Walkera VITUS with 3-axis gimbal and 4K camera
Walkera VITUS, a serious competitor of the DJI Mavic Pro
Walkera, one of the biggest player on the drone market, recently announced their new model with MR (Mixed Realty) called "Vitus".
The Walkera Vitus will be available in two variants, a "Deluxe" and a "Lite" edition. While both models come with 3-axis gimbal and 4k camera, only the VITUS Pro features obstacle...
Realacc Scops 100 Y4 FPV racing drone
This week, Realacc (subdivision of Eachine brand) announced their second micro FPV brushless quad with an even more interesting design. At first look, the Realacc Scops 100 seems to be a tri-copter but, considering that the two rear motors are one over another, it is a classical quad-copter with Y4 design.
Measuring only 120 x 120mm x 65mm you might think that the Scops 100...
Realacc Horns 3D FPV Racing Quad
In order to allow fully immersed flight experience, the Realacc Horns 100 quadcopter is equipped not with just one but two cameras. For me personally, being fully immersed (using FPV goggles) makes me feel a bit uncomfortable and I would rather prefer a FPV monitor giving me the ability to switch quickly between LoS (line of sight) and drone view.
Each 600TVL camera has its own 5.8G VTX module allowing to individually set the desired broadcast...
Eachine E70 Mini cheap drone under $25
As you can see in the image below, the Eachine E70 Mini comes with a nice attractive design. In my opinion, compared to other Eachine mini drones, this one looks much better.
Thanks to its small size (13.5 x 13.5 x 40mm) and the propeller protectors, the Eachine E70 Mini quadcopter is suitable for outdoor as well as for indoor flights.
The Hubsan alike...
Eachine E708 Cyclone best choice for beginners
Although Eachine advertises the E708 Cyclone as being the best choice for beginners, I think that one important ingredient is missing for that, the altitude-hold feature.
Probably some will be disappointed to find out that the Eachine E708 Cyclone quadcopter comes without a camera. But honestly, at this price tag you can't expect usable image quality.
Being powered by a 550 mAh Li-Po, the advertised flight duration of...
Cheerson CX-23 cheap brushless GPS quad
Following the success of the CX-20 and CX-22, Cheerson announced a newer model called CX-23 with even nicer design and a fine pack of features. The Cheerson CX-23 drone comes with generous 14 minutes flight time and up to 500 meters control and FPV range.
Based on my good experience with Cheerson drones, I'm thinking to order this CX-23 for review. I'm curious to...
Cheerson CX-70 Bat wearable wrist drone
Flexible drones are here! Cheerson Hobby recently announced their CX-70 Bat toy drone that is entirely wrist wearable. Even the remote controller can be attached to your wrist. This new concept will be definitely loved by kids.
The Cheerson CX-70 quadcopter adopts a modular design. Instead of 4 arms it has only two, each one holds two motors. The arms are...
MJX Bugs 9 dirt cheap brushless quadcopter
Lately, MJX R/C seems to have moved from brushed drones to brushless ones. The MJX Bugs 9 is equipped with 1800KV brushless motors, which are not just more reliable than brushed ones but also more accurate.
In my opinion, this new model has a much nicer design compared to its bigger brother, the MJX Bugs 3. Unfortunely, being smaller probably will not have the same lifting...
Eachine E52 sElfie drone with HD camera
Following the success of the E50, Eachine recently announced an "upgraded" model called E52 sElfie. Even If I don't see too much improvements, the manufacturer claims that this new foldable quadcopter is enhanced in all way (battery, camera, design). The Eachine E52 was announced in two colors (frosted red and green).
The Eachine E52 follows the nice foldable design of its predecessor but somehow featuring a more...
Aomway HD588 Full HD FPV monitor with DVR
Although the Aomway HD588 was announced about 1 year ago, it is still one of the most versatile FPV monitor that you can buy for its price. Generous 10" LCD display, built-in 40CH diversity and integrated DVR with playback are the features that recommend this monitor.
The HD588 5.8G FPV comes with HDMI input which allows to be used together with DJI's...
Mini drones with camera: Top 5 that you can buy in 2017
I know, why should we talk about mini drones when summer is almost here and we can go out and play with our bigger birds?
First off all, every beginner should start his journey with a mini drone. Investing a fortune into a quadcopter that will probably end up crashing is worthless.
Secondly, you can find mini drones with excellent flight...
