FPV Airport Backpack for racing fanatics
In my opinion, the most important goal of the FPV backpack manufacturers is to design a product that fits any racing quadcopter. Nevertheless, if you want to fit inside more than one drone, the challenge is even bigger. At first impression, the FPV Airport Helipak by ThinkThank is not just very customizable but also comfortable.
Thanks to the wide range of products,...
Tablet and FPV screen chest harness review
At the time I started my journey in the world of quadcopters I didn't have thought about the utility of such a device as this tablet harness.
Later, when I evolved to FPV quadcopters and more intelligent drones, it became clear that I needed something to hang my FPV LCD or Tablet (ground station) on my chest. Mounting my Samsung...
Eachine QX70 review: Nice concept but underpowered
As I said in one of my recent reviews, during cold winter days, I prefer smaller FPV drones like this Eachine QX70. Adopting ducted propellers, they are totally "harmless" for indoor practice. Even my curios cat is safe with them :)
This "ducted" madness started with the Tiny Whoop, whose biggest downside was the high price. Later, manufacturers like Eachine...
Eachine FB90 review: Testing the “Fatbee”
Lately, due to unfavorable weather for outdoor flights, I started to play indoors with my micro FPV drones. Luckily, this month, I got another three models for review, including this Eachine Fatbee FB90. Honestly, among all the micro FPV quads, FB90 has a much more friendly design.
Unlike most of the mini brushed FPV drones which are powered by 1s batteries, the Fatbee...
HobbyMate Q100 review: Build and Test
During winter days, when outside is -15ºC, you can't find the mood to play outdoors with your favorite racing drone. Luckily, micro brushed quads like this HobbyMate Q100 are great for replacing outdoor fun with an indoor one. The advantage of this model over dirty cheap toy drones is the versatile and programmable flight controller.
After I reviewed many RTF packages, I liked the idea that the...
XBM-55 review: Nice design and lots of features
Yesterday, my wife came home with a package. I was not waiting for any quadcopter but out of boringness I immediately opened the box. Surprise! It was the T-Smart XBM-55. I was waiting to receive this drone for review for about two months and honestly, I thought it was never sent or the package got lost so I completely...
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,...
