JJRC X12 Aurora (Eachine EX4, C-Fly Faith) Wind Test

[@wmsammons]

As mentioned once or twice in posts, you have a vivid reason for why this is a great value drone, the gimbal and software are amazing! 4K stills and 1080p, should keep most happy for some time. Cheers!

[@vlad_sadici]

Hi! I own this drone and I can't Take 4k pictures. Only 1080p. I use CFly app. How can you Take 4k images?

[@ChadB]

The one I'm flying in the video is not the 4k version so If you have the version with 4k photo then I'm not sure how you would activate it.

[@elipin4128]

Vlad Sadici double check you have the 4K version as they made a 1080 first. I’m pretty sure I also have a 1080 Ver as well

[@rocketsledd]

Ha! Greetings from an Ex-Woodbridger. Thanks for the vid.

[@TonioElChinio]

hello my friend, when I press the button to record a video, I put an SD card under the camera, the video and recorded twice, once on my SD card and once in the file of the smartphone, normal

[@shaunthedrone]

Thumbs up ere' Chad, fellow Drone Seekers - great test, did well in the wind - many thanks for sharing the info :)

[@user-bubstech]

I wonder if there were 20mph and 28mph gusts if this would come back the videos o see like the sjrc f11 pro has no problem with wind And also I never heard you change any mode for speed is there none or 3 speeds because that what getting you home tilt and speed =git home with it plus some common sence Lived the video but still have the speed section to awnser

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Nice job Chad. 👍

[@ChadB]

Thanks Marcus!

[@craigme2583]

So can you tell it to return to the transmitter, or must it return to launch site - which is not ideal...? Can you turn off the low batt beep?

[@ChadB]

This drone can only return to the home site. It vibrates when it has low battery

[@Donnykhuana77]

This drone can handle extreme wind condition???

[@stevebemish412]

Did you have any trouble connecting the app to the controller. Can’t get mine to fly

[@ChadB]

I had no problem connecting.

[@stephano1221]

I've heard that your phone needs to support 5Ghz WiFi in the 802.11ac generation (WiFi 5) in order to connect to the controller. You can see if your phone supports this by looking at its specifications online.

[@stevebemish412]

Nathan Cole yes my phone supports the 802.11

[@russellk.bonney8534]

That thing is a budget DJI Mavic mini. I guess we need to remember it's a toy with toy video but it's still pretty good overall. That wind is strong for any drone. Even the mini will go back to the last spot. You have to set the Home point and RTH height before each flight.

[@mjxdrones7123]

Good test 👍

[@rtoebak76]

Nice flight review. Ordered one and seeing the gimbal is doing a great job. Wind maybe tossing it around, but it is holding up 😃🇳🇱

[@ChadB]

Thanks

[@djmhst]

Hii waar heb jij hem besteld?? En spijt ervan... Of aanrader?? Gr

[@rtoebak76]

@@djmhst Het is een heel leuk ding, maar nog steeds niet gevlogen. Van de video's die ik gezien heb wel een aanrader. Ik heb het volledige pakket genomen met 3 accu's. Misschien dat ik hem ongevlogen weg doe. Wellicht interesse? Lol

[@djmhst]

@@rtoebak76 wat is de reden? 🤣 Als de prijs goed is vaker er altijd eens te praten. Ik weet niet hoe ik een pb kan sturen 😇

[@rtoebak76]

@@djmhst Hij heeft wel 250euro gekost. Afgezien ook nog douanekosten. Dus daar ligt de prijs al. Het is een zwart met witte bovenkant, 4k en 3 baterrijen. Dus als je nog steeds interesse hebt hoor ik het wel.

[@DroneDelirium]

Great video thanks!

[@breeknow]

I had a p4 pro and I’m dying to get my hands in one of those. Seems like fun.

[@ChadB]

Really...while it nothing like the p4 pro, but it is fun.

[@mitchellbaker3311]

I bought one yesterday and it's being returned tomorrow. Save your money and don't buy this rubbish. Bugs 7 photo and video quality is much better and almost 1/2 the price

[@breeknow]

Mitchell Baker when I want quality I fly my p4p. When I want to do some nonsense (responsibly) I fly my ex4.

[@milleringram2675]

So does everybody notice the yaw. It is so, so slow! Is the a program to increase the yaw?

[@ChadB]

There now adjustment for the yaw speed.

[@elipin4128]

The Yaw being so slow may be a good thing if your using it for photography with the 3 axis gimbal it can be used for some entry level business needed. I use it for Realestate and home inspections. Works out Perfect

[@TonioElChinio]

@@ChadB hello chad how to improve the drone for a smoother rotation because of this, jello and losciliattion appear on the video the 3-axis gimbal and not well Do you have a solution thank you chad

[@adnanhasany]

What adjustment chad? I don't found nothing

[@YanisFafis]

Nice presentation - is this a 4K video drone? what is the total flight time?

[@ChadB]

This one is 1080p video. They have a 4k version but it's 4k pictures not video. Advertised flight time is 25 mins. I get between 20-22mins

[@YanisFafis]

@@ChadB thank you!!!

[@vlad_sadici]

@@ChadB I don t have a 4k pictures setting în CFly app. I record only 1080p pictures. Which app do you use?

[@ericcharlton311]

Chad B. Which of your drones is best in wind?

[@ChadB]

Although its not the greatest stability, the FIMI does better than the Zino 2 and JJRC

[@ericcharlton311]

Chad B. Thanks so much for replying!!

[@bubberpost]

I fought with this drone for 2 to 3 days determined to find the trick to calibrating it and I was ready to give up then I tried this and it WORKED for me over and over again so listen up and try this. 1: First Press the button on the back of the drone to turn it on. you now have a BLUE flashing light on the drone this is telling you it is trying to connect to the controller so turn the controller on and when it is connected the light on the drone will turn GREEN and it will be flashing NOW connect the phone to your controller. now on the phone, it should say in preparation, but your NOT ready to do the calibration yet, what until the light on the drone goes GREEN and is NOT flashing now on your phone, it should say READY-GO BUT It's NOT READY. NOW it's ready for the calibration because you have enough satellite lights only when the light goes green and not flashing. The lights on the controller are ONLY telling you what mode you're controller is in and NOT that you are connected to anything some people thought that. NOW this is what I MUST DO to get the dam thing to calibrate, the horizontal works fine every time BUT I could NOT get the vertical to work it would say it was a success but it was NOT. the drone was still in calibration mode. On the drone, it has a RED/GREEN light flashing which is vertical calibration mode. SO what to do? well, this works for me 7 out 10 times instead of never working at all. When you do the calibrate first off some apps say calibrating in blue on the phone when you see that it ISN'T tap the blue calibrating Button again until you see it say TURN THE DRONE the light on the drone will start flashing from green to red/blue I have seen some people try to calibrate it when it was NOT ready to do so. NOW when it says turn the drone horizontally do it about 3 times the light on the drone turn to RED/GREEN the horizontal calibration is dun and NOW the trick that works about 7 out of 10 times for me WHEN it tells you to put the camera up and turn it watch your phone and PUT the camera DOWN give it a quick half-turn then do it again if you don't see your phone then tell you to turn it again do another half turn but if you do see on your phone turn it again flip the Drone camera up words and then turn it two or three times. This almost works every time for me and it's the ONLY way I can get it to calibrate.

[@kano4282]

Not bad for a budget drone under such crappy conditions.

[@ChadB]

Yup...has good range too.

[@kano4282]

@@ChadB I just picked 1 up for a Christmas present! It should go over real well.

[@marcofuentes1846]

I think that video is great for the wind... thought you did it a bit of a disservice for the great stable vídeo it took.

[@ahmadsutrisna8825]

I'm so sad.. Would you like buy some battery from my jjrc x12, because last time i had some accidents.. Huhuhuhu

[@baxterdequito7861]

you should put this bird in a higher altitude of about 8 meters once it takes off in order it can stabilize GPS connection..

[@revolutionsallit2472]

I use that app it’s called UAV

Should not flying in that kinda wind any way...🤨
