This new drone performed much better than you first one did. I do have to admit its hard for me to watch the unstable video for very long. Glad you were able to sort out some of issues you had during the first flight. Good honest review, and thanks for sharing
@@IdahoQuadcopter Thanks! I just ordered one and I plan on using it for a relatively long distance, a couple hundred feet, but it will require me to rely only on the video footage it provides since I will not have visual of the drone.
Great video, I am struggling with getting the intelligent flight orbit mode to work correctly myself. Did you get it figured out with your Q8? I don't see "John's" email in the description as you mentioned.
The toy drones usually have video that is jumping around, however if you need to have a drone for taking pictures, something like this one would fit the bill. The snapshot photo you actually took by mistake looked pretty good. Must have gotten a bad one the first time around. Thanks for the video.
Well I got this drone the same one that you're doing a review on. Well wasn't trying to be a thief but I ended up being tempted to keep one battery because I crashed the first drone and got a replacement drone and I was tempted to keep one battery. So I did and I came to learn now why they don't have other batteries in stock to purchase separate on Amazon. It does not work with any other drone so that's why you have to get it directly from the manufacturer to send you a battery that is compatible with the drone that you have. So it's not worth it for that reason but the drone it does work. But my first one when I took off it flew backwards and kept flying backwards. Even before I crashed it. I did all the calibration the three steps and all that the second one works great but I came to learn all the batteries are not the same. They're specifically made specifically for one drone out of each that has been made of the tsrc q8 So I would like to keep that in mind to anyone that wants this drone. If you're willing to trust the manufacturer to truly send you a battery that will work specifically for your drone. I don't know to trust it not after that factor. I don't know if they had problems with people having issues with their drone crashing it and then taking extra battery for the other one that worked that they replaced it with. I don't know but if that's the case then it is what it is but I learned my lesson. I ain't going to do that but the teerok t18s drone that I own. I did the same thing that one also. Actually that was the one that the brushless motor I crashed didn't work properly. So when I kept the battery the battery works with it. So I will definitely ask them or tell them I'll pay for it if they ask me about it. I don't like doing stuff like that cuz I'm not a thief but I'm an honest. Joe, but I wouldn't recommend Q8 drone because of those reasons because you can't find it. When you look up for those batteries it's not cool and I rather have purchased a drone through a company that has all the accessories that you need extra propellers they actually sell those and that's taking forever actually comes from China so I have propellers coming for that. Actually. That's for the teerok t18s But the other one I purchased extra too. But I'm keeping the Q8 because this one actually does work but I don't think I'll ever find a battery to replace with it. That would work. I don't trust tsrc store because of that reason cuz how do I know that there other drones are that way too? Just wanted to give this review to let you know my thoughts and what you may think about it. That's if you read all this
I cannot get my SD card to format. Very frustrating because now the quality is very low and the videos get sent to my phone instead of stored. Any advice???
Meanwhile in other news....parts of Meridian were w/o cell phone service for several hours when a drone crashed into a cell tower...... the pilot was no where to be found!
With the price of the mini 4k (which I know is basically a mini 2 in a new frock), there is no way you could justify spending the money on this thing. Like with all these drones all they do is just show how far ahead of the opposition DJI are.

Thank you Ron! I agree the jittery video is not our style!
It is, what it is...dizzying! 😁Not exactly what I'd recommend to a beginner. Thanks for sharing!
So true! 🙂
I'm glad I passed on this one. Good job for giving it a second try
They were nice enough to send me a replacement for the bad one. 👍 Thank you Ryan.
@@IdahoQuadcopter yeah i was glad to see they did that
No flights for me recently, but hey, that was fun, although it probably wouldn't have been fun for you had it hit you 😂. Great video, Marcus
Someone has to do it Alan. It might as well be me. 😄
great review Marcus
I appreciate that Henry!
I got this drone to learn on and its not horrible. Im looking fwd to black Friday deals on for the next step up. What would you recommend ?
Take a look at the DJI Mini 4K. It's a great little drone!
@@IdahoQuadcopter thank you will look out for that black Friday and grab it.
Ive been watching your videos and you do well what the range you got on?
Thank you!
How well is the live feed fpv? Would you say it works well or does it have a delay?
I didn't notice too much lag. 👍
@@IdahoQuadcopter Thanks! I just ordered one and I plan on using it for a relatively long distance, a couple hundred feet, but it will require me to rely only on the video footage it provides since I will not have visual of the drone.
Those clouds are wild.
That was the best part of the flight. 🙂
The only problem I have is connecting the satellite and keeping it in GPS mode. How do you fix that?
You may want to contact TSRC support. 👍
I did. I wasn’t outside. Finally got it to work.
Great video, I am struggling with getting the intelligent flight orbit mode to work correctly myself. Did you get it figured out with your Q8? I don't see "John's" email in the description as you mentioned.
I never could get the intelligent flight modes to work!
@@IdahoQuadcopterThank you for the response. Are you able to share the customer support email that you mentioned would be in the comments?
@@johngumbert5253 John is at sales@tsrctoys.com 👍👍

Yes, the first one was defective. I'm glad they sent me a replacement!

Yes, I read it all! 🙂 Thank you for watching and enjoy your drone!
Thanks again for the video. By the way, was this the drone that wobbled all over the sky when it returned?
It did better than my first flight with it. 😀
👍👍✌️Very beginner drone. Quirky but flys.
Ha! True enough! 😄
Better flight, i did notice your app is not the latest version. Mine is 1.2.0 . not 1.1.9 just a thought. Thanks for the redo.
I'll check that app. Thank you!
@@IdahoQuadcopter no problem
Videos are always enjoyable to watch, and reviews are honest, but the drone has to go! Have a great 4th Marcus.
Ha! Thank you! Happy 4th too! 🙂
I was expecting it to be $50-$75 judging from the video, and it's flying ability.
I agree Caroline. There are better choices for the money.
I did a range test on the tsrc q7 I got 946 meters with fpv the whole way I was shocked and I live in a high frequency area like city wise
Wow! That's great! Really good for a drone like this.
Tengo uno nuevo q7 pero no puedo hacerlo despegar al parecer no se esta conectando el gps
alguien me podria ayudar porfavor
You may want to contact TSRC to see if they can help.
I cannot get my SD card to format. Very frustrating because now the quality is very low and the videos get sent to my phone instead of stored. Any advice???
You should probably contact TSRC. It could be a number of things.
I had the same thing happen with a DJI Air 3 and they replaced it.
seems bit jumpy cam but not bad
Yeah, it is some bumpy video. 👍
Más que aterrizar se desploma agotado
Yes, it flops down more than lands. 😄
Nice 😎
Thanks for the visit Jesus!
Does anybody knows where I can get the right propeller???
You will want to contact TSRC support. 👍
@@IdahoQuadcopter thanks! Do you think anything from Amazon will work?
I can’t get to connect to drone 🙄 I could connect to camera but I can’t get to fly it even on air plane mode
I’m sorry to hear that. I struggled with this one too.
Schimmel Shore
No question about it!
Meanwhile in other news....parts of Meridian were w/o cell phone service for several hours when a drone crashed into a cell tower...... the pilot was no where to be found!
Ha! No chance John! 🤣

I agree. Just save a few more bucks.
I don't know if anyone's having the same problem as me, my camera isn't connecting to my phone even after putting an SD card in!?!?!
Make sure your phone is in airplane mode. 👍

Good deal.
