  • Full flight review of the new Holy Stone HS360 Brushless 2-axis gimbal GPS drone with 2.5k (1440p@30fps) camera. This drone is pretty good for only $198! It isn't perfect but the gimbal works better than the few other $200 or less gimbal drones I've flown (very few $200 or less gimbal drones even exist). As mentioned, you can purchase the HS360 from Amazon Prime after clipping the $20 off coupon then applying this 15% off code Z8GDEQHF at checkout.

      Thanks so much Robby! For $198 this one is tough to beat. It is finally cold tonight and oil be in the 20's tomorrow then maybe single digits by the end of the week do that green should quickly be gone lol. It is usually yellow by January but the unusually warm December kept it green and growing. I actually should have moved it again.

      @@RDsRCReviews My second Holy Stone, is the HS360 I just bought from Amazon. My HS700E flies flawlessly. This one is a nightmare. Set it up, calibrated, logged into the app fine. Locked onto 17 GPS satellites. But in an open field on take off, it starts toilet bowling and became progressively unstable. Increased altitude to get it to calm down, then totally lost control. Hit return home, it circles then crashes hard on the street. I recalibrate and send it up twice more. Both times crashed in the field after going berserk. My 5 yr old manually controlled Latrax Alias is far more stable with no GPS guidance.

      @@thelaundryroom7556 that is unfortunate. I don't seem to recall having those issues but you should return it and get the 720G instead.

  • @jamesbarker4752
    @jamesbarker4752 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Watching this just makes me irritated. I bought this drone for myself for Christmas and returned it Monday. Drifted all over the place like yours did initially. Now I’m convinced I must not have done the calibration or set up correctly even though I did the process twice. The video from the drone is excellent and steady. Very stable. I’m looking at the HS720E but now I’m thinking I might give the HS360 another try.
    Nice video.

    • @RDsRCReviews
      @RDsRCReviews  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Thanks! It does tend to drift. It isn't the most stable drone but as you saw I had to do the compass calibration twice. After the first time it was toilet bowling bad. After the second calibration it was fine though it did still tend to drift and it doesn't brake particularly well. The 720e is awful and will fly off on you at times. It stuffers from phantom controls. You can get the HS360 for $198 now if you use my purchase link and then clip the $20 off coupon and then apply the 5% off code at checkout.

    Maybe I'm missing something but I just bought this drone and it is $269 on Amazon in the US. I did get it $249 with a $20 off coupon so still not a bad price. I looked at several websites for this drone and did not see it anywhere for $200.

    • @RDsRCReviews
      @RDsRCReviews  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      That's because Holy Stone is an Amazon seller pretty much exclusively so the other places you are seeing it listed are likely 3rd party sellers reselling it. The coupons I include with my HS videos come directly from HS themselves.

  • @mattalford3932

    The EIS is for the pretemd 3rd axis. So the yaw of the drone.

    • @RDsRCReviews
      @RDsRCReviews  ปีที่แล้ว

      You can't use EIS on the yaw as that is a 3D or Z axis. EIS only works on the X and Y or pitch and roll axises.

      That's odd, it worked for me. Make sure the GPS is enabled on your phone (years ago you could turn off GPS to save battery on your phone but I'm not sure that's possible anymore). Otherwise I'm not sure why it wouldn't work right.
