Xiaomi Mi Drone 4K Review and Test Flight

Hubsan H501A X4 Air Pro Review
Hubsan X4 H501A quadcopter courtesy of
Since June 2016, I’ve performed countless trouble-free flights with my Hubsan H501S quadcopter, always enjoying stable and trouble free GPS flights, especially on my vacations since the H501S is quite portable and ideal for carrying around in a bag – long before the DJI Mavic Pro – therefor I had it almost every day with me capturing the moment. So, one can imagine my excitement when I was contacted from Banggood to test the Hubsan H501A: a massive upgrade of the H501S to support digital video downlink and application control featuring advanced flight modes like waypoints and missions.

Eachine Aurora 100 Brushless Review (BNF)
Eachine Aurora 100 quadcopter courtesy of
The Eachine Aurora 100 is a 100mm frame Quad X quadcopter, suitable for intermediate pilots that want to try doing FPV flying and stunts. The platform is based on the popular SeriouslyPro Racing F3 flight controller and comes with integrated OSD, video transmitter and power distribution board (PDB), all neatly packed on a cube-type frame. The board comes with BetaFlight v3.1.1 pre-flashed and configured. Regarding the receiver, three options are available: DSMX/DSM2, FrSky and FlySky. It is a bind-and-fly (BNF) solution, the only thing needed is a compatible transmitter.

Building a 280mm Quadcopter out of spare parts (Motors and ESCs)
While waiting for more spare parts to arrive (batteries, some adhesives, a PPM/PWM converter and some connector cables), it was the perfect time to install the motors and ESCs to the frame. If you have not read the first part of the build log, I used the EMAX Nighthawk 2204/2300kV motors and EMAX BLHeli 12A ESCs.

Recently a RunCam2 HD arrived at my door. You can read a detailed review here, together with a comparison test against Mobius C2 and Xiaomi Yi. The most obvious thing to do was to mount it on my 230mm quadcopter, the Flying3D X6.

YiZhan/JJRC Tarantula X6 TX diversity mod
The YiZhan/JJRC Tarantula X6 quadcopter RX/TX uses the WLtoys v2x2 protocol which is known to have good range. This was the case with the original YiZhan Tarantula X6 (no longer commercially available) where the range was excellent (up to 300 meters in many cases). Unfortunately, the later/current builds do not have the great range of the original, in most cases is no more than 150 meters. To make things even worse, there are reported signal drop-outs and laggy behaviour when the quadcopter is over 60-70 meters from the transmitter.
