should be useful both for fellow pilots and vendors. Sometimes a simple enhancement in one of assembly stages can lead to a whole product being significantly better.
Range is disappointing. Good drone otherwise. Not oversaturated on the video colors either. Decent camera. The F11 pro is better but costs more.
terrible sharpness in the video????
You’re the first to notice :)
A bit unfortunate. Hope it is not wide spread.
@@RCEscape such a shame if it is? can u upload a raw video file the cloud somewhere?
Bug16 flyes better than f11, but .... it has a bug....sometime it driver crazy go back and flash away of your control and you love your drone !!! F11 not, i had album loose the bug .....for its bug .... very bad !! F11 flessibile always ok at today
f11 camera is way better
