Mini drone for beginners: Eachine E010/JJRC H36/FuriBee F36 for $12.99

The Mini Drone Furibee F36 is very practical for beginners and indoor pilots. The low price, low weight and robustness make it ideal for the first flight attempts. The mini drone Eachine E010 and the JJRC H36 are almost identical small drones.

Originally Banggood had announced that the E010 would have voice control, which caused some excitement, but nothing can be read about it any more. Instead there is a usual remote control for this size, with which the usual flight maneuvers are possible. The most conspicuous feature is now the exterior of the small drone, which was only found in the form of the (much more expensive) Blade Inductrix.

The advantage of the all-round protected rotors is that collisions with the wall hardly matter, and the (admittedly low) risk of injury is significantly reduced.

As much as it pleases externally in the colors green and red, the technical specifications are actually mediocre. The range is given with 30 meters, the maximum flight time with 5 minutes. After all, the battery is replaceable. Of course, all this has to be evaluated with regard to the price, which is often even less than $20.

In the meantime, the small drone has become one of the most popular Chinese models in the entry-level range or the lower price range.
