First Quadcopter

A few weeks ago I was asked by one of my partners whether I'm interested to review the Hubsan H501S X4 quadcopter. Although I really liked the eye-catching design I refused him and I opted for another model. In my opinion, designing a micro brushless quadcopter with a GPS positioning system is a great idea. I think that through this...

My biggest curiosity at the time I knew that I would receive this XinLin X181 quadcopter for review, was what could it mean that it is equipped with "similar brushless motors".  As I know, currently there are two kinds of electric motors used on multi-rotors: brushed and brushless ones. While the only advantage of brushed (DC) motors is that they are cheap, the...

Eachine Goggles One - Cheap HD FPV glasses Compared to its predecessor, this new Eachine Goggles Ones glasses is a more versatile FPV model. With built-in 5.8G 40CH receiver it can be paired easily with many racing quadcopters. Unlike the Eachine VR-007 goggles which had a low resolution display, this new model comes with a quality display. Frankly, the only thing that stopped me from...

Share your best moments with your favorite quadcopter A few months ago, I created a special " Testimonials " section to allow my readers to share their stories. Unfortunately, it didn't have the success I expected, so I thought that time has come to give it a small push through this post. I would like to receive stories about how you got into...

Yes, I know!  How can it be interesting anymore to review the Yuneec Q500 4k, which is a one-year-old model, when the new Phantom 4 has been just revealed? First of all, this Typhoon Q500 4k is a stable platform that was already tested by many customers and its firmware was improved over time. Don't mention that Yuneec probably has the...

Yesterday, when I received the Cheerson CX-10W for review and I saw the size of the package, I knew it would be my shortest review and useless to make an unboxing video :) The CX-10W is the 3rd generation of the Cheerson Hobby mini quadcopter series. The first model of this series, the CX10, was revealed about two years ago....

Longing LY-250 Dark knight high speed FPV racer Surely, racing quadcopters are in fashion because almost every week are announced new models like this Longing LY-250 Dark Night. In order to allow first-person view flights, this LY-250 racer quad is equipped with an 120° camera and a long range 5.8G 600mW video transmission module. Unlike other basic models, this new racing quadcopter will...

Frankly, I never heard about the "FEILUN" drone manufacturer, but I'm glad to have come recently across their FX127 Chaser racing quadcopter. Like many new racers, this FEILUN FX127 is also based on the popular CC3D flight controller. In the front part of the aircraft, there is an 800TVL camera, which is pretty well protected by the removable canopy. The camera's live...

XK X100 Dexterity - Affordable acrobatic quad The XK Industries quadcopter manufacturer just revealed their first cheap model, the X100 with inverted flight mode. Apparently, this new XK X100 is a nice intermediate quad suitable for those who are already familiarized with the basic flight movements. In order to have a precise control over the aircraft, thanks to FHSS-compatible receiver, the X100 can be...

DJI Phantom 4 - Best quadcopter of the year 2016? After the popular Phantom 3 series, DJI finally released the latest Phantom 4 quadcopter. The Phantom 4 hysteria started about two months earlier than the official release day announcement. Frank Wang, the founder and CEO of Dajiang Innovation Technology (aka DJI), affirmed that the PH4 is "The sexiest drone that DJI ever designed" and hi...
