First Quadcopter

Permeants ASUAV RS220 racing quadcopter with FPV camera As we are in late winter, it is time to switch from indoor drones to outdoor FPV racing drones like this Awesome ASUAV RS220. When it comes to first-time pilots, speed is not everything, they need durable drones. Based on my experience, carbon-fiber frames has better chance to survive nasty crashes than nylon ones. Thanks...

Eachine Q90 drone with F3 flight controller and 1000TVL FPV camera After the invasion of ducted drones, Eachine returned to the classic propeller protectors. The Eachine FlyingFrog Q90 adopts a nice frog alike design. According to your existing transmitter, you can opt between 3 RX/TX protocols (FrSky, Flysky or DSM2). The RX module is advertised with small size, so it is not integrated...

At the time I started my journey in the world of quadcopters I didn't have thought about the utility of such a device as this tablet harness. Later, when I evolved to FPV quadcopters and more intelligent drones, it became clear that I needed something to hang my FPV LCD or Tablet (ground station) on my chest. Mounting my Samsung...

Yuneec Tornad o H920 Plus drone for unmatched aerial filming After the HT520, Yuneec announced a more professional hexa-copter called Tornado H920 Plus. This new drone is suitable for industrial applications and professional aerial filming. In order to allow easy transportation, the Yuneec H920 Plus features foldable arms. The landing gears are retractable, which is a must have for professional aerial videos. The...

As I said in one of my recent reviews, during cold winter days, I prefer smaller FPV drones like this Eachine QX70. Adopting ducted propellers, they are totally "harmless" for indoor practice. Even my curios cat is safe with them :) This "ducted" madness started with the Tiny Whoop, whose biggest downside was the high price. Later, manufacturers like Eachine...

Cheerson CX-95S & CX-95W, micro FPV quadcopters with ducted propellers Honestly I like the idea that Cheerson's new micro FPV series comes in parts and you have to assemble it. While the Cheerson CX-95S comes with F3 flight controller and DSM receiver (no TX included), the cheaper Cheerson CX-95W comes with their own flight controller and a toyish remote controller. Definitely, if I would request to review one of these two drones, I will...

Syma X19W quadcopter car for double fun After the success of the X9, Syma came up with a new 2in1 car-drone concept called X19W. Compared to its predecessor, the Syma X19W has a much nicer design and it comes with all the latest features like altitude hold and headless flight mode. Without any conversion, this car-drone can fly like any other multi-rotor...

Lately, due to unfavorable weather for outdoor flights, I started to play indoors with my micro FPV drones. Luckily, this month, I got another three models for review, including this Eachine Fatbee FB90. Honestly, among all the micro FPV quads, FB90 has a much more friendly design. Unlike most of the mini brushed FPV drones which are powered by 1s batteries, the Fatbee...

Jumper X73S aka Eachine X73S Probably, this X73S is currently the smallest brushless FPV quadcopter. Actually it is smaller then most of the similar brushed models. Anyway, even if is so small I recommend it only for outdoor flights. Brushless motors are much powerful than brushed ones. Like many racing drones, this X73S is also based on the versatile Naze 32 flight controller. This...

During winter days, when outside is -15ºC, you can't find the mood to play outdoors with your favorite racing drone. Luckily, micro brushed quads like this HobbyMate Q100 are great for replacing outdoor fun with an indoor one. The advantage of this model over dirty cheap toy drones is the versatile and programmable flight controller. After I reviewed many RTF packages, I liked the idea that the...
