Man I don't understand why the manufacturer keeps using these horrible cameras on these cheap drones... a descent quality camera is still dirt cheap. This is just awful.
U said it right there cheap drones will have cheap stuff on it putting cheap stuff makes it a cheap drone so more affordable u want good quality? it won't be cheap
Obviously must not know much about drones expensive shit goes on expensive drones cheap shit goes on cheap drones plus you can't run good quality camera without having good receiver good sender you know it then makes your old this part is so cheap into oh wow it's $100 extra to add a good camera
And it's not even the crappy wifi atena it's because those thing doesn't record locally on an sd card but stream directly to your phone thus make it the most crappy quality you ever see, oh, the camera prob have a bad sensor too so that's why those look so bad
I'm interested in this little drone sir, a couple of questions if I may. Can you fly it with the phone and what performance is it like? An what is flight time per battery? An lastly what's the operating range? Lol, I'm green as grass abt drones.....love your clear advice an appreciate your honest reviews sir. Respect from the uk
The image from the camera is quite clear, however the bright sunlight has washed out the colours so a recording will need colour correction in software.
Thanks for your optical flow explanations. I have the C186 helicopter made by RC ERA and it is very similar. Mind you the ERA GB version has no optical flow and yet it performs about the same here. I have an Eachine E120 on order which is essentially the same but with optical flow so I'll be interesting to compare the two. I'm not hoping for much after seeing your video. 🙂but still fun little machines.
@@brucemeyer2481 Funny you should say that. I just got my E120 with OF and like you find little improvement. It does hover itself without drifting too much but when moving no real difference. I'm just putting a video up now as it happens. Thanks for your comment.
Less power required to fly a helicopter (compared to a quadcopter) because of much more efficient rotor blades. Thus longer flight time for a given battery power. And airplanes have even greater efficiency/flight time.
It's cute. Not close to being a ' clone' Seems like just about any other electrical Cheapo quad or drone. You're only going to get so much for what ya pay. This has a unique shape.
try rolling sphere quad copter sphere shield drone, yes designed to roll on the ground like a wheel with minimal energy usage, rotor powered sphere wheel
No it does not. The drone transmits a WiFi signal, without any internet. However, the signal does contain the drone's video. This video can be viewed with the app. But you must first connect your phone to the WiFi signal before opening the app. You do it the same way as connecting to home WiFi, no password is needed.
@@Quadcopter101 Exactly my point. It is obviously not a clone (as that implies a 1:1 copy) but more a (cheap super-sized, some what) lookalike. It might even be the first model in RC where the real thing is actually smaller than the model. 2:1 scale 😂
@@shakeymikesadventures6793 That might be a good idea. That actually might make the helicopter more stable. It seems to wander a bit, not only in hover, but while flying it in forward flight.
This and the Eachine E110 are the first toy drones that I've seen that have it. That's why I was interested in reviewing it. And I just tried it in my basement by taping a small piece of painters tape over the pinhole. It did reduce the uncontrolled wandering, making it more easier for me to fly it in the basement. But I'm not going to do a video on it as I have a few other drones that I need to review first.
That controller is designed to accept a phone holder, the base of which pops over that stubble fake antenna looking protuberance on top of the xmtr. I've seen that exact xmtr and it's phone holder included with a couple cheap rtf fixed wing kits. Pretty scuzzy for them not to have included this $0.50 part.

Good job, love your drone, model plane, and helicopter review videos. Recommend to fill in the business consulting email address in the RUclips profile.
Ah, I knew there was a country out there that made all drones with a camera (even toys) to require registration. Most of the world isn't that strict though.
It's not a real spy drone. It's a toy helicopter in the shape of a military drone. It's still useful for its intended purpose of helping beginner's in learning to fly RC.
Yeah, I guess I was mistaken. The Australians are evaluating it for use in their military. But the C128 seems to be a clone of the latest version of the FLIR Black Hornet.

Is it possible to pair this with a multi-protocol Tx, like the Jumper TPro 4in1 or Radiomaster Boxer 4in1?
@@herphermits Yes, supposedly with E129 main protocol. and Sub-Protocol is C186
@@Quadcopter101 Thanks! And will it extend the range? And is it also possible to solder in a better Rx, ELRS perhaps?
hey do you know if there's a way too rotate the camera up and down?
The military ,instead of buying 1 for $165,000 ,should buy $165,000 worth from Bang Good and have 239,00 of them .. see, i can be in the Government !
Worth 250 dollars lol. You can find similar ones at Walmart toy section
Have you thought about that perhaps they are and someone is making a packet of money!!!

Has any mini copter got a superior camera, or and range to the C128 - at any price within reason?

overnment of the United States: 150 million budget
Aliexpress: 15 dollars take it or leave it.🤑
RE the phone clip - did you check under the plastic insert? Another punter mentioned that the holder for 1 of the other models was hidden there. 😊
Yeah I found it. The holder is taped under the plastic.
Tip: if your drone dances like crazy land it and do calibration
And how to do calibration
It would be cool if they made a good version of this with GPS and 4k camera ?
Give them another year or two to work it out.
@@Quadcopter101 Any real advantages to having only the 2 blades? Seems like less weight overall
The image from the camera is quite clear, however the bright sunlight has washed out the colours so a recording will need colour correction in software.
Nice 👍 can you long range test the SJRC F11S 4K PRO
No, sorry. I can't legally do that. In the USA, we're not allowed to fly out of visual sight of the drone.
It’s nice. I fly fpv I got drones I’ve flown for 4 yrs my brushless motors are still going strong. but that helicopter motors is going burn out quick
why?
Next thing you know imma be spying on my friends
Built in Beeper? help find it..very Dark Colors...very Quiet Cool

I have the C186 and the E120, can't tell much of a difference, so much for the optical flow. 😁

Does this hover in place?
Which one better c128 or c186?
The clone doesn't cost 80 grand like the real one costs. 😅
And isn't worth the money either
Do helicopters have advantages over quadcopters?
Less power required to fly a helicopter (compared to a quadcopter) because of much more efficient rotor blades. Thus longer flight time for a given battery power. And airplanes have even greater efficiency/flight time.
that's pretty cool.. can't wait to see what they will look like in a few years 🤯
Where we can get the military version?
Great outdoor too

The problem is that the sphere is heavy, and also interferes with airflow over the propellers. It actually reduces efficiency and flight time.
@@Quadcopter101 does not have to be such
Thanks for sharing since i see this heli never call my attention but for beginners is ok......
can it be controlled by an app?
Does this require cell service to function?
For the video transmission I mean
No it does not. The drone transmits a WiFi signal, without any internet. However, the signal does contain the drone's video. This video can be viewed with the app. But you must first connect your phone to the WiFi signal before opening the app. You do it the same way as connecting to home WiFi, no password is needed.
@@Quadcopter101 Thank you much!
how much can it lift?
Not very much at all. If you're hoping that it can lift a camera, probably not.
What is the app called?
"Sentry" app by LCForever play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lcfld.sentry
I don't think clone means what you think it does.
Inconceivable!
At the bottom of the box is a phone holder
Wats the control range
How much 🤔🤔
Компактность при переноске - это единственное преимущество по сравнению с квадрокоптерами.
Hi buddy. How far can it travel ?
With video, out to about 70 meters. But you're going to have a hard time seeing this little helicopter past 40 meters.
Calling this a clone of a Black Hornet is like saying a school bus is a clone of a Formula 1 car.
Literally nothing is comparable here. 😅
The looks only. It is a toy helicopter meant to teach beginners how to fly. And at its price range, to expect anything more is unrealistic.
@@Quadcopter101 Exactly my point. It is obviously not a clone (as that implies a 1:1 copy) but more a (cheap super-sized, some what) lookalike. It might even be the first model in RC where the real thing is actually smaller than the model. 2:1 scale 😂
Have you ever tried to cover the optical flow camera on anything?
You mean use that pinhole camera to try to take an image or video?
@@Quadcopter101 no, just cover it with tape to see how it flys, I've never seen anyone try it. BTW glad to see you are still around.
@@shakeymikesadventures6793 That might be a good idea. That actually might make the helicopter more stable. It seems to wander a bit, not only in hover, but while flying it in forward flight.

That's basically unflyable unless you have eyes on it.

Cud the optical flow be bcos of the rotation of the earth?
Отличное видео для понимания, что вертолёт обычный 😀
Too bad it doesn’t do regular analog FPV video. That Wi-Fi / BT video is useless!
It does require registration as it has a camera on it!
What country are you in?
@@Quadcopter101 UK. The camera and 'FPV' negate the 250g rule!
Ah, I knew there was a country out there that made all drones with a camera (even toys) to require registration. Most of the world isn't that strict though.
The sad thing they didn't give the landing gears🥲
wasnt any landing gears to begin with
the black hornet nano is launnched from the hand and this is just a bigger version of the nano
80 meters range makes this utter junk unfortunately. Given you have to get 50 meters up to not be able to hear the bloody thing.
