Walkera QR X350

The Walkera QR X350 Pro is a top-of-the-line drone. The Pro version improves on the original version, and it’s no doubt that there are some great new features to check out. Walkera really improved on a lot of major flaws in the first QR x350.
This is by far one of our favorite drones. Comparing the DJI Phantom 2 and the QR x350 Pro is tough as they are both great drones. We think that the Walkera Pro has overall better flight control, but we’ll touch on this more later through the rest of our Walkera QR X350 Pro review.

Things We Like

Design: The overall RTF drone without the gimbal is great. It’s easy to fly, easy to set-up, and easy to calibrate. Walkera did a great job of making the design user friendly and well-made. A step-up from the original version, the QR x350 Pro has stronger wire connections, better construction, and more durable pieces. Walkera did a great job of correcting this from the previous model.
Controller: You have a few different options that allow for further video stream. The F7 model has a FPV screen on the controller. It also says that the range for the FPV is about a kilometer, but we think that it maxes out about 300-400 km. It is a great transmitter overall and much better than the previous model’s controller. The DEVO 10 controller (another option) says that the range is two kilometers. We estimate that this may reach a kilometer.
Pricing: For an intermediate level drone, the Walkera QR x350 Pro is actually well-priced. It’s not ridiculously expensive but it does have the capabilities of high-end drones. One thing to remember: you must buy the camera separately, making this a more expensive choice than it originally seems.
Battery: The battery lasts nearly 25 minutes per charge, equal to other drones around a similar price point. We think this is one of the best features of this product.
GPS System: The GPS is built into the transmitter. It allows the drone to access satellite information and return home if it strays out of range or runs out of power. This feature is important to help protect your investment.

Things We Don’t Like

Not GoPro Compatible: One major flaw of this drone is that the gimbal included and used with the Pro can only hold the Walkera iLook. Not only does this reduce the quality of the video (because we think the iLook isn’t as good) but it also deters people wanting to use a GoPro. The GoPro camera can be used in a lot of different situations and many extreme sports enthusiasts use it all the time and then use it with their drone. This isn’t a possibility with the Pro version.
Gimbal assembly: The Gimbal is extremely difficult to connect. The screws are small and the overall assembly is tedious and annoying. We found ourselves wanting to throw the gimbal against the wall.
Instructions: The instructions are confusing and contain a lot of jargon that most consumers won’t understand. It’s too hard to know exactly what they’re trying to say and even as experts we still had to look up videos online to find out how to calibrate the drone.

Conclusion

This QR x350 Pro review is intended to educate drone enthusiasts and help them to make the correct purchase when buying a drone. This is an excellent starting model for someone looking to break into serious drone filming. It is better made than the previous version and the battery life lasts much longer. Walkera has done a great job of assessing the issues users we discussed in the previous review and coming out with something of quality.

Apple 13" MacBook Pro review

A pple’s latest laptop, the new 13in MacBook Pro, is a much anticipated re-design of the company’s notebook range and represents a brave new USB-C-only future. But is it worth sacrificing ports and spending the best part of £2,000 to use?  The last update to the MacBook Pro that was more than simply a spec-bump was in 2012 with the addition of a high-resolution “Retina” screen. Four years on, powerful notebooks with high-resolution screens that can last all day on a single charge are commonplace in the premium market. The competition has never been more fierce. Thinner, lighter and now in dark grey The new MacBook Pro is thinner and lighter than the old one – like almost every tech product every year. It’s also smaller in almost every meaningful way. Even the screen is thinner, and the light-up  Apple  logo on the lid is no more. The trackpad has grown considerably, taking up a sizeable proportion of the laptop’s wrist rest In fact it’s so big you will ...

PS4 Pro review

Introduction  The PS4 Pro is a massive change from the consoles we've seen before.  Whereas traditionally each new piece of hardware (excluding hardware refreshes like the PS4 slim) represented a clean break with the previous console, the PS4 Pro is a much smaller step.  Instead it maintains exactly the same library of games as the existing PS4. All PS4 games work on the PS4 Pro, and all of the game's that are released for the PS4 Pro will continue to work on the existing PS4.  So it's not exactly a PS5, but it's a significant upgrade over the existing PS4. Chief amongst the upgraded specs is support for new technologies like 4K and HDR which will allow you to make use of the newest generation of TV hardware.   The downside is that not all of it will be native 4K, but Sony has also baked in a number of clever upscaling technologies to the new console to act as a stopgap.   But is it worth the upgrad...

GoPro Hero 5 review (black)

GoPro Hero 5 Black design The size and layout of the Hero 5 Black camera feels very familiar for those who’ve previously used a GoPro, and the ergonomics retain the style we’re used to, but there is a clear difference in appearance between this one and the previous models. One of the main things about this redesign is that the actual unit is now fully waterproof down to 10 metres without the need for a separate housing. Retail price:  £519.99 Latest deal:  £479.99  from Littlewoods   (save 7.69%) While this is one of the best features about this camera, there are a couple of downsides to it. Now that it doesn’t live in a protective case all the time both the lens and the touchscreen are susceptible to any flying debris: this isn’t so much of an issue if road cycling, or not-very-extreme mountain biking is your bag, but for the more extreme riders out there it’s definitely something to consider. And so to that end, GoPro has released the Super Suit hou...
