New GPS drone from MJX. http://www.mjxrc.net/
One of the best RTH GPS quadcopter with smart return to home, Failsafe return to home and the Low voltage return to home all of which were tested in this video and it produced flawless results.
A smooth flyer even in gps mode and has minimal to none “rock and roll” activity and with gps turned off, it is even more smoother of a flyer.
Although it has good quality video recordings, the frame rate did not match the camera used to record the flight tests.
The fpv video was laggy and had break ups and freeze frames at times and was not a reliable fpv feed. Phone used in the test was an iphone 6plus.
It is able to record photos and videos directly to the micro sd card as well as to the phone app and thus camera roll when micro sd card is not used and when the phone app is connected to device.
Although it has powerful brushless motors, I can still recommend this quad to a beginner for the flying characteristics is consumer friendly.
The flying time was satisfactory with about 17 solid minutes of gps test flying.

Right on Pete you got one, I like this new MJX quad.. Pretty cool design on this B5w, only issue I’d have with owning one is that I’d have to buy a new 5g wifi dual band phone for the wifi fpv app.. Great review brother ?thumbs up!
Cool! Please, watch my video shot on MJX Bugs 3+Xiaomi YI action camera
Thx! Great review!
How to download the map…
I really wanted to buy this drone when I first heard about it, but on about 80% of the reviews the WiFi fpv signal is one worst around, and drone half and a quarter of the price have better WiFi fpv signal, for that reason I’m really put of now and think I’ll stick with hubsan for now but I’ll look into the bugs 3 pro.
