FuriBee F180 180mm FPV Racing Drone Flight Test Review
This racing drone is a good intro to X frame FPV racing drones with its 3S battery. But can take up to 6S batteries for those wishing more oomph. Find it here https://goo.gl/SmbKTg
Pros
– Ready to fly, comes with Flysky i6 transmitter and receiver.
– Stable flier in its stock setup in both angle and acro. Should be a good intro FPV flier with its 3S battery. But includes room to grow using 4S through 6S batteries if more power is desired.
– SPR F3 FCB with beeper, and loaded with Cleanflight 1.11.0
– Comes with 3S 11.1V 1500mah battery, but can be powered up through 6S Lipos. Battery is padded from damage with a bottom plate and cushion.
– Includes BLHeli-S 30A Dshot ESC’s
– 2300kV motors
– 700 TVL camera with 40 channel 25mW/200mW switchable FPV transmitter
Cons
– Apparently no VBAT cable comes with this. Hence, why no LVC warning beeps, and my low battery crash 🙁
– Receiver antennas were bundled internal to the quadcopter under a zip tie. You should stretch them out and shrink tube them to external zip ties for best reception.
– Requires FAA registration.

Hey QC101,
Regarding the two Eachine goggles you were using, which one is better for
“OLD” eyes, like mine?
I would really like to know where you fly these at. Magnificent scenery.
Good review, sure appreciate what you do. I also had to laugh with the
camera angle, that is really the FPV speed control. Keep flying the racers
in acro, no one should practice any type of racing in angle or horizon
mode, makes for bad habits.
A suggestion for you would be to either get a mic you can use while flying
fpv or have your assistant stand closer. it gets really hard to hear you
while sitting in front of the recorder. other than that great reviews!
Looks like this one comes with a nice camera and not much break up with
that 200mw transmitter.
what is the fastest nano quadcopter you have tested? could you post the
link to it please?
nice flight thanks for sharing ✌
“Intermediate flyers like me” I dread to think where that puts me – wannabe
beginner? :)
Great demo as always! .. 4 feet of snow outside here.. not flying anything.
I notice you wear glasses as I do. I discovered something flying little
mini quads around the house that you might be interested in. Mounted my
Echine D2 goggles on my camera tri pod, move myself and chair up close to
the goggles and wow, easily see the FPV with my eye glasses on without
having to take them off. Works fantastic, and i imagine using them outside
will work just as well as i have used this set up right under florescent
lights. Sure saves having to fly with glasses off and the dang goggles on
your head plus you can easily glance at the transmitter or the drone as it
flys by. Give it a try all you eye glasses wearers. lol Happy Flying

I have the JJRC H8d 5.8ghz drone. And I am currently looking for 7.4v
battery’s. Any suggestions on where I can battery’s for this specific
drone? The ones I have ordered don’t fully charge only give me about 7.4v
maximum, but the one I have that works has about 8.3v fully charged
