 Hey guys Shaper 1000 here today We're going to be reviewing The Sky Viper Journey Pro Stick around let's see how well it does This is the Sky Viper Journey Pro Okay This is what we got really cheap but now for those of you that you know You're probably not buying a new one if you like it. It's 98 dollars through Walmart's website I don't know if they've got them at the store. I know they do sell some droons right out of the store but You go online you get this for 98 bucks, okay? So, you know it comes with start out, you know it comes with your drone, of course Comes with your flying guy Of course the controller and this piece here. I'll show you how to put it on the controller This is what holds your cell phone Of course, it's not going to hold a tablet You get four extra blades and also if you buy this new You can get free parts up to one year worth of free parts. You have free replacement parts for one year So that's pretty good comes with a screwdriver So you can change your blades and also to take the back off of your your controller and It comes with a battery For the drone the battery is a 3.7 1200 milliamp hour battery. So that's a pretty good battery So apparently they've upgraded from what I'm Getting online. Okay, so you're Here's your Like instructions they call it a flying guy. Okay? So right here, you know it shows you about how to change the How to change the blades if you need to replace damaged blades, which I'm sure I will sooner or later This this does take three triple-a batteries My other one took four double-a But you know you just take that screw out and your batteries are underneath there I've already got the batteries in this All right Now I'll show you how to put this on real simple stick it on there like that and it's in it's locked in So all right, there's that But it's always best to show you how to charge the battery Oh, it did come with the with the charging cable for the USB charging cable It's in the garage because I was charging the battery so it shows you how to hook it up and The lights green When you plug in or red when you plug it in and when it's charged It's green now depending if it's ran if you ran it all the way down Takes about an hour to an hour and a half to charge That's with it Clear dead all the way dead so green and it's got you know, it's got your fail safe a lot of things that it does I'll read some of the things when the drone turns upside down the motors will stop spinning When the drone gets out of range of the controller It will begin to return to its home location if the controller reconnects Press home button to cancel the return. This is your your home button right there And we'll get we'll get to that here in a minute When the drone's battery is low the LEDs on the drone will begin to blink rapidly and a tone is played Continuously on the controller the drone will begin to return to its home location Press the home button to cancel When the drone's battery is depleted the drone will automatically land itself in its current position The automatic landing cannot be interrupted with the controller Okay, so that's pretty cool. So let's um Let's go over this Ever this controller, okay Now here you got your you know, you got your throttle You got your up down Rotate left rotate right. This is your direct directional joystick and that's another thing. It's very comfortable See my other one was a big square, but this is this is kind of like, you know, like a game controller So it's pretty cool. This is your directional stick. That's forward backwards left and right and Then of course, this is your power button turning on and off This is your launch button if you flip that up there It automatically takes off when you want it to land You hit that and it'll automatically land and This is for your stomp mode. That's normal and That's your sport. I mean, so there's two different. It'll Like this is your normal mode for normal flying if you're going to be doing stunts or aerobatics You hit your sport and it's really fast. This thing is super fast But we'll check all that out here in a little while. Okay, so And all this it tells you everything about this drone Okay You know, it's got high performance flight modes and Position hold also which is a hover Okay, the position hold position hold Uses GPS to maintain a perfect hover. It also prevents drifting when you have no hands on the controller Position hold is active in both normal and sport mode. So that's pretty cool now Like I said, I've had this out and I have messed with it a little bit and it seems it will hover it hovers pretty good Now it's a drone. It's a very light drone. So you'll get every once in a while, you know It's just like in a plane an airplane. You're gonna get some turbulence. It'll move a little bit But that's okay. All right but yeah, it's And like I said, it shows you everything about a position hold and also the GPS On this thing You know, it actually looks for satellites. All right When I had it out Saturday, I was picking up 17 satellites up there at our park where we was trying this out Okay, so there's that now. Let's let's go to a little bit on here. No, here's where you're gonna put your battery in right here That's out of my older Or my other drone, which I fabricated to make this work in this drone. So All right, so you're gonna take this She had insert the battery just Slide it in there just like that And put your latch down if you only have the one battery you can charge it without taking it out every time Just plug it in there and then it will plug in Right here so now I can say the guards these guards you don't have to have tools to take these guards off They just pop off and on so And here is your camera. It's 720 high def. So it is full screen but now this Has almost a 90 degree. So there you go. You got to manually do that, but I usually keep it Right about there But it depends on what you're filming and and all that so but you know, it's not you can't deal with the controller But hey, it's a hundred dollar drone, you know, you can't complain about that All right, so and it also has that's pretty much on that, you know I do wish it had some little rubber rubber pieces right here for the landing, but that's okay because see I think the reason why they don't is because some some guys like to bring this this thing in real fast Like down the road and it kind of like Scrapes along the road. It's pretty cool. Maybe that's why they know. I don't know but you know, it's fine. It's a hundred dollar drone again Now It also has okay. It's got return to home Which once the drone has GPS locked And you'll know right here versus GPS It'll blink red and green red and green While it's looking for satellites and then as soon as it's got them locked on or locked onto at least one of them That green light will stay lit. The red light will be out letting you know that uh, so It is set to the current location when you launch so your home button when you want it to go home Wherever that thing launched from it's using GPS. It'll go back to that So if you walk away 50 feet while you're watching your drone fly or whatnot and you hit home button It's not going to come to you. It'll go to where you had it take off from So With a simple press of the button and that that again, that's this button right here. You just hit that button And that thing will come right right back to where it took off. I usually try to stay right where I'm at. So During this return flight You will still have altitude and direction control to avoid obstacles because you know, it doesn't have sensors in it like if you're You know, if there's a tree or a telephone pole there or a flagpole You know, you're going to want to watch make sure it's going to go around or make sure That you take it around it if it seems to be going towards something so The return flight can be canceled by pressing the flight mode or land buttons. So that's cool which is Right there. It's your land button When using the sky viper When using the sky viper video viewer 2.0 app, you can return to your device's gps location instead So that's pretty cool It also has follow me mode and we'll get to that here in a minute What that does is you can walk around and this thing will stay with you. Okay Also This has Right up under here Right there There's a place for your sd card And it takes a micromania. I got 32 gig it'll hold up 32 gig and you just push that in there. That's what I like about that Okay, or you can Stream To your phone. Okay. Whoops. Now. Let's let's get to the app. Let's check the app out. Okay Let's get this on here We'll go to the app That's what the app looks like right there It doesn't have real good reviews. I think it's a 3.6 reviews on the reviews, but I I like I like it better than the the drocon app for my other drone. So All right now Let's see. Let's go ahead and Let's see. There's it's also got a tutorial and support up here. This is where This is everything I've took pictures with this thing. So It does have your library there. Now, let's plug this in and let's uh pair it up So I can show you the All right, now we're going to hit this and there sky viper. We are connected. So let's go back And okay, we're going to Skip that I forget what the hell was that anyway. Now, of course, that's the same. All right now. This is you know, you Flight authorization. I have the authorization If required to fly in this location So you're going to have to hit that if you want to get into your app. There you go There you go connection to the controller has been lost. Okay, so it's telling me that the controller is not on Okay, so that's pretty cool. But we don't need the controller on as of right now. So There's that. All right Now we are connected. We're inside. So We're inside the house in this little number right there That is the satellites. We're inside the house picked up four satellites five satellites So it's still searching but now also if you look here this This is a That is a compass. Can you see that moving when I turn the drone? say So that's your compass that is pretty cool. So if y'all fly somewhere and you get lost You can use this for a compass to get back home. Now. This is the follow me mode. I was telling you about When you put it in that mode When you click that mode that thing you can walk around and it will follow you But you have to make sure that there's no obstacles in a way. All right so And this is telling you right here how far Like this will tell you how far up and down you are this will tell you like Like which direction? Like if it say that way, you know But this will tell you up now and I've had it up to 147.7 feet so far at half throttle So and this will let you know gps or gps is on So also you have your There's your record button And there's your still image button You've got a map you can also download maps on this thing And You can also when you do that like you download a map of where you're at you can set pinpoints. All right And you can set say six pinpoints where you want this this thing to go All right, and then you hit launch And this thing will actually go to each one of them pinpoints by itself until it gets to the last one Then it comes home. You don't even have to be touching the controller You can set it down and go have a sandwich and this thing will be filming for you Just make sure there's no trees or buildings around Okay, now also I wanted to show you about this here. Okay this There's your video button And your stunt button Now if you're not using your phone to fly this thing, which you don't have to if you're just wanting to Fly around and stuff. You don't need to use your phone And let's say you want to take a still image. Well, all you can do is click video, right? Well, what you can do is you can go into this app here And under settings Yeah, over here On this side You can say what each one of these buttons do so as you can see All right I've got The top shoulder All right as the uh, wait a minute bottom shoulders Oh, that's that's that's in the other mode. That's that's in the fast mode. Okay. All right, so let's put it into uh The normal mode let it do its thing All right, there we go. No, I was right Okay, you can set all this stuff. All right. See I've got it on gps hold All right for the normal and the sport is on sport You can have it on gps, but for sport You know You're just going to be flying at yourself. Anyway, so the top button top shoulder. It's called As if you're looking at it this way The top button says stunt On it, but you can change it to photo and that's what I did So when I when I hit that the the stunt stunt button It will take a picture a still image and then the bottom button You can have you can change it for stunt photo. You can change those buttons to do whatever you want And of course, I've got it on video for the bottom button. So the bottom button I can uh Take my video and top button. I can take my still image So that way in case I'm just out flying around and I don't have this I can still I can still uh take still images You know now this this here This one right there This is pretty cool. This gives you all that information And when you hit export it puts it onto your phone so you can you can keep it Uh, so like the max altitude we we had this thing up to 147.7 feet And of course the lowest one was Zero feet. That's because I snapped a picture Still image picture in the garage so and then The lowest we had it up to was 92.3 See that and it tells you, you know, um Three videos taken Photos taken max altitude air time. I've had this thing up for 12 Minutes 19 seconds on this one battery on one charge. So that's and it was windy. So that's pretty good. I've made 11 flights So I love this. This is cool. It's your flight activity And like I said each one of these you can export right into your phone And you can save it. So and then again that one there Is for your, you know, there's the pictures I have taken there's the video and That's loading from the sd card which I've got it to go to sd card and there's what's on my card. So That's a little bit about it. Now, what do you say we take this thing outside and um Let's see what it does Okay guys, I got you sitting here in the shade And I'm going to go out here and the first thing I'm going to do I'm going to set this down and we're going to hit the launch button Which will be right there and I'll show you And here we go now. I'm going to hit the video button All right, and if you watch this over here, can you see that? Okay, we are now recording okay Now let's hit the launch button And see what There it goes Now it's hovering Okay, it also has a calibration through your settings on your On the app so you can see what it's doing there. It is recording And let's hit the top button. We'll take a still image Okay Now let's take this up a little higher and we'll stop it Okay, right now we are 18 feet in air Okay There it is Take it up a little higher Now let's turn it and we can go sideways And forwards and backwards And I'll leave it there now what we're going to do guys Let's see if you can see this All right, let's hit the land button and see what happens. Okay It is coming in for a landing And it will power off by itself And it just did Okay guys, this is what I was talking about. It's trying to find gps. It's trying to find satellites and up here Or yeah, it's found 14. Okay So and we're locked on green So we're ready to go. So let's go ahead and launch this And we'll see if it'll come back home. Okay, so let's hit the launch button As you can see we're not doing anything else and let's get ready to take off All right, so there it is Now let's take it over across the street All right, now let's hit the home button Okay, we hit the home button And There it is So it came back towards us now. Let's hit the land button While it's going to land So it is within a couple feet So that's pretty cool and it'll shut down and let me go get it Okay, let's get Let's get some hovering pictures. Okay, so Let's go ahead and We're gonna hit this button over here Turn the video on We are recording Let's hit launch and there it goes. Now, let's take it over here Backward and I hit the home button And came back home Now I'm going to go over here in the shade. Well, I'll get it up in the air first. All right, let's launch it GPS hold is on So there's that I was to take it up a little higher and we are recording Right now. We're at 23 feet And it's holding steady there steady a little windy So I'm going to go out here and play with this for a minute and get you guys some footage Okay, guys, let's Let's bring this back down. I know you can't see it right now, but you will Now I'm going to bring it home Hit the home button right over top Before we started there And it's coming home so Let's watch it come down together You see I don't have the remotes in my hand It's landing on its own There's the remote So it will come within a few feet Of where it took off. There it is And it has landed. All right, so Not bad Let's see how high we had it up. Okay, so we're going to go to this I'm going to go to this. All right, we just had it 66 feet up that's still the max altitude that I I've had it up This thing's been in the air 24 minutes so far. Let's see So today's date there we go So we had it 66 feet in the air Let's see if it recorded We've got to go to the sd card And it's loading See it imports it just like just like you would put it on your computer There we go. So we've got all this all this footage up here. So And I think I took a still image here. Yeah, I did right there Okay, so let's go back in the house And let's do our final thoughts on this thing and see what we think of it Okay guys, so We're back in the house overall the drone for a hundred dollars If you want to get a a beginner drone I think so far this is the drone for you to learn on It's very easy to control You do have to watch the wind, of course, but it does stay pretty stable. We had Gus out there I did check the Whether we had Gus up to 24 miles per hour So it will get a little wobbly on you sometimes coming down. You know, it'll hit some turbulence It is light But all in all I give it a two thumbs up The controller is very comfortable. I like it I do like everything about it Very good. And I like the fact that if you buy it new you get your Monkey stop moving You get free replacement parts for a year That includes shipping and handling charges so See bottom for detail and that's all down in here So and there's the battery that comes with it You can get extra battery packs Extra chargers you can get everything you need for this. You can get extra motors If you've got a motor go bad eventually that stuff's going to happen if you use them a lot but I think What I what I don't like about it is the gears Right in there those gears They're open Okay So you can get more stuff in it, but hopefully it being open it may Blow it out as you can see it's a little dirty in there So, I mean you just got to be careful with that I wish that was kind of closed off a little more being down here in florida with all the sand But you can get all these parts like I said and they're cheap. Why aren't you moving? So anyway That and the app I don't know why it's only got 3.6 stars, but I do love the app on it Um The thing does run good. It is fairly steady for being in this kind of wind Um, actually it's very steady I did have a couple little I didn't have a calibrated it first and you can tell because it wants to go different places also On your app, it'll tell you gps hole And if you want to hover And you want it to come back home make sure that that says gps hold on it And make sure it's you know, it's activated. So that way you're locked on To a satellite and it'll it'll come back. If not, it's going to want to move around on you And you just hold it there until and it doesn't take long and then it'll it'll find another satellite lock onto it I love the audible sounds that this makes let you know different things I love the way the lights will start blinking differently. They'll blink really fast When uh When your battery is getting low also on your app, it will come across and tell you battery levels extremely low. So Let's see what was a saturday when uh the last flight I took out there at the park I went ahead and let the battery run. I just let it hover until the battery just depleted itself and the thing It was over Oh about 50 feet it came back in the general area within a few feet, which is very impressive within Six feet six eight feet Uh, it did come down and it did land on its own. All right now as for the footage I'm going to throw the footage that we just recorded in at the end of here So you'll be seeing that here in just a second. So That being said guys, I want to say thanks for watching This thing will do so much more. There's so much more calibration On it that you should do every time you take it out and fly it and only takes a couple minutes Um, there's so much more this can do that. I just can't get go over in one video But if you have any questions Leave them in the comments below and I'll get back to you and the answer to the best of my ability So all right. So enjoy the uh footage we we had we we had it up 14 feet 39 feet. I think I'll put that in the you know I'll let you know which one you're looking at and we had it up to 66 feet So and I didn't want to go real high here because of all the trees If something would happen if I lose GPS lock or something and it drops down into a tree 60 feet in there I'm kind of screwed. So I wanted to be careful here, but we did get it 66 feet up in the air So enjoy the clips and again, thanks for watching and Monkey's gonna say she's out And she bear I'm gonna say the met the man legend. I'm gone for now Enjoy the clips of the uh Drone footage that we took together
