Build and Design
The Ruko F11 Pro has a foldable design which makes traveling really easy. It has a rectangular body that measures 17.5 by 15.9 by 3.2 inches when it is unfolded. In his folded status, it measures 7 by 4 by 3.2 inches.
This is quite a big drone, it weighs a bit more than 520 g, you will have to register it with the FAA. The high-quality plastic casing keeps the drone light weighted and safe if there is a crash. It has some beginner features like the low-speed setting, so even if you are a rookie you will enjoy flying this aircraft.
The drone also has brushless motors, which is always a good choice. These are some powerful motors that do not overheat even when you fly it for the entire battery time. These are also more quiet motors and they require less care and maintenance than a brushed one. Because of the power that these motors give, the drone has about 7 levels of wind resistance.
Battery
With the standard package, you get two high capacity batteries, each of them is 2500mAh. They are intelligent batteries that will alert you when the batteries are running low. Each battery gives you around 30 minutes of flight time (depending on the environment and your flight style), so you will be getting 60 minutes of flight time top. The charging time for each battery is 210 minutes.
Camera
The F11 Pro is built with a 4K camera. You can adjust the camera angle by 90 degrees up or down with the remote controller. You can do this even in mid-flight. The overall ultra HD quality of the pictures and the videos are very good. The videos are well contrasts because the color is captured in vivid detail. With a 120-degree field of view, you can capture a wide range with the camera.
This drone also has 5GHz FPV capability, but for that, you will need to download the Ruko app on your 5G capable phone. The range for the FPV live transmission is 500 meters.
Functions
- GPS Function
Having a GPS function on your drone can give you a lot of benefits like you do not have to worry about vertical control. You concentrate only on capturing your videos and photographs. The GPS can lock the drone to a height to hower in that place and keeps it stable until you give it another command.
- Speed modes
There are three-speed modes on the Ruko F11 Pro. There is a low, medium and high-speed option. Be aware that the high-speed setting will consume more battery. The maximum flight speed of this drone is 43km/h. For better control, try the low and medium speed.
- One key takeoff and landing
This is another useful and beginner-friendly feature. With this button, the drone starts either to take off or to land. This can save you from a lot of headaches.
- Point of interest
You can select a point of interest from the map on the app, and the drone will start to go in that direction.
- Orbit mode
You can select an object and the drone will circle that point at a radius of 100 meters. The drone will keep the camera pointed at the selected object giving you nice and cinematic footage.
- Follow Me Mode
With this mode you can select an object and the drone will start to follow him, this way you can capture yourself or anything else without worrying about the control.
