Product Information

We know a team that does cover these machines, head on over to Flite Test to see all about RC airplanes. Wrap up So it is suitable for beginners and experts alike, and provides good entertainment at all skill levels. I'm old, and my reflexes are not up to all the possibilities of the aeroplane mode or aerobatic features, but my friends who are skilled in those arts report that it is an excellent multi-mode aircraft that could use a bigger battery. If you are a beginner, fear not. This has auto take-off and landing! If you are an expert, try the high speed mode! Carefully!

Die Steuerungssoftware ist prima und ausgereift. Das Smartphone zeigt alle wichtigen Daten an und erlaubt den Swing im Detail zu konfigurieren. Unlike most of the other fixed-wing drones I’ve looked at, the XPlusOne doesn’t have great endurance. You’ll only get about twenty minutes out of it before having to land. That’s basically just an indication that this isn’t a glider and of course that it has four motors.The batteries will vary in life with the mode you are using. Hovering is the thirstiest, so at first, a slow-flying beginner will find that the batteries only go a 'few' minutes. Once you are using the full 'plane mode it becomes both faster and much more economical - a battery will typically last three times longer in my experience. That covers a lot of countryside! You’ll certainly do a double-take when seeing this fixed wing drone for the first time. While the idea of a drone that can both act as a quadcopter and as a fixed-wing craft is a cute idea when implemented in the Parrot Swing, here it’s a deadly-serious feature of a hardcore, fully autonomous drone. The basic science is easy, as a fixed wing craft moves through the air, the wings carry the weight of the craft, the propellers simply propel the airplane forward. This requires far less power to do than to outright suspend the craft in the air by propeller power alone. When the Swing drone detects impact it tends to shut off the propellers and go in to freefall, which sounds a lot worse than it is. Its size and weight mean that when it does fall, there's no real damage upon impact with the ground. It's not really heavy enough to break; it generally just falls like a feather and lands on its side. Be the fastest among your friends. To gain speed, tilt your Parrot Swing! The more you lean, the faster you go. You can also activate Boost Mode to be even harder to catch. Go for it: slalom and avoid obstacles to be the first to get there.

There are other buttons too. The 1, 2, B and A buttons are all pre-programmed patterns that take the drone on a preset path. R1 takes a photo, while L1 performs a U-turn. Pressing-and-holding R2 or L2 will switch the drone to its plane mode, with its propellers and nose facing forwards for fly speeds up to 18.4mph.Bevor man raus geht alle Geschwindigkeiten in den App Settings auf vollgas stellen falls Wind ist kann man gut draußen gegen steuern.

The camera does the job (photos of your house or your head from the air) and it also provides the clever optical location when hovering. This means that it attempts to hover above a fixed spot - enough wind will of course blow it away. But it works well in sensible weather. I hope you don’t read this question on all our posts, as the answer is always the same: The FAA in the United States requires licensing for your flight situation, not your drone. If you will be paid to fly, or will make money off of the photos and videos you capture from the sky, that is a commercial operation, you will need your Part 107 certification. If you are flying for fun, you will require your TRUST certificate. In other words, the Nano Skyhunter is an affordable RC plane platform that you can fit with FPV gear yourself or just fly without a camera at all. Overall the Skywalker fixed wing drone is only for people who are advanced builders and pilots. It’s a cost-effective way to build a custom drone for your needs, but it’s also daunting.Buy It Direct Ltd is a limited company registered in England. Registered number 04171412.
