Black Falcon Pro 4K Drone: Scam or Legit?

[@jordanliles]

IMPORTANT: Below the video is the like button (thumbs up), dislike and "Share." To the right of those buttons is a "Thanks" button. If you don't see it, look to the right of "Share" and tap the three dots. I would appreciate it more than you know if you tapped the "Thanks" button. Thank you.

[@cindylewwho]

Thank you so much. My husband just 5 minutes ago said, “Hey, do you think this drone would be good for Tommy? (My grandson). I only got scammed once in my life, and I learned a valuable lesson. I NEVER fall for scams, ever. I took to KZbin, and there you were. You saved my money. You’re awesome. Thank you, thank you, thank you so much!! Have a great day!😊

[@jackm6307]

Just ran across this in a G search. Page claims to rexiew 5 drones, then pick the best of the 5 being the falcon, followed by a 50% off of $99 deal. Ran the name through KZbin and saw your video...much thanks for helping those who tend not to do enough research before they buy.

[@HAMZA-di3vp]

That's the exact website I found on Google and clicked on it, but the Black Falcon website looked sketchy with its design and layout. So my search led me here, fortunately.

[@waynehearst317]

So, this scam is still going strong. I just received an email today regarding "best gifts of 2023" and this drone was on the list.

[@natalienicolaou1]

Me2

[@mikeharvey3798]

As did I. I almost bought it! Thanks for your video.

[@rsfmadison]

Same here. Almost bought it, when they started throwing additional offers at me at the checkout I started to doubt this thing. Closed the window and found this video. Very helpful! Thank you! Originally I was reading some sort of article irrelevant of any gifts or drones and this banner came onto me. Perfect for holiday season. Update: after closing window and not completing purchase they still charged me and send an order continuation that did not contain order number nor items but random content 😅. I replied to email if I won’t get refund immediately I’ll be requesting dispute. I’d give the credit the response came immediately with my refund on the way. We will see. Be aware of these scammsters.

[@dumbshit1977]

Haha, my story was similar. I clicked on an article about an 81 year old restaurant here in jersey and the 2023 best gifts sub article was within the story. I had to click, lol

[@aprilratliff8202]

Same! Ugh! Glad I didn't buy it

[@dreadpirate8697]

Thankyou so much for taking the time to make this video. Microsoft served me an ad for this. I had a feeling it was a scam and you clearly and precisely confirmed it. I'm guessing this may get legit good reviews from people who liked it but don't know they were actually getting scammed.

[@f.allenrisler5303]

That email wasn't really from Microsoft.

[@mifanointed1]

Thanks. I just saw that advertisement on my Facebook. I decided to get a review of it on KZbin. Your video was the first one I came upon. Thanks for informing us.

[@Genuinelyjayelalijah]

So happy I am a review /research nerd when it comes to products. Thank you!

[@nthipimthethwa7229]

This scam is still happening! Didn’t look like what I bought … returning it forthwith!!! Thanx for confirming my suspicions!

[@garywilliams9401]

Thank you. I already placed an order. I will return it once I receive the Drone. Thanks again.

[@jonecir]

Wow! Thanks, Jordan for this awesome review! I was browsing FB and saw an AD for this Falcon drone. Before I clicked the purchase button I decided to do a quick G search and I'm glad I found your page!

[@ZeroSumJ1]

THANK YOU! I came across this drone in an ad and I looked into it. Thought about getting one for my kid for Christmas. This is quality content.

[@jordanliles]

Thank you and feel free to hit the "thanks" button to the right of the like button above. It's a little heart-shaped symbol. If it's not showing up to the right of the like button, tap the three dots to the right of the like button and a little menu should expand. I would appreciate it!

[@ramongonzales9256]

Thanks for the heads up. I did a search for reviews and the site I found must have been owned by the same scammers. Turned out to be just another advertisement for the Black Falcon.

[@dreadpirate8697]

I have a feeling some of these good reviews are legit and they don't know they were scammed and paid way too much for it.

[@kevinruiz77]

Almost spent the $99 and went did my research and you came out to save me! Thank you! I’ll definitely look for another better and non scam option!

[@GaboonViper67]

This type of video is the best thing about KZbin. I've been seeing the same ad for a long time now. Thanks for clearing that up. They always made it seem like such a good deal. Glad I didn't buy one.

[@rafaelortiz544]

Thank you for the heads up, unfortunately🤦‍♂️ I have already purchased 5 of these 😡. 4 still survive 1 MIA... I would've saved my self a bit of change 💰, but live and learn 🤷‍♂️

[@praveenpraveen3124]

Thanks for making this video. I was about purchase the 2 items for $117. Just wanted to check the user reviews on the youtube. Luckily, this video popped up at the first place. You save me from the scam

[@azhavicx]

Thank you for the video/share/content I receive the same email. I did a little bit of research & stumble across your video I’m not going to have to worry about any problem’s or if the product was worth it.

[@jaredamaral4415]

Thank you for your well presented investigation on yet another scam to take advantage of consumers

[@hogrydr100]

short, to the point and very informative. thank you so much for this video and saving me from overspending. keep em coming.

[@asalives]

Thanks for the comment. I don't understand how it takes great pictures at 3000 feet, but you aren't supposed to go beyond the 300 feet wifi limit? It says you can fly it 1/2 mile away and one place says battery life 30 minutes, but other places said 9 minutes! That's a lot of difference! I guess I'll save my money.

[@evequinterosvargas3296]

Thank you for saving me from falling for this scam. Research ahead to avoid scams!

[@thookman08]

Thanxxxx Alot‼️🤟 yes I was on the phone getting ready to order them decided to check real quick and I found this video... Happy Holidays ‼️🤟💯

[@NoName-h1i9e]

Was ready to accept an offer for $117 + shipping for 2 drones but called them to verify the camera details but the fellow from Bangladesh would only tell me it had a fixed lens. Well he could NOT get me back to the camera page so I asked to cancel, he then offered and additional 35% discount for the order bringing it to a total of $89. Now I'm REALLY spooked. Now I HARD cancelled and then I saw your video, PHEW... thanks for the heads up. Mike C.

[@kyrabrutsman6882]

Yes. Grateful. I cancelled immediately and thankfully they credited my account back!

[@WilliamBelo68]

All I can say, is it okay? I'm a gummy. I ordered it but it didn't come to me in an email. I was playing a game and it came to me as one of the ads. And my holy Stone got kind of crushed and I don't know. Just ordered it. So I probably come back and give you a thumbs up. But I'm waiting for it to get here. And after it arrives, I'm gonna see if it does what it says it's supposed to do. So, after that, then I will come back to here and let you know but from what I've read from some of your reviews there it sounds like it but I just said it didn't come to me and you me know anything. It's interesting as an advertisement when I'm playing a game, I think it was a game. Oh no I was actually reading the news. You know the news apps, So ok, talk to you later. Hopefully I'll be here in about 3 more days or something.

[@raymolina7399]

bruh, thankyou so freaking much. I don't own a drone and been wanting one, so I did a review for top 5 drones and that same add your talking about this drone is it. I can't believe how much fake shit there is on these website. wish you do a follow up video how know when it's fake/scammers and what not!

[@torresmaria842]

Thank you so much. Just subscribed..So many scams out there but there are still honest people like you. Glad I found you in time..Here Miami. Florida

[@mattconnolly169]

Thank you I’m new to drones I’m not familiar with all the models

[@StevenLewisDaRealSteve]

I wished that I would have known about this before dropping $99 on this. I was thinking that I was getting a bargain and I'm glad that I opted for just 1 before they were basically giving them away. When I received it and opened it, I was so disappointed at the presentation. The case looked cheap and is falling apart. The drone itself feels cheap, it is so lightweight that I feel cheap. I had to Google it to verify the quality of it. U ran across the video and immediately knew that I was scammed. Well, that's $100 down the drain. Some day I'll take it for a spin.

[@kraigbutler2352]

You saved me $100. Thanks!

[@jordanliles]

So glad I could help you!

[@Jupiterider1]

I knew it was too good to be true. Good video. Thank you.

[@Smurf_88]

Appreciate the video. Maybe it’s just me but when I went to hit thanks below your video as you requested, I was offered a chance to send you a tip. That seems odd.

[@jordanliles]

Hi. Yes, the "thanks" button is just a way for people to give back to me if they want to. I maybe receive only around $10 total from the "thanks" button in a good week. It's just something extra I ask about. Thanks for watching.

[@BSConservativeGOAT]

I almost ordered the 2 pack, glad i always check yt reviews. Thanks

[@Fordnut428]

Thank you so much for this video, I was just about ready to buy a 2 pack on their site for Black Friday sale for $140 untill I did a little more research and found this video

[@corakiart]

Glad I came across your video. I was considering getting one for my husband. He enjoys drones.

[@eli9494]

Thank you, saved me spending a bunch of money

[@prorganicsworld]

Thank you for your video. I almost been scammed with this drone, thanks.

[@scottwinfrey5436]

Thank you so much

[@wfmcfp1]

did it....on Amazon....and he is telling the truth!

[@elainelawson4965]

Oh, jeesshhhh: ordered these couple days go and now am embarrassed! I'm going to ship them directly back as soon as they arrive. I watched a number of complimentary videos about them, too. Dagnabit!!

[@jivomir1994]

This dude is real, deserves the follow THanks mate !

[@jeffchandler8024]

Someone I know got this for me for Christmas and when i was doing some research on it (to fly) I came across these videos.

[@samprakash7197]

Thanks for your valuable advice

[@f.allenrisler5303]

Thanks to this video I was able to quickly cancel the order and refund issued to PayPal.

[@hurleymediatv]

Thank you! My malware blocker even blocked their website...

[@TrungNguyen-zl6hd]

Walmart sells it for $18.39! I bought 2 weeks ago,and received it today,from an ad. First one few out of control and when i try to land it,droppedrapidly and crashed. Will try to return the 2nd one,if possible! Not worth 3$.

[@TJ-jx4pp]

Thanks for sharing, we almost got swindled.

[@jamescarlisle3770]

Thanks for the short and direct answer. What I thought.

[@sirzoso2005]

What drone do you recommend for a beginner?

[@ptagma]

Holly molly. Big Thanks. I almost pulled the trigger. Again big thanks.

[@charlesdelap4250]

Great and thanks. These scammers are total trash.

[@frederickmaniquis757]

Thanks.i would have been a victim if I had not seen this! Thanks and more power to you!

[@FreddieYelton]

Omg wish I would’ve seen this b4 purchasing mine! Thanks for the great advice and video! Keep them coming!

[@HAMZA-di3vp]

We would like your feedback. Did you receive your order? If so, is it actually a good drone?

[@rokr8058]

No, it was junk. I also purchased a two pack thinking it would be a good intro to trying drones at a low cost. My devices didn't even communicate with the controller correctly. It (sometimes) obeyed the throttle but that's about it. No forward, reverse or lateral response. Also they do not honor their full money back guarantee. There is a significant 'restocking fee' if you even get them to agree to the return.

[@JuniourTeevinesTinasheGwendazw]

Thank you soo much for your time

[@mariocastro5277]

Thank you for the update

[@SoulSeeker770]

Thank you. Have you tried it to see if it is truly 4k and how well it performs?

[@jordanliles]

It's just a small, cheap and rebranded drone. It's below basic. I wouldn't spend a cent on it.

[@MauricioR23]

So are you saying that the e58 is a knock off the Black Falcon drone or the Black falcon drone is basically the same as the e58?

[@kodidung8462]

Thank you for passing on your message.

[@FilaDuce43]

Thank you so much... I was a couple clicks away from getting two of them for Christmas

[@Sloppy7ths]

That begs the second question though: Is it a good deal for $20 bucks?

[@jordanliles]

I would say: No.

[@edmondmahmoudi456]

Thanks bro for exposing this guys

[@coolkidgoodgamer1371]

you just saved me from buying it ...thank you and God bless you

Wow, thank you so much. You saved me money. Kepp up the good work!!

[@nitehawk147]

Thank you for not letting me waste my money. Thank you.

[@jordanliles]

[@TaylorRichards-zk6wk]

OMG THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! I'm soooo glad I just seen this video I was literally JUST on the site about to buy 2 of them!!!!

[@jamesanello7556]

I bought one. I find it very unstable, it has a mind of it's own. I can't find a way to control the camera as far as tilting it. Is there a control I'm missing?

[@cutescaryforever2629]

Anyone who is experienced with drones can easily spot that the footage they use in their ad is captured by a high quality FPV drone. You can see it in the maneuvering of the flight. There is absolutely no way it could maneuver in such a way with brushed motors. If a $99 drone could really move that way it would be putting the entire fpv market out of biz.

[@horaceo1574]

Thanks, and Blessings

[@DailyTruth-wr6vb]

Video has great value for exposing scam. Thank you.

[@roger3958]

Yeah, a couple years ago my son said Get DJI, or don't get anything. He was right!

[@ronniehughes9660]

Thanks for the heads up brother.

[@SarahPyleVlog]

So should i buy the $20 one from amazon ? Or they are both not good ?

[@flwoods1]

Here in Asia on FB, sellers claimning to sell a DJI Mini 4 pro for $ 60, complete with original DJI mini 4 videos and photos. What do they get? one guy got a block of wood, another guy got a plastic wallet and a brick

Thank you!

[@carmelomorales756]

I just almost fall for it but crossed path w ur video. Thank you.

[@ChuckWixson]

YEP..... THEY GOT ME. I DID IT ALL BACKWARDS AND ORDERED IT THEN DID MY RESEARCH. EXPENSIVE LESSON

[@KILLER9676]

Yes, all searches for this drone list sponsored reviews. I bought two as wanted the claimed longest flying time. Ha ha. I used 3 fully charged batteries, got a max of 5 minutes at the lowest speed, and just hovering, repeated on all 3 batteries. I dare not try taking it above house height or further out in range; when the battery dies it will crash. I'm checking out the "No questions asked, satisfaction guarantee" for money back. May try my luck at a Mini 4 Pro, or if $ allows, a Mavic 3!

[@KILLER9676]

Update: I called them and requested a refund. The East Indian customer service guy said they were for indoor flying. I said not according to their website and I wanted them to honor the 90-day satisfaction warranty. First, I was offered a 50% refund and kept the drones. I refused. He then offered a 75% refund and I kept the drones. This was a good compromise. It saves me packaging them, taking them to the post office then paying return postage (not sure return delivery would have been included). I could have held out to see what I may have been offered next, but 2 "toy" drones for $12 ea was acceptable. If anyone does better let me know! PS, Was notified almost immediately by PayPal that the return funds were in progress!

[@Coolshows101]

I got the e88 pro from Temu for $3.85. It looks the same. I could have had it cheaper, but I wanted the one with dual cameras. I has both cameras, one in the front, and one on the bottom. Seems to not fly very long, or well.

[@LuisElebario]

Thank you

[@backyardbreeze112]

Thank you! I was about to order this for my kids for Christmas! So how is the drone for the $19.00 price? Any good?

[@jordanliles]

I haven't checked it out but maybe see what Target is selling in stores in kids' aisles. Maybe they have something interesting that's not a high price. Also, if you want, feel free to hit the "thanks" button to the right of the like button above. It's a little heart-shaped symbol.

[@stevedivito8795]

Thanks for the heads Up.

[@karabinas]

But it’s ranked #1 on Consumer Expert Review’s Top 5 Drones for 2023…They say It’s even better than the DJI Mini 3!!!😮

[@paulcosta5854]

I wouldn't call it a scam per se, it's just rebranded and hella marked up. This is what many companies do with a lot of retail merchandise. From what I understand, the iPhone costs a third to make of what Apple sells it for. Talk about hand over fist. As far as the drone itself, it is as expected, very cheaply made and so lightweight that when I took it out to fly it, the wind carried it off into a tree and that is where it now lives. I paid $50 for it and it was mainly to see if I could fly a drone at all as I had never tried one. Glad it was $50 and not $500. I forgot to add, the camera is okay, but you have to have a lot of sunlight and video is skippy and choppy.

[@jennifergrant94]

Thanks...

[@Dex_Lulz]

Thank you for this.

[@justinhull422]

Thank and do you know of any drones that don't break the bank, something with 4k ,over a mile distance, and doesn't need a permit to fly it

[@michaelblack8265]

DJI mini 2 $339 on DJI website

[@roger3958]

I have the Mini SE. My son has the Mini 2. The Mini 2 is SO much better. Just distance alone, it goes for miles. My mini SE says 2 mile range, but I'm lucky to get a half mile. It's annoying.

[@justinhull422]

@roger3958 thanks I've been looking at a lot of them but having someone that owns it is so much better.

[@roger3958]

@@justinhull422 my pleasure. Happy to help. I liken the SE to a toy, while the mini 2 could handle some light commercial grade work. Meanwhile the falcon discussed in this video is worse than a toy. It’s figurative garbage. Good luck!

[@RichiePS]

The phony thing about this dang drone is that it is everywhere in reviews. Compared agaist the best there is and they are still supposedly better. Those reviews have a link to buy it but you click on the competition link and takes you no where.

[@taxisteve929]

Now this guy says there is a legitimate black falcon, so what you’re saying is the real black falcon is legitimately a decent drone and the other one is just something that is a knock off and should be selling for 20 bucks. At first I was thinking it meant all black falcon drawings were bad. Because I’ve never had one and I saw it got really good reviews for a starter drone. I would hope the people doing the reviews would know the difference and point that out but the people making a knock off probably waited for the reviews to come out and re-branded or remarketed their junk.

[@ThirasuKanchana]
