Brushless Motor Drone – JJRC X17 Foldable Quadcopter FPV 5G wifi GPS Dual HD Headless Mode RC Drone
Product Details:
- Adjustable 6K 5700*4275P 5G wifi HD Camera, 5G wifi high-speed image transmission(166ft-200ft) without delay, enjoy real-time images through App; Professional 6K anti-shake camera with 110° wide angle can adjust 90°.
- The quadcopter can take off at a max altitude of 1,000 meters and provide smooth HD video at 25 frames per second.
- The battery life is about 30 minutes, with a multi-battery style. The Drone grants more than enough time to compose the perfect shot. Your footage is stable even when flying along a windy coastline or high above an alpine forest.
- With optical flow and GPS position, the camera drone could hover more stable and achieve better performance in precise location and photography. Built-in the Return-to-Home function for a safer flight, the Drone will automatically return to home precisely when its battery is low, or the signal is weak when flying out of range, never worrying about losing the Drone.
- Brushless Motors – More powerful and much less noisy, brushless motors also improve the wind-resistance at high altitudes. They could stay fast and reliable even in tough weather conditions. Plus, engines have a longer period and save you from motor maintenance.

I purchased the drone after buying a smaller cheaper one. The cheaper one was difficult to control. The reason I wanted a drone was to check the condition of my roof which is too high for ladders and as I had two slates come loose. The photos were to get a quote for repairs. My garden has three telephone lines crossing it this meant I needed a calm day and accurate control. I got everything together and lifted off. A slight wobble stabilised and gentle movement of the joysticks allowed me to navigate above the obstacles, rising higher and heading for the roof 4 floors up was a little nerve racking, but the T35 behaved well, by moving the drone over the ridge I managed to take a number of photos and rather than use the return home due to obstacles I flew it with the controls. I was relieved that I had successfully done what I set out to do. I can highly recommend this product, although there were two landing legs that were broken in the carton, they do supply spares so no big issue. Not all the broken pieces were in the package so this looks like a rare case of packing in the factory. The camera is easy to control with the ability to control its vertical position from the controller, horizontal is controlled by positioning the drone by rotating it. Good points, stable, good visual appearance, easy to control with speed setting, distance setting, ability to set points to travel under gps location setting. Only one thing that would make this an exceptional drone would be object avoidance. But that would increase the price, but it is the latest technology that is now appearing in the area of safety for drone users. I have yet to use the other features, follow me, return to home, draw the dot (placing markers on a map for the drone to travel to, way points). Video storage on SD card, I did 3D print a new phone holder as my giant Nexus 6 was a little too large in its protective bumper case. Without the case the clip presses the power and volume buttons. My Pixel 2XL refused to provide video, this is a common issue with some phones. Therefore, it makes sense to use an old phone as you don’t need to tie up your usual handset to act as monitor and for GPS provision. The drone only uses 2.4 gighertz, not the latest 5ghz. I also printed some propeller caps in bright green plastic.

This is my first drone and I am quite happy with it.
It took some patient to put tiny propeller screws but this is done only once so it is not a big deal.
Once the app is downloaded on the phone it guides you how to calibrate compass and GPS which is very helpful if you haven’t done it before.
By default T35 has a beginner mode which will stop you from going to far and losing it. This gives you some confidence as a beginner.
There is a button for automatic taking off, which will lift the drone at height about 1m and stay there and wait for your further instructions from thumb joysticks. I found this also very useful as a beginner because the first time you use it you don’t know how high and fast it will go if you push the joystick.
I found headless mode as a very good feature. Without that as a beginner I would crash the drone by now. This will match your directions with the drone, so you avoid mixing left and right like in normal mode.
There is a return to home button which will land your drone back to a starting point in case you get confused with controls. This will save you as a beginner also many times. This functions (return2home) is activated also when a battery level is too low so you don’t need to worry from drone falling down because of power loss. If you want to land your drone by your self when battery level is critical you can do so by checking the battery level from the phone app or from the lights on the drone — 2 indications will make sure you don’t miss this information.
Battery has a similar capacity of your phone, so to recharge it with the same charger it will take the same amount of time — about 4 hours in my case. If you use your laptop as a charger you will probably double the time needed. The flight duration lasts about 15 minutes, but experience of time is different when you are flying 🙂
I have attached one picture using this drone so you have an idea of the quality. This is the only reason I am giving 4 stars for this drone, otherwise this is a great choice. I was thinking to buy a small one first to practise but this design with so many safety features gave me exactly what I needed. As a beginner I haven’t utilised yet fully the capabilities of this drone and it will be challenging to switch off the beginner mode in some point.

First impressions of the Potensic T35 are positive. Build quality looks to be sound with good quality plastics used. It would have been nice if the drone had been packaged in its own carry case, to help with transportation (as this is quite a large item).The set up instructions weren’t perfect but were clear enough to follow: nonetheless, you will need someone with a very steady hand when inserting the fixing screws to secure the propeller blades.
Despite the fiddly bits, I was impressed with the first test flight. The downloadable app gave well presented information: optional controls, a live feed, and a good gps link with the drone. The drone responded well on the default beginner mode with the ‘follow me’ and ‘return to home’ modes also working with some accuracy. Battery flight time was not far off a respectable 15 minutes. The camera images were sharp but quite dark on a dullish day, so better light conditions are probably required for decent results.
All in all, (after only a week and 3 flights in) I have been impressed with the purchase. Granted, this will not have the sophistication of an expensive DJI drone but that would be comparing apples with oranges. The Potensic T35 is a fraction of the price and (at the point of writing this review) an ideal choice for a newcomer to the hobby.
