XK X251 Whirlwind Mini Brushless Drone Flight Test Review

This is one of the smallest and lightest brushless motor quadcopters currently available. Yet its light weight combined with powerful brushless motors help make it an amazing flier. Find it here http://www.banggood.com/XK-X251-With-Brushless-Motor-3D-6G-Mode-RC-Quadcopter-RTF-p-1038369.html?p=RB0922217402201307U3

Pro’s
– Brushless motors! More power for its weight and less likely to require maintenance.
– Varied levels of flight control, from full stabilization with angle restriction, stabilization with no angle restriction, no stabilization with angle restriction, and no stabilization with no angle restriction. Yes, with practice you should be able to do loops and rolls with this 🙂
– Good quality controller/transmitter.
– Great range at close 300 meters (but this little quadcopter starts to get very hard to see at half that range ;-).
– Amazing flier, with plenty of punch, maneuverability, and speed.
– Total weight only 214 grams. A brushless motor quad that does not require FAA registration!

Con’s
– It’s still fairly new. Spare parts and spare batteries are not yet available.
– NOT suitable for beginner fliers. There’s just too much power in these motors for a beginner to safely handle.
