Best of luck if you have an issue. Banggood does not honor their return policy. They make it very difficult for you to return an item. Had to file a complaint with PayPal to get them to accept a return on a DOA aircraft. Also, China is a mess right now, been waiting for over a month for an inbound shipment as well as an outbound return. Better to buy from someone in your region. If a supplier in my region doesn't have it, I don't need it, is my policy going forward. No more dealing direct with China.
This is a $50 drone that is disposable. Also you see to be confused about China and have North American expectations. You really need to watch my old video entitled BUYING DRONES FROM CHINA. You will then get a much better understanding.
This is actually pretty advanced compared to what was available ten years ago in that segment. I remember having to constantly replace tired motors and having to maintain height manually at all times.
Thanks for the video! I have a Mavic Air, but I also enjoy flying this size of drones. I still don't see any drone in this category outperforming DJI Tello. I hope we see in the near future a drone like Tello with better camera, microSD recording, more stable connection, at least 1 axis gimbal with good digital image stabilization (at this price will be difficult to have optical stabilization) and all under 100€/$ 😂
The thing is, the Tello isn’t very powerful. Lots of toy level drones that have optical flow have more powerful motors than it and perform better in wind. Although with those ur missing out A LOT of stuff the Tello provides
With MJX I kinda expect brushless motors, so $100??? I think my MJX Bugs 3was $99 and is brushless and flies at about 40 mph. I also have another MJX brushless drone, forget which model cause its in a box with my other crashed drones. From the name alone its a safe bet that theres some quality to it so I trust it
Wow! ; Great little (and looks like fun !) Drone Captain; have to say however, very very impressed with the "Calm" of your white Cat? (by the door) didn't seemed fussed at all and just happy to watch the review !!😅😅😅😅😅
It’ll do anything I want?! Will it sit and stay, if I ask it to? 😂 JK... like you said, It’s a nice pocket drone to fly around and have fun with. I do like how the camera is controlled directly by human intervention (gotta love that flawless technology.) Thanks for sharing it with us Captain. 👍🏻
This guy is a master at getting the message across. It's a bouncy enjoyable tutorial and if you're thinking of making RU-vid tutorials on any subject, watch this one carefully. I loved it.
I'm really surprised how stable it is indoors? I remember playing with those types of toys and constantly it would just go sideways into the walls. The pictures are nice, thanks for sharing Steve. 👍
Como !! MJX 😍 for the price & Co.Brands durability ?, it looks very updated and Fun . Mind you, im just a Flyer & not much on camera Birds. Nice peek, Capi.
Yes, a review will occur probably in JUNE. Unfortunately I, like many, have to buy such drones so I've ordered one. The reviews you have currently seen on the MINI 3 PRO are from people that DJI Sends the Free Drones to and ensures they say only what DJI tells them to say, which is why if you watch two or more reviews, everyone is saying the same thing.
No video or photo from the drone's camera? i know quality is horrible, i just wanna see how much it compares to other trainer/toy drones. I'm also kind of curious how much it has improved compared to older models with the same price range.
can i ask for a drone? I dont have money to buy 1 again because my kk8 mini is broke they sent me a broke drone, Can you give me one? Its ok if not 😁😃😇
Not many people on the planet would compare this drone to the MINI 3 PRO, or even consider this drone over the MINI 3 PRO if one could afford the MINI 3 PRO.
Finally, there is a drone which I really wanted! I asked you for such a drone when I was a beginner, almost a year ago, but there was none like this one at this price range!!! How good is it! I am very much impressed of V1 Mini Pocket aircraft, and the better thing is that, after a really long time, you reviewed an MJXRC product! The company is really good in making low cost drones for sure. This V1 Mini drone is a very high-tech drone for the price, to be honest! 15 minutes battery life at one battery, which is only of 730 mAh?! Isn't that superb for a very small drone, *with camera* to fly for such a long time at one battery? Three batteries, and ot is gonna fly for 45 minutes straight! Obviously, it is one of the drones to have loads of fun with, * specially indoors* ! Its build quality seems to be amazingly strong for such size and the hand toss feature got me extremely surprised! I cannot believe that how it is capable of doing all this, *including the fun 3D flips* after everything costs only 56 dollars! Its controller is pretty handy and looks good too. The photo and video quality impressed me very much as I expected it to be just some pixels of various colours, but they were clear photos! 50 metres range is more then enough for this drone as most people like me, would like to mostly fly it indoors and for outdoors 'mini' professional drones, Mini 3 Pro is going to be a Wonder! The V1 weighs 73 grams? Only? Oh💀, now the advancement of technology is scaring me that how MJXRC managed to make it so amazing weighing less then 80 grams and being too budget friendly! The fact that with all the propeller guards, its mass increases by a single gram and is 74 grams, is a bit too astonishing for sure... How great is it to see this fantastic drone with so many epic features! And, I just noticed that it costs 89.285× less then the DJI Mavic 3 Cine! Lol
Toss start was a great feature. It does look like a fun easy to control pocket size. What would be the next level up from this that would have stabilization in a movable gimbal
On another subject. I appreciate your panic training. I got a used mini se. Just because I wanted it. I also have a mini 2 and a bunch of others. Must be some obsession. Any way. I must have lost transmission. The screen went blank. The notice came up. Lost transmission. My 1st thought. Crud. Then. RTH notice. Whew. Then. It was going to land on my roof then I had to stop it and figure out how to get it oriented and got it landed. Almost had a cow. Another time. Same drone. Wrong RTH setting. Almost went 400feet. Another heart racing moment. But I remember you said. “ don’t do anything “. It will come back to you”. Helped keep me out of panic mode. Lol. Slowly getting better. Need different areas to fly. Lots of restrictions in California. Love all your videos. Thanks.
Nice Video Steve.......Mini 3...here.....hold my beer....😆I like that toss and fly feature. This would make a great stocking stuffer for Christmas at that price.........👍
This is Koyama(means small mountain) writing from Japan. This small drone looks and flies like HS340 from Holy Stone. The battery specification is also the same. Don't know who makes it but to me it's identical. But I think that it's a good drone anyway. Enjoyed your review, pictures and comments.
Can anyone help me with a user forum on this MJX V1 Mini drone? I bought the drone based on the Captain Drone's review, the drone arrived yesterday but my drone is not functioning properly... After about 10/15 seconds of flight, it looses altitude quickly... I want to know if i can do some other calibration, other than the gyro calibration from the user manual. I'd like to read if other users encountered this problem and if they could fix it. i really like the toss feature on this drone, the 360 flips and even the picture quality (compared to my Eachine e58), so it's too bad it's not working as it should.
Small update on the matter: i haven't found a user forum, so Icouldn't solve the problem... I have instead contacted Banggood and after some to-and-fro they offered to send a new drone to replace the faulty one! Now i just have to be patient, but moral of this story: don't believe everything you read about bad aftersales service from Banggood, my experience is up until now been very good.
Last update: the replacement came in and the drone is working perfectly! Very nice Banggood. Nice little drone, the toss and fly function is very fun. Little light to fly outdoors in any sort of wind, pleased with the video quality for the 40 bucks it costs.
Not many people on the planet would compare this drone to the MINI 3 PRO, or even consider this drone over the MINI 3 PRO if one could afford the MINI 3 PRO.
Wow...a camera drone that does flips and it's cheap. I wish they would put some acrobat modes in DJI camera drones to make the flying part a little more fun. FPV drones get me motion sick.
this looks like the first ever drone i flew, and it had no tech other than a rotten camera (JJRC?). it took a little while to get used to, i dont know if i would consider this as "fun", the only people that can fly it would already have drones ( i think it would amuse me a weekend, once, so kind of landfill) Captain Drone it would be great to have a few videos of your favourite drones (i would like more of the plane drone, the VMO i think )
As the video/photo resolution is pretty good it's a shame ( as the price of processors tumble) MJX couldn't fit EIS - a fun little entry drone to get people interested in the hobby.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 Of course ,an extra €10 as processing chips have fallen, the video definition is quite good so why not back it up? Of course there's no GPS or altitude hold, the thing weighs nothing, you're right - why bother !!
Captain don't do that ,you are a scammer ,you will not get anything from, so keep it to yourself People watch out the scammers is on captain website don't let them get a dime from you be alert
Each day I go through the comments to delete the scammers comments. Also if you look at each of my videos, the very first comment is always from me and it warns everyone that scammers will pretend to be me saying they have won something.
@@FredT34 When flying in the backyard, those are the recorded 1080p images. I left them to look small on the screen as the drone was bouncing around in the wind.
Evening capt well it is here in the UK have you checked out DM productions 2 hours ago first flight of mini pro 3, Sorry if I woke you up not sure time over there.
Yes, watched a few flights earlier this week (many not published). This one guy has received the green light through DJI to publish as if it is a leaked advanced product. This is how DJI controls the message.
Looks like an Eachine toy knock off. LOL The problem with brushed motors is that they tend to wear our so fast. The bearings tend to go first, then the brushes. This is one of those drones that you cannot expect to fly over 6 months if you like to fly drones a lot. Definitely a good beginner drone!
You are showing your age sir. In the old what you say is correct but this is the year 2022. Go have a look at many of your home appliances and your work tools. Most are BRUSHED motors. You pay a premium for BRUSHLESS motors in tools.
Pretty cool, offers a lot for a small price. I’ve never had a drone but I’ve been thinking about it for a while now. Do you think this drone would be good enough for examining my roof and gutters? The pictures and video you demonstrated looked pretty good, of course, as a newcomer, I don’t think I’m in a position to judge that. I would be using an iPhone SE. Thanks for a great review, your channel is great! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 man I love how you keep doing these "hey, here's a cheap entry level drone" videos. it's a real service to a majority of the people who want in on UAVs- entry level cheap, low risk, high curiosity. unfortunately, I've noticed vids you've done on this months or years ago on those products all have one thing in common- they either disappear off the market or become WAY MORE expensive.
