Where are Jakespeare's old BFX episodes? Didn't Jake have a patreon for Indy mogul and was working on it while Erik was the host for a while? This all happened a year or two ago, and there are some information about the old BFX episodes on Facebook and Twitter still.
For the money I would get the $50 one cuz I’m poor and cuz it’s not that expensive I wouldn’t be too worried about crashing it. It would be a bit of fun to play with and race around
mavic 2 is 1500? proves that dji is unneccessarily expensive and their drones are just plasti and a camera, yeah its got altitude hold and stuff but that actually hinders the shots you can get....
This comparison is like: "what's better a turd or a car? you can park the turd easier cause it's small, but in terms of driving, the car definitely wins"..
The OP is correct. If you want a decent experience that won't put you off the hobby, then this isn't the drone to buy. These are cheap, useless junk. If you want a camera drone, save the money and buy a DJI. If you want to really fly, get into building your own models and start learning. There are two sides to this hobby. Pilots and camera operators. You choose.
I’ve worked with this drone, and I decided to take out the WiFi camera. Once the camera system was out the drone worked like it was really worth the $50. This is because both the WiFi camera and the remote run on 2.4ghz causing constant interference between the two making it harder to work with all components together.
@@margueriteoreilly2168 I would recommend the Holy Stone hs 340 it cost around 50-60 dollars depending on where you live. It is a very good first drone.

The mavic mini would’ve been the better drone to compare the cheap drone with based on the specifics he was looking for. He compared two different weight classes in the drone world.
This is like flying in first class! Once you get a taste of it you'd never want to fly in economy ever again. Same thing as with flying drones. If you've tried the Mavic2Pro for sure you can never settle on a $50 drone after!
I have several DJI products, including a Matrice. I still fly a 100 dollar Ryze Tello(yes a dji product)around my house. Small ones can still be fun. I just enjoy the hobby. Now I have tried the crappy ones. Most flat out suck.
@@GriffinHammond I doubt it. Mostly because that doesn't interest me. But comparing a toy to a "pro" drone, is kind of pointless. Even on a channel about making budget videos.
@@branpod there are other way to show how crappy these things are compared to an expensive drone. I know, I bought one a few years ago, for the sole purpose of learning how a drone operated.
With my P8 mini drone it took some time fussing around with the Camera App, but it now drone camera easily connects to my Android and everything works fine. the Flight Trim can more easily be adjusted when on the ground, just activate the Trim button and tap the Right stick in the direction you want the drone to lean to. If it's flying away forward, just tap the right stick back a couple of beeps, wait three seconds and hear an A-OK beep and fly. If you need more adjustment, just repeat the process, but land it first. Images and video are automatically saved to Android.
Regarding the few comments that say that this isn’t a fair comparison since they’re at each polar extreme, I think this video still does a good job at providing information to newcomers. There are probably a lot of people just entering the filmmaking hobby/profession and they might tell themselves “I’ll just get the cheap one for now and get the more expensive one when I can afford it”. It will probably be counterproductive to do so since the flying ability of the cheap one won’t be as good as the more expensive one, not to mention the quality of video, as was said in the video. Basically the “experience” someone might tell themselves they’ll get by going with the cheap one at first ultimately won’t be worth it. Either way, these past two videos have been great and I’m really enjoying the rebranding!
I'm planning on getting the insta 360 R with it's drone mount, so the video quality on these drones won't be used at all since my insta 360 will be on it instead.
For you it’s not just a $5 registration fee. For you, you would need a part 107 license which is around $150 and you need to take classes. Unless this video is just unmonetized. If this video is monetized and you flew under recreational flying… then you can get in huge trouble and face a bunch of fines and possibly jail time.
Griffin, this is a great comparison for those who are just getting started in filmmaking. It evaluates important differences in the most crucial areas, like portability, flyability, and image quality. I'd love it if you did "High Cost vs Average Cost". Oh, and love seeing you and Ted collaborating on the resurrected channel. Thanks!
I've been watching indy mogul for a long time, since I think 8 or so years or something, on and off. I struggle alot with mental health but have tried to pursue film as a hobby. Just love channels like this and film riot, the originals!! Used to love frugal filmmaker too!!! Anyway I've just created and uploaded my first documentary short and entered it into a film contest! Thanks for all the videos!
Love it and great to have you back, Griffin! I've purchased a couple cheap drones and they're a lot of fun for the few minutes the battery lasts. I'm not sure about this one, but one way I can tell the battery is getting low on my cheapies is it begins to drift a lot more and become basically unresponsive. Haven't had it plummet out of the sky though! I've been tempted to grab one of these copies, but the 1080p camera version, but after seeing this, I think I'll save my $80 :)
This series might have more value if they got cheap items with better quality. Comparing the Mavic 2 Pro to a toy drone accomplishes nothing. It would've been more productive if they got a GPS drone around $100-$400 price range, which should still be in a commando film maker's budget.
I would like to see a more balanced comparison: the Mavic Air 2 versus a cheaper but not bottom-of-the-line drone. Come on, was there any doubt which way this one would turn out?
I had an echine like yours and it was great. Reliable and NEVER once fellout of the sky. I think your echine must be a faulty one. BTW, did you know the drone has 3 speeds so there shouldnt have been a need for you to chase the drone unless it was howling on the day and yes, the antennas are fake.
I got a $57 drone off eBay. As soon as the drone lifts off, it shoots straight backwards and requires backward (backward is forward) input to bring it forward. Calibration registers as lights on drone blink/unblink, but does not result in any improvement. Controls are backward - right is left, left is right, forward is backwards and backards is forward.
The FPS just committed suicide on the knockoff, probably a 1999 camera which probably brings the price way down. Due to my further research the price plummeted down with regard to fields like like pixels in the camera, (The Knockoff apparently has 3 thousand while the Mavic Pro has 12 million), Plus the drone is less than the weight of an Orange so I don't think anyone can take you seriously if you are pro and using this drone, Thanks for the video, Indy!
Eachine actually makes decent quadcoptors. Not the quality of DJI, but not nearly as expensive. You don't have to download upgrades and get permission to fly with Eachine quad either. DJI? YEP. The antennas are fake.
Im VERY late to the party.. But let me say this: I usually skip intros. Cuz they annoy me and waste my time. But yours... Sr, I had to go back and watch it twice! Thanks for the video, just what i searched for :-)
Being an Inspire owner I find comparisons like this silly. Eachine and Hubsan make decent products for their price point and if it weren't for them our hobby wouldn't be as popular. Of course the radio isn't the best or the glass on the camera compare to my x5 Zenmuse camera but it gets folks like my kids something to start on before I introduce them to say the Mavic Air 2. the production was nice in this video though.
Try an Eachine EX5, about $150 in Canada. Very jumpy frame rate video with fair enough image quality. It has GPS, brushless motors and it is really easy to fly ~ it hasn't fallen out of the air yet. It is just good enough to make me want a little more. There is no gimbal and no onboard micro SD recording but you can adjust the camera up and down remotely. Now if only the video was smoother.
A casual user might not think the extra $$$ is worth it when compared to a $300 drone. Depends on what you want from your drone. Vanity plays a large part in people buying the $1000 drone over the $300 one.
I really love the new Indy Mogul format. Happy to see the revival of cheap thing vs. expensive thing too. I really love what you have been putting out so far, good luck and hope to see more.
I have a bunch of drones, including several expensive drones, but I love the cheap ones! I have two those $50 drones just like the one used in this video. $39.99 at Ollie’s, great learning drones!
Real talk. The Eachine was probably WAY more fun to fly

Great video. Can you power the drone on and off with the remote control?
Does the battery keep it power if the drone is not powered on?
How dare you insult dji with that garbage
The eachine is the drone equivalent to fainting goats😂
Cheap drones are much more fun to fly because if you crash it, you dont really care
Personally, I prefer the $50 drone. Maybe its because I just have $50.
Dude you just roasted ur self😂😂

👍😆
Realest comment!! I see y’all ain’t 600+ acting like y’all never copped the $50 one behind your screens 😂😂😂

The DJI drone is just the best value at it's price point. Espe the DJI mini SE
Straight truth, I have a Mavic 2 Pro and it IS the best buck for the bang. DJI will always have my loyalty for filmware.
Yh but for something to mess around with(crash and for beginners )the 50 bucks drone could really help people get good at piloting the drone

Title: Cheap VS Expensive Drone
The Video: "Cheap Thing VS Expensive Thing"
idk how but that made me laugh and entertained me
Come on. Not a fair comparison at all. There are better "cheap" drones out there, but a 720p vs. 4k, $50 vs. $1400?
Oh, then you'll hate next week! Can a $42 plastic bag compete against a $2200 underwater housing?
I thought this response was a joke, and then I got to the end of the video...

You can be entry level or pro... doesn't matter. You know video quality when you see it. There's no need for a video like this for that.
Technically dji mavic series are the cheap ones
I'm planning on getting the insta 360 R with it's drone mount, so the video quality on these drones won't be used at all since my insta 360 will be on it instead.
Buying cheap one first is worth it to learn how to fly, not risking to crash $1500 in the first hour
I bought a drone from aliexpress that was 200 USD, thinking I could save some money. None of the footage was ever usable. Stay away!
For you it’s not just a $5 registration fee. For you, you would need a part 107 license which is around $150 and you need to take classes. Unless this video is just unmonetized.

To solve the problem for the camera quality issues for the cheap drone is just add a tiny camera on the drone 👍🏻
Great video! I love flying drones and in November I got my first DJI drone, also flying close to Westchester.😂
I just love to see Griffin host anything , I don't care what that thing is!
Thank you, Pierce!
I'm so glad to see Griffin again, feels like ages have passed
Good job for acting like this is a real comparison lol. The Eachine was literally created to fool people and offer enough "features" to not be sued.

This is like comparing a paper clip to a private jet.
Griffin, nice to see you back! So many emotions!
Good to see you too!
Yeah id still go with the cheap one because I dont have 1500-2000 dollars to spend on a drone
Get Eachine E520S instead of E58. Much better drone for similar money.

I don't know that E-58 had motion blur down pat, and talk about the dynamic and unique shots you can get well its falling out of the sky!
Glad you're back !!
In the next episode, we compare Apples and Oranges. Why not use a Mavic Mini for this test? It's just absurd.
For $50, the Eachine E58 is an awesome way to learn! I just Subscribed
Should I start with this cheap one instead getting the mini mav
Get the dji mavi mini

I have a few of the $50 drones. They are nice drones to play around with. But yes, wind...any wind affects the flight.
If the wind is strong then put the speed on the eachine e58 to 3
It's $75. Not $50. But WELCOME BACK GRIFF! Look forward to new episodes!
