DJI FPV Drone Long Term Review | I Finally Understand It!

[@peanutman6593]

Almost everyone wants to tinker and change the performance. I just got mine, I have never flown a drone before and it is exactly what I want. I’ll probably never take it past sport mode and that’s just fine with me. I don’t plan on crashing because I’m not gonna do tricks or race it ever. Just cruise around looking at stuff and appreciate it for what it was designed for.

[@ihtishamulhaq951]

Very correct. 🌻

[@Beyrouth_]

Then you should’ve bought a Mavic air you noob

[@ChuckFickens1972]

@@Beyrouth_ Ah yes, the welcoming voice to any hobby, Calling someone out as a "noob" Way to make more people join your hobby, insult them, be insular and make them not feel welcome, top work!

[@BeatBoxBrian]

@@ChuckFickens1972 Agreed. Saying noob was uncalled for. But, having both, the fpv in sport mode is kind of the worst parts of both drones combined because it only has a 1-axis gimbal rather than the 3 from the other DJI drones for super cinematic shots, and it’s not able to get the feeling of flying like a super hero you can get in manual mode. If you have it, it’s worth practicing on the simulator app and then trying for real by switching to manual mode really high in the air and hovering your finger over the break just in case. I’m telling you, it’s so much more fun and fulfilling. For heavens sake though, please continue to err on the side of caution if your gut tells you to. A 100 mile-per-hour flying chunk of plastic with spinning blades could kill someone. Be safe, and have fun!

[@LilLighT_]

It was designed for stunts

[@supernatural802]

I'm not going to lie. took it out yesterday and was loving it. the range is insane. love the "what i see is what i get" from the camera as well. Still cant pull off tricks as smoothly as the custom builds can but for that long-range "fpv" cinematic stuff it's fantastic. it's also hella fast. lol.

[@ihackyourtoaster3021]

Definitely got me into the world of fpv. I was clearly missing out. Glad I got it. Never looking back!

[@mike-stirling]

Dude! Tell that you were flying at Bayport and Bayou Drive in this video?! Wild to randomly see video of my backyard!

[@kirkdoede2857]

Just bought one. Did a lot of research before dropping the 1200$ so i knew exactly what i was getting. I've been flying planes and helis close to 50 years. Drone is rock solid in my opinion. Took it out in my back yard yesterday which is fairly confined and was very nervous with the investment. Its very unnerving to put googles on and trust it for the first time especially after flying planes and helis, if you loose site of them their gone. So the first takeoff i didn't use the googles and lifted off and stopped at 100Ft. let go of the sticks and it stuck right where i left it. So i put the googles on and flew it around my subdivision. My only mistake was how long the flight time is, they tell you 20 minutes which is not even close to being true. i think i was just over 10 min and wasn't paying attention to the battery life and the low battery alert popped up. This is not good on your first flight and no drone experience. It was up high and 4 houses down so i hit the return to home button and it started coming back but very slow (normal mode). I was afraid it was much to slow so i took the googles off and took it out of return to home mode and flew it back quickly and landed it safely. This morning did a complete flight with the googles without any problems. So i have to agree with this review. I think DJI is shooting for a beginner fpv package which isn't good for the advanced fpv flyer or even someone wanting it strictly for photography but to put everything into one package and make a decent platform for all of it. I believe if you let the drone do what they designed it for in normal mode it would be very difficult to crash it even someone with no flying experience. With that being said i would NOT recommend it to anyone that hasn't had any type of r/c flying experience. Always get help especially with the cost of this drone and the dangers involved.

[@jamesbond-pr5jl]

worth having the drone? As in been wanting to go digital but don't know if to get another drone or just goggles im using the aomway v1 i think right now so been itching.

[@kirkdoede2857]

@@jamesbond-pr5jl Well I guess it depends on what your looking for. I went straight to digital and it's much better than analog for video in everything I have seen. The expense of this drone make it a big loss if you fly manual and crash it or worse yet lose it. I'm still worried over water and long distance. Also now you have to deal with the FFA which defeats the whole purpose of long distance and flying by yourself. I was a ways away and dropped it down to about 50ft and lost complete video, it went into return home and went up and I got the video right back. All in all it's amazing technology but it's also pricey too.

[@jamesbond-pr5jl]

@@kirkdoede2857 well mostly wanted new goggles and the safety things might be nice sometimes and was just going to use an amazon card interest-free and get a drone and goggles haha. will not really "have to" deal with FFA with one of the custom 7"

[@ibrahimalrabiah1179]

@@jamesbond-pr5jl my suggestion is yiu can go with digital goggles and buy URAV Module to use it as analog if you which and buy receiver of what you want to bind with your multiprotcol receiver , as less than one year started with fpv, the point is analougue is cheaper in every peice game of it and little best performance for those who are professionals , digital is nice and better for biggner but expensive, so if you have dji googles you can transfer to digital whenever you want!!

[@princevalencia8816]

@@kirkdoede2857 “pricey” is subjective. I am aware that you can build an fpv drone half the price with more or less features depending on what you want to do with it. But for the original msrp of $1300 and now currently at $999 in March 2022, it’s a freaking steal imho. I bought my first drone (dji phantom) for $999 many years ago, then upgraded to the Mavic Pro for the same price 5 years ago. When shopping for the DJI PV after just seeing footage, I would’ve thought it would’ve cost more seeing as the new Mavic is $2000. The FPV at $999 was an easy decision. Sold my used Mavic Pro with 4 batteries & accessories to a real estate broker for $600. Lmao. The FPV will only cost me $399 net plus tax. Again, msrp being “pricey” is subjective.

[@benwilcox9988]

This drone brought me in to the FPV world. Absolutely love it, and really have enjoyed learning.

[@EagleEyeProductions]

I use the DJI FPV drone. Have 14 batteries and have put the hours on like no other. Have been fully satisfied with it. I originally got it for the speed and to fly in normal gps DJI style but Its been my introduction to FPV manual mode. Battery life is everything tho. Thanks for your review! I’ve only ever flown DJI but have abused them chasing races for days and hours for fun. Mavic zoom is my other. The new batteries have less issues than the mavic 2 pro/zoom where I’ve losses close to 40 batteries some of which only had 3-8 charges on them.

[@kirkwolf4709]

😄 And I thought having 6 now was going to 'be enough' 👍👍

[@ZappedLife]

I have had this drone since day 1..and I love it still. Fly it almost everyday! Even used my care refresh week one after diving my 1st FPV into the ocean. I'm a DJI fan for life.

[@Politicallyhomeless957]

lol…dude…build your own…Fawk Chyna

[@bradrobison5213]

I’m curious to how the DJI care plan works when you fly it into the ocean. I can’t imagine that you retrieved it and sent it in, right? Did they take your word for it and send you another one? What happened?

[@andrewut7ya511]

Quick note about the heat buildup on an analog drone. you can set vtx to pit mode until armed so you can sit with battery plugged in if needed or after a crash you can disarm to cut power to vtx so you can walk not run to your downed machine.

[@maxxx765]

8:08 what do you mean by that? set them up to discharge through the dji app?

[@BrandonBeans]

Crushed shadows was my biggest complaint. I actually really enjoyed my time with it when I had it for review, I almost bought one for myself but opted for a more traditional long range cinematic build in the end. I will say that the worry-free return to home and airbrake feature are pretty nice and super confidence inspiring, even for an experienced fpv pilot.

[@yo_lo2984]

All i need this drone for is getting cinematic of cars and following them at a higher speed is this able to do that

[@Thorny8]

Just out of curiosity. When you talked about how the FAA dinged you about a beacon on your drone. Did you get reported or did they see a video?

[@Levi-ci7yo]

The DJI FPV drone is my favorite drone that I’ve ever owned. So versatile, as im more of a “flow” cinematic pilot. Can do some tight spaces, but mostly excels in open air, and is probably the best drone for object tracking that I’ve ever touched. My big downsides are price and weight. Price, of course, being a massive turndown and a huge financial burden if you crash, and the weight takes the response time and multiplies it. Regardless, this is my favorite drone that I’ve had , and would 100% recommend for beginner FPV pilots.

[@divingfalconfpv4602]

I don't see how for beginners. Expensive to fix. And it will eventually break unless you fly real easy and safe. Especially for a beginner that's hard

[@DeMicFPV]

So I just got this quad as someone who has always built. You hit the nail on the head with your comment about shots that give you anxiety. I am so excited to send this quad over water and not have to stress

[@NiuNiuMcCourt]

I have to say i really love your open-minded attitude, great job ❤️🙏

[@My_Alchemical_Romance]

Great review. It was my first foray into FPV, and a year later-and 1 severely mild crash-I love it.

[@ihtishamulhaq951]

I use my dji fpv with Propellers gaurd and it gives me huge confidence especially in sports mode. It's a perfect friend made in China. 🌻

I really love your editing style I especially enjoyed the synch at the beginning and in the end with the song🤍

[@colorr-1238]

I picked this up and I'm extremely satisfied. I think this drone like a Porsche is a comfortable nimble drone but could get down to business when you want to. Picking more batteries for this because it's just a blast. And my mini 2 fulfills my cinematic needs.

[@slavpod9202]

Wow this was a thorough review! Thanks! This is my first time seeing your Channel and I subscribed!

The DJI fpv got me into Fpv flying. I’ll keep it but now mostly fly my diy 5” quad.

[@kingbirdfpv]

same here! after 12 day flying the DJI FPV in manual (for first time ever) + 3 crashes (with no damage) I switched rapidly to a 6S 5" quad. Now my DJI FPV is for cinematic and long range only

[@rebecca-munro]

Great video. Thank you. I love how you keep it real. Just ordered the go pro mount. Excited to try it out. Amazing reviews too. Thanks again.

[@richarchdale6522]

Exactly like alot of others are saying. With out this I wouldn't be in the fpv/acro freestyle type of flying. I now can build and fly my own, but this was a huge stepping stone for me!

[@trackhawkfpv2667]

Can you link the Gemfan props you recommend? I have the hurricanes from your previous video. You think the 4s are that much better?

[@AerRider]

I would never have entered the FPV and acro world without the introduction of this DJI product (and Ken’s accessory innovations). 100+ hrs in the sim and perhaps 50+ IRL, and I have been able to integrate cine style into my commercial work. I really can’t ask for more from a plug n play product that also offers GPS, barometric, and Vision sensor stabilization when desired. Note for Ken: I do most flying slow and at 10-15 degree gopro angle and find I’m picking up some occasional props in the shot (4x3 reelsteady). Also, about 10 min battery time doing cine work with hero 8 mounted.

[@Fullgame007]

I just got mine recently and i love it!

Sure it’s bought not built and can’t be field fixed like a home built rig, but still my favorite to fly. It starts a lot of conversations out when flying. I’m a good ambassador for FPV. I wish I had a second pair of goggles for ride-a-longs. Agree with your assessment Ken.

[@kirkwolf4709]

Thanks for taking the time to post this vid. I am "That Guy" in which you are referring to. This is my first Drone and can see I now will at some point be adding to a collection as I get more involved (addicted) to this realm. I too have experienced 2 crashes, dealt with the DJI repair plan but feel it's a bit less durable than I am. I have found that altitude at the moment is the best cure for working on my manual mode skills (thanks for your display of your control setting for CS, MR and EXPO) and really have little fear in the Sport mode for skimming a foot above any water (awesome footage and sense of speed in that zone). One question I have (sorry if you've already posted some info on this that I have'nt found yet) in regard to your choice of antennae on your goggles. I have found with the stock I am getting quite a distance, a mile plus in open areas or direct line (noticing a big difference in that between early spring with no leaves on the trees vs full foliage) and was under the impression that the 2.4 GZ is better for that due to wavelength. Which ones are those that you have and reason for choosing? Thanks for any reply! Oh, I have found that as painfully docile the additional motion controller I purchased along with that standard game style controller is, I seem to consistently get a better distance even yet from it (the motion controller/pistol grip type I speak of). I looked in the goggle menu to perhaps find some settings that apply to address this but have not found anything. Thanks again! Appreciate your Posts!

[@HartPv]

I have the Kona Blue edition paired with some blue Dalprop Spitfire props and it looks sick - awesome job with those they work so well. You're spot on with the use case, the DJI is a way to get people into FPV and for cinematic flying when you want the failsafes and convenience factor.

[@RYP3]

I crashed mine, and yesterday I finally fixed it, got the prop adaptors, and I replaced the gps unit from a crash trying to power loop a goal post, and it took off without any errors and I’m going to take it for a proper flight today 👍🏼👍🏼

[@MarcoAntonio_72]

Hey...what memory card are ya using? both on the drone and the goggles? mainly curious on what size one would need for a 3 battery flight

Hey Ken I used your freestyle rates and they work perfectly for me you rock bro

[@OriginaldoBo]

Right on man! Love hearing this

[@maximolopez9135]

I really appreciate that you said it clearly, it has its public, only because it wasn't the way people learnt before does not mean is bad. I do believe that for cinematic shots its an excellent drone, not everyone is interested in the Acro/Freestyle. Thanks for the great video. 🔥

[@FightingMSA]

Just ordered mine today. It is a great entry for myself like you said who is more of a hobbyist. It will be nice to compare the Avata with it.

[@pidy5534]

@OriginaldoBo or @community do you have any tipps on reducing/removing micro vibrations with a gopro 10 mounted on top? The better quality of gopros is not as usefil when the footage contains vibrations. Currently have new props but crashed it once.

[@DroneLifeRC]

I recently bought this drone... still trying to learn it.. LOve your props on yours..

[@cottoncb]

A few things I would like to see them do is a super sport mode that makes the sport mode a little more aggressive with higher speeds and increased ascend and descend profiles for “simulated dives”. I would like to see a camera upgrade more like the avata camera for better footage than the stock camera. The last thing I would like to see is an actual carbon fiber arm kit. From you I would like to see a clamp for the controller that could hold a small tablet like the iPad mini six. Love your stuff and your honest unbiased reviews that we don’t get from the glamtubers.

A good accessory is Dji's arm braces, I highly recommend 👍

[@handoromper7987]

You get it 100% I find not only FPV people but groups in general think there special when there really not. FPV is a toy a hobby that’s it, nothing special not life changing. And if the FPV community really wanted to grow and they do not, they would embrace anything that would help them grow. But sadly they think there something special when in reality there just kids that can afford expensive toys and nothing more. Great post and keep saying it as it is real.

[@rinatuga]

I loved your video. Can you please clear my doubts? I went to use Motion Controller 1 and the glasses said that the firmware was out of date. Through the DJi fly website I did the update and the same error still occurs. what can be wrong?

[@gabriellorenzo6589]

You forgot to mention, you can hand catch and hand release this fpv which is a big deal especially when on a boat 👌 i was a skeptic at first but when I got mine, I’m really loving it! It’s truly a cinematic fpv beast

[@CesiumSalami]

Are you referring to hand catching this over other DJI stuff. I'd rather catch my 8" custom quads vs. the DJI drone - for whatever reason just haven't mastered that with the DJI quad :)

[@nikitasfakar265]

Watching again this video. I’ve crashed “seriously” my Dji fpv on cables and trees wearing though the braces not for crashing but for stability still rocking still flying.

[@nhillerby1]

Question: if you remove the gps module, will the drone still fly? No more geofencing? No more return to home I assume also.

[@ironsmithindustries3761]

I bought mine as a gateway into fpv. I love flying it but I'm now going to build my own to get proficient with manual so if I crash it it's easy and relatively cheap to fix

[@CLMcrawlers]

My dji fpv drone was hovering bout 6 feet in air, and a dog came out of a time portal or from somewhere out of nowhere and jumped up and slammed my drone to concrete... only propellers were lik messed up... it flipped over once also(I put propellers on wrongly🤦‍♂️) and again, only propellers damaged... but for investigating big buildings and relaxed flying and just ease of operation, this drone is nice... it's not necessarily built/shaped the best for acro, but it all around great for beginners, or experienced fpv pilots, just to have fun with... I was up in air and on goggle screen, it said: "manned aircraft approaching" and sure enough, bout 1 to 2 minute later, a passenger aircraft passed over... wen the aircraft left my view, it said in the goggles: "manned aircraft left airspace"... and the RTH has worked 6 out of 6 times that I've used it and landed within 3 feet or less each time... I have 3 batteries and Enjoy an evening of flying from that... I think Sport Mode is the best... thanks for this video also... especially any editing you've dine.. I'm trying editing and it's just not working out for me...lol🤦‍♂️ L8r to all and to all:Have a great day, week and Life...

[@brendoncromwell8138]

can you use the goggles and transmitter with other dji air units?

[@bearlemley]

When landing on snow covered runways way up north, Canadians sprinkle dark cinders on the runway to give the human eye some depth perception. I’m afraid featureless white snow is always going to give you problems. I have six crashes so far on one of my DJI FPV drones. Weird that I haven’t crashed the other one. Three times it been hard enough to pop the battery out which make finding the drone a little more difficult. The battery and drone have tumbled separately down hard packed field for fifty feet I was going so fast. So far I have flown in many locations in Texas and Thailand. I have a room full of piece built drones six pairs of other goggles, antennae, transmitter boosters, controllers, battery chargers, power supplies, spare parts, screws, glue, testing equipment, soldering irons, bolt on cameras and camera mounts. I just don’t go in that room anymore. The dji I wouldn’t use for a thighs drone race course. But for me that is not the only reason to fly a fpv drone. I get 5 to 6 minutes per battery if I am just out having fun and 10 minutes if I have trying to film a sequence. I have eight batteries total. I’ve have my first drone for six months.

[@eyeballs97]

If i just want to fly around fast in sport mode and have fun, and not necessarily film videos, which would you recommend; the dji FPV, Air 2s or mini2? I dont really like the goggles, but with the Air 2s and mini 2 you only get 30 fps live video which i worry is going to make it difficult to fly fast. Im not too interested in manual mode either. But the speed of the FPV is nice. Anyways, would appreciate some input!

Can you tell me how to buy the accessories. Would you have a way of adding a GoPro to the cjifpv eg your helmet.

Please make a Go Pro mount that can snap on the middle part on top of the DJI goggles ! That way we can film the FPV drone taking off and landing FPV style from on top of the googles. Should work well like a Cap Cam mount since we can hear the drone and track it .

Jesus this comment section though. Keep the stupid politics out of a nonpolitical video. It's a long-term review video, nothing more, nothing less. People who don't have the time, energy, resources to learn how to build, go through the trial-and-error, and learn everything about FPV and just want a RTF FPV system that also has helpful technologies for beginning FPV pilots (that usually come from cinematic drones like the Mavic series), regardless of the price. If it's too expensive for you, poorly built, and not your cup of tea, move on and continue being an elitist. ANYWAY, this was a great video and thank you for being transparent while giving a professional review from a true FPV pilot's perspective, and not a cinematic pilot's perspective. (Some people here can't seem to realize that). I think it's a great drone for cinematic pilots that want to have more control and performance. I also accept the fact that we have no control over a private company's decision on design and pricing, I just appreciate it for what it is. As a Mini 2 pilot who uses it for what its designed for, filming, but loves the FPV feel and look, I think this drone is literally aimed at us. (People who use DJI drones to film, but don't have the time, energy, or even the care of learning everything about FPV, because we have lives outside of this hobby.) Sigh, there will always be angry, political, elitist keyboard warriors online, just have to learn to ignore them.

Good to see someone using it properly. I do slightly regret selling mine, but I honestly like my 7" better even though I can't trust it as much as the dji. The 7inch is a drone I don't like to crash, but it is still more repairable than the dji. As far as the gopro, that's the only way to film client work imo. Here's to hoping the DJI osmo action 2 (aka dji session) has Reelsteady like stab 😅
