Just found out about this Flying 3D X6 Plus quadcopter but I can’t really call it a new model because the “basic” version of it was released many months ago. At first sight the “Plus” edition is the well-known Flying 3D X6 with a complete first-person view system. The price difference between these two models is around $100.
Honestly, I can’t say that the 1MP camera is a huge upgrade, and it’s worth the extra $100. Nevertheless, considering the fact that Flying 3D X6 Plus costs around $300 and you get for your money a complete FPV GPS model, this quadcopter will be on the wishlist of many people.
The real-time video feed from the quadcopter’s camera is displayed on a 4.3″ color 5.8GHz FPV LCD screen to provide the unique sensation of the FPV flights.
This new Flying 3D X6 Plus comes with dual GPS and awesome features like one key return to home and stable hovering.
Unfortunately, the extra weight of the camera dramatically decreased the flight time to around 8 minutes. In my opinion, the engineers from Flying 3D should have added a higher capacity battery to keep the 15 minutes of flight time from the previous model.
