Learn to fly one of these before investing the money in a DJI camera drone. Better to crash one for $21. Learn to fly, without the computers first. Use this from time to time to hone those skills.
Absolutely bright👍
Can you add those guards that go around the propellers?
Only if the drone comes with them
Hi, ordered thanks for your great review
Hope you enjoy it!
@@CAPTAINDRONE798
Hi, it's for my son he 9 .
Got it for £22.65 with two batteries with your code👍
Love the channel,me and my son always look forward to your next video 😊
Ho Captain. Thank you for all the nice job you do. A few years ago, I bough a Power Egg Wizard version drone after weatching your videos about it. It is great but, suddenly, the company seems to have dessaper and you cannot even connect the drone to the wi-fi. Could you give any info about that? We cannbot beleieve it
No idea. I have not tried any of the POWERVISION products in a very long time.
Does the obstacle avoidance work
I've destroyed so many of those toy drones that I seriously lost count. Of course, that was before I got my MA2 and A2S. Some of those were interesting, and so is this one.
Thanks for sharing Steve. 👍👍👍
funny how cheap this technology is now. Sure it does not have any fancy technology, but for 20 bucks is a fully functional drone with camera that actually can record something
I've become addicted to these cheap drones from Amazon and Banggood (I will never not chuckle at that name). Funny enough, the addiction began with a gifted Potensic Atom acting as a weird sort of reverse gateway drug. It's been three months and along with the Atom I already have 3 cheapo Amazon drones... send help.
I know that addiction well 😀
Haha -"I'm Steve and I'm a Drone Pilot" & " I've crashed it 100 times already" Mmmm - Don't take up passenger plane flying will you Steve.... 🤣
For that price, buy it, crash it, learn how to fly before buying a more expensive one- great fun👍
I just had to buy one! It’ll be good practice 😂 I have a DJI Mini 3 pro but when the grand kids say “can I have a go” at least I won’t feel bad saying NO! But you can fly this one👍
Pls make a video of e99s drone
I have the Eachine EX5 that I’m thinking about making it into a FPV drone lol it gets around 18 mins of flight 🎉
I bought the S99 Pro after watching your video. Wish I had got this instead. $10 less and the batteries are less than half the price. I took the off the pointless obstacle avoindance(7.2g) and bought a $40 Hawkeye 4K "Split" Camera to get some really good video with Gyro data.
Hi there just wondering how high does it fly up to can you kindly please let me know thanks I'd appreciate it very much.
As high as the roof of your house
Thank you but the obsical ovodise is beeping and mqke it lose control
Nice drone I like it from Philippines
For a $21 drone, that's extremely impressive as normally drones at that price are kids toys while this seems to be a barebones starter drone for newbies to practice with before they get a decent dji drone or something
I think the price is right for a toy drone. A great gift for a kid or someone who wants exposure to the world of drones. Better than my first experience with flying one. Good review, fun too. 👍👍😀
Best of all: Fly it around in your house and everything is super clean and tidy.
31.00 dollars canadian. 6.00 dollars shipping is a good deal?
I like the low budget drones.
This would make for a great fpv drone under $50 with the addition of elrs ($12) and the eachine TX06 ($11) if there is the ability to solder those to the board.
😀Probably OK for close by flying, get it to any distance and it might wander off never to return, I've had 3 sub £50 do this, only affordable drone that does not do this (well used to be affordable, getting rarer now) is the Bugs Series, Bugs 3,3mini , 2 and Bugs 6. Bugs are reliable.
I want for free please tomorrow 😢
few hour of you video out and price have raised lolll.... those are scam hahaha
I’m told the $21 US price is to remain until sometime in February
I bought this one to play with my 3 yos boy. He was so excited watching it fly around and trying to push it forward backward.
However on our third flight, I tried to raise its altitude to about 10 meters. The boy was super excited untill a gust of wind blew it away. I tried every way I could to bring it down but it was carried away and gone for good.
😅
Its remote controller is a decent one. It felt a lot better in hands than E88 pro's.
That is too bad. In wind it has to be in speed 3 for control against wind.
lol so true. Someone will buy this thinking it will be comparable to the DJI Mini 4 Pro for a fraction of the price lol 😂
Guaranteed!
Backyard not the best place for a correct flip. Meaning on a fast foward motion that requires space, altitude & cojones lol Its a easy maneuver once you get timing right WHILE on fast foward . Its aking to a wingover roll on a fixed wing . Capi, got a Winner , brushless , good looking @ crazy prices.
For the price, I can see myself having this sitting around for when I want to fly with a friend that doesn't have their own FPV setup
Is the beard gone? Thanks for supporting the University of Michigan by wearing that Maize and Blue jacket!
Ha Ha, You're Welcome! The answer to your question can be found in the last minute of this video: ua-cam.com/video/c95tBIClzDg/v-deo.htmlsi=vrQ9npmrpFAI4qA9
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 thanks Steve you made me LOL
Kinda crazy that for $21 you can get an actually decent flying brushless (!!) quadcopter with camera.
Mi control no se vincula con el dron
Does this drone can fly with insta360 Go?) 😂
Yes
Just blown away by the wind, luckily manage to land on a roof. Luckily got foldable stairs to take back the drone. But i enjoyed haha.
That's a decent drone for 21 usd brushless motors. That's gonna be enjoyable for beginners .
How far that drone can fly(distance/range)
Please watch the video. The flight distance is mentioned.
Thanks for the review. Ordered it off your link. I Look forward to zooming it around
Great! Have fun zooming around
It's impressive a functioning drone for $21. I wouldn't buy it, but I'm impressed.
Bhai Indian currency
It's amazing price for a drone with brushless motors, just unbelievable.
My camera on my potensic atom looks better than that one, nice video.
The Potensic Atom has a super good camera!
Hey would you be able to do a look at more Holystone drones? Thanks in advance captain 😁.
That seems a little pricey,😂
Excellent tutorial video. Thank you Captain Steve.
Glad you enjoyed it
Start off with a Vivitar Skyview or phx these r a waste of cash 💸
Is the vivitar $21 with brushless motors?
How do you calibrate the damn thing?
It has the tendency to strafe to the right!!
Remember that button I pushed in the vid to calibrate. Also this is not a GPS drone so it will drift indoors due to wind off the walls and insufficient bright light on the floor. Outdoors it will drift with the wind. These drones are simple to operate for kids as young people have excellent hand/eye coordination. Practice a bit and you’ll quickly have the hand/eye coordination to fly and not continuously crash.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 thanks for the reply.I fly it in-doors in a very bright light.In most cases when it drifts to the right, if i turn the right stick full to the left it only slows a bit the drifting to the nearest wall!
Which one is better? This one or the S99 Max?
For the low prices, they are both value for money
very glad 2 see drone's like that... with such Products it's easy 2 bring more Ppl into this Hobby... Thanks a lot😊
Nice vidio😊😊😊😊😊😊❤❤❤❤❤❤
I'm gonna get this one just for the extra flight practice because it seems indestructible 😆.
I do have a question though. Is there anything out there from Banggood or anywhere else that has these same features but with GPS that still doesn't break the bank.
Thanks Steve. I love watching the reasonably priced videos. I watch them all but know I can't drop 4 to 500 bucks right now.
Thanks a lot.
Unfortunately nothing comes to mind at the moment that is worth its value. You’d have to jump up to at least $200 US to be somewhat happy (like the Faith Mini (first version) at 2.7k resolution). ua-cam.com/video/rUF73LxVarc/v-deo.htmlsi=yuyne-LtLlwnHttf
If you want something with these features, and I mean exactly these features, with GPS, you can get an L900. They tend to be the cheapest GPS drones and I have found that the GPS function is pretty solid on mine. Shows on the map, RTH works, but everything else is the same level of... meh... as this. The flight time is short, the camera is terrible, the camera connection range is poor, no SD card slot. The Rx Drone app might even be worse than this one, but I haven't found a $100ish CAD GPS drone that doesn't use Rx Drone. As Steve said though, it really isn't worth the extra money as it provides no real camera drone capability so it's only really a trainer and you might as well just buy this one, learn on it and get a real drone afterwards. I have yet to see a mid range drone that serves any purpose bridging the gap between a drone like this/a mini indoor drone like the HS210 for learning and a real drone like the Fimi/CFly/Potensic or used DJI Mini.
@@overkill1340 I looked up the L900 and came up with about 60 with that model number. Some had GPS and and some didn't. Most were pretty reasonable on prices. All under 100.00.
Do you have a URL so I can be sure I'm looking at the same model you are referring me to.
And thanks for the help.
@@TerryWhite001
Doesn't look like I can post URLs. I've only ever seen one drone named the L900 and my google searches only show the two versions on all listings. Bangood only shows two and the SE is wildly overpriced for the obstacle avoidance. AliExpress will give you a few dozen, but they are all clearly the same.
Where's the beard?
E88 from Brushed to Brushless and now with sensor
I just bought it today, and when i tried to calibrate the drone lights keep blinking. What to do?
blinking lights means:
- Low Battery; or
- You have not connected your remote or phone (which means you are doing something wrong).
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 fully charged the battery, and the remote connects to the drone, but it keeps blinking and one key take off is working n is very difficult to control. Could this mean I received a defective product?
@@Dhandestinyif it blinks while you fly it normally means low battery
finally, I’m early to at least one UA-cam video
Heya Steve, gr8 review, i bought a couple of them, of each color, gr8 drones for my collection, hahahahaha. Luckily Winter is over now and we can start flying without rain a il bit herein Oregon, USA. Really enjoy your channel, as they say, Keep on Keepin on. Greetings from Oregon , USA.
Thanks! And Thank God Spring is here!
I past this stage in terms drones, but its for the price its pretty decent. I wonder how much this $22-$25 drone would have cost 5-10 years ago. I watched the video because it was fun
elacking to watch.
A drone like this in the year 2016 would have been over $250
I guess I missed the discount code? Great videos.
Hi Steve, I still have stickers!!! Lololol, Your a good teacher. I'm gonna get that drone. Looked really cool for the money. 21$ US is awesome. Stay warm. Animal
Enjoy!
what happened to you gladiator ?
The blue car is my wife’s care
Sir, r u gonna review the l900 pro se?
drone looks great especially for the price but how loud does it get? hopefully its not very loud cant quite find correct specs for its motors size
You should be able to hear the prop sound in the video. It is not loud if outdoors… indoors the sound will seem loud.
I have the e88 drone brushed motor not bad drone fun to fly
Fun video ! 😃
Good practice drone !
It sure is!
Thanks for another great video!
My pleasure!
is it the same as e88 pro?
No... It's not
Thanks for the video. Do you know what the protocol used? Wondering if my edge open tx with 4 in 1 would work as controller? Tnx
I have no idea what type of receiver is inside, but my guess is it would be something extremely low cost
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 Thanks for the feedback...
Congratulations on the 300k!
Well done Captain!!!; equally as important, kudos to you for taking the time to review these very inexpensive Drones!; now, I did notice something on your review which has me extremely concerned!; I believe I saw a glimpse of Mr Owly however it looked like he is missing his right ear !!!!; now if this is the case, I do have a spare (believe it or not!!) and happy to post !!!; in all seriousness, great to see these types of reviews which will no doubt help prospective Drone newbies with making a decision regards the first steps to flying !
Mr Owly is hibernating for the winter under a snow bank
Well, I just hope the "Snow Bank" gives him a credit for his missing ear !!!!@@CAPTAINDRONE798
Good afternoon. Great video nice drone
great review steve. interesting drone.
Just got mine! Coming in feb cant wait
Great! I’m certain you’ll enjoy it.
Really nice set up
Neat learner drone
hey yo capt drone I got my stickers! thank you sir! planning to put it on my nitro rc trucks. and mavic mini (the first mini)
Excellent! Glad they arrived.
day 3 asking captain drone for free fvp drone with long range and long flight time i hope you see me and im 12 years old :) i cant buy a drone your only my hope thanks!😊
24 seconds after posting the video, and I am not first~!
I am 😈
You should have flown it way higher while having the camera pointed lower to show what kind of aerial photography it can do. For inspecting more than just a small part of your roof at once, taking an interesting albeit low-res image of the neighborhood for example.
There's little point flying the drone to just ten meters, especially with that camera FoV ! Don't treat it just as a toy, try give it a real test of its capability.
Ha ha… for $21 I think I put in more effort into this video than this budget drone deserves. I’ll leave it up to the thousands who will buy this for pure enjoyment to film their places of interest.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 Yea well that's my whole point, you put plenty of work to this video so the core part of showing the limits of the drone while providing its own footage should never be left out. Leave any other part out in place of it if needed. Providing the raw data is the most important part in drone reviews, even if lower effort, because it provides the viewers capability to determine things about the device the reviewer might not even have understood or appreciated themselves.
Saying "go buy it and test it yourself" negates the whole point of your channel so I'll take it as just a brain fart. I do not mean ill will, I bought a Fimi X8 based partially on your reviews which provided the relevant footage while also going through the features not as descriptions but as demonstrations.
I get that filming outside during the winter pressures you to try to compensate for lack of demos with other content, but I'd think if you to tested the limits immediately before doing anything else or running low on battery would be better appreciated instead of trying to fit in larger number of lower-value anecdotes. Now this review kind of leaves me seeking for any other review with 1/10 the work put in to it to just see the actual capabilities.
Yes proly
Good drone if you want a piece of junk. The frame rate looked low too.
Oh God, I was expecting someone out there to post a such silly comment and out of the hundreds of comments you won the prize. Everyone knows the limitations of this drone but there is nothing else on the market as good for $21 US. This is the drone you buy to teach yourself how to fly indoors/outdoors BEFORE you buy the $1000 DJI drone. How did you miss that?????
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 how did I miss that? I'll tell you how. In June of 2017 I bought my first drone. It was a mavic pro. I didn't need a junky drone to learn on. I hate to break it to you Steve, but drones are EXTREMELY easy to fly. You pull two sticks down to start the motors. Then you push up on the left stick to go up. It's that simple. Turning, and moving forward, backward, and to the side, are just as easy. How is flying a mavic camera drone hard?
@@shb7772000if Yes for some, flying a drone requires no use of brain cells which is why DJI designs all their drones for beginners (first time pilots). For others however, it is not only a challenge to fly a drone but also out of reach financially in most countries, hence the reason the NON DJI drones at budget prices are even more popular internationally then DJI drones themselves.
Hi captain drone do you mind sending a Fpv drone to me since my parents won’t give it to me so I’m asking you for help
"...anyone who has more than one brain cell doesn't use bottom camera..." LOL ! :-)))
...and with refined humor it is explained!
Overall, in this video we forget that we are in front of a "salesperson" and it seems like we are in front of a Professor !
Can I make a suggestion...? Thinking so, here goes: the Captain could remove one of those brushless motors and disassemble it. Using the different metals required €30 does not pay for just one engine. Have the Chinese already invented new composite materials? ...that replace metal?-))
-Disassemble 1 and then make a video...educational!
Best regards, thank you
I think I’d be more creative and stencil DJI on the motor and then it will sell in the millions! 😂
In my experience, these non GPS drones that rely on a magnetic compass sensor maintain mag compass calibration for the first 10 seconds or until you've yawed around more than 3 rotations. What that means is that on almost every occasion the Return-to-Home button will merely activate the Fly-to-Hell feature and "way point" flight will send it on a magical mystery tour that ends in somebody's face.😅 It's a joke. Don't even imagine that this drone isn't going to fly away from you first chance it gets. The 1S battery = low power = low wind resistance = breeze make go bye-bye.
It's still a good deal for $21 but the automatic features are pure pie-in-the-sky.
There is no magnetic compass. You are thinking of drones much more costly than $21
@@CAPTAINDRONE798
Ok, that's even worse. It's relying on the 6-axis gyro to keep track of it's orientation then. According to Bangood, it has low-battery RTH. That's not gonna happen! Test it. Test it after giving it plenty of yaw-spins.
@@7MPhonemicEnglishit has low battery notification for sure, but for $21 it has no idea where home is.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798
So what do you think the repercussions for Banggood should be for putting this in the Specifications:
"Draw a flight path on the screen, the drone will fly autonomously along the specified path. - Way-point Flight: Plan your flying route by drawing the dots on the built-in map on the App, recording beautiful scenery along the route. - Point of Interest: Select a building or location and click it on the map of App. The drone could continue to fly clockwise around this specific building or location, presenting a comprehensive image. - Return to Home: It will always returns automatically whenever Battery is low, Signal is lost or You press one key return. - 2.4GHz anti-interference technology. - 4 channels for ascent, descent, forward, backward, left flight, right flight and 360°roll. - Six-axis gyroscope, smoother flight and more convenient control."
For $21- not bad.
