I finally saw something that I wanted too! iFlight's new Aircraft is a blast. I always liked their Cinewhoop- Bumblebee and now here is my another favourite, DeadCat FPV drone! It looks really beautiful because it is enormous and the bigger the drone is, the more beautiful is it. Really impressive to see a 7" FPV drone as it can carry 300+ grams on it and is really powerful! The powerful 1,800 mAh battery was massive and gave 7 minutes of flight time which was not bad at all! I think what will it do with an epic 5,000+ mAh Battery! The even better thing is that it can easily handle the mass of DJI Action 2, Insta360 one RS and GoPro 10 combined! It is exceptionally large, may it be its propellers, motors or body. It is expensive? Not at all. Such a huge and beautiful RTF FPV Drone costs less then 2,000 USD which is pretty affordable! {Those who think that it is costly should take a look at these prices of Cinematic/Inspection/Agricultural Camera Drones even though some of them are not in the consumer market, like the future DJI Inspire 3 (15,000+ USD), DJI Matrice M30T (10,000+ USD), DJI Agras (20,000+ USD) or the legendary Elios 2 (a whopping 40,000+ USD) and the 10 CM long, 18 Grams of mass of Black Hornet Nano UAV which flies at 18 kph and range is 2 KM (1,90,000+ USD)} Overall, iFlight Chimera 7 HD Pro definitely a really good Profesional FPV Drone for sure that flies very nicely!!! And, also Congratulations for 250K subs Steve! Huge Giveaway Time B)

This has long been my most favourite frame for DJI and long range, the frame is what I like to call a fluke frame that requires very little filtering as the arms are perfect and thick and the chassis (WELL EVERYTHING ABOUT IT) it is by far the best out of all the 7" frames out there. I use 6S Molicell and flight time is around 20 mins at high speed. Fantastic Frame

Recently discovered your channel and I really appreciate all your knowledge and interest in so many gadgets and tech! Question: I'm interested in getting into FPV droness as a new hobbiest and am wondering with a budget of $300, the TinyHawk 3 RTF kit is still the ideal product with a good controller for simulations?
@CAPTAINDRONE7982 жыл бұрын
Yes, for beginners, any of the RTF FPV kits are great. The reason I say that is because the FPV hobby is one of those hobbys where the learning curves are very steep. So getting a kit where everything works together means you are half way there. Next you have to learn how to fly without training wheels. If you have flown a GPS camera drone, those have training wheels. Flying FPV means plenty of crashing before you get good enough not to crash so whatever kit you get, there is a good chance you may destroy the drone in your attempt to learn how to fly, so always fly outdoors in an open field with plenty of soft grass. If you wish to learn more about the FPV hobby, just watch my video series entitled CAPTAIN DRONE FPV FOR BEGINNERS on KZfaq.
