Fayee Smart Egg Wifi Review

This small multirotor is intended for indoor flights, and for beginner pilots. It is intended for use with a smartphone or a radio remote control (supplied). To facilitate the piloting, it is barded with sensors including an altimetric barometer to manage the height.

Special Beginners

To distinguish themselves from the competition, the conventional propeller shields are replaced by a structure that surrounds the aircraft. Is it effective? Hard to say before you tried! A camera is on board, a VGA model (0.3 megapixel) associated with a wifi video transmitter. The image is sent in real time to your smartphone. Do not plan to fly in immersion, the latency of the wifi is generally much too important for the control in FPV is possible. The Smart Egg Wifi from Fayee will be offered at a little more than 36 € at Banggood (with the port but without taxes), in white or in black.

Additionally, if you need to purchase some rc drone parts, you can search via Banggood website, which is one of the wholesale platform to provide affordable prices, such as xt-60 connector, parallel plug, etc. 

Eachine X73S Review

Eachine's X73 had not left us an imperishable memory, much too fragile among other defects (see here). The X73S is the new version of this device, which proposes a radical change: brushed motors are replaced by brushless! It is 1103 to 10000KV driven by ESPs of 3.5A BLheli which drive quadruplical propellers, all driven by a Naze32 flight controller. The FPV camera is a 600TVL associated with a 5.8 GHz 25 mW and 32-channel video transmitter (compatibility with ImmersionRC Raceband is not indicated), and a dipole antenna.

And…

The 2.4 GHz radio receiver is either a DSMX, a FrSky or a Futaba. Note the DSMX, for compatibility with recent European Spektrum radios, Futaba (a format rarely used by nano multirotors) and the lack of compatibility with the Flysky AFHDS and AFHDS 2A protocols. The recommended battery is a 1S 450mAh 25C, not included in the box. Too bad that compatibility with a 2S battery is not assured. The data sheet indicates a take-off weight of 43 grams - which seems light, the battery is probably not counted in the weighing.

What do you think?

Difficult to erase the memory of the X73, especially as the protections of propellers seem very similar - they were brittle, from the first shocks, on the previous model. With brushless motors, so more power, we can fear damage if they have not been seriously reinforced. ESCs seem to be in the arms. In case of breakage, it is necessary to change the entire frame, including ESC. The fixation of the camera seems the same as that of the X73: it was disconnected regularly in case of shock. A nano multirotor of 10.5 cm of side with brushless motors, it is alluring ... but we ask to see! The X73S from Eachine will be offered from 93 € at Banggood (with the port but without taxes).
