Thanks for this review! As someone who's interested, but on the fence, this video pointed out a lot of concerns and things to think about before dropping the $500.
I had all of the same problems as you, plus more. I am getting a second unit, but my expectations are not high. Too bad, but their Gladius is a bit better.
Wow, for $500 it seems like forcing their branding on your vid pretty obnoxious. Thank you for the informative review. I will wait for a bit more competition in this field before I take the "plunge". Thank you.
I recently purchased a Mavic mini and love it! Great channel and this video made me realized that we live in the same city which is cool. Keep up the good work. Subscribed!
Hey Ben I’ve been watching for a long time and I love you electric personal vehicle videos. I saw that you did a video on the zero 8 and 9 scooters. Would you ever do a review on the zero 10 or 10x?
I just want to say on your camera review videos the bit rate is very very unsteady not a huge deal just makes it difficult interpreting the difference between them even on your other videos to it’s hard to see just how well the cameras are because it’s just very blurry but other than that the editing is amazing!
Not sure why they can't put a screen over the motor grates? I get it that it might not provide as much water flow but still?? And most underwater cameras don't give as wide a field of view. It distorts more underwater and lets in less light so in dirty or night viewing you can't see as far even if you have lights on it.
I bought mine a while ago and it was just fine you may need to calibrate the level or the accelerometer also tie a rope to the buoy so it doesn’t float a way to far
You said they sell remote controls for these. I might be interested in one as it'd most certainly be easier to control it while connecting it to something like a chrome book. Where can I get one?
I use an Ipad 7th gen with a waterproof case. It works fine. Same issues as you on my Pixel 4. I agree with everything in your review. It should be better for the price.
I won’t be buying one anytime soon it seems like a lot of trouble trying to make it work properly nice video though thanks.i forgot to say the should put some finer mesh over the motors
By the time it's finally working correctly, whups, the one hour battery is dead. Needs extra batteries or a bigger one. I'm not driving or taking a day for 1 hour of use. And three hours to charge a one hour battery? Is it just me?
As cool as they look, i can see the software problems already. Like what happens when the devs stop supporting the app ? then your looking at a 500 bucks of paper weight un able to turn on. Its happaned before with air based drones.

That's good to hear I'm not alone. Thanks for sharing
At least we know its not the water in your states. Congrats on 100k Russ!
One of the coolest effin videos I've seen on RUclips in a while. Screw iPhone comparisons. This is where it's at. :-)
I hope it was fun to watch - thanks!
6:08 even the drone is agreeing
All the other users including myself are thrilled about this lovely ROV. so it must be you.

love ur honest reviews!
It's only a clear picture if the water is like Miami Beach if not it's in really no good
I love my dory. Never had his problems

Awesome been watching you since 2015
Wow, thanks!
Glad you got it working again. I would love to see more video and footage with this one.
Yay I'm so excited something different for you to review instead of iPhones and GoPro cameras thanks for that.
1:08 That's a Betaflight boot up sound! Is this ting seriously running the same software as my FPV drone?😅
always Giving Best review . Thanks sir
love from Pakistan
Hey Ben I’ve been watching for a long time and I love you electric personal vehicle videos. I saw that you did a video on the zero 8 and 9 scooters. Would you ever do a review on the zero 10 or 10x?
You sound like Jack McBrayer haha 🤗 great review thanks!

I cam as so the notification popt up😂😀😂
Notification squad! 💪
That one screw is a T6 security
You’re the first out of hundreds that have said bad things about this
I have the dory controller. Very good system. I used an LG G7 phone. It worked perfect.

Very interesting, hope to see some better products on this area in the future! Thanks for the review
i need this for lake tahoe or crater lake in oregon or the other deep crystal clear lakes!
best tech youtuber
Great video, thank you, good water drone idea, but cable too fat
Thanks for watching
Is the longest cable really only 15m for this?
Thanks for sharing. I got my motor jamed today on my first day, and what size of key you use for the special screw? Thanks
Fisherman? I love fishing! I've cought a 3 pound bass down at the Edgewater lake
Yea they have some nice sized stuff in there
@@AuthenTech granted they are stocked there still fun to catch
The problem with stones in the motor is common and a tool comes with the ROV to take care of them without taking the drone apart.
aahhh if anything fails.....read the instruction book :-))
You said they sell remote controls for these. I might be interested in one as it'd most certainly be easier to control it while connecting it to something like a chrome book. Where can I get one?
I think those are for the higher end models? I'm not sure, I never got to test one
Wow I like your cool bike what make and model is that
I use an Ipad 7th gen with a waterproof case. It works fine. Same issues as you on my Pixel 4. I agree with everything in your review. It should be better for the price.
The thumbnail looks like a old Lamborghini if you picture it
Ben, like your videos as usual! Interesting and helpful~
I appreciate that!
Not related to this video but I would love to see you compare the GoPro to a SjCam. Great channel, thanks for the content :)
Thanks for the request
ben anafi or the dji mavic mini i have the spark rn and loving it
Cool video
Chasing dory or gladious mini which do you prefer?
I want an underwater drone, but their not quite ready yet
A compass on it that would show up on the screen is an absolute necessity
I won’t be buying one anytime soon it seems like a lot of trouble trying to make it work properly nice video though thanks.i forgot to say the should put some finer mesh over the motors

Cuanto dura la bateria donde lo compraste no lo vendes Saludos
The bit is called a, "tamper proof torqs".
Super cool 👌
Cheers!
@@AuthenTechThanks 🥂
Thanks for the review. I now need a new toy. lol
I think I'd pass on that one. Thanks for sharing.
As cool as they look, i can see the software problems already. Like what happens when the devs stop supporting the app ? then your looking at a 500 bucks of paper weight un able to turn on. Its happaned before with air based drones.
Something new
In India how to purchase drone
Wow stereo sound. That’s rare in a youtube video
Awesome video
What happened to the dji osmo pocket and gopro hero 8 comparison?Video still coming?
Coming...
Reminds me of that robot from Flubber lol
Haha, true! 👌
$150 to $300 tops is what that product should be priced at. Then again its a very niche product so they inflate it 400-2000% on these products.
I came from TikTok
Not sure if you'd recommend it when it FAILED on the second outing? hahahahahaha Now that's funny!!!
Man im just waiting for Dji to make a underwater drone god dang it. They make such better products and for usually a lot cheaper.
Can the footage be stable ?
I don't think so
POV: you came from watching the tik tok
Haha, thanks for stopping by
Disorientated is not a word.
In my opinion 500 dollar drone, most commonly are double the price so you get what you pay for
Not worthy for this price. Bad image quality in full HD and material also don't look impressive
Ok numbe1
Thanks.. I was interested in the concept so searched and found this.. I'll pass.
Huh
To be honest the drone water ots not worth 500€ very expesive for what you getting , video quality i didn't like so far and the long range distance to
You should probably go leave them a review on amazon because they have 5 stars somehow and I was not impressed at all
First!
Why do they all talk like that
Great video 👍 ... BAD Dory 👎
Thanks, Maha!
HeIIo Iike 334 Bro very good 🤤😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍🎁🎁🎁🎁🎁🤗🤗
Off tik tok 🤣🤣😂
😘😘😀
First
Get what you pay for. :(
Is this a chinese product😂😂
Maybe but then again, what's not made in China?
@@kabulbolan American made stuff. Like in the future.
