The new C-FLY Faith 2 Pro Drone is here! Full Review

[@ModernDayTemplar606]

“WOW” I was thinking it was a normal budget Drone but it’s way above that. I think it done very well and with some Firmware updates it will definitely be up there with all the top quality Drones on the market today. Please keep us informed if you get a update. Thanks Captain

[@JETBYE]

@Travel Explorer AU $757.55 its way too much

[@HafizIskandarWazirMohamedNoor]

The C-Fly drone has improved so much and I'm quite surprise.

[@mrmr-hm4xi]

Hi quite suprise. I’m mrmr

[@tahirahmed33]

I'm very surprised

[@squirrely8527]

I watched a vid from the Captain from a few years ago and he’s a LOT better now. 😆 Keep’em coming!!!

[@bodeksrc8007]

Couple of hours ago I was thinking: I wonder when Steve will have this Faith2 from Cfly on his channel? 🤔 And boom! 💥🚀🤜🤛👊 There it is! 🙂😍👍 Drone market has changed soooo much over the last 12months! 😍 I will really struggle now whether to get this one or Fimi mini? 🧐🤔Of course Ill wait first for your review of a new Fimi.

[@JustChillBro37]

WOW!! This drone looks amazing! I've been watching your channel for awhile now and I just want to say thank you so much for these awesome videos, tips and tricks, and especially those videos on which drones to get!! keep it up man I love the amazing work!!

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

Much appreciated!

What is the best app to fly my shoX recon drone

[@RonaldBrown59]

I wasn't expecting the video from the C-Fly to look this good, especially with no camera settings in the app currently. Good review and test flight, especially in those cold conditions.

[@pedagraph1870]

Thanks to your reviews it gave alot of information to decide upon what to buy, i planned for the cfly faith mini 2 but when i saw the Cfly Faith Pro 2 i was Sold with just a few bucks difference

[@natonatter]

The image quality is really impressive - especially for a drone in this price range (€ 243.91 in Germany)! Since my "SJRC F11 4K PRO" occasionally (not every flight) has range problems and flights abruptly abort (fortunately the RTH mode is reliable) the C-FLY Faith 2 Pro seems to me to be a good alternative. Thank you so much for this review!

[@yeahbuddy6852]

From where can you get it for that Price?

[@Editer38738]

Best drone reviewer on KZbin i love your channel

Your welcome Sir! I like the way you review drones I never knew this drone was even a thing lol 😆

[@henrirotthier5710]

The advantage of charging your batteries very slowly is that they will last longer (if you don't go to 0% SOC of course)

[@rayhart7753]

You can speed up the charging time inside the charge port 👍

Captain, between this and Fimi SE 2020, which would you advice on?

[@randyquimpo]

Bottom line questions - hows the image quality? Does it have geo-fencing (NFZs etc)? Smooth transition tilt-up/down or jittery? controls have expo?

[@solarshows1088]

Why is there "Pro" written in the heading and not on the box at 20:51? I Googled it to buy one and "C-Fly Faith 2 Pro" was recommended as a search item thanks to you and the results were just for C-Fly Faith without the Pro. I was confused until I saw the box at 20:51

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

Some stores advertise as a PRO

[@solarshows1088]

@@CAPTAINDRONE798 Your AliExpress link says: CFLYAI GPS 3-Axis Gimbal Drone Quadcopter C-FLY Faith2 Helicopter with 20 Million Pixels Photo 4K Video Ambarella SONY Camera. But with so much data in your videos with a birds eye view through the camera and app screen etc I can't complain so well done. Enough data to buy one so I did (from an alternate Aliexpress seller better for Australia). Nice weather.

[@AdnanAbbasi_LXXVIII]

Excellent review Steve and the quality of the videos and pictures is amazing. Loved the music in the video. It looks so much like a DJI’s mavic spark!

[@freeeagle6429]

Looks pretty nice.. The new alternative of Fimi x8 2020? But is the image quality (sharpness, colors) good enough in this model to be on the same level as Mavic mini or Mini 2?

[@fherny77]

Excellent video captain drone I like the drone but compared with the hubsan zino pro plus which one could be better? I assume that the zino pro plus right?

[@kmeg7330]

I think this has better photo and video quality than the zino

[@DroneSyndrome]

It uses the exact same sensor and processor as the Zino Pro plus, the only major difference is the camera and overall settings on the Zino Pro+ app is far more sophisticated than the C-Fly app. Also, the Faith2 has newer brushless motors, optical flow and ultrasonic-sensors which the Zino Pro does not have.

[@meepotello626]

They uses the same sony sensor , but zino pro plus has more range and flight time where as the faith 2 have optical and ultrasonic sensor which the zino pro/pro plus lacks and also it shoots 5k photos . But other than that , they're pretty much the same

[@borisvvp85]

Great review. Could you advise if there is any possibility to setup altitude for "return to home" function?

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

At the time of this video my drone was a pre-production and the only settings available were as shown in the video. Today the software has been updated and there are lots more settings and probably return to home height.

[@istanbulstudio4225]

Is it better or the Mavic mini 2 ? Thank you

[@georgeamy8885]

Drone technology is amazing. If you would have told me when I was a kid that In the future you would be able to fly a camera with a phone that fits in your pocket, I would have said you’re crazy. Great job with the reviews, keep up the good work.

[@freeman-1776]

I agree with you. There's a kids movie called Explorers. Some kids get ahold of some alien inspired technology and design a machine that produces a bubble. The bubble could be controlled to go anywhere and even expand to accommodate a homemade ship inside. At the time, this kids movie made me think how awesome is that. Then came drones. Same idea and a dream becomes a reality.

[@renzomendoza8636]

Can u have a review again for this drone captain? To see the update of the app, and if it still worth the bidget to buy. Thanks captain

[@charlmeyer8113]

Never heard of this drone brand but it seems like its a great drone. Really nice and clear video, great flight time good range for line of sight I like it. Thanks for sharing

[@bodeksrc8007]

Eachine sells lots of drones that are made actually by Cfly, but are rebranded. Ex4 pro for example

[@Jayhhardy]

I have the ex4 (first faith) and for the price I love it. It has quirks but not really issues that I'd worry about. And even with the little quirks and what it still lacks compared to better it makes up for with what it can do and how well for the price bracket. When watching many reviews before purchasing, always starting here and over with quadcopter 101, lol, I only saw one which briefly mentioned zoom. Ok it's not great it's only digital zoom but it works and is 50x zoom. Infact at 50x it not that good but at hight you can use the feature fairly well zooming a bit less on a land scape and still seeing something alright from it. It's probably best for lower closer shots and just to use the zoom 2 or 3 times in on something though maybe. It's something I need to try more myself actually but flying isn't easy back in lockdown again now.

[@rayhart7753]

What can I do to help with the lag on pic . Or what will course it ? Got 2-3 seconds on my faith pro 2 . Is it ok to un pair and re pair again. ? Thanks . Great video by the way . 👏👏👏

That is a phone problem.

[@dannythomson5239]

199k subs, well done Steve. omg, no compass calibration and none of the DJI 'you cant fly here because your like 4 miles away from an airport' nonsense..... i want one. aliexpress - one battery £242 A1 smartshop 3 batterys and bag £259 (online shop based in and ships from UK) lots of drones available from here much cheaper than banggood etc. edit:- camera settings in the app are now updated! i seen another reviewer try to use an apple phone with it and it had a lot of trouble connecting the app, android worked great! my minds made up im upgrading to one of these.

does this have obstacle avoidance or sensor?

For the better 4K video quality, which one should we pick? This or SJRC F11s 4K ? And for the built quality also, which one?

[@luizbertini5458]

Thanks for your videos. I would like to know the distance that this drone reaches and the distance of video or FPV transmission.

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

I mentioned the listed range specs in the video

[@patchpaddy]

Great video and thank you, 2 questions though. In the video you show the drone footage but reference the footage as 4k @ 30FPS (16:50). The specs on the drone indicate it is 4k photos but 1080 for the video. does it do 4k video? second question relates to the follow me mode. This is something I am really interested in, it did work, but could you do another review/flight but this time try and dodge the frame, could be fun and would help show how well it really works ;-) thanks

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

The drone in the video shoots 4K at 30 FPS. You may be looking at the FAITH and not the FAITH 2. Follow Me just follows the GPS in your phone and not you.

[@chrisdone687]

I think this for the price is top notch , thanks capt drone this is my next drone over the dji mini which I nearly got yesterday, ordering this beauty today . Thanks ...

[@socalpimp1974]

How is the video transmission quality? DJI seems to be the only one with a really good picture

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

It max out at 720p on your phone for video signal in the app.

[@rickzibr]

Hello Captain, would you pick this one as a budget drone for yourself or what would be the best choice in the same price level ? Is it better than F11 Pro for instance ? thank you !

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

Yes it is better than the F11 Pro but not as good as the DJI MINI 2.

Hi Steve. On the Faith 2, can we set gimbal and drone settings to control pitch and yaw?

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

Not at this time. The app is not yet full featured.

Did you check the UAV Forecast to see if there was a high number of GPS satellites overhead? This may explain why it locked in on GPS fast.

Looks like Hubsan needs to step up. Hopefully it won't suffer from firmware update issues or wild problems in the sky. The video quality looks quite solid.

[@97Linton]

Can't decide between this or the fimi x8 se assuming the app is updated. Any opinions guys?

[@bulldogboy100]

So pricing wise it's up there with the Fimi and the Hubsan drones. I guess it would want to be a good drone to compete with those

[@ERIKJESSEN916]

Any thoughts or comparisons on this vs the zino 2+? Trying to decide. Great video! Thank you!

[@DroneSyndrome]

The Zino 2+ cost way more, has more pro functions in the app, has the proprietary SyncLeas for image transmission only for Zino, and weighs ALOT more that this drone. This one can be compared to a Zino 1 or Pro, minus the app functions which are much advanced on the XHubsan app.

[@meepotello626]

At least the c-fly series don't randomly fall from sky like the zino series does

A realy good drone.If the new apps will have more settings for the camera the video shoul look much better.The range is good.

[@kennyfoss8389]

Steve, you didn't mention obstical avoidance? It most probably doesn't have it. I didn't see it in the description on their website.

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

Obstacle avoidance (the kind that works 100% of the time) is usually only on drones starting in the $800 US range. They are starting to add a type of obstacle avoidance to budget drones, but it is in the early stages and not the same as the real thing.

[@potassiumcyanide3857]

Which one would you recommend for new pilot, cfly faith2 or dji mini se

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

Easy answer... If you believe you will need SUPPORT or REPAIR SERVICE then check both companies out and pick the one that provides such support in your area.

[@technickr]

Looks like a pretty decent drone as a DJI alternative. Dji should be aware of. BUT it is 512g => in european countries you need the "big" drone flying licence above 500g weight

[@technickr]

@Uroboros My information comes from the German implementation of the EU Drone Regulation 2021. There is a transition period for drones from 250g to 500g until 31.12.2022. However, it is important to note that it definitely applies to everyone, not just for commercial purposes!

[@lifestyleunleashed8046]

That is a seriously impressive drone and I'm not put off by the slow charging

[@libordronevideos]

I can only agree with you. I was informed by Tracy from C-Fly about the slow charging "For charging slow, it's not a problem, we designed according to a rule how to protect the battery. If it's very fast, so the battery can't use very long time."

[@miamicyclist01]

Can you check with C Fly if the defective battery issue has been solved? The number 1 complaint of the JJRC X12 and also Eachine EX 4 is battery swelling after just a few flights...which as you know is the same drone...

[@dronehome-world3167]

cfly has changed battery chip source, now it's no proble
