That megaphone is EXTREMELY fun. I flew it around on my DJI Mini 4 pro. I have MANY items from StartRc. I've been very happy overall with the quality and fun of the items. The LED props are fun, I had them on for a week or so. Only 1 drawback is that you can not fold your mini 4 down for storage. The air drop kit is really cool! Btw funny thing was . You put triple props in the dji case 😂😂😂

[@baronlund9725]

Ah, but the message came across.

[@51Drones]

Winner winner chicken dinner! 😂

[@BIGPAPAFOOT]

@@51Drones I'm excited to rock my new 51 drones hat. 😀

[@CheeseheadMedia]

At 3:55 when you are talking about adding extra propellers to the hard case for the Mini 3/Mini 3 Pro/Mini 4 Pro the extra propellers you are putting in the case are for the Avata 2. What I enjoy about your videos is that you are not afraid to tell the bad things along with the good. Way too many people who do product reviews will never criticize a product with a fear they won't get anymore "free stuff". You're honest and that means a lot to me as a viewer.

[@PatricksDIY]

Lol the triple propellors HAS to be the funny thing you did. Great Video!

[@openskyphotography]

I think the storage underneath the drone is for props, etc., and that longer, thinner space is for your filters case.

[@RONALDSCHULTE]

I have been using the startrc case since the mini 4 came on the market and am still very satisfied. The drone and controller is well protected and all the necessary accessories fit in it perfectly. The case also regularly goes with me in my bicycle bag and I've never had any problems with it. For the money, a top product.

[@RonaldBrown59]

Most of the StartRC products that I have tried are well worth the money spent. Especially there hard cases, for the low price you pay for them, there pretty hard to beat. Great video Russ, and thanks for sharing.

[@FujiboHeavy]

Thanks for the review! I was eyeing up the Startrc case as well, but ended up going with Symik based off your recommendation

[@Viper1171]

Thank you for sharing with us the correct Sandisk micro card to use for 4k 60/100 & hyper lapse usage, much appreciated since I just bought my drone 2 days ago and ran to see what Sandisk micro card I got. Thank God it was the Sandisk Extreme Pro 512GB as you mentioned. 👍

[@RVingwithG]

I think the true shenanigans was you put the strobe light on the back of the drone…? I thought it needed to be on top of the Drone😮 And of course the tri-props that you stuck in the case. 😊💚💚💚💚💚💚

[@davidellis5135]

I love the controller more than the drone .

[@Diantane]

I bought that case right after getting the Mini 4 Pro. It took about 3 weeks to get it as everything was new. Also ordered the case for the Avata 2 (again 3 weeks). I prefer cases to those DJI bags

[@mfekeza]

Nice videos, as usual, man! You helped me alot starting my drone journey! 💪

[@marcopolozx11]

Bought the hard case for my Mini 3. Awesome case, but kind of cumbersome compared to the original fly more soft bag.

[@haikalazhar9539]

Great vid. I think there are few things I caught you did: 1. You used a wrong prop for the demo, shown is the Mini 4/3 drone but put a 3 bladed prop 2. Fumbled whilst folding the RC2 antenna (Not sure) 3. Inserted the SD card wrong way around the first time

[@Diantane]

Buying the goggles and motion controller for the Mini 4 Pro isn’t exactly budget @ $800, but there is a much better way. I bought the Xreal Air 2 Pro AR glasses. They plug directly into your RC 2 controller and you see a 200 inch screen with incredible detail. You can also use it for watching movies or playing games on the pc. Can also connect to smartphone and iPad

[@GENERALLee-jp4xr]

they are the reason my dji fpv is still alive and well

[@karlbecker8775]

I have that case, and it is amazing for the money! I paid $35 for mine a few months ago.

[@BAMDrones-MichaelBelshe]

You put the drone down with the camera lens facing down! What are you doing? 😂 Your videos are always very informative, thank you for all you do!

[@OTPFrodo]

I have the sun hood, excellent product for the $$. Especially the fact that I don't need to drop, I mean, unscrew and store the joysticks. 😂

[@RobsTubeTV]

I actually just got the sun shade cover for the DJI RC. The only grip I have is that the hinge feels cheap and probably will fail or at least wear out and stop clicking into positions.

[@billrenfro2790]

I picked up the sun hood for my air3, works and looks good. 😎

[@Roys_Drones]

thanks for the informative video...

[@LouisD2023]

Great video. Lots of cool accessories. Not something you did, but was still funny to see your cat peak in the door @8:03

[@51Drones]

😅

[@OVRCOME]

Picked me up a Memory card from your link! Thanks man!!

[@peterjb49]

Very interesting products, glad I checked in today!

[@jimwilliams7136]

The sun hood won't fit if you have the silicone protective cover on your RC controller.

[@wingrovedl]

Three bladed props into a two bladed drone box. Not really gonna work for backups. I'm not the first, but I deserve a hat too ! lol lol lol 🤓

[@gordonbarbay750]

This is not an endorsement or anything, but just a FYI, StartRC does also have a dual layer hard case. It is the exact same price as the Symic.

[@51Drones]

Thanks for the info. I will check it out!

[@stuartmeek763]

Great video again, i actually already purchased the case.. as you said the foam isn’t the best, which is why for my other drones i went with Lekeufee cases which have the best foam and the prices are really competitive….. i will be purchasing the screen cover for my screen displays… like you tho i use a screen with my mini 4(iPad mini)… I haven’t found issue with the cards as you have tho, but have gone to the extreme pro cards.. offer was buy 4 get 5% off for me..

[@stewcoil2481]

I accidently did an intersection on slow-motion instead of hyper-lapse. Not very interesting. I would think hyper-lapse would have no problem saving a frame every couple seconds or so with a slower SD card.

[@Jbrooks585]

Love rando accessory vids!

[@judithwebber2102]

Great video with great info. Thx

[@davidward1224]

You put 3 bladed props into the slot when descirbing the case while suggesting the slot was to store props for the Mini 3 Pro.

[@wembley636]

Anything that adds weight to the Mini 4 Pro could push it over the sub 250g weight, meaning here in the UK you would need a CAA license and be restricted on where you can fly (dramatically), you need to state this.

[@Zimmir]

great video, I can't wait to buy a triple blade for my dji mini 4 pro hahaha!

[@skycam509]

So, Russ... the primary message about StartRC is that they make cut-rate gear that is just now becoming somewhat usable, and you're going to put their props on your drone? Borrow a drone from Ken and try them on on his first. I'd recommend flying over water. Be sure to get video! Thanks for this video. 😉

[@RRRobbie-ee9dw]

Why did U put a 3 way prop in your box lol 😆💚🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@shsechas]

Sup Russ. Don't have the M4P, but the M3P with the RC. Like your videos, so here for support.

[@51Drones]

Man. I truly appreciate that! 🙏🏻

[@Magic4drone]

Love your videos. Interesting

[@Desmoducky]

Drone bell ding at the end

[@whitewaterrockhoppingnorwa9602]

I think you need more avata props in that case, just in case you bring it along. Two is not enough.

[@seanr10]

Love your videos. I did the same wirh my Mavic 3. Had the wrong SD card in the machine and it sure didn't like it!

[@possumlips]

Anybody know where I can get a hard case for my M4P that has a spot for my Integra goggles and RC2 motion controller also?

[@wayneciabaszewski3173]

how come you never do any autel drones?

[@nickrich710]

Would you recommend the battery for the DJI mini 4 pro the battery 51 minutes

[@wildlifesnapper1]

I use the ViFly which is an excellent quality strobe, not sure of its avaiability in the USA but its very popular here in England. The startRc case is identical to other cases from other brands so I'm guessing that StartRc do not manufacture them but simply add their name to the product?

[@LarryChase-of8fx]

Will the Sun Hood fit in the Simic Hard-side Waterproof Case? The propeller you put in @ the 4:13 mark seems a bit wonky? I am building a checklist as I brought a full SanDisk last week.

[@PowderMill]

❤ Russ.. My lovely wife and servant (JUST KIDDING Honey 😳) wanted to relay her best wishes to your Wife and entire family. She went through a bout with breast cancer in 2019 and, despite the horrible care during the “Fauci Years”, she’s been cancer free. Thanks for your videos.

[@51Drones]

Thank you. 🙏🏻 Truly.

[@user-yj4dk9qf2g]

Drone Gimballed down on table surface.

[@CaliforniaPhantom]

What about the year of free DJI refresh Russ? For Anker you said 45 buck instead of 45 water, but corrected yourself.

[@pslaathaug]

you tied to fold the RC2 antennas the wrong way lol. (thats my guess)

[@sarhanalhabsi]

Dji mini 4 Vs Avata 2 for the first time drone owner??

[@karlbecker8775]

I cringed a little when I saw the RC lying face down on the table. LOL

[@iverhaug8031]

Hey, i have a question for you. Last year I got my hands on the mini 2 se and it’s been great. But I am thinking of upgrading to a more capable/more fun drone. The options I am considering right now are between the Air 3/mini 4 pro, Avata 2 or wait for the Air 3s. I have had some fun with the mini but it looks so fun to fly and fpv drone. I would like to get your opinion on which drone you would recommend😄

[@LIVINGINFARGO]

Where should I install the strobe light on a mini 4 pro? Is it for a manned aircraft above to see , or for other drone operators on the ground to see?

[@51Drones]

It’s for manned aircraft. It’s best to place it on top.

[@jonahkaiguam]

You put the Mini 4 pro down and the gimbal is facing downward at the table....could possibly scratch the lens

[@alexanderdavis8691]

Bought a DJI drone after your previous video haha

[@DeltaMartian]

I don’t see your hat on your website. Do you sell them individually?

[@fanom1]

Saw the props right off..lol

[@scottsyoutubevideos]

hi.. love good drone. i have the dji min 2.. its old .. but goes okay.. :-) Australian fan. 🙂

[@billgrace9415]

You put FPV props in the case instead os mini 4 pros

[@PortugalCarp]

@51Drones Another great video, thanks for posting. I have a question, with that sunshade fitted, will the controller fit into the Symik P330 case?

[@adrianmotovlog31]

[@markkempton4579]

I'm too late to win, and I was wearing my 51 Drones hat all day yesterday anyhow, but what is that triple prop from?

[@51Drones]

Avata 2

[@OpsPt5]

You put the antennas on the RC3 down in the wrong order.

[@richsadventure9736]

You put different propellers in the case

[@Ralph073]

You left the SD card on the Table and the Adapter behind the Case.

[@LIVINGINFARGO]

You stick the strobe light under or above a mini 4 pro?

[@judgehastheword9069]

Captain drone had Master Airscrew Props on his channel like 2 weeks ago I ordered them for my DJI Mini 3 Pro different colors. I tried them I was amazed with the sound how much quit they are. They are not high priced. I like the bright colors you can see the drone so much better. I am going to check on the carrying case for the mini 3 pro. An the sun visor to. I wish the remote for the mini 3 pro had Antenna's for it. Wouldn't that make it go out farther with out losing signal with the antennas? I wanted to ask to the goggles for the mini 3 pro with the antennas would help with getting a better signal at a farther distance?? Hope you can help me with this??

[@51Drones]

Not any better signal.

Need a 100 watt charger for dji air 3

[@jonahkaiguam]

I use the Anker 737...it's 120W and it charges my Mavic 3 batts fast as heck

[@w.e.s.]

Anker 30 bucks

[@classicroger]

It's good, but I just ordered the Power 1000. As soon as the Mavic 3 cable is back in stock, I'll order a couple of them.

You know that light needs to be mounted on top of the drone.

[@neilrampersad4291]

It should be 3 Statute miles

[@thecorporategypsy]

I don’t fly at night but do need help finding the drone in the sky. The belly light on the mini 4 pro is ok but not sufficient once up at 150+ feet. Does this strobe make it more visible in the day?

[@51Drones]

Not really. You almost need like 4 of them to really make a difference in daytime visibility.

[@thecorporategypsy]

@@51Drones thank you thats helpful

[@w.e.s.]

You said 1006 instead of 1066 card...hope i got the funny thing you said right.

[@AdventuresUnlimited-xc3gp]

Am I only only one pronouncing it “Star Trek” (Startrc)?

[@brandon9689]

NGL I kind of regret spending the extra money on the RC2. I've had my Mini 4 barely 2 months and already it's getting pretty slow. I've had a few times that it takes literal minutes to boot up and other times I'm in camera view in 30-45 seconds. Unless your phone is broken or horribly outdated just save yourself the money and use the RC-N2 with your phone.

[@kuyashobbies3914]

You said “7” batteries instead of “6” and you put a different props inside the case

[@justglaze3571]

There’s no sound

[@filmntech]

Hey Russ, Great video! I've recently started selling a 3D printed DJI Mini 2 handheld gimbal converter (The most recent upload on my channel), and I was wondering if you would be interested in trying it out. It's designed to convert your drone into a handheld camera effortlessly. If you're up for it, I'd be happy to send one over for you to test and give your opinion on. Let me know if you're interested!😀

[@erickwinebrenner9827]

You lost me at Kane Brown…

[@pslaathaug]

lol Are you in GF now? My wife and her friends went to that concert. Alerus sucks for acoustics ;)

[@51Drones]

It totally does. So much echo and couldn’t hear anything the artists said when they talked. Great concert though!

[@pslaathaug]

@@51Drones The wife said the same thing. but they still enjoyed it. Glad you guys did too.

[@spec24]

I spent a thousand bucks on my drone but can't swing that extra 8 bucks. Holy cow. No wonder people are crying about not being able to afford health care.

[@rifsm1]

You put the wrong sd card in your drone

[@SelvaggioEmpatico]

I had Samsung evo plus 512gb recommended on official DJI site and had the same info in app about too slow microSD, changed it on guarantee in shop and for now with new card everything looks good. For now… it has 130mb/s write speed

[@baronlund9725]

[@NotAbnormalGaming]

​@@shattlea1 brotha it's clearly a typo

[@Friskydingle]

[@SelvaggioEmpatico]

About microSD: not as fast as sandisk. Please guys have a look at write speed > it is different. Slower than sandisk Please try to say truth on channel.

[@51Drones]

Not sure what you mean about truth? I did not say that they were equal Write speed. I simply said these are the two cards that I use. And they both work very well in my Mini 4 Pro. 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@SelvaggioEmpatico]

@@51Drones so maybe there is a mistake from my side! sorry, I’m glad you answer. Best thing is to test speed of microSD card and see there is no more than 100mb/s write because on package they said TO 130mb/s it doesn’t mean that they will sell card with almost 130, more less it’s about 90

[@KrustyKlown]

Mini 4 is a small portable drone .. that HUGE Case is not.

[@PauldeSilvaG]

USD$21 for a mini strobe light is too high. It's can be got for far less.
