A comparison between the FreeX and the DJI Phantom 2. With the FreeX being £199 cheaper and with more features it is the clear winner. Actually for only £70 more than the Phantom 2 you could get the FreeX FPV version with video transmitter for first person view flight and OSD! The FreeX range of quadcopters are available here:http://www.nitrotek.co.uk/rc-helicopters/rc-quadcopters/shopby/skyartec.html

The FPV FreeX comes in a stunning aluminium box with an extendable pull handle for easy transport. On unpacking, all of the components come in their own protective compartment. These include a SkyRc E4 balance charger, USB cable for the firmware updates, propellers, various tools and a high powered 11.1v 5400Mah LiPo battery for a longer flight time even with the extra weight of the gimbal and camera.

The first thing that we noticed was the beautiful pearlescent white large fuselage and larger landing skids to accommodate the built in gimbal. Just like the standard version of the FreeX, The FPV version is nearly ready to fly out of the box. The gimbal is already pre-attached to the quadcopter so all we needed to do was insert our camera, (we have used a Xiaomi camera) attach the propellers, insert the battery, do the compass collaboration and we were ready to go!

Turning the quadcopter on, we are met with the flashing lights under the propeller arms, the usual 2 lights – indicating you are pointing north and that you are connected to the GPS. The gimbal comes to life and a quick click of the button on the gimbal and it is collaborated and is ready to shoot.

The gimbal that comes pre-attached to the quadcopter is a 2 Axis full CNC brushless gimbal. It supports most small cameras including the SJ cameras that we sell and the GoPro 3 upwards (please note that the camera is not included with the quadcopter). The camera is so very easy to attach – just loosen the 2 allen key screws, slide the bar, fit the camera, tighten the screws, plug in and away you go.

Now to the next most important component - the awesome FPV transmitter with full telemetry on-screen display, built-in 5.8Ghz video receiver, and a 95mm LCD monitor!

With the transmitter you are able to control the gimbal with the circular pad enabling you to take photos and videos from better angles. Other features include headless mode capabilities, being able to support a memory card of up to 32GB so that you can store the video footage and the ability to take videos and take photographs at a flick of a switch.

On the awesome OSD LCD display screen, it tells you an abundance of information including; flight time, distance flown, speed, current height, direction and longitude and latitude!!

All in all we are giving the FPV FreeX a massive Nitrotek thumbs up! We cannot wait to get the stock in and release it to all the quadcopter enthusiasts.

You need this plane in your life!! Check out all of its features here: Hubsan H301S

These drones are pretty clever, packed with the latest cutting edge technology. They are used not only by hobbyists for fun but also for professional use, mainly for aerial filming and remote viewing. If you're new to RC drones then here is an introduction to the cool features found on these models:

GPS Automatic Take Off & Landing

With a normal radio controlled helicopter or quadcopter one of the most difficult things is taking off and landing. For beginners it usually leads to crashes. But with GPS automatic take off just arm the system and then select take off. The drone will automatically take off and hover without any further input needed! Ready to land? You no longer need to carefully reduce throttle while trying to keep the model flat, instead just hit the land switch and the drone will automatically land itself!

GPS Position Hold

No more having to constantly adjust for wind and movement. With GPS position hold you can let go of the controls and the drone will stay hovering in that position. This makes flying so much easier and stable. The GPS module knows where it is so can stay at those co-ordinates even if the wind blows.

Altitude Hold

With industrial grade MEMS sensors and 6 DOF motion control the T380G will also hold it's height automatically with less drift than other drones on the market. Unlike a traditional helicopter or quadcopter the throttle stick is spring loaded as altitude control becomes much simpler. You can just push up to make the drone fly higher and push down for lower but then just release the throttle to hover at that height.

GPS Return To Home On Signal Loss Or Request

The GPS return to home feature is fantastic. The T380 remembers the coordinates that it took off from. If you fly outside the transmitter range or the signal is lost for any reason such as your transmitter batteries go flat then the drone will automatically return to where it took off and land. When the signal is recovered you have the choice to either take over the flight control again or you can just leave it to let it continue and land. Some other drones will not allow you to take control again once return to home is activated which is something to watch out for. You also have the option to enable return to home at any time even if the signal is not lost by just flipping the return to home switch.

Low Voltage Safety

Another great feature that will keep your drone safer. The onboard computer will detect if the battery voltage is getting low and transmit a warning to the pilot to let you know it's time to land. If the battery gets even emptier then the drone will then proceed to land itself to ensure it does not stall and crash.

380g Payload

The T380G is named after the 380 grams maximum payload it can carry. This is more than enough to carry most mini HD video cameras like the Go Pro or Sony Action Cam for high quality recording. The optional camera mount will allow you to easily attach your camera to the drone.

Modular Design

You may have seen some other drones on the market that are enclosed in a white one piece case. Although these may look a little nicer in practical terms they are not as good. If you do have a crash it usually means the whole system needs transferring to a new case but with a modular design like on the T380G just the broken arm or part can be replaced. The parts are made from special high impact material but if you did need to replace any part we stock all the parts for making easy repairs.

Price

We're very confident that you will not find an RC drone with all the features at this price, even drones with less features sell for a lot more.

Be a good guy for once, (well towards the end of the war)... a Russian!!... da!

You will need a new Taigen 2.4g T34/85 hot from deep in the black mountains..... (in china)

A T34 tank purposely upgraded to kill Tiger tanks.

I borrowed this demo version from the guys at NITROTEK for a quick review, might miss something but here it goes.

On getting it out of the box, you could not help but notice the sheer weight and presence of the model. No silly aerial, very highly detailed mouldings, as good as Trumpeter, Taigen really mean business with this one. With Taigen’s quick release top it reveals a very neatly laid out interior, boasting 4.1 black metal gearboxes, fan-assisted 2.4g control module and high volume smoke machine. Metal turret, barrel, hull base, suspension arms, all wheel, tracks, hatches, flashing machine guns and more.. BB firing, with track recoil, Taigen new upgraded high power 2ch sound, and with smoke it looks as good as it sounds!

Lots of neat new things, FULLY ROTATING 360 TURRET! AND REMOTE CHARGING! Yes, what we have been telling them for years!

It performed faultlessly, very smooth and very noisy!.. Got giddy watching the turret 360!.. Absolutely fab, driving and traversing gun across the engine deck! This manoeuvre is just not possible with any other off-the-shelf RC tank.

Comes in winter white, very nicely sprayed by hand, so no two are the same. As I said it’s a demo so no decals or accessories, but was told more metal bits, tow ropes, etc! and hand-painted commander!

This is a must for the serious RC model tank collector.

..modeltankman rating 9/10 !, only because it needs a metal hull top

Take out your Tiger in style!!!
