First Quadcopter

Featuring skinny carbon fiber frame, the BoldClash Bwhoop B05 is one of the lightest brushless FPV quadcopter. It weights only 32g including propeller protector, flight battery and FPV camera. The BoldClash Bwhoop B05 drone is equipped with 703 15000KV brush-less motors, BoldClash Fish 4A 4 in 1 ESC and SP Racing F3 flight controller. TinyFish FC comes with integrated FrSky SBUS radio receiver...

A few weeks ago I already introduced the KaiDeng K130 Alpha drone in the news section, and now it is time for an in-depth review with pros and cons. Frankly, at first look I do not understand the meaning of the EGG design because it is not aerodynamically shaped. This EGG drone was announced by Kai Deng in two variants. While...

Frankly, I got bored from this "Selfie drone" madness, there is no week without a new model. Like this BAYANGTOYS X20, all want to pose as the perfect personal flying camera. The truths is that without spending few hundred of dollars you can't expect a truly selfie drone. Additional to the usual features (Alt-Hold and Headless flight mode), the X20 foldable quadcopter...

In the past, mini drones were nice but with no fancy features. Now, the Cheerson CX-OF, with an optical-flow sensor and intelligent flight modes, changes the rules. Of course, besides all these, it's equipped with a WiFi FPV camera, which allows you to enjoy first-person view flying using your smartphone. The CX-OF is a great successor of Cheerson Hobby's CX-10 Nano...

It looks that cloning popular drones becomes a general rule. Even clones are cloned :D. The TKKJ TK111W seems to be a cheap copy of the VISUO XS809HW. Both quad-copters adopt similar folding mechanism and features. Yesterday, one of my friends asked me "how can drones keep stable their flight altitude". Toy grade drones use barometric air-pressure sensor to determinate their relative...

T18D is a new HD drone that was recently announced by Chinese manufacturer Flytec Technology. The Flytec T18D quad-copter will be available in four colors: blue, red, yellow, green. Here are our first thoughts. Pricing is important: Flytec T18D offers for only $55 all the latest possible features (headless mode, alt-hold and WiFi FPV). Thanks to the integrated air-pressure sensor, the drone is...

Equipped with a GPS positioning system, the FEILUN FX176C1 is the first drone under 100 bugs with truly intelligent flight modes like Follow me and Waypoint Mission. At first look, the weak point of this cheap GPS drone is the brushed motors. They have a much shorter life span compared to brushless ones. In my opinion, to extend the life...

No rest for Eachine! They just announced another selfie drone with even more innovative design. Featuring unique fold-able arms, the Eachine E53 can be packed as small as 5.8 x 6.5 x 14.5 cm. They could promote it as "Drone in a can" :) Like many other similar "selfie" drones, the E53 has multiple control options. U can use the...

Following the success of the JJRC's Elfie, lately the drone market has been invaded by many similar "selfie" quad-copters like this DHD D5. Like the original, the DHD D5 adopts the same fold-able design with two frontal LED lights. Camera is also 0.3MP (480p video resolution) with WiFi real-time image transmission. Frankly, excepting the top logo there are not too...

Today we take a look at another mini racing quadcopter by Awesome. It seems the manufacturer has found another of its core-niches besides drone frames and propellers - the brushless micro racer market. The AWESOME MINI F100 is build on a 100mm carbon fiber frame and adopts the versatile Omnibus F3 flight controller with built-in OSD. On top of the frame...
