For hundred dollars or less, Parrot can install a better camera. They need to go ahead and do this so they can compete on a more professional level with the Phantom's video quality. Parrot already has an outstanding base product to work with. Are you listening, Parrot ?
It's much less conspicuous to the casual observer. Look at the camera hanging underneath the Phantom on the gimbal ! Which one looks more like a toy to you ? Which one would you be more intimidated by if it flew past your window ?
Quad Plex well it was 499 for everything plus I got a 50 dollar gift card for frys electronics. So ontop of the drone itself being on sale that was awesome. The drone doesn't have the BEST 4k out of this world quality but the 1080p is still great. It is easy and fun to fly, I usually go about 20mins as I fear any risk of dying battery lol.
brett standley to be honest I wish I knew. I ended up returning it. my friend had the phantom 3 4k with the carrying backpack and sold it to me for 300. I couldn't not buy it from him lol. the p3 is really nice and easy to fly for sure!
The Parrot Bebop 2 is so trash because the video quality and lighting it shoots at is so bad! Plus the Phantom 3 Standard (what I have) is the same price almost but it comes with a controller, better camera, no mess ups with software (cough, parrot bebop), more compact drone, better unboxing experience, an SD card slot (its already packaged with an 8gb SD card), and way more! Just switch to DJI! They make better drones anyways! (Phantom 4, Mavic, Mavic Pro, Matrice, Inspire 1 and Inspire 1 pro just to name a few) have a good day cause you know you can't do a better response! 👍🏼😁
Chicken Neck lmfao I can't do a better response? ok.. I picked up the bebop 2 with the fpv and sky controller 2 for 499 and received a 60 dollar gift card from manufacturer... Did you not read...? like at all lol.. Anyway as for the p3s being more compact, you are on crack. the parrot 2 is nice, but since you don't own one where is your experience coming from. because everything I have seen online really points to it being a nice drone. I only picked up.my ps3 because a buddy was selling one for 300bux with the carrying case and another battery. the ps3 may have better video, but it's pretty limited on what it can do, I am honestly already bored with it.
Love the bebops Flight Planner... you can plan the whole flight out before leaving the house, get to where your going to fly click play and it takes off flies the entire path and returns and lands automatically.
Nice review. It's a little too Phantom weighted. -The Phantoms lack of HDMI is a total no-go for me, you do FPV once you don't want to miss it anymore. Also the Latency is far less with FPV. -The Price of the Phantom is 3x the price of the Bebop 2 -Even with the SkyController, the phantom costs 1.5x as much. Better use that money for FPV Googles a backpack and additional batteries -Considering the price, it is dissappointing that the Phantom looks like a childrens toy. No disrespect, but it is really ugly. -The Bebop allows flying without a controller (using only Smartphone/Tablet) -The Bebop offers Flight Plan for GPS flights -3rd Party Bebop Apps also offer Follow Me and Look at me flight modes Technologically they are both very respectable drones. For quality imaging I'd surely go for the phantom. For fun and racing I'd definitely stick to the Bebop 2
As stated before this review is biased in favor of the Phantom the part of the video which demonstrates this best is the clip from approx 7:25 to 7:39 the Beebop footage is taken in dry conditions ( naturally less contrast) with much more sunlight the ( tree shadows are about the same size as the trees) the Phantom footage is taken after a rain shower ( more contrast) and later in the day which defines colors better you can tell by the shadows of the trees going clear across the road. I do agree with the review that from a photography point of view the the Phantom is better but I the Beebop is not as bad as its made out to be.
Great reviews. I'm a huge fan. You're indeed the most animated and expressive. Your summaries are some of the best.... They just lack structure to make them memorable.
Very good fair review,though of course that's the first edition Bebop 2 with the huge chunky skycontroller ( similar to the controller you got with the Bebop1 ).I bought the Bebop 2 in November 2016 on black Friday ,got a great deal with the price reduced from £599 down to £449.That was the Bebop 2 FPV package which has the smaller playstation gamepad type controller and FPV goggles.I have to admit,i didn't get to fly it until august this year( stayed unopened for 9 months,so good job there wasn't a problem with it).But so far I have had 21 flights and 2 1/2 hours flight time and happy with it.Im not saying its no where near as good as say the DJI Mavic (which costs 3 times as much),but its great fun,easy to fly and I'm happy with how the videos have came out.This was my last video from 4 weeks ago,when I went to watch a natural phenomenon called the severn bore,a type of tidal wave created 40 miles inland on the River Severn in Gloucestershire ,Uk ruclips.net/video/jg48ZetGmC8/видео.html
The Bebop 2 can handle crashes WAY better than the Phantom. I've crashed my Bebop many times, without any real damage to the drone (including a full-speed head-on crash into a wall). A little tiny crash with the Phantom and you'll likely have to order new parts to fix it.
That's because the Phantom is photography drone not meant to be crashed unlike the cheap 50$ "drones". The Bebop is made more for fun than photography so it will obviously be easier to replace parts for it.
NEW SUBSCRIBER- my second of your reviews and you again did a good job- i appreciate the manner in which you communicate the information - professional and practical
Yes you're right but the Phantom 3 4k does not have Lightbridge and that's what he said in the vid. The 4k cam and the lack of Lightbridge are the two things that sets the P3 4k apart from the rest of the Phantom 3 series as it uses "extended WiFi".
Thank you so much for this video! I've wanted to buy a drone for a long time now, and thanks to you I've made my mind up and gonna buy the Bebop 2! Hopefully I'll like it!
I think this vid comparison is 100% spot-on correct regarding the vid quality and capabilities of these two platforms BUT I will tell you that the Bebop is something that almost anyone can fly and the Phantom 3 series just isn't. I own the Phantom 3 4k and other DJI platforms like the NAZA M v2 & LITE and there is a lot of work to be done by DJI to simplify their crafts if they want to compete with easy-to-fly drones like the Bebop.
Great job! Honest review. I own a Phantom 3 Standard. I have been looking at a smaller solution for a stabilized camera platform, but I am not satisfied with the artifacts produced by the Bebop 2. For the Phantom, the photographic capabilities for under 500 are certainly an incredible value. I believe the Standard is using a Panasonic camera. I bought into the Panasonic 4/3 system a few years and am still very satisfied with the performance. I paid more for my 14mp 4/3 Panasonic camera and lens than I did the Phantom Standard. Of course I have lens options with the camera, but to have a great stabilized camera in the air is a plus plus. Subscribed. Thanks for the review!
I really was thinking about getting the bebop 1 but....I decided to save up to the parrot bebop 2 power edition...it just looks pretty decent and a normal controller.
Yes it is! The Parrot Bebop 2 is so trash because the video quality and lighting it shoots at is so bad! Plus the Phantom 3 Standard (what I have) is the same price almost but it comes with a controller, better camera, no mess ups with software (cough, parrot bebop), more compact drone, better unboxing experience, an SD card slot (its already packaged with an 8gb SD card), and way more! Just switch to DJI! They make better drones anyways! (Phantom 4, Mavic, Mavic Pro, Matrice, Inspire 1 and Inspire 1 pro just to name a few) have a good day cause you know you can't do a better response! 👍🏼😁
Chicken Neck why do you assume I'm in favor of the Beebop? I review COAs for UAS use at work and most use the DJI system because it is superior. One is a tool, one is a toy. I have been able to find the Beebop for much less $$ however. So maybe chill before you rant.
Travis Williams id agree with you. i see the beebop as kinda of a mix of types and the phantom as a photography tool. comparing them just cause theyre on price par. one has the camera upgrade and one its just a controller lol.
Uhm. I think i can (Answering Chicken Neck): I'm about to buy a drone. Phantom 3 Standard or Bebop 2 I'm still thinking of choosing the Parrot instead because every DJI can't just fly authonomously without a route pre-traced already with the drone itself (Flight Plan System in Parrot Bebop 2). That would be useful to me in order to reach and inspect areas distant 2-3km from me, or far as much as i cannot directly control the drone anyways. I wish DJI could include moreover the already existing Intelligent Flight Modes to remove all doubt.
YouNoob M.Faza.A.G It's just more fun to fly! And you can use the virtual reality goggles to fly the bebop...so it's almost like you're In the cockpit. The phantom takes better videos tho. It all comes down to preference tbh
This video makes me feel bad. I just got my bebop 2 and flightcontroler 2 , after 20 flights I love it. And my video quality looks good on my devices. The only complaint I have is , it only has 8 gig storage. But other than it’s great. I can fly for 20 mins and at almost 40 mph and get really cool footage of different city’s. And I’ve flown out to a mile and half away several times with no issues.
I purchased the Phantom 3 Standard, and like he said, it undoubtedly is the best drone considering I just got into ariel photography. I want to see him do a comparison with one of the Yuneec drone models though...
great comparison video.. thanks.. I love my P3S...amazing value for money... so confidence inspiring too. would suggest you compare the different ways they both handle intelligent flight operations.. I think the bebop is more fun... and I believe a little more options
With Bebop2 you can easily travel the world and capture. You can even take it on your carry-om bag. With the DJI drones you need another 30 bucks to take it with you on your travelling.
-The Phantoms lack of HDMI is a total no-go for me, you do FPV once you don't want to miss it anymore.

Here in 2018, Got my Bebop for $189.00 refurbished W/ the skycontroller 2 and goggles off ebay....On the 2nd day I crashed onto the roof of a 7 story building while in FVP....I was decending and had the camera set too high and never saw the building below me until it was too late...IT stayed connected although there was a message that said emergency landing,motors stalled...And I even took a picture of What it saw where ever it went down,showing lots of stainless metal,and part of a ladder it appeared...That happened on a Saturday morning,and the the building was closed.On the following Monday I went in and told the maintenance man,who went up on the roof and FOUND the drone wedged between two huge fan units on top the roof where it fell 20' down in between them! Upon inspection the only damage I found was a small crack on top of the battery housing,and a couple small nicks in the front props....That drone sat on that roof the whole weekend in 28-32 degree temperatures and icing and STILL flies great no problems! My DJI phantom 3 standard couldnt even take 1 hard landing and almost the whole gimbal assembly had to be replaced and I'm STILL having troubled with it! The ONLY thing my DJI has on the Bebop is slightly better video quality,and thats IT! My Parrot beats the DJI in EVERY other catagory!
Most people think that spending more money makes the drone better,again I'll tell you the bebop is not a toy.When people have trouble with the bebop is 95 percent operator error,not waiting for the gps to lock before take off,wi if interference adjustment,for less interference etc,I bought 3 bebops,last one I bought came in a package Sky Controller and a bebop together for $ 249.00,try buying a DJI for that brand new,like parrot has going.If I crashed the DJI,like I crashed my bebop forget it,the DJI would be done in.
Very good comparison! I wish I had seen the video before buying a Bebop 2 - quality of the images and videos is simply ridiculous even with perfect light and good weather conditions.
This is a poor comparison,they are aimed at two different markets. The bebop is not supposed to be a true camera platform, it’s meant to be used for some fun under the sun with a camera on it that you can pull out at any time. The phantom 3 4K is meant for more professional aspects or at least decent filmmaking. A better comparison would have been the spark and the bebop since both are trying to hit the same market.
I have owned both drones and the software issues with dji were a deal killer. Always crashing and then the no fly zones enforcement on the dji app made it almost impossible to fly my dji drone in my area. None of those problems with parrot plus Parrott has vastly improved the video on the bebop 2. At 1980p the Bebops look as good as the phantoms
The downside with a gimbal is if the quad comes down hard the gimbal is taking the brunt. I had a home built hex with a £150 gimbal and the quad had a power brown out and the gimbal was destroyed in like 5 seconds as it just smashed feet first into the ground.
Phantom is better BUT what about compatibility? Phantom is big and is a hustle to carry around compared to Bepop 2. Which for ms I travel allot, so therefore Bepop is more convient for compatibility
Hugh Mungus no, there moves nothing. The Bebop has a 180° Camera and you can Choose what the Quad Filmes ;)

I would think that the bebop should be the minimalist drone to get. I feel like an idiot for having a Sharper Image - Dx-4. I tried to return it to best buy because of defects but they want a receipt!!?? If people put the receipts with the christmas presents? ... ... ... My first thought would be that a lot of druggies would just return the gift to get cash for drugs to last a couple hours. I don't do drugs. But all I wanted was my dx-4 replaced, or even upgraded to at least the parrot bebop (the $200 bebop)
Tyee Cambrón yeah ain't gonna happen with best buy, see if Wal-Mart carries that, try returning there. Anyway, news flash people, gimble less cams are the CES 2017 drone optics rage, thanks to chip maker Amberella
I agree that the 4k blows the bebop 2 out of the water. The better review would probably be between the bebop 2 and the standard, although even there the dji would likely win. I myself have the first bebop drone and I love it, but in reality it's more like a hobby drone than a professional one. Until Parrot comes out with 4k, I'm probably going to go with dji.
It's very difficult to choose one. the quality of the video is very important so obviously I would go for phantom BUT bebop looks better ( important for the people around ) easy to carry ( the new remote control is awesome ) and it's 499€ for drone+remote control+FPV headset while phantom is 649€ for drone and remote control
great review...have flown both ! bebop 2 is my fave ! why ? bebop 2 is a race car in the air so much fun to fly nothing beats it. it's a shame you didn't compare the fun factor of both :)
well to sum everything up if you want a drone that is weak in Arial photography and fun to play with then the bebop 2 is the way to go.The phantom 3 4k is not a toy and not to race or play around with both have their specifications
A have a phantom 3 advanced max 2.7 k but mass range like 3 miles with light bridge. But I paid 679.99 for my phantom 3 advanced. The Parrot 2 BeBop is going for 200-250 dollars now and I want one for that price it is a decent drone. This is not a fair comparison video.
I have both. My phantom 3 standard holds no comparison, flight time is better, distance is better. Imo bebop 2 is more stable in high winds. Video quality is great 1080 is all you need 4k is overkill. Couldn't be happier with bebop 2. Keeping my dji P3 in the closet and it will remain there.
I just ordered fully loaded Bebop 2 with skycontroller 2 and FPV goggles - for 200$ No DJI phantom can beat this price, its still very expensive even today in 2020
Help my drone can only go 135 meters far and 50 meters high and I will lose connection with the skycontroller 2 and with a iPhone 10 meters far and 5 meters high why does it do that please help
hi there, I just got my parrot bebop 2 and I cant seem to get clear footage through onto my ipad! Im not sure if the ipad doesn't receive the same quality and therefore my video looks shitty or if there are some settings I need to fiddle with? could you possibly send through some settings or any clarification on my problem?
Is the Samsung tab A good with the sky controller? Beacause I want to get a Samsung tablet JUST for my parrot bebop 2 but I don't know which one! If you know about any other good SAMSUNG tablets for the bebop 2 could you please tell me. Thanks
My bebop 1 can only fly for 3 or 4 min max 5 and I landed in snow and the camera is broken, i never buy a parrot drone aggain, i bought a mavic air drone now and i’m sooopp happy about it
everywhere a phantom shows up people get scared about their privacy but when a bebop shows up it's just a toy for most people.
*Buy the DJI Phantom 3 Standard now with a insane discount at DJI with this link:* click.dji.com/AE87aDWBFv3g-VcYsg?pm=link&as=0001 Check it out :)
S U P E R T R O L L cuz phantom has 4K and that means you can see them enter their phone password from 10 feet above
For hundred dollars or less, Parrot can install a better camera. They need to go ahead and do this so they can compete on a more professional level with the Phantom's video quality. Parrot already has an outstanding base product to work with. Are you listening, Parrot ?
It's much less conspicuous to the casual observer. Look at the camera hanging underneath the Phantom on the gimbal ! Which one looks more like a toy to you ? Which one would you be more intimidated by if it flew past your window ?
Yeah no one cares about my mavic lol
I just picked up the bebop 2 drone.
For $499
I got the Bebop 2
Skycontroler V2 (Much smaller)
And the FPV goggles.
So far it's pretty awesome.
Quad Plex well it was 499 for everything plus I got a 50 dollar gift card for frys electronics. So ontop of the drone itself being on sale that was awesome. The drone doesn't have the BEST 4k out of this world quality but the 1080p is still great. It is easy and fun to fly, I usually go about 20mins as I fear any risk of dying battery lol.
how do you like it ? how far can you fly using your phone as the camera clearly? how can you fly away from your person?
brett standley to be honest I wish I knew. I ended up returning it. my friend had the phantom 3 4k with the carrying backpack and sold it to me for 300. I couldn't not buy it from him lol. the p3 is really nice and easy to fly for sure!
The Parrot Bebop 2 is so trash because the video quality and lighting it shoots at is so bad! Plus the Phantom 3 Standard (what I have) is the same price almost but it comes with a controller, better camera, no mess ups with software (cough, parrot bebop), more compact drone, better unboxing experience, an SD card slot (its already packaged with an 8gb SD card), and way more!

I personally like the parrot better it also has the fun factor and will hit speeds up to 35 mph
saves you money too.
Very good fair review,though of course that's the first edition Bebop 2 with the huge chunky skycontroller ( similar to the controller you got with the Bebop1 ).I bought the Bebop 2 in November 2016 on black Friday ,got a great deal with the price reduced from £599 down to £449.That was the Bebop 2 FPV package which has the smaller playstation gamepad type controller and FPV goggles.I have to admit,i didn't get to fly it until august this year( stayed unopened for 9 months,so good job there wasn't a problem with it).But so far I have had 21 flights and 2 1/2 hours flight time and happy with it.Im not saying its no where near as good as say the DJI Mavic (which costs 3 times as much),but its great fun,easy to fly and I'm happy with how the videos have came out.This was my last video from 4 weeks ago,when I went to watch a natural phenomenon called the severn bore,a type of tidal wave created 40 miles inland on the River Severn in Gloucestershire ,Uk

"Where's your controller for the Bebop?"
"ohh It's in the truck!?!!!?!?!!!!"
idiot
SpazTheGamer
It's just personal preference I guess
The Bebop 2 can handle crashes WAY better than the Phantom. I've crashed my Bebop many times, without any real damage to the drone (including a full-speed head-on crash into a wall). A little tiny crash with the Phantom and you'll likely have to order new parts to fix it.
that's because of its light weight, I guess
Ed St Louis you are correct, but we all know that p34k is the way to go
That's because the Phantom is photography drone not meant to be crashed unlike the cheap 50$ "drones". The Bebop is made more for fun than photography so it will obviously be easier to replace parts for it.
cause it's a toy
Camera drone??L ROFLMAO it is also an overpriced toy. Camera drones are way North of $4k.
NEW SUBSCRIBER- my second of your reviews and you again did a good job- i appreciate the manner in which you communicate the information - professional and practical
3:00 is the big difference, I have a Bebop 1 and a P3P. P3P u can fly looking at the screen, Bebop u can't too latent.
Phantom 3 advanced and pro do have an hdmi out on the lightbridge controller!
Yes you're right but the Phantom 3 4k does not have Lightbridge and that's what he said in the vid. The 4k cam and the lack of Lightbridge are the two things that sets the P3 4k apart from the rest of the Phantom 3 series as it uses "extended WiFi".
very professional comparison, thanks so much. I really think that it makes sense to compare both products.
Thank you so much for this video! I've wanted to buy a drone for a long time now, and thanks to you I've made my mind up and gonna buy the Bebop 2! Hopefully I'll like it!
I think this vid comparison is 100% spot-on correct regarding the vid quality and capabilities of these two platforms BUT I will tell you that the Bebop is something that almost anyone can fly and the Phantom 3 series just isn't. I own the Phantom 3 4k and other DJI platforms like the NAZA M v2 & LITE and there is a lot of work to be done by DJI to simplify their crafts if they want to compete with easy-to-fly drones like the Bebop.
Why did you review the old sky controller instead of the sky controller 2?
Great job! Honest review. I own a Phantom 3 Standard. I have been looking at a smaller solution for a stabilized camera platform, but I am not satisfied with the artifacts produced by the Bebop 2. For the Phantom, the photographic capabilities for under 500 are certainly an incredible value. I believe the Standard is using a Panasonic camera.

Of course I have lens options with the camera, but to have a great stabilized camera in the air is a plus plus. Subscribed. Thanks for the review!
personally I'm in for the bebop 2 and you can adjust the color depth on the bebop 2 ive seen other reviews on it and theres none of those black lines
ya this review was dji fan boy dog shit.
pretty nice review, just wanted to congrat you and to tell the video was really helpful, absolutly what I needed! thanks, andtake care!
I really was thinking about getting the bebop 1 but....I decided to save up to the parrot bebop 2 power edition...it just looks pretty decent and a normal controller.
ChrisDaFool the power is amazing btw. The battery life is great!
Not really an equal comparison.
Yes it is! The Parrot Bebop 2 is so trash because the video quality and lighting it shoots at is so bad!

"lets compare an overpriced 4k to a low priced 1080". i knew from the title this would be retarded.
Bebop is better
CargoSlayer
for sure
It's not better, phantoms are better, but they cost way more, and are harder to control.
FullMetal372
Bebop is better dude... I have both
Perimiter Music Why??The p3p has a 3 axis gimbal,can do 4k,comes with a controller and looks more like photography device not a toy.
YouNoob M.Faza.A.G
It's just more fun to fly! And you can use the virtual reality goggles to fly the bebop...so it's almost like you're In the cockpit. The phantom takes better videos tho. It all comes down to preference tbh
have you experience any fly aways with either drone
Yes -_-
+SQUIDDUCK TV which one flew away?
It was the bebop
This video makes me feel bad. I just got my bebop 2 and flightcontroler 2 , after 20 flights I love it. And my video quality looks good on my devices.

yuneec will easily blow the p3s away
Great video man.
great comparison video.. thanks.. I love my P3S...amazing value for money... so confidence inspiring too. would suggest you compare the different ways they both handle intelligent flight operations.. I think the bebop is more fun... and I believe a little more options
Gareth Rogers bebop is used for entertainment and play,while all the p3s' are used. for professional aerial photography
LOL good joke. Name me one pro film shot on a Phantom, fawnboy
^^^ When a guy gets ignored. xD
With Bebop2 you can easily travel the world and capture. You can even take it on your carry-om bag.
With the DJI drones you need another 30 bucks to take it with you on your travelling.
most airlines allow 2 carry on bags, phantom in one to shove in the overhead locker and your main carry on can go under the seat.
Petros Manesis you are sad that you don t have a p34k
-The Phantoms lack of HDMI is a total no-go for me, you do FPV once you don't want to miss it anymore. Also the Latency is far less with FPV.
-The Price of the Phantom is 3x the price of the Bebop 2
-Even with the SkyController, the phantom costs 1.5x as much. Better use that money for FPV Googles a backpack and additional batteries
-Considering the price, it is dissappointing that the Phantom looks like a childrens toy. No disrespect, but it is really ugly.
-The Bebop allows flying without a controller (using only Smartphone/Tablet)
-The Bebop offers Flight Plan for GPS flights
-3rd Party Bebop Apps also offer Follow Me and Look at me flight modes
Technologically they are both very respectable drones. For quality imaging I'd surely go for the phantom. For fun and racing I'd definitely stick to the Bebop 2
The Bebop 2 looks like a pencil sharpener with props.
Lol
Hahah
Here in 2018, Got my Bebop for $189.00 refurbished W/ the skycontroller 2 and goggles off ebay....On the 2nd day I crashed onto the roof of a 7 story building while in FVP....I was decending and had the camera set too high and never saw the building below me until it was too late...IT stayed connected although there was a message that said emergency landing,motors stalled...And I even took a picture of What it saw where ever it went down,showing lots of stainless metal,and part of a ladder it appeared...That happened on a Saturday morning,and the the building was closed.On the following Monday I went in and told the maintenance man,who went up on the roof and FOUND the drone wedged between two huge fan units on top the roof where it fell 20' down in between them! Upon inspection the only damage I found was a small crack on top of the battery housing,and a couple small nicks in the front props....That drone sat on that roof the whole weekend in 28-32 degree temperatures and icing and STILL flies great no problems! My DJI phantom 3 standard couldnt even take 1 hard landing and almost the whole gimbal assembly had to be replaced and I'm STILL having troubled with it! The ONLY thing my DJI has on the Bebop is slightly better video quality,and thats IT! My Parrot beats the DJI in EVERY other catagory!
Most people think that spending more money makes the drone better,again I'll tell you the bebop is not a toy.When people have trouble with the bebop is 95 percent operator error,not waiting for the gps to lock before take off,wi if interference adjustment,for less interference etc,I bought 3 bebops,last one I bought came in a package Sky Controller and a bebop together for $ 249.00,try buying a DJI for that brand new,like parrot has going.If I crashed the DJI,like I crashed my bebop forget it,the DJI would be done in.
Very good comparison! I wish I had seen the video before buying a Bebop 2 - quality of the images and videos is simply ridiculous even with perfect light and good weather conditions.
This is a poor comparison,they are aimed at two different markets. The bebop is not supposed to be a true camera platform, it’s meant to be used for some fun under the sun with a camera on it that you can pull out at any time. The phantom 3 4K is meant for more professional aspects or at least decent filmmaking. A better comparison would have been the spark and the bebop since both are trying to hit the same market.
I have owned both drones and the software issues with dji were a deal killer. Always crashing and then the no fly zones enforcement on the dji app made it almost impossible to fly my dji drone in my area. None of those problems with parrot plus Parrott has vastly improved the video on the bebop 2. At 1980p the Bebops look as good as the phantoms
I got the parrot Drone bebop2 ( black and white) and took it to the park and very good quality 1080p and very smooth
Basically you can't throw a Phantom 3 in your backpack. That's the main for me.
What like a regular backpack? I'm too scared of putting mine in a backpack, it might break.
Yes. And the Mavic price is nearly double, and without the goggles.
The downside with a gimbal is if the quad comes down hard the gimbal is taking the brunt. I had a home built hex with a £150 gimbal and the quad had a power brown out and the gimbal was destroyed in like 5 seconds as it just smashed feet first into the ground.
Are you going to do a phantom 4 review. And please do a inspire 1 review and love your reviews keep up the good work
Lots of good information. Thanks for the review.
Thank you for a very professional comparison video 😊
I think the distance on the skycontroller is the winner for me and the phantom 3 is around the same price and can only get like 500 metres
How long is the sale
Phantom is better BUT what about compatibility? Phantom is big and is a hustle to carry around compared to Bepop 2. Which for ms I travel allot, so therefore Bepop is more convient for compatibility
do you think the 3DR solo is better than the Parrot bebop 2?
Target is still selling the Bebop 1 for $450 in the store lol
Thought I recognized some of those roads! Langley area by kwantlen poly!
Anything with a fixed camera nowadays just will not suffice.... Add a gimbal, Parrot. Come on...
Kieran Fitzpatrick looks good on paper but that gimbal is on average $150. Besides racing comes don't have gimbals
Yeah but theres no replacing a gimbal in terms of stability with all the variables concerning a drone in flight.
Hugh Mungus no, there moves nothing. The Bebop has a 180° Camera and you can Choose what the Quad Filmes ;)
I would think that the bebop should be the minimalist drone to get. I feel like an idiot for having a Sharper Image - Dx-4. I tried to return it to best buy because of defects but they want a receipt!!??
If people put the receipts with the christmas presents? ... ... ... My first thought would be that a lot of druggies would just return the gift to get cash for drugs to last a couple hours. I don't do drugs. But all I wanted was my dx-4 replaced, or even upgraded to at least the parrot bebop (the $200 bebop)
Tyee Cambrón yeah ain't gonna happen with best buy, see if Wal-Mart carries that, try returning there.
Anyway, news flash people, gimble less cams are the CES 2017 drone optics rage, thanks to chip maker Amberella
What would be the point of recording in 25/24 fps vs 30fps? I don't see how it makes the recording "better" in some cases.
I agree that the 4k blows the bebop 2 out of the water. The better review would probably be between the bebop 2 and the standard, although even there the dji would likely win. I myself have the first bebop drone and I love it, but in reality it's more like a hobby drone than a professional one. Until Parrot comes out with 4k, I'm probably going to go with dji.
Thanks for the cool and honest review.
It's very difficult to choose one. the quality of the video is very important so obviously I would go for phantom BUT bebop looks better ( important for the people around ) easy to carry ( the new remote control is awesome ) and it's 499€ for drone+remote control+FPV headset while phantom is 649€ for drone and remote control
great review...have flown both ! bebop 2 is my fave ! why ? bebop 2 is a race car in the air so much fun to fly nothing beats it. it's a shame you didn't compare the fun factor of both :)
well to sum everything up if you want a drone that is weak in Arial photography and fun to play with then the bebop 2 is the way to go.The phantom 3 4k is not a toy and not to race or play around with both have their specifications
should I get phantom 3 standard for $309 or bebop 2 fpv for $281
Prithamsai Mulagura I want to know where you can get a Phantom 3 for $309!
How connect the phantom's 3 4k controller to mobile phone or tablet? Is wifi or ..???
A have a phantom 3 advanced max 2.7 k but mass range like 3 miles with light bridge. But I paid 679.99 for my phantom 3 advanced. The Parrot 2 BeBop is going for 200-250 dollars now and I want one for that price it is a decent drone. This is not a fair comparison video.
You sound sooooo biased from the start in this video
Paid by DJI
thats ok. dji fanboys make the bebop more affordable.
There's no contest. This wasn't a super fair comparison to begin with, but you don't have to be a DJI fanboy to know that.
It can get upset with wind. The drone can cry?
Thank you for such an informational video.
I have both. My phantom 3 standard holds no comparison, flight time is better, distance is better. Imo bebop 2 is more stable in high winds. Video quality is great 1080 is all you need 4k is overkill. Couldn't be happier with bebop 2. Keeping my dji P3 in the closet and it will remain there.
I just ordered fully loaded Bebop 2 with skycontroller 2 and FPV goggles - for 200$ No DJI phantom can beat this price, its still very expensive even today in 2020
What about the skycontroller 2
Does the phantom have a follow me feature?
yes, it follows the signal of your controller if you want
Yes
Hi,I liked your video.What is the app?
Bebob looks better and is compact, phantom looks to tall
the dji is for professional you dummie (no offense)
I agree thanks for the info I just bought one for bday Wooh
Professional?? LOL yeah right. An inspire is borderline pro but you have to go to. Spreading Wings to really hit pro in DJI junk
Joel Owers you know why it's taller? For the gimbal.
Bebop looks good. Phantom is better, problem is it has a price tag to match. The phantoms are $500 more then the bebop.
Help my drone can only go 135 meters far and 50 meters high and I will lose connection with the skycontroller 2 and with a iPhone 10 meters far and 5 meters high why does it do that please help
where did you get the stand
are there any FPV goggles for the phantom 3 standard
Nick Hall not for the standard im afraid. Its possible with the advanced and pro but for a decent setup will cost you between $400-$500
The portability isn't bad with the controller they have just redesigned the controller and is much smaller.
Awesome review!!!
What's the name of the camera app for the DJI drone ?
Walmart sells the parrot for $200 or $300 though and even the phantom 3 standard is still $500
I crashed my phantom 4K today(SMFH) so I ordered the bebop. The phantom is better but boy or boy you better not crash it!!!
hi there, I just got my parrot bebop 2 and I cant seem to get clear footage through onto my ipad! Im not sure if the ipad doesn't receive the same quality and therefore my video looks shitty or if there are some settings I need to fiddle with? could you possibly send through some settings or any clarification on my problem?
does the phantom 3 4k and phantom standard come with the come back home feature??
Yes
how many drones do you have?
Is the Samsung tab A good with the sky controller? Beacause I want to get a Samsung tablet JUST for my parrot bebop 2 but I don't know which one! If you know about any other good SAMSUNG tablets for the bebop 2 could you please tell me. Thanks
nice honest review 👍
Can you help me find a deal for this drone under 700$?
N Canada 🇨🇦
bepop 2 are modern and super new. so ill take that!
a phantom 3 4k range is only 500 meters
I had one so I know it
Vincent Van Der Meer well, your phantom was obviously faulty
mine can not do more than 500 meters either
Lewibooi the Waffle
dji said that the range of the 4k pro sucks
Vincent Van Der Meer distance or altitude???
Flydistance
i want the range and that would be the bebop it goes almost twice as far
Michael Johnson but as he said you will never actually go that far because the signal is very inconsistent
Use the flight plan software with the Bebop Nd fly till the battery dies
I have the Phantom 3 4 K and my friend has a parrot Bebop 2 Phantom Beast Pair hands down
💯😃
Make Drone comparison with the phantom 3 pro vs Phantom 4
Phantom 4 is the obvious winner
My bebop 1 can only fly for 3 or 4 min max 5 and I landed in snow and the camera is broken, i never buy a parrot drone aggain, i bought a mavic air drone now and i’m sooopp happy about it
u forgot when you crash te bepop head on u break the camera
The video isn't great without the cover but with it, it's plain terrible. Don't get one of those.
I like the bebop two the camera graphics look bad wen using once u finish filming it processes and looks beautiful .
hey waz.....can u make hakintosh tutorial using amd configuration... pls....
what's the app
To be honest I dont care about camrera quality I just wanna fly
Daily C.A.O.G then buy a DJI spark
I am gonna get the parrot Bebop 2 Extreme adventure pack (working on getting the money
good vid. good explanations. Bebop2 is a good drone, dji3 is better.
Totally fair comparisson.
mine goes 2km (1.4m)
How bout the sky controller 2 ok
Do you like DJI more
Parrot is trash
i thought the Phantom advanced could go over 3miles!
awesome video
lol i have phantom 3 Standard and im really enjoying it
Help Bebop or phantom
