Drones: The difference between professional and toy flying machines (Open_Tab)

2016-08-22
so Josh thanks for being here sure what are the differences between a large drone like the Phantom and one of these rinky-dink I found this in a cracker jack box drone what is the difference obviously the size that goes without saying covered size already yet but like if I really missing out on something cool by just having this little little guy here um it all depends on what you want to do with your drone so I yeah what do I want to do with my drift flying around your living room hitting your cat in the head that's the one you want right so so pet abuse yes this is mainly used well I mean that in child abuse that goes without saying as well of course just scare all the cat's away with the drone yes um but that one's it was a toy no camera on that one right um and that one in particular is made to roll up walls or also just fly well okay that's cool that's an interesting design yeah like that so you got ones like that that are tiny and don't don't do all that much right um and then you'd move up and you got other ones like I got this one here okay that one there what's this um that is the sky Viper guy Viper snakes can't fly Vee 2400 HD should is it has a HEA you plug it in so I can do anything okay um but what might blink anyway that one's got a camera flies up in the air that's a little bit more outdoorsy okay you fly that around your yard flight around your house too depending on size of your house I guess right so what am I getting with like you know everyone sees these vloggers and everybody they're rocking that phantom right so things a lot of money the fam yeah it's a lot of money because it has a lot more tech in it yeah it's got a much better camera stabilization for indoors okay so that you can fly it you don't need normally you would need GPS signal outdoors in order to keep it hovering in place and not just flying off so that's what you get with like the Phantom's you get better stabilization better features ability to set it up and fly a flight path are they harder to fly uh no actually they tend to be easier to fly bigger than your it is the fun well I mean here this one is big but it's essentially a toy um it doesn't have I don't know if they can see no oh yeah they could see that so that thing look at this you got that it this is essentially a toy it's it's a larger drone it comes with a HD camera on okay um but it doesn't it's not just not gonna fit yeah the stabilization right it's not going to stabilize the cameras fixed so you can't do it you can't like pan and tilt it right is that a GoPro on there and no this is cozy my guess a fake-ass GoPro take over a small no I Ducky's in the toy realm when it's not a full-fledged camera well no I mean it's a full-fledged camera but I mean that is not it's a full pro it's not a great quality I like that it's a faux faux pro there you go pro pro I'm just gonna wear this on my face the rest I like that but again this doesn't have GPS in it although it's the same nearly the same size as a phantom ya have GPS ray doesn't have anything that doesn't have like the fans you know everything so what anything it doesn't really the Phantom 4 is got like collision avoidance it doesn't really yeah how's it do that it's got sensors in front so that does the airbags basically my airbags not yet yet virtual airbags maybe does it have a parachute no it does not there are drones a parachute there are well there are drones that you can attach parachutes to that that will if I have a phantom phantoms are like 1500 bucks right uh not really we that mean that highest-end one okay 13 yeah so 30 I'm putting a parachute on my $1300 drone okay it just like falls out of the sky I'd like it well ideally shouldn't users all out of the sky yeah I guess now so like how does that I do have new drones have like fail-safes that prevent them from falling out of the sky because I feel like what if the battery craps out well I mean yeah the whole idea with the Phantom it's constantly giving you feedback on the on what's going on with its flight okay so if the battery starts to get low it's telling you that your battery is getting low you don't have to worry about that so this is a great episode because I don't I don't know crap about researching for the curse word I was gonna say a different word but then I realize where we were we already have by the way Raj in our chat wondering if any of these chats can be any of these drones can be used for covert operations Wohlford a word he used is first he said stalking then he said area 51 what which is a little ridiculous but all right a joint in general pretty noisy aren't they yeah they're loud I can you can fly one 200 feet up and still hear it really yeah they're not they're not quiet that's why and besides they own either a helicopter well and for the most part they all have really wide angle lenses on them as you know you go up further away with a wide-angle lens the things in the get smaller and smaller it's not like they have all zoom lens sure you can fly up 200 feet and then sure you know zoom in on somebody okay and if you're flying 20 feet above somebody shooting them in their backyard pool you know then they're they're gonna know they're gonna know they're gonna be like Oh someone's creeping out and they're gonna take a broom and knock it down and then probably report maybe with a shotgun like I've read to yeah sure okay so do we have to register like which what kind of drone do I need to register if I live in the US so it's not the drone you're registering you're you're registering yourself as a drone owner a drone a drone er I don't think that's a thing but now it is being coined it here so anything basically any drone over 0.55 pounds so anything over a half a pound you you have to register with the FAA why why is it a weight thing um oh I guess because because if it falls from the sky or flies into somebody I guess right I don't know that's just what they went with this is over this is probably a pound that feels heavy yes so um so yeah you probably in order to fly that you'd have to register yourself with the FAA and throw um you have to throw your you get a little number right a registration number you throw on the drone or oh really okay just something fixed inside the drone you can like put it in the battery cache or whatever Keenan wants us to fly the drone but that would not work out well in this small studio Oh living room no I feel like we could do we could do it do you want to just you go for it yeah okay can this guy know why not that guy because we as one might not cover every tarted-up but you're gonna do some damage with this all right I've seen you fly friend what do I do power on no don't don't do it I'll tow to that wood let's do it tiny tiny ass but tiny one with the cage on it yeah the one with the UH with the so go ahead turn it on okay I'm gonna activate this little there we go put it down floor on the floor yeah put on the floor all right mohabbat is specializing that it's a quadcopter not a drone is there a major difference uh so yeah it's a common thing with um with the people who want to argue such things yeah no technically I guess it's not a drone what you do I hit the bottom way you weren't supposed to hit any buttons it's just what's takeoff and on this week's item tab you have a lot of buzzing oh so how does this work how do I take off um huh how do I don't know now okay what'd you do I hit buttons it's not moving Oh drones up oh okay there it goes what happened oh man you know the having the the ball there is kind of great all right well it was gone now and that's the story of drones basically you fly them until they disappear into a tree right I do so anyway you don't see a live show yeah what you were saying what was the question you had a quadcopter oh right quadcopter drone yes technically it's a quadcopter multi-rotor UAV whatever you want to call it the the basically everybody decided to call it a drone and for marketing purposes drone works really well de yeah you know as opposed to UAV would you have to explain everything that's like more of like a militaristic thing yeah but I mean I don't know I it's they're all they're good drugs so they're all interchangeable terminology yeah and I don't know that oh look some le came back to us he came back and when I got him say get it down okay I put it the Eleanor fly from here oh boy I guess man the bouncing part is kind of great there I'm VIN is commenting he hates a short flight time with these toy drones do you find that with some of them yeah that's all of them oh they're all basic little mosquito it's like a little Riddick he's gonna get well now it's stuck okay well and this is why we don't fly I'll get it or enough that you my producer I haven't no anyway wait no wait before your question sure let's answer the person square short battery life all right short battery life so these are all all the toy ones is it notes it's doing stuff yeah it's upset battery life shut that off okay anyway uh yeah the little ones they all last anywhere from five to eight minutes which is nothing no and a lot of them I mean it all depends on the model this one's got a removable battery some of them don't I for the ones with removable batteries because they tend to be inexpensive sure anyway so maybe canary a couple with you yeah so you get like 20 minutes of flight okay instead of five and that's the that's the main problem with a lot on show so if you want to fly a drone like flying a kite probably gonna have if you have the ability to have multiple batteries oh boy oh yeah sorry Java whoa this thing this is a lot of fun this one's a lot of fun it goes it goes it's crazy yeah can you charge them off a like a battery pack like with Yale phone absolutely um it's totally doable Joe where are you with the kicker oh I'm doing real good with this guy there see so when you lose Michael actually have you all ready to fly Oh oh my god that's awesome who catches their own drone this one's fun man can I have it after after I'm done reviewing it yes well there you go this is like chili ah prepares oh I'm sorry I've rode the drone if somebody wants a toy drone versus professional John what do you think is the the the the customer level who who would want what uh I think in general most people want both mmm um the toy ones are nice because they're cheap yeah it also helps you learn how to fly without blowing 1,000 bucks and crashing it into a tree totally binlong you've you've crashed it bit me maybe maybe wasn't mine Oh somebody else we will not talk about all right well fine um yeah you can get one I think this this one in front of us is like a 100 hundred dollars okay so you get that you fly that around and park for a little bit and you realize okay I'm ready to move up to something more serious and flying this one is a lot more like we said earlier it's a lot more difficult to fly a phantom because those do just about the they're so stable and can fly themselves basically right and they're there you know as far as drones go they're they're really quad copters quad copters they're the right mm-hmm they're easy to set up and start flying right away as long as you said some wood Technic tech-savvy okay fair enough
