![]() This is not possible after the take-off, so I recommend a tilt of about 20-30° from the horizontal axis for normal video and photo flights. The camera itself can only be aligned vertically before the flight. The DroneX Pro has a small camera on board that can record photos and videos during the flight. As soon as a breeze blows, the DroneX Pro becomes a wind chime. In the test, the copter flies for 6 minutes, after which it has to stop for charging. It reacts promptly to control commands, I would estimate the range at a solid 30 but maximum 50 meters. I have to trim the machine more or less on the spot, probably not least because of my gluing action. The DroneX Pro flies in the air okay at best. The axles are so wobbly and unevenly aligned that nothing works. Here we go.Īt least I thought so – because the copter responded to the first two start attempts with wild spinning on the floor. Now, the app is connected to the mobile phone, drone and RC spark again. The last time I was almost desperate because of the app JY-UFO and since then I have come to appreciate the in-house solutions of Ryze, Syma, Parrot and of course DJI in a whole new way. This app for the DroneX Pro is an old acquaintance, as it is often used by various drone brands as a cheap solution for FPV live images and some telemetry data. In most cases the practical usability of the video stream fails because of the low camera resolution, too few frames per second (slide show effect) and a bad WIFI signal. Many (all too) cheap entry level models and mini drones tried this feature. Like most FPV drones with, you can view the live image of the DroneX Pro on your smartphone. I charge the battery as usual, insert batteries and put my focus on the app. But I can’t get rid of the feeling that a really cheap scrap metal copter is being miserably and brazenly marketed here as a great multi-copter for beginners. I try to get rid of the bad mood that has built up in the meantime. The DroneX Pro under review: Preparations for the first flight The remote control is familiar in design and construction from the DJI Mavic Pro and the ScharkSpark Thunder FQ 35, but nothing folds out, the two transmission antennas are just for show, like on the FQ 35. A few landings in the (wet) grass and a short circuit is inevitable. But the unprotected slot seems a bit risky to me. Good to know where my photos and videos will end up. Unprotected on the underside/landing area of the drone. You better not land on wet grass.īut with all this work I discover the slot for the microSD card. Drone X Pro SD card: exposed to water without protection ![]() I have to use so much force that I think it will tear the copter apart. Unfortunately, I only get the battery out of the battery bay with force and a screwdriver. ![]() Increased randomness of engine positions hardly goes hand in hand with superior flight performance for me. I shrug my shoulders and ask myself what this will happen during flight. The DroneX Pro is not alone with this problem: Many cheap drones, whose biggest (and only) feature are the foldable axes, have this problem. Drone X Pro Review: Weak point of the drone: quality!Īlso considered as a whole, the whole axle-hinge construction makes an extremely spongy, wobbly and cheap impression. The positioning and thus the distance between the motors remains vague. Or: The axis must be straightened even further. The axles do not lock, no clicking, no marking signals: This far and no further. But the misery begins with the unfolding of the device. The drone measures barely 10 cm when folded. But I don’t want to get ahead of myself.īeside Quadcopter (DJI Mavic Pro-Optics), remote control (also replica) and battery, there is also a manual, protective frame and charging equipment included.Ĭompared to other mini drones under 100 USD, you get quite a lot ontop with the Drone X Pro. Looking back I have to say: The case is better than the contents. That’s actually quite fancy! The transport case has a shiny hard shell look on the outside and is padded with foam on the inside.
