After receiving my KingKong Fly Egg 100, and absolutely loving it, I knew I was going to have to give the Fly Egg 130 a try too. These little quads fly very well. Just like the 100mm version this 130 has a carbon fiber lower frame, with twin vertical aluminum upper plates that protect the FPV gear, and FC/ESC stack. This results in a super sturdy assembled quad that can withstand some extreme punishment. KingKong packages these in a nice plastic case that can be used to store, and transport the quad, and its accessories. The package includes the quad, a USB cable for Betaflight tuning, 2 sets of props, a couple spare battery straps, a set of prop guards, a set of motor protectors, and a 350mah 2s battery. You can get these as BNF models with most popular receiver protocols, or as a PNP model ready for your own receiver. Every time I fly my 100mm version I am amazed at just how quiet it is. I expected this 130mm version to be a good bit noisier. Much to my surprise I think the 130 is actually quieter than the 100. The 1105 7000kv motors are very smooth, and the 2840 props provide plenty of punch. The Piko BLX F3 FC, and 10A 4 in 1 BLHeli S ESC work perfectly together, and provide a very nice flying experience. I have owned quite a few KingKong quads, and I have to say that these Fly Egg models are my favorites so far. They are incredibly smooth and stable in flight, and have plenty of zip for park, and backyard flyers like myself. If you're looking for a small brushless quadcopter, these models are definitely worth considering.

The new Floureon K250 is now available, and brings a few very welcome updates to the tried, and true Racer 250 platform. This new version replaces the 2204 motors of the old 250 racer with 2205 2300kv motors. The old Naze32 flight controller has been updated to an SP Racing F3 FC with OSD. The 1000TVL FPV camera gives a clear, and clean FPV feed, and the new Pagoda FPV antenna gives an improved range with better signal quality. One of my favorite things about these quads are the lights. The headlights are very bright, and the LED light bar on the back looks extremely cool during night flights. (See pics) They also aid in keeping correct orientation at distances when flying LOS. These quads are excellent for anyone looking at getting into FPV flight, or those that just want a cool looking drone to fly around the yard, or local park. This K250 Racer is available as a Flysky, or Frsky BNF, or as a PNP model ready for your own choice of receiver. This is also one of the most affordable 250mm quadcopters with the PNP version costing only $121.99 and the BNF versions costing $130.99 |
