Alternative to DJI: New drone from Gleefun records in 6K and comes with numerous accessories

The Gleefun G11 Pro is a new drone now available directly from the manufacturer for a price of $400. Shipping is free on all orders within mainland USA; international customers have to pay significantly more. One advantage of this model is that two batteries are included in the scope of delivery, allowing for a combined flight time of 70 mins.

As for the drone itself, the Gleefun G11 Pro can take 6K photos, while video recording is limited to 4K resolution and 30 frames per second. The camera and its 1/3.2-inch sensor is not attached directly to the drone, but via a 3-axis gimbal, providing a 75° field of view. Furthermore, the movement of the drone is said not to affect camera quality, delivering stable and clear footage. Live video transmission is possible over distances of up to 1.85 miles or 3 kilometers.

The drone comes with a remote control that is advertised as ergonomic and user-friendly, as well as a portable bag and a number of replacement parts. However, there is one significant limitation: the takeoff weight is listed at 357 grams, exceeding the 250-gram legal limit for recreational drone flying in many countries.
