I really wanted one but the noise!!! I know you can block it out with the app but anyone is disturbed. Works really well though, amazing bit of gear Sandy
Fantastic bit of kit, the technology in such a small thing is staggering. I’ve used the tracking function on my mini 3 in the past, but the simplicity of this thing is very attractive.
That looks like it will be a real asset to your filming Sandy. Amazing technology, for the masses is available now. You can get some really interesting shots with that drones functions and it is very compact.
Excellent video Sandy!! Enjoyed this, glad to see you and your beautiful dogs out and about!! That drone is certainly a game changer, very cool… !! Footage coming in clear on this side of the pond 👍
Sandy you did this device so much justice they should have gave you another one for a give away.. Excellent Review especially dealing with the dogs and filming with the go pro all at the same time.. and you showed crashes .. they should've gave you 3....... Well done you 😉👍🏻
You're in pretty good shape, I'm happy to see you wearing the helmet on the bicycle. We had a weather man here in SW Florida fall off his bicycle, hit his head on the curb, died shortly after. Young guy in good shape. Hey, shit happens. You stay safe happy holidays.
Seeing you wearing that old hoodie made me go look for mine. Looks an interesting bit of kit, especially being so small and packable. thanks for sharing
A great video, thanks. I've actually bought one for myself, but haven't had the opportunity to try it out yet, so your educational will certainly make the first flight much less of a hassle. Cheers 👋
Hi, sorry, not yet. I've seen a few videos from other vlogers and they are getting great results, so I'm looking forward to taking mine away on a few trips to record our days out and marry that to one of the simple editing apps that are available now. I think its going to be fun.@@MarriedToTheKGB
I finally gave in and bought a drone Sandy...never thought I'd get one at 58. Have bought the Potensic Atom and am pretty sure the 4k camera on its 3 axis gimbal will get some good photos and video of the changing of the colours next autumn. Now to learn how to fly the darn thing 😂
That would appear to be a great addition to the filming equipment for making videos. I am pretty certain that you will find this very useful to film some of your outdoors adventures Sandy. It would probably do just fine out in the clearings in the deepest woodland areas even. Thanks for showing this very interesting piece of technology and giving us your thoughts Sandy. I am looking forward to your next video my friend (hot tent camping I believe you said?)
A good piece of kit to have in the armoury Sandy. Some of the sequences you film such as approaching a gate, opening the gate and then moving away from the gate, would seem to be a good application for the drone and a time saving for you. 😀
Hi Sandy. What a great review, I’m sure the company will be very pleased👍. You demonstrated how basically anyone can use this drone. Lovely to see you walking the “girls”. I watched your Hot Tent camping video before this one and thought what excellent drone footage you had not knowing that you had a new toy.😄. Take care, hugs for your doggies, pat on the back for you lol 💕💕. Judy🇨🇦
Good honest review Sandy. I watched another review and I thought they said it did have obstacle avoidance but maybe it just gave the impression of that. I agree the tech is off the scale these days. A bit scary! For me as just a home movie maker, it's too rich in price but if I had an active channel like yours, I would save my pennies for one for sure.
That did blow my mind in regards to what it is capable of bro. I guess the next thing out will be a tiny drone you can have a conversation with. Awesome video too. Safe travels. Ken.
Great through review Sandy, though not sure about the noise. A bit pricey but you get a lot of tech for your dosh. Looking forward to some great footage in future vids 👍
It would seem these drones are becoming better & better. I think it will allow you to get a great picture without the risk of a more expensive being lost or damaged. Very nice indeed Sandy. You think a few years back we had nothing like so readily available. Think your may like one for his channel 👍
Hi Andy, It won't replace my DJI Mini2 but it can do some things better like follow me and dolly track, really impressive and a great asset for RUclipsrs
I’ve seen a few of these now Sandy , deffo easier to operate than my mini dji pro . As you said maybe not the best footage but ok for what we need it for . Wonder if they will send me one to review 😜 and clearly crashable as the props are well protected 👍
The camera is OK Dave and if you can do some in post editing you can saturate the colours etc but it is a very tiny camera so there will be compromises. Generally I really like it and will use it quite a bit. It is so easy to use
Carmen the bigger dog has been camping already a couple of times but this time of year (shooting season) the land owner would rather the dogs didn't accompany me
What a fantastic gadget drone, you could put some colourful transfers on which would not weigh much so you can find it? Or orange or yellow nail polish
A nice piece of thech there Sandy. This should allow you to eliminate some of the time consuming set ups you needed to make. I would add some hearing protection for close use.
How about putting some reflective 3M tape on the outer edges and top and bottom. Then if it does crash, with a torch, you might find it quicker. I like the protected blades, as I’ve seen a few YTers drones with broken blades when they hit trees and break the expensive blades.
Looks like a neat bit of kit. Some masking tape and a tin of brightly coloured spray paint around the rotor cage should help make it more visible. Not sure a like the high pitched whine of it though. But quite impressive and easy to use.
You can't get away from the higher pitched whine, it's just physics, those small props have to spin fast but it is quiet, the gopro camera makes it sound louder than it actually is, from a few feet away it is almost inaudible
Amazing bit of tech. Definitely needs a puff of fluorescent pink or yellow paint on it! Impressed to see the dogs ignoring it (o: What long way we’ve come from the first drones that you built. Crikey.
It's ok for filming me on the Himalayan Martyn as it can do 15mph :) No probs keeping up with me. I once rode up Hardknott pass and I think thats about as fast as I went in places
Interesting little Gadget Sandy, I'd like to see more ham radio content, and also perhaps you'd get a ham radio outlet sponsorship? New radio perhaps or morse key? Food for thought, But i'd really like to see more ham radio content. 73 de G4UNB
Hi Sandy. I had seen this gizmo a while and as really interested in your review. Just for personal use, I think it looks ideal for me. Your review has settled it, so I have ordered one. Hoverair were sensible to send you one, for 👍!
Ah Mr J, watched the first part on 700 views, came back and it was on 1800! Nicely done 😉. You will have HOURS of entertainment with that beasty, and it might even achieve the incredible feat of improving your drone-work 😂 P.S. Your cycling videos this year have been truly inspirational, and it's been a pleasure to watch you and Dave enjoy the road/track/trail - hope the ribs no longer nag: Atb.
@@WiltshireMan Very pleased to hear it. With it becoming frosty on Saturday, looks like winter is finally here, and looking forward to your rides (maybe a ride out together one day?) Stay safe Sir 👌.
after watching your video I went straight to the link to get one , would be ideal for paramotor training videos . Sadly stopped in my tracks when I saw the price !! Amazing technology but too expensive for me I’m afraid
i had a look at the new himalayan and watched a few reviews especially the itchy boots one as she ridden your model quite a bit too, id say you should upgrade if you can afford too, will come with warranty etc and it seems to be a much better bike but still has the character of the old bike, you only live once and id prefer to see that on the channel than a vstrom upgrade as i think the himalyan suits you much more, that 40hp will come in handy when you need to overtake or use the motorways plus the suspension is much better with higher clearance and it looks great
Yes the Himalayan does suit me better but if I had to buy the new Himalayan it would me having to use finance and thats something I don't want to do any more. The new bike is a real fine machine by the looks of it
Hi Sandy, its amazing how drones have developed. I have been looking at reviews and I am tempted to get one, as it would be great do some videos when cycling . You certainly put it through it’s paces, I can see you using it often seeing how easy it is to use. The fact that you can use your phone for the audio would be a great help. Just mind lakes or you might be in trouble again. 😭😭
No good in winds Gary but often you can find a sheltered spot behind some rocks or in a woodland so I think the opportunities to use it are far higher than you might imagine. Perhaps not on the summit of Pen Y Fan though:)
Thats a marvelous drone Sandy , i think it will be very handy for some filming . How does the drone know to follow you , you must carry a homing device with you so it knows where you are otherwise someone else walks past and the drone may follow them . Great review Sandy :-)
I was wondering if drones could be used like a tripod the other day on @wheretonowlilu where she'd showed all the behind the scenes stuff, and along you came with this 🙌 It makes perfect sense, and they've caught the major drone manufacturers napping with the pre-programmed features - I'm sure they'll catch up. It did well for having no collision avoidance. The noise is an issue - I'm really interested in how your dogs behaved, when they first heard it ?
![SahBabii - Viking [Official Music Video]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/D37cL92JX0I/mqdefault.jpg)
What an awesome piece of film making kit.
Hi Sandy. You could use some reflective or bright coloured sticky tape to make it more visible, if downed.
Hey Sandy,they should bring back Tomorrow’s World and have you as a presenter,another excellent review 👍
Wow what a nice peice of kit . Now one for Christmas 🤞🤞🤞👍👍👍
The gadgets today are incredible. Great review Sandy. The following mode on the cycle was very cool!
I really wanted one but the noise!!! I know you can block it out with the app but anyone is disturbed. Works really well though, amazing bit of gear Sandy
The noise isn't too bad Graham, from a few feet away it's almost inaudible
@@WiltshireMan Really, I may have to investigate a little more haha.
Looks a very useful camera Sandy. Thank you for the demonstration. Stay Safe.
Clever little thing 👍👌
Amazing bit of kit, thanks for showing it. My mind is suitably boggled.
looks like a great peace of kit sandy
Absolutely brilliant! Thank you for sharing this Sandy 👍🏻👍🏻😎
Being able to use the audio from the drone and eliminate the sound of the drone is pretty great. Thanks, Sandy. 🙂👍
That's a great bit of kit, I'm sure you will be able to work wonders with that.
Great little drone
An amazing bit of kit very smart I wouldn’t mind one my self ,
It's a very good invention Chris, I think it will be very useful for me and the RUclips channel
How brilliant is that!
Now that looks like something even I could operate. Nice vid and excellent demo - thank you.
I have used it in all my recent videos, it's a handy bit of kit:)
Fantastic bit of kit, the technology in such a small thing is staggering. I’ve used the tracking function on my mini 3 in the past, but the simplicity of this thing is very attractive.
What a great camera 👍🏼
Love it and you do it justice well done
This drone seems much more practical for my needs then the considerably more expensive one I tried to use when recording for my youtube videos.
It would be a great asset for many I'm sure Lonnie, If you get one perhaps get a black one, your sure to lose a white one in the snow:)
Thats bonkers! Very cool.
Nice bit of kit.
Sounds funny when it lands in the bushes 🙂
Thanks Ekhaat, Glad to see you here :)
My next Christmas request Sandy, thanks for review, very very helpful. Harry
Absolutely incredible technology , christ !. Too much for my little brain though . Nice video again Sandy.
What a great little drone, really neat! Can't wait to see it used on future videos.
That selfie drone is brilliant. Thanks for sharing Sandy!
Looks like a great little drone Sandy,
They evolving so fast and getting better and better
I am actually impressed by this pocket drone!
Stay warm on your next camp - looks chilly there!
Stay safe and healthy!
It's getting colder now Dan, forcast sub zero for the week ahead and possible snow for some. Hot tent camping time:)
That looks like it will be a real asset to your filming Sandy. Amazing technology, for the masses is available now. You can get some really interesting shots with that drones functions and it is very compact.
Many thanks for review..a great performing little drone with superb quality footage..even I could understand how to use it lol..Best wishes
Outstanding!
Blimey that is a fantastic thing -I am in complete envy !
It's a wonderful piece of kit James, very handy
Great testing and excellent review Sandy. Thank you very much.
Excellent video Sandy!! Enjoyed this, glad to see you and your beautiful dogs out and about!! That drone is certainly a game changer, very cool… !! Footage coming in clear on this side of the pond 👍
Thanks Amante, it is a very clever device thats for sure

Thanks for showing us your new camera drone, it looks so easy to use🎬
Its extremely easy to use Kerry. I think it will be a useful tool for me
What an amazing gadget thanks for that review I'm off to their site for a further look see.
You're in pretty good shape, I'm happy to see you wearing the helmet on the bicycle.
We had a weather man here in SW Florida fall off his bicycle, hit his head on the curb, died shortly after. Young guy in good shape. Hey, shit happens. You stay safe happy holidays.
Very sad news about that young guy :(
Seeing you wearing that old hoodie made me go look for mine. Looks an interesting bit of kit, especially being so small and packable. thanks for sharing
It's still a great Hoodie Oz
Waiting for mine to arrive.
Interesting this Sandy . Very nicely demonstrated and can only see this could really help guys like yourself creating your superb vlogs.
I think it willbe useful Pete, like having an extra pair of hands:)
A great video, thanks. I've actually bought one for myself, but haven't had the opportunity to try it out yet, so your educational will certainly make the first flight much less of a hassle. Cheers 👋
It's so easy to use, just be careful you don't lose it if it crashes into undergrowth. My black drone is hard to see, should have got a white one!
hi have you any videos of it yet? I was thinking of getting one
Hi, sorry, not yet. I've seen a few videos from other vlogers and they are getting great results, so I'm looking forward to taking mine away on a few trips to record our days out and marry that to one of the simple editing apps that are available now. I think its going to be fun.@@MarriedToTheKGB

I've never heard of a Potensic, I'll have to take a look
Amazing devices aren't they? The sequence you have recorded near the start of the video is fabulous. 👍
And no skill on my part either!
@@WiltshireMan you're far to modest Sandy, we know the magic takes place in the edit 😃👍
Hi Sandy
Looks like a realy useful drone.
Great it comes with a spare battery and I definitely would love to get hold of one.
I want to get one.
that's very impressive.ATB
That would appear to be a great addition to the filming equipment for making videos. I am pretty certain that you will find this very useful to film some of your outdoors adventures Sandy.

Hi Judy
It's quite an amazing piece of kit and something I can see myself using quite a bit.
Carmen and Zeta didn't mind it at all:)
A great tool for an outdoors RUclipsr. Excellent review, thank you Sandy!
Mind blowing!!!
An awesome new RUclipsr tool! And only 375 quid, use it once and by a new one!
Asbolutely
sorta wish i was able to purchase one of these at this time. but, will put this on my list of things to add to my wants with the channel.
Good honest review Sandy. I watched another review and I thought they said it did have obstacle avoidance but maybe it just gave the impression of that. I agree the tech is off the scale these days. A bit scary! For me as just a home movie maker, it's too rich in price but if I had an active channel like yours, I would save my pennies for one for sure.
500 euros… phew.. glad you got one for free .. well done Sandy… .love your videos 😊
I’m on the fence for one of these for my channel Sandy, good to get your perspective. Thanks for sharing
Wait and see how things go with it, It's a very good asset to have but not cheap
@@WiltshireMan agree it’s a expensive toy 🧸
That looks fun and useful.
Hi Jim,
I think it will be a useful addition to the filming gear:)
Thats my Christmas pressie sorted
Not cheap Ralph, about the price of a Gopro I think
That did blow my mind in regards to what it is capable of bro. I guess the next thing out will be a tiny drone you can have a conversation with. Awesome video too. Safe travels. Ken.
These things are getting clever Ken
Great Video.
It’s a nice gadget, impressive tech, but for me it is way too expensive.
Thanks for showing 👍🇨🇭
Very interesting 👍
Great bit of kit to have for the channel Sandy wouldn't mind one myself atvb Jimmy 😎😎👍👍
Its a handy piece of kit for the likes of us Jimmy, not cheap though, about same price as a Gopro
@@WiltshireMan ye just been checking the cost I don't use my drone in the woods but would definitely consider using this 👍

What a fantastic gadget drone, you could put some colourful transfers on which would not weigh much so you can find it? Or orange or yellow nail polish
Nail polish may be a great option Donna, I may just do that
A nice piece of thech there Sandy.
This should allow you to eliminate some of the time consuming set ups
you needed to make. I would add some hearing protection for close use.
Cool little gadget! I think my dogs would go drone hunting though!
LOL Yes there is a chance some dogs may want to hunt the little drone, still a worthwhile aid for the video maker. Seasons Greetings
@@WiltshireMan Thank you, you too, happy Christmas.

Have you seen the "bump cap inserts" plastic inserts for your ball cap. Good for minor impacts, but definitely worth a few dollars.
after watching your video I went straight to the link to get one , would be ideal for paramotor training videos . Sadly stopped in my tracks when I saw the price !! Amazing technology but too expensive for me I’m afraid
About the same price as a Gopro James, but the video quality isn't quite as good but still usable
i had a look at the new himalayan and watched a few reviews especially the itchy boots one as she ridden your model quite a bit too, id say you should upgrade if you can afford too, will come with warranty etc and it seems to be a much better bike but still has the character of the old bike, you only live once and id prefer to see that on the channel than a vstrom upgrade as i think the himalyan suits you much more, that 40hp will come in handy when you need to overtake or use the motorways plus the suspension is much better with higher clearance and it looks great

Drones and water don't mix well Charles. It's not cheap, about the same price as a Gopro, but the footage and scenes it can capture are impressive
New rules for drones 2023 from the CAA you might want to have a read up, as being just registered is not enough now for the sub 250 gram drones.
I have been keeping my eye on these I think they are pretty amazing, but with the high winds we have been having not too sure how much I could use it.
No good in winds Gary but often you can find a sheltered spot behind some rocks or in a woodland so I think the opportunities to use it are far higher than you might imagine. Perhaps not on the summit of Pen Y Fan though:)
Thats a marvelous drone Sandy , i think it will be very handy for some filming . How does the drone know to follow you , you must carry a homing device with you so it knows where you are otherwise someone else walks past and the drone may follow them . Great review Sandy :-)
Its all down to the camera and some fancy AI I think, no homing device
That's cool, almost makes we want to start Youtubing again! 😃
Hope your keeping OK Paul
All good here sir! Love to the family.
It’s bloomin clever isn’t it.
Its a good bit of kit I reckon
Hey Sandy when are you doing a hot tent càmp?
Very very soon :)
Can you save the video to your camera roll ?
It saves it to an internal storage area Fog, you have to plug it into the PC to download the files
Whatever will they think of next!?
I was wondering if drones could be used like a tripod the other day on @wheretonowlilu where she'd showed all the behind the scenes stuff, and along you came with this 🙌
It makes perfect sense, and they've caught the major drone manufacturers napping with the pre-programmed features - I'm sure they'll catch up.
It did well for having no collision avoidance.
The noise is an issue - I'm really interested in how your dogs behaved, when they first heard it ?
This was pretty much the dogs first exposer to the drone sound
Wow....loud innit or are drones that loud?...scary for the bunnies etc etc.
'Ull' east yorkshire.
It's not loud it was just that the camera mic was 2 ft away from it. You can barely hear it at 20 ft away
What’s the difference between Dolly track and hover?
