Force1 F100 Drone – Sweet Child Of Mine!

June 3, 2017 By Paula Leave a Comment

Catch all of the action like never before with this F100 GoPro Brushless Drone.
It’s super quiet and has two speeds so you can capture insane action shots.

  • GOPRO CAMERA DRONE: Now you can sync compatible GoPro Hero 3 and Hero 4 action cameras with your drone thanks to the convenient camera mount on the F100 drone
  • BRUSHLESS MOTORS FOR SMOOTH CONTROL: The powerful motors on this drone are much quieter than others. Plus, they provide a longer flight time and offer smoother and more precise control
  • IDEAL DRONE FOR VIDEO & PICTURES: Equipped with High/Low-Speed Mode to easily control the speed of your flight & it’s ultra quiet to help eliminate unwanted noise on your videos
  • EXTRA LONG FLIGHT TIMES – GREAT DRONE FOR BEGINNERS: The flight time on the F100 puts other drones to shame lasting up to 19 minutes per flight.

Force1 F100 GoPro RC Quadcopter Drone

Wow! I recently had the opportunity to explore this Force1 F-100 Brushless Drone. Following the easy-to-follow instruction manual after unboxing, I assembled the propeller blades, propeller guards, and landing gear of this beauty. I found this drone and all its parts to be well constructed from quality materials. When the sweet 7.4-volt battery was fully charged, it was time for our first flight. After energizing the F-100, a few pleasant surprises became apparent. First, the onboard LEDs are large and highly visible. Also, this drone is equipped with a very bright headlight which helped differentiate between front and rear for easier flight orientation. This quadcopter comes with a removable GoPro Hero 3 and Hero 4 sports camera mount which gives it a lot of flexibility in video capturing. We have an off brand and had no problem using the mount with it, also. This well-built drone has a lot more lift power and speed than all of my other drones which are also in this price range. We were pleased with the extended flight time that we received. Even with carrying the extra weight of our camera we still experienced flight time of about double that of our other drones. We are quite impressed and pleased with every aspect of this drone. As always we wish it came with an extra battery for more flight time. The fun always seems to be over to soon.

Got a Dad would love one of these for Father’s Day? They’re available on Amazon.
You’ll have Dad singing Sweet Child Of Mine if you give him one of these!

Things Just Got More Exciting With the Navigator U31W UDI Drone!

May 2, 2017 By Paula Leave a Comment

Picture

Your next outdoor excursion just got a whole lot more exciting with the latest action-packed design of the Navigator U31W UDI drone.
​

Picture

​
Toting around big, bulky drones is a thing of the past! This convenient, compact drone not only comes with a sleek, new look but is also packed with all of the advanced features you’d expect to see on much pricier quadcopter models.

  • ALTITUDE HOLD FUNCTION: SUPER EASY DRONE FOR BEGINNERS TO FLY: Makes controlling the drone a breeze for beginners and stabilizes aerial photography. This is the ideal beginner drone with a lot of the latest features typically found on higher end models.
  • ONE TOUCH TAKE OFF AND LANDING: Drone automatically hovers at a set altitude after take off and before landing making it easy to control and maneuver, especially for beginners who are not yet skilled.
  • CUSTOM ROUTE MODE : Trace the desired flight path on the mobile app screen and the drone will fly along the path unassisted
  • HD CAMERA: Capture 720p high definition aerial photos and videos with 2MP camera; Sync it to your controller to really bring life to your flights!
  • LATEST DESIGN AND FEATURES: Made with ABS material, Emergency Stop, Low battery and Out of Range alarm, Motor stuck protection, Headless mode

After unboxing Navigator U31W, I began reading the enclosed operations guide. The guide is very thorough on pre-flight, calibration, and functions. However, I noticed on the pre-flight checklist number 3 refers to picture 16 as a visual for proper unlocking and activating motors. Picture 16 shows take off/landing and emergency stop. Unlocking and Activation are illustrated in picture 12. Also under “flying control” it states activation and take off are illustrated in picture 16, it should be picture 12. Other than these two issues the operations guide is very informative and helpful for the user.After fully charging the drone and setting up pre-flight procedure I activated the motors for flight and was instantly impressed by the power of the on-board motors even in low speed. A very nice feature that my previous three drones did not offer and this drone does is its three speeds. Overall the Navigator U31W impressed me with its small yet powerful appearance. 

Picture

The remote control seems a bit large but controls the drone very precisely with no hesitation. The four AA batteries allow the remote to function competently. I would prefer rechargeable Li-Po battery similar to the drone’s battery. The simplicity of the controller is great; all buttons are pertinent to the drone’s operation. The only improvement would be if it offered camera control and an integrated video screen for consumers who want to use it without a smartphone.

Navigator Drone Battery
I really like the battery being molded into the body of the drone, very smart. I found it easy to remove and reinsert, unlike other drones with a wired battery. However, I found just six minutes of flight time for sixty minutes of charging frustrating. A second battery like my Hornet came with would be a huge selling point with consumers like myself.
​
I hope that you have found my evaluation of the 
Navigator U31W FPV Realtime Drone helpful.

Mother’s and Father’s Day are just around the corner so if you’ve got an Mom or Dad on your list who are ready to jump into the world of flying quads this drone would make a great gift!
