Bwine F7MINI 4K Video 8K Photo Drones with Camera for Adults, 3-Axis Gimbal EIS, 96Mins, 249g FAA-exempt, Over 6KM Transmission, Al GPS Smart Return, Follow, Waypoint, Orbit Fly, Better for Beginner

Its a professional drone without the professional drone price
​The Bwine F7MINI 4K(RC3) is an incredible value, especially with the Smart Controller. The built-in 5.5-inch HD touchscreen is a total game-changer. You no longer have to worry about draining your phone battery, dealing with annoying notification interruptions, or struggling to see your phone screen in direct sunlight. It makes the setup fast and the flight seamless.I also own the Bwine F7GIM Pro and this is a upgrade for sure!​The drone itself is impressively stable for its weight. Even in a bit of wind, the 3-axis gimbal keeps the footage smooth, and the GPS features (like the precise Return-to-Home) provide a lot of confidence while flying. Since it’s under 249g, it’s super portable and doesn’t require FAA registration for recreational use. A big plus for this drone. And the video quality out of this F7MINI is mind blowing.​Pros:​RC3 Controller: Bright screen, no phone needed.Camera: Beautiful 4k videos and the clearest photos!​Portability: Lightweight and fits anywhere.​Flight Time: Around 30 mins per battery.(It comes with 2!)​Ease of Use: One-button takeoff/landing is perfect for beginners.The drone and the remote both store date so 2 microSD cards are recommend. That feature is also really nice.​If you’re looking for a high-quality drone that’s easy to fly and skip the hassle of using your phone as a screen, this is the one to get! I could go on and on about how I love this drone.I would recommend this drone to anyone looking to get into drones or looking to replace one!

Finally a professional drone that a rookie can operate
Let me start by saying I am just an amateur drone pilot but I really love this drone. It is so easy and fun to control and operate. All thats required to start flying is turn on the drone and controller. No calibration or other steps necessary. It was a very windy day and I was hesitant to try it out, but couldnt wait. It is very light but did unbelievably well in a 10 mile per hour wind as you can see from the leaves blowing. Also the flight time was great. I used it for over 30 minutes and it still had plenty of battery life. It has features that are a must such as low battery auto return, signal loss return with gps. I highly recommend it. Great price for a drone that has a controller with built in screen. I have owned older model bwine drones in the past so I know they have great customer service. I cant wait to try other features but saving that for a less windy day.

Capable and Convenient
As a beginner / intermediate level user, this drone has been a very solid performer For perspective, I’ve owned some cheaper a Holy Stone 249g drone and a larger Bwine drone – as well as handled DJI models owned by friends. The F7MINI 4k is a great competitive option.1. Image/video quality is was surprisingly good. Photo capture outputted in a quality image that doesn’t feel like an upscaled image. All the captures I’ve done have an organic quality. Video quality is nice – the 4k30fps can be pretty smooth if you pan the camera(drone) slowly. Similar to other 30FPS cameras (like in competitor models) – it can feel jittery if you’re use to 60FPS (or higher like most modern phone cameras). However, the video technology is on par for the price range / tier.2. Camera stabilization is pretty impressive in flight and with some moderate winds. Even in some testing while holding the drone in hand, the gimbal performed nicely. It took some sudden movements to get it loose tracking but recovery time is decently fast.3. Wind resistance is also surprisingly good. I flew on a few days where wind was 17 MPH with gusts up to 23 MPH+. I had the drone get carried away from me during heavy gusts, but in the brief slowdowns, I was able to fly against the wind and return to my original takeoff spot. The wind resistance is feels better than advertised and comparable to my bigger 550 gram drone. I would say it’s possible to fly in high winds but temper your expectations, be prepared, and avoid when possible – for a 249g drone.4. Convenience/ease of use is greatly improved with the controller’s built-in screen. Some competitor models and other Bwine models need phone to be paired. The setup time can take a several minutes (and will put your phone out of operation). I noticed I can easily power on the drone and controller and be flying in a minute or two. This is great when I want to grab some quick scenic photos. Carrying case is well made and fits everything needed to fly – controller, drone, spare battery, and spare parts. It includes an internal zipper pouch section to stow charging cables, SD cards, etcetera.5. Good UI and feature set. Drone automatically pairs with the controller (like I mentioned – no need to fumble with connecting your phone/external device). This controller also offers two programmable “hot keys” on the back also enhances ease of use. Controls are intuitive and easy to learn (or adapt to if you handled other drones).Overall – I would recommend this drone. Compact, convenient, and quality. It is a competitive option for a model with built-in screen on the controller.
