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.

Bonka 6S 6000mAh review: Long-range FPV with no compromise!
While many experts recommend using LIION packs for long-range flights due to their high energy density, after testing several packs, I found out that they lack performance, featuring only a 10-30C discharge rate. Instead, the Bonka 6S 6000mAh LiPO has 120C discharging, providing enough power for the most challenging flight movements.
Bonka's U2 FPV series includes capacities from 300 to...

I’ve been testing the ISDT BattAir LIPO for 3 weeks -here’s the pros and cons
Last month, I won two pairs of their BattAir smart LIPO batteries on ISDT's giveaway. As they are known more for their hobby chargers, I expected to receive their newest K2 Air or Air 8 inteligent charger.
Unlike DJI batteries, FPV batteries are dummies and do not have any smart features; there are just a bunch of LIPO cells connected...
