Farewell To The Eachine Falcon 210

7,083 Views · Posted 8 years ago
I have been trying as hard as I can to redeem this awful quadcopter. I put top-notch ESCs, motors, and camera on it. Even then, it managed to stink. And now I'm done with it. Join me in bidding it a not-so-fond farewell, and see the final crash that did it in for good.

The parts I installed were:

RunCam Eagle 16:9 camera - https://goo.gl/DWWZuL

Bumpbee_S 30A BLheli_S ESCs - https://goo.gl/4nlzmP

Multrotor Mania Mini Titan 2204/2300kv motor - https://goo.gl/PH6TzO

The crash at the end of the video damaged the main circuit board somehow. The copter no longer powers on. Vbat is not present at the input to the 5v regulator, so I assume a trace got cracked or something.

The crash in question was caused by a radio failsafe at a really not-very-far distance. This is the 2nd failsafe I experienced with this radio, in locations where my Taranis never once has even shrugged.

Don't buy this copter.
