Camera
Today, Yuneec Breeze is equipped with the best among the top selfie drones 13-megapixel 4K camera built on 1 / 3.06- inch CMOS matrix. As such, the camera does not have a suspension; the electronics and vibration dampers on which it is mounted are responsible for image stabilization. A significant advantage here is the ability to remotely control the vertical angle of the camera from 0 ° - 90 °. For a drone with an emphasis on selfies, the camera has an optimal field of view (FOV) of 117 °. In 4K mode, image stabilization does not work, in FHD and HD modes, EIS deserves respect.
Power supply
Yuneec Breeze is equipped with two 3-can (3S / 11.1V) lithium-polymer batteries "POWER 3-A ”, With a capacity of 1150mAh, one is installed directly into the drone, the second fits into the proprietary case next to it. The rechargeable battery is made in a kind of box, installation and removal is carried out as on modern premium drones. Provides max. flight time - 12 minutes. Charges from the included charger in record time - 20 minutes. Let's attribute this fact to the pluses.
Control
The quadcopter can be controlled classically, via a smartphone / tablet running on IOS or Android, through the free mobile application “Breeze Cam ". And also for the most active users, the manufacturer has prepared an FPV kit, which includes VR-glasses and a remote control, and enjoy the first-person flight. Or simply place the smartphone paired with the drone into the holder on the remote control and control the drone in the classic way (“FPV
Next is the ease of use, everything is intuitive. If the launch is carried out on the street, then it is necessary to activate the GPS, with one touch on the icon in the form of a "satellite" on the left of the display. When flying indoors, the GPS is turned off by tapping again; in this case, 2 × IR sensors in tandem with an optical sensor located at the bottom of the drone are responsible for safe flight.
In control, the Breeze is extremely responsive and demonstratively stable, but do not forget that the primary purpose of the drone is a selfie and it would be unnecessary to expect impressive dynamics from it. I worked out all the programmed flight modes without any complaints. Beginners will fully appreciate the functions of auto takeoff and landing, as well as holding a position.
When it comes to photography, the Yuneec Breeze is the best among selfie drones such as Wingsland S6Xiro Xplorer Mini / Hover Passport Camera Drone / Dobby / JJRC H37. It should be noted that in UHD mode, the electronic stabilization does not work and the camera realizes its full potential in FHD mode.
But in general, when processing the recorded 4K video with a simple editor on a PC, all the shortcomings are fully compensated, and the output is excellent photo and video shooting for a selfie drone.
The mobile application is perfectly adapted to implement the exchange of captured content through all known social media. networks and video hosting. The flight time in practice was about 8 minutes, which is not enough for a selfie drone, but if you take into account 2 × batteries in the kit and only 20 minutes to charge, then everything is fine.
