Yuneec Mantis Q Drone – Is It Any Good? My First Impressions
Yuneec launched the Mantis Q foldable drone mid 2018. It’s filled with nice useable options, however lacks impediment avoidance and a three axis digicam gimbal.

its company has a website stating "yuneec USA" . very clever
Man that carmera on you head make this video hard to watch. You are constantly all over the place I had to stop watching
My mantis q drone keeps disconnecting about 100 meters why anyone?
nice conetent?
AHHH! I'll kick all your butts with my treacherous SG-900. lol Hey, are there any drones that can take one of those transmitters with 6 channel receivers?
Do you think you can fly in light rain?
Controller seems cheap
for $500, the parrot Anafi is twice the drone this one is.
Initially, I wanted to buy this drone, but after spending hours watching YouTube videos about drones, my eyes are set on DJI Mavic Air.
want to see more on the sjrc f11 drone ??? you did a z5 review did you do a f11 and i just missed it?
to compete the price has to come down. is this a GPS drone? for the price i have to assume it is but not sure.
I'm not a huge camera guy and it still looks absolutely great. "To me". I think the biggest selling point over the spark is I really like the speed of this drone and the battery life is a huge selling point for me as well. Great review.
This is heavily advertised in my country now; I'm a photographer actually and would be a newcomer to drones, just looking into a cheap and SMALL one (as my country has very rigid drone laws) – MY main criteria is whether it can shoot RAW. The Mantis Q can (at 13 MP) but sadly the DJI Spark, while everyone praises it to be the better drone, can only shoot JPEG (at 12 MP), which is a no go. I'll have to look into Parrot yet. Real pity about the Spark.
This is a great drone for beginners. With a longer battery life. Yeah the stabilizers aren’t perfect which is why it’s a beginners drone with a cheap price point. I love the drone it works well and does exactly what it claims to do. I bought this for my dad for Christmas because he is wanting to get into drones. He loves it and that makes me happy! Next Christmas I’ll upgrade him to a better quality more expensive drone. But this one is perfect for him to test the waters before getting a top notch drone!
Great review as always. I like it. I think a $350 price point is fair. You can get a spark with remote for about the same. The advantage the Mantis Q is its folding prop arms.
I have a Yuneec breeze and the only difference I see is foldable arms…I'll pass. The breeze worked great on my wife and I's anniversary at Galvesten Island TX… $149 at Walmart. An extra battery and charger…about $225 total…same picture quality and same modes…no thanks, thanks for the review tho Captain Drone…I want a Typhoon H, have the breeze and the Q500…wanna start with the H, then maybe the Hplus down the road;;;happy flying !!!
Why is there no stabilization for 4K? How do they even effect each other?
Great video. It’s the first time I have seen this drone. Thanks for the overview. Too bad it doesn’t have a real gimbal, but other than that it looks like a decent drone.
Hope you didn’t eat a big dinner? What?
485g so thats got to be registered in the uk as its over 250g and that will cost you £1000
Concerning noise level, how does it compare with the Parrot Anafi? Spark? Mavic Air?
Great review. It doesn't seem too bad, though I believe the Spark is a better choice in this price range.
