Although Fimi isn’t as famous as DJI, it still has some recognition, having launched models like the Fimi Mini 3 earlier. The latest Fimi X8 Tele Max isn’t officially released yet, but it’s available for direct import for nearly $525. Shipping is free, and import costs are included; however, buyers should be aware that getting warranty support could be very tricky, and shipping from China might take up to two months. As always, it’s important for users to know the recreational drone regulations in their country (see here for USA rules and here for Australia’s rules) before buying, not only about what’s allowed but also regarding no-fly zones.
Camera Capabilities
The Fimi X8 Tele Max features two cameras: a F/1.6 main camera with an impressive 48 MP and a telephoto camera with a focal length of 120 millimeters (equivalent to 35 mm). The telephoto lens allows for a digital zoom of up to 30x. Depending on the battery used, the drone is said to weigh around 760 or 832 grams, which is above the 250-gram limit for micro drones. It has a maximum ascent speed of 5 m/s and can reach a vertical flight speed of up to 18 m/s. The drone can withstand wind speeds of up to 12 m/s, and its battery life can last between 38 to 47 minutes, depending on various conditions.
Additional Features
Equipped with a gimbal, the drone is designed to capture smooth footage even during movement or in windy weather. It can record time-lapse videos and 4K footage at 60 frames per second. GPS support allows for tracking and flight planning. Users can also add extra modules, like a speaker and a 4G modem. The RokLink 5.0 system is claimed to offer a range of up to 12.4 miles or about 20 kilometers.
