    Parrot was pretty creative with the camera stabilization and "gimbal" design on their drones. It performs better than you'd think being that it's all done in software. It also makes for a lot less things to go wrong or get broken.

    I just bought the Bebop 2 Adventurer Pack (with SkyController 2, FPV headset and backpack). I'm just exploring the features at the moment, but I love it. As I only have a 1080p TV, the lack of a 4k option doesn't bother me that much.

    With my countless hours flying Boeing aircraft from PMDG in Microsoft Flight Sim, I particularly like the ability of this drone to follow flight plans using a simplified analogue of Boeing's LNAV (lateral navigation) and VNAV ( vertical flight profile), that would normally be programmed into the FMS/CDU located in the Boeing flight deck pedestal.
    Sure wish this Parrot Beebop had a greater range though. I am looking at the Fimi X8 as my next drone purchase, because of its flight plan capability, and a range of up to 4 miles.

    Why parrot Didnt upgrade the bebop 2 with a 4k camera and better antennas/range is beyond me. There are things that I like about the bebop that to me are better than that Anafi. Its a sturdier design, very fast, and has equal or better wind resistance imo than the DJI mini, I’ve flown my bebop2 in 35 plus mph winds. An upgrade ( bebop 3?? ) would be a solid winner in my opinion. The real limitation with this drone is the poor range you get in urban areas but aside from that I love it.

  • @larrybuta701
    @larrybuta701 Před 6 lety +1

    I bought one of these from Amazon and I love it. Paid $400 and worth every penny. The app is fantastic and brain dead simple to use. To get videos off the drone simply connect to the BeBop's wifi network and transfer the videos to your device. Videos look very good even tho only 1080 rez. The down side is there is only about 7 gigs of space so you have to be diligent about moving videos off and deleting them from the drone afterwards. This is my first drone so will learn from this and perhaps get a dji down the road. But for right now...this is a blast!

      Full HD is well enough for me, 4K or 8K are maybe better for professional motion pictures but I could not care less... I just put my insta360 ONEX on the bebop2 or the disco, and that’s all.

    I kept trying to see where the ZOHD crashed when you were flying back over the field. Couldn't pick out the spot, since the ZOHD came down so fast and spinning .. no orientation. 1.7 miles isn't bad. The only negative I have on this one is the dynamic range of the camera. Seems you have to point at the ground to be able to pick up any detail. I see your weather, then look out my window at snow and 15 deg. F temps ... not much outdoor flying going on here. Cheers.

    Well when I bought my Bebop 2 I found that not only would the battery in the Sky Controlled 2 not hold a charge, but had an obsolete battery in it which could not be replaced. Parrot told me they would replace the controller with one that had the new style battery. That was over a month ago. Finally they told me to send them my old controller and they would replace it, that was two weeks and two phone calls ago, and I still have heard nothing and I have no controller at all. Might be a good drone as long as you don't trouble with it.

    I really love your videos even if a bit long and this one is one of your shorter ones haha! One thing I like about your videos is the length because you are so thorough.
    I'm glad you were able to get more distance on your rural range test up on the mountain away from congestion. I'm getting about the same distance on the beach in Oregon. It's true that Parrots signal scheme does appear to be less solid than DJI's but I'm fine with the range as it is since I fly mostly in open areas with no congestion and within LOS. To me, the range is amazing! I got 1.8 miles out on the Oregon coast which is about the same as what you got.
    I'd like to know how you got your waypoint feature unless you paid for it. I only got a code for the tracking/Follow Me feature. I have the DISCO as well and I got the waypoint feature with that from the free code they provided but that did not transfer over to the Bebop 2.
    If you do try the Sport setting again, I highly recommend you test out the FPV mode and use Banked Turn ON. I'm not sure why your cable was falling off of your phone. It seemed fine in your DISCO/TRACKIMO/360 video. Anyway, the Sport mode and Banked Turn ON in FPV will give you a radical departure from regular photography drones and give you the feeling of an actual racer. I'd also turn off Stabilized Horizon too for FPV. The Bebop 2 Power excels at so many different flying options for what it is. This is one of the reasons I got the Bebop 2 Power, to get a feel for racing while still having the ability to do some descent videography at far less the cost of others.
    I feel the visual tracking features and the automated "smart" shots are all very similar to DJI's. The Mavic and Mavic Air do have a couple others but for the most part I feel they are all the same, but I feel the "smart" shots and tracking features are less intimidating on the Bebop 2 than DJI. The shear amount of features and menues etc. even the layout of the DJI app just seems less simple to me than the FreeFlight app.
    As for the camera: yes. I am with everyone, the camera is the biggest negative on the Bebop 2. But given a little research and understanding what the Bebop 2 is and what it can be used for and be fun for, I believe it is a better first aerial photography drone for the price. It's small, durable and easy to use. The none mechanical gimbal means there is one less thing to go wrong id you do crash (assuming you don't damage the lens). I don't mind the 1080p video and I feel the stabilization is the best digital stabilization I have seen in ANY camera. That being said, it doesn't match the quality of a mechanical gimbal that's for sure. The one thing I wish Parrot would do is give us a photo editor to easily edit the pictures to get the most extreme distortion I have ever seen in a drone camera. I mean the pictures are rediculous without post production. There is a JPEG SNAP picture mode that takes the distortion out but the quality of the picture is autrocious!
    That being said, the camera is what makes Parrot unique. Although in the case of drones it is a weakness. If Parrot were to go with a better system it would have to be a mechanical gimbal and I think that would be too much like other brands and Parrot would fail even more. I'm not sure if Parrot can squeeze 4K video out of the system without it being unstabilized. There were some people back in the days of the Bebop 1 and maybe the first Bebop 2's that were able to obtain 4K video out of the camera but it wasn't stabilized. The camera does shoot in 4K in terms of resolution (size) and then crops to 1080p for stabilization. For what it is I like the camera system. I just don't like the photos I don't have a program to edit them.
    One thing I love about the Bebop 2 Power is that it has one of the longest batteries in it's class for the money. It seems to be a bit longer than the Mavic Pro Platinum.
    I think for the money the Bebop 2 Power is the best first aerial videography drone available. I feel the features aren't nearly as intimidating compared to the Mavic's. It's less delicate with less moving parts and therefore more durable. The flight time is awesome to help you figure out and practice flying.
    I do highly recommend that you try the FPV mode. The right trigger on the SC2 will switch between your mobile device camera view and FPV mode.
    I love flying this thing in FPV with Banked Turn feature turned on! I think I am getting a lot of practice for racing quads. I do hope you can try the FPV mode out again with success.
    Thanks again!

    I just chose to get the Bebop 2 over the DJI spark for a few reasons:
    - Longer battery life (almost 10 minutes more)
    - Lower price (around $140 less for the Bebop 2 fly more pack includes 3 batteries, controller, and backpack)
    - Flight plan feature missing in DJI drones
    I hope it was a good choice...I just didn't want to spend too much money but wanted good enough video and image quality, range, and features. I guess I'll find out soon once it arrives if I made the right decision or not.

    Heard a lot of negative things about this drone, seems like it works well. Have you had issues with disconnecting? Would you say it's a good value for the price? How do you think it compares to the DJI mavic platinum?

    • @DustinDunnill
      @DustinDunnill  Před 6 lety +1

      Great value for the price. Not as good as a Mavic which is much more expensive.

    Making me want a cheaper aerial, throw in the mix with all my race quads haha. Yo Dustin do a review on the bfight 210, cough cough or just buy it an keep it. Gearbest has frsky for dirt cheap...you'll thank me, great 5" Ditch the 5051 for a 5040-5046 😉

    I lost my bebop 1 last week. I was using just my phone and I was out 456m. The furthest ever with phone. It never came back. Two days later my bebop 2 arrived. I took it up 300ft and then the battery popped out. Drone hit the pavement but had minimal damage. Two broken props and battery cracked. I replaced props and it worked perfectly..until I lost it. I`ve never had problems with my bebop 1 rth until my last flight. I checked bebop 2 rth before I took it out 1257m. My screen went to static and showed cutout alert motor stalled.I still had two signal bars. I was able to find drone from last known position. The only damage was a broken motor. This drone is very sturdy. I believe there is some sort of geofencing/no fly zone where I flew because I took the same path with both drones and lost communication with them. I found drone within 100m from rolls royce jet motor plant. Do the bebops have an issue of getting lost?

    I noticed on my Android app the waypoints are in meters, but not feet like the Apple app. Probably something people need to know, giving the Apple Freeflight pro app doesn't say.

    • @MrJetplanemusic
      @MrJetplanemusic Před 6 lety

      There's a guy on here named mrkentdotcom that does a lot of Bebop videos go to his channel to get his website and on his website, you can download a PDF chart for free. It's a Meters to feet conversion chart. Also has speed conversions.

    • @dejaesharp3807
      @dejaesharp3807 Před 6 lety +1

      Yessir, I know and I'm subscribed to mrkent.com. I was just letting everyone know that to be on the lookout if you switch from iPhone to Android or etc. Android is meter and iPhone is feet. If one was to do a flight plan and get the two confused, it may cause a crash. Appreciate the imput

    Justin, I enjoy all your videos and hope to enjoy many more. Question, can you do a pre flight plan with the mavic pro like you did with the Bebop 2. It seems like the mavic you have to fly the drone to each point then fly the plan.

    • @DustinDunnill
      @DustinDunnill  Před 6 lety

      +Rick Whitham Good question. I think parrot has a better flight plan than DJI but I have not tried DJI waypoint flight in a very long time

  • @BeesBugsJapan
    @BeesBugsJapan Před 6 lety +2

    So Dustin is it worth buying this drone as a first time user drone and then upgrade a year later to a more expensive maybe DJI drone? My friend did this and he said his still loves his bebop 2. Opinion ?

  • @minecarte

  • @KIDTAKO
    @KIDTAKO Před 6 lety +2

    I miss home. Thank you for such awesome footage and great reviews. Also, I have a question. HOW does the Bebop camera gimble work? I always thought it was a FIXED camera. How do you tilt it down? Does the entire craft pitch? There are no videos anywhere explaining this. Mahalo~

    • @DustinDunnill
      @DustinDunnill  Před 6 lety +1

      +KIDTAKO it's electronic image stabilization within a fixed fisheye high definition image. It's recording a 4k fisheye video, crops a section to supply 1080 max res of stabilized video. When you pitch camera it's just moving the cropped and stabilized section within the uge 4K fisheye 👍

    I'm looking to buy a Bebop 1 (new, for about 190 USD in local currency. The Spark is 600 USD here with no controller). There doesn't seem to be much of a difference between the Bebop 1 and the 2, except for batterylife, is that correct?

    Its a very nice drone for the money. I got bebop 2 myself for more than a year, but the biggest downside is the jello-effects on the camera.

    • @OsakaOutlaw
      @OsakaOutlaw Před 6 lety

      How often and bad are the jello effects?

    • @garyolson3315
      @garyolson3315 Před 5 lety +2

      New props can sometimes make a huge difference. The motor shafts may be causing jello as well. I dropped my Bebop 1 at 250 feet to the asphalt, by mistakenly hitting the kill button on Skycontroller 1. It flew but bad jello. I replaced the motor shafts/props and get nice jello free video now.

    HI again, like always, great review. Remember me saying something about bebop height issue after some time of flight in an earlier video of yours??? But now to my point. When your bb2 RTH and come in for landing, see your hight in app(what bb think it is). 7ft, when acually12-15 high?? I have my bebop land hard my times, and not finding its true hight after flight of several minutes.

  • @oneshot7609

  • @dheller777
    @dheller777 Před 6 lety +2

    Thanks for sharing. I don't have the open areas like you do to fly so I am a little Leary of buying a WiFi drone and like my Phantom 3 even though in drone standards it is quite old. How does this one compare to the new Mavic Air for a WiFi drone?

    • @prrcpor
      @prrcpor Před 6 lety

      dheller777 better flight time, maybe the best for a consumer drone that can fly over 30 mph and handle 40+ mph winds, ALWAYS returns home when loss of connection. Parrot just needs to put more effort in the wifi interference issues it has. It needs amplifiers installed stock so u don't loose connection in heavy wifi traffic. It's never looses GPS though.

    • @piercebrindley4840
      @piercebrindley4840 Před 6 lety

      I don’t think this is a WiFi drone

    • @stefant.937
      @stefant.937 Před 6 lety

      My experience: Mavic Air range is better (I have both). Bebop Skycontroller 2 is larger and only supports 2.4Ghz. The Mavic Air controller is much more portable can and switch between 2.4Ghz and 5.8Ghz, the latter can be helpful in urban areas.

  • @ShadrikEaston
    @ShadrikEaston Před 6 lety +2

    heya. Just one question cos Im really sold on this. _ALL_ wifi fpv stuff for me has been very limited in range. Does this plug into the transceiver to increase the range? or is it just for power and it uses magic to increase the range? Loved the video. me and a friend were hypnotised for the first time over a prebuilt quad :)

    • @DustinDunnill
      @DustinDunnill  Před 6 lety

      It's just standard wifi here but parrot does a pretty good job with the antennas in the controller and on the drone for ok wifi range

  • @DustinGabel
    @DustinGabel Před 3 lety

    Ok, 2 questions. Using a cell phone on 3D goggles like that do you need an emulator to split the screen and if so what did you use? 2nd question, when you film everything going on with the phone or tablet screen what are your suggestions for that? The flight footage is fantastic!
