My limited experience with two drones, adding a larger battery was that it gave a considerable increase in flying time, even though there was a slight trade off with performance.

Good and thorough review, thanks BillM of this robust drone. This is my first GPS 'heavyweight' drone and for the price (circa $150), I am becoming more and more impressed the more I use it. It is easy to fly and stable and takes reasonable photos and videos, for only a 2K camera. I've slung a...

Thanks, that was so useful, even for those who only buy a complete drone package as it contains some essential information about looking after LiPo batteries. (I should remember that YouTube has the answer to almost everything. :) The 'C' rating (Continuous?) is a new rating to me, put in this...

I'm not an expert on batteries but there have been several comments on this forum regarding charging rates etc and I cannot find any general advice here. I'm more used to Lead acid, NiCads or the newer Nickel Metal Hydrides NiMH, so I did a little investigation and have come up with the...

I would be very careful about trying to use a different charger as Li-ion cannot accept an overcharge plus you can overheat and destroy them with too fast a charge. It is very easy to destroy these batteries hence the conservative charge times. Holtneil's suggestion seems the best course to...

Thanks. A most useful review. The things that stood out for me were the stabiity (weight 440gm), long flight time, gimble stabalised camera and smoothness of the video but the fact that it only takes 1080p video is a non-starter for me. Also of interest was that this is almost identical to the...

Impressively smooth video, good focus and works well in low light as well as good light. I should have waited and bought one of these.

Enjoyed the videos, even the crash! The video appears to have better stabalisaton in the later examples.

Looking forward to your initial report. I have an X11 which is a bit heavier. It is very stable and highly controllable, but I'm a little disappointed with the camera quality. As a result, I suspend (quite awkwardly) a 4K 'CheapPro' Action Cam, underneath, which gives very good results with its...

In the UK, from Drone Registration I've registered and taken the test. It is quite sensible and straight forward.

Just received an ACHICOO J-J-R-C X11 5G WIFI F-PV With 2K Camera GPS 20mins Flight Time Foldable RC Drone Quadcopter vs f11 b4w sg906 1 battery Sold by: ZhenguaUK Can confirm that it does not work with my phone, a One Plus One. :confused: It didn't occur to me that 'phone compatibility was an...

Not much to choose between them, but maybe 2 was just better than 3 & 4. 1 was the least smooth, IMO.
