RukoU11MINI Drones with Camera for Adults 4K, 70Mins 2 Batteries, Under 250g, Camera Drone with GPS TOF 9800FT Long Range Auto return for beginnerGlobal Recycled StandardGlobal Recycled StandardGlobal Recycled Standard

This is my first drone (age 40) I have no experience flying this or the rc planes my boys have. It was so easy. No crashes. It has a great landing auto pilot thing that eliminates any hard landings.I really bought it in hopes of good video quality. Winner!! Fantastic clarity and live stream.Super fun to fly. Way under priced for what I got.Plus with other company bans in the news, this was a clear choice to make. A++

First time drone purchaser. This drone has been AWESOME. My son loves it. It responds well to controls, and flies fast and high. The video is good quality. It has an auto-return feature that works great and kicks in automatically when battery is low.There's a beginner mode to limit how far and high it can go; a cine mode designed for smooth video; and sport mode for flying fastest. The functionality has been incredible. The battery lasts 'a long time' according to my son and doesn't take too long to charge.We are having an issue with the second battery, and so far customer service has been very responsive and says they'll replace it.Although we don't have another drone to compare this one against, it has been a super fun, and an eye-opening experience in terms of what these little drones can do. We love it.

Honest Review: This is my third Ruko drone over the last couple of years (f11, f11 pro, and now f11 mini). They offer a product similar to the big brand in drones (DJI) at a much more affordable price point. They are the KIA of drones. My review is more of a 4.5 starts out of 5.For this particular drone (likes): I like the compactness of the drone. I've attached pictures of my hand for reference. I would think I have average sized hands for a man. This is a very fun drone to fly, it is very snappy and quick compared to my larger F11 pro drone. I thought it was easy to setup, just make sure that you follow the manual and download the correct ruko app from your appstore. The takeoff/landing was very accurate, and this drone has the camera look down to avoid obstacles while doing it. The case is very nice, and will keep the drone protected. The value that you get for the price is very good (extra battery, case, etc) that is sometimes absent on other brands. Ruko customer support has always been helpful in resolving things if you do encounter an issue or have questions about their products. They are the Chick-Fil-A of customer service in the drone industry.Dislikes: This drone does not have a gimble for the camera. Images and videos are going to look shaky because of that fact. If you own a business (roofer, realtor, landscape photographer etc) this would be a good drone for taking pictures of stationary objects. This is NOT a drone for taking videos of kids riding their bike (You need to get the F11 Pro with the gimble).I hope this review helps. Thank you for taking the time to read.

For how cheap it is, it’s a great little starter drone. Flies perfectly fine, easy to understand and setup. The camera resolution is okay but not great, and is has no video stabilization, so it’s more of a toy with a camera than a drone that will give you useful shots. But again…. Cheap and works great for newbies.

This is a great mini-drone for beginners!Its small size doesn’t require an FCC drone transponder.The quick start instructions are clear and easy to use. I flew it in about 10 MPH winds with gusts to 16MPH base as measured by my local weather station. Despite the small size, the drone compensated for the wind very well and flew with a little, but very manageable drift, even for a beginner flyer.This is very easy to go from package to flight, main steps are to make sure you charge at least 1 or 2 of the drone batteries, and the controller.The remote connects to your phone through a small cable inside the phone bracket. The installed cable is USB-C, but there are other cables for micro-USB and Apple Lightning. The remote side is USB-C.Once connected to your phone, you authorize a data connection and for Apple at lease, access to your photos library to save photos directly. I didn’t use and it doesn’t require a micro SD card, but one can be put in the drone for direct storage.The stabilized camera is absolutely required for good shots and video. This does exceptionally well and easily compensated for drone movement caused by wind gusts. The 4K camera provides excellent photos.The remote flight controls are simple and easy to learn.The package includes spare prop blades, screws and a small screwdriver, three drone batteries with USB-C charging cables, and spare joystick knobs. The normal set is stored in the bottom of the remote when not used.This is an excellent package in a very nice carrying case which easily stores the drone, batteries, and all accessories.This is my 4th Ruko drone - their customer service and support is outstanding! They quickly respond to any concerns or questions, and all their drones work very well, similar to this one. You do have to download a new Ruko Drone app for this new drone series (U11). I didn’t hesitate to buy from them again when I was looking for a smaller drone.
