Reviews
14 Hubsan H117S Zino
This new foldable quadcopter from Hubsan represents
amazing value for money, coming in at less than a third the
price of the DJI Mavic ranges. The folding design makes it
convenient and compact, and comes with a 4K camera that
Shaun Garrity put through its paces
36 Hirobo SDX 50 SWM FL-II
This is the latest Sceadu model from Hirobo running on nitropower
that benefits from a number of updates, yet remains
true to the brand’s heritage in terms of build quality, looks
and flight performance
44 DJI Smart Controller
To improve performance and maximise potential, owners of
a Mavic 2 or other aircraft equipped with OcuSync 2.0 can
use DJI’s new Smart Controller that features a 5.5-inch builtin
screen for clear and bright images even in challenging
conditions. Tom Stacey grabbed his Mavic 2 Zoom and
headed straight to the local flying field
