what's happening everyone my name is Alex and welcome back in today's video we are checking
out the latest drone from potency don't we have here today it's called the potensic atom now a
few months ago I've also tried the potensic atom SE drone and this one the one that we have here
today is basically the upgraded version of that one so everything about this one is basically
better than the previous model but the biggest change is the fact that the camera on this drone
is now sitting on a three axis gimbal this is very important because now it doesn't matter if it's
windy out if the Drone isn't flying on an angle the footage will always be nice and steady so very
very important whenever you're recording footage with a drone the maximum recording resolution from
this drone and its camera is 4K 30 frames per second and all the footage that you're gonna be
seeing throughout this video was recorded in 4k 30 frames per second and it hasn't been modified
in any way also very important to know this run weights under 250 grams you're not gonna have to
register it before I'm flying it but definitely check out the regulations before flying the Drone
because the regulations may be different depending on your location now since I have the drone on
you can actually see the gimbal in action so it doesn't matter if the Drone is moving left right
up down the camera basically stays nice and steady and of course when you are flying that's gonna be
very very important I just wanted to show you how that actually works all right let's start
by doing a bit of an unboxing just so I can show you what comes in the Box some other drone and
I also got the fly more combo the fly more combo basically brings you a couple of extra batteries
and a charger for those some batteries so now I have a total of three batteries and a fast charger
for those batteries so I can charge all three in about an hour and a half on One battery the Drone
can fly for about 32 minutes but of course that will depend on the wind conditions how fast you
are flying and so on but you should be able to get about 30 minutes without any problem alright so
the Drone comes in this box right here and inside the Box you're basically gonna find everything
you need so you can start flying right away Inside the Box you're also gonna find this carrying case
basically everything fits in this carrying case the controller the charger for the three batteries
the three batteries the Drone the cables the spare propellers everything basically fits in here so
you're just gonna have to take this audio whenever you go out in that carrying case you're also
gonna find a variety of cables you can basically connect any phone to the controller so this is the
controller of course this comes in the box we have an antennas here's the joysticks here's are also
removable so you can also remove the joysticks to make the controller a bit smaller however the
controller actually fits in that carrying case as it is so you don't actually have to remove those
joysticks so basically the phone connects to the controller just like this this can probably fit a
small tablet as well maybe like an iPad mini and then the cable connects to the controller here
then the controller connects to the Drone so very easy to use and of course in the box there you're
also going to find some user manuals we have some spare propellers as I mentioned earlier we
have some replacement and screws so if you want to replace the propellers here if you crash the Drone
or something like that you can easily replace them this so everything you need is in the Box
including a 64 gig SD card that was actually inside the Drone the batteries are located on
the back of the Drone here so you can basically pull on them like this there is kind of like a
clip on the back here and that's how you remove them it takes about a second to remove this and
replace it with another one that's under charged and as I said you get about 30 to 32 minutes on
One battery for a flying time the Drone itself is mostly made out of plastic like most drones
out there and of course this is a folding drone as well so this is how easy you would basically fold
this it takes on about 10 seconds to do and the same to unfold this so that easy to unfold this
now the Drone also comes with the protector for that three axis gimbalm you have to remove this
before you power on the Drone and before you fly this so remove this some carefully you basically
don't want to damage that um three axis Gimbal and at the bottom here we have the power button
and four LEDs those LEDs will basically show you how much battery the Drone has to power
this one you basically press that once and then you press it the second time so kind of like this
and then you hold it pressed for the second time and then the Drone powers on we also have an LED
right here and on the back it's gonna make it easier to see the Drone mostly if you're not
um flying uh during the day and um at the bottom here we also have some sensors I'm assuming Those
sensors are used whenever the Drone is landing now of course this drone also connects to a variety of
satellites so first of all it's gonna stay nice and steady whenever it's hovering it's gonna
say in the exact same position I was actually quite surprised to see that even if it's windy
it doesn't seem to move on from the place um it's hovering so it stays nice and steady but also very
important it can fly back to the location where it done the first time took off so for example
if it gets disconnected from the controller if the controller's batteries die for example
or I don't know you drop the controller in water basically the Drone will fly back to the location
or it took off and then it will Land by itself so yes it does have that feature like most drones
these days as for video transmission and range so basically you're gonna be able to see the footage
on your phone and the footage that the camera sees right on your phone and through the controller the
manufacturer says that you can get up to six kilometers away now I haven't personally tried
to see how far the Drone flies because based on the current regulations where I am located now
you always have to be able to see the Drone with your own eyes so up to six kilometers of range
but I'm assuming that's gonna be under ideal conditions realistically you're probably gonna
get about two to three kilometers depending on your location because if you're flying over a
busy town for example it's probably gonna be way lesson than that as well so under ideal conditions
you should be able to get up to six kilometers away with a drone and still be able to see the
footage on your phone you can also see the drone's location on the map and of course that's going to
be helpful mostly if you're flying further away from yourself you can't really see the Drone with
your own eyes but you can easily open the map and then you can see where the Drone is located
and where you're located and then you can fly it back um towards them yourself you're gonna
be able to see the live view so whatever the Drone sees you're gonna be able to see that on
your phone and you can also switch in between the video mode and picture taking mod these are a few
pictures that I took with this drone over the past couple of days so nice and sharp pictures
some as well the Drone also has some intelligent flying features also known as quick shots so you
have like a pull away mode you have a rocket mode you have a circle mode you have a spiral mode and
a boomerang mode so you basically select the subject you basically select them yourself and
then the Drone will do kind of like a circle or pull away depending on the flying mode that you've
selected now keep in mind that this drone doesn't have obstacle avoidance so be aware we're gonna be
flying those modes because if there are any threes if there are any electrical lines any buildings
the Drone may hit those if they are in the drones way basically whenever it's doing a
circle or whatever modem you've chosen so be aware of your surroundings it doesn't have
obstacle avoidance and if there is something in its way it will crash into it because it doesn't
actually see the thumb there is an obstacle on in its ways so be aware of that so to quickly
conclude this video for a budget friendly drone I feel that this does quite well the footage from
midterm the 4K at 30 frames per second footage from it is nice and crisp now of course you're
gonna have to fly during the day I don't actually recommend flying any drone at night during the
day it does great the footage is nice and crisp it's also quite steady and I was quite impressed
by that and the Drone also does good even if it's windy out I wasn't expecting to do that good when
it's windy out because here it does get them quite quite um windy at times so for a budget
friendly drone it does get really really close to those DJ drones that are more expensive alright
guys hopefully you enjoyed this video thanks for watching and I'll see you guys in the next one
