First Quadcopter

After the Cheerson CX-OF, here is another toy drone with optical flow sensor called: Flying3D FY919. Optical sensor combined with air-pressure sensor allows perfectly stable hovering. At first look, the design of the Flying3D FY919 Reaper reminds me about a hover drone from the Avatar movie. It features similar caged propellers, which makes it suitable for safe indoor flights. In order to allow...

Building brick drones like this Flytec T11S doubles the fun. In my opinion there is no kid that never have played with a Lego - it was my son's favorite toy too for few years. The Flytec T11S DIY drone comes in parts and needs to be assembled by yourself. All the electronic components come with connectors, so no soldering required. Compared to...

Advertised for about 150 bucks, the GOFLY-RC Falcon CP90 is certainly not the cheapest mini brushless drone - especially that it comes in PNP package. But lets see what you get for your money. When it comes to racing quadcopters, crashes are inevitable. In order to reduce the possible damages, the frame is made from carbon fiber and the electronic parts...

Hi, and welcome back. The Eachine E51 review is my fifth article on FirstQuadcopter.com. Traditionally, I will try to reveal as much information as possible about this Eachine E51 selfie drone. Of course, not just the good stuff, the bad ones as well. Over the last few years, Eachine has become one of the most active players in the toy drone market....

Eachine E56 brings new waves in the world of toy drones. Instead of the usual two-stick transmitter, it adopts a "magic" remote controller with a gyro sensor - similar to the one is used with VR glasses. As you can see in the image below, the remote controller can be used with one hand. It has only one control stick,...

At first look, the OBTAIN F803 looks like a great alternative to the popular Mavic Pro. It has not just a similar foldable design but also comparable features. The OBTAIN F803 drone comes in 2 Colors, white and black. My biggest concern regarding these new gadgets from unknown manufactures is the after-sale support through spare parts availability. Famous brands like DJI...

Excepting the lack of a built-in DVR, the SKYRC Immersion GO has all the features that a good FPV goggle needs and even some extras. Thanks to the HDMI input and built-in speaker you can use it to watch movies from an external media player. In order to allow comfortable usage, the SKYRC HD FPV goggle has adjustable head-strap and low-noise...

Following the success of their FPV headplays (with large single LCD), Eachine announced their first dual LCD FPV goggles called EV100. The new design allows much compact size which means more comfortable use. The Eachine EV100 FPV goggles is advertised for only $99, which makes it a truly FatShark killer. Of course, only if FOV is correct and RX sensitivity is good. Unfortunately, even...

With the Aomway 1/3 CCD 650TVL, you get more than a simple camera. Its OSD allows you to monitor the elapsed flight time and battery voltage. Frankly, in the case of FPV flights, these two are the most important telemetry information. It is critical to know if you have enough craft to return and land. Aomway was founded in 2011 and,...

Seeing the first images of the YH-13HW quadcopter, I was nicely impressed by those colorful LED lights. Being a multi-rotor enthusiast, I consider that every drone has its own charm. When it comes to first-time pilots I recommend to start with cheap toy drones. Because crashes are inevitable I suggest to look for quads with propeller protectors. Additional to the cool...
