Drone Comparison

I've been flying drones now for almost 10 years, so I have a little experience and know what to look for in a drone, enough to spot the good from the bad.
So I thought I'd make this video to show you what drones I'm using now and why, along with an overview & demonstration of my drones.
Here are links to the drones shown in this video-
DJI NEO - amzn.to/41tBayK
Hover Air X1 - amzn.to/4ilrOvd
DJI Mini 4 Pro - amzn.to/4imZFE0
DJI Mavic 3 L2D-20c Hasselblad - amzn.to/41mmgKD

Great vlog John thanks

[@SimplyMotorhoming]

Great review, John, exactly the detail l needed, thank you.

[@ian_morg]

The shot at 18:38 is just stunning! Great video, thanks John.

[@GadgetJohn]

It’s such a beautiful place, Glencaple in Scotland

[@Brian-ug3cy]

Very good video John, I learned a lot, thanks👍

[@geoffcampbell7846]

Nice one John. Some of the cinematography you've captured with the drones has been spectacular, and shows you've developed a keen eye for a shot. The one of the van on that precipice you included here from your Spanish desert trip is brilliant and only a drone could capture the drama of the location. That clip would easily fit into the final scene of a feature film 🎥 I remember the effort it took to get to that spot too, but it was certainly worth it and the shot has a triumphant feel about it. Take care. 👋🇬🇧🇪🇺🇺🇦🇮🇪

[@Moonlightshadw1]

Brilliant thank you. I’ve always fancied getting a drone but not known where to start so this has given me food for thought.

[@bleeno6187]

I have a couple of DJI drones John and thanks for sharing your views on the ones you own. Great video for those thinking of buying one!

[@walkerbay6373]

Excellent video! Thanks!

[@jackiestokes6502]

I thought I’d be quiet bored but found this very interesting.. certainly looking into the first two Drones for family camping trips next years adventures xx

[@leemillington7164]

Great video John 👍

[@stevehewson8903]

Great video....👍👍👍👍

[@helenandjohnsadventures]

I think you should also have touched on the licencing requirements, as they also differ per type of drone which also will influence someone's choice.

[@GadgetJohn]

I’m not the fun police.

[@NeilDethml]

Great review John. Are you restricted more flying with the Mavic due to the weight?

[@GadgetJohn]

I’m a licensed responsible pilot, however, I’m not a fan of the fun police. So in all honesty every drone can do bad things if you’re going to fly that way, otherwise fly it right and you’ll be fine.

[@pageant1fd]

The footage you recorded with the campervan on the cliff of that peninsula always appeals to me ; which drone was used if you can remember John. Thanks for sharing.

[@GadgetJohn]

That was the mavic 3 shown in this video 👍🏻

[@pageant1fd]

@@GadgetJohn thanks John , your photography is top draw.

[@GadgetJohn]

Thank you 😎

[@wevegonetouring]

I hope Santa watched this as I've been very good !!

[@jamesmackay4652]

You do drone on,hehe,thanks for another great informative vid.

[@GadgetJohn]

😂

[@MarcelEling]

Thnx for video. Is the range of the drones most of the time half an hour?

[@GadgetJohn]

No, most drone batteries last for 10 to 15 mins

[@MarcelEling]

@GadgetJohn Okay, thnx. I thought it was a bit longer:)

[@victor007ven]

[@dafadowndilly8919]

Very interesting John. Question: Does there come a time when DJI stop supporting their drones? I was thinking of getting one in the 2nd hand market.

[@GadgetJohn]

That’s a question for DJI. I’m just a customer.

[@ashbyspannerman]

I’ve got two DJI’s the original Mavic Air and the Air 2s, the air is getting on a bit now but still flies fine, just be very cautious buying second hand as there is a scam doing the rounds where the drone is still locked to the original owners account, DJI won’t unlock it, then the seller asks for more money to unbind it!

[@hanadventures]

John I know this is not one of the drones that you have spoke about today but have just purchased not received yet RDM FX Pro Elite what do you think? Any chance of your opinion?👍

[@GadgetJohn]

Sorry, I’ve never heard of it.

[@hanadventures]

@ that’s not good thanks for coming back to me👍will let you know how it goes 🤞

[@Y24JAW]

👍🏼🚐📹

[@OurHappyPath]

Thanks for an interesting review video John. If you don't need that DJI Neo, I can PM our address 😂 #cheekyask 😁

[@GadgetJohn]

That’s cheeky considering I paid £160 for it! So I’ll return it so I get my money back 👍🏻

[@OurHappyPath]

@GadgetJohn Going to have a look at second hand market, see if we can find any. Failing that, I might write to Santa 🤶 🧑‍🎄 Great review vlog though, very helpful for us making a choice 👍

[@An.Individual]

Just get the Mavic Pro then you don't need the others

[@GadgetJohn]

They’ve not made that one for a long time.
