SUNLU S2 Filament Dryer: Moistureless 360° Surround Heating
Many 3D printing filaments are hygroscopic, which means they readily absorb moisture from the environment when they are removed from the original package. Moisture can turn into steam in the hot end, leading to issues like poor layer adhesion, bubbling, or even clogging of the nozzle. Using a filament dryer box such as the SUNLU S2 is essential to...
SUNLU Filament Connector: Do you truly need something like this?
SUNLU's new 3D printing accessory, the FC01 Filament Connector, can join various 3D materials (PLA, ABS, PETG, PCL, PA, and PC). But why do you need such a tool? Let's find out from this review!
If you are into 3D printing, you probably know how hard it is to throw away a spool with a few meters of leftover filament....
Tattu R-line battery review: 95C, more punch for your drone
Frankly, being my first Li-Po review, I didn't know how to start it. I took the Tattu R-line 4s 1300 mAh battery in my hand several times hoping for inspiration. Nothing, it was like holding a banal brick. Then, I realized that without the Li-Po technology drones could have not evolved this fast. The biggest advantage of lithium polymer...
Sunlu FilaDryer S4 review
I started using 3D printers about three years ago, and what I learned first is that dry filament is essential to obtaining quality prints. As its name suggests, the Sunlu FilaDryer S4 allows simultaneous dehydration of four spools, making it unique in its market segment.
I just counted and found more than ten opened filament spools at home. Even if...

After the FX2-Dominator review, we are back with another AKK FPV transmitter review. Contrary to its much more powerful brother, the AKK Race VTX is suitable for low-profile racing drones, where space is critical. In addition to the ultra-thin design, it has many cool features and a friendly price tag.
Speaking from my own experience, when it comes to building...

Artillery Hornet 3D printer review
These days, 3D printers are used in various applications, from education and prototyping to advanced things like bioprinting organs. In the drone hobby, many DIY enthusiasts started to print their spare parts and accessories for long time ago. Lately, Free Zillion, founder of RaceWhoop Facebook group, designed a ducted drone that is almost entirely 3D printed. The concept became...
Foxeer Foxwhoop 25: From frame kit to flying CineWhoop
The Foxwhoop25 is advertised with the 'Unbreakable drone' headline. Foxeer even promises a lifetime warranty for the protection guard. Some dude on YouTube did a car-crushing test. Being strong and slightly flexible at the same time passed the torture. Of course, this does not mean, that if you fly at full speed in a concrete wall nothing bad will...
VIFLY Beacon and Finder V2 drone buzzers
Vifly makes many useful FPV accessories, and self-powered buzzers are between ones you should keep permanently installed on your drone for safety. In this review, we will have a closer look at the ViFly wireless drone Beacon and ViFly FPV quadcopter Finder V2. Despite the fact that they look almost identical, they have different applications and functionalities.
Passive buzzers cost...
iFlight BLITZ F7 V1.1 flight controller: Is it good?
The flight controller (FC) is the brain of the FPV drone and is probably the most critical component, as it is responsible for stabilizing the drone. The FC generates the motors' control signals based on the pilot's and sensors' inputs. If you are starting with this hobby, I strongly recommend using BetaFlight-based flight controllers like this iFlight BLITZ F7...
