Foxeer Legend 3 review: 4K FPV at decent price
While many drone camera manufacturers moved to cubic shape, Foxeer Legend 3 sees the return of the candybar form factor that Mobius debuted a few years ago. Don't be afraid, the old design is paired with UHD 4K video recording, which is a must-have in 2017.
When it comes to racing quad-copters, it is very hard to find a proper...
RunCam Split revolutionary FPV camera
Many say that the modular design of the RunCam Split camera is "revolutionary" or "game changer" but, in my opinion, actually it was born from the patent issue of the RC3 (claimed by GoPro). Practically they splitted the camera into 3 parts (lens module, DVR and WiFi module). Frankly I don't know why they didn't included also a 5.8G...

FrSky Taranis Q X7 transmitter review
Last week I reviewed two FrSky receivers and now it's time to review the Taranis Q X7 transmitter - which is the latest and cheapest TX from FrSky.
When it comes to remote-controlled gadgets, FrSky is a very popular radio system among RC fanatics. They are future-packed, reliable, and now also affordable. When I saw the price of the Horus X12S...
FrSky receivers with PPM, CPPM and SBUS: XSR and D8

For those who are new in the field, let me say a few words about radio receivers. Their main function is to interlink wirelessly the flight controller with the transmitter...

RunCam 3 HD FPV quadcopter camera
RunCam 3 - worth to buy alternative for the GoPro Session 5?
When the RunCam 3 was rumored I had a mixed filing regarding this camera. I don't know if it was a smart movement from the manufacturer to announce in 2017 a camera without 4K capability.
I contacted RC to request a free sample in order to review the RunCam 3 camera. Frankly they...

Foxeer Box 4k Superview quadcopter camera
Foxeer Box 4k camera with GoPro Session design
Although I find the "Mobius" design much proper for quadcopters, it seems that all major drone camera manufacturers move to cubic design. Like GoPro Hero, this new Foxeer Box 4k comes with the same compact cubic shape (40 x 40 x 40mm).
Compared to its predecessor (Legend 1), the Foxeer Box 4k camera offers much higher...
