This ESC is not the best or most advanced on the marked, but it is very good and very reliable. The filtration is good, certainly enough to be able to run your camera and VTX from battery power without too much electrical noise.Their plastic protection case is great to protect them from prop-strikes. For their price they are definitely worth considering.

I really like this FC. With the ESC pads in the corners they are very easy to solder. All other solder pads are easily accesible and well placed (camera pad in the front, buzzer pads in the back, where you need them, ...). I really like the possibility to choose the voltage for the camera and VTX and the fact that it is 9V, which means that you can use these pads when flying 3S batteries, without the risk of loosing power when the battery sags a bit. The only small issue I have with this FC is that there is no second inverted UART for the telemetry from the radio reciever. So, I had to solder a wire on my R-XSR's very tiny univerted telemetry pad to make that work. Not a big deal, but would have been easier if I din't have to do it.

A really fun little flyer. It flies great out of the box, it has plenty of power and it is well constructed. The only downside is the light sensitivity and quality of the camera, which is really not great at all, but flyable.

Good power resistors. But do not expect to run them at 25 Watt without additional cooling, they will get very very hot (well above 200 C) and eventually burn out. I mounted 2 of them on large coolers (2.2K/W) and now manage to keep their temperature below 150 C when running them at 15W continuous.

Nice box to fit a 65 mm whoop style quadcopter (brushed or brushless). I like the fact that the drone can be fixed with a little rubber band, which avoids excessive ratteling and potential damage to antennas when on the go. It can also contain a few batteries or spare parts.

These motors are not the greatest or the best you can get, but for their price they are a very good deal. I would recommend them to beginners as they are robust enough to withstand many crashes and if you break one, it is not such a big deal. In the best case you can replace only the part you damaged as there are spare bells, bases and c/clip available for these motors, in the worst case you have to buy a new one. They do not generate a lot of electrical noise, so they are usable on many set-ups. I use the with Kingkong/LDARC 5045 props and that work well.

They work well and can handle the 30W I send through them pretty well. Unfortunately their resistance is quite a bit off, compared to what is written on the resistor. Resistance was measured at 2.5 and 2.6 Ohm, for a 2.2 Ohm rated resistor. That is more than 20% off...

This nice little device just replaces your normal buzzer. So when you loose your quad in the vegetation and the battery is still attached, you can activate it with your normal switch for your buzzer. If you didn't set up a switch, just switch off your remote, that will activate the buzzer due to loss of RC signal. The sound it makes is much louder than the normal buzzer, but that is OK to me. When you loose your quad and the main battery gets disconnected, the buzzer will start to make noise on its own and it will give a loud beep every 4 seconds. I would have preferred every 1.5 or 2 seconds as now there is quite some time between the beeps, which makes locating it more difficult. Of course this was done to make its battery last longer. But if you fly in a restricted area it is not that relevant. I really like the fact that it charges its battery from the main battery, so the battery is always full when it is needed. This will have an impact on the lifespan of the battery, as LiPo's don't like to be fully charged all the time. But it is probably relatively easy to replace the battery (I dind't try). Considering its size it might be difficult to place in more tight builds, but for a standard freestyle quad, that should not be a problem. To switch it of, you can press the button for a few seconds, or connect your main battery for a few seconds. I would definitely recommend this product to every quad owner, who flies in areas where his quad could be lost in case of a crash.

A handy tool to have a rough indication of the thickness or size of things, but do not expect high precision/accuracy for these kind of prices.

It is fun to fly with this thing indoors. It is light enough to avoid damage to walls and furniture but still powerful enough to have good fun. Keep in mind that this drone is using brushed motors which wear out quite fast, much faster than brushless motors. I change my motors after maximally 120 battery packs or when I notice that they start to lack power. If you use motors for too long the quad will be very unresponsive and get through batteries much faster, as old motors use much more current. This high current draw might also destroy the FETs on the flight controller, which you will need to replace...

This board is well made. The only strange thing is that the 3 30A fuses between the main battery lines on the top side of the board are easy to replace (automotive fuses in holder) while the main fuse (next to the power cables) is soldered on the board. I really like the fact that there are self re-setting fuses between the balance lines and the fact that the boards can be daisy-chained if more than 4 batteries need to be charged in parallel.

Easy if you want to charge small batteries with your standard lipo charger. I use it to put the batteries at storage charge when I don't use them for longer time. For the normal charging I prefer to use a dedicated charger for mini-batteries as they charge the batteries individually.

These are good connectors from a well known brand. I really like the top cap, which keeps the wires separated and thus reduces the risk of short circuit in case of a crash. I still heat-shrink the wires, to make them fit thighter through the holes of the cap.

Really handy to avoid that your battery gets ejected from your quad in a crash. It sticks very well to the frame and has good grip on the battery.

They are really handy for many drones with top mounted battery especially if you have to land on a relatively hard surface. They will eventually wear out and rip of the drone in a crash or with a not so soft landing. But the 50 pieces should be enough for many many month of flying...

These standoffs are good. The screw-thread is good, so is the colour and their robustness to crashes.
