- DJI may have made the best beginner drone. While it's capable of Freestyle and Cinematic flying, I think its best purpose is getting new pilots in the air!

She loves you dude, those smiles dont lie
Drew... turn the sound off and watch her expressions... Every girls reaction when we speak drone speak. 🤗 very nice production bro. She enjoyed it though. Best thing ; she wants to fly again. With you. Best day ever. Well done. 🤘🏻
"Every girl" is not entirely correct. There are girls who'll be more interested the more you speak drone speak. Believe me - I'm one of them.
"Are you nervous?", "Well, no." - words of someone who didn't shell out $1,200 for their first drone ;-)
What does that mean? i said the same thing when i got on my sportsbike for the first and it was way more than 1,200 dollars and my life could be at risk as well. You gotta be confident why be nervous just because something is expensive you can always make more that's why people have jobs
@@redleader6144 hmm bike doesn’t get totalled easily when crashed. This drone, a simple fall onto concrete from 3 ft high with weight of 768g can be devastating.
@@kibbycabbit Are you kidding? Drop an yamaha r1 on its side and farings are gone, and 2 grand in the hole to replace them
@@redleader6144 ahh motorcycle.. was thinking of mtn. bicycle.. for the similar price point.
It's 1200 for the combo.
The googles alone cost like 560$.
the best beginner drone for dji's purse yes.....
We need more Ashley in your vids! Got to get her into flying bandos
Agreed
Would be really cool to see the progress too, if the whole journey is documented. I assume she'd get pretty good, pretty fast, given who she'd have for some tutelage
Shes more manly than you lol
Sure!
Her makeup looks better xD
Once I get this, I wouldn't let anyone touch it. That shiz expensive yo!
"things i'll do for love"
Ashley at the end was just holding the taco and looking at it like "can I eat it already?" xD
Yes , yes , and yes. I had no idea about this fpv world, fall in love watching this videos. Got mi DJI as mi first drone ever , spend 15 hours in velocidrone and couple more in the built in sim. A week later I’m flying in acro mode … thx guys !!
My husband sent this video to me because he wants me to fly and his setup intimidates me lol. I’ll definitely be getting this soon! Also, our son wants you to know that he loves your videos!
Good for you. You don't even know ;-}> I think flying fpv is right up there with shooting guns, riding motor cycles and sex. I built my first one and I never stopped smiling.
You can tell Ashley is a true pilot at heart because she went right for the trench run under the covered walkway.
I wish everyone would stop pushing the "beginner drone" narrative. This is way too expensive and fragile of a drone for a first time FPV pilots.
You would be surprised how many people are willing to spend a lot of money just to not be intimidated by technical complexity. See Apple products.
I agree, it is very expensive for a beginner drone, normal fpv quads can be fixed easier.
Yes I agree I’ve only started my fpv journey I’ve crash at least 7 times I can say if I tried to fly this it would be a waste of money and time getting it fixed it’s not fun for the money over €1,300 to me who has spend under €150 I’m having more fun learning about the mechanics of it
@@Sam-yb2bv I had the chimera7 n lost it on first test flight line of sight. I went straight up in the air n gone. Never did find it.
I fly real FPV drones and DJI camera drones and I gotta say is it really that expensive for what you get? The goggles are half the cost and you want those anyway if you're getting into FPV. A good 5" HD BNF with goggles, controller, charger, GoPro, and batteries is $1300 or more. I myself prefer more traditional FPV drones but I can see why certain people would want the more polished but limited package.
"were you just celebrating?"
"nooooo" 👁👄👁 LMAOO
She knows him so well lol
how happy was his face when she said she wanted to fly again , always nice when you can share something with a friend/partner and enjoy it together still on the fence with this but slowly edging towards it slowly into my first fpv
Drew.. you couldn't have been more right with this video.. I started fpv with the DJI fpv and got my feet wet with that.. After 3 months of flying that with 2 crashes and 1 broken arm, I finally just purchased my 1st 5" quad.. I actually bought your latest syliner which I absolutely love.. Thanks for all the great tips.!!
So far the first reviewer who didn't break it :)
10:25 is a pretty great moment. DJI just stomped on FPV's learning curve.
Think about how drastically different Ashley's previous experiences have been compared to this. It's night and day.
Ashley should have her own channel about something because she does well in front of the camera, has a entertaining personality, and overall seems to a be a good sport. Good video guys!
I believe she does have her own channel with art stuff

I want to say a lot of people are missing one advantage to this drone. People like myself that have been in the air for about 2-3 years but have kids/family/work and can't keep up on always updating firmware and making sure everything is in sync to fly "perfect". This drone basically will fly right out of the box without much effort with software. One of the hardest components with FPV (besides the build) is downloading the software and setting it up (that's why I liked Flightone). This provides someone people who can only fly for a couple of hours a month... a smooth way to get in the air and toss it into acro mode and zip it for a few minutes (and remember the glory days). I'm hoping in time they can improve acro mode and settings to be tweaked to remove propwash, rates, and other settings. It's quite obvious watching your videos for so many years that this drone has some weight to thrust issues since you tosses it and couldn't stabilize the drone smoothly coming out. But those who aren't silky smooth like you, won't care. That's a skill that most people won't have even if they practiced weekly for a few hours.
Awesome video. Most acro pilots complain it's not good enough but it's not really for them. Thanks for pointing that out.
can my girlfriend make coffee with the new capuchino machine? [beginner capuchino machine]
no
Wouldn't it be cool if the gimbal can be controlled by your GOGGLES? Tilt your head up to move the gimbal up and so on. Less controls to manage.
The gimbal's not supposed to move while you're flying in Acro mate. That's not something you'd want to happen.
Believe it or not. Mavic Pro + DJI Goggles (not DJI FPV Goggles) has that feature. Speaking of experience. Also it's where a DJI FPV gimbal controller gets the idea from. :)
You mean tech that was on the Fatshark Attitude V2s (Trinity Head Tracking)...from 2013?
@@MBrulla that’s for pan & tilt camera
What I say earlier, DJI Goggles controls Mavic Pro while flying by tilt, pitch, roll
Another feature, you can control camera gimbal by tilt and pitch.
Yep two separate features.
@@kibbycabbit I was replying to the OP...but cool that they have that tech. It's just funny that it's been out for a long long time (and abandoned by the drone world - planes and wings still use them).
"Were you celebrating?"
"Nooo"
"O-kay"
hahaha So Cute!
Brand new subscriber, and mainly because of your gf's perspective. Hope she continues to fly...
Ashley is awesome. You should make more videos with her.
Just bought and collected mine yesterday here in Papua New Guinea! Will be playing in DJI Virtual Flight for a few days to really practice as much as possible... didn’t think it was so easy with just touch controls on iPhone... but it’s a fun app! :) Kinda nervous about that pro level M-mode!! Great video! 140km/hr is crazy!! Hope my wife will be as natural a pilot as Ashley, then she won’t be as pissed about me dropping $2100 AUD on it! :P
Awesome Drew nice to learn about the DJI drone lil bit too & finally see it on ur channel!! Nice seeing Ashley!! She hasn't been in ur videos long time!! Coo Coo!!
If I ever find a woman who has 1/10th the interest in flying as yours does, I will be a happy camper. Put a big giant 5 karat ring on her finger and never let her go. Hopefully we get to see yall doing more collaborative vids in the future. Great video 💯🤘😉
I know this is an old video, but I liked this video and you have a very nice girlfriend, try hard to keep her. I was blown away how quick she picked up on it. I just got the DJI FPV and really excited to get as good as you.
Hi, I admire the lively Palm Trees in town. I have lived in the Czech Republic since I was 51 years old. I've never seen them with my own eyes anywhere. :) Yeah, never mind. But the drone - it's great, new from DJI. And the young lady is a good pilot. Nice video. Great flight. Thanks.
I think you nailed it with who this drone is for drew! I’ve flown Fpv for 5years now and I think I’d just smash it to bits if I had one, but if I was just starting Fpv it would be ideal. It’s nice to see Ashleigh in a video again, hope you both are well
I was looking for a hobby on a happy medium between sports & tech for my 4 boys & wife.
I may have found it. my 14yo was pushing the drone out of the box with zero experience.
Thier needs to be more drones that connect to DJI V2 googles on the website.. GG.
This opened more doors and I love it.
We need more of Ashley trying to get my girl to fly with me as well so keep them coming
relationship goals
This is a better video than the one you guys did for Rotor Riot as this one is a little more realistic and down to earth. I appreciate the alternate look. One that's not quite so much a commercial. I won't be buying one, but that doesn't mean there isn't a market for such a quad. It'll be interesting to see what develops from this.
I kinda wish they had put the gimbal on the roll axis rather than on pitch, or even on both
You can turn EIS on and it will stabilize small
That was awesome! I thought it was great that you put FPV Mama in the Rotor Riot video and now Ashley, way to cool! I think this is a great way to get someone like Ashley started in FPV. Nice job to you both! :o)
Ashley is going to rock it!!
10:25 Dude, that is the moment every boyfriend/husbands wants to hear :) I feel your joy there man - Well done Ash! You rocked it! Looking forward to see your own channel and flying :) Yeah we definitely want to see you guys flying together, that's what love is all about!
My first time here and I really enjoyed it.
I like how you two interact with each other and whether or not she is enjoying flying the drone that's cool that she's out there doing it with you. ❤️❤️
She's great! No fear. @ 6:45 she's "not nervous" because she doesn't give a rip if she crashes... her crashes are your problem. :) I just wonder about this being a "beginner" drone because it breaks so easily and if you break an arm you're done for a few weeks. My business partner fixed a broken arm on his iFlight Titan in 5 minutes just holding it in his hands and didn't even remove the bottom plate. He just pushed the arm through.
Fun video -thanks for growing the hobby/sport
so cool video. I`ll definitely buy such device. I am happy that something stopped me from buying mavic air 2. FPV Drones is another world and it's so big fun!!!
This is EXACTLY the video I'm looking for! I have been trying to get my wife to fly without frustration. How does that helmet fit her head? Will DJI ruin in by forcing GEO fence on us?LOL she seems soooo uninterested in it at first.. I'm afraid my wife will be the same
Geofence will definitely ruin th experience. Places where I want to fly that I used to fly that were legal aren't accessible without jumping hoopswhere live.
First time watching your channel. Very insightful and helpful. Also Ashley and you make it funny. Thanks
Im never going to own one of those. A typical mini quad has a heck of a crap ton more acceleration than the DJI.
Safety at the expense of maneuverability. Its safer for a new pilot but over-bloated for someone whose already used to full acro mode. It definitely has its' place as a trainer drone and may even be good for spec racing in full manual mode... We'll see how popular this becomes. I think they should stick to the cinema side of things. They've done so well in that arena. If this were my drone, I'd be sending it back to Djisus after each session. (If you're not crashing sometimes, then you'll never imorove). Soldering can be practiced and learned in less than a week. You may as well learn to solder and build your own durable, light, easy to repair, less expensive and more powerful (real) drone.
I feel like there will be aftermarket spare parts available for this drone, just give it time...great show
Dude......... marry her!!!😁👍👍👍
I bought it I fly the Mavic Series have a few DJI Drones already ! good to do something w/ girlfriend she a keeper now Dude!
Right now I'm leaning towards dji rather than builds, my ledrib skylite won't even arm out the box and can't get any assistance thru email. Dji called me to let me know they are sending me another drone after I showed them a picture of a melted glob and told them I was flying full acro over fire and lost signal.
Fun video Drew !!! Good job Ashley !!!!!
Outstanding video and excellent review.
I've been trying to get my wife to fly with me I have 8 drones if you want fly none of them y'all make an awesome team keep up the good work love the video
Your videos got me into FPV many years ago. I plan to get my GF into FPV using this combo set from DJI and this video. Thanks for proving it will work using Ashley as your example.
LOL I wish they would've informed me about that during my motorcycle safety course. You're not wrong.
I said fuck it and bought the setup. I haven't flown much for a couple years but I really love the idea of a hybrid quad. I've watched a lot of videos from FPV channels to get a better sense of the capabilities and everyone seems like they hate to endorse it. The tech behind this is really friggin' cool and the thought that I can upgrade my old analog setup to digital with the equipment I'll get from this is very intriguing.
Good video - thanks for the insight.
Maybe a *bit* quick moving the G/F from safe normal mode straight to sport after one brief flight. Let her gain confidence with the `training wheels` for a month or two. Very experienced fpv guys forget that even basic flying is challenging for a new pilot.
I'm so proud I brought my gf to fly a real fpv drone, not like this but I can appreciate that this "thing" was able to bring the hobby to someone that had some preservations before because of all the barriers that are removed with the thing.
Good luck and happy flying Ashley.
bro u and bubby make like the video lol Nice video drew
Way to go Ashely! 🔥
Great vid Drew 👍
I think I would want one of these over a mavic or any other DJI Drone 👍 I'm still not great @acro after 5 years of building fpv quads so this is a definite want.. But it's a big purchase 😊👍
Thankyou Drew I always enjoy your videos and feel less alone on this planet 🌏 ❤️
The title comes across as a bit condescending, but it's actually really good to have an experienced person and novice learning together about the product and it's potential
Come on with Drew its not condescending its just truth. He is superior when it comes to FPV acro flying.
Awesome and entertaining vid great job guys!!!
you can put a 5inch freestyle quad into angle mode! but going from that to acro is a big jump! (sim time)
Ashley nailed it, great to see her enjoy it....good job
Love the tattoo that is badass
Was done by Matt Lambdin.. check him out! He kills it
looks like she put stickers onto her body. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Thank you guys so much now I have more confidence.
Cool review thanks 🙏
ive watched 10 vids of this drone today and i gotta say yours is the best Drew real life hands on newb hats off to you both thanks Drew And Ashley
I just ordered the combo and already dying waiting for it ^^
I think this is a good drone for casual flight and content creation. Someone may have a mavic but want to FPV with this you do not have to be invested with your life into the hobby. I don’t think this drone will ever be practical for getting the absolutely crazy footage you can with standard FPV drones but like just for content creation stuff I mean there’s really no better solution for moderate flying. If your goal is to get big swoopy shots this is much easier and safer for a mavic flyer
Wow!!! Now she's officially into FPV!!! Good Job Drew!
As a long-time FPV pilot, is it wrong to want this consumer thing? (For fun immersive long-distance cruising) So I built my first quad back in the ZMR-250 CC3D/OpenPilot days, but mostly fly whoops now. As boring as my old Mavic is, I really appreciate it's HD feed, long-distance, long endurance, GPS RTH, easy of use, and how I didn't have to spend so much bench time soldering, programming, troubleshooting. Yeah, this kit is expensive, but is it really? The total parts cost for building a similar quad would likely be similar...
Thanks for sharing. Great stuff. Really help me a lot. Appreciate your time and efforts. Rock rock on!!!
I disliked this drone until I saw this video. Being able to teach someone is important and this makes it that much easier, especially for someone teaching themselves.
But honestly I would like to replace all the plastic with carbon fiber... would make it more crash friendly.. :D
20:07 her reaction when she heard tacos lol...
Shame you didn't have one of the new single hand controllers for her to try. I'd have been very interested to see how she got on with that.
16:22 When a girlfriend starts acting smart.. 🤫😂
Good product but not for me. Instead of this jack of all trades - master of none I bought two drones, a FIMI X8SE for cinematic and a DIY freestyle drone (analog video, Crossfire). They have cost me less (especially in repairs) than the DJI FPV drone and perform better. Well, I also paid in time to learn a lot but that was a fun journey to me. I am not so optimistic about what kind of people the DJI drone will attract to the hobby. I suppose it will mostly be people who think paying a 4-digit number for an "FPV" product will automatically enable them to make videos like Johnny FPV while the drone takes care of not crashing. Also, 160$ for a battery? That's what I paid for my 10 CNHL lipos.
She did awesome. Best review of the DJI drone I've seen so far. Mostly because you had someone fly it that does not fly drones at all. And she did better with it than I've seen anybody do with our normal fpv drones on their first day or week for that matter. Good job to the both of you.
She did great!! Cool idea for the video
Good to see y'all still together....awesome show my friend. The wizard brought the last craze. Dji hopefully will do it again.
What if rotor riot revisited the flying drones in a moving van episode, but the piots sit outside, (tiny whoop course inside van) and the back door was opened. Would it suck you out like in space. (Easy, cheap, and just fun to watch) just a thought
TBH one of my reason following Drew is his relationship with Ashley, they both look so sweet...
Relationship goal
Congrats, your video was the final push for me to purchase this drone, I have 6 GPS Drones, this will be the first FPV, I've flown the Mavic 2 Pro and Phantom 4 Pro ver 2 with the DJI Googles RE, so hopefully, the FPV will not be too much different, I am now a new subscriber to your channel
A big part of why I started FPV is because of the look of an FPV drone, it looks rad, industrial, customizable, and the DJI looks horrible if i'm being honest xD
Agreed, I kinda hate how it looks xD
Great perspective!
This was fun, good job Ashley
Points for being the only DJI FPV video anywhere on the internet to include a hot girl.
Excellent video! I enjoyed watching, seems great for those wanting to learn FPV freestyle coming from a stabilised GPS type quad! 😎👍
Here's something I'm curious about, all you who got the DJI FPV quad under NDA, have you been in communication with each other about the quad, discussing its various aspects as you test its functions and capabilities?
Thanks for the info. I fly Mavics professionally, and Whoops for fun. I have considered getting a cinewhoop (with DJI FPV) for a while, but now I am considering the DJI FPV Drone to capture those unique shots. How do you think the DJI stacks up to a good cinewhoop?
Love your music choices when editing, especially the mood change for eating nachos!
Old video but I honestly think the DJI FPV drone is way more cinematic than any home built DYI fpv drone could possibly ever be. But that's just my opinion. Can it fly like a racing FPV drone nope but it's not really what I think DJI had in mind for this drone . For what it is the DJI FPV drone is in its own category of drones and I think that's a good thing..
Really cool video bro!! That helps a lot to understand how this drone works! Also good for your girlfriend! ✌️
I like how you knew instantly that this new product wasn't for you and tried to find someone who would fit better with it to fly and help you figure out how to review the product and assess its merits and place in the fpv ecosphere. The experience did turn her on to drones more. Despite not having the experience to say tons about the drone she does have the presence to react honestly and that reaction communicates a perspective that is a flip-side to the insider pro doing his 300th review.
I have been trying to get my brother into into FPV and I think this is PERFECT for him to back that jump! Thanks Drib for the review!
im living near to the airport, so no chance to fly around the house. i live in switzerland, where any drone flying is under an agreement - its forbidden to fly higher than 150m. its forbidden to fly with the goggles on , except there is a second person who has eye contact with the drone...well in general its forbidden to fly without eyecontact to the drone.. so my question, does is still worth to buy a drone here in switzerland?
Awesome video.
Very cool, it might be a way of getting my wife into FPV, and would kind of be a filming drone for our camping adventures as my quads are would be hard for her to learn on. Another good Vid as always Drew.
Perfect! Getting your significant other into kwads and the wonderful experience of flight without all the barriers.
I wasn't thinking about getting one at all, but I wasn't considering my wife since the learning curve was so bad. Now it might be in the near shopping list
