JJRC H23 drone car in-depth review
Recently, JJRC announced their H23 drone car. It is basically the SY X25 but with a much nicer design. Notably, both models can be easily switched from ground to air operation. Practically you can drive the JJRC H23 like a car and then fly it like any other drone. The kids will love this feature for sure.
The 2-in-1 concept offered by...
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...

Potensic ATOM: A sub250g, sophisticated 4K drone
When Potensic launched the Atom drone in September 2023, I was excited that yet another company realized how important the sub-250g market segment is for hobbyists and casual users to enjoy drone flying without bureaucratic hurdles. In many countries, drones that weigh under 250 grams (0.55lb) are exempted from aircraft registration and the need for a pilot license.
In this...
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...
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...
DarwinFPV CineApe 25 review: CineWhoop for $139
CineWhoop-style FPV drones are the most appropriate for newcomers to the RC hobby. The DarwinFPV CineApe 25 comes with an injection-molded 360° propeller guard and a straightforward maintenance approach, all for a friendly price tag. First-time FPV pilots, even if they are after several hours of practicing with PC drone simulators, will crash their drones in acro mode. At...
ZHIYUN SMOOTH-Q2 review
Like many awesome gadgets, the ZHIYUN SMOOTH-Q2 also started on Kickstarter. While the project goal was set to $100050, they managed to raise more than $300k from about 2300 backers - and the numbers are growing hour by hour. SMOOTH Q2 promises not just to be one of the smallest phone gimbal, but also the most easy to use....
DarwinFPV BabyApe Ⅱ: Supercheap FPV drone
A few weeks ago DarwinFPV introduced their new BabyApe Ⅱ drone with basic waterproofing and other nifty upgrades, including a more durable frame structure. Our review covers unboxing, features and technical specifications, initial setup, and flight performance.

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...
Foxeer Legend 1: Lightweight camera for drones
It seems I have reached the end of my small form-factor camera road map. This Foxeer Legend 1 is the last model from the "Mobius family" which I have to review. It will definitely be hard for this Foxeer camera to fight with the features of the new RunCam 2.
In my opinion, the biggest challenge of the FPV camera manufacturers...
