The FuriBee X215 Pro is the next in a line of awesome RTF racing FPV quads, but is it better than the DarkMax 220, HolyBro Kopis 1 and Stormer 220?
FuriBee quads are getting better and better, the X215 Pro is the latest and greatest example, improved further by the recent launch of the X215 Pro-S which also now incorporates a RunCam Split style high-resolution camera, doubling as the FPV camera.
The flight performance on stock PIDs is very stable and the quality from the 1200 TVL CCD camera is excellent, assisted by the high-quality lens.
