Yuneec Drones Get Big Price Drops

January 21, 2016 By Eric Reagan

Yuneec Typhoon Q500 4K

It looks like Yuneec’s quadcopters have taken a significant price drop in addition to the recent drops we saw on DJI Phantom 3 drone prices.

The Yuneec Q500 4K Typhoon is now $999.99 (was $1299.99) and comes complete with the SteadyGrip handheld gimbal and aluminum carry case.

The Yuneec Q500+ Typhoon 1080/60p model is now $699.99 (was $1099.99). It also ships with the SteadyGrip handheld gimbal and aluminum case.

The Yuneec Typhoon G with the GoPro Gimbal is down to $499.99 (was $899.99).

I’m not sure if these are permanent or will expire soon. I’m a big fan of the Yuneec drones because of the added value you get with the full kit over what DJI offers. I’ve had a Q500 4K on deck for review for a while now and really have nothing but praise for it. I’ll get around to that review soon hopefully, but in the mean time, these are some solid deals on great drones.

Yuneec Unveils Typhoon H Drone with 6 Rotors

January 18, 2016 By Eric Reagan

Yuneec Typhoon H

Yuneec remains below the radar for many; however, the company continues to be on the forefront of many tech advances in the drone industry. The new Yuneec Typhoon H steps up from the quadcopter form we’ve seen from other drones in its size and price range and provides a hexacopter design (i.e., six rotors) with some rather high-end features.

DJI Phantom 3 Drones Get Price Drops

January 7, 2016 By Eric Reagan

DJI Phantom 3 4K

B&H has just dropped prices on the DJI Phantom 3.

The Phantom 3 Advanced dropped from $999 to $799.

The Phantom 3 Standard dropped from $699 to $499. That’s really some impressive pricing on such a well-equipped drone – even if it is “only” 1080p.

The Phantom 3 4K is now $799. This may be more of a price correction since it was introduced as a $999 drone. But at $799, that’s a solid deal on a drone with a built-in 4K camera and gimbal.

DJI Unveils Phantom 3 4K for $799 [Updated]

January 4, 2016 By Eric Reagan

DJI Phantom 3 4K

Last year, we saw DJI introduce a trio of Phantom 3 models that spanned from the entry-level Phantom 3 Standard to the mid-range Phantom 3 Advanced and the top-end Phantom 3 Professional, which was the only drone to feature a 4K camera.

At CES 2016, DJI has introduced the new Phantom 3 4K, which matches the resolution of the Professional model at a lower price point. [Read more…]

Drone Blender is the Perfect Precursor to CES 2016

January 4, 2016 By Eric Reagan

[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B_Kym0e5J7M&w=700]

Mitch over at Planet 5D sent me this video of a drone turned blender and shot in super slow motion at 1500fps on the Phantom Miro camera. With CES 2016 kicking off this week, it is the perfect intro to the onslaught of drone tech we are going to see the rest of the week.

Aside of the humor and wonder of watching the DJI Phantom chop up fruits and veggies in slow motion, it is striking to me just how powerful those little plastic blades are when moving at high RPMs.

If you’re worried about the demise of the drone, it was already on its last legs and was used in this video for a last hoorah as it was put out of its misery.

This crazy video from the World Cup in Italy shows a rather large drone crashing just behind a skier as he raced down the course. The drone is said to have been shooting video for the TV program and lost connection with the operator.

What an incredible close miss on this crash!
