Xiaomi Fimi X8SE Drone $689, Xiaomi Fimi A3 $399 and Xiaomi Mi Rabbit Drone $89 with Free Delivery Australia Wide @ Roboguy

83

Drone sale on now at RoboGuy, grab one of Fimi's (member of the Xiaomi Ecosystem) new drone models at bargain prices that include GST, 1 Year Australian Warranty and Free Shipping Australia-Wide!

Fimi X8SE Drone: $689

Please note with the Xiaomi Fimi X8SE this will be a pre-sale as the manufacturer will only be releasing stock in early February (before the 20th of February) if you decide at any point after placing a pre-order that you would like to cancel before the item has been dispatched than you will be eligible for a full refund. Once Fimi releases the stock, delivery time will be 7-14 days (that is standard days not business days), we will keep you fully informed on the delivery stage and will be as transparent as possible.
The Fimi X8SE is a good DJI Mavic competitor and offers many similar features (except obstacle avoidance) for a much lower price, it folds down into a very portable size so you can take it where ever you go. It is the successor of the Mi 4K Drone and offers many improvements such as improved camera, increased range, quieter operation, etc. For more info please visit: https://roboguy.com.au/fimi-x8se.html

Fimi A3 Drone: $399

This drone is ready for delivery and should only take 10-15 days (that is standard days not business days) from order date to arrive, if for some reason there are any hold ups prior to dispatching (dispatching is classified as when you get tracking details), then you will be notified and have the option to cancel your order and receive a full refund. Any returns needing to be made after dispatching will have to be made in line with our return policy.
The Fimi A3 Drone is a great DJI Spark competitor and offers some very compelling advantages such as an all in one remote control that has an inbuilt screen and computer and thus does not require a smartphone for flying. For more info please visit: https://roboguy.com.au/fimi-a3.html

Xiaomi Mi Rabbit Drone: $89

This drone is ready for delivery and should only take 10-15 days (that is standard days not business days) from order date to arrive, if for some reason there are any hold ups prior to dispatching (dispatching is classified as when you get tracking details), then you will be notified and have the option to cancel your order and receive a full refund. Any returns needing to be made after dispatching will have to be made in line with our return policy.
The Xiaomi Mi Rabbit Drone is a great little drone for flying indoors, from its small size to its combat gaming modes you can be sure it will offer plenty of fun for anyone who flies it. You could say that this is Xiaomi's answer to the DJI Tello but although both are very similar in size and probably aimed at the same market there features do very quite significantly so not a direct competitor by any means.

———————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————

As some of you may know the Chinese New Year is quickly approaching so in order for us to get your orders dispatched prior to the Chinese New Year please place your orders asap, if we are unable to dispatch your order prior to Chinese New Year you will be notified and given the option of a full refund or the ability to wait (The Chinese New Year will cause a delay of up to 8 days). This will mainly only affect the Fimi A3 and Mi Rabbit Drones as the Fimi X8SE will only be coming out after the Chinese New Year has ended.

As far as we can see these are the cheapest prices available for these particular drones but if you do find cheaper prices elsewhere (including GST and Shipping) please let us know.

If you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask.

        Will he post a photo of his sneakers with a few boxes again this time?

      • can i interest you in some xiaomi sneakers?

      Fool me once, shame on — shame on you. Fool me — you can't get fooled again ;)

    • LOL getting the pop corn ready.

  • I wonder how the Xiaomi Fimi X8 SE Foldable Drone would compare to the likes of a DJI Mavic or Spark

    • It out does the DJI Spark but compares closely to the DJI Mavic probably closest to the DJI Mavic Air. The Xiaomi Fimi X8SE has a 12MP Sony IMX378 Camera capable of capturing 4K video @ 30fps, this camera is stabilized by a 3 axis gimbal for extra smooth footage. The X8SE has a range of up to 5KM and a live HD video stream which can be viewed on your smartphone when connected to the remote control. It has a Flight Time of up to 33 minutes and max flight speed of 64km/h. The Fimi X8SE is also equipped with many smart flight modes such as follow me, orbit flight, dronie flight, etc. Above all it is foldable and very compact just like a DJI Mavic.

        Ok. Now lets be frank her RoboGuy…

        Given our past experience with dealing with yourself, why would we buy off you now??

        • +1

          Good Question!

          First of all we have never de-frauded any customers, yes we had long delivery times on our original OzBargain deal but since than we have made many changes to ensure we do not suffer the same issues again. This time especially we have done alot of behind the scenes work to ensure that orders will be handled quickly and efficiently to ensure that customers get their products on time and are kept fully upto date with their orders delivery status so they are not left in the dark as much as they were originally.

          We also now offer 30 Day Returns and the 1 Year Warranty which we offer on our products we have backed up and we did not leave people stranded like many OzBargainers originally thought.

          Plus we accept payment through PayPal and you can be sure if we were intending on not providing good service to our customers we would not accept payments this way.

          The choice is up to you, but we are trying to operate a reliable and honest business.

  • +2

    ahhh. Roboguy. where have you been

  • +1

    Woah he's back!

  • +3

    If you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask.

    Just one - how are you still allowed on this site?

    For the unaware: https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/306334

    • We had our bad start, and yes we made many mistakes, but in the end every customer who did not get their order received a refund and the other customers received their orders and have been quite happy with our aftersales support, for those few who have had warranty issues. You can read all of our reviews (good and bad) here: https://roboguy.com.au/testimonials/?SID=ef0bjp13qkr3sj0u2fh…

      Also we are not the only retailer who have had long delivery delays, Gearbest, Banggood and GeekBuying have all been known to keep customers waiting in excess of 2 months for goods to arrive and their aftersales service is next to nothing. By no means are we trying to justify what happened or the scale on which it happened but we think it is important to point out that we are not the only ones to make their customers wait.

      We do hope however that this will never happen again and we can provide fast quick deliveries now and on into the future.

    Welcome back robuguy. It’s great to see you again, again.

  • +5

    Never again

  • Can I pick the order from your warehouse/store?

    • Unfortunately, at the current point we do not have a store or warehouse from which you would be able to pickup your order from, but we do offer fast free delivery.

    I fail to see the bargain? Xiaomi Fimi A3 Drone was $400 now $399, Xiaomi Mi Rabbit RC Drone was $89 now $90. Big ol $1 savings

    • +1

      On our website it might not seem to be a big bargain, but compare it to the following prices, and the below prices may not even include GST so potentially even more savings:

      Fimi X8SE: Our Price $689 (including GST and shipping)

      Gearbest: $756.11
      Banggood: $722.05
      Geekbuying: $719.49

      Fimi A3: Our Price $399 (including GST and shipping)

      Gearbest $428.39
      Banggood $426.06
      Geekbuying $431.69

      Mi Rabbit Drone: Our Price $89 (including GST and shipping)

      Gearbest $94.77
      Banggood $93.31
      Geekbuying $94.96

      Plus the original prices on our website were actually lower than they should have been but under Australian Law it is not right to increase the prices to what they should have been if we are only going to drop them back down again for a sale as this would appear as though we were just trying to artificially increase the discount percentage.

    After partially reading the threads for the previous ‘deal’…. run, run away now, run away as fast and you can and don’t look back

  • No thanks
    This guy should be banned
    His piss poor handling of the xiaomi vacuum shows his true colours

    Don’t trust him

  • +3

    I've made several purchases from Roboguy, including the original Xaiomi Vacuum cleaner - Which I DID receive after a lengthy wait.

    I then purchased another vacuum for my shop, both haven't missed a beat since purchase.

    Give the guy a break.

    • That's down to Xiaomi's product design and QC right? Roboguy's just the middleman here, albeit a questionable one.

      • Agreed - My Xaiomi product ownership challenges that of most other items in my house… And I hope to add a scooter in the near future.

        Having said that, I was actually impressed after speaking with Roboguy during the whole delayed delivery debacle, after traveling to China himself, sharing the pics etc. as to how committed he was to actually follow through with his original commitment to his customers.

        I was also impressed with his ability to handle/respond to the dozens of negative posts/flames etc. and still live up to his commitment and actually deliver the products that his customers (me included!) had paid good money for.

        He called me personally and asked if I wanted to cancel my order or wait a little longer for the unavoidable delivery delay.

        I chose to wait - Glad I did.

        • Did he underestimate the delivery time - Definitely
        • Did he dig deeper and deeper by overpromising - For sure
        • Did he make unfounded assurances to angry customers - Probably

        • Did he give up - Nope

        • Did he travel to China, at his own cost, to chase up the missing shipment - Yes he did
        • Did he personally contact customers to ensure they were ok waiting - He did with me!

        And most importantly, did he deliver in the end - YES HE DID !

        I've backed so many failed Kickstarter products over the years I genuinely thought that this was going to fail as well.

        It didn't.

        I am NOT affiliated with Roboguy in any way - But I AM a return customer.

        Do I want a Drone - No I don't…

        • Agree with you. Bought the initial robo vacuum deal from him. Had to wait a long time for delivery but it came. Was I in a rush to receive it? No So all good in the end.

          Every new business has teething issues. At least he's giving it a go.

        • +1

          Online Stockholm syndrome.

  • Prob hard to gain trust again here.
    How come your address is in the middle of nowhere? So people cant really go track you down?

    Did you hire a warehouse 2000km away from the citycentre coz its rent free?

    • You do realise many online stores do this? Some are reputable and never missed a beat on their delivery.

  • +3

    I bought a FIMI X8 - Don't let me down bro

    • Let us know how it goes, i mean the drone, i'm really keen to get one .

    • Hello There,

      We have not received any order information on our end, have you placed the order yet or are you still deciding?

      If you have placed an order already than please send your order confirmation details to [email protected]

      If you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask.

      Kindest Regards,
      The RoboGuy Team

    Was such a stressful few weeks, calling paypal every day to try and get the order cancelled after roboguy stopped responding to anyone, but not having any luck due to roboguy actively stringing paypal along with incorrect tracking information, trying as hard as possible to stop us from cancelling the orders as the months ticked by without his meeting obligations. In the end the order was only cancelled due to paypal forcing him to. Should be a lifetime ban from ozbargain.

  • Has anyone ordered and received the Fimi X8 from RoboGuy? I'm keen and I see it's even cheaper on the RoboGuy website now. I can see there has been some historical issues but I am open minded if these have been ironed out.
