    READ THIS BEFORE YOU WATCH THE VIDEO AND POST A SILLY COMMENT. If you want to know the PRICE of each drone or the SPECS of each drone, you have to watch the DETAILED REVIEW of the drone which can be found in the Links below this video.

    Must be one of the best drone review video in Youtube. Fast forward, no bs and straight to the point - in this case to 10 points. Well done.
  • @GR8SCOTT
    I'd have to say the best beginner is Eachine E014 Windmill. Perfect for indoors, to learn and have something on those rainy days. Light, protected props, good FPV camera(720P), optical flow, and tons of app abilities. It's fast and stable. Light, so only outside on calm days. You might have to wait for a sale($20 shipped) but even at $35 it's well worth it. I've put it through quite a few tumbles and it still works great. 300mah built in battery charges in half an hour and runs for 5+ minutes with the optical flow turned off and recording to phone.

    Captain sir, just watched your year old video. Thank you, did some research on myself and ordered a H.S. 700 recently. Your video backed up my selection...

    I still like where I started at about $30 with a Syma drone. Very manual. Made me appreciate GPS drones. Yes, I had to endure a few head bowed moments as it ended on a roof, not even mine. But that is a toy. Next I started with a Bugs 5W. 1st GPS drone for me and I fell in love. Then DJI got all my money. Your videos are the best!!!
  • @waynemetzger653
    Perfect! I can’t help thinking that I must have been one of those emailers soliciting your advise, and you were very kind to have responded. Many thanks for this great video!
  • @hakemz.
    Funny thing is 200$ actually my very maximum budget on buying a drone, cheap for me is like 50$ and below. 😂
  • @pbf1940
    Hey Captain! I looked at your video and a couple others but went with your recommendation and bought the sjrc z5 as my first drone. I crashed it 3 times in my backyard two days ago but took to the park today to hone my drone skills. Wow this is the best thing ever. I will upgrade some day once I get the hang but for now I'm just saying thanks for your awesome recommendation. Wish I had this when i visited Lake Louise last November.
  • @covertops.
    Yes, please do regular recommendations like this once every six months or so. Thanks a lot!
  • @DiniRostiwa19
    This is top video for me who just started the new hobby . . . And this video is your favorite in your channel capt
  • For any Newbees, Listen and Learn from Capt. and Advice. You will be ahead and glad you did.. I didn't and now regret, I should have followed the info facts and experience Capt Drone has shared. He's spot on.. The say you learn by your mistakes.. Remember when someone gave you good advice but you didn't follow it.. Afterwards, wish you had.. Thanks Capt Drone. Great Job
  • @TheGreatest1974
    I’m a beginner and I can tell you EXACTLY what a person is looking for. Simply an easy to fly drone with a dedicated FPV headset that doesn’t need your phone, and it gives good video and can fly 2 or three miles and last out to get back. Simple as that.
  • @mumbich
    I have a X5 EPIK and bought it on GearBest based on your YT review. Its great drone for the money spent. :) Now my neighbor wants to buy a similar one and this is a great video. Thanks for your great work!
  • @w13rdguy
    This was the first or second drone channel I came to, and, after viewing many others, I have discovered...this guy IS the captain!
  • @tomdaoust
    Great review. Good format: discuss each one, briefly highlight the good and the bad, mention the approximate price range. I’ll need one more video to explain the basic features to look for, which ones are essential for certain kinds of drone work, and which ones are “nice to haves, and very cool, but rarely needed or used.” Very good. Thanks for sharing.
  • @juanveloz5501
    I love how he explains each drone I just recently received my z5 drone and before I purchase it I made sure it got a good review from the captain sjrc z5..
  • @GM-san
    Thanks for publishing this video! Was really looking for recommended cheap drones as I am looking to get one.
  • Great! Nothing like a best of vid. Will be saving this post for future consumption. Good to get your recommendations. Thank you sir.
