Has Fimi produced the Best, Most affordable Sub 250g Video Drone Ever to hit the market?
At less than $200 DJI gets a huge wake up call. Full flight at the end of the video.
4k@30fps, 12MP imagery, 9km? range, 30+ minute flight time, USB-C charging, Waypoints, Quickshots, Smart Track, Panorama, Vertical shooting, 6x zoom, offers h264 & h265 .. plus.. plus...plus...!! 😱👍
I'm going to be keeping a close eye 👀 on this one. Does it melt in the sun or freeze up in the cold?
I keep having to remember it's a sub $200 package. No fancy boxing or extra packaging. Just the essentials.
It grabs satellites fast.. responds well to inputs, features in the App work. You'd never know the difference when lying this drone against any other Fimi offering.
It does have some issues... It is plagued by all the faults of its predecessors. We all hope that is about to change. With this offering, it would seem "Fimi" have shaken up the deck, internally!!
It's a totally different approach to their whole marketing and publishing campaign.
The way the user manual is put together shows a much more refined approach than ever before.
Is this offering, an attempt by Fimi to gain customer appreciation? What will happen next??
Something is going on. We'll gust have to wait and see. 👀

Honestly I've been following the drone market for years now and we've literally reached peak level on drone parts and production which makes right now the best time I'd say in probably out of a good 10 to 15 years of waiting, the age of advanced cheap drones has arrived. The capabilities because of this monumental feat will be completely unheard of and along with AI my guy u will be seeing sum crazy things in this lifetime before u kick the bucket.

Nice video. What's your best guess on how many minutes you can fly at say 12 meters/second? I'm speculating that the SE gets slightly better flight time than the mini three because the third axis of the gimbal is digital which doesn't allocate battery power. As for penetration I've seen someone on KZbin do 10km on the mini 2.. a lot of it has to do with environment. Where I live I rarely get past 7K but occasionally I can get 9k on the 2020... The key for maximum range is having line of sight
@deanburrito6943
@deanburrito6943 Ай бұрын
The key to long range signal is line of sight. If you go out to one of those ponds and take it up to maximum altitude you'll be able to get massive range likely as long as you fly out past the pond to use it as a tree clearance... If there's any hills that give you a visual vantage point that would work as well

At the 27 minute mark You grabbed the drone and it automatically shuts off. You're not hitting any buttons? When I grab the 3SE out of the air it just kicks in to full throttle and tries to pull away from me out of my hand until I eventually let go of it. Am I doing something wrong? Or are you just letting it land in the palm of your hand? Haven't tried that

Many unanswered questions here... but the Neo is a very limited piece of kit. You have to buy a controller to get any useful range or have features available and it is super light and susceptible to the wind in a huge way. Like buying a phone or a car or a video game... there are so many to choose from . Each having what seems so many things the same and only a few changes here and there. For the best experience out of the box and 100% customer service assistance... I would seriously look at the DJI Mini 4k... If you like taking risks and want something that will fly anywhere with tons of features (that you will probably not use much) then the Fimi Mini 3 SE or the Fimi Mini 3 are a good option. The Autel Nano is an excellent drone but the company is no longer supporting much of their products as they are converting over to the industrial, commercial market and leaving the consumer product line to others to develop.

When you think of it... the GoPro & DJI Osmo have no axis?? Maybe they are on to something?? Let's see what DJI does with their Mini 5 !

2 axis is fine for going forward and backwards and up and down. (which is 90% of flying) The third axis is necessary for yawing/turning. EIS can only do so much. So all you need to do is yaw slowly and avoid inputting rolling action (right stick left and right) to get real nice smooth level video. PS. GoPros don't have gimbals because you want that chaotic action video FPV look.

@@GorillamansGarage You won't find anything better for $199.99. In particular since you'll be getting tracking and waypoints and some excellent quick shots. Best feature from Fimi is the manually set circle me.

Hi, I have most of them drones and to be honest there is only one winner from mini drones without geo fencing and rest of them is just waste of time that Dron is Autel Evo Nano Plus !

Yes, you can’t but to be honest with you sometimes it’s better to pay a little bit more and get exactly what you want my story is first one I bought was Potensic Atom lovely drum very nice made it hi quality plastic or composite nice fast charger Really well made it budget Dron but video quality Transferring whenyou’re flying not really nice and reception specially in interference area like my one 150 200 metres start to be problem so decide to buy another one Fimi Mini 3 Drone turn up after so long money in UK, it’s different so not cheap disappointment cloudy one side camera When you looking on the body, they are really poor quality made it you have to squeeze the battery so hard to push in and take off And reception, not even better than Atom but apparently 2.4ghz and 5.8ghz but algorithms so poor and 250 m that’s all I can do it in my area also video transferring not very good at all little bit better than Atom Obviously, I returned it and decide to buy DJI mini 4 pro and guess what? Once the drone turned up. I couldn’t even takeoff from my garden. As there are geo fences no fly zone in my Area (nightmare)

Yes, I’m leaving close to Heathrow Just 500 m from my garden will be okay but in my place there is no flying zones anyway I think you’re doing very good job. It is nice to see all them different dron species but I think one day you should try one of the Autel product Because the penetration of the signal is just amazing I’m doing over kilometre without any losing signal also camera controller and everything is really great completely different quality than others and all them issues I’ve seen it on KZbin has been resolved by the Autel I really recommend to you try one day have a nice day, gorillaman 👍🏻

@@Uncle_Good_Advice : I agree.. Autel was a great upscale alternative. They do have some of the best cameras on the market (and the highest prices). Unfortunately.. Nothing new will be coming from Autel for the consumer market. They have gone the way of Parrot and now maybe even Hubsan and are focusing on commercial/industrial ventures.

When all the Fimi Drones came on the market.. they came in a bare bones box.. No bag nothing. As time goes by, Fimi offers little extras to move stagnant product lines. And as always... after yo buy something, you can always find it cheaper somewhere else. If you want the Fimi Mini 3 and can get a 2 battery pack with bag for $200... that is a very good deal.
