This my first ‘Official Drone’. All I can say is wow, the camera on this Drone shoots amazing videos and stills. It’s got a lot of neat features and the RTH (Return to Home) works fine. I was nervous using it the first time but it made it home. My first day out with the Ruko F11 Gim it was pretty windy out, probably gust upwards towards 20mph, after all, it’s Spring here in Central Illinois. Anyway, the Drone handles well in those conditions. There is still more to this Drone so I need to do some digging through the instructions which in my opinion are pretty straightforward. Overall, I am extremely happy with this purchase. I have not had to use their customer service as of yet but as others have reported, the staff gets back to you quickly via email. Cannot wait to get it up in the air again!

This is my third drone. I bought the budget Force 1 to learn the basics, but quickly realized I was never going to be able to practice enough to pilot and get good stable video without GPS. I upgraded to the Ruko F11 and love the GPS hold, but was not a fan of the fisheye lens distortion or image quality and even with GPS there was still significant video instability. So, I decided to invest the extra $100 on the Ruko F11 GIM. The extra money gets you a much better camera, shock mount gimbal and 2-Axis electronic image stabilization and delivers with no fisheye, crystal clear images and stable video.Bumping up on $400, it’s not exactly budget anymore, but similarly equipped and featured, you are looking at more than double that for a DJI Mini 2. When I compared the features against Mini 2, there wasn’t a single unique feature on DJI that justified the cost to me. The Ruko documentation and training videos are simple and easy to understand, the build quality is decent and the video exceeded expectations. For an affordable and fun to fly drone with occasional amateur aerial photography and video the Ruko F11 GIM really hits the sweet spot for me.

The first thing I noticed and liked, is that once its off of the ground, this drone holds its position, even with a few sudden wind gusts. I've already taken some great pictures!

This is my first drone and it's very easy for beginners to learn how to fly drones.

I have flown many different drones, but I have never flown a drone quite like this. I got this as a surprise and I have enjoyed it very much. The sport mode is quite fun to play around with, and the camera mode is enjoyable to take photos. Great fun! I got almost 30 mins flight time and was very much impressed! Love it!!!

I was hesitant about the foldable drones but after this, foldable is the way to go. The camera is very good, the remote is soooo nice. Make sure to read the directions and you won’t have any problems!!

Got the F11 Gim to replace my F11 Pro, which I also loved, but seems I left it somewhere for easy taking. The gimbal camera makes the photos and videos even sharper. This drone also seems to fly more stable and further. I sometimes think the phone view, while in a high hover, is frozen, but it's just so stable it just seems that way. Calibration is just like the Pro with only a quick gimbal calibration added on. After just a few set ups, its all pretty quick and easy.
