Although only few days ago VISUO ZEN K1 drone was revealed, there are a lot of questions around it: optical or digital 50x zoom?, it has real 4K camera?, how does it works the optical flow sensor?.
At first look, the ZEN K1 feels to be another best seller from TIANQU Visuo. In addition to the cool foldable design, dual-camera system and 4K camera, it has super long flight time. According to the rumored specs, the 11.1V/2500mAh battery provides up to 30 minutes airborne time. Furthermore, it is available in bundle with 1, 2 or 3 flight batteries.
Thanks to the powerful 1200KV brushless motors, it can achieve flight speeds of up to 60km/h.

Hello.
I have a problem with my Visuo Zen K1 drone. It doesn’t show wifi signal to connect it to my phone, for to show recording. Now it just flies and makes sounds (pi pi pi pi).
Will you help me solve the problem?
How do I reset it?
Thank you
Seem to have a problem somewhere. I go thru the setup, the drone starts up and runs but will not rev up and shuts down after half a minute. Please go thru the start sequence for me as the manual that came with it is vague.
Hello.
I have a problem with my drone, the camera does not connect to the phone. Do you know how to reset to factory settings, or suggest another way to fix it.
Model- VISUO ZEN K1
Thank you, have a good day
Hello
My english is not so good, but we will understand. I have drone visuo zen k1 pro and I have small problem.
Drone or remote control don”t want to connect with phone.
Something appeared to me about the frequency 2.4GHz and I think I changed something there and now I cant fix it.
Can you help me about this?
Thank you
The Zen K1 uses 5Ghz WIFI, so you will need a compatible phone
Great beginner drone. Ready to fly out of box. It was easy to fly/control with its built in GPS capabilities. My 10 year old son has an easier time flying this drone than the brushed mini drone I bought for him last year…
dude, still wait for your review on this drone. I want this Visuo Zen k1 under the Christmas tree :)
Unfortunately, FirstQuadcopter will not test & review this drone :(
Can you give the review link?
I want one! It has all the great stuff you can expect from a cheap drone
No any review? Also how many frames at 4k recording? Real quality and stable videos? Does the Control software is more ready good modes? Many many things? Do you have answers? No any review no any videos…
