    The Bugs12 is solid. I still enjoy flying mine. Yes no 2-3 axis gimble, but EIS provides sufficient stability, paired with Tripod mode and it's really decent. This was only $133 on Amazon for over a year. Finally sold out. I bought 2 at that price for a backup. Range is solid for a wi-fi quad.

    I've gotten hung up on gimbals ---- ideally 3-axis, but at least 2-axis. Since I'm trying to stay under $250, that has really limited my selection. Is it that important of a feature? It seems to make sense in theory, but are some of these non-gimbal drones good enough in the video department, where they are worth considering?

    I believe that it's pretty possible for the bugs 12 to be used in some sorts of professional demands. Some times I think that there is a artificial effort to prevent people from using such a drone professionally. What exactly is "no professional" in bugs 12 footage?

    • @HalfChrome

      I’d say the jerky movements, uneven stabilization, distortion and lack of range limit this drone. If you want to use this professionally go for it but there are better tools for the job.

    For a bit of comic relief; page 6 of the manual shows 13 different combinations of LEDs on the drone, for everything from poor compass, 1/6 voltage remaining, 1/8 remaining. Front green, rear double red blink at 1.5 seconds. Flash 3x slow, flash yellow 2x fast, etc. etc. It's hysterical; by the time you looked up the light codes the drone would be in a tree. They even put a sticker with 2 corrected blink colors/patterns on the chart, lest you confused barometer fail with optical flow failure or something. LOL
