Fantasy came true in December of 2019 when DJI released the Mavic Mini.
I’m really happy to see that you are reviewing other drones. The new Mavic 2 came out and that’s all you see it’s really good to see someone covering other drones keep up the good work
Loved how you start talking faster and faster as the rain falls more and more.😂great little drone
You said it was your first time flying a drone in the video.
This must be way back when the Captain Drone empire just began. Very cool.
I love your videos. You don’t only review the more popular drones but you sure have reviewed some of the best.
I am looking to get a Hubsan Zino Pro because of your recent review of it although with this video I wasn’t sure if it was really you or an imposter because there was no snow on the ground. lol.
Keep up the good work. You have become one of the most trusted reviewers in the RUclips world.
I always trust your opinion, and experience Capt. Thanx for the knowledge sir.
Wow. Hadnt seen this model before. Thanks for reviewing
Indeed this is a very good drone CD! A good flyer and so many goodies firmly packed into such a small thing.
Very interesting.
Thanks for your review. And I agree with one of the other comments: almost all attention goes to the two well known newcomers. I can’t hear that name anymore. Ok, that will come back one day. But you show that the droneworld has many other goodies to offer..
Nice video.....yes I agree, it’s nice to see other drone reviews!
Nice review. Cheap looking drone but you showed it can perform. Thanks.
Nice little toy. My first foray into brushless quads were the xk series. They were a bit of a handful but this one looks cool and with a camera too. Maybe I’ll get one to use while my Mavic is in hospital, took 3 days this time just to get the shipping label. Could be in for a long wait.
subbed. you get straight to the point and dont drag it out. keep it up!
Thank you Harry & welcome to the channel.
Very nice looks good thanks for the review
That's a smashing little drone. I want one!
Great video. Awesome looking drone
niffty little drone! thanks for the review
Looks like a derivate from the Zerotech Dobby. And it is not addressing the most lacking feature of Dobby, too, the fixed angle camera. Make it a little bit bigger, heavier and add a one-axis gimbal, so the camera angle can be adjusted during flight as required.
Nice little drone. Good starter.👍🏿
Nice review, camera and flight test 👍
Cool little drone
Captain! Another great, informative, and interesting review by the best reviewer! It looks like a great little drone. There is a negative comment below that the drone is not good. I wonder if he happened to get a defective model. That does occur on occasion. I am getting one for the grandkids for Christmas! I will let you know how mine flys, Captain! Until next video...keep up the great reviews!
Thank you! I can't speak for anyone else when it comes to their experience with the drone but mine was as seen in this video. I only flew it on one battery. Sometimes it comes down to experience & since I've been doing this for so long, the slightest glitch or issue is easily resolved and I move one. For other people it is a showstopper and just creates an overall bad experience. Mine worked to my satisfaction. Again, I only flew one batteries worth as seen in this video, then crashed it, then flew it some more. It made a very good first impression on me.
Nicely done love the details of the drone. $$$$
Hello guys this is my Bebop2 drone.. a very awsome toy to have. ruclips.net/video/Bb8BbQ4DDug/видео.html
Hey Cpt,
Enjoy your videos as always. Liked this one enough to consider ordering. But when I queried them if additional batteries are available, the responded that they are not. I'll wait until available in US (w/batteries). Or better yet you'll show us an even better one for the money in future videos.
Ha ha, ya never know. I did ask TomTop about the batteries as well and they said they would be available in the near future. This drone is one of those exceptions where they packed plenty of good stuff into it at a nice price.
That quadcopter has some very useful features and seems to be better value than a lot of other nire expensive brands!
I like the size, the brushless motors, the gps and optical flow and it has very good flight time.
Excelkent review, I've subbed to your channel, I'm sure I used to be?
Thank you & welcome to the channel.
Looks like a fun drone! 🙂
Not fun at all the thing has so many issues that was never fixed. There is no way to even fly it as the app crashes and full of bugs...read other reviews do not buy this drone!!!
WOW looks great.thanks
Hello guys this is my Bebop2 drone.. a very awsome toy to have. ruclips.net/video/Bb8BbQ4DDug/видео.html
Good price too. 👍😎❗good video.
I think the name is GREAT! It makes me think of the Fairy Air Force (Yukikaze), which is awesome and very appropriate!
Very nice camera
The controller looks like Teletubbies
Finally! I found the Fairy!
Been looking for this drone for about 2yrs now.
I know this is a very old video you have. But if ever you still have this drone, and you plan to sell it. Please do let me know. Been looking for this model for quite awhile now.
Good Video. Thanks. A lot of competitors are getting closer to the higher end drones. Not quite there yet. But this looks fun. Maybe they will keep eating away at $1200 drones from the bottom up.
Hate to be the elephant in the room but here goes......as a backer on the kickstarter campaign I was one of the first to get and post a video review on the ks website. I experienced the same thing most others did *frustration* trying to get it to start the motors and lift off was a pain!!! Once it came down you had to restart and unlock and even then nothing !!! It also had a tendency to auto land for no apparent reason. Basically the problem is in the software or app. As to the actual flight and features.....yes when it works it works well, very stable easy to fly and GPS works well. Camera video quality is quite good however it really suffers from a lack of image stabilization and even it light winds there is a lot of rocking going on. It's so frustrating to get the damn thing to turn on and fly that it has become a $150 paperweight. I would suggest anybody thinking of buying one of these to look at the comments from the actual users which can be found on the kickstarter page or on the app store. Shame.....we all had such high hopes. I will try to post the actual video of my early flights. Ok posted video here....
ruclips.net/video/V-PLQvYUHSw/видео.html
capowacko . I’d place the responsibility on the manufacturers lack of QC for a lot of the issues you experienced. I’ve done quite a bit of work on Simtoo’s Dragonfly and all the issues were due to mistakes in the construction and the poor coding of the flight controller. They also have lousy Customer Support which to be honest is completely conspicuous by its absence.
Considering you backed a Kickstarter for a product that was already available on Alibaba, your experience makes sense
@@condorman6293 in actual fact this was not available on Alibaba at the start of the KS campaign. If you look at the comments from the backers on the KS campaign you will see chronologically when this indeed did happen much to the chagrin of the early backers. However NO ONE was in fact able to order and receive one although advertised and in fact the listing was pulled from Alibaba.
@@capodad2u Do you know the time lines?
@@condorman6293 like I said read the early comments regarding this on KS.
That camera looks really good...nice little machine
This little guy will be my test drone before I get the Spark. Question...what editing software do you use for your videos, if you use any at all? Thanx...
Looks good
Been thinking about getting my first drone. I think this might be the one for me. The price is right and I need it for b-roll of some aerial lawn care videos I want to shoot this year.
Awesome weather and cool review. Buy quality gimbal drones by the way.
please do a review on the Eachine E520S
WOW ... nice... thanks
Captain, thanks so much for your insightful reviews. Amazing and honest channel.
Did you have the chance to test the "follow me " mode?
Loved the small size packed with features. Only missed the remote camera tilt, but all the rest is great.
To be honest, the description said there was a follow me mode but I didn't see it on the App, although I could have missed it.
Ok, thanks for the feedback.
Just check the ratio likes vs dislikes to know you do it great. Keep on the good work, Captain.
Pretty cool
The main question is what do you do with all what is recorded? does it worth something?
Which one is better, this xt175 or the wingsland S6? (asuming i can get both at the same price)
You are the best drone reviewer on the internet by quite a large margin, Captain Drone. Entertaining episodes, even if I do not intend to buy the drone you are reviewing!
hi please mak more videos about this model!!! seems to be a good one!!
Nice drone... Bebop 1 - right now you can pick them up for 99.. The only downside is the 8GB on board.. 10 min flight time.. ??
Sounds like a Zerotech Dobby minus a few features, plus an SD card.
Just placed an order order with your coupon code. Hope it serves my expectations. Can't wait to unbox it and fly. BTW it's going to be my first drone.
It is not a bad drone for a first drone.
Update: I received my drone couple of days ago and I seriously think I should have thrown the money down a river than ordering this dangerous 'toy'. For a start, I had trouble taking off and when it did all of a sudden and cut my finger- I was bleeding like hell.
Fast fwd: Next couple of flights using GPS- the drone kept landing on its own ( very embarrassing..). And then one time when I pressed auto-land, it crashed on a nearby tree (away from the original takeoff location). BTW each time before flying, I caliberated the drone; mobile was on airplane mode, also waited for at least 12 also tried both apple and Android apps.
My advice: Don't buy this crap or get a third party insurance before you fly it as you could seriously hurt someone using this dangerous machine.
Pretty good
Since September 30, 2018 I'm flying the Fairy XT175 with iPhone 8 and is fantastic, so much fun. Thanks for your review otherwise I never bought this drone.
By the way, any other option like this one (in price range and flight time). Thanks again!!!
Glad to hear you are enjoying this drone. There are plenty of inexpensive drones, but when you add brushless motors and a good 1080p camera, they are not as inexpensive as this one. The MJXRC Bugs line of drones are pretty decent. My guess is there will be more drones in the price range of the Fairy in 2019 with similar or better options.
Since Hubsan has proven with the 502E that you can have a cheap drone with GPS, there is no reason all drones can't have this feature. This would keep a whole lot of people out of trouble with the FAA here in the states because GPS can be integrated with NFZ software.
I may need to get this to go up against the DJI Spark
DJi spark is great
there is a lot of difference between the simtoo camera and the idol?? I'm looking for a small drone that records well and has good range. I have doubts between both. Many thanks
Does not ship to the country im currently at. Will wait for it to be on other stores like BG and GB.
Nice review btw and not bad for its price!!! But would have been better if there had some camera tilt control 👍
Great review as always Captain
The code is great- it makes the price go up!
Yeah... I don't think the coupon is working as it should.
FROM WHAT I CAN SEE IT'S BETTER THAN THE RYZE TELLO!! Same battery life hold better, GPS, remote control, better camera, micro SD card
Looks like this is everything the TELLO wanted to be!!?
muzikmon2267 and 50 bucks more ,,,, 149.00 you can get a breeze at Walmart
@@budstephens7239
I think if you use Captain drone promo code it's under 150.
Is no reason for not having the ability for a microSD card.. TELLO camera footage is just horrible!! They definitely drop the ball with that one.. The hype around the Tello is because of the name DJI..
This Fairy drawing because it has a controller can go further then the yuneec breeze or the tello... And it definitely flies faster... The breeze has a much better camera 13mp and 4K video, you can control the gimbal from the Bluetooth controller on the phone..
I have the yuneec breeze, and the mavic pro.. for the money I agree you cannot beat the yuneec breeze 150 with a controller.. I got my MAVIC PRO used for only 700.00 fly more combo and everything in between... Was never crashed, had any water damage, even with the Platinum propellers.. if you know how to ask questions you can buy excellent used stuff in mint condition..
BETWEEN BOTH THOSE DRONES I GOT INDOORS AND OUTDOORS COVERED..
;)
@@kishan1146
I WILL
BUT GIVE ME A REASON TO PROVE THAT I HAVE THEM OUT OF PRO
IF I DO WHAT DO I GET AND HOW DO I WIN..
I'M INTO PROVING PEOPLE WRONG AND MAKING THEM LOOK STUPID
@@kishan1146
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE BET ME LOL
@@kishan1146 I WILL BE WAITING WISE-ASS
Looks like a winner. Would like to know what it's flight time is when you get a chance with the weather.
It is advertized at 16 mins and I'd say that is very close. The entire video was filmed on one battery in two different locations and there was plenty of time where I had it just hover while I was figuring out the features.
That thing looks incredible! In this short example the footage looked sharper than that of the Mantis Q. Is it really? I would love to see more footage of the Fairy in the future and maybe some comparison to other drones in its price range and a bit more professional drones (Spark, Mantis Q).
Cheers from Germany 🙂
Footage is comparable to the Mantis Q, except the Fairy has no image stabilization, so if it gets windy, you'll certainly notice it in the image.
Could somebody share original quality picture taken with this drone?
Another good one.. contixo f22
i cant see where to use rthe coupon
Very cool. Do the clouds affect the GPS at all?
No effect.
More drones like this should be available to the uk market so we can avoid all the stupid red tape
Not big on the name but looks like it performs good. Nice review!
Nice!
Make video more about that drone
The drone is garbage the app crashes and is no more then a paper weight.
does this drone has a dronie too? the best thing is weigh 140 grams (which has can travel most countries)
A nice one.
ji ya think you are great by the way, would you say this is better than the yuneec breeze? and can you try some of the other features ie follow me as i found the breeze isnt great on that but if you go slow its sort of ok.and when it get low on battery it just lands where it is which is a massive issue if you are in the kayak haha
This is a big upgrade to the Yuneec Breeze. Many more flight & camera options, longer flight time, longer flight range.
Awesome 🙏👍❤️🍺
No stabilization?
Hi guys! I have a Fairy. So far l've only flown indoors. I'd like to use a Swallow LiPo charger/discharger that I have laying around from the days when I was flying small rc-planes. Can anyone advice me as to what the connector plug on the drone is, the specs? Not the female connector on the battery pack but the male connector. I want to make an adapter cable with banana plugs on one end and the male drone battery connector on the other. Mostly for discharging, the Fairy standard charger is good enough for charging for now as I believe it balances the two cells according to the manual. Still, would be great to be able to use the Swallow charger for balanced charging as well, it giving some control and information of the charging.
Good video
Pretty slick for $200 CAN
They would certainly sell more ( in the US) if shipping from the US. I will very seldom order anything that ships from China - can take forever.
I'm sure someone will jump on that opportunity soon though (with all the good reviews).
did you say that it has a range of ONLY 150 meters.?
Hi Captain Drone is there a way to order this drone through a Canadian store ? I like all your review. Keep on Droning.
Normand Fortier Thank you. I don't you can purchase this at a Canadian store.
Look nice !! But the image isn’t stabilize...
Hi does the app has a vr mode?
I think the names pretty cool. it'd be the perfect way to appeal to the other 50 percent of the market. I'm thinking of getting that for my wife actually. it's cute and called a fairy
Hey bro, awesome review, great job. Looks like a fun one to have! Would you call it a "keeper?" (just curious...) I'm expecting one of these in for review soon on my channel, doing a little research, sounds like you really like it! BTW, you must live near me in SC, that same dark rain cloud seems to always show up (but only over me) whenever I go out to do a review! LOL!!! Thanks.
You can keep the rain clouds.... please. :)
The Fairy Drone is very impressive for what it is.
the lightning wants to say hello
From what I can see its a drone, its a selfie, like no other, this drone is a lot better than Tello. It's like the new improved tello2Pro
Nice. I would like to know, do the drones have VR? That's something I'd be interested in.
Most low cost drones ($300 or less) will have VR.
y do u need gps with 150 mtr limeted range
Excellent drone. No FAA required. I love it all except I wish the remote should have been included small LCD screen showing teleM data. Otherwise, it is the Winner.
Basic telemetry on the phone at least would have been nice.
Putting one in my bug out bag for recon.
u will need a solar panel to swat flys
Responder Zeero You should be able to get some awesome selfies during the apocalypse.
How does it perform indoors? Availability of additional batteries and propellers?
Propeller guard available?
Company support?
It does work indoors, although the instructions say not to fly it indoors. It does come with prop guards, although my version didn't. I have no idea about company support.
Hey Capt, in where I live this drone is called Brica B-pro5 Sky Explorer. I have one but I always have problem with "compass offsets too high". When it does that the drone won't take off and I have to take it to the service center to fix it. Do you have any idea why it happens? And how to fix it so I don't have to bring it to the service center all the time (cuz they wouldn't tell me why). Thank you! 😉
Sorry, I don't have this drone anymore.
that sucks you can't use rth if you use the remote only your phone...... there's gotta be a fix for that right?!?!
Website to buy in India!
Faity drone (Simtoo) had a campaign on Indiegogo with promised delivery in August 2018, not any backer has got it delivered yet so beware!
Yeah, very strange that the retails received drones before the backers did. But I guess that's business.
Hey Cap, what is that bag that you're using in the video?
It is an older knock off of this backpack. Made for the environment and carrying gear. amzn.to/2SftNUK
Can you do a comparison with the spark and this one.
The Spark is in a much different category than this drone. Spark has many more features and options and is more pro.
Why did it crash? Did u hit kill switch?
Thanks, Captain for another great review of a product I'd not heard of before. I added it to my cart but the coupon ZJW72 didn't work. "Please note your coupon does not exist." $150 is still a great price!
Ambrose Liao Thank you! I will check the discount code with TomTop tonight. If there is a new code it will show up tomorrow.
Coupon code should work now, however I'm told the price is already discounted so the coupon savings is around $3.
does it use 2.4 ghz wifi or does it need 5 ghz don't want to buy something & not be able to fly it have fun RCing
i think it uses 2.4 for control of the drone but 5g for video, i don`t actually since i`ve only just got mine and have yet to actually use it outside, it rained all day so i could not fly it.
I am wondering, do they make a drone that is TRULY quiet. I am looking for one I can fly that is silent for indoor flight during my kids' school functions.
Not really, all drones create noise (the noise is caused by the props spinning fast and pushing air).
Can you extend the range with a wifi extender like people do with the DJI tello?
Probably.
