Look out, DJI ! There's a fresh kid on the block! At the TechCrunch Beijing seminar today, fellow Chinese mini drone with camera (visit their website) manufacturer Ehang teased its upcoming hexacopter before its Kickstarter kick off next month. As the company's keeping most of the specs under wraps, the reps does reveal that this yet-to-be-named machine is very light thanks to its full carbon fiber content body, and it will manage a whopping 5km radius range with a airfare time of around 30 to 40 minutes per fee. Best of all, this drone will evidently have a maximum load weight of 10kg. That's four times approximately what Amazon's delivery drone can handle, and double that of DJI's recently launched Spreading Wings S900 ; but its believed $5,000 price tag isn't as attractive.
Curie, a fresh button-sized computer for smart clothes, arrives away later in 2015 and includes Bluetooth radio as well as the latest from Intel's Quark line of low-power chips. Intel's chips so far have not made significant inroads into wearable gizmos such as fitness bands or smart wrist watches. One tap on the DJI pilot software on your iPhone (or Google android) and the Phantom 3 soars up to pre-defined level unless directed where you can travel. The customizable handheld transmitter is exactly made to allow control of the Phantom 3 with ease and power. The GPS-based navigation system is very useful to ensure airline flight stability and easy shoots.
Navigation: When you are trying to fully capture high quality video tutorial and photographs, sometimes you will need help. That one will do that by automatically soaring it for you. One more thing to consider is security. I wouldn't feel self-confident that your camera would be there 2 hours later if you we're leaving it in a general public place. If this is actually the case you will need to plan your entire day around sitting down with the camera. Even if money is not an issue its the video footage you lose that can be a frustration. The Proto X is one of the smallest drones on the market on the planet. They have 3 gyros, 3 accelerometers, 4 electric motor rate controllers and a radio receiver all shoved into a little PCB mother board about how big is a quarter. Next thing is to mount all four motors: Four screws per motor and Loctite on each will prevent unwanted vibrations from loosening their hold.
A camera is another aspect many newcomers tend to underestimate. Although even cheaper models come with a low quality camera, it will most likely not give you the desired final result you want - amazing, breath-taking aerial photos. So before it gets awkward be kind to yourself and get a drone that is compatible with a GoPro. And buy a GoPro. Even simple GoPro models will provide you with a far greater result - wonderful fullHD frames. On an advantage side you can use the camera everywhere, including underwater.

I'll preface my impressions by stating that I discovered to fly over a Phantom, and have flown one for most hours, which means this is what I am used to. Yuneec made the Typhoon fairly easy to take a flight. I had fashioned a few minimal wobbles the first time, but this may be because of my previous Phantom experience. One of these is that, by default, the Typhoon won't travel within 26 ft of you (or, really, the transmitter).
The 3DR Single makes flying fun with its game inspired controller. Drive button controls enable you to quickly start saving so you will never miss a shot. Few models will offer this much ease of use. Two very powerful pcs allow that one to be smarter than the rest. Having built in computer systems allows this it to be easily manipulated and keep you from those dreaded accidents.
