FIMI X8SE 2022 Review – The ultimate adventure drone

Fimi X8SE 2022 drone
The new Xiaomi FIMI X8SE 2022 is not a game-changer drone but still comes with significant improvements over its predecessors. It has a better camera with a bigger image sensor, upgraded transmission technology and an optimized propulsion system. One area where FIMI is still behind DJI, however, is the lack of an obstacle avoidance sensor. In 2022, probably all...

Insta360 GO review: A tiny camera in the word of drones

Insta360 GO camera review
The Insta360 GO is a twenty-gram steady camera which you can love or hate from the first usage. Maybe you could feel restrained by its limited features but, if you learn how to use it, it will be a great companion for lots of activities. Doing some research about Insta360’s product range and who they are, I found out the...

They don’t just offer a wide range of Air 2 accessories but are between the few...

Z1-Evolution 3-Axis Gimbal review

Zhiyun Z1-Evo review
I know this Zhiyun Z1-Evolution is not a 100% drone-related gadget, but if you want to make product reviews, you will need such a device. Usually, I record my maiden flights with a smartphone or with a head-mounted action camera. I always wanted a professional alternative but didn't have the time to analyze the possibilities. For example, it is...

BetaFPV 1506 3000KV motor review: Perfect for CineWhoops

BetaFPV 1506 3000KV motors
A few months ago, I tested the BetaFPV Pavo 30, a very capable CineWhoop. Unfortunately, I needed to replace the flight controller and two of the motors due to an accident. While the stock motors were 3400KV, I found as a replacement only these BetaFPV 1506 3000KV ones. Brushless motors in the drone world are marked with a 4- digit...

Cheerson CX-10C: A tiny drone with onboard camera

Cheerson CX10C review
Ten years ago, playing with such a small multi-rotor like this Cheerson CX-10C seemed unimaginable. Now, we can purchase nano and micro quadcopters for $10-$20. These small remote-controlled toys became popular quickly because they are extremely affordable, portable, and easy to fly. When I purchased my first nano quadcopter, one of my colleagues asked me "OK, that is so small but...

HGLRC Sector132 review: 2 in 1 FPV drone

HGLRC Sector132 review
In my in-depth HGLRC Sector132 review I will reveal to you all the advantages and drawbacks of this hybrid Cinema-Freestyle FPV drone. Maybe it’s not the cheapest, fastest or smallest, but it’s probably the most flexible FPV platform. It features removable blade protectors which allows easy conversion from a CineWhoop into a veritable Freestyle drone, 3/4S battery compatibility, and...

Skystars Koko 2207 1950Kv: Racing and freestyle FPV motor for 5″ drones

SkyStars KOKO 2207 1950KV motors
I received these Koko 2207 motors and a SKYSTARS F722HD flight stack two years ago, but somehow I forgot to review them. The motors have 16x16mm and can be installed on most 5-5.5" FPV frames, regardless of design and type. The Skystars Koko 2207 motors have four KV options (1750KV, 1950KV, 2550KV, and 2750KV) and are suitable for racing and...

Yuneec Q500 4k: Big drone with outstanding performance

Yuneec Q500 4K review
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...
