Syma X8SW review: Best budget drone in 2016?
Through X8SW, it seems that Syma ends a good year with a good quadcopter. Although I was in the winter holiday rush, I was truly happy to be among the first ones to test and review the Syma X8SW.
Over the last years, I reviewed many Syma quadcopters, and I can say that their nice design is paired with excellent...
Walkera Rodeo 150 review with pros and cons
I always try to be short with my reviews, but when I have in my hand a nice quad like this Walkera Rodeo 150 I always go with the flow... As unusual, my goal is to discover (or at least try) all the strangeness and weaknesses of this drone.
Walkera, over time became a favorite drone brand among RC enthusiasts. Lately, their...
JJRC H37 Elfie quadcopter review
Usually, selfie drones like this JJRC H37 Elfie are very expensive gadgets. Although the design of the JJRC Elfie is very similar to the one ZeroTech Dobby has, they are from a completely different league. Is a bit exaggerated to categorize the H37 as a selfie quadcopter.
In 2016, most of the major drone manufactures, like Yuneec and DJI, announced...
Xiaomi Yi 2 camera in-depth review
Yesterday, out of curiosity I searched with Google for "Xiaomi Yi 2 review". The results were pretty impressive. I found plenty of professional articles about this camera. Most of the reviews have concluded that the Yi 4K is an excellent action camera with superior image quality. Even when the Xiaomi Yi 4K was put in a side-by-side comparison with the more expensive GoPro 5 Hero, it excelled.
Yi...
SYMA X5UW quadcopter review
In my opinion, the Syma X5 series is one of the most popular entry-level quadcopter families and I bet that this year the SYMA X5UW will be found under many Christmas trees. I think the nice candy red color will make it attractive even for girls :)
My quadcopter addiction started about three years ago when I purchased my first drone,...
Yuneec Typhoon quadcopter backpack review
Large quadcopters are beautiful in the high sky but become complicated when it comes to their transportation. Without a nice and comfortable quadcopter backpack like this Realacc, it is very difficult to carry the drone to the flight zone in the original box. Especially when you are on foot.
When I received the Yuneec Typhoon Q500 4K for review I was...
Eachine Tiny QX95 micro FPV drone review
After many brushless racing quadcopters, I thought that it would be nice to review a micro brushed quadcopter like this Eachine Tiny QX95. In my opinion, these little RC toys are not just cheaper but also somehow more practical than the powerful brushed quads. For example, this Eachine QX 95 weighs only 56g which makes it suitable for indoor flights. Bumping into...
Kaideng K80 Pantonma quadcopter review
Frankly, when I firstly watched the promo video of this Kaideng K80 Pantonma drone I was a bit skeptical regarding all its amazing features. The obstacle avoidance feature seemed to be less credible for such a cheap toy. To discover the real capabilities of this drone, I decided to test and review the KD K80 quadcopter by myself.
Compared to its predecessors (K70 Sky Warrior,...
Litchi APP for DJI Phantom, Mavic and Inspire drones
I heard for the first time about the Litchi APP 6 months ago when I reviewed the Phantom 3 Advanced quadcopter. At that time I wanted to learn how to pilot the quad through the DJI GO APP because I was reticent with third-party applications. Later, I read that APPs like Litchi enable some pretty cool features unavailable on...
Eachine TX01 and TX02 micro FPV camera review
A few weeks ago, when I reviewed Eachine's first AIO FPV camera, I was surprised by its small size. Now they did it again, the Eachine TX01 and TX02 are even smaller. These two new FPV cameras are specially designed for small brushed drones. Through the TX01 FPV camera, it seems that finally Eachine managed to offer a direct competitor for the popular FX797T...
FPV backpack for racing drones by Think Thank
If you are an FPV fanatic, you already know that one racing quad is never enough. Don't mention the other accessories (FPV glasses, spare batteries, etc.). This is why I like the concept of this FPV Session Backpack, it can fit up to 4 racing quads (150 - 280 mm ones), transmitters, propellers, and a lot of other stuff.
Among...
