RUKO F11 Mini

Ruko F11 MINI Drone Review

The RUKO F11 mini drone is a good option for anyone who is looking to get into the drone hobby. It comes with nice features and best of all; it will give you a good footing in drone photography because it takes crisp clear footage.

This drone has a powerful flight performance thanks to the brushless motors. It is also light in weight and since it is foldable, it packs so easily for traveling. Considering the affordable price that you will pay for this quadcopter, it is good.

There are some downsides to the RUKO F11 mini drone. For instance, there have been complaints that it cannot fly beyond 200 meters, but the user manual says it can do a distance of 500 meters. Most users say it cannot go beyond 260 meters without losing connectivity with the remote controller.

Also, please note that you must use an SD card to store your footage since this drone does not transfer the media to your smartphone.

Potensic Atom SE

Potensic Atom SE Drone (FlyMore Combo) Review

Over the last few years, mini drones have become more popular. Most of them, including the Potensic Atom SE mini drone that we will review here, weigh less than 250 grams. This means you don’t have to register it with the FAA before you can fly it.

The Potensic Atom SE drone is not exactly the DJI Mini SE quadcopter, which we reviewed earlier. But it does give advanced and beginner pilots a thrilling flight experience.

The camera, with a Sony sensor is decent, the flight time is excellent and for the price … Many drone enthusiasts agree that this is the real deal, coming real close to the DJI Mini SE.

While this seems like a superb adult beginner drone, it still has some issues, reported several times over, so it is not an isolated case.

The controls are too sensitive such that it is very easy to overshoot your target. If you touch a joystick accidently, the drone can dive, fly away fast.

You will also need a fast SD card to store your footage in high resolution. If you have a slow SD card, the video recording will fail.

NEHEME NH760 Review

If you are wondering whether 100 bucks can buy you a good drone, it can get you the NEHEME NH760 quadcopter for beginners.

This quadcopter is for adult as well as kid beginners. It is easy to fly, has good features to introduce you to the world of drones. It will give you a good foundation on how drones fly so that you can buy a bigger, better one with higher specs in future.

While the drone ticks many boxes, it also has some downsides. For instance, the smartphone holder on the remote controller is not going to hold heavier mobile phones.
