DRONEEYE 4DV13

DRONEEYE 4DV13 Review

The DRONEEYE 4DV13 is a small, entry-level drone that is good for adults and children who want to get into the drone hobby. It is affordable and it has many flight functions, which make it easy to use for beginners.

This company makes good, small drones. In the past, we looked at the DRONEEYE 4DV14, which comes with some impressive hands-free functions. As you will note, the main outstanding difference between the 4DV14 and the 4DV13 is in the camera. The former has a 1080P camera, which gives slightly better quality than the 720P camera that the 4DV13 comes with.

Back to our DRONEEYE 4DV13 review, this drone has a downside that you should be aware of before you buy it.

While the camera angle is adjustable, you can only adjust it manually. This means bringing the quadcopter home to adjust the camera and then launching it again. Anyway, this is not a dealbreaker because many low-priced mini drones lack the remote vertical angle adjustment feature.

4DRC F11 PRO

4DRC F11 PRO Review

The 4DRC F11 drone has many things going for it. First, it has a long flight range, so if you do the full distance, it will certainly get out of sight. However, don’t worry about that because it has safety functions. With GPS positioning, you will always know where it is. It also has automatic return to home on battery down or signal loss.

Enabled with dual positioning capability, it hovers very well indoors and outdoors. This drone is equipped with optical flow positioning and GPS positioning. If you are buying the quadcopter for aerial photography, you will appreciate having these two functions because they enable stable hovering.

You can opt to get the F11 with one, two or three batteries at different prices. Many people want at least two batteries to increase their flight and fun time. If you want extended fun, get the three-battery package.

There is no doubt about the flying prowess of the aircraft. However, like many people, you might be disappointed in the fact that the drone does not have a three-axis gimbal, which might affect the quality of your footage.

Another thing that you might want to be aware of is that the user manual seems to be poorly translated to English.

DRONEEYE 4DV12

DRONEEYE 4DV12 Mini Drone Review

The DRONEEYE 4D V12 is a small, lightweight mini drone that you will love if you want an introduction to the drone hobby. However, please note that this is a very light drone, so it is likely to be hard to trim it when you fly it even in low velocity winds.

The minimal weight notwithstanding, this good mini can equip you with good piloting skills, in readiness for that big drone that you will buy in future.

Marketed as a drone for kids, it has many good features as well as flight functions. It is fun and very simple to fly.

While adults can outgrow it fast, children will love flying it for a long time. It is camera-enabled, so you will be introducing them to the world of aerial photography.

If you are looking for a good gift for your nine, ten or eleven year old, you can try the DRONEEYE 4DV12 quadcopter. But before you do that, you want to see more details about its features and flight modes.

Some of the things that you might want to be aware of is that it does not have propeller guards so a crash will break the blades. It also lacks the follow me function.

DRONEEYE 4DV14 Review

The DRONEEYE 4DV14 drone is good for adult beginners and kids. It also comes with some hands-free features for fun. If you are looking for an affordable quadcopter to learn how to fly, this one can help you.

This is a good drone for the money. However, it has its fair share of downsides. One of them is that the drone comes with a poorly written user manual. For a beginner, it can be hard to learn how to calibrate it and fly it for the first time.

Another common complaint is that the app is a bit clumsy to use for a beginner. It takes some time to figure out but once you do, you will unlock many flight functions for more fun.

The camera is a 1080P, so you cannot really rely on it to take good footage of your outdoor adventures.

This is no surprise since this is just a beginner camera, so you will eventually have to upgrade to a bigger one.

Holy Stone HS360

Holy Stone HS360 Review

In this Holy Stone HS360 drone review, you will see the features and flight function of this drone, before you can buy it.

Since 2014, Holy Stone has been making cheap consumer drones that have been revolutionizing the way we take aerial footage.

Today, we can say that HS plays in almost the same league as DJI and Potensic. Buying a drone from a good brand name gives you confidence that you are getting a good item, because they have a reputation to protect.

Are there any downsides that you should be aware of before buying? Not really. There have been complaints that it is a bit challenging to connect an iPhone with the drone because the smartphone holder does not seem to hold iPhones very well. However, this seems to be an isolated case.
