The Q500 4K is a very under rated camera drone. I highly recommend an after market balance charger for the batteries though. This camera is the best. There are a lot of new drones on the scene now, but this is still an awesome drone. So if anyone is looking at buying a great camera drone for under 600, this is it.. I have had mine for over 1 1/2 years and enjoy it tremendously. I considered buying the Xiaomi Mi Drone 4K but when I compared what I already have to the Mi, it was a no brainier.. I stayed with the Q500 4K. General
Good vid... I’ve had a DJI phantom standard edition for quite some time just bought the yuneec typhoon h plus only flown six times for 400 bucks today excited as hell about to start making some videos with it
Yes, it does ... Noway I could have gotten that far in an urban environment. Crazy how I was so stoked about a mile with this flying bus ... I did a 10 mile round trip with the P4P just the other day.
so did you have video on your transmitter screen the whole time? or did it cut out or get weird as you got further out? still love flying my q500, i might need to do some distance flying soon! any other tips you have for this? i assume the q500 isnt a "wifi" control like dji stuff? or is it? it seems like having a dedicated transmitter with built in screen - it might have better overall connection more like an actual RC airplane?
I bought my Q500 4K as a camera drone not a long distance bird, it is in sight all the times ,just another mobil tripod for taking pictures,, walk behind it a lot taking pictures in the forest, and it works good for selfies of big groups..If I wanted long range fast bird I would be buying some other drone.......This was designed to be a slow steady camera bird.......
Cool ... Yeah, each for their own ... I bought mine to fly, imagery is secondary. I am just glad I was able to sell it to someone. I did kinda feel bad for putting that thing off on to someone else, though.
the lack of building and trees aided you to get that distance. I have the Q500+ and after I get 1200 feet my video signal dies. I still have control over the drone, just no video signal. Nonetheless, congrats on a great flight!
Country....you must have a supercharger in dat ting! Mine's only good to 2,000 feet befors I lose just about everything. Hey, that intro music....I got a headache. What do you use for editing 4k? Thanks!
I envy ya bro...Id have to drive for a couple hours to get flat farm land like this. In DFW (Dallas TX area). Is what it is. Really enjoyed your vid...thanks oh Yuneec Q500 4K brother. Keep her in the wind !!
I live in Vermont. You just don't find open space with no trees here. I have several DJI,s but the yuneec,s are a lot more impressive to see in the air. Decent vid.
Yes ... If you are thinking of buying one, I would recommend against it. The drone in this video needs alot of work. sold it to someone awhile back and felt bad about taking their money, as the Q500-4K is junk. Constantly breaking down, falling out of the sky and it felt like I was flying a school bus. In this video, I was happy to hit a mile with it ... Just the other day, I took my Phantom 4 Pro out 5 miles with no issues.
The remote has a Return Home function. The home being to controller. The drone and controller have built in GPS. So when you hit the return home button the Drone comes to the Remote. It flies a straight path directly to the remote. If the drone is under 33 feet the drone will rise to 33 feet to return home. If above 33 feet the drone will maintain it's height and return home.
Yes ... If you lose the drone due to range, battery on the remote or simply turn the remote off ... it will return to its take off point and land. If you don't have a Q500, I wouldn't ever recommend getting one ... if you do ... sorry! Thanks for stopping by ... Actually, the more I think about it .. I am not sure what it does ... I know it has some safety things built into it ... I believe all of what I said is true ... It's been so long ago. I hardly mess with consumer grade drones anymore.
@@countryboydrones4098 are you sure on this? Just ordered one should be here in 5 days. But I thought this drone did its "follow me" etc by the remote it doesn't follow You but it follows the remote, so if u walked 50 yards out and hit return it should come to where the remote is ( which should be your hands) Turning off remote makes me wonder how it will find remote to return to?
Yeah, That drone is long gone ... I am flying a Phantom 4 Pro and a Phantom 4 Pro Plus Obsidian now. The drone in this vide is like flying a bus compared to the P4P
Probably a good idea ... If ya couldn't make it past the audio, you probably wouldn't have made it anywhere else in my videos ... I appreciate the comment though ... needed a good chuckle
Lolol my Autel Evo gives me 3 miles in one direction EASILY. In a residential area too w lots of interference. Flies about .5 miles further than my Mavic Pro. Y'all be sleeping on Autel.
Yeah ... that was around 3 to 5 years ago ... I get out about 8 to 10 miles with my DJI stuff ... But, I haven't messed with any DJI stuff in awhile ... I build all my own stuff now. Thanks for watching!
DON'T! As you can see, I was stoked about hitting a mile. A mile is nothing! I can fly 6 times further with a Phantom 4 Pro. The Yuneec products need alot of kinks worked out in them. I wouldn't recommend spending any money on a Yuneec product. I got this one cheap and still regret spending the money. I have a Phantom 4 Pro with 3 batteries and a range extender, For Sale if your interested.
That's right ... Yuneec has a cool look to their drones, but the systems just aren't ready for the average consumer. DJI is a great system with horrible customer support and Autel is a nice system with great customer support. DJI is probably going to have the more advanced systems tho.
Country Boy Drones I've had my mavic in for repair before and DJI customer service was first class. Super fast turn around and I got a brand new replacement, not a refurbished one.

Love my q500 4k. Never had it out this far but nice to know it can do it
Interesting vid. I just picked up a Q500 but haven't flown it yet. Can't wait!
Good vid... I’ve had a DJI phantom standard edition for quite some time just bought the yuneec typhoon h plus only flown six times for 400 bucks today excited as hell about to start making some videos with it
Makes a difference when you are on flat land with very few trees to interfere with the signal....
Yes, it does ... Noway I could have gotten that far in an urban environment. Crazy how I was so stoked about a mile with this flying bus ... I did a 10 mile round trip with the P4P just the other day.

I had done that at an open field as well. Did the same thing you did. But closer to the city I got, the more trouble I had getting the same distance.
Found your channel cruising through drones . Damn nice flight and footage ! 67 subs ? No brother , I hit the like and subbed you at 68 ! 👍👍
Thank you ... Much appreciated, 68 ... Alot more stuff to come, as it has been a long winter, with many builds and flights ... Here it comes!
Nice vid. Mine arrives tomorrow......Affordability wins out for me.... $$ in the pocket beats out 6 miles to nowhere.
Nice flight!
Stock? I've been flying 500s for 8 years. I lose video at 1,200 feet. A mile? Stock?
Seriously? I put the itelite DBS Range Extender on my Q and get 800' on a good day. I'm in Kansas. At what distance did you loose video?
I never lost video
That's what I'm trying to figure out
Country....you must have a supercharger in dat ting! Mine's only good to 2,000 feet befors I lose just about everything. Hey, that intro music....I got a headache. What do you use for editing 4k? Thanks!
Had to switch accounts ... No ... it was a stock antenna setup ... Thank God I was able to sell that to some one ... Hated everything about that bus

If you could not see it and had no visual then how did it come back? Did you just hit the return home button?
The remote has a screen built into it, that shows you everything the drone sees.
Can the drone transmit a visual signal from the distance you travelled?
Yes ... If you are thinking of buying one, I would recommend against it. The drone in this video needs alot of work. sold it to someone awhile back and felt bad about taking their money, as the Q500-4K is junk.

@@XGraphixWebsites 4 years....still going.....
I bought one of these, the motors become loose just to let you know 🤔 Got a Dji P3 Advanced too, the yuneec is not even in the same ball game.
When you lose telemetry, it'll still return on the GPS....Right? Great job!
Yes ... If you lose the drone due to range, battery on the remote or simply turn the remote off ... it will return to its take off point and land.

Country Boy Drones so what do you fly Country Boy?😂 I love my Mavic Pro
Nice video but the music is way too high to the piint i couldn't hear half of what you were saying
Lol @ 6 minutes looks like someone had fun doing doughnuts 🍩 lol get drunk and have fun out there and no worries lol beautiful country
Do you mean a mile away from you or just that you covered that distance?
A mile from me ... thanks for watching
Country Boy Drones Hi, how do you know whether you have enough battery power to return home?
very nice
Yeah, That drone is long gone ... I am flying a Phantom 4 Pro and a Phantom 4 Pro Plus Obsidian now. The drone in this vide is like flying a bus compared to the P4P
Sorry, had to bail due to trash talk music.
Probably a good idea ... If ya couldn't make it past the audio, you probably wouldn't have made it anywhere else in my videos ... I appreciate the comment though ... needed a good chuckle
Do you still have this drone?
No, got rid of it a couple years ago
I still have it two of them
Put your money on DJI, the mini goes 3 miles.
Overall, great 👍 video.
you should change your title Lol good job to 5286 not 5826
Watch out for crop dusters.....

Quit lieing, it doesn’t out fly the Mavic Pro
I got 3 evos... 1 evo 2 and 2 evo 2 pros
i MAY GET ONE
DON'T! As you can see, I was stoked about hitting a mile. A mile is nothing! I can fly 6 times further with a Phantom 4 Pro. The Yuneec products need alot of kinks worked out in them.

Don't they are junk. I have a Typhoon H (it's in the shop AGAIN and the Q500 4K. Both are bad compared to DJI or Autel.
That's right ... Yuneec has a cool look to their drones, but the systems just aren't ready for the average consumer. DJI is a great system with horrible customer support and Autel is a nice system with great customer support. DJI is probably going to have the more advanced systems tho.

Pushed your battery to the limit .....
No, the battery was fine ... I pushed the stock signal to the limit though. Thanks for stopping by ... Please subscribe!
Hilarious. Like so many RUclipsrs nowadays, your intro is incredibly loud with almost no volume in the video itself.
yeah ... Whats your channel ... I wanna check it out
Peter Shinn my volume was fine. Loud in the beginning didn’t touch it and heard everything just fine quarter way up
yeahh so funny... spent your time to write this, thats whats funny.
Hehe i easily go over 18.000 feet with my Dji Phantom
Stupid music took from the video didnt finish it
