I love the picture quality on this. I was surprised. The live feed i talk about. But the obstacle thing did so i crash on my first time so have only driven it two times:) Going to use it to it break then buy a DJI:) Great video. P.S What drone do you recommend? One ordinary and one FPV drone for around 500 to 600 dollar each?:)
Thanks for all your reviews guys, and keeping it real. Please provide the data recording speed when you review video aircraft. I have found that the manufacturers provide mbps in their specs if they are proud of the specs, otherwise they don't list it. Since the recording speed is just as important as the stability, it would help me decide which drones to buy when all things are fairly equal. My gopro records at 30 mbps for 1080p, and that is probably the minimum for enjoyable video, at least for me. Thanks Jack!!!
What a schmuck! Does DJI pay you extra to run down good quality inexpensive drones? All the ZLL drone models are excellent products and you don't have to break the bank to own one. DJI drones are ridiculously overpriced. You do a great disservice to amateur drone pilots everywhere.
This was a GREAT video, that gave me the perspective that I was looking for. You really helped me understand what I am getting with this Max, and what I am not getting. The obstacle avoidance is obviously not worth it. If there is nothing in front of the drone, but it won't fly forward because there is something to the left or right of the drone, that is obviously too rudimentary and unsophisticated to be practical/useful. Just seems frustrating. The camera seems to be slightly better than the Pro 2, so it might be worth getting the MAX over the Pro just for the camera, and forget about the obstacle avoidance. Once again, GREAT video. I appreciate the honesty, openness, and transparency of the information provided.
Great video and review! Also wth is in the video just left of center when you are demonstrating The zoom at 10:00?? 🛸 someone should identify that 😁 great review videos man !!
I really like your review of drone and i love to drone.. but i wish i could buy.. but im very happy if i watch all your videos.. your my stress reliver lodi..
My first drone, and I must admit it's alot of fun learning to fly. My Part 107 is scheduled already, and a few jobs have popped up already as soon as I'm legal. Just photos, but the proceeds will get me a Mavic 2 by summer. Stoked to be entering into a new hobby !! Bob in CT
I had the Beast 2 Pro. Had being the key word. Great learner drone. Do you guys have the Potensic Dreamer Pro with the 4k 3 axis gimbal on the list to review? I have seen a couple of reviews but mostly the older version without the 3 axis gimbal. It looks...intriguing.
I was looking to purchase this Drone but after you keeping it real. What drone would you recommend for first time buyer with follow me mode, stable, and good camera/video?
Is there a way to use goggles with a F11Pro 4K ? adding one of those antenna's or plugging phone into goggles? I keep looking and asking, but all i get back is " it's wifi".
sg beast 3 with avoidance first drone bought so very much a greenhorn , the calibration is confusing do it few times till it works , not sure is you have to do it everytime you turn off or change battery . the arm function is testy flip n back and forth between remote arm app than it fires up but wont go up after several times it works , very confusing why it spins but wont take off. almost lost it to a lake hit Return home on app it went opposite direction thought it was going back to to china once it flys it fun but very confusing also it drops altitude on its own drive me nuts any advise much appreciated
Greetings from Greece. I was ready to byu it from a friend..and i couldn connect the wifi to my phone...redmi s2 of xiaomi,any idea why it didnt connect?Nice video Thanks..!!
@@HalfChrome NO...its b g n and other device of mine is a b g n n . Thank you very much for your fast answer..take care..and keep the good work that you do.
Hi brother how are you doing today. I love your RUclips videos. I have the beast pro 3 obstacle avoidance Drone. I see you mentioned that the obstacle avoidance sensor monitors front and sides. But my obstacle avoidance sensor goes a full 360 degrees and detects obstacles in reverse as well I think that is pretty cool 👍. I just wanted to let you know this feature. Thanks my brother 👍
I still think for the €152 I paid the F11 4k is the better drone. I may change my mind if it has the same toilet-bowl effect as you experienced. But for now it beats the Bugs 12 and 20, and this SG906 Max in every aspect.
Hi, IMO you were a little too hard on the SG906MAX. The SG906 MAX is a BUDGET drone. The obstacle avoidance does work, something not available in any other drone
Perhaps I'm a bit hard but I do believe they are on the right track. My gimbal doesn't move smoothly no matter how I move it, either via the phone or the button on the back. The good news is that budget drones are getting better.
Hi, i recently bought this drone and i'm having trouble connecting the HfunPro app to the drone. It says "failed to connect to aircraft" although the drone wifi is connected to my phone (xiaomi mi a1 and huawei p30pro). I curious, what app and phone do you use for this drone? Thanks🙏
@@FA-jj6zu i guess its XIL drone but marketed as ZLL SG Drone so it doesnt work with HfunPro app. Mine's work with XIL Pro app. Try other apps published by steven liu, a lot of his drone apps work for me
I have taken delivery of my SG906 MAX and have discovered that it will not record to the SD card only to the app. If I use the remote control to record photos or video it still goes to the app, not the SD card. Been in lengthy email exchange with the supplier who cannot offer a solution even though the say they have asked the "factory". Anyone else experienced this problem? Any suggestions would been welcome.
My 906 pro 2 would not record on micro SD card when I had a 64 gig Card in it It doesn't really say it anywhere in the very vague directions. But with some research It seems it only supports cards up to 32 GB I tried a 16 GB and it worked great Haven't tried a 32 GB yet But 64 definitely didn't work
@@acew280 yes I was aware that 64gb was not supported and the drone came with a 32Gb card. I have used a number of cards 32Gb and smaller with the same result.
Holy crap! That is the EXACT same drone as the EXO Drone X7 Ranger plus. I spent almost $500 on that thing through EXO because they claim to be an American company. I'm an idiot. I even upgraded to their Blackhawk model because I had to send the X7 Ranger Plus back because the WiFi module kept cutting out after only 3 flights with not even a hard landing. I should have just spent the money to get a DJI Air 2s
- Damn ! In Romania … I just bought this drone … 1700 de lei:4.58 ( $ ) … 371 $. ( 22 May 2024 ). Hmm, as those IPhone … here we pay 1 and 1/2 price than in USA.
It seems an after though the Obstacle Avoidance, and I guess that is why it such a good beginners drone, as it never gets more than 100 feet away. so no way you can lose it. :-) but I kid for the price, it would be a good starter. Fly Fun, Fly Safe Just Fly.
One man's opinion. He is obviousy a DJI man..., This UAV is meant for fun not for trying to operate as a pro film cameraman...dont think he mention the SD slot..the battery charging..Did he set the follow me up correctly...Capn Drone does it much better.
Hello, i am Maryo from Bucharest, Romania, i am 52 years old firefighter here...i want to ask you a fair advice for me...i am not a rich person....i need a drone for when i go on water with my stand up paddle, to do some videos and pictures with me paddling, as i dont have here any friends with stand up paddles around me...because here this sport is not so popular yet, we are in a former comunist country..and naah...so, please if you are kind to give me a good model to buy from Aliexpress, a drone with axis gimbal and obstacle avoidance or not, also with follow me mode, something 4k or 8k, etc...,..but something you think is good and realy worth the money for me...thanks in advance and i would apreciate your honest advice for me.
@@HalfChrome Thank you very much, sadly i see is an expensive one, i know DJI's are too expensive but also good ones...so your advice to me..not buying drones from Aliexpress...just wait and get a DJI, right?
@@HalfChrome I watched some youtube video reviews about the MJX Bugs 16 Pro B16 Camera Drone , seems nice...do you think i better wait until spring maybe come up something new or buy this one now?

I bought this for my first drone. Hope to use it as a learning step to get into drones.
That’s a great way to use this drone
I did the same. I didn't want to learn on a $1000 drone. By summer time I'll be ready for the Mavic 2.
Good idea
@@RideorDieDietoRide that's a good thought, I've had this about 2 months now and I am totally satisfied, I bought extra props though! :)

Sooooo for whatever class the mavic air 2 is in....what’s better than the MA2? Cause from I what I see...not one thing tops it!!
The Mavic Air 2 is great. I still prefer the Mavic 2 zoom or Evo II Pro 6K
I would like to add that sometimes when you press return gps button it flies higher instead of returning

@@HalfChrome too expensive for a first drone.
Yes let's all buy dji's and get the tattoo. Beginner drone. For beginners. For a good price.
This is a great first drone. Look out for people selling the exact same drone for more money. 150-200 is not bad for this lil system
I’m curious where you purchased yours? I only ever see them on eBay shipping out of China.
@@davecamp5491 Amazon has them

I dont know if someone is going to see this but if you do, is it possibe do fly the drone without the obstacle avoidance camera?

Wow I had the thing in my shopping cart and I decided to look at this video... Removed it from my cart just in time wheew!
It’s not bad. Just don’t expect too much from the obstacle avoidance.

It’s a solid option for $200
Hi want know f11s pro and sg906 max 1 which the best

which drone for less than 300 dollars can you recommend me
Mavic SE. 💯

so i tend between the sg906max and the f11pro 4k which of the two would you recommend
They are pretty similar. The Mini SE is leaps and bounds better. I’d suggest waiting and saving up for it.
You have to have 5G mobile to run it, you don't have to have 4G. Please let me know!
You need an AC protocol phone.
@@HalfChrome Ac protocol means don't understand plz
5G and 4G aren’t relevant. You phone needs to support the AC wifi protocol
