Kingkong ET Series ET125 brushed TinyWhoop
Kingkong, my favorite TinyWhoop alternative manufacturer, announced a new brushed family with 3 different sized drones called ET Series. All 3 versions (ET125, ET115 and ET100) are available with 3 different radio receivers. According to your existing transmitter you can opt between: Frsky XM, Flysky FS-RX2A and Spektrum DSM2 receivers.
In front of the aircraft is located the OV231 800TVL camera,...
Syma X22W, another wannabe selfie drone
Syma, a well known toy drone manufacturer, recently announced the X22W - a wannabe selfie drone. Excepting the small size and built-in WiFi FPV camera, there is nothing like the JJRC H37 aka the first sElfie Drone.
Featuring altitude-hold, the Syma X22W is capable to autonomously maintain its flight altitude at the desired level. Headless flight mode is another feature...
Mirarobot S60, a rethought TinyWhoop
Reaching speeds only up to 20 km per hour, the Mirarobot S60 drone will not win any race but for sure is a good start for newbies. Allowing to switch between 3 and 6 axis stabilized mode, they can accommodate not just with the basic flight movements but also can learn to do some flip tricks.
As I can understand from...
Hubsan H122D X4 STORM FPV racing quadcopter
After long absence, Hubsan is back with a compact racing quad-copter called H122D X4 Storm. Being a new model, there is a bit chaos regarding the exact features of the Hubsan H122D.
Hubsan announced the H122D Storm in two variants. Basic package without fpv display and a deluxe package with included 4.3" FPV monitor and compatible FPV goggle.
Based on my experience...
Jumper T8SG Multi-Protocol: One RC for all your drones
As lately most of the drones can be purchased in BNF package (without RC), multi-protocol transmitters like the Jumper T8SG can save you lots of money and space. Why should you buy every drone with its own remote controller when you already have one compatible with most of the popular radio protocols.
Jumper T8SG Multi-Protocol is the first commercially manufactured transmitter...
Drocon Cyclone X708W cheap drone for beginners
Like I promised last week, here I am with the next Drocon drone, the Cyclone X708W. Compared to the Bugs 6, the Drocon Cyclone X708W is a basic model with brushed models and limited functionalities.
When it comes to beginners I suggest not to invest a lot of money into something they can crash at first flight. Sold for only $55,...
DROCON Bugs 6: Racing drone for intermediate pilots
Honestly, about the "Drocon" brand I heard for the first time one week ago. Besides the Bugs 6, they have couple of other nice drones. The following weeks I want to introduce you the most exciting ones in our news section.
At first look, the DROCON Bugs 6 quadcopter is an intermediate step for those who want to migrate from toy drones to...
WINGSLAND X1 WIFI FPV drone
After a long absence, Wingsland returns with their first wannabe racing drone called X1. Honestly, adopting WiFi FPV, the WINGSLAND X1 is far away to be a real FPV racing quadcopter.
In order to allow perfectly stable indoor flights, the Wingsland X1 features, besides the barometric air-pressure sensor, an optical flow sensor.
Under the belly of the fuselage is locate an extension...
S9W mini foldable drone with FPV camera
Measuring about only 4.9 x 6.2 x 3 cm, the S9W drone is one of the smallest foldable drone. The small size is paired with an attractive design and all the latest features.
Thanks to the built-in air-pressure sensor, the aircraft is capable to autonomously maintain its flight altitude. This feature is very handy for first-time pilots.
In front of the...
Cheap drones for Christmas 2017: JJRC H66 and JJRC H67
Like me, probably everyone wants to be the "cool guy" which offers the best Christmas gifts. These days, toy drones became affordable and widely available, also very popular among the kids. Honestly, being a parent, I prefer to give my child a drone with which he can play outside rather than a video game that keeps him in the...
Fighter 220 DIY FPV Racing quadcopter
DIY does not necessarily mean cheap. For the price of Fighter 220 you can find really nice ready-to-fly (RTF) racing quadcopters. Anyway, in my opinion, building your own drone doubles the fun and also makes you understand how these flying machines work.
Like most of the modern racing drones, the Fighter 220 is also based on the versatile F4 flight controller....
