I just wanted to say that CAPTAIN DRONE is the best drone captain on TH-cam.
I agree!
Me too!!! 👍😀👍
Me three!
@@benwoods9649 Pretty big shoes to fill for a pilot when you make that comment. I can think 6 that are much better.
Every time I watch his vids it gets me excited about flying again.
love your reviews! I know this is a year old, and not sure if they just started doing this, , but per Emax, this is basically the same controller as used with the tinyhawk, and also uses Frsky protocol. Which means if you want to upgrade to a different quad, you can most definately use this controller, as long as you buy or build one with a Frsky receiver in it, which is one of the most popular there is.
Also, just for anyone out there new to FPV, this confused the heck out of me when I was new, and I ordered wrong parts twice before I figured it out..lol. There are two companies that make radio controllers and recievers with extremely similar names. Frsky and FlySky, two totallyl different companies, most people pronounce the first one by saying the first two letters separately then the word sky.....F--R--sky, the second one is said as all one word.....flysky. Just wanted to throw that out there, hope it helps. ✌️
This is a good quad to learn on, but if you're like me, you'll soon wish you bought the Tinyhawk. I did make a modification to mine to make it a little easier to FPV fly. The camera is at such a high angle, you're looking up even at full forward. It can't pitch forward enough to level the camera, so you always end up flying it while looking upwards. The bottom of the camera PCB has a tab on it and that fits into a little square raised recess in the canopy. I took that tab out of that hole and put the camera PCB tab in front of the square recess. This took me from barely being to fly around the tree in the front yard to being to fly out of my yard, down the sidewalk and to the neighbor's yard and fly back. If you're having trouble, lower the camera angle. It was a huge help for me because at full pitch forward, I'm now looking level.
As a FPV pilot of a few years now, this is the perfect way to introduce a newby to our hobby.
Let me know the next time you have a garage sale, there’s lots of good looking stuff in that basement.
Next Spring!
Nice job as usual Cap'n. I got one of these from Amazon today! On your recommendation. First flight in living room and spilled my beer trying to catch it. ( I think it needs some trim adjustments to avoid further alcohol abuse!) Your thoroughness and cheery attitude are commendable. Thanks! -- LATER -- I have to say, though, if a person wants to learn to fly a drone, this is not the one to use. Really, you have four minutes, max, to monkey around with the controls trying to get a handle on how it works, trim-wise. This is problematic when the unit jumps into the air like a rocket and then goes about on its own ignoring the controller. Now depleted, recharge that meager four minute battery at the very least an hour! Who has the patience for that screwy bell curve? While the total package is jam packed with technology that I initially liked and really wanted to use, sadly, I sent mine back because after only a couple of recharge cycles two rotors stopped functioning making it completely useless. I have to rate this product poor because it could be great only if you already are adept as a pilot, and, the product does not fail to function as did mine.
After many years of building and flying conventional drones I thought I would hop on into the FPV world this spring. After building a nice 220mm carbon Frame beauty I went with some other (more experienced) FPV friends out on July 4th 2019 for a little fun. After putting the goggles on without my (far-sighted) prescription glasses I told a buddy Its blurry..... Buddies response "It'll be alright.....Just take it slow" Said the Oak tree after it hit my full speed drone "I win....!!!! " Lesson learned. A great review (as always) and some great advice from Captain Drone on the nuances of the FPV world...… And it is a different world..... Thanks again Captain Drone!!!! You got me thinking of this model to train my brain and perhaps goggles for farsightedness....!!!!
Ha ha... I think I hit everything within 10 feet of me for the first few months of learning to fly FPV with a 250mm frame.
I can't believe this; your unboxing part was more useful than another full video on the set-up. Mine did not come with instructions, but you clarified a few issues. Thanks.
Glad I could help
FINALLY! I've been waiting a long time for you to recommend a beginner FPV. I believe this is a good choice. Purchased mine, and thanks Cpt.
Definitely a difference between fpv and photography drones. I started with drl sim and recently got my first dji. It took some time getting use to the dji.
The best beginner drone review ever.
your wall Is unbelievable with various drones..🇬🇧
Just bought mine days ago, and im practising using advance/pro mode.. all thanks to you sir steve..
Great to hear!
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 been thinking, what should i buy first radio or goggles? I've seen your fvp related videos countless times before i bought the ez pilot..
@@xhappy425 For goggles you have to decide if you want ANALOG, DJI DIGITAL, HD ZERO DIGITAL or WALKSNAIL AVATAR DIGITAL, and the buy the best set. For Radio you have to decide if you want ELRS, CROSSFIRE Or everything else.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 I'd like ELRS and I don't have deep pocket so maybe i'll stick to analog for now.. Thank you very much for the reply..
Mine will be here in a few minutes to 4 hours. I’m getting REALLY exited!
I’m sold. My brain has nothing better to do. Even very inexpensive is expensive when you’re on Social Security. She has a life I have memories and a sense of humor.
Perfect timing with the information required for we intermediate droners. FPV explained by Captain Drone gives a better degree of confidence. Thanks for the channel.
Thank you!
Just received my small EZ Guy! Once again, thank's for all tips Cap.
Your hallway and Livingroom colours are the same as mine. You could have loads of fun with that indoors and out. Another entertaining video from one of my favourite youtuber
My husband and I have a SJ F11. When we were watching the instructional video, your review of it was next up. Your video was more helpful than the "official" one! That got us watching more of yours! We watched another where you were flying FVP through your house and out through your garage. NOW I WANT AN FVP!! I am a beginner with drones. Hubby was deep into RC airplanes for years. So, he has to retrain his brain. Airplanes always move forward and don't stop!
What FVP kit would you recommend?
Thanks so much, we think you are awesome!
Lareen
FPV is very different than camera drones for a learning curve. Also, FPV can be very expensive to get into & then after that everything is cheap. For this reason if you just wish to dip your toe in the water of FPV you should by an inexpensive FPV all in one kit from EMAX. Check their website, they have a nice Tinyhawk one.
I'm pretty happy cuz I just picked one up super excited 😊
"I'm an advanced pilot" as he crashes into everything. lol
Crashing takes skill! :-)
😂😂😂
as we say in Greece even rocks laugh at him
Love your videos! Great personality on camera 🎥
Thank you!
Great vid my friend. And yes in theory it's great 😁😁😁 Next time a helmet ?? Nice that you make everyone enthusiastic. Have a nice day and till the next one. 🖐🖐🖐🇳🇱🇳🇱🇳🇱
Brilliant introduction video for people wanting. To get into fpv. I myself learned with the Tinyhawk from EMAX. Definitely gives you confidence before getting the bigger boys. Great reviews my friend. Cheers and keep them coming. :)
Did your tinyhawk come with gogs or a controller? Not sure where to purchase those, or what I need if it's my first drone :)
My favorite drone reviewer. Ty
This one seems to work a lot better then the pro as in signal transmission feed less static
I Love this fpv drone
the best video to teach how to turn on the drone thank you!!!
That looks great and you explained it all very well. I have an advanced drone but I bought before thinking and couldn't fly it. I might use this to train myself up. Thanks!
Great review!
Would have liked to see you take it for a spin outside though.
can you somethime review the Syma X25 PRO? i have seen other people reviewing it but you're the best drone reviewer of them all so.
Wow you could make a lot of peoples Christmas, with all the toys around your house. You could play Santa. lol
I sometimes do
Got the mobula 7 on the way for my first fpv drone looking forward to it! Might get this for my dad
Finally, what I was waiting for, great video
Very good video Captain drone! about a year ago I sold my DJI drones & started keeping marine fish but recently I've been watching your videos & really wanting to get a new drone! 😀👍
Decent starter kit! I like it! I have been wanting to get into Gov and this may be exactly what I need! Thanks for the great video! Hair and lighting looking good!
Nice. This has wetted my appetite for a one. 👍
Hi Captain Drone, first off I enjoy your videos, always informative and fun.
You mention not wearing glasses with this little starter drone, I’m a 53 year old glasses wearer for close vision ie reading books. Interesting that you found the screen could move forwards and back so I’ll certainly give it a try. What alternatives goggle wise would you suggest for a glasses wearer.
David.
All googles are going to look kind of blurry to you if your eye prescription is strong. You'd have to search for googles designed to slip over your glasses. I reviewed a pair a long time ago: th-cam.com/video/k5iFONGTGqE/w-d-xo.html
Super helpful video review. Just bought this today. Also purchased the SG906 Beast Pro 2 a couple of weeks ago. I only buy drones recommended by Steve.
The best way to learn to fly fpv is fly in acro from the beginning. But the first step should be flight simulator. 1-2 hour in sim should be enough.
Im looking fw to buy my 1st fpv drone, which smulator do you suggest? can i use any control?
@@dronefeverpty9594 start from rc control system, buy it before anything else and use sim. Liftoff, Velocidrone, FPVFreeRider any of them
@@mikenomatter thanks a lot! ill do so.
nice dude i really like it
Totally Awesome!!! Can you do a video on how to use the dji fpv goggles with mavic mini or pro that would be awesome.!!! 😁👍👍
The DJI MAVIC MINI is a camera drone and not an FPV drone. DJI FPV GOOGLES are for the FPV HOBBY which is different then the slow moving camera drone hobby. This is why DJI also sells their very large BOX googles for the MAVIC and PHANTOM, except they are not yet compatible with the MINI.
I just purchased this drone. It is easy to learn on, makes it fun. However the frame seems to be flimsy. After about 30 minutes of flying and crashing into the walls a lot, the struts on one of the motors broke at the joint where it attaches to the frame. So it seems it's not made for too much bouncing around. I tried to epoxy it back together but the glue wont' stick for more than 3-6 crashes.
I put my thumb up
Thank you and that was a nice review...looking forward to do some fpv flying
Hmmm..... thinking of getting myself a fpv after watching this review.
I like your videos so much 😻 I'm from Cambodia🇰🇭✌️
Cool little FPV learner drone 👍👍😍😍
I wish I could have an FPV drone in full spectrum with infrared light attached to fly through haunted houses. Definitely would need one with a much better camera, though.
Very nice home.
Aww, no in-flight video demo? Ah well, there's plenty of those. Thanks for the review, and I'm seriously considering buying one!
Amazing Fpv drone for the price, amazing test and review video 👍😁👍
Well I don't hundred percent agree that camera drones are beginner dronesit does take some time to understand how to manipulate the Drone and the camera in order to get really great footage. Yes I agree from a control and flying aspect an FPV drone requires more practice to fly as its all manual control. Also a steeper learning curve. Reminds me when I used to fly RC helicopters as that has a steep learning curve as well. After a while you develop what's called muscle memory when it comes to flying an FPV QUADCOPTER. Great little drone tho for beginners . Love your content , and channel always something creative and new .. cheers
This was exactly what I was looking for! Great video! Very easy to understand! Hi5🙌
Glad it was helpful!
DJI is definitely not completely beginner. Drones like phantom, Mavic and inspire is used by Professionals for cinematic scenes.
BEGINNER DRONE is defined as a person receiving a BOX and opening the BOX and having everything necessary to fly with no skill set. Every GPS drone on the market is considered a drone that someone with no flight experience could fly. DJI markets their drones in this way. As noted in my video, where the SKILL comes with DJI drones is in the ability of the pilot to be able to operate the camera to get cinematic video or photos. This is the only thing that separates the BEGINNER from the PRO when it comes to DJI, YUNEES, AUTEL, PARROT drones.
In my opinion he is saying that it does'nt take any amount of skill to fly one of those drones. The drone does everything by itself in fact, you always have altitude hold with those..That is not a pilot just someone who is navigating the drone a bit. yes it takes some skill to frame pretty pictures...But thats sonething someone can literally do with their eyes closed with those drones...Go full acro and that's a pilot. Sorry thats mho. And don't take it as an insult. But i always see pilots of DJI and other altitude hold drones saying they taught someone to fly..Well ya did'nt, you basically just taught them how to navigate a self flying drone. Kind of like saying a bicycle rider can do full motocross.
Mine arrived today... can not wait! Thank you captain drone
turn the controller on before the vehicle always even if there is a safe thing with the electronics, its good habit.
I sometimes take my drones to a local high school. And usually see fpv guys zooming through the sky. They seem kind of snobby and usually won't give me the time of day. Oh well. That's Massachusetts for ya. 🤷♂️.
Ha ha... probably because they have the head gear on. Just ask them a question about the hobby and they'll be your best friend.
Roger St martin Bunch of Massholes ; )
Great review, thank you Captain Drone!
its just my opinion any whoop in advanced mode should to acro...is why i have to return this set.
could you maybe review some fpv goggles and controllers
Yes I watch it every time he uploads
Sounds like a good quad. I been looking around for information on range.
Not very far, maybe 100 meters.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 ok thank you.
Great video! And thanks for the heads up for those of us that wear glasses!
Nice package. Great place to start. 🏆👍🌟👊🏅✔
Wish this was out when i started flying fpv!!! Would have been a lot better then the 300$ RtF Grasshopper F-210 from gearbest that just flew to the left whenever it wanted and put a hole in the siding on my house lol!!! It ended up flying left into the woods and i never found it!! This would have saved me a lot of money and i would probably know how to fly acro if u had this Haha!!! Thanks for the Great Review!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
. 👍😀👍
Ok Captain. Will the drone fly into the kitchen grab a Molson and bring it back to you ?
Good Lord ! I'm sure I could wreck the heck outta this one !!
If flying outside- It most likely will not return to ya if battery goes low, right?
So I'm a noob !
Anyway, as usual excellent review !
Wulfy
When the battery goes low, the low voltage cutoff will engage and it will immediately land. As for getting a beer. Yes it has that option, but first you must attach a note to it and fly it to your wife and kids. The note should say.... Bring me a Beer Please
Great quad
Who do you consider to be the best company so far i tried about 6 bands and to be honest eachine has been the worst of of the ones i have tried 3in and less. But i bought the zino 2 pro because of you review. Has a camera drone but now im looking for maybe a 5 in or 4 in freestly fpv.
If looking for FPV, all of these companies make the best product in that category: IFLIGHT, FLYWOO, GEPRC, HGLRC, REKON, BETAFPV. When you see any product by EACHINE, you must understand that EACHINE did not make it, but rather one of the companies I just mentioned, made it for EACHINE.
New subscriber... another great video and review. At just over $100 this is an awesome beginner drone, and will make a great Christmas gift. Thanks!
Thank you & welcome to the channel!
The DJI mini has hurt the racing drone market and I'm glad. Because who wants to spend hundreds of dollars on a quadcopter or drone and it only gets two to three minutes of flight time. Into the super small quadcopters can get 10 minutes or more I won't spend another dime. But I will get the DJI mini drone well worth it
Yikes, you may be missing something about the FPV Hobby. It is a business in the millions and even has a place on ESPN. The Mavic Mini is a beginner social media camera drone with tiny motors and thin plastic build. FPV Race/Freestyle Quads are carbon fiber with the most powerful brushless motors on the planet. It takes a battery more powerful than a DJI Mavic battery to power the motors, and the motors will drain every once of the battery in under 3 minutes if full throttle is constant. So in summary... I think I need to get you into to FPV race/freestyle hobby so you can see the dark side of the moon. :-)
🤦🏼♂️🤷🏼♂️🤣
Nice tiny drone and video Steve. Only like GPS drones.
omg your house layout makes me think about nick burns house!
Pretty cool, thank you
Nice content brother. I'm thinking of getting one of this for my dad.
Hi sir, I like your review. Can you please tell me if this drone can make like FPV moves like backflips, frontflips and stuff like that? How much meters is also the range on this little drone?
Kind regards Max
In the review If I did not fly the drone outside and do flips, then it means my version was unable to do that.
I just bought one, Thanks Captain Drone. I’m just wanting to buy more batteries. Can I get a 4.5 V? Will it hurt it as it came with a 3.8v
I believe it should work fine.
Sir the arrma senton 6s blx please make a video
Thanks Got It!!
I’m sold, lol. Thanks Capt.
Captain done I have a question what is the best starter kit in your opinion
No best since they are all designed for beginners. EMAX and BETAFPV are the most popular. Check out my review of the EMAX BEGINNER TINYHAWK FREESTYLE KIT and the BETAFPV ADVANCED BEGINNER KIT.
Great video, I'm not a beginner but who can turn down another indoor fpv drone with those options for around 100 bucks. I currently fly the full speed leader120. With winter coming I need more indoor fpv. Thanks
Hi captain I just looked for fpv drone on utube and there are none I mean I put on vr headset and see vr racing it must be a buzz just to see so can you please try to record the actual vr fpv footage and post please so anyone with a phone and vr headset that sell for few dollars pounds can see wot you see and maybe speed some up to but seriously I'm surprised there is none on utube only video of fpv
Second thanks I was a drug addict and recovered from getting hep-c I'm now clean and on meds thanks to people like you I have a new hobby I got sjrc f11 pro and 2 days ago got mavic mini flyed once but I'm looking for my next fix and fpv is a buzz just to watch I'm going to get a whoop next I'm learning alot I tryed a cheap drone in my house with vr headset and wow to try and know were you are in space is hard but I need more room just waiting for no wind lol and it cold here two thanks from uk
Wow Captain Drone...that's what I was looking for! Beginner here and I really wanted to start practicing at home. I am looking to make some drone images of my lazy Cat's...Lol
I see you have so many different Drones..very impressive!! What takes me into a spinning are the new 2022 FAA requirements part 107, which lately supposed to update big time...WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS ON THIS? Thanks
They do not apply to flying in your home
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 what happens when you make Videos that you sell?
@@cleoandtazzy I do not sell videos???
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 listen to the part 107.. different between recreational and commercial is Monitize in any way. If my TH-cam Channel get's Monitized in theory my Drone Images or Vids are monetized. I am not the one hairsplitting the FAA is.
They want to clean up 😵💫
Can the drone binding to jumper tx18? (I have the jumper tx18), can you explain? Thanks
I don't think so because I'm not sure if the receiver inside is a brand name D8 receiver.
As soon as I get cyborg eyes I'm gonna buy one of those.
good
great video! can this drone accept larger batteries and fly outdoors? if not what's the best beginner fpv drone for outdoor flying?
You could be a slightly larger battery. The next one up is the EMAX Tiny Hawk beginner bundle.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 do you know if you can you use the EZ controller and goggles with the Tiny Hawk
@@ozoneflysurfer9491 Googles Yes, but probably not the controller. You'd have to be able to bind the controller to the Tiny Hawk and I'm not sure if you can. Emax would be able to tell you.
I am kinda confused do you fly in intermediate mode on all your drones or do you do full acro... theres quite a difference. I have always thought you said you always fly in full acro..Did you mean only on this drone Steve? I can fly all these but acro is a bit more hairier and someone who can fly in advanced mode will be highly challenged to fly in acro mode...Acro is a totally dif animal, but fun now to fly in. So on your bigger drones are you in acro or a throttle management self lev mode?
This drone does not have full ACRO, it is more similar to a cross between HORIZON and ANGLE mode. Anyone who has been flying FPV for a short while will eventually fly in ACRO since that is where the most fun is at. If you watch any of my videos with me flying FPV Drones, I'm pretty much always in ACRO mode.
Bro Excellent videos
I have watched the video twice now and i cant find the answer, it comes whit a usb cable that you can plug from the controller to you pc but you dont say if it works in a flight sim! Do mind cecking it for me? Thanks
Compared to the Eachine E013 plus which would you say would be a better buy and why?
The EMAX is the better buy
I bought one emax ezpilot whoop style drone only for $59 from bangood . I thought it had betaflight and i could bind it to my t12 . ☹
I should get this!
I bought one of these, and it worked for a few flights and then it quit working properly... do you know how I can return it???
Thank you for your video! Do you know if you can use this remote on a SIM?
I make hundreds of videos and if the remote works with a sim I show it in the video
#CaptainDroneSquad
Thanks a lot. Great video.
Hey steve.. I no this vid is dated.. But can u remember if the rc with this kit will operate eny of the other emax range of drones? Thanks bud
I don't recall, but an educated guess would say the remote was probably a D8 protocol which is a common EMAX bind protocol.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 many thx steve.. Stay safe dude
im guessing that is the same radio that comes with the tinyhawk, if so what type of radio will i need so i can upgrade it in the future?
Watch this: th-cam.com/video/spjoCQBd3v4/w-d-xo.html
