HOBBYMATE 5″ COMET VX220 review: Best FPV drone under 200?
Few months ago I was contacted by Kevin from HobbyMate in order to provide some information regarding the best configuration for their upcoming 5" Comet FPV drone. I gladly sent them my suggestions regarding the frame type and other essential parts. The COMET VX220's idea is to deliver a lighter and most powerful racing quad possible in under $200 price range.

GoPro Hero 7 Black review: Oldies but still Goldie
While everyone expects to read about the GoPro 8 which is near to be released in October 2019, I thought that it is the best time to make an in-depth GoPro Hero 7 Black review. Why now? Because the new model will definitively drop the series 7's price, making it more attractive than ever.
With 4K@60fps video recording, HDR, and...

FlyFish-RC Volador VD5 review: Frame kit for O3 Air Unit
Our FlyFish-RC Volador VD5 review covers building instructions, user experience, and flight performance. With the release of the new DJI Air Unit O3, FPV hobbyists started to look for compatible frames. FlyFish-RC has four suitable frames, two 5" (True-X and Dead Cat) and two 6" (True-X and Dead Cat). I opted for the deadcat-style configuration because there are no...
VIFLY ShortSaver V2: The Smart Smoke Stopper for FPV builders
When I connect the battery for the first time to a newly built FPV drone, I wait with bated breath to see if everything is OK and no smoke comes out. Short circuits due to wrong wiring and bad soldering are the most common problems in DIY drones, and they cause serious damage to sensitive electronics. VIFLY ShortSaver V2...
SUNLU 3D Printer Enclosure: An absolutely essential accessory!
3D printers are like dust magnets; if you don't cover them with something in a few days, they will be covered by a fine layer of particles. Moving parts are greased with vaseline, from which the dirt is difficult to remove. The SUNLU 3D Printer Enclosure offers excellent protection against dust and water and provides the constant temperature required...
GTENG T908W review: Wannabee DIY drone
GTENG T908W it is advertised as to be a DIY quadcopter but, if you ask me, it is more like a modular drone. You don't need to solder or something like this, just put together the main parts and you are ready to fly.
In my opinion, the fact that a drone can be easily split into parts should not...

Eachine E61HW review: Cheap mini drone with camera
A great way to get kids interested in drones is giving them a cheap mini drone like the Eachine E61HW. As crashes are inevitable, starting with an expensive model is not a good idea. It would be at least disappointing seeing a 1000$ quadcopter hitting a wall after only few minutes of flight. Also, larger drones may be dangerous in...
