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.

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.

SYMA X600

SYMA X600 Review

The SYMA X600 drone is a small, adult and kid beginner drone that flies well, and comes in two versions – the basic and the upgraded version.

The basic version is foldable, comes with a remote controller and it does not have a camera. However, the upgraded version comes with a nose camera with a resolution of 1080P.

If you buy the first version without a camera, you will have to fly it blindly with the remote controller alone. The good thing is that the overall flight range is not too long, so it will always be in your sight.

Mostly, in this X600 review article, we shall be looking at the basic version, without a camera. Before you write it off, it makes a perfect gift for kids or any other person that you want to introduce to the drone hobby.

Although it looks like a great small drone for beginners all round, there have been some complaints about the camera version. The SYMA Fly app seems not to connect specifically to the X600.

Also, this is a small drone, light in weight and without much to offer except the flying experience. Thus, as soon as you have learned how to fly, you will outgrow it and you will probably want a bigger one.

Keep reading to see the features and specs of the SYMA X600 drone.

Potensic P5 Drone

Potensic P5 with 2.7K Camera Review

Potensic is a dronemaker who has something for everyone. For instance, they have mini drones for kids and adults, packed with features and flight functions. They even have the DREAMER 4K drone fly more combo, which comes with a myriad of accessories. However, here, we are going to do a review of the Potensic P5 with a 2.7K camera.

You can order this drone with a carry bag and two batteries for longer flight time. It does not have a GPS.

The second P5 drone comes with a 2.7K camera and smart GPS return when it loses signal or battery runs low.

The third option is the P5 RC drone comes with a 1080P camera. This is also the cheapest version.

Some of the downsides you might want to know about the P5 with a 2.7K camera include the fixed camera angle (not possible to adjust angle remotely).

DJI Mavic 3

DJI Mavic 3 Review

In their description for the DJI Mavic 3, they use this line – Imaging Above Everything. The inclusion of a Hasselblad 4/3 CMOS camera backs this claim.

Hasselblad is the leader in digital cameras and lenses. Thus, if aerial shooting is your thing, you should get the Mavic 3.

The Mavic 3 comes in three packages. First, there is the DJI Mavic 3, which we are reviewing here.

The second package is the Mavic 3 Fly More Combo, which is costlier by several hundreds of dollars. It comes with three batteries, a convertible bag, filters set and a charging hub.

The third one is the Cine Premium Combo, which comes with all the things that the Fly Combo comes with. It also has extras such as built-in storage of up to 1TB SSD and Apple ProRes 422 HQ recording.

This one is costly at $2800 more than the Mavic 3, but many people agree that the features and functions justify the price.

Back to our Mavic 3 review, what are some of the downsides that you should know? One of them is the cost! The features notwithstanding, the price is simply too steep for many drone enthusiasts.

The second downside is that while this drone has so many advanced features, most of them are locked, so they will be activated in future. This means you cannot use them right now.
