JJRC H345 pocket drone review: Pay 1 and get 2
Until recently, remote controlled drones were expensive toys. Now, JJRC H345 offers not one but two drones for the same friendly price. When I say "friendly" I mean less than $30!
JJRC includes in the H345 package, a white drone called JJI and a black one called JJII. Before you get too enthusiastic thinking that you can play in the...
AKK X2 review: Super mini VTX with up to 800mW
Since the first FPV drones, VTXs evolved a lot. They became smaller and more powerful. In addition to the compact size and up to 800mW broadcast power, the AKK X2 comes with Smart Audio. This means that you can configure the AKK X2 remotely via your transmitter.
Currently, there are two approaches supported by BetaFlight OSD to control the VTX,...
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...

Anker 757 (SOLIX F1200) review
I never thought I would need a power station until I reviewed the Anker 757. After a few days of testing, it proved to be a device with multiple applications. From bringing the conform to your home, in the middle of the forest, to surviving blackouts. I love that I can power my drone batteries, FPV goggles, and controllers...

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...
Cheerson CX-10WD mini quad in-depth review
This new Pokémon GO craziness, as I saw in a YouTube video, ends it up with some dude trying to hunt them using a mini quadcopter just like this Cheerson CX-10WD. Frankly, I don't know how he came up with this stupid idea. He probably opted for this CX10WD because it looks pretty cool and it has many reviews.
The CX-10WD...

Yesterday, one of my friends suggested that it would be more helpful for my readers to write some drone-buying guides than to...
