Something funky is going on with the lens distortion. I can't tell what it is but it feels weirder than superview. Kinda looks like 360 footage, maybe it's the wider angle
I'm super excited about the idea of getting back down under 650 grams like when I flew a Session. So much of the performance and durability of the quad follows the size of the camera. A bigger camera means you need to carry more battery. Carrying a bigger camera and battery means you have more mass. More mass means more momentum. More momentum means you need more carbon. More carbon means more weight again. I know you can't speak for the durability of the camera yet, but the overall durability of a quad that is 100 grams lighter again will be awesome. But I am disappointed to say that I haven't had a real quad with a GoPro in the air since March. I figure I won't be upgrading/sidegrading until I have to file a claim on a smashed GoPro, and at this rate I am bummed out to say that it will probably take quite a while! :(
@ok go I'm not sure how you know who provides my camera insurance, but I always order my new camera as soon I break the previous one. I don't wait for the check (or Amazon gift card?!) from the insurance company to show up! :)
Drew. Put a ring on that woman already. She's wonderful! Oh, and this camera looks WAY better than I originally thought it would. It's a little spendy without knowing how resilient it is to taking hard hits, but I'm excited to see how you turn this one in to dust at some point. I shall learn through your pain. Thank you my friend!
I haven't scrolled through all the comments, so maybe someone said this: you don't need a computer to offload the internal memory clips. You can just move the internal memory clips to the sd card in the battery module after attaching. So, while the camera battery is recharging do the transfer too. Leave the computer at home. The sd card can be 256 GB's. That feature was available day one. The battery module with sd card slot is included , it's not an add-on.
OK, so I (Camera Butter) thinking of making some accessories for this camera. What do you think is needed most? ND filters? lens protector? Replacement lens kit?
Crazy good backwards flying. Surprised you didn't crash more often. At least with your skills the stabilization is very good. (Much worse in the dark though).
They could just put 20 grams more of internal battery and we would be all so happy. I don't need a color screen in the back, put it on a external module, I need an SD card slot. Come on DJI you are always giving me almost what I want.
@@PortalFPV The doors can break, the o-rings get damaged or lost and there is no easy way to repace either. DJI could do this and it would propably be ok but I still think the connector is the better solution.
i swear i thought something went wrong with my subscription when i realised i haven't seen any of your videos recently, but im still subscribed. RUclips still doesn't understand the meaning of "subscribe"
same with the RR channel, i've stayed subscribed but i had to manually search to find new videos. and no, i am not turning notifications on, bc i don't want to be pinged, i just want to see more in my recommendations
Jeez Drib have gotten so dope on the sticks!!... haven't watch a flight vid in a while cause haven't been flying but still that first line had me stunned. Don't remember em being that smooth
"SD-card absence." only on the main module , cause the other module have SD , so no problem there, i can fly my protek 35 with 1500mah 6s with dji action 2 , 9 minutes cinematic , with my gopro hero 9 cinematic 4 minutes , so time to say goodbye to gopro, after 10 editions, its all the same thing , same technicals problems, freezing, tak out the battery, lose footage , hero 10 is the same shit, so gopro NO.
@@jstoneracing very slowly though, but yeah... better than nothing. Hopefully they find a way to speed that up, though I suspect it's a hardware limitation
The goat of flow can still fly. The price is what will define this one for me. Couple of runcam orange is 200. Rather an SD card plus get some nd filters an a little editing can go a long way in this hobby. Great review look forward for updates....
@@FlyingPenguinDrones yes that is true but can't afford to have 3 go pros. I can afford 3 runcams though. I'll take a little extra editing. Good insight.
Also- your flying is insane in this. Didn’t really notice until halfway through but damn bro. Still a neck-and-neck race between you and Bubby on who my favorite pilot is lol. I think it’ll always be a tie though tbh
Have you tried plugging the camera into your phone and dumping to your phone? Still pretty limited storage for most people, but at least a secondary storage option people would have with them.
7:17 You could get a USB-C to C or Lightning to USB-C cord and transfer the video to your phone. Bonus points if you just keep your camera SD card in your phone and can just pop it out. I keep a cable in my bag anyway so I can use Betaflight in the field without a laptop, and could just pop one of my other camera SD cards in.
@@PortalFPV OH, I knew that iOS for iPad couldn't use external drives til recently (or still not?) but I never considered iPhone doesn't allow it either. I was thinking there were lightning USB drives even.
1. God I miss flying. 2. Love the form factor. 3. The trees look like their being flattened. Kind of like Real steady with the smoothness up a little too high. (not a deal breaker, just an observation) 4. (Most important) Nice flying as always.
Definitely not for beginners fpv pilots but in the right hands this looks fantastic. I love the idea of not having to do any post processing but we all know all the magic happens in post. If you can't tweak it, like you can with other cameras, it might not be usable at the pro level.
I still say the Hero 8 is the best overall for weight/quality. Using a ND filter and recording in flat, color grading, and stabilizing with Gyroflow in post you can really get great results with a hero 8 and can quickly swap batteries and SD cards all day long and don't have the weight and overheating problems of the newer cameras.
Could you make a review for caddx peanut on freestyle? There is no videos on RUclips testing it in extreme conditions like freestyle. Congratulations for your channel!
Yo Drew, where can I get my hands on that action 2 mount you used for the Skyliner? I need one for my Skyliner. Not a whole lot of mounts available for this camera yet. But Damn! This camera has made me almost a good pilot. Soooo much better performance with a 55g camera. Another bonus is the wind noise cancelation of this camera, which is incredible imho.
Well first of all, we need to rally Botgrinder to get a magnetic chin implant to mount this thing. Second, I think the hero quality is better. But last, I still love watching your vlogs and flying dude. Keep up the good work, and I'd love to hear your thoughts on why you went back to the ix12. I recently got the tango II, and still struggling to not go back.
Hoping this thing is the ticket 🎟!
Looks good for shoots as long as youre not flying too much!
How's the altitude J lol
@mr.steele you still feel the same after Nepal? I see alot of go pro 10
I’m a huge fan of your page. I’m buying the action 2 as my first action cam Friday. Thanks for inspiring me. That’s all bro.
The trippy to Matty was 🔥 drib flow in full effect here!!
Something funky is going on with the lens distortion. I can't tell what it is but it feels weirder than superview. Kinda looks like 360 footage, maybe it's the wider angle
Yeah this footage did that camera no favors haha.
Yes, this camera has like 10° more field of view than GoPro. Too much IMO. Makes it a little nauseating
Yeah it's crazy wide. I'd wouldn't run the super wide on this. But guess it's there if you need it
Smooth! Makes me dream more of an FPV with the Action 2

Thank you and all the other youtuber drone pilots for giving me a hobby . I dont fly anymore but I still enjoy the shows. Thanks Drew
A storage dump module seems like a good idea for sure. Maybe could wire charging into the quad battery...
Storage dump was fixed on day one and transfers straight to second module. Companies have already teased USB constant charging too
@@CoppertopFPV Yooo in 2.7k/30, how long does the cam last?
I have been out of flying for three years of so, haven't watched you in the same amount of time but holy cow you've become insane in the air!!
Damn, that flow!!! Image quality and stabilization looks really good tbh.👌
DUDE!!!! THIS IS FIRE! my fav fpv pilot getting into motovlogging as well. The most perfect channel direction ❤
I thought my Hero 5 session was perfect. Glad to see there's finally a better camera with the same footprint.
Ur fpv skills are insane
Not a big Drib fan, but he sure can fly and I respect that for sure and why I am here.
Ahhhh the flow is back, nice video Drew.
Awesome footage. Do you still fly with the action 2? Now in 2024, there is 128 GB of internal storage. What do you think?
OK, so I (Camera Butter) thinking of making some accessories for this camera. What do you think is needed most? ND filters? lens protector? Replacement lens kit?
Love your products. Great customer service too.
@@jakeh3144 Thank you SO much for the kind words ! :) :)
ND filters and Lens protector for sure.
How about an adaptor to connect an external power source?
@@sebastiannix5033 That's a great idea.

Making a magnetic connector waterproof and robust is just a lot easier than making an SD card slot waterproof and robust. I don't blame DJI.
@@Gosuminer ???? a door with an o-ring is hard to do. weird
@@PortalFPV The doors can break, the o-rings get damaged or lost and there is no easy way to repace either. DJI could do this and it would propably be ok but I still think the connector is the better solution.
your flying still keeps getting better, trippy spins in lines, Nice! 👊🙃🤙
Your flow is truly amazing. You are inspiration for me getting into FPV!
Whatever the action 2 having the issues, your flying is amazing 🤩🤩
The talk bit starting at 7:00 almost made me sick with the weird Rocksteady glitches. Looks awesome in flight!
Dude, some killer flying..
Omg a vlog. I couldn't even comprehend what I was watching at first I was so shocked. 😍
Wish I could hit the like button 5x for this video. Love the throw back vlog feel! Miss these videos from you
Totally agree
i swear i thought something went wrong with my subscription when i realised i haven't seen any of your videos recently, but im still subscribed. RUclips still doesn't understand the meaning of "subscribe"

and holy shit, your freestyle is so cool, i can't believe I didn't see more
The vlog and the edit was so good bro
You can tell the smoothness is all you man! The stab would be tripping. Solid work dude
Very nice mr le drib..... Crazy Freestyler... Salut...
Awesome flying!!! And video also!!!
Good to see you getting some solid new flight footy around RR work load!
Jeez Drib have gotten so dope on the sticks!!... haven't watch a flight vid in a while cause haven't been flying but still that first line had me stunned. Don't remember em being that smooth
Your flow amazes me every time 🙌😎
That first line was sickkkk
The beginning flow of that flight sequence was awesome.
Amazing flying
You guys are awesome !!! Look so happy together ! Also I want one of those cameras lol! Missing Florida !!!
I really hope gopro brings back the session to compete with this. Then we'll see the real improvements of this form factor
Gopro been using the same 1/2.5" sensor on all their cameras. This has 1/1.7" sensor, gopro cant compete with it.
Great flying, Drew! Awesome to have Ashley there, too. Cheers from Columbus Ohio!
The Le Driby spins 😎💪
I think they did pretty big mistake with SD-card absence.
After recent DJ Action 2 announce I just bought GoPro 10 :)
"SD-card absence." only on the main module , cause the other module have SD , so no problem there, i can fly my protek 35 with 1500mah 6s with dji action 2 , 9 minutes cinematic , with my gopro hero 9 cinematic 4 minutes , so time to say goodbye to gopro, after 10 editions, its all the same thing , same technicals problems, freezing, tak out the battery, lose footage , hero 10 is the same shit, so gopro NO.
Same for me too
It's fixed now, drops the footage to the main body when you snap them together.

Only problem with Runcams is that their color grading sucks, so fixing that in post is a lot of extra work each time.
@@FlyingPenguinDrones yes that is true but can't afford to have 3 go pros. I can afford 3 runcams though. I'll take a little extra editing. Good insight.
Haven't seen an edit in a while. Really liking the trippy flow thing you're doing. Looks awesome!
You do lof of trippy spin there and i love it
Drew, that first flight was sick man! Your drone skillz are definitely fun to watch. Flow is the way to go! 🤞🔥🎉🙌

So close to 100K, LFG!!!
Have you tried plugging the camera into your phone and dumping to your phone? Still pretty limited storage for most people, but at least a secondary storage option people would have with them.
I can’t figure out the fisheye 🤔 is it pushing the curve to the centre when stabilised? Great video 👍
have you stabilized in post ?? looks great !
I have one question if you still could get a GOPRO hero session 5 witch would you choose ?
whole lotta vibes going on the scooters @10:00
You can transfer the data from the camera to the atachment right? its slow.. but you dont need a pc. ANd that is already there
7:17 You could get a USB-C to C or Lightning to USB-C cord and transfer the video to your phone. Bonus points if you just keep your camera SD card in your phone and can just pop it out. I keep a cable in my bag anyway so I can use Betaflight in the field without a laptop, and could just pop one of my other camera SD cards in.
you could. but I think drew is an apple user, so OTG is out
@@PortalFPV OH, I knew that iOS for iPad couldn't use external drives til recently (or still not?) but I never considered iPhone doesn't allow it either. I was thinking there were lightning USB drives even.
4:09 this transition is insane
Thanks for the review that was helpful, great flying too!
Dang those tricks are insane
When I grow up, I want to fly just like you 😯💪💪💪💪💪💪
Still want to fly whenever I watch your flying. Good job man. Bittersweet to watch, but good job.
Hey, the camera can be connected via the phone via an OTG cable, and if the phone has a capacious SD card, then it becomes much more convenient
Apple users don't get that benefit thou. Just one of over a hundred reasons to not go with that fruit 😂
Is this really true?
The footage looks amazing. Love how compact this action camera is. Great for fpv drones.
3:13 is the part where my brain stopped functioning.
1. God I miss flying.
2. Love the form factor.
3. The trees look like their being flattened. Kind of like Real steady with the smoothness up a little too high. (not a deal breaker, just an observation)
4. (Most important) Nice flying as always.

can't you connect the cam to the DJI Mimo app and download the data wireless? Worked on the DJI Action 1
as always nicely done,what props are u using on this quad.thanx

I noticed that the shadows are dark. I'm guessing the dynamic range is not great or the edit have more contrast.
The lines were smooth, as always, Drew. It would be great to hear how the motors sound in the recording... ;-)
I always like the music Drew mixes in though, and you know when he's about to crash, you'll get some motor sound in advance :-D
4:22
Honestly quad audio from anything but a session is terrible. Sounds great on a hero session 5 though
its a great little camera, love mine, its here to stay! thanks drib. ps: your flying is literally what got me into fpv thanks dude.
Looks primising. Can you set the shutter speed for cinematic footage?
Insane drew!
Have you experienced a sorta of hiccup when you do a fast roll?
I wonder when or if there will be round ND and Lens Protection around. Both are kinda essential.
Love this. Thanks so much for sharing. I just have a mav pro the first one. Would like to see what it looks like on top of my mav. God bless.
Nice review! Can’t wait to try one out 🤙🏼
Crazy skills flying.. but looks great. On the bike a little blurry.. vibration maybe?
Love to see those inverted split s. I have been working on those recently
Unreal freestyle man👌Also appreciated the review!
Always love the vlogs, Drew! 👍👍❤️❤️
Can we manipulate the stabilization or is it all preset?
I like it. Very different.

Good stuff Drew, as always!
Thanks Drew.👍
So the Firmware that moves the onboard files to the sd card was out 2 days before you released this video :)
Always enjoy your content
So a cam review ends up being a flight clip I can study for the next 5 years.
*props in the shot
It's freestyle, props in shot is welcome.
@@blazer5979 I get that. But it’s a camera demo, so I thought to mention. And the props are only visible against backlit subject.
@@AerRider a camera demo for freestyle
QUESTION::: How come props comes into view sometimes? flex in mount?
Você toca demais … Ninguém tem uma sequência, tão natural quanto vc …. 👏👏👏👏
May be a dumb question but how do you find your background music?
Could try a OTG cable and transfer the files to your phone if you have an Android. Not sure if it would work or not though
You don’t need a computer. Just an SD card.
A magnetic attachment so you can wire the cam to the lipo for extra juice is surely needed.
youre colorgrade is amazing, are you using any lut? wich one?
