Hello Everyone,
Today, I have Ohuhu's RC Explorers Quadcopter for review. This product can be found by visiting the following link: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B01F8MWWFU #Copter
Ohuhu's RC Explorers 2.4G 4CH 6-Axis Gyro Quadcopter Drone
with Camera is a very lightweight unit that comes with everything you need to
get up and running right out of the box. The contents of the box include the
following: quadcopter, transmitter, copter blades (8 total), blade protectors
(8 total), 2 batteries, USB charging cable, camera, landing skid, card reader,
screwdriver, user's manual, warranty card, and 2GB micro sd card.
The quadcopter's specifications are as follows: Dimensions: 12.4"x 12.4"x 3.0", Battery capacity: 3.7V 600mAh Li-poly, Charging time: 90-100 minutes; Flight time: 7minutes, Flight distance: 100m, Charging way: Via USB cable, Operational mode: headless mode, Function: fly forward/backward, left/right sideward fly, turn left/right, 360° 3D eversion, throw flight, video/photo taking, fine tuning, SD card memory: 2GB, and Camera pixel: 2.0 MP.
The quadcopter lights up green on the front two arms, and red on the back two arms. These lights will stay solid until the battery starts getting low, then they will start to flash rapidly. The copter does take a little bit of getting used to and practice if you are inexperienced in flying a drone/quadcopter. The copter is quite fun, but I just wish the battery lasted longer than 6 minutes (even though it is listed as 7, 6 was the average for me). The good thing is that two batteries are included, so you can charge one while using the other, and keep swapping them out. As noted, you should let the circuitry of the quadcopter "rest" for approximately 10 minutes or so before swapping batteries, so that the components do not get overheated and fry. I do wish that the manual would have been a bit more specific on how to recharge the battery. The USB plug has 4 holes instead of the standard 2, so it was a bit interesting trying to get the connections to fit just right. On the end of the USB, once the battery is charging, you will see a small red dot that gets brighter as the copter's battery is charging. Once it is finished charging, the red circle of light will be easily visible. If the copter's battery is very weak or completely drained, this red circle will be very hard to see or non-existant. I wish that the protectors for the blades were packed a bit differently, as the way they are currently packaged and shipped, you have to very carefully bend the protectors backwards, otherwise the blades will hit them when trying to spin. Overall, this is a very nice quadcopter, and the price point is good for someone who is looking for an entry level copter/just starting out with flying them. I have no prior experience before receiving this copter, and it was fairly easy to learn to navigate. The only thing I will say in regards to pets, is you might want to try this out when they are not around, or can't get into the area you are flying the copter in. I have a German Shepherd/Border Collie and she does not like the sound of the blades spinning.
