New Entry Announced In The Mini-Drone Market

Wingsland S6 Unveiled In China

Wingsland (Wingsland Technology Co., Ltd.) has just unveiled the S6 in a launch event on August 18, Beijing, China.

The S6 is roughly the size of an iPhone 6 Plus in its folded form, easy to store and carry. Featuring a 13MP low distortion camera, the company says the S6 is the world's thinnest 4K drone, weighing in at only eight ounces including the battery and is only an inch thick.

Available in six colors, the S6 is also one special collaboration design with fashion brand-MLGB.

Wingsland says the S6 allows you to attach different functional accessories through extended port which is located on the upper shell of the S6. There are three compatible modules for users to choose from: a toy gun, a searchlight and an emoji display screen; an all-around obstacle avoidance module will be available later.

The S6 is controlled with a powerful piloting app and can be maneuvered in different control modes. It also has all mainstream drone features: intelligent orientation control, auto return home, follow me and one-key takeoff/landing.

If DJI is the drone world's "DSLR," then the S6 will be known as the "smartphone." Light, smart, portable, it has all the features that you expect in a drone, but more functions can be added through compatible accessories, making it more like an aerial robot.

The S6 starts at at about $350. Wingsland says it will be shipping the S6 worldwide very soon.
