Guys I have addressed the issues that many of you have mentioned in the comments, specifically the music being too loud/ annoying and staying on topic. Remember, this video is over a year old. Thanks.
Ty, this was super helpful! Easy to work along while you explain the task at hand. A lot of the videos I was finding did not explain things very well from a beginners pov. Just wanted to say thanks!
It was worth it for the bluetac handy hint. I am amazed that Emax doesnt build a these upgrades into their model. Have a basic and an advanced unit. Nice work
I have been using solder paste now for a Quite sometime I lived out of my car and never quit doing my hobbies and man did the paste help it made soldering effortless and on the small circuits it’s a pleasure to use .
I wish I'd thought to change just the plug. The heavy gauge wires are overkill. The RDQ 650s are great for cruising around. Heavy but I get 6 mins easy.
@@TitanFPV I love it too!! What a bloody ripper. It's extremely well constructed and very, very tough. Absolutely love this design. Flies awesome too. 🍻
what second quad would you recommend that is under 175? I have been flying the normal tiny hawk 2 for about 3 to 4 months. Im looking for a quad with unguarded props and have the ability to fly at parks without annoying people. would this be a solid option or should I opt for something else like a mobua 6 to toothpick conversion which is a little bit more expensive?
I would pass on the conversions. If you want a BNF, I would go TWIG XL. Just in your budget. I have several videos on my channel. Check them out. It’s still one of my go to quads. pyrodrone.com/products/twig-xl-3-fpv-toothpick-quad
@@crawfish5911 it’s not real loud. Still not going to be as quiet as something like a babytooth, but you would have to build that. Actually Newbeedrone has a Savage bee that might work out for you. They do have a BNF. newbeedrone.com/products/savagebee-bnf-beebrain-bl-v2-frsky I haven’t flown one, but I’ve heard good things about them. Won’t be as powerful, the cam isn’t as good, and unless you go crossfire, the range won’t be as good. Another to look at is the Happymodel Crux 3. The Twig XL is nicer than both, but not as quiet.
Could you or.anyone suggest a cheap but reliable solder iron? Also best kind of solder to use? Def gonna grab the flux pen that looks pretty easy to use. Thanks
I generally use anywhere from a 2s 450mAh to a 2s 550mAh. The RDQ 2s 525mAh HV, is my preferred though. You’ll be fine with the 650mAh for cruising, but remember being lightweight is the secret sauce for the Freestyle 2.
When you turned on RPM filtering the cpu load shot up to 100% then to 75% which is too much. Bad idea. This board is not suitable for rpm filtering. I tried it my self and it flew a lot better with rpm filters off
It's a battle between the music and the voice audio .... Such a shame , It could have been a good video otherwise without Super Mario drowning it all out 👎
5 minute beginning that had nothing to do with the video. Which you could have made into a separate video of it's own. Explains every detail to make the video extra long and frustrating to watch. You should do a detailed long video (this video) and then make a 3-5 minute short video that lists the upgrades quickly and to the point. Without the detailed explanation of every detail that not everyone needs. And turn the music off its annoying.

Thank you for the upgrade tutorial! Suggestion: keep all the stuff about that other quad for the end, not the beginning? I came here for the hawk lol

I did the xt30 mod, upgraded the antenna, and the Andy RC pids. I"m going to try out the rpm filtering next!

Great vid for beginners looking to get into upgrades. Thanks so much!
You’re welcome. Glad to help.
Great video, Great tips. Thanks a million.
definitely could do without the nusic, but I like the upgrades
Can I upgrade the battery connector with doing everything else like the stuff in the computer, I’m obviously a noob
Most definitely!
5:09. Tinyhawk’ s first appears.
5:11 when actual content starts.

The RDQ 650s are great for cruising around. Heavy but I get 6 mins easy.
I have some Talon 2s 600mAhs I need to try. They are the fat style batteries, but hey😜
Yo this helped me a ton, thanks!
Anytime!
Just picked up a TH2F RTF kit. What antennas would you recommend for the goggles? And I guess the antenna on the drone is soldered on?
On the cheaper side, a pagoda. AXIIs or TrueRC Singularity are also nice. The antenna is soldered directly on the drone. You’ll love the quad!

Hey man, Great vid! Mine just came in. Could you maybe explain what the RPM filter does for the quad? I mean do you notice a difference?
Generally gives you better performance and longer battery life. Thanks!
@@TitanFPV "um ummm it gives u better performance" lol
That's a cool upgrade..
Thanks!
What are the best batteries for this?
I like the RDQ HV 2s 525mAhs.
Which props do u use for TH freestyle 2? (5:09)
I've run several different props on the FS 2, but I always come back to the Avan Rush that it ships with.
@@TitanFPV thnx

A lot of people use the TS-100 iron. I have a Ksger T12 station myself. The Maiyum 63 37 Tin Lead Rosin core on Amazon is what I use.
@@TitanFPV thanks for the help!! Dobu recommend .6mm, .8mm or the 1mm on that solder?
.6mm works for me.
What Lipo is that please?
Tattu 2s 450mAh, RDQ HV 2s 525mAh, and Talon 2s 550mAh. The RDQ 525 was my favorite.
@@TitanFPV thanks for the reply. Just ordered the TH FS II can't wait. Great video also. 👍👍👍🇬🇧
@@TitanFPV sorry, last Q - what do you use to charge them?
Anytime!
@@TitanFPV whoa, my lips just turned up, the connector is tiny!! I thought it was XT30, is there a mini version of the XT30?
The stock batteries are 450mah, so isn't it 900mah all together? Wouldn't you want a 900mah 2s battery for it to be actually comparable?
They are running in series configuration, so the voltage is doubled, not capacity. So essentially a 2s 450mAh.
@@TitanFPV Yea I should have known that lol but now I'm in a bind because the 2x 1s 450 only weigh 24g, where a 2s 450 weighs 31g....
Will the update and filter part work on the tinyhawk 2 too?
It should, yes.
Which size of 2s battery you raccomend for TinyHawk 2 Freestyle? 650 mah is too much? Thanks
I generally use anywhere from a 2s 450mAh to a 2s 550mAh. The RDQ 2s 525mAh HV, is my preferred though. You’ll be fine with the 650mAh for cruising, but remember being lightweight is the secret sauce for the Freestyle 2.

I’d keep the video about what the title says. I’m sure a whole bunch of people had to do a lot of fast forwarding.
5:09
How did you get it to record video?
Are you talking on my Mac? Screen recording is shift + cmd + 5.
@@TitanFPV I mean get the drone to record video to a micro SD card.
Some VTX have an onboard dvr that records to an sd card. I mostly record with the DVR on my Fatshark goggles.
It's a battle between the music and the voice audio .... Such a shame , It could have been a good video otherwise without Super Mario drowning it all out 👎
Can these esc updates and software mods be done without doing the battery hard mod? Or do they go hand in hand?
The XT30 mod is not required.
I liked the content, but the background music was awful.
I think that’s the general consensus on this video. I’ve since put less and better music on my later videos. Thanks for the feedback and glad to help!
came here for the title wasted 3minutes about a different drone. i left.
Can't watch any more of this. That music is freaking ridiculous. It doesn't make any sense to play music while giving a tutorial man.
