KF104 Max Review with Screen Controller

[@jusblazzinshabazz6794]

Caper great video. I just purchased this drone yesterday. Gonna try and fly on Monday. It'll come back and give my review. I currently own a potensic atom the latest 3 Axis Gimbal.. EXCELLENT drone for the money and cheaper than this 1

[@gooddaysdroningmattgoode4353]

It proves that it can be done with a screen RC that's two companies now doing it nice drone and RC 😊

[@capeRCouple]

Not too bad eh

[@jaxturner7288]

You think dji was the only one that offered a controller with a built in touch screen until now? 😂😂😂 That’s could only be true if you never actually looked for one. You could get built in screens from companies besides dji for years now. 👊

[@capeRCouple]

@@jaxturner7288 yes but dji started continuously giving them,fimi and hubsamn had them years ago but didn't stick with it for some reason

[@jaxturner7288]

@@capeRCouple there are more companies than those two that still do offer screens. So….like I said.

[@joseluispiressantos6519]

Thank you. From Brazil. I like the screen on the remote.

[@renec0327]

I think is expensive price, the drones has some updated abd controller looks nice that's all

[@capeRCouple]

yes it is too much money and much better out there for the cost

[@patdabarber118]

Its just like the AE86 PRO MAX+. My controller came in Chinese. I fix that, now the map is in Chinese and i have no idea how to change it. Yours came fully loaded. 💯💪🏾🔥💞

[@capeRCouple]

yes mine came working properly with english,no manual doesn't help either.The small manual that comes with the drone doesn't explain much about that transmitter.

[@capeRCouple]

One cool thing about this controller tho is that it has a built in screen recorder,i just recently figured this out.

Hello. Is it possible for you to upload the application from this remote control to the network and let me download it?

[@shapethefuturetech6005]

Nice review, I got one also, it's good for the price, something interesting I found, The antennas of the remote is fake, so you don't need to bother pointing the antennas, the real antenna is internal. The distance showing is also not real, when you fly over 1000m, the distance increase much faster:)

[@capeRCouple]

I never even checked to see if the antennas were there or not,it looked so good i just figured they were there...lol...cost is a little high for me but that's my currency .

Is this better than potensic

[@capeRCouple]

@@kuyajayyoutubechannel5389 no,not even close,the transmitter is nice but no,nowhere near the potensic atom

[@douglasmanor4427]

I'm thinking about getting this drone so you advise not to get the obstacle avoidance?

[@capeRCouple]

the avoidance on these budget drones is garbage and only works sometimes depending on the lighting.I find the K11 turbodrone to be the better drone and it also comes with a screen controller but the kf104 has a much better screen controller.

[@jjmalfant]

What's the load on the package drop? Is the package drop working well? I am thinking to use this drone for fishing.

[@capeRCouple]

i haven't tested the drop system on this one yet but will do so next time i take it out and will do a load test on it also.

[@3bilray]

This would have been considered a good drone three years ago. Based on the many problems it might be good for around $200.

[@capeRCouple]

Yes it should be so much cheaper but the camera is up there for a budget drone

[@pelleguess6499]

Hi. Im newbee with drones. Does this model need wifi to start it up and use it? Does one need to connect to wifi at all to fly and take pictures? Can it carry a 33cl bottle with the airdrop? Did the battery time really last as the manufactorer wrote? Nice video. Its good with this many details if one really wants to know more about it. Thanks.

[@capeRCouple]

you do not need wifi to fly,flight time i haven't got to test but i would say atleast 30 min and as for the weight the airdrop can carry im not sure but i believe it is only a few hundred grams carry weight

[@pelleguess6499]

@@capeRCouple Thanks for the reply and info.

[@capeRCouple]

@@pelleguess6499 no problem

[@GorillamansGarage]

I wonder if it will control other KF Drones?? The camera is OK for the price.. probably a 1080p with an upscale algorithm. But that RC is probably worth more than the drone. I'm waiting for Fimi to come out with their Screened RC for the Mini's. 👍👍😎

[@capeRCouple]

Editor picks it up as 4k and i do think the transmitter will control other similar drones like the k11 one does.

[@shapethefuturetech6005]

Probably I can get one to test the end of next month, the screened RC for mini.

Good morning, Kevin! - Is everything "in the green zone" for both of you? - Right! That's how it should be and stay... Your video? Well done! Long-winded unboxing and theoretical explanations of the features tire the viewers. So get the drone out and get it in the air! - It should show what it can do in practice. The various flight modes don't really differ that much between the different types these days. The only question is whether they always work smoothly. - I, for example, wonder what the point of a zoom function is if you can't use it for filming. I'm currently doing a major PC upgrade. It turns out that my AMD Ryzen5-2400 G CPU with Radeon Vega Graphics in combination with my NVIDIA GeForce GTX-1650 is a little too small for editing 4K/60 FPS videos (with Adobe Premiere) that are longer than 5 minutes. Rendering and exporting can take 12 hours or more... Okay... that's all for now. Take care, both of you, and always take care of yourselves!

[@capeRCouple]

im using a geforce 1070 and it does fine editing 4k.Yes my unboxing was a bit long,ill try to make it a little shorter next time or not even do them anymore and just go fly it.

[@natonatter]

You misunderstood me a little, @@capeRCouple I wanted to express that your unboxing was still okay. It just shouldn't be too long. I would like to add that there may well be viewers who want to know every detail during the unboxing, including the technical data.

have you tried reveiwing the l600 pro max? im to broke to buy the kf104 lol

No just the regular l600 so far,i don't have high hopes for the l600 pro max as its range is the same as the one without a gimbal.

which one would u buy , kf104, ae86, k11 ? at my place, kf104 max is the cheapest one.. followed by k11.. n then ae86..

[@capeRCouple]

k11 is the better one out of the kf104 and k11,i never had the ae86 but it looks like they all have the same camera and you can buy the k11 with the screen controller also.

[@bulldogboy100]

I'm guessing the high price is a factor of the transmitter rather than the drone itself. I personally wouldn't buy it

[@capeRCouple]

Yes its the transmitter,makes it $100 more than with the origional one.

[@Ozkar2023]

My holystone toilet bowl and sometimes want to fly to China on its own 😊

Some of the budget drones just have bad gps units in them which is what causes this toiletbowl effect.

@@capeRCouple So I got mine yesterday, but unfortunately, as soon as I launched it up, it went up like 4 metres and then lost control and smashed Down. So life of mine was like 30 seconds. I contacted seller via Aliexpress, but they do not care. So my only chance is probably to order a new one...

[@johnsonbui]

Its look expensive is it good ?😂😂😂😂

[@capeRCouple]

Well at around the $400 mark it is kind of expensive but it does work pretty well,the screen controller is what makes it expensive.

[@slavchez]

The quality is so so bad. The price of this drone should be around 100USD , not 300+ as it is right now. Average FPS (below 30) , Average range, Average gimble stabilization... this drone is a joke. Just buy yourself DJI mini 4k for the same amount of money and check for yourself what quality looks like.

[@capeRCouple]

You have to see it for yourself,no it is nowhere near a dji drone but for a budget drone it is pretty good and screen rc to boot.

[@slavchez]

@@capeRCouple I had L600 PRO MAX and L200 PRO as chinese cheap drones ... this one KF104 looks almost the same as quality as L600 PRO MAX. Camera is shaky , not 30 FPS recording... Only plus is the screen on the controller aaaaand that's it :) If you want to stick with chinese drones for 320 USD you can check SJRC F22 S2 Pro + - this one is almost DJI like, I say almost, because the camera's color range is still average. Nothing like DJI. And I'm talking from my experience. No need to buy KF104 to check the quality of the video. They put similar cameras on those chinese drones :)

[@OndraDvoulety]

After my bad luck with the first KF 104 MAX which is now on the way back as claim, I have now ordered a new one and you can see how nicely it the package drop works at my video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/d3bMpqKqlNJ9f6s

[@driewiel]

Image follow like this is Tripod-mode. Nice feature actually. Drone hovers and you walk or ride past. With GPS follow-me it should not position itself of course. You want to be able to use the sticks and put it in view! Why do Chinese programmers have so much trouble getting it right? My L109 Pro was perfect and only $130. It has nothing to do with the price. It would help if drone reviewers understand how it can and should work. But they are more the 'stand in a field' type because flying drones around is their hobby logically. For me a drone just a small part of my bike trips. No matter how fantastic the camera is, if I can't launch the drone nice and quick in real life situations the thing is useless. I don't have time to spend half an hour on a shot.

[@hiluxmonstertruckgleno6276]

This drone looks identical to the ae86 pro max drone!!

[@capeRCouple]

I think they just have diff body styles,i may pick up the ae86 to see if my screen controller works with it as you can get it now with that transmitter.

[@hiluxmonstertruckgleno6276]

I have 5 of ae86 pro max plus drone s Love this drone Awsome drone for the money

​@@hiluxmonstertruckgleno6276 I just purchased this drone yesterday gonna try and fly on Monday. I will come back to this channel and tell everyone what I think. I own a potensic atom great drone.. and cheaper than this 1..

[@driewiel]

Gimbal works better than the other one. And it's strange but the follow-me should be more accurate with the GPS build-in the controller. But like I said they just don't know how to program it. Has little to do with the hardware.

[@capeRCouple]

most of these budget companies do not know what we want in a drone

[@driewiel]

@@capeRCouple It's like they make them on purpose not as good as DJI. Of course DJI doesn't even have follow-me, only active-track. Except for the Inspire. Real backpacker's drone.
