Looking forward to receiving it! How would you use it? If you have any question about it or want me to try something, don’t hesitate to ask.

In a selfie drone, I would like to see simple and quick start up. Has to be very easy to use. I would also want to see good pictures and videos. Good both on quality and resolution. i couldn’t find the camera resolution in the description though.

Obviously there a difference if taking a pic WITH a barometer or BY a barometer! who would think grammar could be so important when flying drones

Being able to fold isn’t something new and was already seen on the Eachine E50 . But, it’s bigger size kind of raises a few questions. I’ll have to look deeper into that, why did they make it bigger? whats the difference?

The one-button return to launch is also a big question, how will it perform without a GPS on board? will it really manage to come back? even if i was flying around for a while, will it remember how to get home?

You can choose to buy between two versions: BNF & RTF. TRF comes with a remote where BNF will either use a radio you already own or your phone.

Racing Drone parts list – May. 2017

I see too many pilots flying miniquads they built as kits from aliexpress, eBay and some other weird places to buy miniquads from. Their miniquads are more prone to breaking because of a bad choice for a frame, cheap motors and ESCs with low performance and etc…! This Miniquad Parts List is here to battle all those crappy kits and save the newbies some money…

My previous list was posted 10months ago, you can find it HERE. A building log can be found HERE.

Bind QX90 tiny drone with a DSM receiver

The DSM receiver used on the Tiny QX90 doesn’t have a bind button. To bind QX90 with a DSM receiver just plug the battery to the quad, turn on your transmitter and click the bind button on the transmitter.

When the QX90 switches on, the receiver tries to bind for about 3 seconds (led blinking). Once binded the led will stay on.
