Ah Hemm !!!; so glad Captain "the Blades of Death" were kept under control as we would be very sad if they were deployed onto your goodself!!!; great review and refreshing to see a "Drone" ; now, if we could just see that DJI Inspire 1 review !!!!!!!
Hey Steve. I'm still so impressed with your demos and reviews on all the RC products. The editing is so well done! Have those Cap stickers on my new Mini3P case and battery charger. LOL Thanks.
Wow amazing flying, production value and editing! One note of caution - when landing on gravel actually try to avoid this bc the small bits of gravel fly up and get sucked into your motors and essentially destroy them in short order
This is funny because he kept saying "fingers off the joystick" and I was like...okay, when? Until the end when he said he wasn't giving any input and it stayed straight and I thought, whoa! I prefer 5 and under just because I still enjoy a drone that flips and runs like a hummingbird on espresso, but I'm impressed by this behemoth!
I've had this drone for over a week now, brilliant bit of kit. Amazing sound when you open up the throttle. Upgraded to the M10 GPS chip module and fitted a buzzer.
Be careful that's a nile crocodile!!lol It's a man eater but what a way to go! Steve you have to do a heavy lifters episode. Those are some of the burliest engines I've seen on a drone and what a top speed. We are getting into guided missile territory. The kinetic energy that thing would pack at top speed with a big battery is devastating. But talk about being able to film any RC plane or car for that matter is truly epic. I hoped you were going to circle Jedi Steve's plane while filming his flight. They could be helicopter motors!! Thanks for another great review. PS are we going to get an RC car and or boat week this summer too?
You got your planes mixed up. F15 eagle, f14 tomcat. You said f14 eagle lol. I love the o3. I'm glad that I waited to get into digital. Love the goggles 2
She's a thing of beauty, the red washers are a nice touch, it's a little sad they copied the iflight protector sides and XT60 connector despite it's inconvenient plug angle. Would have preferred a diversity nano RX. The thing really lacking with these biguns is foldable arms for travel. What's extra in the guts? LED controller board? Spark inhibitor? Gpsmate? Finder beeper?
All footage is direct out of the camera (DJI and GoPro unless otherwise indicated on the screen). Footage from FPV goggles would be what you would consider to be non-stabilized.
Always love your videos!! I wonder if you could one day make a video about why someone would get a long-range FPV drone. In other words, what is a long-range FPV drone good for and who is it for? I haven’t been able to find a video about this anywhere.
The FPV hobby started with Racing through gates at high speed. The Freestyle was added and many pilots flew through and around buildings close by. Then when technology in transmission improved, a new segment opened for long range FPV drones. Those are used for exploration, usually up and down mountains, or along rivers.
I've said it before Steve, this is another item which you have convinced me "I really need". We used to call a forward, or negative loop, a "Bunt", in the diesel powered control line days. Now that big battery is going to put some g forces on those Velcro, straps. Although it probably alters the C of G and moves it closer the roll centre, but what do I know. Have a great day.
Flight times in the 5 min for a 7-inch drone sounds terrible to me (just a personal preference). I’d like to see how it does with a huge Li Ion !! Thanks for the review.
I see that GepRC have changed the FC per their page. Changelog May 6, 2024: GEPRC Crocodile75 V3 FC changed from SPAN F722-BT-HD V2 to GEP-F722-BT-HD V3. Are you aware of any issues that they were having with the original FC? Thank you
Beautiful drone. Nice review. I’d love to have it. But where would I fly such a beast? Currently loving the Happymodel Mobula8. I can fly it in my yard.
Okay Captain, the GEPRC Crocodile 75 V3 OR the iFlight Chimera 7 HD PRO - if you could only have one of them, which one and why? (I saw your review of the Chimera 7 and had been thinking of getting it.)
Hi, just wondering if you have any info on the insta 360 go2? They don’t offer it on their website anymore nor any of its accessories. Do you know if they are going to come out with a new model. I have one and really like it. It’s really is my go two camera. I wanted to get a couple more of those hat clips and was thinking of getting a second camera with the 64 gb. Just wondering if you had any insight? Love the videos!
@@nazahelbrum3318 Yes, the FPV drone hobby is mostly always manual mode. Only DJI makes the beginner modes so that an FPV drone (like the Avata) flies like a beginner DJI Mini or DJI MAVIC.
When people ask me "which would i prefer" I always have to say that, what I prefer (considering my experience and usage) is 100% not what someone else would prefer. You can't go wrong with either.
Hey, I also bought the crocodile 75 V3. I have a problem with the propellers which in flight traction came loose and stopped spinning (motors work) The drone fell down but it works. How to install the propellers correctly? Put on the propeller from the engine this side where there is a bigger hole, indentation? Do you have the inscriptions on the top or bottom? Fully tighten the propeller? Fully up to the engine tighten the propellers?
Hi Captain Drone, I saw your review on the the C-fly faith mini drone and decided to try my hand flying a drone. As this is my first one I wanted a biginners drone as when it comes to the DJI mini pro, just to expensive at this stage of learning how to handle a drone that has a bit of distance. I will be using the drone in very secluded areas up north of Vancouver island and neer water and wondering what I can use for a floating kit for this drone. I am a little concerned while flying over water and it lands by accident in the water so I want err on the side of caution. hope you can direct me to a kit as I do know they are not that heavy and the drone is only 239g itself. Warren
I don't know enough to decide which version I need to purchase. ELRS 2.4Ghz vs ELRS 915 vs RBS Nano RX. Same exact setup as yours (transmitter and goggles). What would you suggest for long range?
Helo, good video! Is it possible to fly this kind of drone like a 3d quadcopter( without camera and without gps ) for lighting weight? With led stripes on arms for good view.. Thank's!
I don't think you know about this, but sadly unfortunately, Steve's dad passed away already, not long ago, maybe a week or 2 weeks ago something like that. 😔🙏🏻
Like always loved your videos Mr. everything fly guy😂 better known as captain, my captain, I have flown Dji products far is the FPV, And Avada Would like to go into manual mode soon and I like that Drone maybe I’ll pick me up one, but I will let you know you can fly anything😮😮🎉
Great video! In it you did something that I have always wanted. How did you have the OSD elements in your flight video? I can't find anything online on how to do it. I have the original DJI FPV system in my GEPRC drone and use the DJI goggles V2.
FPV drones do not require two cameras??? In this video I added a GoPro in order to show how good the DJI camera is in comparison. FPV drones come with a camera mount just in case the owner wishes to attach a special camera for a special purpose.
It just does not make any sense why you would own that in Canada and not be out mountain surfing it.... Sad Really.. such a glorious opportunity missed
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 O ok .. Hey what a great reason for a summer vacation out west... ;-) Hook up to a toy hauler & take the show on ("Capitan Drone's Great Canadian Rockies Rolling RC Review Tour.") the road! hehehe Thanks for all the reviews CD
This is a super ugly drone, looks like a 5yr drew it. Wish they would make cooler looking frome, its been the same ol same ol x carbon for a very long time.
Thanks!
Thank you Don!
Was on the purchase list but after this instructional and indept video ordered the beast. Thank you for your time and effort in our hobby.
Can tell by the genuine excitement in your voice how good she is! 😃😎✊
Beast of an FPV 👍.
A drone video?! Nice!! Lol love the channel
awsome video captain

That is a big FPV drone and good review Steve.
God Steve what power not yet conquered my FPV Drones yet but i'll get there great review again Captain.
Hey Steve. I'm still so impressed with your demos and reviews on all the RC products. The editing is so well done! Have those Cap stickers on my new Mini3P case and battery charger. LOL Thanks.
Excellent, thank you
Enjoyed Capt. Will stick with the Avata. It screams enough for me. Thanks.

Good afternoon captain really insane drone cool review
That's really massive in fpv segments. And offcourse your flying is awesome.❤
Thank you
Why take off on a gravel road? crap everywhere. Nice drone and flight Steve :)
Landing pad was left at home.
How does this compare to the MK5D-LR7?
How beautiful it is
You got your planes mixed up. F15 eagle, f14 tomcat. You said f14 eagle lol. I love the o3. I'm glad that I waited to get into digital. Love the goggles 2
Yup, brain fart. You’ll see why in a future video… I had flown the F14 hours earlier.
❤ great review captain. That beast is big 😍
i would love 1 of these
Fun video ! 😃
Mega power cruiser !
😎
Love your videos buddy keep up the good work
Really great footage
Magic!
Excellent Video. Amazing. Thank You Steve.

Beeper yes. LEDs no.
Beautiful quad. Great review Captain. Thanks❤
how is it with all the bush fires?
Still ongoing and still smoke
I live in australia so i know how it is with all the bush fires
GEPRC baut zur Zeit coole Copter um die O3 z.B. auch den MK5D O3.
Hey could u do review on ,chasing f1 underwater drone ? Someday looks pretty nice
Would be the perfect quad for long range flights across lake opinicon
Great review thank you
Incredible thing, and super explained 👍
I want to fly FPV Drones tooooo
What's the best beginner simulator setup?
Thanks
The online service STEAM apparently has some of the best FPV sims.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 thanks 😊
Was the footage from 7:57 to 8:17 stabilized or RAW ?
All footage is direct out of the camera (DJI and GoPro unless otherwise indicated on the screen). Footage from FPV goggles would be what you would consider to be non-stabilized.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 Thank you . I was ready to throw my Chimera 7 at the garbage 😁

I NEED one !!!!
For this version, up to $775. Gulp! A chunk of change. But Steve is having fun! Thank you.
Your videos are soo good👍

Usually a change is due to the company saving money by using different components, or previous components are no longer available at a good price.
Beautiful drone. Nice review. I’d love to have it. But where would I fly such a beast? Currently loving the Happymodel Mobula8. I can fly it in my yard.
I have to laugh cause I’m watching this and am like wait I live 5 minutes away
Okay Captain, the GEPRC Crocodile 75 V3 OR the iFlight Chimera 7 HD PRO - if you could only have one of them, which one and why?
(I saw your review of the Chimera 7 and had been thinking of getting it.)
It would be Crocodile 75 v3
For a 30 min fly time, which lithium ion battery would fit with this drone? Thanks for the great review video! 👍
I think GEPRC recommends something like the one they sell on their website (at least a 4000 mAh)
8000, 6s2p, is the newest on their site! I can't wait to try it.
Hi does the current sensor work correctly? I find the span stack is not very good. It’s also missing barometer which means gps rescue isn’t very good.
Hi, just wondering if you have any info on the insta 360 go2? They don’t offer it on their website anymore nor any of its accessories. Do you know if they are going to come out with a new model.

Yes, I believe a new version will be seen this summer
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 thanks for the info.
Thanks for the video Steve - Love your reviews! How does it fly compared to the iFlight Chimera7 V2? ✌❤
It seems to be better tuned
Steve why have crossfire system, with the DJI 03 system can't you fly with DJI controller and goggles?
Yes…. But using the DJI FPV controller is not optimal as it is not designed for the RC hobby.
Fantástic!!!
Hi captain how did you make it hover is this inav?
You just have to be an experienced FPV pilot
@@CAPTAINDRONE798oh so it is still manual control😊
@@nazahelbrum3318 Yes, the FPV drone hobby is mostly always manual mode. Only DJI makes the beginner modes so that an FPV drone (like the Avata) flies like a beginner DJI Mini or DJI MAVIC.
Between the croc75 v3 and moz7, if you were to choose, which one would you prefer? I'm torn between the two
When people ask me "which would i prefer" I always have to say that, what I prefer (considering my experience and usage) is 100% not what someone else would prefer. You can't go wrong with either.
Nice
Hey, I also bought the crocodile 75 V3.
I have a problem with the propellers which in flight traction came loose and stopped spinning (motors work)
The drone fell down but it works.
How to install the propellers correctly?
Put on the propeller from the engine this side where there is a bigger hole, indentation?
Do you have the inscriptions on the top or bottom?
Fully tighten the propeller?
Fully up to the engine tighten the propellers?
Again, watch my video on propellers: th-cam.com/video/WWZImwj-cIc/w-d-xo.htmlsi=g_H_qqRo6jcs3XCL
I like it sounds good

Is this what you’re looking for? th-cam.com/video/w-4CILVXeCQ/w-d-xo.html
Is it me or is it really fast?
Great videography.
I was looking at getting this drone and currently torn between crossfire and elrs for my tx16s. What made you choose crossfire over ELRS?
I'm old school
What's different between this and the Moz7? they seem identical.
Review coming up
Uncle really 30 minute 😮😮😮
I don't know enough to decide which version I need to purchase. ELRS 2.4Ghz vs ELRS 915 vs RBS Nano RX. Same exact setup as yours (transmitter and goggles). What would you suggest for long range?
Most radios today are ELRS, so soon all FPV Drones will mostly be ELRS
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 I'm guessing ELRS 2.4Ghz is superior to 915, am I right?
@@ParaglidingManiac ELRS 2.4 is common in North American and 915 is common is some areas of Europe/Asia
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 Thank you!
Hello 👋🏾 from Montréal Québec it in Canada 🇨🇦 Capitain Drone you didn’t tail the price ove the drone ✌🏾
Hey guys,what drone do you guys think is good for vacation and photograpy?
@@Les_Grossman do you have any other drone to suggest under 320 dollars
Good
Helo, good video!
Is it possible to fly this kind of drone like a 3d quadcopter( without camera and without gps ) for lighting weight? With led stripes on arms for good view.. Thank's!
Yes, you can modify it as you wish
I needs it :-)
awesome vids
How battery life?
All depends on the battery size you use
Better wear gloves! Great video Steve
Steve how is your Dad…? Nice Beautiful and sunny day.
I don't think you know about this, but sadly unfortunately, Steve's dad passed away already, not long ago, maybe a week or 2 weeks ago something like that. 😔🙏🏻
No failsafe test
pretty cool if you have some payload to add that a 5" cant carry. With a nuclear battery, im sure it could even do 1 hr of flight time ;)

Great video! In it you did something that I have always wanted. How did you have the OSD elements in your flight video? I can't find anything online on how to do it. I have the original DJI FPV system in my GEPRC drone and use the DJI goggles V2.
Just connect your cell phone to your goggles and record your cell phone screen.
7.5 thats serious
F15 Eagle*
Not F14 Tomcat.
I had a brain fart as I had just flown the F14
Not gonna lie, i expected more than the stack they put in that beast.
Like what?
I think it’s absolutely absurd that fpv drones still have to have 2 cameras. No one has attempted to streamline the concept? Hero>HDMI out>TX?
FPV drones do not require two cameras??? In this video I added a GoPro in order to show how good the DJI camera is in comparison. FPV drones come with a camera mount just in case the owner wishes to attach a special camera for a special purpose.
how come on these fpv drones the picture is always so stable but they have no gimble "im new to drones don't shoot me"😁😁
Electronic Image stabilization has come a long way & gimbals are no longer necessary in drones with small cameras.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 thank you for the reply and info your channel has helped so much with getting into the drone world
f15
Yup, brain fart on my behalf
There's a women talking on the drone like dji, is this voice from the goggles helmet or drone?
From the radio
It just does not make any sense why you would own that in Canada and not be out mountain surfing it.... Sad Really.. such a glorious opportunity missed

This is a super ugly drone, looks like a 5yr drew it. Wish they would make cooler looking frome, its been the same ol same ol x carbon for a very long time.
Different stokes for different folks. These FPV drones have very limited capabilities. They just do one thing well, not enough for me to buy one.
These are the drones hollywood movie action scenes are made with or TV car commercials, or TV shows, etc.
Do you need to balance the drone? With such a big battery?
Not really, but it would help.
