    After being 3 years old, Is the Yuneec Q-500 4K still worth it❓❓❓ At today's prices, it may be a bird to consider during the Black Friday/Holiday clearance events. That's all I'm saying... -djsoulforce!!! HAPPY FLYING GUYS! POW!!!

      hey can you please suggest me the best camera drone under $150 dollar please.....

    • @DJSOULFORCE
      @DJSOULFORCE  5 лет назад

      I'm sorry, I can not make any recommendations for that price class. There are just too many camera drones in that category to call any one of them "the best!" I suggest that you do more research, take a look at some of the MJX Bugs Series of quadcopters and compare them to the others. Some camera drones have GPS and brushless motors, others have no GPS and brushed motors, etc. ...too many to chose from!!! Thanks for watching and your question.

      @DJSOULFORCE  5 лет назад +1

      Of the three you listed, I like the Bugs 3 Pro THE LEAST! The Bugs 5W is a very nice (little) bird it performs very well and has the performance features of the Bugs 2SE, which you didn't list. The Bugs 3, of course, is a totally manual bird and is not in this class, but I do love it, I have 3 of them!!! If I was about to buy my first Bugs with GPS at this moment, I would get the Bugs 2SE - ruclips.net/video/SVhXx8rttoY/видео.html
      I voted the original Bugs 3 quadcopter of the year/"best bang for the buck" of the year, for the past two years! All of the Bugs Series are awesome buys, however, I was a little disappointed with the Bugs 3 Pro, it has the shortest flight time of all the Bugs!

    Soul..... I’m not so sure if they are still a “ Best Buy”, but still most certainly worth owning.... I have 3 of them, plus a Typhoon H.....the “ experience” of flying the yuneec’s are what’s different... the Q500 with its big bottom girl look, is a sight to behold in the air, and the sheer gliding sophistication of the H is just astounding.... the cams for both ( extremely similar , if not the same barring software), do a very nice job for raw video, which can easily be manipulated post production.... hell, I do post work with my DJI P4Pro, and Inspire 1 video as well.... anyway, I’m rambling bro, hope you had a great Thanksgiving!

    I bought my Q500 4K for $339.99. Great deal. Love the big drone. Once you use the software to change the settings, this drone gets over a mile in range. That is good enough for me! The camera gimbal is awesome. Just love flying this drone. In that price range you get a lot of bang for the buck. My Q500 is steady and stable. I love taking this big drone places. Doesnt bother me at all. Still worth buying in 2019 for that low price.

      Southern Arkansas Rail - That's a darn good question! I'll be waiting for his reply also. I haven't done any mods on mine, but I have been disappointed with this quad's range ever since I got it. It's mostly the FPV range that bothers me, otherwise, a great flyer.

    • @Vintech64
      @Vintech64 5 лет назад +1

      I updated the firmware with some custom made firmware that I found on the Tube. That unlocked everything for me. Used Yuneec GUI to tweak settings. I am not worried about fpv. Since I have been flyng without it for some time anyway. I took it 800 meters horizontal the first time and back. Then bumped it up to 1000 meters. Very scared on that one. But no problems. I'm in Southern California. So altitude is not my thing. If you go over 122 meters or 400 feet, your likely to T-bone an aircraft for sure. Heliports surround me. And airports. So I have to drive a bit before I can fly. I think I will do a distance video in a few days and post it. I get 19 to 24 Satellites GPS lock as soon as I turn my bird on. The transmitter works great for me. Hope it lasts. Have a good day. Oh I did have to get used to the slower flying speeds. But that is a trade off for smooth cinematic footage. At least the kind I like!

  • @NoviceQuads
    @NoviceQuads 6 лет назад +2

    The Typhoon looks impressive. But features of Cheaper Birds just outshine it. There is an antenna mod for the Drone itself that extends your fpv out to about 500 meters. But other than that it's basically a bird for beginner pilots. Great to see they are still around. The Typhoon H is a lot better on distance but not much. Happy Thanksgiving brother

    • @DJSOULFORCE
      @DJSOULFORCE  6 лет назад +2

I also have the XK X500, I flew it two days ago and it flies a lot like the X380 only bigger. I almost bought the Q500 because of your review but I am glad that I waited.

      Thanks for watching and sharing your Q500 stories! Mine fell from the sky (without any warnings) once. I found that the Yuneec batteries are CRAP! They are not intelligent batteries (like DJI) and will continue to show a good charge, even after the battery is damaged or puffed up. Then, they will fail in mid-flight before the remote controller gives you low battery warning. Shortly after making this video, mine fell from sky and is now in pieces, lol!!!

    I have contemplated purchasing the Typhoon G because of the price drop and the handheld gimble steady cam attachment that comes with it. But, it being a Yuneec has kept me from it. They use older technology in there GPS system and are far from steady in flight when compared to DJI. Plus the video quality falls short with Yuneec in all of their drones also when compared to DJI. I probably will add this one to my fleet though just because I cannot help but add to it,lol. I do not know what it is about droning that makes us collect so many. It is like an addiction. It is my understanding that the Yuneec Typhoon G is a 4K camera drone and I noticed you only used 1080p in this video. Maybe I am mistaken.

      NO, don't buy it for that price. Even though he only had it for 4 months, the Q500 4K has been out of production for over 3 years. More than likely, he bought it used or refurbished and is now UP SELLING IT!!!

    Yes it is a good old bird, I sold mine to buddy of mine for $300. Fly more combo, but if you want some stunning 4K video with little effort this Q500 is it. Yuneec was kicking DJI’s as with the Q500 and thy had a great fan base that stuck by them. But Yuneec just said we made are money we don’t have time for you little guys and just kick the Q500 and there customers to the curb.

    typhoon q 500 and the H is outdated the good is that it will be really cheap to buy today. who wants to carry a huge box i believe that is one of the biggest drone around.. technology is moving fast small drones are the big ticket today and they will easily outperform the typhoon q 500 and the H hands down. i do a lot of flaying with my typhoon Q only cause it houses my go pro and i love the go pro platform. for small great drones i will go for the parrot anafy or any of the mavic family.

      Good comments and I agree with you. But hey, some guys like the big quads and this is a good time to buy it! I love my Mavic Pro, but even a Phantom 3 Standard (which is smaller than the Q500) can out perform the Yuneec Typhoons!!!

    Hope that wasn't Scotch at the beginning in your drink? Never acquired a taste for that stuff myself. I definitely fall into the "You still have that big old nasty bird?" category .. ha ha! The "fish eye" problem is from an overly wide camera lens. The gimbal setup was just poorly designed, as was the entire antenna setup. Even my old XK X380 has better range than that old Yuneec Big Bird" (speaking of big birds, remember the old XK X500 .. I think that was what it was called ?) As for being a good buy .. for the money, I'd go with a "factory refurb" of the DJI Mavic Air, which has far superior video, range and capabilities. All DJI Factory refurbs come with a full 1 yr. warranty. The new Hubsan Zeno at $400 is probably a better deal than this boat anchor .. but the Zeno has problems of its own .. but still not bad for the price. I HATE to recommend a DJI Spark @ $400, but it does have better range, better video, and has obstacle avoidance, which neither the Yuneec or Hubsan have (but after my experiences with Sparks, I really can't recommend them either). Looks like you at least had "flying weather" there yesterday .. it was 26 deg. F. here .. too cold for me! Well, thanks for the flashback. You've got enough quads that you could do an entire series of "Flashback" videos to cover the entire Winter season. POW! Catch you in an upcoming video ... cheers!
    Edit: After giving it some thought about what might be in your "holiday cheer" glass, and based on your personality, I came up with 3 likely possibilities: 1) Seagrams Crown Royal 2) "Gentleman Jack" 3) Captain Morgan Let me know if I was even close .. ha ha ... Cheers!

Also upgrade. And of course I will want something better in 6 months just like everybody else. But I do enjoy the journey. I like to find the positive traits and get excited about them. Pushing 50 now. Trying to keep things as interesting as possible. When You get an injury, that leaves you jobless and no retirement.
      No compensation for your injuries. I am going to struggle and work for the rest of my life just to survive. So I love and enjoy every little thing that I get.
