  • The Ruko F11 GIM2 drone has a 4K camera with 2-axis gimbal stabilisation and electronic image stabilisation, up to 3km of range, brushless motors, automated flight modes and it comes with a controller, 2 batteries for up to a total of 56 minutes of flight time and a hard case.
    I’ll see how easy it is to get started, and I’ll test out all its features to help you decide if this might be your perfect first drone.

    I've had this drone for a couple months; though I've been busy moving, I've also been somewhat intimidated to try it as it's my first drone. I found a couple RUclips videos and written reviews, but man I have to say, your written article and review are WHAT I'VE NEEDED. A well written article and video review which follows, without unnecessary comment, jokes, and other distractions. I have both article and video as reference, and the review is appreciably more of a step by step from power on to advanced options. Excellent video, glad I found your article and video.

      @TheTechnologyMan  Год назад +1

      Thanks I'm glad you liked the video! I'm not sure about the GPS reception - have you tried it in a wide open space. It take a little while for a strong lock. Otherwise I'd contact Ruko support - I hope you get it sorted.

    I have a Ruko F11GIM2. I cannot enable the Orbital mode. I have tried the Photo/Video buttons method.

    • @TheTechnologyMan
      @TheTechnologyMan  Год назад +1

      Do you mean point of interest mode? From video: "hover the drone directly above the object you’re interested in. Then press both the photo and video buttons together to set this position. Use the right direction joystick to set the radius of your circle up to 100m away and press the two buttons together again to start the drone’s flight."

    Question Technology Man route rule have to be set before take off or can it be done while the drone is hovering at 20ft or more, trying to figure out the method of doing this correctly

      @TheTechnologyMan  2 года назад +2

      Thanks. I've not tested the SJRC but from what I understand they're made in the same factory. You seem to be paying a little extra for better support and far quicker delivery.

    @DrJamesKroll 2 года назад

    Does anyone have any good suggestions on optimal landing method for this drone? I'm new to flying. My landings have been awful. It does not want to touch the ground even with left joystick down. It hovers a few inches above. When I cut the power in invariably flips as I guess prop speed is not perfectly uniform when shutting down. Any and all advice appreciated. Thanks!

    • @TheTechnologyMan
      @TheTechnologyMan  2 года назад

      That doesn't sound right - have you contacted Roku? Mine will land without any issues with the auto land functon or jst pulling the stick down.

    Two quick questions? It's made in China of course( alas) But is it from a Chinese Company, or Japanese/ Taiwanese?
    Also, would you recommend this as a worthy, first drone for a novice enthusiast? Thank you

    • @TheTechnologyMan
      @TheTechnologyMan  Год назад +1

      It's made in China. It's ok - its main selling point is it's available off Amazon so you'll get some purchase protection. It's good fun and a decent price for a drone of this size. But would have concerns on getting support after your first year is up.
