Best transmitter run down I've seen so far. It is really going to help me given the fact there is a 502E sitting under our Christmas tree with my name on it! Can't wait for tomorrow!
5:11 The separate calibration page is not because there is one w/o GPS. Both H502E/S have GPS. 8:53 Actually the instructions say Tx on first, then drone turned on. These have been out for a while, wondering if GB is doing a push on them to clear out. I have the H502S and nice little camera quad, just the motors are short lived unless you have a lot of quads and do one flight occasionally.
Couple of good points, strange that it is on a different sheet, hence I said "I guess". Always was told read what you see not what you think you see, I assumed, again something I do a lot, that it needed quad on first with the weird hold photo button bind thing. Thanks for pointing them both out, appreciate it. Not sure but usually big stock or something new coming is a sign for the sales ;-) Will keep an eye on the motors, I'm usually quite lucky but having said that they are pretty sure to go now LOL Thanks again :-)
It was showing your compass setting at 204 as you had done that calibration. That can be done about anywhere, uses the same tech your cell phone does. But right, no distance or height would be showing since it's not in flight. Number of sats show on the left side of display next to sat symbol. I can pick up 7 to 9 sats inside the house and hover it about. Not an inside flyer though. At least not in my smallish abode. ;-) Good vid!
Thanks for info. Mine never flew with GPS it never worked, hence I never did a flight video :-( Glad you enjoyed the video and that yours performs better than mine did. Cheers for the comment
Hi Tigger! I have 3. It ain't no 501, as they say. I love love love the styling but handling stinks at low altitude, and 3 out of 3 of mine (a pair of h502e and an h502s) stopped flying straight after just one crash. BUT The new H507A has been a champ for me. Just my warning for everyone. Piles of respect from Rochester, NY, USA! Happy landings, Matey!
Nice looking and very cheap quad. Can't wait to see you fly it. BTW you mention that the controller has its own gps. That's not the case with this one. It's the controller for the h502s that has gps for the follow me function.
Hi Tigger.... so it seems the transmitter alternates between displaying altitude, distance out, and heading degrees. Did you find that acceptable during flight? I wonder why they couldn't have simultaneous display of all three. Without FPV, it is critical to know heading and I could imagine it would be annoying when you are trying to turn the craft around to have to wait til it cycles back to heading display to see how far you have turned around.
Hi Gary, Comes on when I connect the quad, battery, and is really annoying, keep thinking something is wrong, but TBH when you are outside you can't really hear it. Glad you enjoyed it TTFN
Hello Tigger. When are you gonna do a flight review of this one. My son is very keen to get one, but I'd like to see and hear your thoughts on the flying and camera.
Hi, mine would not lock on GPS, doesn't bother me as very happy to fly without, where it was for demo they didn't send replacement, hence I never did the video, seems a nice little bird. Not heard of anyone else with this problem and obviously if you had this problem with a bought one they would replace or refund. Have a good Christmas
Hey well spotted you, my mistake, as you so rightly say, I was also reviewing another quad at the same time and just got them messed up, I guess. Now I usually run one right through, then start another ;-) Back to the screws, the black ones are anti-clockwise(CCW) screws, silver are clockwise(standard CW) that should get you sorted, I hope
Glad you enjoyed it, tigger pen, yep one of the kids gave it to me ages ago, apparently you can do something called writing with it! I prefer my crayons ;-) Have another channel for me in my oneie, not getting any views, no idea why LOL
Excellent video,extremely helpful! I just bought and received one.. I set it up following this video. Flying it soon I hope! Thanks again,and I have subscribed! Oh,And I got mine for $59,Amazon Prime..(hope I'm not undercutting your link profit,if any..:-))
Thanks mate yesterday i buy one H502e , and now i,m going to try ;) to fly this little one........... Greatings from the Netherlands......you know wooden shoos and stuf......
great vid, does yours pic up gps satelite but never locks? do you know how to change between mode 1 and mode 2? and lastly the trim buttons are for what?
I received my H502E a week ago from Bangood and it doen't have the "Headless mode". Are they suppose to have that feature. I've seen a few videos on this quad and it has the Headless mode. Does some come without the Headless mode feature?
Hi Carson, great to hear from you, all good here, just winter and hardly goes above zero, nut nice clear skies :-) Happy 50th to everyone in Barbados. Hope all good with you? Take care TTFN
Funny I was having a good look at it and thought, how nice they have covered the bearings with a plastic cover, some hope, will look into it, takes me back to doing it on the Tarantula X6, oh that was awhile back LOL
HELLO. I AM A NEW USER FOR THIS . would you kindly tell me what kind of the app i can download on my iphone or ipad for the FPV ( Pro-camera view) so i can see what shown when it flying ? thx.
Mine never picked up GPS signal hence I gave up with flight review :-( assume it would just keep hunting, you could test it outside first by getting it airborne before it picks up GPS lock. I would keep hold of it to start with, fly-aways can be a very upsetting experience :-( obviously if anyone knows it from experience that would be better. Cheers
Yeah it never happened, mine wouldn't GPS lock, it's still around, in the house, somewhere but I lost interest LOL Think I'm the only one with that problem though, did fly nice when I was playing, thanks for the nudge, cheers
I have liked these since I saw the first reviews, and the ones I have seen flying fly well. Sadly the one I ordered came with a pre-cooked FET and although I got a full refund it sort of put me off. Pity because I've flown/crashed more Hubsans than any other breed
Best transmitter run down I've seen so far. It is really going to help me given the fact there is a 502E sitting under our Christmas tree with my name on it! Can't wait for tomorrow!
Sounds like a great time ahead, hope the weather is good if not the decorations do add a little extra challenge to flying indoors ;-) Have a goodun'
Most detailed and beautiful review of this drone so far. Thumbs up!!!
Appreciate the comment and Thumbs up, thank you

Great video Tiger , just ordered one !
great video!! My 502e will arrive next week!! 👏😁
Thank you, Yeah roll on next week :-)
Tigger's RC Reviews yeah!! by the way you have a new subscriber 😄
Thank you :-) have fun...oh you will ;-)
Aways very thorough & informative videos, I really appreciate what you do, thank you
Nice looking and very cheap quad. Can't wait to see you fly it.
BTW you mention that the controller has its own gps. That's not the case with this one. It's the controller for the h502s that has gps for the follow me function.
It is nice looking, thanks for info on GPS, hadn't got that far into it ;-) more on the way :-)
Have you done the bearing upgrade? Mine... the one prop is not quite as free as the rest and thought the stock nylon uppers were a bit cheap.
Not done it, but didn't have it long either, upgrade is a good move in my opinion ;-)

Great review, as always! FYI, at time stamp 9:11 or so a high pitch sound starts. Maybe camera/TX interference? Thanks again!
It is normal for the H502 models.

When you do video
flight?
Helpful video thanks

Nice one Mr T looking forward to the flight, like the tiger pen not seen that before. i bet you have a tiger onesy lol! :)
Glad you enjoyed it, tigger pen, yep one of the kids gave it to me ages ago, apparently you can do something called writing with it! I prefer my crayons ;-) Have another channel for me in my oneie, not getting any views, no idea why LOL

would you suggest this drone for a brand new user in the drone space?
Thanks mate yesterday i buy one H502e , and now i,m going to try ;) to fly this little one...........
Greatings from the Netherlands......you know wooden shoos and stuf......
Helloooo Netherlands, so you get the clogs, we get the Kilt and Haggis. Enjoy your flying, thanks
great vid, does yours pic up gps satelite but never locks? do you know how to change between mode 1 and mode 2? and lastly the trim buttons are for what?
Thank you, sorry I don't have it anymore, as you say mine would never lock on GPS so I gave up, hope some one else can help you out, cheers
Brother that's a great review! Please review the Hubson h501s Advanced model.
Glad you enjoyed it Tony...eeerrrr hello th-cam.com/video/bHeftcrKUes/w-d-xo.html search H501s on my channel, five videos in total, nice quad, cheers
I received my H502E a week ago from Bangood and it doen't have the "Headless mode". Are they suppose to have that feature. I've seen a few videos on this quad and it has the Headless mode. Does some come without the Headless mode feature?
Really nice & helpfull review!
Thank you, glad it helped :-)
How are you Tigger?
We here in Barbados will be celebrating our 50th year of Independence on 30th Nov. 2016.
Hi Carson, great to hear from you, all good here, just winter and hardly goes above zero, nut nice clear skies :-) Happy 50th to everyone in Barbados. Hope all good with you? Take care TTFN
thanks, as you know it is summer here Jan. to Dec.
I have a question about the display screen , what is the big letter H next to sattalotes and my height
What dose it mean and do ??
How do I do headless mode
That stand for howmannysatellites the remote has ? & the other one is how many satellites the quad has ?
You need to do the traxxis bearing mod now : )
guidelineuk yep I have not even flown mine yet, waiting for the bearings to come this week.
Funny I was having a good look at it and thought, how nice they have covered the bearings with a plastic cover, some hope, will look into it, takes me back to doing it on the Tarantula X6, oh that was awhile back LOL
+Tigger's RC me too I love learning to fly with the x6 it's a bit battered now but still flys well ; )
Please send link or dimensions of the bearings that fit into this quad please & thankyou
Nice and clear review. Thz.
Pleasure, thanks for the comment :-)
HELLO. I AM A NEW USER FOR THIS . would you kindly tell me what kind of the app i can download on my iphone or ipad for the FPV ( Pro-camera view) so i can see what shown when it flying ? thx.
This quad doesn't have FPV ;-)
Hmm..... did this one break or ? Still waiting for the flight :-)
When You will give for this Flight Review
Sorry, never did get round to flight video and no longer have the quad.
It's fine.............
Im just gonna like and subscribe because i had trouble with the props
Thank you, happy flyin'
can't beat the price for gps...
Has anyone found a higher capacity battery that will fit in the quad?
Can you upgrade firmware on H502e if so how
Seem to remember it had a microusb, for upgrades, so should be able too, don't have mine anymore so can't check
Mr. Why with my drone,,,,
Like a lost conect GPS time to flying,,,,
What a problem,,,,
Thank's
nice review sir, i can go for it
Thanks, lots of GPS quads out there now to choose from ;-)
Can this be flown indoors,I no the GPS won't work indoors but the altitude hold should work indoors,or not,anyone
Mine never picked up GPS signal hence I gave up with flight review :-( assume it would just keep hunting, you could test it outside first by getting it airborne before it picks up GPS lock. I would keep hold of it to start with, fly-aways can be a very upsetting experience :-( obviously if anyone knows it from experience that would be better. Cheers
"Link to flight & review summary: Coming soon" hmmmmmm.....lol
Yeah it never happened, mine wouldn't GPS lock, it's still around, in the house, somewhere but I lost interest LOL Think I'm the only one with that problem though, did fly nice when I was playing, thanks for the nudge, cheers
I will buy this drone tomorrow, because is the cheapest drone with GPS
I have liked these since I saw the first reviews, and the ones I have seen flying fly well.
Sadly the one I ordered came with a pre-cooked FET and although I got a full refund it sort of put me off. Pity because I've flown/crashed more Hubsans than any other breed
Shame about that seems a nice little package so far, more on the way, cheers
cheers on cx-20 is 90 dollars
