Pros
– D1806 2300KV brushless motors quadcopter with GPS.
– GPS position hold, altitude hold, automatic takeoff, landing, headless mode.
– 1080p HD camera records to microSD card on camera, and on your phone via 5G WiFi.
– 1080p digital FPV video viewed and recorded to you phone via its camera and monitor.
– Flight parameters (altitude, distance, battery power, satellite reception) telemetry are all displayed on the LCD of the controller.
– Includes an automatic geofence setting for newer fliers of 300 meters range and 100 meters height restriction. Quadcopter will automatically return to home if these paramaters are exceeded in flight. Geofence can be easily turned off if not desired.
– Returns to home when selected, when exceeding the geofence, and automatically when flown out of range, or on low battery.
– 7.4V 2000mah battery gives over 12 minutes flight time. Battery is charged via micro USB charging cable (no special charger required).
Cons
– Requires 802.11ac 5G WiFi to use app. Not everyone has a phone with this capability. Verify first that your phone is 802.11ac WiFi capable before purchasing.
– As of 12/15/2017, the Google Play version of the JJRC app has not yet been updated for this drone. Instead download the updated Android version of this app from its secondary China app site here http://www.pgyer.com/eWhl. The app is based on the JJRC toy WiFi FPV app, and only presents FPV video and recording status (no telemetry info is dispolayed via the app).
– The GPS can take minutes to lock on. The GPS position hold can wander greatly.
– Toilet bowl effect (TBE) wobble increased as the flight progresses. Compass calibration’s to correct can also take a long time to complete.
– Could not switch it back to GPS mode in flight after flying in altitude hold mode. Could be disastrous for beginner pilots.

hiiii, wifi connection is 2.4 or 5.8 ghz? Tank you very much
wow man very good !!!
Dual GPS means that the drone and the controller have GPS units in them. THis allows “follow me” functionality and other related control abilities like the geo – fence mode. Hubsan 502S has similar set up and abilities.
I saw a video from a Malaysian user and I believe he said it was from Xiaomi but, pronounced “Show Me”. As for the 5G issue, I believe it is in regards to the Wifi channels 802.11 A/B/G and N. Even industry standards have some confusion about this subject with 802.1/N, being backwards compatible to the earlier 802.11A standard. If I’m not mistaken, 802.11 B/G and N, are in the 5.8 gigahertz range. And, there is the confusion with the 5G or 5th Generation LTE networks, which will take at least til 2025 to fully implement. With all the talk and excitement of the 5G networks, most notably pushed by the industry giant, Qualcomm, I was ready to dump my current Android smartphone for an over priced 5G phone…
Cheers..
Your shirts are awesome. Way better than the Hawaiian shirts. I’m so going the tie die theme when I get old. Can’t wait for my bugs 3 to get here. Thank you for all your videos. “Signing off”
i love that desert scenery/landscape of many of your vids ^^ 😀
Just got mine a week ago, it refuses to calibrate at all, remote pairs just fine etc, but the lights do three flashes at the front and three at the back all the time no matter what i do (i have not put it into headless mode), has anybody else had this problem? I live in New Zealand and it took weeks to arrive from gear best and it will weeks and weeks to send back and wait for them to replace it. also it picks up between 11 to 14 satelites in gps mode.
What cellphone do you use?

If you had to choose between the Bugs 2W and the X3 Hax which would you choose? Why? Hard to find a good comparison.
