Review: GoPro 12 Creator Edition (Not Sponsored!)

GoPro 12
I purchased my first GoPro in 2021 and still own this action camera. I used it on vacations and during sports activities and installed it on my FPV drones. As the latest GoPro Hero 12  Black significantly improved, I thought it was time to upgrade and retire my three-year-old GoPro 10. This year’s big advancement is its superior battery...

CADDXFPV GoFilm 20 review: Sub 250g 4K Walksnail CineWhoop

CaddxFPV GoFilm 20
CADDXFPV's first FPV drone, the GoFilm 20, adopts a CineWhoop-style design with a 360-degree blade protector and onboard Walksnail Moonlight FPV system. It is intended for both beginners and experienced FPV pilots alike. With a wheelbase of just 94mm, it is suitable for indoors and flying outside through tight spaces. I remember my first flight using FPV Goggles and how...

BLUETTI AC200L review: My fifth Power Station – and the Biggest one!

Bluetti AC200L
Portable power stations like the BLUETTI AC200L are the successor of noisy and heavy gas generators, and they enable off-grid living and working by providing DC and AC. With a massive output of 2400W, the AC200L can handle 99% of commonly used devices in your home or outdoors. I built a 3x4 meters tree house two years ago, 100 meters...

Potensic ATOM: A sub250g, sophisticated 4K drone

Potensic ATOM
When Potensic launched the Atom drone in September 2023, I was excited that yet another company realized how important the sub-250g market segment is for hobbyists and casual users to enjoy drone flying without bureaucratic hurdles. In many countries, drones that weigh under 250 grams (0.55lb) are exempted from aircraft registration and the need for a pilot license. In this...

ELEGOO Neptune 4 Max: Speedy XXL 3D printer

Elegoo Neptune 4 Max 3D printer
The ELEGOO Neptune 4 Max is the largest 3D printer that I reviewed. With a massive 420*420*480mm build volume, you can print big models at once without the need to glue multiple parts together. The Klipper firmware will also be a first for me. Klipper is an advanced open-source 3D printer software developed by KevinOConnor that allows you to...

Autel EVO Lite+ review: Mighty drone, Big picture

Autel EVO Lite Plus
Due to the weight regulation, everyone started to look for 250-gram class drones, but based on my experience, they have a massive problem with flight performance in windy conditions. Instead, from my first flight with the Autel EVO Lite+, I felt its mighty power. Also, featuring a big one-inch sensor, the FOV and quality of the footage is changed. Autel Robotics...

Autel EVO Nano Plus – The Ultimate drone under 250g

Autel EVO Nano+
Autel Robotics has officially revealed their long-awaited EVO Nano series at CES 2022, promising outstanding video capabilities in less than 250 grams (0.55lbs). That number is its selling point because anything under it doesn’t require FAA registration (if you are in the US). There is also a different, more permissive, flight zone regulation for this weight class. FirstQuadcopter is...

ZHIYUN Crane M3 review: All-rounder vlogging gimbal

ZHIYUN CRANE M3
When I read for the first time about the ZHIYUN Crane M3, I decided that this is the gimbal I need. In the last two years, I reviewed about 10 gimbals but none completely fulfilled my needs. For vlogging, you need a stabilizer that is compact, lightweight, can be operated by one hand, and is compatible with a wide...
