ORRENTE Drone

ORRENTE Drone Review

Though largely unheard of, you would do well to consider getting the ORRENTE drone for adults. You would think that choosing a toy class drone for adults is simple, but it is not. When you have so many such small aircrafts to consider, you need to do your homework well before buying one.

Price is not a big deal with this quadcopter because it is very affordable. However, there is much more involved in choosing a quad than price.

You must consider the features, the automatic functions that assist with flight and photography as well as the battery life. In addition, you must also consider the downsides of the aircraft to see whether you can live with them.

From what many users say, this is a small drone, but it performs very well. Of course, with the mini drones, you can always expect erratic performance when there is even the smallest breeze. Therefore, make sure you fly it when there is no wind, in a wide-open space.

First, the user manual is so poorly written, which can make it a bit hard for a beginner to get started.

Tomzon D25

Tomzon D25 Drone Review

Do you want a small, lightweight and affordable drone that performs pretty well in gusty conditions? You ought to try the Tomzon D25. However, this does not mean that you take this drone right out in high velocity winds. It means that it can fly just fine in a breeze, without danger of losing it.

This is a small quadcopter with many good things going for it. It has excellent flight performance. On the same note, it has some misgivings too. For example, some users complain about the video and photo quality.

The price is affordable, but if you know toy-class quadcopters, you will agree that features are more important than the price. Keep reading to see the features that the D25 comes with.

Dragon Touch DF01

Dragon Touch DF01 Review

If you are looking for a simple to use and affordable drone to practice flying with, you can get the Dragon Touch DF01.

If you have experience flying these quadcopters, you would do better with a higher-priced one, with more features. This one is too basic for an advanced user.

Before you get it …

There have been some complaints about the DF01. One of them is that it runs with the wind, meaning even the smallest breeze makes it go way out of its way.

Some users say it is hard to trim and therefore, it can crash into anything. However, if you don’t mind such an issue, you will still find it a lot of fun to fly.

Other complaints that users have registered include the app crashing, the advertised battery flight time not being true and cheap build quality.

Is there some good to be found in this drone then? Let us find out in the upcoming sections.

Holy Stone HS720E 4K EIS

Holy Stone HS720E 4K EIS Review

If you are looking for an affordable camera drone that can take good quality footage, you can get the Holy Stone HS720E.

It comes equipped with effective electronic image stabilization (EIS). And that is not all! It also has a Sony sensor.

We have come to expect good cameras from HS drones. For example, their HS510 drone has a true 4K camera. Of course, you cannot lack some issues here and there. For example, a mechanical stabilization beats electronic stabilization any time. However, unless you are using such an aerial camera for professional photography, it should serve you just fine.

If you calibrate the quadcopter properly, you will not have any trouble flying it blindly, with the transmitter alone, without FPV. Overall, this Chinese drone maker has perfected the art of making affordable but feature-packed quadcopters.

Keep reading to explore some of its most outstanding features.
