Customers love the Typhoon 4K Quadcopter's camera quality and ease of use, frequently praising its excellent image capture and user-friendly design. While some users experienced issues with battery life and stability, many found the drone's flight performance and price to be competitive advantages. Other features, such as the controller and included functionalities, also received positive feedback.
If you're looking for an all in one system to use for photos and videography, the Yuneec Typhoon q500 4k delivers professional quality footage. The included ST10 controller is well built and intuitive. The screen is not especially bright for daytime outdoor use but when used with the included sun shield it is manageable. Overall changing settings and the overall responsiveness of the controller with the drone cannot be beat at this price point. The drone itself is a little on the larger side but I regularly get about 20 min of flight time. Which is still a lot of footage with the high quality CGO3. The punch out in the drone is a little slower that others but for the purpose of videography the speeds this drone goes are just fine. I suspect changing the type of blades used with the typhoon would help improve the overall speed. I am not looking to race with it so for my purposes it works great. The Yuneec has a slew of functions including follow me and some other smart functions like smart orientation. In terms of all it's features it checks all the boxes. I've gotten about 1500ft away with it being controlled just fine. The Yuneec Typhoon 4k is not meant to compete with the range on the DJI Light bridge so don't expect to fly it from miles away. The included 4k camera and 3 axis gyrostabilized gimbal are phenomenal and allow for amazing footage even in windy conditions. I've flown in 16mph winds gusting to 20mph and gotten footage that is extremely still. The last thing I would say is start with a smaller more inexpensive drone before dropping the money on this guy. It will help with your piloting and orientation and if you crash it you're not out $800.00 or more. For everything included with the drone and how it handles I would have no problem buying this again.

This Quadcopter is awesome. Fly's really well even for beginners! 4k Camera takes good shots during the day but lacks quality at night! I would recommend this even for a first!

This is a very good entry level drone for some one who has had some first time drone experience! Camera is very nice and takes great videos the controller is very clear and easy to use it could use some better directions but as a hole great for the price!
