Fimi X8 Mini Review

  • This is a video review of the Fimi X8 Mini, a 4K sub 250g drone. My review is kind of in the middle of the fence. It's not a bad little drone, it has many good features and flies well. The video quality does need a little work and hopefully, Fimi will be able to correct some of the issues with a firmware update. This video features footage from my first flight and full 4k video samples.

    Interesting review, Shawn! The 250g weight issue is crazy!

    Great video, Thanks. I'll be taking my Fimi X8 mini out for its first test flight tomorrow, I am also interested with the max transmission range. I'll keep you posted!

    Nice video as always. Not being sub 250 g right out of the gate is an issue! I do like the FPV readout with the grayed out area that makes reading telemetry, battery levels etc. easier to read. Hopefully DJI IS paying attention and will improve their FPV viewing. Thanks Shawn!

    It is going to be really difficult to dethrone DJI, but I am glad they have some competition with the Fimi.

    • @AirPhotography

      Yes if anything it’s gonna push DJI to keep innovating a keep prices down

  • @rpmautoreviews9249
    @rpmautoreviews9249 Před 3 lety

    it does have more features, which adds value, because to get them on the mavic line, you have to spend $1600 cdn..so it looks like a winner, compared to dgi & other $300-$600 options

    Looks like the range sux, only 550m(1800ft) when the signal got crappy and he stopped the flying segment.
    I am getting 9x that with a mini 2. :/

    Where is the zoom option?
    Do the course lock function work in indoor flight?
    Thanks.

    The Fimi X8 Mini has been a troublesome drone for me Shawn. Your X8 Mini seems to work pretty good. Thank you for this test. 👍

    • @AirPhotography
      @AirPhotography  Před 3 lety +1

      Yes I have watched some of your videos, that last one with the gimbal was crazy. Looks like DJI put the last nail in the coffin for this drone with the SE. Hopefully the hubsan mini is a little more refined

    • @IdahoQuadcopter
      @IdahoQuadcopter Před 3 lety

      @@AirPhotography I flew the SE again today. For $299, it's just a stunning piece of technology.

  • @RonaldBrown59
    @RonaldBrown59 Před 3 lety +1

    I’m glad you got a good one, mine was bad from the beginning, and after a few firmware updates it won’t even fly anymore. And Fimi customer support won’t replay to any of my messages. Good first flight and review, I wish continued good luck with it.

    • @AirPhotography
      @AirPhotography  Před 3 lety +1

      Sorry to hear that. So far fingers crossed mine has been performing adequately minus a few small video issues. Fimi needs to get there act together they could really have a good contender. Hopefully the Zini mini doesn’t disappoint when it arrives.

  • @m80116
    @m80116 Před 3 lety

    The Mini 2 is better, but compared to a Mavic Mini this might be a good alternative for the additional flight modes.
    Glad to see some competition to DJI in the

    • @AirPhotography
      @AirPhotography  Před 3 lety +1

      Yes if anything it puts a little pressure on DJI to continue to innovate and bring us better affordable products

      Don't... I would even risk the Zino Mini SE over the X8 Mini.

  • @ardyes

    This can be bought with a pro battery that weighs less than 250g.

  • @eng2625
    @eng2625 Před 3 lety

    Compare this to the mini 2.

  • @SJMDronesMedia
    @SJMDronesMedia Před 3 lety +1

    Whilst I welcome any credible competition to the drone market , Fimi needs to up its game and launch a drone that doesn’t suffer the same issues as all its previous drones.
    I expect the same issues from Hubsan , again if your going to give us something to compete , give us a product that works as it should and at a good price point.
    Sorry Fimi you’ve failed, it doesn’t come close, thanks for the review , regards

  • @alanreid250
    @alanreid250 Před 2 lety

    I think if someone was going to charge you with being over 250g they would need to have a well calibrated set of scales...5% leeway would be in limits...let's get real 8 or 9 gms is not going be much of an issue...

  • @adenewton
    @adenewton Před 3 lety

    Stopped watching as soon as the advertised sub 250g drone weighed more than 250g! WTF!

    2 flights in 30 days?? Its been in Canada since mid April. But I have to say, your spotlighting effect is by far one of the worst I have seen.

    • @AirPhotography
      @AirPhotography  Před 3 lety

      I’ve had it for 30 days but I haven’t gotten around to using it. I have a whole shelf full of stuff vendors have sent me to test and review I get backlogged sometimes
