    This model that I tested is the zero X swift & does NOT connect to your phone with an app. There is a newer model the zero X swift + (with wifi) that does advertise this this but I haven't tested. Apologies if this review is somewhat outdated.

      Can confirm this feature is included on the SwiftX+. handles on the controller extend downwards and you can slot in a phone using the app. The phone displays the drone camera signal.

    This was an amazing review, I found it very helpful, one thing you should know is that the drone must be over 3 meters high to perform a flip

      Thanks for watching, I appreciate it. That makes sense why the drone didn't flip when I tried it. Cheers

    there is an app you can connect to your phone which will let you view the camera live, and to do flips you need press the flip button then point the left joystick in the direction you want the drone to do the flip in

    Thanks for the review... I assume JB Hifi won't put knock-off products, but here I am just to be sure... Im started to doubt local market since 2019, there been increasingly "wish quality" product that have entered K-mart, Target etc... I used to buy electronics from local shop (not a private one) in 2017 most of them are top quality even if they are not a top brand...

    • @dazthejazz1640
      @dazthejazz1640 Год назад

      I got the swift + as a present a while back, and can't get it to just hover, as soon as it's up it takes off to the right on an angle at speed, utimately crashing if I don't hit the e stop button. Even tapping the right lever to stabilise fails. Not much fun at all.

    Hey how fast does the drone go? Is it fast and does it really reach 100m in range before disconnecting?

    • @BeforeYouBuyGuy
      @BeforeYouBuyGuy  3 года назад +2

      Tbh I only tested it in slow speed mode, I think it can go quite a bit faster but since I am very inexperienced at drone flying, I didn't want to crash it at the higher speed. I didn't measure out the full 100m range but at least 30-40m I had no issues with, after that I was losing line of sight anyway

      Its good value at this price. I'm really not sure what the top speed is, I don't even think this is advertised. There is a slow setting and a fast setting and when I was testing it out, I only used the slow setting since I am a drone n00b. Good Luck! let me know how you go with it if you end up buying

    50 minutes of charge for 8 minutes of flight and you can't watch the video live. No wonder I only paid $50 for it. I still feel cheated. I bought the Tello first for about $150 because the Zero X was out of stock. Tello is smaller and you can fly live video and about 15 minutes of flight with a 30 minute charge, much better.
