THIS is a DRONE....

2018-03-15
right now I'm in a place that you might not know by name but you've probably seen in some of your favorite movies Kong was filmed here two Rasik Park was filmed here lost was filmed here Jumanji was filmed here so many movies were filmed in this beautiful location called Kualoa Ranch well you might not have noticed is that there's some drones behind me right here that film in 4k and we're gonna be reviewing today so thanks for Kualoa Ranch for having me out here well let's get started so you might be thinking to yourself that this looks more like an egg than a drone it's actually called the power egg and it's made by a company called power vision it's the same company that did the underwater drone that we reviewed in Cancun so they make some pretty sweet stuff this particular drone does have some propellers they pop out of the side like this and today I haven't flown this a whole lot and the winds cooperating with us and we're in one of the most beautiful places on the planet so this should be pretty fun the camera is mounted on the bottom it's a 4k and it can spin in 360 degrees and it should have so Kualoa ranch is situated on the north end of the island and if you remember from World War two when Pearl Harbor was attacked the planes came from the north side of the island so during World War two in order to defend the north side of the island the army kind of commandeered Kualoa ranch for a minute and built some huge guns right here up by this bunker from the martial law ended and the same martial law that built both of the turrets up here on the top of the mountain also commandeered an airstrip on Kualoa ranch where the plans could take off and it was built out of this metal grate wish that allowed the planes to take off over like you know the dirt even if it was muddy and stuff but it was nice because after the war ended and the martial law ended they were able to pull that metal grate up pack up and move out and give the land back to Kualoa so inside the bunker there's a whole lot of rooms and they have kind of the rooms dedicated in different movies so Jumanji was filmed here and I think this guy has pretty good haircut before Kualoa ranch was a place to fill epic blockbuster movies they grew sugarcane here and this was a sugar mill behind me but it turned out not to be as profitable as they wanted so they switched to you know having cattle here and stuff like that but then when movies realized how beautiful Kualoa ranch is that's when they started making the big bucks and when the big-budget films aren't actively shooting there's four will arise there's horse rides there's bus rides and you can see all the different movie sets that are here on Kualoa ranch including the scene from Jurassic world where the indominus rex escape from that enclosure that's here on the island - and it's still here for the people to come visit Kualoa last year dan and I from what's inside came out and filmed a video on his channel inside of that enclosure alright so there's actually a lot of parts of this drone it looks like an egg as it is right now what we're gonna do is we're gonna pop the arms out there's four of them with the four propellers and then this base capsule pops off and that's what protects the gimbal at the bottom of the camera it's got a little piece of foam here keeps the gimbal from shaking around and then if we want the legs to extend first we have to turn the drone on then if you press the power button three times the Leigh eggs should extend all the way down to the bottom now when you're flying the drone the legs will automatically retract up into the drone and tell you're coming down to land and sometimes they pop out automatically so you can land otherwise there's a button on the controller now the controller's a little more complicated than if you were flying with like a DJI or something I feel like it's not as intuitive and the responsiveness of the triggers aren't as responsive as DG eyes controller we have the Wi-Fi adapter right here which I'll turn on and one annoying part is that you need a 3.5 headphone jack in order for this to work that's probably the only time ever gonna say that on this channel it's annoying that it has a headphone jack to connect the Wi-Fi adapter to the controller so there's more of a possibility with all these components that you'll forget something and won't be able to fly when you actually arrive on location it's kind of a problem and then to retract the legs back into the drone I'm gonna press the button three times and it should pull the legs in tight kind of a lot of steps going on but it looks sweet and then to collapse the arms back in there's this little tab right here at the bottom and I'll take the propellers pinch them inside and it keeps the whole thing in a tight compact little compartment and it's an egg again it's kind of you know it's the first of its kind and it's hard to compete with DGI but it's nice that power vision is making something unique and bringing some diversity to the drone marketplace let me just think of the drone footage I had some from the Power egg as well as the Navajo and if you're ever out here on Oahu in Hawaii Kualoa ranch is one of the must-see locations that seriously is one of my favorite places I will link their YouTube channel here as well as their Instagram account in the video description it is worth it's worth going to check out thanks a ton for watching and I will see you around
