I personally don't trust youtubers reviews, they get free drones and money to talk sweet about the product. Recent example is a GEPRC Cinebot30 O3 with all positive reviews from the Kiss A## youtubers, I got one PNP Model a few days ago direct from GEPRC and was the worst build I ever saw, they mounted the DJI Air Unit O3 in certain way that the USB port and SD card port are behind the plastic cover from frame !!! How you supposed to use it? even the bind hole was not accessible, the CLI files must be for another model, the Betaflight programing is all wrong, they never even tested the drone, would be better if they had sent it as a DIY Kit, their customer support took 5 days to reply a ticket and the reply had nothing to do with the problems. I will need disassemble it completely and re-build.
So, hats off for DJI in this aspect, customer support and sold goods that no competitor can match. Mads Tech youtuber at least seems like very technical about what he says.
I agree with the fact that YT reviewers just can't be trusted, as they just churn out vid after vid and say the same stuff. DroneCamps is a prime example. He came onto FB and got called out....He also got exposed for the person he really is. A few of us disagreed with his video and his attitude change immediately. Showed what he was really like and haven't heard from him since. They don't care about the products and test them in the same locations, do the same things and it's the "Best quad ever!!!!!" in almost every review. Can't beat real pilots, in real locations to answer questions. Companies don't see this though and still stick with the same lame people. MT does it in a more technical way and mostly does a deep delve on most of his vids. He's certainly helped a lot of FPV pilots, including myself over the years. |
