    I will say the same as I did about their previous cheap model Hubsans badged up for this slick glossy marketing company to pass off as a premium brand. Worth half of what EXO is asking. No way can this product be competition for the true drone companies who control the whole chain from start to finish - R&D, proving, manufacturing and marketing.Hubsan would be better going it alone as they used to do and set the price of the drone at its true worth. At a price of $350 this could maybe sway people from a DJI mini SE , but certainly not the DJI Air 2s ( which is still available) let alone the new Air 3 standard model which EXO appear to be aiming at.
    You are one of the few reviewers who is truthful, honest, and not taken in by the hype and gloss, for adhering to those scruples Jack you have my respect.

    No, it is not even in the same league. Although it boasts excellent light adjustment, image processing, color correction, and grading capabilities, it drifts too much, and its software requires significant improvement. Its compass calibration and candlelight hold features need work and lack SmartControl.
    By the way, I love my EXO Blackhawk 3 Pro. However, it’s simple: do not compare it to an Autel or DJI drone. I will give you a real assessment of my experience as a 25-year Head Engineer, a former Air Force guy, and a drone pilot for 11 years.
    DJI offers the very best consumer drone for under $20K. If you are looking for a similar performance from an American drone company, be prepared to spend much more. For example, the Parrot Anafi USA | Gov Edition costs $14,000.00, while I can get the DJI Mavic 3 Thermal Enterprise with Care Plus Warranty for $5,998.00.
    If you go up to $10K, you can get the DJI Matrice 300, which is light years ahead of Anafi USA. I also own a Parrot PF728000 Anafi Drone, and while it is a great drone that flies well, the construction could be better, and it is no DJI, either.

    I think EXO is doing some pretty good stuff with their drones, especially with the prices. I personally wouldn't buy an exo drone, because I just don't like the frames. They kind of look like flying bricks, but I think they're good enough for the people likes them and that doesn't want to spend a lot of money.

      >especially with the prices - See this is my only real issue with Exo, their drones seem like good quality, but the BHP3 is nearly $1000. You can get the brand new DJI Mini 4 Pro for under $800 and it has more features to it, or the M4P with the RC 2 controller for the same price as the BHP3. I really wanted to like Exo but they're just not competitive enough in their pricing to ever threaten DJI. The BHP3 at $600-700 would be much more enticing.

    Camera has it problems. I have issues with my Blackhawk 3. App freezes often, video quality is only good when you use a SD card. The internal storage has an issue on mine when recording at 200 mbps. Lots of waves on the 4k video unless recorded at 100 mbps on SD card, then its fine.
    2.7k 60 fps video works fine. 1080p video has glitches on both 30 and 60 FPS. Recent firmware updates are killing this drone.

    Looks like a nice drone, I used to have a Hubsan Zino 2 Plus, back before Exo took over US sales.(And then a Golden Eagle mistook it for a potential lunch and knocked it out of the sky). I liked the drone, except for the fact that it tended to crab off to an angle instead of flying straight forward. I had to recalibrate the controller from time to time to lessen the problem, but it never went away completely. Are there any issues with the Blackhawk 3 Pro flying straight and true, or has Hubsan resolved that issue in current offerings?
    Also, is it just my septuagenarian eyes, or is the image really saturated? Not that that's all bad...

    I will say this, I switch from my Mavic 2 to the Blackhawk 2 and it was the worse decision I have ever made. It rarely connects, it somehow says it has a weak gps signal despite being out in the open and connected to 15 satellites. Then when it FINALLY connects, I record videos and take pictures, I come home to look at what I did and literally nothing is there. I have NEVER had this issue with my DJI and it pisses me off that I spent this amount of money on a drone they claimed to be great. I have had it little under 2 years and I have only been able to fly it successfully, 5 times. And I doubt I can return it at this point. DO NOT BUY THIS DRONE.

    Thank you for the review! Unfortunately because of DJI connection to china military it's not allowed in my house lol.
    So it's nice to see another drone company other than DJI makes good drones.
