![]() The F11 Pro’s weight also means you will need to register your drone, which you can do here. It should also be a factor if you intend to travel with your drone. It’s about as long as a stapler but weighs twice as much! This can be an unpleasant surprise for beginner pilots. Let’s get one thing off the table: this drone is oddly heavy. If someone asks you why you didn’t get a DJI drone instead, “flight time” is an honest, respectable answer.īonus point: the F11 Pro’s battery has a handy button that you can press to see how charged the battery is. But if you get it with 2, your F11 Pro will fly for, effectively, twice as long as my favorite mini-drone. If you only get the Ruko F11 Pro with 1 battery, it has flight time on par with the DJI Mini 3. Be sure to get the Pro version with two batteries so you won’t need to stop and charge! (Caveat to Australian pilots: if you want extra batteries or repairs, I’ve been told that Ruko isn’t generous to your area.) The flight time isn’t as good as it sounds, but 30 minutes is still a solid amount of airtime. You’ll have to stop and swap batteries within 30 minutes, which is still better than being out of luck in the middle of nowhere. The Ruko F11 Pro can only fly for an hour by having two batteries. Even then, considering its weight, it’s impressive. That makes sense!” once I figured out how the F11 Pro managed that flight time. I was intrigued by this at first, then went, “oh, okay. But I’ve never seen a drone fly for a solid hour. I’ve seen a drone fly for 30 minutes, maybe 45 minutes if they’re lucky. It’s also a pain to have a breathtaking view and no drone to photograph it! Every minute of battery life matters, so my interest was piqued when I heard this drone could fly for an hour. Drones are notoriously inefficient some professional drones don’t last past 20 minutes. The most impressive trait of the Ruko F11 Pro drone is its battery life. But if you want to hear more, I’ll break it down feature-by-feature so that you can see these specs for yourself. Its battery life exceeds that of similar models from Holy Stone and DJI otherwise, there’s nothing wrong with being in third place. Its camera is great for the price, it has many good smart features, and it’s very compact. There are plenty of good things about the Ruko F11 Pro. And weight may be its biggest double-edged sword while its hefty 1.14 lb./517.1-gram bulk means you have to register it, it might have granted it coveted level 6 wind resistance in exchange. The F11 Pro’s biggest downside is its weight I’ll get into that more later, but other drones do most, if not all, of what it does while being lighter. The only problem is that there are better drones on the market. But how does it stack up against the drones of today? I can’t believe they stuffed all of this in a drone in 2019 and priced it how they did. The Ruko F11 Pro is chock full of features that make me go, “only 300 bucks? Really?” These include a decent camera, smart features like “follow me,” “return-to-home,” wayfinding and hand gestures, and more! It’s also got a 4K camera and amazing battery life. ![]() When I say this drone can compete with a DJI, I mean it. We’ll look at what this drone has inside, and then see how those features stack up to other drones around $300. This review will detail every feature of the Ruko F11 Pro: camera, smart features, weight, and so on. It is not a trick drone, just a solid beginner drone. The biggest thing it has going for it is an advertised 1 hour of flight time, but there’s a catch. It has a 4K camera and many “smart features” that make flying it safe and fun. It’s meant to fly around and take photos with few frills but plenty of functionality. The Ruko F11 Pro is a solid general-purpose drone. Professionals may want to look elsewhere. These functions make it an excellent drone for beginners and a good choice for the price. It’s a good drone with a 4K camera and user-friendly smart features. This drone first came out in 2019 and has held up pretty well. I’ve been flying drones for a while and love comparing them, even if it’s been a few years since they were released. This is my review of the Ruko F11 Pro drone.
