Created with AI, based on recent reviews
Unmanned Tech is a UK-based specialist retailer for FPV drones, drone parts, and Maker / IoT electronics, serving customers across the UK and Europe and worldwide. We’re run by engineers and FPV pilots who actually use the products we sell which immediately puts us ahead of most drone shops that have never powered up a flight controller. We stock a wide range of FPV components including frames, flight controllers, ESCs, motors, VTXs, receivers, batteries, and accessories, alongside Maker and IoT electronics for prototyping, robotics, automation, and embedded projects. Whether you’re building your first quad, maintaining a fleet, or sourcing components for a commercial or research project, we can help, without guessing. Support is handled in-house by humans, assisted by AI ( because typing the same setup steps 400 times a week is how enthusiasm dies). First-line support focuses on fast, clear help and getting the right info from you; anything properly technical is escalated to someone who builds and flies drones for real. No outsourcing, no overseas call centres, and no copy-paste nonsense… unless the correct fix really is “turn it off and on again. We also support a large FPV and drone community through DroneTrest and our Discord, where pilots and makers share builds, fixes, and the occasional hard-earned lesson. From pre-sales questions to post-purchase troubleshooting, our goal is simple: get you the right parts, solve problems quickly, and get you flying with confidence. FAQ: Are you actually UK-based? Yes. We’re a UK company, ship from the UK where stated, and handle support in-house. No mystery warehouses. No vanishing after checkout. Do you only sell to hobbyists? No. We support hobbyists, educators, researchers, and commercial customers, including B2B orders and technical projects. What if something goes wrong with my order? We deal with it. Mistakes happen in any business the difference is we don’t hide from them, deflect blame, or pretend couriers are mythical creatures beyond human control. Why aren’t your prices the cheapest online? Because we answer emails, test products, stock spares, and provide support after you’ve paid. Ultra-cheap sellers usually stop caring at checkout.

It’s all good when ordering and receiving your order. They’re good at that and I don’t think you can really write an honest review until problems happen. Bought a Flylens 85 HD 04Pro. Great looking quad and fun to fly but then the camera failed. You can only email the company!! You can’t get a response quickly. You have a problem and the customer will want it sorting quickly not when you decide to answer an email. Also ignoring requests isn’t a good idea. Customer service skills are bad. They’re ignorant!!! It’s all sunshine and rainbow when they’re getting the money but it seems they bury their heads hoping it will disappear (so it seems) if it goes wrong. Had to put in a PayPal case and PayPal got me a refund.
If you’re purchasing from this company take precautions on payment cause if it does go wrong you’ll be lucky to get a good response in a timely manner or even your money back.

Always good prices, fast delivery and amusing and informative item descriptions. I always compare prices and Unmanned Tech pretty much always comes out best even when compared to some of the online market places based in China. Delivery is fast, usually no more than 48 hours. Have bought loads of stuff and shall Coninue to do so for my fixed wing aircraft. So far, absolutely no negatives. Keep up the good work
For the second time, Unmanned Tech have charged my teen son £5 for next day delivery, only to deliver the goods 10 days later, AFTER "Mum stepped in" and wrote strongly worded messages on messenger.
They don't provide good service & hide behind the "unmanned" nonsense.
My lad has spent £350+ on loads of kit THAT DOESN'T WORK!
He's a clever bod, but after 3 hrs of "not working" stress, (following 10 days of delivery stress), all I can do is write this honest review. DONT BUY FROM these scammers

Staff are very knowledgeable and super helpful
Sold me a flylens 85 04 pro bnf £330 worth of drone and had bad camera with black screen from day 1 of trying to bind no rma offered trying to push me to manufactures when they should of sorted it only had it a little over 1 week offered me a replacment camera after me buying a camera out of my own pocket. I bin the camera that came with it as tested with different cable still won't work so now they telling me they will not refund me the amount for the camera .. shocking customer service over 2 weeks of back on forth .. they sell electrical item then push you to manufacturer when there is a issue shocking experience with this company and will not used them again .. i was warned about this company when a friend had a issue with a faulty item .I should of listened and stayed clear
Prompt delivery, I opened it up and mistakenly thought I had been sent the wrong item. Customer service were amazing and didn’t even make me feel stupid although in this case I clearly was.
Website worked well. Items ordered were in stock as stated and dispatched very quickly. No problems with delivery. Would order again from them and indeed I have.
Excellent service very quick delivery. Will use again
Absolutely fantastic company, competitive pricing and most importantly one of the best customer experiences I’ve ever had. My first order included an item with a small part broken due to shipping. Told them and immediately dealt with it. Ordered some more things today, shipping was dispatched within 4 hours.
Fantastic drone shop, from buying to flying around 22hours delivery time! Best prices around and a good selection. Will be ordering again really soon. Thank you very much. Happy customer
Really good! Fast delivery, item received packaged well. Would recommend
Ordered an ELRS transmitter and 4 ELRS receivers in one order.
They would not work together, as I eventually found out the firmware was incompatible, they suggested that I return them and they would * charge me * for installing compatible firmware to make them work together. This took days to sort out as you have to wait up to 24 hours for a reply. Terrible company avoid at all costs.
Being retired I no longer have or use a laptop.

Orders are turned arround in a blink of an eye, great product range and excellent product knowledge, extremely helpful and speedy when proving advice and answering questions. These guys will be my go to drone shop from now on
Very fast and efficient, no issues at all with ordering and delivery process. Had a manufacturer issue with drone, dealt with by support very professionally, with a very suitable outcome.
Amazing guys with outstanding cutomer services, Will happily be returning. Thank you!
1. When an item is on back order you still pay for it upfront Yet they withhold the entire order until the item on back order come through
2. You can hardly ever reach anyone at customer service department, you are often sent to a chat bot
3. 31 days return policy is too short for a company that deals with tech items. Tech items are complex and take time to set up.(we were building a drone) When we asked to return the items it took a month to reach someone at customer service by then they said it was too late and they refused my return.
As a conclusion, I would not recommend unmanned tech shop due to its poor customer service, failure to update you on back orders despite taking your money, and inflexibility when it comes to return policy.
Fantastic Service, and an unbeatable price, for the LDARC X 43 micro crawler. And also the LDARC 'payground' wooden ramps/see saw etc. Full FREE delivery, with Royal Mail 48 hour. Updates were awesome. A great company, that I am looking forward to using again. And will recommend, to family, and friends. At 63 years old, it is great to see service, in the UK, this fantastic. Thanks all.
Brilliant products, great prices, fast delivery and outstanding service.
