The SJRC F11 is a 5G brushless quadcopter that allows for longer flights from a distance perspective and from a battery life perspective too. The full flight time of this quadcopter is meant to be 25 mins so we will have to see if that is accomplished or not.
In this very long video we unbox the quadcopter first, looking at the design of the quadcopter, then gazing onto the brushless motors, turning our head to the transmitter and giving a nod to the manual as well as accessoires that come with it too. Then we take to the skies for a savage flight, a bit of waypoints as well as some full screen raw video footage, a flight over the trees and then to some speed tests in the various speed modes. There is only one question i have; will this quadcopter cut it?

Now then… If I was to buy one of these F11 quads.. Do I or will I have to piss about with my phone all the time before can take off buddy? If so may just purchase another Hubsan 501s as will have spare battery from crashed one
Main common problem is the camera
I dropped mine in the river … there was too much wind and i hit a branch coming in way to low … i ran to it and fished it out of the water after being submerged for a good 30 seconds … opened it up and put the components in front of the dehumidifier for 24 hrs .. put it back again … works like a charm !
Great review. I have this drone and really like it. I haven’t tried the fancy features but am successfully using it to take roof pictures for conversion into 3d for solar quotations.
I tried to start my drone and the back two motors don’t spin and it is only the second time starting the drone. Help!!!
Thanks JD! I just received my F11 yesterday. Don’t know if they play soccer (football) with these boxes because mine was all banged up too… but the packing was great and everything works. Mine also went on back order but I texted the support dept. and it was resolved immediately and shipped the next day to USA. Took about three weeks to get here. I would have ordered from USA but the options I wanted were only available in China.
The videos I took yesterday looked more like 720p, but it was in shade. Could not tell the difference between SD and iPhone. Looks like it works much better with an iPhone. Except for the gesture modes, the features seem to work on mine.
Also, seems to hold very well in the wind.
I enlarged the manual by taking and printing a picture of each page. 🙂
More later.
BTW, it is a US$150 UAS so saying it is not as good as a Mavic (US$ 1000 to 1400) by some of your commenters is a bit disingenuous and not a fair knock on the F11. It is an amazing bargain! I plan to have both. 😉
Will a IPhone 5s work with this quad? How about just flying it without a phone?
Hi have you flown the Bugs 4 yet I would love to know your verdict against the F11.
Thanks JD for an excellent review. Was in a dilemma on the choice between Bugs MJX B5W and this F11. After seeing your review, I would definitely go for this F11 ; seeing that my preference is on its solid build quality, portability, good video & camera and flight stability.
Thanks JD for an excellent review. Was in a dilemma on the choice between Bugs MJX B5W and this F11, but after watching your review, I would most likely go for this F11 ; seeing that my preference is based on its solid build quality, portability, good video & camera and flight stability. All these at an affordable price of course.
Good review JD Quad. A realize a lot of the features don’t work as advertised but that wouldn’t be a deal breaker for me. If I wanted to have those features I’d just use my Mavic Pro. I’d use it as a beat around quad with decent FPV in which the GPS can be turned off. A decent fishing quad comes to mind. If I loose it out in the open ocean i wouldn’t be too upset.
Greetings from Florida.
that was starting to track/follow you need to give it time.. mine is the same have patience.
Recomended
its just an amazing drone simple
really cheap and loyal when flying
great video mate
What’s the problems with this drone? Some people say camera problems and its software glitches should have been solved till now… Thinking to buy it… Tell me the problems you face?
In the other reviews i watch, all features of the drone is working. Its indeed a good FLYER and very good built. Anyway GOOD REVIEW, cheers mate! ??
These low budget drone r fun because if they crash and burn no fail ??
PERFECT REVIEW..❤️
Very nice information video my friend….
Very good job
Best this drone
How much money I pay in which I buy drone
What is a price of these drones
I believe it is incorrect to say that the drone only works with 5G phones. My phone is 4G and it works with this drone. It’s just that the drone can use 5G features if your phone has them. If it were true that 5G only works with 5G, then 5G phones could not communicate when only 4G cell towers were available. Which is not the case.
I have no interest in gesture modes, but a couple of other reviewers have tried it and it worked (sort of) for them. I think that the manufacturer needs to do a little work on this feature. Good review, thanks a lot. I just got one of these drones and seeing someone use it helps.
You haven’t touched the lens enough.
Hi, great review, thanks. How do I know if my phone is 5g capable, I want to buy this drone.?
Surely if this battery had only been charged ONCE, it’s not going to give you a full cycle time until it’s been CHARGED at least 10 times ?
looks ok jd
Oh one last thing for those who own it….you can drop your 1080p vids into Google Pics and use edit/crop tool to stabilize the video….not quite EIS but final product is close! Neat trick to clean it up…
Good review mate, but I dunno, I’ve seen plenty of other reviews get all of said features to work. I suppose this could speak to inconsistent build quality….especially now that it has become very popular…and they likely are not keeping up with production….hence the back order issues we see lately. I mean many times a year in you will see the popular birds rebranded by other companies….if I saw correctly…this one or the Z5 is being rebrands by Hubsan so they can have a foldable drone…..as for price…we here in the States are actually seeing the effect of 25 percent tariffs since imposed back in FEB….price on everything on BG and Gearbest is up slightly. Shame…it makes folks waver on purchases. By and by if you do have something more expensive like a Mavic…this is a decent training drone to try things out (albeit at closer ranges)…I use a X5 Epik to practice in confined spaces like tween trees and over the river to practice the shots first. Cheers and keep up the good work…
Mine should be here soon. Can’t wait to test! ?✔???
An excellent review JD, I like it, the camera is nice, it’s strong enough to carry a payload, and the GPS works well, a nice quad buddy, well done on this one ?????
Great Video, and Nice Quad ….trying to get as many Reviewers to look into more Quads like this the SJRC F11 ….that being said …… How about a Comparison between the ZLRC Beast SG906/CSJ-X7 vs MJX Bugs 4W ,as they both should have better Cameras, and Video than SJRC F11 …… i am interested to see which of these Quads will be the New King for this Sector of the market……. the SJRC F11 has Great Features, and i think Companies are trying to improve upon it’s model…… Thanks for all your Videos!
Seems like a good flyer. Feature packed isn’t good if they don’t work. Good flight time and camera footage looks pretty good. Great review JD
Great review JD ??
Awesome in depth review Mr JD! It is indeed a very nice flyer, and has a bit of get up and go too. Just a pity those features don’t work as advertised, at all I should say! Flight time is nice too. Thanks for uploading mate : Big thumbs up for honest review ???
Hi jd, cool looking drone definitely. Another great area too, haha to be honest throughout the video I just kept thinking how cool would it be to race some rc boats there and film that with a drone lol.. happy rcing bud ?
I like this drone; a good flyer and long battery life.
Nice review.
create unboxing create flight good looks but why the functions do not work??
looks ok jd
Please don’t laugh as I am new to this. But what does it mean “headless mode?”
I just found this video. I heard there is a version of this drone known as Pro. What is the difference? Is this a good one for a beginner? Thanks for the video
отличный аппарат брал тут
