ZLRC SG107

ZLRC SG107 Review

Rarely do you find a foldable quadcopter with a 4K HD camera selling at such a low price, but the ZLRC SG107 is one of them. For less than $40, you can have this feature-rich toy-class drone.

When ordering this quad, you will have three camera options to consider. One of them is the 4K WiFi camera, which is the most affordable, but it hardly takes 4K footage. Then there is the 1080P optical flow camera version that is slightly more expensive. Finally, you can order the one with the 4K Optical Flow camera at just about the same price as the 1080P one.

You also have the option of buying the quadcopter with a bag or a box. With a bag, it costs more but it is worth it because it makes storage and traveling easier. If you order the one with the box, you might need to buy a bag in future to travel with the SG107.

DEERC D10 Drone Review

Despite having some issues such as not holding the programming for trim or flying poorly in the wind, the DEERC D10 is a good beginner drone.

The user manual does not do justice to this quadcopter. It is obvious that a native English speaker did not write it. It is a bit confusing to a beginner. It does not explain things very well.

Well, every drone has its issues. However, when the pros are more than the cons, we conclude that it is a good drone. It is sold at an affordable price and when you fly it with caution, it performs really well.

When you get your D10, it should have the quadcopter itself, transmitter, 2 batteries, 4 prop guards, 4 spare propellers, screwdriver and user manual. It also comes with its own storage bag, a high quality piece with a carry handle.

JJRC A353GW Review

When you see the price of the JJRC A353GW drone, the first thought that comes to your mind is that they don’t come cheaper than this.

It is rare to find a cheaply priced quad coming with features such as a 4K camera. However, the times are changing and forward-thinking drone makers like Potensic, DJI, JJRC and others are now packing more features into toy-class quads.

You may order the JJRC X16 drone with one, two or three batteries, of course at different prices. However, even if you go for the one with three batteries, you will find the price fair considering the features that you get.

DEERC D50 Drone Review

If you are an adult and you need a beginner drone to usher you into the game, you will find the DEERC D50 a good buy. It is one of the best beginner drones with camera for adults.

Many adults find the toy drones for children a bit unexciting. Besides, when buying the first quad, you want one that is not too boring. You want to be able to stick with it for several months before you can think of upgrading.

While the D50 has its downsides, it has exciting features and fun flight functions. There are issues with the way it flies. It is a bit jittery, you know, fails to keep a straight line, but you should be fine if you fly it in calm weather.

Another small issue with the drone is that the landing gear seems a bit unstable. Therefore, if you land it too hard, the landing gear might become loose.

It is not foldable, and it does not come with a case. Therefore, you will have to spend extra money to buy a carry-case.

Not to worry though! The pros are more than the cons, so it is a good quad to invest money on.
