One of the most exciting things about the Eachine X220S is the fact that it can support 5S batteries right out of the box. 5S is the new 4S. I wasn't sure it would really make that much of a difference. Man was I wrong. Just make sure you watch your battery level. With a 5S it's much easier to drain the battery below it's minimum.

hi pro, is the small screen in the left corner the screen you see on the fpv glass?
Best combination I found after flying the Wizard X220S model for a year was 4S/75C/1550mAh (Tattu) and Dal Cyclone 5050's. 4 min flights and loads of power with very good grip and punch outs. The 5042 and 5048 props I used by Racestar were scary on fast corners, I kept hitting the ground, I was used to the immediate bite of the 5050 props, they are awesome. I think the purple Wizard soft ones you showed are 5051. Great vid, thx.. enjoyed seeing it on 5S.
I agree, we were advid on building your own but, now I do not believe you save anything and the quality has come to a comparative level. love the way the prices have come down too.
Love the sound of 5 and 6s packs.
Remember when you rest the quad rather than going nuts with the throttle all the time the battery voltage will settle down to a higher number than you're seeing in your OSD.
I fly both my drone on 5s and they last longer than my 4s. You just have to fly 70% throttle most of your punch outs and just know it has the power when you need it. I'm also loving the racerstar 5048 props. Lots of torque at low end too.
wow. eachine is upping the game!
That is a great testfield you have behind your house.
Great flying man!
And yes, you also have those 3 columns of lightly black horizontal lines on your DVR and goggles view ... I have seen them also in another youtuber video and now on yours. I thought mine was defect but it looks like its coming like that out of the box.
woo 5048's!
yea man I love these ZIppy 5s units.........had it holding a laser the other night that was a blast..........
ive thought long and hard about getting one of these might be a christmas pressent to myself
Congrats on your 5k+ subs!
+Robin van der Velden THANKS!
is 5s worth it if it kills flight time that much hobby line bats are pretty decent
+Aaron Rohleder I run stuff pretty hard in my back yard. In a few weeks I'll see how it does on a track.
Great channel man. You earned my subscription
+BigGameTex THANKS!
If you run 4s speeds with your 5s pack, you will see nicer flight
times :) nice flying !
+Josh Ketchum in a race scenario I think it would do really well. I just have to much room to abuse it here
+Josh Ketchum That's true. It's going to be interesting to see how the 5S acts on a race track.
i'm going order it
+KennyLee NYC have fun with it!
is this your house? or is that a hotel?
Lol, that is my house. But this is the US Midwest. Houses are much cheaper than you would expect. And we've seen what I believe is your in laws estate? :-)
UAVfutures you wouldn't happen to know the best prop to use on this quad for longer flight times? Would the Dal cyclone be good?
I am a huge fan of ur videos and would love to get into the hobby. Planning on getting one of these bad boy quads my self but would want to be getting a decent time in the air for each pack
answer as always, to increase flight time you have to decrease amp draw, you can do that by using lighter props, , less agressive pitch on the props, less disc area, less blades, make your quad lighter, choose and compine as many as you want, try HQ5x4x3 or HQ5x4.3x3 if you want more speed, you should get around 3-4 Minutes out if that if your flying fast
+UAVfutures lol!!! 😂
Would you recommend this or a furibee x140 for a first racing quad? ( I have flown smaller drones before).
Definitely jigawatts! I wonder how much faster than the older one I have with the naze board that wouldn't handle 4s
Be careful with the RacerStar 5048's. I've had 2 snap on me mid-flight with no crashes. Very frustrating. They flew well at first but then....boom!!
+miahndes Good to know, this was my first test of them. Was that on the V2 models? I've used the 5042s a lot on the F200 and really like them.
You know, I just had to go to check because I wasn't sure. No mine were the V1's which could have been why. I stopped using them after the second broke as I was entering a power loop. My quad ended up landing upside down in a street. I was not very happy at all. None of the props showed any stress lines or anything.... just two of the blades on two different props decided to take off. I'm flying a Martian II with RacerStar 2205s and a 1500 battery so I'd imagine similar weight to the Wizzard. I'm going to pick up some Cyclones and see how they work.
The old wizard seemed to fly more agile and plenty fast, so I don't see how this is better. Never flew though, just my opinion from watching.
+Greg Dale It's a lot of the extras that are much better on the new one. OSD, much better vtx, better antenna, better camera, 5S ready, gopro mount, better motors, f4 FC
What happened to the Eachine 180 tilt rotor no one could ever figure out how to fly the thing now its nearly impossible to get parts Im having 1000 foot pads made which is where the carbon fiber would break when it crashed but its super awesome to have a ROCKET with brakes! WIsh some folks would push it instead of giving up on a great idea.
Did you ever figure out how to fix the lines in the video feed? It looks like they're only there while armed.
Screaming at screen "laaaannndd" hahah, looks like you had a blast!
+Komplete Maschine yea, I kind of forgot. :-)
More power
I love this droneeeeee
I run 5s alot and prefer to use Cyclone v1 T5045c.. great at that rpm range ;)
i didnt know the 220s could run 5s.... wow. i got this after my first failed build but ive learned a lot since that failed build and im using the scrap parts i didnt burn out with my old build to make a decent racer that is so far way better than my 220x
The props also flex and come in contact with top plate, big no-no boo-boo con. And technically the boards VTX, and wiring / soldering joints are not designed for 5S too much heat you'll eventually have something fry/melt. There's no need for 5S just a marketing lobbying job among hobby designers to start a flux of 5S buying. 4S is plenty enough he'll 3S on just the x220 original was crazy.
+Andrew Blanche no, there is no need. But people are going to do it anyway. I few 3S for the last 10 years, there was no need for 4S. Only a few crazy people used 4S 3 years ago. But now it's completely standard. People always want more power. Having said that I agree this is really a 4S flier and that is where I will be doing most of my testing.
+Andrew Blanche there is no need to reverse or replace the VTX th-cam.com/video/Tase88VUc0A/w-d-xo.html you can change it without taking it apart.
Tattu R-line 5s 1300mah 95C
Crazepony Infinity Graphene 90c. beats my tattu and tattu r-line. they even make a 120c battery if 90c isnt enough for ya. look it up on amazon, best batteries ive ever used
120C.. sounds legit ;)
+Alex Webster I like those batteries a lot. I will have one in my battery shootout at the end of the month.
DroneRacer101 definitely looking forwards to that! you should get a gaoneng battery and use that in the test! suppose to be one of the best batteries but I've never tried since they are always out of stock and I have 22+ batteries which I think is enough for now 😌
+Alex Webster I have a couple of their LIHV batteries that will be in the test.
hello, very cool your video, I liked the explanation about the batteries ... I also bought an x220s, but mine does not show the battery voltage, could you tell me some configuration? thank you
how wide is the braided sleeve covering the wires on the arms? It looks great and I want to get some
That looks like Indiana to me :). Am I right cause I know my home state when I see it haha!
3:40 why 4 times 5
i understand the 5(cuz its 5s)but what about the 4
did you get my pictures of the receiver to the kingkong? 95gt
+drums&drones I just saw it and replied. Can you tell if it is powering on? I go through the whole binding process in this video. th-cam.com/video/DV7KC-umunA/w-d-xo.html
How the HECK did you get the vbat on OSD to work? No one seems to have a video of this for this version of the x220s model.
Awesome video - looking to get one myself but do not have a budget for too many batteries and love flying. This will be my first proper race quad. Do u know what props would be the most efficient to get the longest flight time out of this quad and still get reasonable power? Cheers
I haven't gotten to try them all yet so it's too early to say what will be best. A very strong contender will be the Dal Cyclone. bit.ly/DALCyclone5045C
DroneRacer101 are these similar to the 5048s that you posted in the description? They look very similar just cheaper
I think I'm going to have to preorder it I can't wait - just bought one of the last runcam 3s off bangood. So exited
+yoytal my "new user setup" video will be posted by the time you get it. :-)
+yoytal sweet.
Where can I get a 5s battery? Is it a good beginner fpv drone? What fpv glasses would you recommend, maybe eachine 800d?
Is this a good quad for a new pilot? By new I mean sim experience and tiny whoop experience in acro mode only.
When Do i know that my battery is low?
hi pro, is the small screen in the left corner the screen you see on the fpv glass?
Hello,
I have a question and is it possible to display the battery voltage in the glasses on the Wizard X220s? When I set this in Betaflight, there is always only 0.0V and the number does not change while flying.
L.G clash fpv
I know this video is old, I’m really getting into FPV and I want to get my first proper drone will the x220s be a good place to start for £160 I can get the x220s and the fi6 sky high receiver, I’m willing to put in upgrades and learn the build side in that way but is there anything better out there?
Hi,
What kind is the battery 4s and 5s
Thanks
Do you have to change something in the wizard, so it could handle the 4s or 5s?
And how long you can fly on 3s or 4s 1500mha?
+Mangusta The only thing I changed are the props like in the video. I haven’t pulled out the Wizard in a while. But it was pretty standard. 3 minutes the way I fly?
which batteries would you recommend for longer sessions, on my wizard, this is my first racing drone and I would like to get more batteries.
+David silva olivares I haven't gotten to do my full battery roundup yet. But of the couple I have tried I liked these best. bit.ly/2t6BPCs They also have a 1500
I started with turnigy 1800mah 20c, 60c wouldve been better. start with that, then maybe go to tattu 4s 75 c 1300mah. That's what i have now, roughly 6 minute flight times (running hard, 4 minutes), and thats on kingkong 5045's's Have fun!
hello what camera are you using? i like the vbat function :D
Why you got to camera views?
Cool video. im trying to choose between this new 5S wizard and a custom build. I know a custom build will be better quality overall but maybe an ARF quad would be better for my first quad. I noticed you had the top plate at the top of your FPV feed, on the first flight with different props.. Is there any way to avoid this with a 30' camera angle ?
Oh. Im just noticing there is a gap in the top plate for the fpv cam. is that the bottom of your GoPro mount in the top of the fpv feed then ?
Please tell me more problems that it has. You said it eats batteries very fast. Is there any way to maximise flight time on this ? or is it just too heavy ? Also I saw in another video that said the VTX is upside down as well as under the strap. Is that true ? Also I saw that the props that come with actually hit the top plate. Did you find this on your model ?
+DawntreaderUK That isn't the top plate. That is the HD camera mount. For the full speed tests I think I will have to take it off. But with a 1300 battery you can move it back a little more and get a better angle.
+DawntreaderUK exactly
+DawntreaderUK Number 1 is that you MUST Loctite the motor screws. th-cam.com/video/g7a5vjEbadY/w-d-xo.html The stock props don't quite strike once they are screwed down. But they are not great so I recommend changing props anyway. The VTX is fine. Make sure you Subscribe and you'll see my solution for that on Friday. :-)
Hello! The camera that you use in the fpv, is the original one that comes with the wizard x220s?
Yes. I did not change the camera n
OMG this speed is scaring me.
I see their props are just the same as the first Wizard, I swear mine would break just by looking at them the wrong way, and I had lots of them just explode on me during punch outs.
What 5s packs are you using?
+DavyBoy it's a China Hobby 70c
How would you compare this to the diatone, gt200, thinking on getting one our the other
+john s GT200 by a mile. My wizard arms are still good. But the top plate broke. This is the once I would get. bit.ly/DiatoneGT200S the only thing I had to mod was the antenna. th-cam.com/video/RFHlpYTPxrU/w-d-xo.html
DroneRacer101 yeah that's the one I was leaning towards, the diatone, 200 stretch does look pretty sweet, and a fast flyer, thanks for the info, surely appreciated
How did you get to see you voltage, because i cant see it when i am flying it just says that it is 0.0
Turn on V-Bat in beta flight and then it should work, I had the same problem.
Come on now... It's gonna be loud on 5s no matter the props that pushes some air! Wow.. Maybe I do want to rebuild my old wizard?.., I don't need 5s but might as well if I rebuild
Cheers for the review.
But can I assume you've not seen 400+grams of lithium-polymer combust?
For the well being of your neighbours and their property, might I suggest some time with a flight sim, and perhaps a lighter quad.
How many MAH?
nice video.. Stock vtx ? Stock antenna ?
Yep. This was stock everything.
Try the airsoft battery
awsome video man
u know where i can buy a tbs antena
www.team-blacksheep.com/ I assume
Great review of the quad, and 5s sounds awesome. I am taking issue that you are flying around a noisy quad while people are trying to play golf. not cool
+Benjamin King right across the street is a hospital helipad. They are WAY louder and much more often. The golfers are used to it.
+Benjamin King I should say too. When there are golfers out I don't go over the course. There is a nice big rough between the houses and the course so that is where I go when I when I need to test range or speed off my property.
I guess I am not particularly worried about hitting anyone, but golfers tend to complain to neighborhood associations when you make too much noise... (I have been there/done that lol). Given they have to deal with helicopters, I am sure a quad isn't too much haha
+Benjamin King when I first moved in I worried about mowing while they were golfing. It seemed rude. Then I got over it. :-)
Just getting into this cause of my hubby. I'm wanting to build my own mini drone.
whats your thoughts on the mountable vtx that comes with this? 16 bucks on bgood and thinking about picking one up.
+Roto Vicious the VTX seems fine. Biggest issue is getting is set inside the Wizard frame. But if you are going to move it it would probably be fine. Depending on where you are just watch the channels. Some of them shipped supporting channels that are not legal everywhere.
If the wizard can handle a 6s pls use one
This is the X220S, it is rated for 5S, the new X220HV is rated for 6S bit.ly/WizardX220HV
Iv read multiple test on props cuz I'm a number guy and the reg square end del props Paramore efficient and have more thrust then most others Def better then the ones with the little fancy hook on the end that's jest a marketing scam and are way less trust and hard on batterys.
hi the more beasty awesome f200 or wizzard 5s?
+golem9111 the wizard is more Beastly. The Awesome feels more graceful.
Did you do any mods to the stock wizard to make it take 5s?
Nope. Supports 5S right out of the box.
whats the prices for a 5S battery for this? suggestions that work good?
+VideoGame Polak I don't have enough experience with 5S yet. I am using China Hobby Line which are ok. Banggood doesn't have any good ones yet that I have seen.
how much did that run? these are on preorder july 31st now at banggood..prolly where im gonna get mine since you can snag coupon codes
Максимальная высота этого дрона не скажите?
Are you risking it if you fly it with 4s?
Oh no, it’s really made to fly with 4S. But if CAN fly with 5S.
DroneRacer101 Thanks for that! you deserve more subs! keep it up🙂
how about the normal Wizard? can it fly with 4s?
I don’t think so. I actually JUST got one so I plan on doing a series on it. An awful lot of people still by that one.
what do you think top speed is on 5cell?
+quad55555 I honestly don’t know. Will be doing a shootout soon.
dal props
Entertaining...
+John Bearing thanks!
super
I've been seeing reviews where people were saying the stock 4s battery that comes with the RTF kit have been disappointing. Have you had such issues?
+Snafu2346 with the stock blades this thing is hard on all batteries. I haven't tried the stock battery since swapping them.
Hi, thanks for replying.
Have you suffered any other quality issues with this quad? Ive seen some reviews where soldering looked sketchy, most already know about the motors flying off and Banggood has mentioned on their site to re tighten them.
RCModelreviews has been particularly harsh on reviewing the X220S but I don't know if its a isolated incident.
I was thinking of getting the X220s, or the Fuutoon 200, or a custom Armattan Chameleon for a little bit more.
Any suggestions?
DroneRacer101 has been hearing that pretty consistently in a lot of the reviews too. Luckily propellers are cheap and I'll probably just buy me some less aggressive ones. Or at least more efficient ones. I saw you put a link on your website for some. I appreciate you getting back to me.
+Snafu2346 I like Bruce and +RCModelReviews a lot. Time will tell whether he got a dodgy flight controller or were they all end up having problems. But mine has been great and a lot of other peoples work well. I got a Fuuton and it blew up as soon as I plugged it in. Never even got to record it. Right now my big debate is between the X220S and the Awesome F200. bit.ly/AwesomeF200Pro
Oh no! Don't mention another drone! I've been watching your Lizard 95 videos and I think I'm DEFINITELY going to get one of those to thrash around. That is after I "soft mount" it or look at that softy mounty thingy option do-a-ma-hickey. But its cheap speed! If I hear any more drones, I'll max out my credit card!
I'd still like a GT2 crusader someday....
What top speeds mph are these getting up to?
I don’t know for sure. Didn’t have a way to measure it at the time. I would guess it was low 80s on 3S. Not as fast as the darkmax.
Thanks for responding! I was hoping it was over 60 mph... So that's even Better! I hope I can be ordering this soon!
2 minutes im use to 17 on a 4s ...djd old school
+Bigwingrider1800 depends upon on how you fly and what is is made for. That 17 minute flier isn't going to be much of a racer. :-)
Your right but 2 minutes............
+Bigwingrider1800 most races are 2 minutes. And I can't floor the throttle like I do here in a race. But yea. Definitely not the drone I am using for long range.
Dude, you probably killed the life of that battery by at least half. You'll be throwing that in the bin before long.
Des da nichts durch brennt .der arme lipo😵👍
Here's what you've been wanting to see man.. ;) My Frog Lite build with an Asgard: i.imgur.com/OzXRNsG.jpg and i.imgur.com/1JGSIIW.jpg (2nd pic: Asgard, Monster, and VTX on an F200... Don't buy the F200. The CF sucks)
301g w/o lipo. Can mount lipo or GoPro on top. Can point VTX back and down. $154 with Fuuton motors before FPV gear.
Extra pic: i.imgur.com/41kOXZI.jpg (Frog is better in all the right ways. I'd say nearly the perfect drone) ;) :)
yo what camera did you use?
Sorry, for which part?
well in general for the wizard because I am interested in the osd!
Ah, so the FPV camera? This one is the stock camera. I did not change it.
oh ok but the osd is for the goggles then??? or does it indicate the battery status for the quad itself?
Ah, I think you are confusing the models. The older Wizard X220 did not have an OSD. But this newer X220S does have a built in OSD.
BACK TO THE FUTURE,,,,,,,,,,,,HAHAHAHAHAH
my dad has got 1 ov this drown i fink
To fast for me bro ,
It will run on 3S and 4S batteries too. This is just the top end.
