To be honest I was a bit clickbait saying that this XLURC L106 Pro is a Mavic Air 2 alternative. Excepting a similar folding design, it is far behind DJI's drone in almost every aspect. While the Air 2 has a range of 10Km, the XLURC L106 Pro less than 1Km. Flight time is also 5 minutes shorter. But,...

I published my first Tattu battery review in October 2017. Since then, I have had the opportunity to test more of their products. This time we will have a closer look at 3 of their packs, a GensTattu 4S/2300mAh 45C, FunFly 3S/1300mAh 100C, and an R-Line 4S/850mAh 95C one. Tattu LIPOs are very popular among FPV pilots due to their...

The M1 PRO features a similar camera to the popular F11 4K Pro drone. It also has 2-axis stabilization, PTZ control, and 5GHz WIFI real-time image transmission. Thanks to the triple positioning system, it is very stable in any environment. The Optical Flow positioning and Air Pressure sensor allows stable hovering indoors, and the GPS positioning outdoor. The dual flight...

The Eachine VR004 FPV goggles feature a modular design that allows easy conversion from a 4.3" FPV monitor into a veritable FPV headset. Fully assembled measures about 155x96x128mm and weighs 350 grams. IMHO, due to its small size, it will be difficult to be used with eyeglasses. Thanks to the built-in 1300mAh Polymer battery, it can be used for up...

For less than $100, the SMRC M21 drone follows almost in all aspects the design of the popular MINI 2 drone. Of course for its price tag, we can't expect DJI-grade top-notch features. Also, the M21 comes with cheap low-lifespan brushless motors, instead of reliable brushed ones. It measures 15x10x7cm with folded arms, and 35x32x7cm unfolded read to fly. With...

HOMFPV's latest 2-inch CineWhoop style FPV drone is advertised by a super cute Asian model. Due to its nice pink color, the HOMFPV Unicorn will be probably adored mainly by female pilots. HOMFPV opted to equip their 90mm size Unicorn drone with the Caddx Nebula V2 FPV camera and Caddx Vista HD digital VTX. This setup is natively compatible with...

ZLL, ex ZLRC bring on the market a new GPS enabled drone called SG908 KUN. Similar to the Beast series it features brushless motors and excellent battery life. Apart from the more Mavic like design and lack of laser collision avoidance system, the ZLL SG908 inherits most of the features of the SG906 MAX. Even its battery and range...

I hope this year will be better for everyone and the COVID-19 pandemic will end soon. 2021 starts on First Quadcopter with the Ovonic battery review. We will have a closer look at two of their green 1300 mAh 100C LIPO packs (4S and 6S). Testing LIPO...
