That's a beautiful view, Erik.... you are blessed :) Things that I love about NC: 1) It has mountains. 2) It has ocean. 3) It has a temperate climate. 4) It's some of the best biker roads I've ever experienced. 5) It votes red. Keep those videos coming, sir :)
Great little drone ! The footage you shot was awesome . Next hamfest you go to , take it with you and get some overhead pictures as well . I'm sure you'll be having loads of fun with it !
Awesome review. We bought the same model for my son for Christmas. And have been wondering about it. It's been really hard for me not to unbox and play with it thanks for the video.
I can't say enough nice things about this. I love it. I've flown it a bunch now and am getting the hang of flying it even when I cant see it. Very cool Drone!
I have not yet- it was telling about charging/discharging a few times to get the full run time. I flew it on a very cold day and the time was a bit less- that is to be expected in the cold.
I have been fascinated with remote control helicopters and drones for years. I'm told drones are much easier to fly and if you get the right one they have stuff to help you fly them. But when I looked into them the prices were so high that I just couldn't see it. It was not like could make money with it. I figured it would be like the rc cars and trucks I have. They are real fun with others but tend to just sit around otherwise.
The prices have come down the more technology improves- I wish I was better at video games to know the remote better- But practice will make me better.
Hey guys....(Long time listener. First time caller). Lol Your about as normal a my cup of joe n the am. So my question is. Are you familiar with Air cooled VW Engines?. Secifically My point to this question. If you are infact a good knowledge base in Air-cooled Engines ( of the VW persuasion) do you have any feedback for identification or identifiers or marker for engine size. Specifically on the Engine itself.
@@FarpointFarms Great video as always! I bought the Promark GPS drone from Walmart 4yrs ago, (Black Friday sale). As a test, I flew it to its limits several times, powered off the controller and it returned every time. I was very impressed with this $99 DJI clone. Crappy camera but replaced it with a GoPro knock off that recorded the same quality pics in your video.
@Farpoint Farms before you upload any drone area footage for commercial purposes $.01 or more per the FAA rules make shore you have your part 107 FAA test...I don't want to see you end up like Philly drone live a $182 fine from the Philadelphia FAA...just looking out for you
Beautiful place to live in peace, you're living the dream my friend. Great video.
Thank you

It's my little slice of heaven.
Amazing... Gorgeous view. Some views remind me of Mt Airy NC or Cherokee.
We are blessed to live in such a beautiful area

That is a great idea- I will have to do that
@@FarpointFarms I'm sure you'll get some snow scenes as well , next October fall colors also.
Beautiful country around you!
It really is! The trade off is it is 40 minutes to town
And to think I complain about being between two hills. :) You win! Thank you for another excellent review.
I like to say that I live in a fish bowl with all the mountains around me. Thanks for watching

Very cool Drone!
Pretty damn cool!!
I was really impressed with it. I can't wait for the first real snow to take more footage
That's awesome, I'm happy for you.
Thank you!
Very cool Eric !
Thanks!
Pretty killer footage’
It's a great tool for aerial views.
Erik was a good boy and santa Ruko hooked him up! 😃 Merry Christmas to you and Jen bro!! 73's!
I must have made the nice list this year- Merry Christmas to you as well
great music for the video. how quiet is it??
You can hear a buzzing sound- kinda like a very large mosquito
Great video, can you unplug the cable from the controller in order to plug in a longer c-usb cable to be able to use a tablet?
I am not sure if you can or not. I don't think it would work well since the cell phone attaches to the remote control.
@@FarpointFarms I found out you can, I bought a longer c to c cable and it works great
Very cool, the price is great.
I though the price was fair- I have had so much fun with this one, I kinda wish I had it a while ago
When you hook up you cell phone to the controller (so you have real time video), do you need cell phone towers to be in the area?
We were on wifi so I am not sure about cell service. We don't get cell reception at our house
Does this have direct or gear drive?
I am not sure= Sorry
Seemed nice when its flying, been waiting on support for 3 days, engines wont start
Oh no, I hope they get back with you- let me know how it goes
I see Vevor makes a pizza oven. Now you can do a 2 in 1 video. A pizza oven review and a cooking video all in one.
Brother, I like the way you think! I'm on it!
Beautiful area. I just found a once used on ebay and i got a bid on it.
I can't wait for the first real snowfall to take it up again for the view. I hope you win your bid
Did you stress test the batteries? If they say 30 mins, my experience is more like 20.

It's my Christmas present to myself... A new bird for my fleet
We played with this again a few days ago- I am in love

I do like the VW air cooled one- I have some videos on my other channel Farpoint Farms Restorations
Two miles , Wow ! That's no toy even though you look like a kid at Christmas opening up that box!
I would be afraid to go 2 miles in the mountains here- With the elevation changes I might get it stuck
I believe the rules limit the drone to 400 feet above ground level.
this one does have the limiter on it- I am not big on breaking rules
@@FarpointFarms You have helped to get me back into CB radio after nearly 35 years. I appreciate your videos. Merry Christmas.
the same to you
NICE. NOW IM GOING SHOPPING AGAIN. YOU MAKE ME SPEND TOO MUCH $$$$
It is not my fault that you have no self control :)
Never press the "Home" button on the controller. The drone will automatically fly back to China :)
this one has a "kill" switch in case of major problems. It even states not to use it unless it is a catastrophic problem

😂
This is true!!!
Very good. 😢 all I got was coal😊
Coal is also a nice gift- it can keep you warm in the winter, the drone can't
My lunch pail is way bigger than that. Just sayin. Haha
Your lunch bag is too big then- just kidding, this is much smaller than mine
Can you wear goggles while flying this drone?
I am not sure why you would want to wear goggles while flying it
@@FarpointFarms I wanna feel like I'm flying! Isn't that the point? Just like FPV.

Thanks for keeping an eye out, I know there are lots of rules for drones
What a terrible review. No set up or connection info. Using your remote without attaching the joy sticks. You suck
Jesus Christ son, this might be the best comment of the year- Cheers
