Take a look at the MJX Bugs 3 Pro

The Bugs 3 Pro looks to be a souped-up version of the original Bugs 3. It will get more powerful 2204 1500 KV motors and GPS. That means you’ll get both more power and functionality with the Bugs 3 Pro than you would even with the Bugs 2. These motors are more powerful and efficient than the smaller Bugs 3.

Bugs 3 GPS
The Bugs 3 Pro has a bright LED in the front.

The GPS functionality of the Bugs 3 Pro will make the drone a lot more stable than the original Bugs 3. You will also get the Return to Home feature for safety in case you lose signal, have a low battery, or decide to call the quad home. It will also add an orbit mode, follow me and a waypoints function. The newly designed app is fantastic and has a DJI like feel to it.

The C6000 is the camera we would recommend for the Bugs 3 Pro.

MJX is producing three different camera options for the new Bugs models. You have the option of their C4000, C5000, and C6000 cameras. All three are 8 MP HD cameras the difference being the C4000 films in 1080p, the C5000 is 720p and has built-in 5G WiFi that will work with the Bugs app, while the top-of-the-line C6000 is 1080p and has built-in WiFi that also will connect to the Bugs app. The new Bugs is also capable of carrying a GoPro, or other similar action cameras if you already have your own. We strongly recommend the 1080p Camera with WiFi. The WiFi likely won’t have a ton of range but it will help you line up close range photographs.

The MJX Bugs 3 Pro GPS drone looks to be an excellent quad.

The Bugs 3 Pro should have a flight time of around 20 minutes and a range of around 500 meters. The Bugs 3 Pro is a solid drone and and excellent option for anyone looking for a good beginner, yet stable GPS quad that won’t break the bank.

MJX Bugs 3H review
The MJX Bugs 3 Pro is one of the many awesome MJX Bugs drones you can buy.

There are a lot of promising upcoming drones from MJX including the Bugs 3 Mini, Bugs 3 H, Bugs 3 Pro, Bugs 5W, Bugs 8 Pro and Bugs 10H.
