![HolyStone HS720 - [Under $300] - 2K Camera - 26min - Brushless - Foldable - FPV - GPS](/img/n.gif)
Hi there, online it shows the 720e is a worse video is that wring or just lies on there?
Worse than the 720? Not in my experience. I found the 720e to be better. It’s not in the league with the more expensive Mavic drones, but in this price range I think it’s very good.
@@OurThrivingLife yeah i looked up the 720e v 720 and the camera looks better in 720 than the 720e but the 720e was assisted and not moving as it looked, so just thought id check with you as had both, im not interested in the mavic stuff to expensive for 15 min, id rather spend that kind of cash for next misses dildo it would keep her happier than mavic will lol
@@googlelimp9834 bro😭
@@deelan5726 glad some people dont take it to seriously some start crying they own a Mavic and use it as a dildi so end up crying like little girls see lol i mean its a fucking drone, not a nuclear weapon LOL
@@googlelimp9834 glad some people don't take emojis too seriously...
seeing the propeller blades is a feature lol
Without actually flying the drone this is one of the best reviews I’ve seen on the 720/720E. Very informative
I enjoyed your review. I learned a couple of things I hadn’t heard in a couple other reviews I’ve watched. Will now go with the 720E based on your comparison. Thank you.
Thanks, very valuable info
Thank you. I have been debating for a week with myself on whether I should get the HS720 or HS720E. Thanks you for explaining the significant difference between the two drones that I was unaware of until seeing your video. My decision is HS720E.
Thanks for the review, I'm buying a drone for my dad and was going to get the HS720. I appreicate this video pointing me to the HS720E
Thank you Sir.. honest face with honest review.. subscribed
Great info! Using the link to purchase now!
Awesome! Thank you!
Hey, thanks so much!!! Happy flying!!✈️🚁
Well I’m sold. Thanks for the review!
Thank you for your time and the review you did. Very helpful.. I just received my hs720 yesterday and while I was waiting for the battery to charge saw your video. Somehow the 720e escaped me in my searches, and after your video and watching a few more it is a no brainer that if you want good video then you need the image stabilization. However I did get my 720 on sale for $180 so the 720e is going to hurt a little at $280 but still I believe worth it. Thanks again.
Same thing happened to me. I quickly did a return on Amazon and got the HS720E.
If you don't mind, let me add that the 720E also has tripod mode, headless mode and you have the option to read in feet instead of meters.
Yes. Good points. Thanks for pointing these features out.
We all got to stick together and I'm glad you took it in a positive way. Keep doing your thing bro.
My 720 can also be set to read in 'feet'. Has anyone else noticed a new improved Ophelia Go app? My app changed automatically to a newer style.
@@festusbob6824 Interesting. I haven't seen anything change on my app, but I've only had it for a couple of months. Mine does read in feet or meters.
What's tripod mode?
Wow I just bought the 720 after watching many reviews. Accidently saw yours, immediately canceled my order and purchased the 720e.
I was asking me if the video quality is really that bad in other reviews. That helped a lot! Also made a good deal in Germany on Amazon :)
Awesome. Glad it helped.
good job Mark
Great video, you really help me to decide. Thank you
Great video, I did the same thing by accident, gonna order the E after seeing this and just keep the 720 for the kids and extra parts if needed
I think you'll be happy with the E. I'm really enjoying mine.
@@OurThrivingLife I'm totally new to this, I'm registered and live in a restricted fly zone so I do ask for clearance from the FAA to go up, but I am two blocks away from friends that are not in the restricted zone so I'm guessing being registered as a recreational pilot and staying below 400 feet I will be within the laws?
Great video, very helpful - thanks.
Now that I see you recorded this CZcams video 3 years ago, you were probably right when saying that the HS720 did not record video in 4k UHD, but the HS720 does record both photos and video in 4k UHD with the current models when a micro SD card is utilized, and also has image stabilization that works well. Thus, the HS720 appears to have undergone an upgrade at some point.
Thanks for the update.
Good Content Jeff.
appreciate the effort you've put behind this.
I got a HS 720E.
Would like it if you explained in detail about the review/free battery part.
TIA
Great video....thanks so much for the valuable info! 👍😃
Good video man!
I am also just like you - just a noob. Thanks for the excellent comparison.
the hs720 has 26 min flight time the hs720e has 46 min flight time + image stabilization . I highly recommend the 720E over the 720 but if you're looking for as cheap as possible the 720 is still a great purchase
Great info. Thanks!
Really useful video. That's made my decision much easier. Thanks. :)
Well done and very informative. One minor point. Some people believe everything that they hear. At 3;00 you say the 720 has a 26 HOUR flight time. Obviously you misspoke. You did print a correction in post production. That's good. I'm glad I switched my order to the 720E. Your video confirms I made the right decision.
I have also seen reviews stating props are visible on 720, not on 720e. I believe it, but the 720 is 110 degrees field of view with 130 on the 720e. The 720e must crop and widen the ratio height x width I guess. Amazon pricing right now puts them $40 apart (with adding 2nd battery to 720) so not as easy of a call as you had.
720E records in 4k about 47 minutes of flight time, your phone has to support 5ghz WiFi.
Made the same mistake, ordered the 720 as it said with image stabilisation...not realising it only came with one battery and the In uk costs £70.00, saved 30.00 by buying the 720e after cancelling 720 purchase 10 minutes after ordering. And comes with extra image stabilisation and other features.
My 720 flew away and crashed last week. Looking at Autel evo nano plus ➕️ now
720 e is nice with electronic image stabilazition but the 720-g has a second roll axis gimbal at amazon today for 209.99
I got a HS720 and it record on a 120GB SDcard.
got my 720 for 120 just need to buy a few batteries 🔋
btw 720-g extra battery runs 79.99 and drone comes with only 1 but i now own 3 720-gs at 222after taxes i couldn't pass
Awesome Video Jeff. Please go over how to get the extra battery again. Who do I send the review to? Is it a review of the software or the drone itself? Thanks in advance.
For me, there was a pop-up when I first downloaded and opened the phone app. I clicked "Yes" and then they emailed me with instructions. I just had to do a review of the drone on Amazon and screenshot it and email it to them. They also required proof of purchase. If you didn't get the pop-up on the app, I would email their customer service. Good luck.
Thanks for the clarification Jeff and the advice. Looking forward to seeing some of your flights. Your video helped me decide to get the hs720e over the f11 pro gim.
I did the same , I got the 720 then figured out the E model was better so I returned the regular.
The biggest issue I find is all the ritualistic things you have to do to get airborne. I will have to write them down on the back of my hand so as not to forget one of the steps. Maybe that is typical of drones with all the capabilities it has.
Thanks Jeff. You answered a lot of questions that no one else is addressing. It appears this drone is getting close to the standard established with DJI several years ago for a substantial amount of savings. Personally, I use drones for mapping and creating digital elevation modeling, so I am interested in the Sony sensor and if it geotags the photos on the HS720E. The way to tell is by looking at the properties (metadata) of the still photos in Windows or iOS and seeing if there is an X and Y coordinate and elevation (in meters usually). Do you know if that is the case?
I checked and there is no geotag data. Sorry.
@@OurThrivingLife Thanks. Getting one anyway. A great drone for footage.
Hi, Nice video. but you didn't talk about very important issue, I`m taking about on the 720 after every flight you land and you turn the drone off, The next time you want to fly again you have to go thru alllllll process of set up spinning 3 to the right and up and down Ect... That annoying, is the 720E the same? or ONE time setting and that it, Thank,
What about the hs700e vs the 720e?
My 720e arrived today. I almost ordered the 720 before stumbling on a video about 720. But I paid $330 on Amazon. I guess it was cheaper last year?
Have fun with it!
@@OurThrivingLife , quick question: since 5g is required to fly, does it eat up a lot of cellular minutes when you’re flying?
@@MacAutomationTips I have not noticed that it uses much data.
Thanks for the video, Trying to decide between the Mavic mini 2 or the HS720e
Mavic mini 2 for sure, no question about it
Mini 2 quite a bit more money but yeah, of course it’s better - you get what you pay for like everything else. 720e great value for the money no doubt.
DJI spark !
No brainer ,get a dji mini 2
I would hope it’s a lot better for $140 more than the Hs720
The colours on the 720E look washed out , the 720 has better colour but no EIS
$140? Do the math.
Why does my transmitter keep showing GPS satellites with the switch in the off mode
but i feel you can't go wrong with either one
if possible iwould opt fpr the 720g or 360 with roll axis gimbal
How do they compare with the 720G?
The camera isn't the only difference between the two drones. Look underneath on the 720e and you'll see a little short piece of wire sticking out, presumably to help receive a better signal from the remote control.
Both of mine have the wire sticking out.
@@OurThrivingLife I only had the wire sticking out of the hs720e. I've still got this drone but also upgraded to the mavic air 2
I have two 720 and they both have the antenna wire sticking out.
My drone hs700 fly itself into the water, and I was 10 meters away from it when it suddenly lost connection to the remote. I own another drones including 2 fpv ones and never happened something like this to me. Can't recommend it
Sorry to hear this. I’d recommend contacting Holy Stone customer service. I’ve heard of them replacing drones when the crash is due to malfunction.
how far does it go?
The problem I have had with this drone and the HS720E is that both my original did a fly away, now having flown drones since 2018 I think I may have got the hang of it by now, each fly away did the same, after setting things up and then starting within minutes the drone decided to fly to its left so on pressing RH nothing happens, I then try to control the drone myself again nothing so in total I have lost the following 1xHS720E & HS720G being fair to Holy Stone they have replaced all the fly aways I've had, so far play to then. ~In my opinion there is something not quite right withe the drone / controller or both which needs sorting, I'm sure that Holy Stone can't keep replacing these fly aways. All that said I'm still of the option that these drones perform and look good despite the obvious. So for now I'll keep my fait hin Holy Stone.
Any specs on the camara?!
Don't have specifics. Just know it is 4K with Sony sensor.
Hi Lisa & Jeff. Are Holy Stone drones made in China (main land) or Taiwan? Thank you.
I believe they are made in China.
Could I use this to inspect my roof? Will the camera give detail if I hover 12 inches above the surface?
I think that would work if you’re confident in operating it that close to the roof.
Can you manually set the shutter speed, apeture and ISO on the phone app? Also, is it capable of spinning in one place? Was looking to see if you can use this drone to take some photos and stitch them together manually to produce some panorama shots. Also some HDR shots.
Thanks.
You can set ISO, adjust brightness, saturation, white balance, but you cannot adjust shutter speed or aperture. It hovers in place very well. I have tested in a 10mph wind at ground level and it held position great. There is also an orbit setting. It will circle a point. You can adjust the orbit from 16 to 164 feet.
@our thriving life - how do you adjust those settings like iso, saturation and white balance?
@@xjasso00 On the phone app. You go into settings.
@@OurThrivingLife Thank you! I must have overlooked the setting in my test flight.
Also, how long did you have to wait to receive your promotional battery? I completed the process and they advised the order was placed but just wondering how long i should expect. So excited for some additional air time!
@@xjasso00 It only took about a week for me to get the battery.
Thanks for the info great video just one question though, does this drone have to be registered for use in Canada ?
Sorry. I don’t know about Canada. You do have to register drones in the US.
Yes, it's over 250 grams.
@@OurThrivingLife I just cancelled my order 720 and ordered a 720e after I watch it video but I don’t know where do we have to register will you please explain thanks In advance
E is better, don't waste your money on the cheaper one.
I dont think you should say dont buy the 720! i have one its great. yes the more you spend the more you get. but that doesnt mean the 720 is bad just less money. the 720 is a great drone dont listen to this guy. i have one its great for the kids they fly it. its top notch easy to fly.
