Both of these drones feature a similar folding design, GPS positioning, ultra-long flight range and stabilized UHD camera, but which one is the best for your money? Maybe FIMI’s product range is far behind DJI’s product diversity but they continuously try to surprise the RC community with new exciting gears. The ‘Standard’ 2S LIPO pack has 7.2V 2400 mah and provides up to 30 minutes of flight time, the ‘Pro’ 2s LiHV pack has 7.7V 2250 mah and allows 31 minutes of airborne time. Its DJI rival is powered by a 2S/2250 mAh battery which in optimal conditions provides 31 minutes of flight time.
Priced for only $199 the new Kai One drone seems to be an affordable Mavic Air 2 alternative. In order to allow stable hovering in any environment (outdoor and indoor), the GPS (satellite) positioning is paired with optical flow positioning (OFP). Thanks to the fail-safe return to home (RTH) function, in case of remote controller signal loss or low flight battery voltage, the KaiOne Pro drone will return autonomously to the take-off point. Starting with March 23, the Kai 1Pro can be ordered from Banggood with a starting price of $199.99.
