  • A great little quad-copter with a few niggles and one major Achilles Heel!
The media could not be loaded. [The attached video is my first-ever daytime flight and recorded video using the Q500 4K] For the last few weeks I've been agonizing over which FPV "drone" to get. I'm a big fan of going with non-traditional routes and supporting the underdog, so I really wanted a winning alternative to the DJI P3P. I have spent at least a few hours literally every single day watching YouTube videos, reading reviews, comparing specs, talking to owners, visiting forums, etc. I've never owned *any* R/C aircraft, so OOBE and ease-of-use was a big factor. The Phantom 3 Pro seems to be the gold standard in sub-$1,500 R/C FPV drones, or at least the one that is the benchmark that every competitor is measured against. Being aware of DJI's horrendously poor customer service reputation, I really wanted to avoid them if I could get something for a similar price that was at least close to being as good. I'd looked at everything competing with DJI -- Walkera, Yuneec, 3DR, and a bunch of smaller boutique makers. Since I've never piloted ANY drone, I wanted to start on the lower-end ($1,000 - $1,500) with plans to later migrate to some of the higher-end offerings ($5-8k) that will expand range, payload, speed, stability, etc. Aside from the "me too" aspect of buying a DJI Phantom 3 Pro (I hate being an also-ran), and the horrendous support, I find the Phantom 3 hideously U-G-L-Y! It has a weird, organic, bulbous shape that is too mundane and vanilla for my tastes. The matching controller is just as ugly. On the other hand, the "Yuneec" -- perhaps the world's worst name for... anything -- is a sharp-looking unit with some pretty nifty included features, the unique controller being among them (pun intended). The Q500 4K is a sexy-looking package that makes you think "Alien Invasion" and Terminator all-in-one. The included controller has a built-in reactive touchscreen that does a fair job of displaying FPV video and all of the pertinent technical details. The unit comes fully-assembled, meaning the only user-involved assembly is spinning on the included props (a full extra set is included -- bravo Yuneec!) and popping in the battery... oh yeah, and REMOVING the Gimbal/CGO3 shroud before launch! My UPS driver (yes, he’s mine, I own him) arrived late in the afternoon with only an hour or so of daylight remaining, but that didn’t deter me. Obviously, a NIGHT flight was in order (my first-ever R/C flight – how hard could it be?). While inspecting the contents and charging batteries (two are included, kudos again to Yuneec) and the controller, I watched the videos Yuneec includes on a MicroSD card in the packaging. I also watched a few more YT videos as well as I awaited the charger to complete its singular task. To abridge an already verbose review… my maiden night voyage with the Q500 4K was a roaring success. I live in a very rural farming community, one without a single street light or ambient city lighting, and “dark” here is REALLY dark. The camera was pitch-black throughout the flight, but the onboard colored LEDs are *spectacularly* brilliant at night. You could easily see an airborne Q500 for a mile or more, literally, which – sad to say – leads us to the serious “Achilles Heel” mentioned in my review title: RANGE! Video transmission range is, in a word, ABYSMAL! Seriously, we’re talking *maybe* 300 yards even with a perfectly clear line-of-sight! Controls remain connected, but once video goes out for more than a few seconds it does NOT reconnect and begin broadcasting again (sub-10 second losses can sometimes reconnect). You need to bring the Q500 back, physically turn it off, then start all over again. Earlier today, in near-perfect weather with no wind, I pushed it out to *under* 200 yards and went behind a single pine tree where – POOF! – video disappeared yet again, and yet again I had to land and restart the copter manually. After three days of flying in perfect weather I’ve experienced this in three different locales, all with the same results. FPV reception is horrendously poor and, if reports are accurate, the Q500 can’t even muster HALF of the FPV receive distance that the Phantom 3 Pro is capable of. This, at least for me, is a complete deal-breaker. I went by various reviews and forum posts, saying that it was good for 500-600 meters, and that would work for me. I tried three (3) different **fully-charged** Yuneec batteries and likewise **fully charged** the controller, just to be sure it wasn’t wanting for juice. The video out of the Q500 4K is excellent. I don’t have anything capable of viewing 4K native resolution, so I shot in “lowly” 1080/30p with very impressive results. I’ve shot well over an hour of video thusfar and everyone who has seen it had to pick their jaw up off the floor. The stabilized gimbal works incredibly well. According to reviews, the P3P produces still slightly better video, which will essentially go unnoticed and isn’t a deal-maker/breaker for me either way. Other negatives of the Q500 are small quibbles, and were it not for the poor FPV range would not induce me to return it in the least. The Q500 is pretty slow. It takes time to build altitude and get to a distant point, meaning it’ll take more battery time when factoring in round-trips. Even when the controls are set to “Full Rabbit” there is a very slight hesitation between control input and reaction. When landing, the Q500 does a bit of bouncy funky chicken. You can’t just bring it down for a soft, professional-looking landing that will impress onlookers. It does the Kangaroo-boing!-boing! before touchdown. Aside from the dwarfed FPV range, none of these issue bother me. The Q500 made me look like a pro out of the box. Everyone that saw it was mightily impressed, and I stole the show at a weekend gathering at another farm. It looks great – it’s the George Clooney of drones, whereas the Phantom 3 is Clint Howard. The controller is sexy and the integrated reactive touchscreen works reasonably well (lots of glare, so use the included sun-shade). It flies without a hitch right out of the box (after batteries are fully charged), and even a ham-fisted bludgeon like myself was able to control it like a pro on its first flight. The video it records is gorgeous, and you’d never guess it was shot from a small drone – zero vibration, no jerkiness, just nice and smooth HD or better video. With GREAT sadness, for me at least, the FPV range is an insurmountable torpedo in the water that all but negates the many pros of the Q500 4K. If there were a way to double the FPV range, even at a cost, via a FACTORY option that would NOT void the warranty or require physical modification to the controller (like all after-market range extenders require), I’d jump all over it and keep the Q500. As it sits, I am reluctantly forced to put everything back in the beautiful hard-case it came in and return it to Amazon, and buckle under the weight of the Phantom 3 Pro juggernaut. I guess I’m an also-ran after all. ... show more

  • Perfect choice for my needs, amazing package
Like 99% of people reading these reviews you are considering this vs. the Phantom 3 Professional. Honestly ask yourself what are you going to do with this anyway? If you are looking at it as a toy, these are not toys. I read reviews for months, watched about a hundred YouTube videos, and put my money down here. I am a photographer and I will tell you why for me this is the right choice, and maybe not the same choice for you. I am no fanboy- I could have gone with the Phantom 3 just as easy if it met my needs. 1. This is a complete package, and it's put together well as a package. The included case beautiful. Two included batteries, big selling point. Two sets of rotors nice touch. The transmitter which already has the tablet like screen built in, major difference between the Phantom. I have an iPad so I could have easily gone Phantom. The included steady-cam grip, how cool is that! And it all packs up in that case. Sure the interior is styrofoam so what. I must have received the newest model as my styrofoam inner was grey, not white like I have seen previously, and also mine came with two BLACK batteries not white as shown in photos. Very nice package. 2. I could have had this out of the box and charged and been flying in an hour. But I took my time and went through everything before even thinking about it. Again this is no toy. Charged the transmitter and battery, installed battery, and calibrated the gimbal and compass. Installed the SanDisk 64GB Extreme card I purchased to go with it. Checked all the settings- camera was defaulted to record 1080p which is fine- I don't have anything to watch 4K video on anyway. 3. Up and flying literally within 5 minutes of going outside and powering on. Even in a 5mph wind and my first time flying (in the turtle mode), was up in the air. Easy and I mean easy to fly and rock solid stable hover even in wind. Took it up to 300 feet and just flew around shooting video to see how it performs. Landing rock stable very easy to fly. 4. Put the memory card into the Mac, the video is absolutely beautiful and crisp. It's actually stunning how good it looks. Pictures came out equally sharp. So again what will you use this for? For me I will use this at relatively close range to shoot events and couples. For me, the adjustability of the speed is a plus. I want it to move in predictable ways and I'm not looking to run races with it. It is quiet, large, and easy to get the kinds of shots I will take with it. The other features such as look at me and follow me are great, just not what I purchased this for. You shouldn't be flying drones like this out of sight range anyway- so for people that want to bag on the wifi connectivity of the FPV screen for "only" going so many feet, you are likely the people I see in all of these Phantom videos going into the water or running into a tree. I don't need automated way-point flights where I can no longer see the bird in the air. I want to fly this myself and not rely on automation. Not once did my signal drop off or did I lose connectivity, didn't have an app crash, or have to purchase a new phone or iPad to make this work. Dollar for dollar- this package for my needs wins hands down. I have not had to use Yuneec customer service yet so I can't chime in on the Yuneec vs DJI service comparison. I can say I did explore the parts available to repair the Q500 myself something you can't easily do with a Phantom, and replacement parts for the Q500 are very inexpensive and readily available. Very happy with this purchase, and amazing how much fun this was to fly! * 1/13/2016 Update: When putting back in the case after my second flight, noticed a smudge on the camera filter. Took off the filter and tried to clean with a Nikon lens wipe- would not come clean, must be something in the coating of the lens. Emailed Yuneec customer service, got a personal reply back within 24 hours and they UPS me new part on the way. Very satisfied with the service, love the quadcopter. Also purchased this and makes all the difference flying at night in the dark: Safety Bike Light Set by Classic Glow - LED Bicycle Lights - Durable Aluminum LED Lights - Features 2 Front & 2 Rear Ultrabright Lights - Fits Bikes, Bicycle Helmets & Backpacks - Easy Installation LED bike lights that I mounted on the quadcopter legs, with the white lights facing forward and the red rear. This way I can set the front lights to be solid on, and the rear lights to flash so that when I fly at night I know orientation wise what direction the drone is facing when it is up in the air. Works great and looks amazing- like you have searchlights mounted on the front- and with the lights mounted on the legs still fits in the factory case with the lights mounted, very cool. ... show more
