First Quadcopter

At a $50 base price, the XiangYu XY017HW offers many popular features and some extras. Compared to other cheap toy drones, the XY017HW brings more enjoyable 720P WiFi real-time image transmission. The drone's camera also provides a much wider field of view (FOV) than most of its competitors. When it comes to newbies, I find it useless to invest more...

JJRC's deluxe department, called JJPRO, announced recently their first entry level brushless GPS drone. With a price tag of $150, seems like the JJRC X3 HAX will be a bestseller this Christmas. Brush-less motors against brushed ones offers more trust as failure ratio is less possible. They also provide more lifting power and accurate control. Thanks to the GPS positioning system,...

This week, besides the Redpawz R011, I received a couple of other drones for review, from basic toy drones to professional racing quadcopters.

After I watched FinalGlideAus amazing freestyle flight video with the Vortex 230 Mojo drone, I could'n resist to write about it. ImmersionRC claims that, in order to test their new coating protection of the electronic parts, he flew through whale-spit. In my opinion probably was only a coincidence but, still an extraordinary footage. Additional to the FatShark Gen3 600TVL FPV camera, using the optional TPU camera...

After the flying egg, here is the first flying cube. In the folded position, you would not think that the FQ777 FQ26 is capable of flying. It looks like a cube with four fans. Can be easily confused with an electronic alarm clock or something like that :D FUQI Models announced this "Miracle" drone in two variants. While the FQ26-TX...

It's only October of 2017, but many drone brands started to announce their new models for 2018. Diatone's GT-R90 is a micro sized FPV drone equipped with powerful brushless motors and topnotch FPV system. Instead of an all-in-one approach, Diatone opted for a tower design with 3 layers (flight controller, ESC and VTX). Built around the versatile F4 flight controller, the Diatone 2018...
