EXO X7 Ranger Plus

EXO X7 Ranger PLUS Review

On Amazon, they refer to the EXO X7 Ranger PLUS as a high-end beginner adult drone with camera. Therefore, we set out to explore whether it is really high-end, by looking at the features it comes with.

Some of the most important considerations when buying a drone includes the flight range, the camera quality, battery time/flight time, and the build quality. You shall read about all those here, in detail.

There are really no serious downsides with this drone, well, except for the high price. All the same, there have been complaints that the company will claim you have crash-landed the drone if you land it on the grass and one of the motors fail.

As usual, we advise you to fly your drone when the weather is calm, no rain, no snow and no wind.

Tucok 011 Drone

Tucok 011 Review

The Tucok 011 comes with a remote controller that has an LCD display. It also comes with brushless motors and level 5-wind resistance. If you would like an advanced drone to get you into the flying hobby and you do not want to spend a lot of money on popular names such as DJI, get this one.

Besides, the overall control range for this drone is quite long. Even if you are an advanced drone pilot, you will find the 011 very exciting and you probably won’t outgrow it, unless you want a racing drone. As your aerial camera of choice, you will find that it can capture stunning footage, all conditions being right.

There is a small downside to be aware of. For instance, it has a laser camera for obstacle avoidance. However, you have to install it by following the instructions in the user manual. This is a small bother, but some people find it confusing.

Keep reading as we look at the features and flight functions of the Tucok drone.

YKRC 47 Drone

YKRC YK47 Drone Review

The YKRC YK47 comes with strong motors and long-lasting batteries. Such a combination is rare to find in this price range.

If you are looking for your beginner drone, you might find the price a bit too high on this one. But no price is too high if the features and in this case, the flight functions, can justify it.

So, is the YK47 quadcopter worth the money that you will pay for it? We can only tell when we look at the features in detail. But to give you a sneak peek, the camera has a 50X zoom! How cool is that!

The flight time from one battery is quite good if it can get to the advertised flight time of 28 minutes. There are many more features.

There are also a couple of downsides, which we like to mention beforehand so that you can decide whether this is the item for you. One downside is that the remote controller does not come with a rechargeable battery.

The price is also a bit too high as compared to most other drones with similar features. For instance, the Ruko F11GIM that we reviewed earlier has almost similar features and its price is about $100 cheaper.

Let’s look at the features and flight functions of the YKRC YK47 drone.
