  • In this video I take a look at the latest version of the EX4 which is the EX4 PRO. A few refinements with a much longer flight range. The 3 axis camera gimbal seems to work very well. You can find the EX4 on the BANGGOOD website here: Use this code to save 26% off the price: BGRCEX426

    Captain, I liked you videoing the box while pointing to the 4K and your comment made me chuckle. Thank you. lol
    It would be nice if they put a decimal rating on all drones. Wish I would have discovered you video on this drone first.
    I have not had success with buying from the website. In November I actually purchased this drone. It went for in stock, to processed, then 2 days later it changed to processing. After a few days of that I used they chat feature and was told they were in process of getting more from the factory. Will ship shortly. My status stayed as processing. I checked back with them and their reply was back ordered. Needless to say I cancelled the purchase. After watching your video I'm glad the order was cancelled.
    btw - I like your Jeep

    Once again, an excellent review by 'Captain Drone'. Always to the point and no BS at all. You point out all of the things your subject quad can do well, AND ... ALL of the things it does NOT do well. Of particular importance to me on this EX4 was your calibration demo. You really simplified how to do it and I really liked the comment to IGNORE the instructions on the Enjoy-Fly app during calibration. I was only able to calibrate this %&%#$#@ machine one time before, but since I've been using your technique the calibration works almost every time! Thank you just for THAT! My other issue with the EX4 is the gimbal itself. It is completely inconsistent in that it only works well about 1/2 of the time. The rest of the time it will wonder off horizontal (tilt left or right) for no apparent reason or simple shake violently or just make a sudden up or down movements on its own with no input from me. This of course makes it pretty much useless useless as a camera drone. I've tried to get Banggood to take it back and give me a credit for a different quad but after sending all the videos and information that they asked for, they simply ignore me and now do not respond at all. They have lost me as a customer. But, I will always look forward to any and all reviews by you. Keep up the good work. Thanks again.

    Thanks for another no holds barred review Cap, I wish they wouldn’t say they came out with a new drone and it turns out to be identical except a it longer range either that or they fixed the glitches in the previous one. If that’s the case it should just be a downloadable fix for the original. I know that compared to even just a few years ago the amount of options etc that you get is great on these entry drones but only if the actually work. That big 4K sign on the front of the box is almost criminal. They know that 9 out of 10 people will read 4K camera and think it video as well as still. I haven’t checked the price on this yet but its probably in the mavic mini range, if that’s the case I’m voting mavic mini every time! Looks like Ottawa is getting frost already. Brrrrr... I had to wear my shorts again out west.lol

  • @fernandocifuentes6371
    @fernandocifuentes6371 Před 3 lety +4

    Thank you for all your comments and reviewing the EX4. I am an actual user and have had it for a year as of today (6/5/21). Let me start by saying that your review is accurate with some comments. I had great expectations on the EX4 based on the reviews. Those expectations were met at some degree. However, I feel obligated to make the following comments which left me disappointed and with the impression of having a better experience should I have invested not too much more by buying from another brand. I purchased three batteries so I could enjoy longer flying trips.
    1. Gimbal. Yes. It is a 3 way gimbal (tilt, pan, inclination) Tilt and Inclination work fine, as expected. Pan does not however. Panning behavior is very shaky and chunky. Do not tell me that I probably push the direction lever too hard or too fast because I tried doing it different ways. The resulting video was not pleasant. Besides, it takes too long to correct the tilting after a turn.
    2. Video. I do really regret having videos recorded at 24 fps. You know that the minimum to please your retina is 29.5. This results in, again, a chunky video. Besides, although not always, there is a "jelly" effect in those videos.
    3. Orbit. Yes it does work, but the maximum radius is only 5 m. I personally consider that not useful if you want to orbit an object that is bigger than a car. 30 m to 50 m would be more useful. I fact, at times I have had to orbit a house, for instance, and I have had to orbit the drone myself with the subsequently shaky video because of the gimbal behavior I mentioned in numeral 1.
    4. Waypoint. Yes. It does work too as expected. However, sadly I found out that the maximum distance for waypoint 1s only 100 m which does not make any sense to me if I have a drone expected to have a range of 1,200 m. I should be able to program a waypoint around my neighborhood, for instance, not only around my block. This is to give you a practical sense of numbers and real life situations.
    5. Follow me. Again Yes. This feature does work too. And Yes, there is a "however" too. I did it the first time. I had the drone follow me while I rode my bicycle. I follow me and "punched" me. However, the next time I tried to do it, it did follow me too, but this time the camera "punched" a totally random target. I wonder what the point was.
    6. The batteries. After 6 months of relatively happy "Honey moon" with my drone, I started noticing that the batteries ere hard to pull off the drone for the charging cycle. What happened was that the battery slowly exploded inside the plastic battery pack and swollen it until the pack opened. Once, it happened in flight and the drone started to loose altitude at an unexpected rate. It landed almost freely by gravity. Fortunately, I realized what was happening and was able to steer it out of the lake over which it was flying.
    6A. Customer Service. I submitted a complaint before Banggood with unsuccessful results: Warranty expired! I order a new battery for another USD50. That new battery also failed within two months. I submitted a complaint again, but they have not answered yet. All of this means that I ended up with a USD400 paperweight. It can not be flown anymore which would not have happened should I have purchased another brand. USD is what I invested including the extra batteries without accounting for an extra charger (USD35)
    7. The App. C-Fly or Enjoy Fly. Yes It does work, but it is so limited that you have little or no control over your aircraft. The software is poorly designed and you have almost nothing to control. Besides, lets talk about updates. No updates. They are not supported by Playstore (Android). you have to download it from the apk sites with all the risk from the Internet.
    I am 50+ years old engineer who has been around remote controlled flying aircrafts since the 70's. I have built myself many models, trainers, stunt planes, sail planes, you name it. I do know what I am talking about.
    All in all, very disappointed. I have emailed them several times with no response. You get down to your own conclusions
    One more issue: Warranty is one month an batteries failed within 2 - 6 months!!!!!

    I bought the JJRC X12 which seems very similar to the eachine EX4. Same drone I guess... I think I expect much more drone for much less money.
    I'd like to find a three access stabilized gimbal drone with 4K video for under $200 it doesn't fly away and crash like my JJRCX12 did.
    Everything looks good but I can't arm the motors at this point. I won't spend hundreds of dollars for garbage any longer.
    I love your reviews they're always informative, quick, and usually funny in places. Thanks Captain drone for your dedication!

      I fought with this drone for 2 to 3 days determined to find the trick to
      calibrating it and I was ready to give up then I tried this and it
      WORKED for me over and over again so listen up and try this. 1: First
      Press the button on the back of the drone to turn it on. you now have a
      BLUE flashing light on the drone this is telling you it is trying to
      connect to the controller so turn the controller on and when it is
      connected the light on the drone will turn GREEN and it will be flashing
      NOW connect the phone to your controller. now on the phone, it should
      say in preparation, but your NOT ready to do the calibration
      yet, what until the light on the drone goes GREEN and is NOT flashing
      now on your phone, it should say READY-GO BUT It's NOT READY. NOW it's
      ready for the calibration
      because you have enough satellite lights only when the light goes green
      and not flashing. The lights on the controller are ONLY telling you
      what mode you're controller is in and NOT that you are connected to
      anything some people thought that. NOW this is what I MUST DO to get the
      dam thing to calibrate, the horizontal works fine every time BUT I
      could NOT get the vertical to work it would say it was a success but it
      was NOT. the drone was still in calibration mode. On the drone, it has a
      RED/GREEN light flashing which is vertical calibration mode. SO what to
      do? well, this works for me 7 out 10 times instead of never working at
      all. When you do the calibrate first off some apps say calibrating in
      blue on the phone when you see that it ISN'T tap the blue calibrating
      Button again until you see it say TURN THE DRONE the light on the drone
      will start flashing from green to red/blue I have seen some people try
      to calibrate it when it was NOT ready to do so. NOW when it says turn the
      drone horizontally do it about 3 times the light on the drone turn to
      RED/GREEN the horizontal calibration
      is dun and NOW the trick that works about 7 out of 10 times for me WHEN
      it tells you to put the camera up and turn it watch your phone and PUT
      the camera DOWN give it a quick half-turn then do it again if you don't
      see your phone then tell you to turn it again do another half turn but
      if you do see on your phone turn it again flip the Drone camera up
      words and then turn it two or three times. This almost works every time for
      me and it's the ONLY way I can get it to calibrate. And it's junk.

  • @solomon2627
    @solomon2627 Před 3 lety +4

    Thank you for this very informative review. This drone would be a killer if it was on the market last year. It seems this model still has the same 1080p camera which got a poor dynamic range and curved lense. The gimbal also has small but noticeable vibrations. Besides these, it seems the previous EX4/X12/Faith has got bad reputations of QC. Now for the same price, the EIS drones from MJX and Holystone are all capable to film stable 4k videos and have a very solid build. At the higher end, Hubson and Fimi are also having more decent options.

      I asked for a refund due to the nearly impossiblity of getting a calibration, near total lack of telemetry in the app, vibration of the drone that was not dampened by the gimbal (I have video of that) and the app crashed every time I used it. Even with the C-Fly app, I only got it to take off three times out of 15. A true piece of crap. I got Amex to dispute and refund my entire purchase price. STAY AWAY.

    I went back to see your EA 4 Review from Dec. 2019. As you mentioned it has been refined as they didn't spend any time on the exterior design. The camera for 1080P seems decent and stable. For the price, you really can't go wrong with Eachine. They stand behind their product but remain in the "toy drone" market. Good review. Was that ice I saw on the back of your Jeep's cover? It's looking like Winter is knocking on your door there in Canada. Keep it real, I'm off to the beach...

    It was a good review and I did like the way it follows from the side. and please don't take this the wrong way because it's not just you It's a lot of drone guys that do reviews on CZcams. It's tough to get an unbiased review because there's so many DJI fanboys on CZcams. I have two DJI drones and I agree it's a great drone but I don't think we get very views from a lot of reviewers on CZcams because of their bias towards DJI.

      I fought with this drone for 2 to 3 days determined to find the trick to
      calibrating it and I was ready to give up then I tried this and it
      WORKED for me over and over again so listen up and try this. 1: First
      Press the button on the back of the drone to turn it on. you now have a
      BLUE flashing light on the drone this is telling you it is trying to
      connect to the controller so turn the controller on and when it is
      connected the light on the drone will turn GREEN and it will be flashing
      NOW connect the phone to your controller. now on the phone, it should
      say in preparation, but your NOT ready to do the calibration
      yet, what until the light on the drone goes GREEN and is NOT flashing
      now on your phone, it should say READY-GO BUT It's NOT READY. NOW it's
      ready for the calibration
      because you have enough satellite lights only when the light goes green
      and not flashing. The lights on the controller are ONLY telling you
      what mode you're controller is in and NOT that you are connected to
      anything some people thought that. NOW this is what I MUST DO to get the
      dam thing to calibrate, the horizontal works fine every time BUT I
      could NOT get the vertical to work it would say it was a success but it
      was NOT. the drone was still in calibration mode. On the drone, it has a
      RED/GREEN light flashing which is vertical calibration mode. SO what to
      do? well, this works for me 7 out 10 times instead of never working at
      all. When you do the calibrate first off some apps say calibrating in
      blue on the phone when you see that it ISN'T tap the blue calibrating
      Button again until you see it say TURN THE DRONE the light on the drone
      will start flashing from green to red/blue I have seen some people try
      to calibrate it when it was NOT ready to do so. NOW when it says turn the
      drone horizontally do it about 3 times the light on the drone turn to
      RED/GREEN the horizontal calibration
      is dun and NOW the trick that works about 7 out of 10 times for me WHEN
      it tells you to put the camera up and turn it watch your phone and PUT
      the camera DOWN give it a quick half-turn then do it again if you don't
      see your phone then tell you to turn it again do another half turn but
      if you do see on your phone turn it again flip the Drone camera up
      words and then turn it two or three times. This almost works every time for
      me and it's the ONLY way I can get it to calibrate. And it's junk.

    I own this drone and it's pretty good. But I have a small problem: the drone has already crashed several times (no longer reacts to the commands). There was the proximity of houses, could there be wifi waves disturbing the drone?
    Otherwise why the drone crash for no reason (no power lines, wind, distance too far)?
    I'm a little afraid of having it fly in some places suddenly.

  • @jamesaberson8733

    Hi Steve, after watching all of your reviews for 2020 beginner drones I settled on the JJRC X-12. I got it in late July. You're right about calibrating in the app, it is a pain. The only complaint I've had so far (knock on wood) is the gimble. Sometimes it kind of gets stuck in one position. I can usually "jiggle" the drone to free it up. I do get "jello" occasionally too. I'm beginning to confident flying it so I might try to connect to the drone itself and fly with the app. Could you try that in one of your future reviews?

  • @DannyFyffe
    @DannyFyffe Před 3 lety +1

    For $200.99 US with 2 batteries, that is not bad. The lens does have fisheye and the sky colors are wonky, but the ground colors looked good. This would be great for a beginner.

    Hello captain drone excellent videos as always!! The drone it looks nice but they should put at least s 30 frames on the camera even though the image of the video looks nice! Are all these kind of drones the same resolution on the video like the eachine ex4 and the JJRC x12 and the cfly Aurora? They don't have 30 frames per second?

  • @robertheim352
    @robertheim352 Před 3 lety +4

    I've had an EX4 (non pro) for three months, about 15 hours of air time. At 400 meters distance the video latency to my phone display a makes it unusable at that range (LG Stylo 4). I cannot get the app to run on my iPad mini4 so for me this ruins the fun. It has a long flight duration and has reliably returned home on it own but there are idiosyncrasies that are really aggravating. The gimbal will often loose lock, the horizon levelling is poor and fish eye distortion is large. I'm also disappointed in the flight speed. Good for backyard fun but I don't like the video quality enough to use it when touring. Thanks for your videos, I do learn a lot from them.

  • @somestuffithoughtyoumightl6985

    Ever since I started considering the Mavic Mini my feed is full of drone videos and I’m seeing a lot of (lesser known brands) that compare favorably. The catch is that while many are more bang for ur buck, they all seem to be larger/heavier.
    Is there any real competition for the mini within it’s footprint?
    Sorry to ask here, but easier than joining a forum.
    Also, nice vids CD👍🏼

    A long range drone that has obstacle penetration power is akin to a Tesla having passing power:

    So, basically, this is the EX4, but with a 'good' gimbal, the same camera and hopefully fewer issues than the normal EX4. It will be a close race between this and the Zino Pro. Could even toss in Fimi A3 in there
