Best brushless quadcopter bugs3 independent transmitter camera support (tokky) in review

I'm absolutely amazed at what this drone can do. This bird is awesome! it flys like a dream. It was my first 'real' drone purchase - only messing around with toy-grade indoor models prior to this. 18 minute battery life is actually a lowball number. I was flying and videoing for 15 minute before i got a warning the battery was low and i still had time to fly back. This is quality. The stability of flight and responsiveness and easy to fly puts it in a league of its own.

Got my new bugs 3 fpv drone. This drone is the best drone i have purchased and played with! came in a day ahead of the time it was scheduled. Took it out of box charged up the battery, and while it was charging read the manual. Manual written very well and easy to follow along. It is larger in size and has a lot of nice features, brushless motos and flight time. Other then that i've had the unit now for over a couple of days and having a blast flying this unit around. If you're thinking of getting one this is a great unit to have around. I recommend this drone to anyone looking to get a good quality and powerful drone that does well at high heights.

I received the quad in very short time and was really excited to set it up. This thing is beyond awesome. I love it. It's incredibly easy to fly. There's no camera so you have to use you gopro or sport cameras. I use my gopro hero 3 for everything so its good for me. The range seems very good so far. We live in a residential area where one would think there should be lots of interference, but it worked just fine out to 300 feet. Don't waste your time on the cheaper quads, save up your money and get one of these.

This unit is actually called the mjx bugs3. . I have a couple of other "toy" quads. But nothing that compares to this machine. It has great power for the price and is so stable compared to my other $70 toy quad. I actually liked my toys before experiencing the bugs3. (and its cute, it does look like a bug). Not only cute, but it is much sexier like than the pics suggest. Once unboxed, my mouth dropped a bit! . . There are some minor flaws to this quad that keeps this device from being the number 1 quad on the mid-range market, but most of the flaws can be addressed. Any reviewer giving the quad anything but a 4 or 5 star has to be out of their mind unless they got a defective one. . Lets move onto the flaws and all but one can be addressed by minor upgrades. Flaw 1. The battery life is about 12-14 minutes. It only has an 1800 milli amp battery and it is just not enough battery for the power of the motors. Flaw 2. The manufacturer doesn't offer a spare battery and doesn't tell you what battery brand will fit it. Flaw 3 the current charger is only 500 milli amps and it takes 6 hours of charging to get 12 minutes of flight time. Flaw 4 the blades are of the quad are ultra cheap plastic. The ends break so easy. Flaw 5 the manual is well written except it misses one critical part. It doesn't tell you how to get quad to "unlock". Flaw 5 the blade guards are made of fairy flexible plastic. When you make anything but a perfect landing, they flex up and hit the blades. Thus chipping the blades. . Even with all these flaws, i still give it 5 stars. There are simple solutions to the first 5 flaws. Flaw 6 might be hopeless. . Here are the solutions you need to be prepared to give when buying this bad boy! . . Solution 1 &2: buy the battery called zippy compact 2200 mili amp, 2s battery for $12 each. Make sure you pick up a few connectors as the bugs3 has xt30 male connection and the zippy compact has xt60 female. (online store has them for $7 each or half the price at the famous auction site, make sure you get the female xt30 and the male xt60. Also get the one with a small cord that connects them. I got the direct connect and am not happy with it). Solution 3: i now use a 3 amp charger that will charge 2 batteries at one time for $50 from online store. Hexfly hx-403. Works great. Solution 4: buy extra blades. They are 7" blades. Screw on type. Solution 5: to unlock the quad and get the motors spinning, simply hit the red button once. (duh! it took me 10 minutes to figure it out). Solution 6: i'm not sure if there is a solution of the blade protectors. I wish this would be addressed by the manufacturer right away. And yes, my blade protectors are screwed down properly. . If the manufacturer would spend $2-3 dollars more, this would easily be the number one quad south of $500.

As a person who plays alot of joystick games but has never flew a drone, this is extremely complex to use. My first use it flew into a fence and the blades were cut up. The setup was hard to understand, and some parts like the screws were bad quality, one screw had a circle instead of an x so i couldn not screw it out, this made putting the blade guards impossible. The directions were confusing and i wish there was a youtube tutorial, because i had to watch many youtube setup videos by random people until i could figure out how to connect the controller to the drone. Over all, this expensive drone is not for beginners!

T. Fabian, Western Australia says

This is one amazing quadcopter. While flight control is fully manual (no altitude hold, headless mode, gps or rth features, etc. ), the responsiveness is outstanding. It also has an lvc warning alarm in the controller as well as an alarm to warn you if you the quad is getting out of range. The nylon shell build quality also makes this one tough bird. The brushless motors easily deliver enough power to handle flying with a camera either on the included fixed gimbal or with an improvised lightweight motorized gimbal. These features make this flyer extremely versatile. It's easy and tough enough for beginners to fly while using the included prop guards or strip it down to the short landing gear, no prop guards or camera gimbal and set it to high rate and it's fast enough to challenge the best pilots. It can handle 2s-3s batteries but if you're using 3s, there is a nasty shudder. Some flyers have remedied the vibration by using different props but i haven't tried that as the bird is fast enough for me out of the box. Using the stock batter, flight times will vary depending on how you fly. With the included fixed gimbal and a camera, you can expect around 7 minutes of flight time before the built in battery alarm will sound on the controller. Stripped down, you can expect 15-18 minutes of flight. If having the ability to use it as a camera bird or free style flyer isn't enough, the manufacturer has more accessories on tap that will expand its capabilities including the ability to fly fpv. With all of these features and an excellent price, this is easily a five star quad!

Wow! okay, i don't normally post reviews, but this thing lives up to its you tube reputation. So many quads that look great on video are disappointing when you get them home. That's because these tubers are professional fliers who know how to make the product look good on video. The bugs 3 is the real deal folks! talk about fast, talk about precise, talk about stopping on a dime! i'm so excited i can't wait to until the sun comes up! ha! seriously, i love it, the thing is quality, goes together easily and looks really cool. Wish it had altitude hold, my only gripe - but then that might slow it down. It's my fourth quad and far outperforms the cheesy hubsan gps hold 501c i bought recently. That thing is squirrely as hell in the air due to the gps lock. Won't make that mistake again. Thanks for reading!

Product review follows important notice:. You must register with the faa if you plan to use this drone in the usa. Register at the official faa site: * registermyuas. Faa. Gov *. Registration is $5 for 3 years for non-commercial use. Beware of ripoff registration sites which appear official. Some overcharge you or make you register for several years with no discount. (the first-appearing googled ripoff site charges $25 for 5 years. ). . Product review:. Great hardware. Brushless motors are more robust and powerful; they will last longer than standard entry level brush motors. They will also have this drone flying faster and carrying a heavier camera payload. Even after several crashes my propellers are doing fine; i even bent one back into shape and it's perfectly functional. Good battery, 1800 mah, will have you flying longer than the standard entry level drone batteries. But really, mjx, you could have supplied a standard 2200 mah as do other drones of this class, such as the syma x8 series. But they don't have the brushless motors. . The documentation is adequate, but warrants better editing by a writer with english at a "mother-tongue" level. One of the diagrams was incorrectly oriented regarding the directional rotation of installing the propellers. At least it was on my particular drone. So, when screwing on the props, do not force if you're feeling too much resistance. Two props screw on clockwise and the other two screw on counter-clockwise. . Note: this is not the drone to buy if you are a newbie seeking an easy, worry-free piloting experience. The system software functions are minimal. No automatic return home, follow-me, hover control, etc. So, be prepared to learn to fly the drone "old-school, " i. E. , totally manually. If you're a newbie, start slowly and learn skills of stable piloting. Because of the lack of automated flying options it is so easy to over-react and either crash the drone, fly it into a tree, lose it by flying out of rc range, or worse - injure yourself and others. If you are a newbie, do not operate the drone anywhere near a freeway! imagine this drone a 2-pound projectile plummeting onto a car's windshield from ten stories up. . I bought this as a solid trainer as i transition to professional drone piloting. So far, i'm quite satisfied.

The rig overall is quite exceptional, but the props leave something to be desired, either the ones i got were defective in some structural manor or the plastic they use for them is just crap. First test flight to calibrate it, it went upside down into some dandelions and broke three of the four props. (this was with my gopro cam on as well to test weight capacity and so forth) while no other objects were damaged, such as the rig or cam, but 3 out of the 4 props were obliterated. So i give 4 out of 5 stars only due to the fact that i had to replace the props after the first test flight, but i consider this a very good purchase especially if you get the one up battery to get the full power from the motors. Good overall. Cept those damn props

Hello , i'm writing this review on the mjx bugs 3 drone wo/ camera . I was in a hurry to get this thing so i payed a lil extra to get it in two days . Right on time it came ! . Let me tell you i have flone littler drones like the syma x5c but hey that's a 50 dollar deal . The mjx bugs 3 is a awesome entry level race/ camera drone it has plenty of power for what i do it flys stable . Very responsive on controls . I bought the wimius camera 4k hd set up to go with it wow ! the mjx bugs 3 carries the camera really well records nice clean crisp video even while doing 360 flips front an sideways . For 114. 00 dollar with out camera this drone is a big time score . Only down fall is they need to make after market propellers for the mjx bugs 3 like carbon fiber . I'm sure upgrades for it will soon be released

This quad is amazing for the price. It is a basic functions quad, non of the fancy bells and whistles. This quad is not for beginners. It's super powerful fast and agile as well. It also has the ability to support a 3s lipo but it's challenging to keep it tame this way. The lights are bright and visible at long distances and for night flying. The bugs has 2 operation modes beginner and advanced however, even in beginner mode it's very fast. The seller was awsome. Fast shipping, good description, good package etiquette. I recommend this quad if you want a mean bare bones quad that will get your heart racing fast. Beginners be advised. But get it regardless it's a blast.

This is an amazing piece of technology. It was the first real drone i have ever owned and is truly a dream to fly. Everything so far has worked like clockwork. I was a little worried that it would be difficult to fly, and was scared i would crash it on my first flight. Surprisingly, it is very easy to fly, absolutely more fun than you can imagine. I have only flown it around the neighborhood but i have gone up as high as 400 feet with no issues, battery life is amazing compared to cheap drones. Register your drones and fly safe folks its a fun hobby!
