Opinions on DroneX Pro?

Seems too good to be true …

Currently being marketed at £78 with free shipping:

The video is pretty misleading as it mixes footage of totally different drones!

This one (and others like it) cropped up in our scam thread earlier in the year:

What even is it other than a scam?

Yes of course, the aim being to inform and educate people about these scams, so they don’t fall victim.

It’s a rebranded Eachine E58.

Can be had for under £30 from China.

Ah yes I had heard about these now that I’ve had a look at @callum EBay link

Yes it is too good to be true, like an idiot I fell for it, I eventually sold it for about half what I paid for it. So it is a scam and like most things that look too good to be true, it’s rubbish.

Isn’t this the Eachine E58 drone currently selling on Banggood for £32.15. I have one of these and they are well worth the money.

Good cheap little training drone, my first one.

Does it still fly?

I bought one and sent it back it’s a clone, the antenna are not connected to anything, it takes off away on its own no control the video is a Mavic pro not this piece of rubbish (almost swore then) :joy:

Yep

Yes I really don’t get how they can advertise like that

Wow okay

I am now suspicious about any advertising these days especially on Facebook etc., I have been working on my first video past 5 weeks and learning how to affect video pictures and try to make bad pictures as my drone camera was not set up correctly and these guys who are experts with these packages can do anything

Oh I forgot to say there is a video on you tube about this drone and it’s a copy of the E58 which is a clone of the Mavic pro so it’s a clone of a clone check it out on you tube I think the guy is German

It’s the exact same as an E58, just rebranded.

For what it is E58 is not a bad little toy for around the house and Eachine is a decent company.

Theres absolutely no excuse for the marketing with DroneX pro though and some of the other ones.
