Look Like Toys

Walkera Rodeo 150 Mini FPV Racing Drone is just about the size of an adult man's palm.

In the sales package included remote control DEVO-7, one 600TVL camera, one 800 mAh Li-Po battery, and a user guide or manual. The size of the remote control DEVO-7 is almost the same size as the Rodeo 150 Mini.

This remote works with power from the AA battery and is already programmed so you just turn it on and connect it to the drone to fly it.

Oh yes, please note that this remote does not have an on-screen display to see camera catches in the drone. But on the bottom there is a screen to display the coordinates of the drone.

After testing the remote, it's time to see the Walkera Rodeo 150 Mini FPV Racing Drone closer. We were quite surprised to learn that this little drone is made of plastic. Of course we were a bit dubious about his performance and his strength.Walkera Rodeo 150 Mini, Tiny Drone with Extra Strength

Small Drone and Agile

Our guess turned out wrong. Though lightweight and made of plastic, the Walkera Rodeo 150 Mini FPV Racing Drone has power above average. By default, there are three flight modes provided. The first mode can be used to fly the drones at home. The movement is only 2D.

While the other two modes offer 3D movement but without stabilization feature. Therefore we strongly recommend to start flying using the first mode. If it is stable, you can move it to the second or third mode for a more flexible movement.

Equipped with four propellers, the Walkera Rodeo 150 Mini FPV Racing Drone can move swiftly. This drone can be flown for indoor or outdoor use, as long as no wind blows too fast.

Well, interesting from Walkera Rodeo 150 Mini FPV Racing Drone is its strength. When flown and hit the wall and fell several times, the propeller was not damaged. So even with the body. This is where we judge that the solid plastic material used has its own advantages.

The only thing to note is the existence of two antennas that may be easily broken if directly hit the wall or other hard materials.

Equipped Camera and LED

Walkera Rodeo 150 Mini FPV Racing Drone with camera and an LED on the front side. The camera can be moved while taking a picture. While the LED on the front is useful to help illuminate the area during dark conditions.

Unfortunately, the included camera does not have manual focus feature. This means you can only record in accordance with the standard only. So even with the quality of the camera is mediocre.

This could be quite reasonable because the Walkera Rodeo 150 Mini FPV Racing Drone is not a professional drone for shooting needs.Walkera Rodeo 150 Mini, Tiny Drone with Extra Strength

In the sales package, Walkera Rodeo 150 Mini FPV Racing Drone is priced Rp 3.699.000 is accompanied by 800 mAh battery. For a drone, the capacity is small. The first time you use it, you have to fill it in about an hour.

In full condition, this battery is only capable of flying the drones for seven minutes. Therefore we have to buy additional batteries if you want to fly longer.
