Walkera Rodeo 150 review
In this video review you will see how the Walkera Rodeo 150 flights:
And here another flight test:
This quadcopter drone is very fast and light and has built in FPV so you can use it for races. Anyway it has a smooth and stable flight, so you can also use it just to enjoy a day in the park with your kids.
In any case you will enjoy this little fast drone, if you push the height throttle it will fly up in seconds. Probably it’s more suitable to “expert” pilots than to newbies, because it’s very fast and has a very quick and immediate response to every command you give so you need to know what you’re doing. But if you know how to control it properly, than you will really enjoy your flight, even if just looking into the FPV screen.
The great thing about this quad is that there is absolutely no setup required which makes this an excellent choice for beginners wanting to break into the hobby-grade/racing drone scene. At the same time, if you think this means this quad lacks power, you wouldn’t be more wrong. The Rodeo 150 makes efficient use of the limited power coming from a 2 cell LiPo, and thanks to a 230 gram liftoff weight, punch outs are quite exhilarating. The rodeo has a great camera mount, very easy to adjust, simply move it with your fingers, no tools are required, whats even better is that it stays in place. The camera mount allows almost straight up and down upwards tilt.
