Autel Robotics X-STAR PREMIUM Specification

Overview

The Autel Robotics X-STAR PREMIUM is a Multirotors drone that was released by Autel Robotics in 2016.

A multirotor drone is a multiple propeller, vertical lift drone. These drones are more maneuverable due to their flight profile, being able to fly much closer to buildings and other obstacles. Multi-rotor drones like the Autel Robotics X-STAR PREMIUM also tend to be faster to deploy, and tend to be significantly cheaper to acquire and operate.

The battery capacity inside is 4900 mAh.

Performance

The Autel Robotics X-STAR PREMIUM falls within an 'average' speed of drones with a max speed of around 56 km/h. If you're a beginner or even an intermediate drone user, than this should still be plenty. if you're looking for something a bit faster however, it'd be best to keep looking.

With a range that falls under the 1km mark at 1.9 km, it's definitely on the lower side of drones. This will be plenty for an occasional, line of sight flight drone, particularly with toys, but if you're looking to fly something with a little more range than this drone definitely isn't for you.

Falling inside a decent flight range for drones at 1.9 km, you'd be safe to fly it outside of line-of-sight. You won't be disappearing to the other side of the city, but you will get more than enough range for average and above-average usage.

The drone sits well within an average flight time when compared to other drones, with a maximum flight time of 25 min. This flight time will be plenty of the average user, and should give you more than enough time between charges. You can always bring an extra battery to swap out between flights, or just a battery pack to charge it up as you go should you need a little more flight time.

The X-Star Premium is good camera drone that produces fairly good footage, though it can be a bit unsteady in the air at times. However, if you're looking for great footage you would be better served spending a little extra and getting the DJI Phantom 4.

It’s great fun, reliable, has a great battery, and is full of useful functionality. When all that is combined with the insanely good camera (and the even better gimble) this drone gets even better. This is one of the best drones for aerial photography you can get at a reasonable price point. All that goodness combined with a very reasonable price point makes the Autel X-Star Premium an easy recommendation.
