Ruko U11 Pro: FULL Detailed Review of Ruko's Newest Beginner-friendly Drone
Вставка
- Опубліковано 4 лип 2024
- Having recently reviewed their F11 Gim, Ruko reached back out to me and asked if I would also do a review of their new beginner-friendly U11 Pro. This model lacks some of the bells and whistles of their more advanced drones which brings its price down and makes it a great choice for those who are just getting into flying.
I put the U11 Pro through its paces to find out if it really is as great of a beginner drone as Ruko is advertising it to be. Whether you just bought a U11 Pro or you're just doing research, I hope this thorough setup and review video is helpful for you guys!
Here's a link to the U11 Pro on Amazon (not an affiliate link...yet 😉 ):

44:40 Final thoughts on Ruko and the U11 Pro - Наука та технологія
Thank you for the in depth review. I am going to buy one of these drones, please stay safe, and make more vids!!
Thank you for the information. I just received the Ruko.
Ive been flying tshe the u11 pro for about a year now. Actually on my 3rd one 😂 like you said ruko is amazing to work with and super helps. Best tutorial video I've seen on the net and UA-cam. I had some questions that was answered in your video thank you. The biggest issue I had was orbit and way points flights and of course the maps issue again thank you for the amazing info. I look forward to better flights with the new info you covered. Thanks again!
Thanks so much for the feedback @meadisamazing3069! I truly do appreciate it. Knowing the videos are helpful to someone out there is the reason I keep making them. Thanks again!
Great video!! I just got my first drone. I had the same problem with lack of kill switch. I flew the drone in the garage and crashed. One blade arm was stuck on a car tire and the other 3 blade arms were still spinning slowly.
Overall a great drone!
Great video! I learned a lot about new drone. Thanks,
Thanks so much for the review! I have been trying to find the off switch as I have crashed a couple of times and have not been able to stop the motors. Now I know there is not one something I will definitely consider when I upgrade.
Great review
I might have to pick this up been using a Ryze Tello for a little while be a step up with a bigger drone
thanks for the review, I just got mine, but seen your video I don't like the camera the image is far away and you barely see the person or the object. another thin is that doesn't have any sensor. thanks again for the review.
Good job well presented ---
I just got mine. Mine has a problem where it keeps moving up without any input from me. Or it would keep drifting
Great video I just got the U11 . (Won it) LOL. I'm a first time flying. What I don't understand is that the U11 says to turn on controller first then drone. Why would the 11pro have it done opposite . 🤔
Great review, I'm not sure if I need to contact Ruko but when I flew mine today for the first time I realized after pressing the "One Button Return " I just climbed I altitude a bit and it displayed "Return to home" and was beeping but it just sat there and hovered in one spot for several minutes. I finally pressed the button again to disengage that function and proceeded to fly it a bit more. I tried the Return function but it did the same thing and just hovered. Ok and thoughts would be great. And thank you for reviewing. 👍
Did you set home position at take off?
Not sure if you have to do that or not
I'm kind of cheating here. I got this drone for Christmas but I can't do anything until Christmas. So, I'm learning all I can about this U11 so as to cut the learning curve as best I can. Very informative! Thank you.
Same!
Got mine for Christmas but still haven't flown it yet cuz of the horrible weather in Massachusetts
I have been struggling to find an inexpensive drone for my kid that won't make us both beat our heads against the wall. He is a decent flier and responsible for his age, but I can't see throwing down for a DJI Mini 2 yet (he is 8). He has spent is own hard earned money on several piece of junk (most recently the sky viper GPS which we never got to sync with new iOS) and unfortunately, after a lot of tears, Target won't take it back. Any suggestions? Be nice to keep it under $200, if possible.
Hey Gregg. Great question. Shoot me an email at a.review.from.the.top@gmail.com. I'd love to discuss this further but it's probably too long of a conversation to have here in the comments.
Gotta register this one with the FAA. like 12.99
This is off topic but... What do you think of the Quad Air drone, or have you tried it?
How far does it get wifi signal. Important thing you didn't cover. Or I might have missed.
Regarding the visual.
I purchased mine for 279.99. Withn coupon 268.99. The coupon takes off the total price with taxes and everything. The coupon code is misleading.
64 gig works in mine
I did everything l could but my drone never work
Sorry to hear that. I recommend contacting Ruko directly. In my experience they have awesome customer service and always make it right if there's a problem with the drone itself.
I would buy the new F11 drone myself at the same price. Can even get it cheaper on banggood
Hey how you doing I live pretty close to where you at you live
Wouldn't it be funny that you lived probably within blocks of me. in northwest Pensacola area could I ask you where you fly your at where's your flying fields at around here I've been to this hobby
For many years I have flew airplanes helicopters quadcopters and drones I've even flew quadcopters when they were just about came out a year later still got some parts and Miss Lena's items to some of them no they don't fly no more but I still got the frame and a few parts. All right I won't get into all of it it's good to see that somebody else lives in Northwest Florida maybe could get out to your airfield one day thank you have a good day
I want to return this
Drones are the cats pajamas
Only one is a working antennae. The other one is plastic which makes 0 sense.
Drones are the catspajamas
The camera quality is terrible.
The camera looks very jiggly kinda regretting buying it
Or maybe I'm just to dumb to research what I'm spending my hard earned monies on. 🤨
