The Best First Drone Gift - Eachine E017 Mini Drone - Review

Can i use it with some google?

Thank you

Thank u I learned the trim while flying control

I got one like that of amazon the only negative is the drone doesn't have a switch to turn it off So u have to un plug fiddly plug So I don't push the plug all the way in so it's easy to unplug it my one is pretty much the same , my batterys last 6 min IV had hours of fun

this toys is no cool! my cool mini drone is coming!

Thanks a lot for this!

This is the cutest thing ever

Nice drone

Since switching from dji gps drones to fpv, I have so much more respect for all things rc especially the hover. The price is right

Can I put a go pro on it? 😂😂😂😂

there is the automatic landing with a button on the controller?

Hey captain ! Does eachine make a lawnmower? A video cutting the the grass would be nice! Ha ha just kidding! You’re the greatest!

Help! I bought one of these little things and I can’t get it to connect. The light on the controller is flashing very fast and the lights on the drone are flashing slow ish. It will not connect tho and I can’t figure it out

can you put a gopro on it

anything better than this for 5 year old nephews nieces?
of course looking at durability and ease to fly.

Cool

Great review. It really is the best first drone for anyone. Only drawback is tiny controller! As you said, Great buy for the money .

Do you still have the drone?
If you are planning to sell it I would love to purchase, because there's no way I can get it in India

I really want to buy this one but there's no way I can buy it from India :(

Perfect starter drone..

I have over 50 E010's used for a school club, many as racing hovercraft. They are still sold, and reliable, but not quite powerful enough for adding a Camera AIO and FPV. The E011 WAS powerful enough, due its larger 7mm motors, but was sadly discontinued. The E016H had weak props, and was with its cage top heavier. This E017 combines decently strong yet light weight, adequate power, and CAN easily go FPV with a cheap camera AIO. Do NOT buy the dearer AIO's with digital display (weight) or with more than 25mW output (battery load). NOTE THOUGH:- the E017 with its inbuilt throttle control is NO GOOD for a hovercraft (Whoover/Tiny Whoov) as is, and that includes other quads with this "auto power to hover" feature. Not yet found if its possible to stop that and get normal throttle.

Hey captain drone, I saw your video on this drone and I decided to get one myself, I got it but sometimes, the drone just starts to lose power and altitude. I try to make it go up with rc but it still doesnt go up, after like 10 seconds, it can fly up and down again. What should I do about this :(

The drone capability are still incomplete why someone ordered???........cheap price???

HI. anyone got this E017 working with a multi protocol module? have tried a load of settings but no bind

So I went to order...My very first order with Chinese Banggood for this drone. The price listed for one battery was $18.99 US. Two batteries, $23.99. I ordered the 2 battery option. When I went to pay they charged me $27.99 plus shipping. Insane

Don't order from Banggood though - I bought/placed an order for this 27th August - They advised late Sept for delivery, on 21st OCTOBER Banggood said it was not to be sent and offered a refund. What a waste of time

wau is great very stable

I bought one £25 inc postage to uk

What binding protocol does Eachine use?

Hello Steve, how often do you need to calibrate the gyro?

Nice little drone for the price! I think it uses three AAA batteries not AA as mentioned.

Mine arrived today and what a great little Drone!

I bought this drone and it came with one battery with a connector that was incompatible with the drone and one that was compatible. Can't recommend. you get what you pay for.

Got 3, prob give one out as a gift, keep two for indoor fun

Stocking stuffers!

Hi can you strap a ARRI Alexa 65 camera on it to to make nice cinematic shots.

The controller is always the drawback with these toy grade drones. Even at 18-25 bucks, there is so much more potential you could get out of them. I'd buy one if we can figure out a protocol that will work on TX16S.

i bought 5 drones entry level only. because i watch your blogs captain😄.

and planning to buy high lv drone nxt buy.😁

Thanks again.

nice lil bugger!
next job is to find out what protocol its on so you can link it to a jumper radio!
then pop on aio and fpv this whoop weee!!

Does this drone have manual mode?

Great for japan rules 100 grams

Captain drone my name is Michael jerrell I used to be a hard working oil field worker and broke my back in 3 places cannot walk Very far now and one of these drones would be a thing for me I was forced to retire and I'm on a fixed income I would love to have 1 of these to do deer scouting for me Do you have any suggestions on what drone I should save my money for please and thank you

Hello. Do you know something about 4DRCs drones (Chinese), do you have any reviews? Thank you. Your videos is amazing :)

Hello, Can someone give me please the dimensions of the lipo battery and its voltage / amperage? Thank you !

It's $24. now and $5. shipping!

Great little drone! I have had a few junk drones, and they weren't really any fun at all. This one looks like it WILL be fun after all. In fact, I ordered two of them, one for me, and one for a child-filled family I know. They ought to have tons of fun with this.

My first drone or quad years ago was the 1rst gen sky viper stunt drone that was sold at wal mart. many years later , i have a spark now and i wish i had a better drone then the old DJI Spark i have now . And scammers sorry im not falling for the you won a drones comment again , after the last one i lost 100 dollars , that i will never see again . So screw you all trying hard to scam other commenters.

I ordered one to get into drones. Is it the same controls mode 2 as dji mini and fpv drones?
