Review Eachine E011 Mini
Banggood.com
Today I'm wanting on the Eachine E011 "Block Drone". This is a small quad that is another "Inductrix Clone". The headline characteristic that makes it stand out it the top plate has building block / Lego attachments! Also, it comes with a lego-ish mini-figure, that gets to journey the quad like a skateboard. Fun, right? Well, let's get into this overview, and see if this is "simply another clone" or if it will possibly stand out...
Flying
Plug in the battery, and the quad LED's give a sluggish blink. Switch on the remote, and the quad LED's go to a fast blink as they bind, then give steady on once it is able to fly. Give the quad a blip of throttle, and if the mini-fig shouldn't be loaded, the quad will virtually leap into the air. Without the extra weight of the mini-figure, there may be nearly not enough down throttle - it's robust to hover smooth as a result of you are a the very bottom finish of the throttle vary. Add the little man, or different cargo, and it smooths out. Remember those 716 motors? yea, they have the ability! Loaded up, the quad is still very zippy, and climbs comfortable and quickly. Throttle blips are rewarded with nice hops within the air. Flying is clean. The quad does have two "charge" modes, high and low. the small button beneath the throttle switches modes - one press offers a double beep for prime charges, one other press gives one beep for low charges. In low, it moves round easily, and pace / tilt / yaw are straightforward to handle. In High, it get a bit extra spirited. Still simple to control, but will preserve inexperienced persons on their toes as it zips round. Experienced pilots will most definitely want to soar straight to the excessive charges. Overall, the only unhealthy habit I found with the quad is with the throttle low vary. I want it was a bit smoother on the bottom finish, because it appears to cut power usually when I'm descending. And, as mentioned earlier than - flying unloaded, it nearly won't hover, resulting from this.

Battery life
Battery life is nice. I was constantly getting 6 minutes with the inventory battery. One flight, I ran the first 3-4 minutes with the mini-figure, then the final half with out and got a solid 7 minutes flight. Overall, I like the inventory battery, no complaints. I did also fly the quad with some Amazon batteries I bought for my Syma X11. These are 380mah packs, with no printed C-rating. They are solely flying for 5 minutes, with a noticeable decrease in punch. They do fly the quad good, however the stock battery is healthier. As a facet notice, Banggood sells a 5-pack of those batteries, with a multi-pack charger, for about $16.
Mods
So we've got a terrific flying quad, with good battery life, and power to spare, what to do? How about FPV! I had a EF-01 FPV digicam that I had used to FPV a small RC automobile, so I pulled it for the E011. The EF-01 got here with a mounting plate that, as luck would have it, was a precise fit for some unused mounting holes on the highest of the quad. The predominant battery plug for the quad was situated so that it was easy to solder on the digicam power lead, so a few screws later, I was able to fly FPV!

The EF-01 digicam was very close in weight to the mini-figure, so flying efficiency was similar. Unfortunately for me, my digicam died before I may fly it more than a few brief flights (the digital camera already had points from it is automotive responsibility days). for sure, although, I will likely be ordering a new digicam.
Summary
I have had a variety of enjoyable with this quad. It is an efficient flyer, has good battery life, and has loads of power. My kids additionally prefer it - they may add Legos to it and build cockpits and other stuff. The quad can raise a good quantity, however it should run out of energy in a couple of dozen small blocks. With the ducted props, it easily bounces off of stuff when flying, so small bumps do not routinely mean crashes - which is nice for studying to fly. Overall I really appreciated this quad, and give it two thumbs up!
