Upgraded C-Fly Obtain Long Range FPV GPS Drone Flight Test Review

The Obtain has been updated with improved gimbal stabilization and extended digital FPV video and control range. Upgraded version is available through TomTop Banggood and GearBest

Pros
- Folding design brushless motor quadcopter, very reminiscent of Mavic Pro.
- Controller includes a built-in 802.11ac 5G WiFi repeater amplifier. This frequency will not create interference with the 2.4Ghz controller. The FPV receiver/transmitter system has been updated to enable improved digital data FPV reception at greater range on your 802.11ac capable phone or tablet.
- 3 axis brushless stabilized gimbal with remote up/down tilt capability. Gimbal's firmware has been updated for improved leveling and stability as compared to original Obtain.
- 1080p HD camera with 2K digital still capability.
- Flight modes of altitude hold, GPS position hold, GPS circle position, and return to home. Follow me and waypoint modes are also available via its app only.
- Return to home and landing on manual selection, and automatic return and landing on loss of signal and low voltage.
- Fast flier in altitude hold mode.
- Smart DVR. Knows to stop recording and finalize the video file if you accidentally turn off the quadcopter without first stopping the video recording. Wish every camera quadcopter had that feature.
- 3S 3800mah battery produces flight time of up to 20 minutes.

Cons:
- Requires 5G WiFi (802.11 ac) capable smartphone or tablet. Phones/tablets with older 2.4Ghz WiFi will not work with this drone.
- microSD card slot is difficult to insert and remove a memory card.
- Very important to conduct a proper compass calibration before flight. If drone starts toilet bowl circling, land immediately and redo the compass calibration.
- On screen telemetry information of range, height, and distance is very difficult to see with the tiny font of the app.
