The fact that it even kind of flies for $13 is pretty amazing to me.

An MIT student was fired from his job studying at Harvard. He created this revolutionary product that powers your whole house using only frosted donuts.
Big Donut keeps trying to take him down, but the People's Court ruled that he's the best boy, and now this technology is available to you for only $6, 000!

The problem is that you didn't pay $5, 000 for it. The drone is so advanced, it knows this, hence will disable all of its nifty features.

In all fairness, that $12 knockoff drone is absolutely PERFECT for capturing images of Bigfoot, the Loch Ness Monster and most UFOs.

To be fair, if someone somehow managed to sell that to the military they would charge at least $5000

Hey Ken, glad I could help out on this video! It was a blast working together, but not so fun flying the SkyQuad... 😬

I love that they say about the collision detection feature and immediately follow that with a clip of a drone ploughing into a tree.

Funny how all those ads sound so similar. Big company keeps prices high and one engineer takes all in his own hands and now everyone can have it for a „low“ price.

This item was received by me as a Christmas gift this year and purchased through the Best Buy marketplace from a different dropshipper by a family member of mine, because they knew that I was interested in the drone hobby. While researching the specs and abilities of this device online, I was recommended this video. the $299.99 "pre sale" price which was so graciously bumped down to 200 Canadian dollars by the seller parted my family member from a sizeable chunk of money during a time when they are soon to become on a fixed income. Please make your families aware of shady practices like this and have them get into the habit of searching for other listings for expensive items they'd like to buy so that people stop falling for stuff like this. Thank you for making this video, without it the person who purchased this product would be none the wiser.

A text to speech voiceover is the biggest and most obvious clue its a scam. No legitimate company would do that, unless they are promoting AI or something.

A $5, 000 for $100, but is really only $12 ? Yeah, that’s about right!

I’ve watched your videos for a few years and I’ve learned a lot, but even if I didn’t, it’s pretty obvious that it’s a scam.

I’m not an expert in drones, but I know it’s a scam when they show the expensive original but not the cheap copy.

This was a very educational video….

[mam]

its actually impressive to me that someone made that for less than 12 bucks

[glynnetolar]

But YouTube insists we must watch these scan ads. Kind of tells you who YouTube really is.

[CsabaTothMr]

5:36 on the AliExpress page there are two color variants can be selected, and the currently selected has a Color: 1080P. Isn't the resolution 1080P? No, the color! So tragicomically funny, I love it!

[ThePrufessa]

The patent expired? Patents last a lot longer than hobby drones have been in existence!

[simonro]

Honestly, if it had local recording, for $12 I wouldn't be too upset.

[The_Original_Cujo]

The camera on this drone is actually perfect quality to record footage of bigfoot

[TheClearchoice]

I love people like you that are MythBusters and expose these corrupt companies thank you very much

[JoshBowren]

You got a subscribe from me for this video. As a Part 107 pilot I can verify that everything in this video is spot on. A great commentary on scams and drones. I knew it was bad, but I didn't know the scams were this bad. Bravo.

[SuperpowerBroadcasting]

I've seen that ad so many times. Thank you for debunking this.
