Appearance

Hubsan X4 H107D has a completely redesigned design with curved shapes, it looks very nice. The plastic of the case is thin and flexible, yet strong enough to withstand serious accidents.

* Rotor guards for Hubsan X4 H107D.

Battery

The Hubsan X4 H107D quadcopter is equipped with a 520mAh single-cell lithium-polymer battery. The battery itself is hidden in a kind of box. Removing and installing the battery is carried out as in expensive UAVs, which is convenient in itself. At the same time, this fact negates any upgrade of the stock battery to a more efficient one. According to the specification, it provides a flight duration of no more than 7 minutes. In practice, with a mixed piloting style, this time was no more than 5 minutes. Battery charging time does not exceed 60 minutes declared by the manufacturer.

As a disadvantage, the default battery charger is X4 H107D the drone itself actsthe "Battery Pack"

The drone activation button is located at the bottom of it. Switching on and off is realized with a classic long press. Nearby in the center is the antenna of an analog video transmitter operating at a frequency of 5.8 GHz.

Camera

According to the specification, the Hubsan X4 H107D quadcopter has a built-in HD camera on board that performs photo / video recording in a resolution of 1280 × 720p. In practice, the video quality deserves respect and generally meets the stated requirements. However, in our opinion, there is a little lack of sharpness. The quality of the photo is poor. Photo / video recording is performed on an SD memory card, which is pre-installed in a separate slot on the quadcopter

It is worth noting that it would be superfluous to find fault with the quality of shooting in the case of the Hubsan X4 H107D and any other analogue, since the main purpose of the camera for these models is far from shooting, but high-quality FPV flight.

Control panel

The Hubsan X4 H107D comes with a classic control panel with a built-in 4.3 "monitor, based on the H901 hardware. Power is supplied from 4 AA batteries. Provides FPV distance of up to 100 meters in an interference-free area . In a metropolis, this distance will be reduced by at least two.

Test Drive

UAV niches, the low weight of the drone affects. Wind resistant. The operation of the gyroscope significantly simplifies the control of the quad. The barometer's altitude hold function works without comment, beginners will appreciate. The flight time with the camera turned on and the mixed piloting style was 4.5-5 minutes.

In the test, it was revealed that when the connection is lost, the quadcopter does not fall, but continues to fly!

Price

On well-known Internet trading platforms, the Hubsan X4 H107D quadcopter is sold at a price of $ 80 - 113.
