I bought my f210 3D 3 months ago and I'm loving it still. Since I have upgraded to the triumph circular antenna and have switched to the dal 5045 tri blade props with a tattoo 1300 75c. With battery upgrade and prop upgrade this quad is even more amazing! Great vid!!
i had that same problem with the lights, i found that unplugging the lights, straightening out the wire then re-attaching fixed the lights. see if that works for you
+TheMighty Thor, great minds think alike, I did this and ironically after doing so, the left-hand indicator now WORKS...but the right-hand doesn't ;o) it looks to be a design issue, the way in which the ribbon cable is poorly wrapped tight around the antenna, not good but at least the replacement is cheap :) thanks for the comment dude, honoured that you're watching my videos!
+SteveO4478, its really easy to remove, just 2/4 screws (from memory) and then the whole light cluster unplugs, literally can be changed in a few minutes.
I have the new cyclone 5046C on my f210. It's hard to tell exactly but I do believe stock props are way faster than anything out there. I've tried all high end dalprop. Very interesting
DroningON.co what is frustrating that's completely my fault is that I spent money on all of these different props and prop nuts. Hunting down proper low m5 prop nuts to find out that OEM props blow away anything else out there. Definitely expected to make progress spending money and experimenting with several different types of props. The newest by dalprop T5046C cyclone are the closest experience to stock prop performance. I suppose we live and learn. Definitely never trust what others say in there reviews. At least some will mislead for whatever reason droningon.co
+mike216ism sadly many fellow reviewed will only ever say that everything is good in order to make sales commission. I pride myself on only ever being honest and letting you guys decide!
Seems awesome, I definitely don't like the build construction on the rodeo 150 compared to the F210 3d or even the baby brother to both the Rodeo 110. The 110 is insane on 2s
Great video. I just received my F210 on Saturday what a great little flyer it is!!! its my first FPV racing quad although i've flown many phantom/blade quads. My 1st flight using FPV today was pretty amazing i've now ordered a mount for my action cam to get some footage. just wish i had some more batteries. Have you bought any extra lipos for this maybe another make that are not as expensive as the walkera ones :) let me know.
+cham0, yes if you watch Part 1 of this review (see my channel) I link to a battery which is a perfect fit, the Turning Graphene 4s 1300mah, hole this helps and happy flying dude!
Thanks +Daddio "Daddio" 66, audio should be in sync (it is for me lol) so try refreshing the video to try again - appreciate the feedback, its a great little quad if you're already flying quadcopters, give Buzzflyers a call and they might do you bit of a better deal, they also have finance plans.
Cool video. I have Runner 250 Pro. Love the drone though. The only issue that I am facing is that the Devo 7 throttle start to accelerate from 60% of the throttle speed. I spoke to many guys and its weird. I even managed to do the curves but I still prefer to have a linear curves. The FPV guy told me its center stick setup. But its still weird to me. If anyone know why or any other solution please do let me know. Thanks
Great vid again! The binding sequence you suggest is spot-on! Will you be PLEASE post your binding process with the Fat Shark Dominator SE? If it's easy enough for me, I will be definately buying the FS-D SE. Will I need to buy any other accessories to bind them both or is the stock transmitter in the F210 compatible? BTW, I bought a DEVO 10 TX(white one) and the range is 10x better and much more reliable than the D7. More confident to go FPV now. Anxiously awaiting your next video...
+Dave Silva, thanks again for your comment and glad that you're still onboard my channel! The process of associating the SE's with the F210 3D was very straight forward for me, as soon as I turned both on, they literally just worked. Both come with a raceband compatible receiver/transmitter and therefore simply tab through the channels on the goggles and you should be able to locate the right one. Alternatively, you can adjust the F210 onboard VTX to choose a specific channel. I have just ordered a module for my SE's which even scans the radio spectrum to show you the best channel to use, I'll post a review of this module as soon as it arrives, pretty cool!
+alvin and julianna badiola this is possible by connecting the F210 to your PC and using CleanFlight to reprogramme it to allow more forward tilt whilst in stabilised mode, but it can be tricky and you must backup all settings before doing so! Thanks for your comments and be sure to SUBSCRIBE!!

+Dave Silva, twitchy isn't it when flying in Advanced Mode! Takes some mastering for sure, but worth flying continually in that mode so that you start to feel comfortable.
loved your video on the rodeo 150 i have it and love it! I have the f210 3d on its way. Now does the f210 3d come with both 3d n 2d propellers In the box it comes in?
+Ian Rice yes it comes fitted with 2-d standard props with the 3D props in the box. Watch Part 1 of this review and you'll see to you're going to get and how to set it all up!
+TheCladi8or, the factory range of this little quad is really good, all you need to do is install a decent antenna in place of the horrible little stubby one, that will significantly improve range.
+Dave Silva, we love the Aomway 3dbi antennas (www.banggood.com/Aomway-5_8GHz-FPV-4-Leaf-Clover-AV-Transmission-RHCP-Antenna-1-Pair-p-961730.html?p=7I14124028655201603T) for fitting onto the aircraft end, they're durable but most importantly, they're cheap and their signal quality is pristine. For the goggles side, we recommend TBS Triumph, you can't beat them but don't fit those to your aircraft because they're expensive to break!
Hi again. Aomway 3dbi antennas: RP-SMA Male or SMA Male? Saw these Triumphs on www.getfpv and for $19.99 oneBay, think they'll work? I think I'll have to buy this SMA Male to SMA Female Coaxial Gold Plated Adapter 5.8G as well? Thanks for your advice! -Dave
+Dave Silva for the F210 you'll need SMA, but avoid putting expensive antennas on your quad unless you're a pro and never crash :) put the Triumph onto the headset. Also check RHCP vs LHCP.
Thanks for your question, I haven't reviewed the Advanced Runner and so can't give a view unfortunately, but the F215 might be a better option if you're looking to stick with Walkera.
In all honesty, the Walkera quads have seen their day I suspect, they just can't compete with quads like the X215 Pro (our latest reviews), and Walkeras use of proprietary components makes them quite silly in terms of spares and repairs. Anyone recommending the Walkera quads in this modern time are probably only doing so because of freebies.
Thanks for the reply. I am going to check out X215 pro. What other good drones would you recommend in the US $300 range. I am looking for something RTF that flies out of the box which I can upgrade later on as I get better. From the flight controller to the motors to basically every component in there.. just basically as plug and play. want to stay away from soldering. What freebies will I get with the walkera?
I have to say...I recently unboxed n flew my quad and I call bs on this video! It is NOT STABLE AS SHOWN OFF THE TABLE! This thing is literally allllllll over the place and from watching this video I wasnt expecting that. I'm a experienced flyer so I quickly gained control but beware....
BS you may call but this comes down to pilot skill in setting it up correctly and flying it. In the review this quad is straight out of the box, nothing changed from any other F210 that you'd buy, therefore if you had stability issues then I'd suggest that you were NOT in stabilised mode...so kindly don't be so rude on our videos, otherwise you'll find yourself blocked.
DroningON ...Ok I do apologize for being rude. Thing is I bought this after viewing your video. N I had all settings to 0 as shown in your video. Still when bonded i throttled n immediately it went on its own. I was hoping for the table lift off u had but instead it went waaaaay off on it's own n I had to pilot it. Again I was just a bit frustrated n I sincerely apologize
Thanks for the apology, decent of you. I have been flying for over 25 years, is this your first quad or have you flown others before? Remember that this doesn't have GPS or optical flow, therefore you have to keep it in position ENTIRELY manually - these are NOT easy to fly. Can you upload a video to show how it flies?
DroningON yes I can! N thanks for accepting my apology. I've flown others before yes. Just wasn't fully expecting to fly full manually...but I'm pretty good at it now lol
Have you ever flown a Racing Quad like the F210 before though? Remember, it isn't a 'drone', its a fully manually flown aircraft - let me know what else you've flown before as that'll help. Cheers
It's an extreme quad. Love the sound of it screaming across the skies !
+Fungus Foong, sounds lovely doesn't it! More videos coming soon of a new 'screamer', watch this space!
I just got mine yesterday , I absolutely love it. It looks so good in person .
+MJamal55 glad that you're pleased, it's a very capable quadcopter but you'll soon want more :)
I bought my f210 3D 3 months ago and I'm loving it still. Since I have upgraded to the triumph circular antenna and have switched to the dal 5045 tri blade props with a tattoo 1300 75c. With battery upgrade and prop upgrade this quad is even more amazing! Great vid!!
Great to hear, that's the good thing, it's RTF out of the box but a few simple upgrades and you can transform it!
i had that same problem with the lights, i found that unplugging the lights, straightening out the wire then re-attaching fixed the lights. see if that works for you
+TheMighty Thor, great minds think alike, I did this and ironically after doing so, the left-hand indicator now WORKS...but the right-hand doesn't ;o) it looks to be a design issue, the way in which the ribbon cable is poorly wrapped tight around the antenna, not good but at least the replacement is cheap :) thanks for the comment dude, honoured that you're watching my videos!
Same here Thor. Do you have a video of you fixing the light issue on the F210?
Dave Silva no i dont, it got fixed when i replaced the VTX board (Video transmission board. all i did was move the cable around alittle
I will try that my right blinker keeps going out this is the 3rd one I have went through!
+SteveO4478, its really easy to remove, just 2/4 screws (from memory) and then the whole light cluster unplugs, literally can be changed in a few minutes.
Nice video. I can really hear the joy and excitement in your voice :)
Haha, its really smooth and speedy, when you see it you'll be grinning too :) :)
It is very heavy for a quad my cheekbone can vouch for that, mine also has a faulty indicator.
I have the new cyclone 5046C on my f210. It's hard to tell exactly but I do believe stock props are way faster than anything out there. I've tried all high end dalprop. Very interesting
+mike216ism it's just a shame that the Walkera props cost more than others :)

Hi! Did you flew everything in zero? Everything stable and no advanced?
Seems awesome, I definitely don't like the build construction on the rodeo 150 compared to the F210 3d or even the baby brother to both the Rodeo 110. The 110 is insane on 2s

Audio seems to be about 3 seconds out of sync to me. Nice demo of this Quad though, I have been saving up to get this quad.

You can fly in "Advanced Mode" as well. Seems to have more angle in that mode. Still trying to master that mode...
+Dave Silva, twitchy isn't it when flying in Advanced Mode! Takes some mastering for sure, but worth flying continually in that mode so that you start to feel comfortable.
Hows the night vision camera on this drone?
loved your video on the rodeo 150 i have it and love it! I have the f210 3d on its way. Now does the f210 3d come with both 3d n 2d propellers In the box it comes in?

Awesome thanx man. Im going to watch that video now
Does this have altitude hold or is it all manual
No altitude hold on this as its a racing quad, these are generally raw and without such autonomy. Hope that this helps!
Is there a way too extend the range on this drone for farther FPV flying?
+TheCladi8or, the factory range of this little quad is really good, all you need to do is install a decent antenna in place of the horrible little stubby one, that will significantly improve range.
Hi. Any recommendations for antennas for better range?
Thanks.

+Dave Silva RHCP I believe.
Thank you
F210 or advance runner?

Are you or family from sweden?
+neil A yes my fiancee is Swedish :)
Very awesome sir
Our drone didn't work since we bought it
Mine wont bind with my controller
My name is Flávio.
I from Brazik
Has the walkera furious 215 made this one obsolete?
