that shoots 4K video
at 60 frames a second.
Coming up.

Hey, what's up guys?
Sean here with THiNK Media,
bringing you the best
tips and tools for building your influence
with online video, and we're hear at CES,
looking for the best tools for creators
so that we can ultimately
tell our story better
on social media and with online video.
And drones are one of
the best ways to do that,
and something that we at THiNK Media
have been getting into a lot lately.
And so we were pumped when we discovered
this EVO drone from Autel.
Now, this drone is not out yet,
it's coming out sometime this year.
And it's gonna have a
competitive price point
at $999 here in the U.S., or below,
price isn't set yet.
And this drone has a lot of features,
so let's check 'em out.
So first up, when we check out this drone,
we notice that it has a
foldable compact style
that's really very
similar to the DJI Mavic,
and it definitely feels
kind of like a similar
build quality, but definitely
heavier, a little bit,
And it definitely feels very sturdy.
Now, on here we do have our camera.
It's a fixed 2.8 aperture, and the field
of view is 94 degrees.
Now, one of the cool
things about this camera
is that it shoots 4K
at 60 frames a second,
and so what's great is you can
have that crispy 4K footage,
but also get 2x slow motion when shooting.
Additionally, you've got
forward, downward, and rear
sensors for obstacle
avoidance to prevent crashes.
They also have it listed
with multiple different
intelligent flight modes,
plus you have a flight range
of 7 kilometers which is about
4.3 miles here in the U.S.
And one of the standout features
about this drone is the remote.
And so just like other drone remotes,
you can mount your smart
phone on here to monitor
your flight, but this
remote also has a built-in
OLED screen, so you can
see all the data on here,
your range, your exposure,
all of those things.
But if you press and hold the back button,
you can also use that screen
as a flight monitor as well.
So kind of a cool feature
to give you some versatility
for how you use it,
maybe your phone's dead,
maybe you don't even have a phone.
You still want to be able to fly it,
you can with just the
remote and just the drone.
And so this drone was
announced here at CES 2018,
and the specs on paper
and being able to feel it,
all look really promising,
but as anything,
you actually gotta get your
hands on it to test it,
and so I'm excited to do that.
But being here and actually
seeing them fly it around
in the drone booth and so on and so forth,
it definitely looks
promising, but we'll have to
wait and see until we can actually
test one out here at THiNK Media.
Now as far as my final thoughts go,
as we said, we have not tested it yet,
but one kind of just bigger perspective
for the THiNK Media
community is I really want
to encourage you this
year to consider upgrading
to some kind of drone.
You know, when it comes to storytelling,
being able to do the
setting, being able to show
where you are, being able
to add creative elements
with aerial photography and videography
can really level up your
game on social media
and in your videos.
And what I love is
drones that are portable.
'Cause the larger drones
get, the easier it is
to not take them with you when you travel,
when you're on the road.
And so a drone that has
foldable arms like this,
that you can just throw in a bag
is definitely something
that I'm excited about,
but I'd love to hear from you.
The question of the day is what
do you think about the EVO?
Do you already have a
drone, have you tested out
any drones, and are you excited
to learn more about this?
Definitely let me know
in the comments section.
