Flying something small like this indoors, be sure to turn Air Mode off. When you bump into ALL THE THINGS indoors, Air Mode reacts too abruptly and will actually cause you to crash more.
What's air mode?
@@SylvieTheBagel It's a feature in BetaFlight that helps give authority when at zero throttle. Something small that's flown indoors, you don't spend much time if any at zero throttle. When you bump into something, instead of it being just a glancing blow it reacts severely by ramping up the motors trying to correct itself, usually resulting in a crash. But outdoors, you should always have it on.
@@PortalFPV huh. I had no idea. I have a TH2 Freestyle, which for some reason doesn't come with air mode on... Thanks, will definitely turn on.
@@PortalFPV so that's what your mode is
*air sorry!😂
Bought this 2 months ago based on your recommendation and i’m blown away! I had never flown fpv and this is one of the best ways if not the best way to get into fpv. I’ve crashed my th3 so many times and only about a week ago, some cracks started to show and i’ve got an extra frame for just 12 bucks lying around. Already got the TH 2 Freestyle for outdoors and its nice how it all works with the radio and display of the th 3 rtf kit. Thanks a lot for your great work!
How much overall?
I just got it today. Man it's hard 😂
@@Mental_Illboy how much was it ?
@@goldwally1428 I payed €312 including 3 batteries. (With 10% total discount)
I still have absolutely no control over the drone though.
@@Mental_Illboy thank you. It sucks I still wont be able to afford this, thanks for answering tho. just practice you will master it eventually.
Been flying larger quads for 4 or 5 months now, so this video isn't super relevant to me, but I love all your content. Wonderful stuff for beginners, this is where I send friends who are interested in taking their very first steps into FPV. Great production value and thoughtful content.
4 or 5 months your still a beginner
@@brandonchambers4195 not necessarily I'm in the league and I've only been flying 8 months

Thanks, Matt. I've been looking for a basic first time kit for my boys.
This seems quite nice and seems very portable. and I like the small profile as they generally seem quite manoeuvrable
Awesome man! Thanks for the review bro. As always, keep up the great work.
Best FPV video for beginners I have ever seen!
I jumped into the FPV hobby about 6-7 weeks ago. I went into it with a TinyHawk II. My computer is on the verge of being "not good enough" for sims, but I did download a sim, and after only about 5-6 hours on the sim, I was flying in acro mode reasonably well. The TinyHawk kit's been awesome for me. The TinyHawk III looks better too, so I am tempted to get one. The only thing I changed when I got my TinyHawk II, was that I bought a better transmitter (after about a month). That helped me quite a bit, but the stock controllers are OK for someone who's new to it all. This newer controller looks better than the one supplied in the TinyHawk II, so you may not even need to get something better initially. Shame about the DVR issues. Cheers for the review.
1. Try CurryKitten sim, go into settings, set resolution to lower, and you'll get 300+ FPS.
2. Try the TH 2 Freestyle. Powerful, stupidly, and works great. Or, get a 6s BabyHawk. It does about 70 MPH, and is super fun and powerful, while still being usable.
Trust me and go for a 5 inch. You will never regret it
Great video, well done man!
You made me want to buy this.
Very Nice that you put all thinks under the Video
I bought this last week, and they have updated the kit a bit, addressing some of your concerns. There is now a micro manual attached to the goggles and a leaflet that folds out with some basic info about the kit. The radio/ controller also has stickers now, which I find very helpful.
Thank you for the review by the way.
FLytime? Or battery?
@@Drueckstart You get a few minutes out of each battery. So buy at least four extra if you want to get some flight time out of it
Great content for beginners looking at bundles. Thanks!
I just bought the tinyhawk 2 and that controller is a HUUUUGE step up and the goggles!
Love your content as always man!
Omg I love it so much. I don’t really have that much money, but I am definitely going to ask my parents to get it for my birthday, because I have recently been very interested in the fpvdrone hobby and this is super easy and cheap. This video really helped, tysm.
thanks this was super helpful cause im a begginer in fpv
This is perfect for indoor Flying,
Thanks sooooo much for making this video! I really think that this will invite more people into FPV and is a easy way to get started! Thanks and I love your videos!!!

@@S4M4R1T4N you do realize youtube turned it off right?
The exact same thing happens with DVR on the BetaFPV VR01 goggles (at least when they're used with the Tinyhawk II Race). Every small bit of breakup seems to be amplified in the DVR.
Excellent review. Good honest feedback.
Even great that they have brushless motors. Seems like a nice one for practising or just basic flying.
Great review!
Dude, you’re the most impressive thing in this video! I really enjoyed watching you work 👍
He's the most impressive huh? Change that J to a G huh?
@@jd2161 LOL
@@jd2161 😂😂😂😂
Just ordered one last night to see if i enjoy fpv flying.
Wonderful video!
interesting content Matt Pochwat. I smashed the thumbs up on your video. Always keep up the brilliant work.
Nice to see the controller and googles upgrade. my TH2 kit had issues, the throttle would suddenly drop when positioned around hover point and the battery box cable for the headset was not held in properly.
Got the betafpv just a month been on the sim for hours and really helps with doing irl but yeah few downsides but for the price great starter
Nice review 👌
Thanks very nice
great vid!!!!!
Hi watching from Philippines
Great review. The set would be a little better value if it came with at least a couple of batteries for beginners, but 1s batteries are cheap. Its just going to be kinda a bummer for someone new and excited to get this kit and figure out they can only fly for short time before having to stop and charge instead of being able to change a battery and keep going.
I have started with tinyhawk 2 freestyle, and You are totally right googles and controller where the first two i have upgraded. I love Your content , and I think You are helping alot of people getting into the hobby, please don't stop what You are doing ! Thumbs up as always ! :D
My first goggles were BetaFPV VR01 (usually shipped in beginner RTF kit) and it has the same problem with DVR. Exactly same white flashes and breakups when the goggle screen only display minor glitches.
Yes
2:02 didn't expect to see a "kakao and friends" fan :)
Please make a video on how to record the emax goggles that come with it 🙏🙏
May i just say watching your video feels so fresh and easily understandable. Ive been in the hobby for years now but I often like watching your videos just because they're nice.
One thing I'd like to ask though is how easy is it to move from smth like this RTF kit to smth like the Tinyhawk x to a toothpick to a 5 inch... Like how easy is it to move up from beginner gear to more "deep in the hobby" gear
Can you pls do an updated guid to what to buy based on different budgets
Hi matt
I just want to ask what is the top speed of the tinyhawk 3?
thanks a lot for the videos, it helped a lot when i started fpv and continue with them!
I’d love to see the tinyhawk3 compared to the GepRC Tinygo RTF. The tinygo RTF kit recently got an upgraded controller
Great vid! One question can it take strong breezes or it stays still, wait it's more like 2 questions, can it take hits if it crashes?
Bro you need to try the Emax nanohawk x it is super good
Do you have a review on the mobula 7 and how it stacks up against the tiny hawk?
As an owner of a holystone HS720G, i still want this tiny boi
I purchased a beta FPV pro a while back and I can fly it kinda good. In a simulator like Liftoff I am quite a bit better, especially at larger drones. I have been hesitant to buy a larger drone because I am too worried about a one flight and destroy scenario.
Just gotta take it slow once you start flying in real life. Stay closer to the ground and keep a low camera angle so that you fly slower. You should be able to fly consistently without crashing in the sim though!
@@MattPochwat I can stunt fly in the sim and only sometimes crash. I can fly conservatively in a confined space and pretty much not crash. Like that one parking garage level, I think it's called Zero Hour or something like that.
Looks like they have finally revamped the controller and goggles they include with the rtf set. I remember the old ones had some minor criticism due to poor performance.
Great Vid!, but i wonder what is the simulator you use for the clip for beginners?
What would you consider the best RTF Whoop kit be atm? And or best start up Remote, Goggles and Whoop? Something that I won't grow out of right away. 👍
Hey, great video, thanks! I have the Tinyhawk 2 and I'm surprised by how fast that roll was at 2:42. Are you using the default rates? I' tried changing my rates but even with full roll and no throttle I crash every single time indoors. It seems like my roll rate isn't fast enough. As you can tell, I'm relatively new to fpv. Do you have any advice?
Yep I always try to use default rates in my reviews. The Tinyhawk 2 might be different though. You should definitely try increasing the rates. I'm sure it'll help!
You know I had 5 inch HD drone and I sold all thing with dji goggles. Now, I need to fly as a fun thing so for me it's very good one to fly in and out door
i wonder if you can get pretty good range out of the goggles with a patch and decent omni antenna running an 800mw vtx?
I just got this kit, and have really been enjoying it. I was excited to connect the transmitter to my computer for use with Sims, but ran into the problem that while my computer is new and capable of sims, it is a mac and the E8 does not play nicely with MacOS. so I picked up an xbox controller but the form factor is not close enough to help with the muscle memory I want to develop. Next attempt was the 3.5mm sim connector, which I can not get to calibrate properly as it does not recognize the throttle channel at all. I was curious @Matt if you have any guidance or pointers? I am not opposed to purchasing a betafpv controller or something
Bought this drone with your recommendation of upgraded Radoiomaster Tx16s controller, can you help me with setup? Or suggest a link?
For you tiny/indoor cinematic drone that you linked in the description...would that be a good drone to do inside real estate with? Or would I need a better camera on it.
Hey matt, could you do a video on omni and patch goggle/drone antennas and which ones you recommend because I find it to be really difficult and confusing choosing antennas and there's very few guides on them.
I really don't fly much analog these days so I would be the wrong guy to ask. My favs are the menace rc pico patch and axii 2 (or just the foxeer lollipop) omni. I usually just stick to what I know.
I have this drone but i think some motors are broken becease every time i want to fly some of them want to spin but for some reason can’t. Do i need to buy new motors or is there something else wrong. Tips are welcome
Kinda thinking of getting into a fpv drone for fun. I’ve got a dji mini 2 that I swapped the joystick inputs on. Is that something that’s possible on this or other fpv drones??
Ie make the right thumb your throttle and yaw. Left thumb stick your forward back right and left. Played the DRL game and found swapping them in the game made me 100% better at control at least in the game
It will be nice to know this set vs the new beta FPV one ?
Is there a flight simulator that I can wear my DGJ V2 goggles with? I have the big black DJI controller for just normal FPV drones as well
Hey Guy what controller were you holding at the beginning of the video
Hey Matt, you mentioned using the controller on a simulator, do you think it will work with something like liftoff?
What simulator were you showing at the beginning? Thinking about getting a simulator to practice.
I have this kit but I would like a low cost 4 or 5 inch freestyle drone, if possible I would like to take advantage of the radio and the glasses, is there any way? Which do you recommend? I'm from Brazil.
I want a Tinyhawk, I fly Spektrum ..... wish they would do a Spektrum version
Is there also a full kit for the mobula 6?
Im only getting around 1.5 minutes of flying time in which the specs say around 4 minutes....any thought on such a short flight time? Thanks!
How do I update my taranis qx7? I’m new to the hobby and I’ve found out that in order for the receiver on my drone to work with the radio I’ve got to update the radio.
aww daang, i flew my cousins mobula 6 a couple times and learned to fly and had so much fun. im only 15 so i dont really have the money for this because i break all my rc cars 😂 but hopefully ill get a drone sometime and start making some vids on tiktok of one going around.
Hey Matt and all,
I recently got this RTF kit and I want to get some extra batteries and possibly better (diversity) antennas.
Can you suggest any compatible 1S batteries?
For the antenna question: do I need to change the video transmitter's antenna as well as goggle's antennas (into maybe circular polarized omni+patch antennas)?
Do you think it will improve the video? Is this worth the effort?
Hi Matt, sorry if it's out of context, but Google's really irritate my eyes and would like to know if there are any screens to replace. Do you have any recommendations 🙏🙏🙏🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
Would you still recommend the Mobula6 of is the Tinyhawk III better now?
Can we use it's controller and headset with other custom fpv drones?
This RTF kit is better than the TinyGo?? What about the the remotes are they both able to link with others drones??
I’m looking forward to get a RTF kit this Christmas but I’m undecided between this tinyhawk and the tinygo. A video comparing both sides by side will be perfec!.
low chance of anyone seeing this , but recommendations for controller if i just wanna start on sim before buying drone or headset ?
Can u use the goggles and the transmitter with a nazgule f5 or somethign bigger? Anyone?
Can i use this controller with any pc software to learn to fly before i actually fly the Tinyhawk 3? if yes please let me know.thank you!
Can you use the controller from this RTF kit for simulators?
The best simulator is DCL by thqnordic it has acro mode perfect for begginers to learn to fly before actually doing it in IRL.
should I register that tiny drine too?
Would I be able to connect it to my Playstation and use it on simulators that supports the transmitter function?
Can the radio and goggles on this be used on the Babyhawk 2?
Can i use the controller for a simulator on the computer? With what simulator does it 100% work? I read that it didnt work for some of the simulators?
Would you/anyone reading recommend the tinyhawk 3 drone over the tinyhawk 2 freestyle? I have a little experience in flying the dji mini 2
It just depends on your priorities and how much time you can practice in a simulator. The Tinyhawk freestyle is more agile but does not have any protection. With enough time in the simulator first it’s definitely possible to start off with the TH Freestyle. If you don’t have the ability to practice in a sim, then having the propeller guards on the tiny hawk 3 will be very helpful. You can also fly the TH3 inside.
I’m getting in to fpv should I buy it
What simulator would you recommend for beginners?
My thing is the ready to fly means you need to get everything you don't have to buy it and cost more it's cheaper to get the radiator fly you'd have to pay for shipping on so many parts otherwise and hoping it all works
Hi Matt, great content !! I saw you run Velocidrone on a Mac, what are your specs? I have a 2020 High-End Mac and the simulator runs choppy :(
I don't recommend. Even on my M1 Mac it's not very good. Gotta lower the resolution a lot. I can't run it smoothly at the native resolution even with the lowest settings.
Can you use the controller in a simulator
What's a good sim
I'm about to order this soon since I have the dji fpv I'm scared for it crash & get destroyed completely I've got lucky two time by replacing the Propellers
Can the controller be changed from mode 2 to 1?
Thanks for the review. Do you know if that transmitter works with Mac OS for simulator flying?
Yes I could use it on my Mac
I’m a noob, i have flown RC planes since 2000. I have no problem flying quads at LOS. But i have a problem using goggles. I get confused where I’m at far as from the ground. Any ideas. Thanks
what is the range on the drone?
can you add an amazon link
I would be interested in your take on the Geprc Tinygo 4K.
I've heard good things!
CAN we use de radiocommamde and de Google With a réal fpv drone
man I really like how that tinyurl is a massive ad with malware on it.
