This upgrade to the popular C-Fly Faith 2 now includes On-The-Go (OTG) cable connection. No longer do you need a WiFi connection between your drone and phone. This also eliminates WiFi interference, providing a stronger FPV signal and improved range of the drone. Currently available on AliExpress aliexpress.com/item/1005004246666916.html . If you are interested in wholesale business, please contact Chandler Shaw Email: chandler@cfly-cn.com
Pros
- Folding drone that comes with nice carrying case for portability.
- Now includes OTG cable connection between your phone and the controller signal relay. Does not use WiFi connection, so there's no need to worry about phone WiFi compatability.
- Brushless motors for durability.
- Very accurate GPS/GLONASS with rapid lockon, and great GPS satellite reception. Includes automatic return to home and landing capability on command, lost signal, or low battery.
- Optical flow sensor for automatic hovering when GPS is not available.
- Ultrasonic sensors for improved altitude hold capability.
- Improved range of up to 7 Km.
- 11.4V 3100mah battery with advertised flight time of up to 35 minutes.
- 3 Axis stabilized gimbal.
- True 4K camera with microSD (TF) card recording capability. Can use both FAT32 or exFAT file system cards, up to 128GB capacity.
- 3 Axis stabilized gimbal with remote tilt and zoom capability.
- Controller includes built-in FPV relay for improved FPV range.
- C-Fly 2 app provides FPV capability, video resolution selection (4K 30fps, 2.7K 30fps, or 1080p 60fps), and camera settings including exposure, white balance, ISO, FOV, scene modes, and special effects. "C-Fly2" app is available on Google Play here bit.ly/CFly2App or on the Apple App Store here apple.co/3y6EotG
Cons
- Weighs 539 grams with battery. This drone will require registration in most countries.
- The ultrasonic altitude hold sensors did not seem to provide steady altitude when flying over grass.
- Flight time is significantly less than the advertised 35 minutes. I got approximately 23 minutes. This is about 1 minute shorter than my original C-Fly 2 drone's average flight time. This might be attributed to the added power requirements of the cooling fan upgrade.
- Waypoint mode wouldn't load map data in the app. Additionally, the app would not center on the drone or on my position when the location center buttons were pressed. As such, I was not able to demonstrate the waypoints feature of this drone.
- Visual Follow and Panorama modes have not yet been incorporated into the app.
