How far it can fly?
@@Srvch77 Would not recommend, its kinda out of date and u can get better for ur money. Go to the intofpv forums if you have any questions.

Hi.. You have given a start to end action analysis of this Eachine x220s quad. I have just ordered an hour before seeing this video. So b4 my quad arrives to me am very much satisfied to see your detailed and superb review. Being a beginner of this hobby I feel informative to start my hobby on fpv using eachine x220s model. Thanks.
May I ask where r u from and how did you buy it ? I'm in Asia and I plan to buy from banggood. But there are a lot bad reviews about them.
Looking at getting my first FPV drone, thanks!
Oh nice
I just got one, DO NOT USE THE INCLUDED CHARGER! it tried blowing mine up by charging it over 4.3v! I reccomend a venom 4s
Me too men
For your first fpv you should get something smaller like a Emax tiny hawk it comes with everything you nee
I built my first one
Nobody crashes more drones than +Dustin Dunnill! Thank you for risking it all to help us make a buying decision Braddah!
+russ lol. You bet Russ 🤙🍻
@@DustinDunnill does it come with the fpv goggles
No but there are very cheap options to get started 🍻
@@DustinDunnill which are best?
Try cheap Beta FPV or Eachine. Pretty good at low cost 🍻
Hey Dustin, I’m new to all this and this video definitely sold me and I am excited to order the thing i need and fly! Thanks for a cool video
Very nice unboxing /review and flight demo as usual! Thanks!
Great video thank you. I've flown DJI stabilized drones for a couple of years and just had a Tinyhawk for a few months and this is my first "next" quad.
Learned to solder and got a receiver for my QX7 and I'm all set to go this coming weekend. Can't wait to give it a go!
Ok I want to try FPV now. That was fun to watch. Thanks.
I enjoy your reviews and how you leave open the possibility you could have been at fault when something went wrong (although I think the technology failed in this case). It’s also funny (impressive) to me how you casually know every little piece and part name.
Thanks Andrew. Once you get over the learning curve it's a blast 👍
Realy nice unboxing and review 👍 And man, I love the new intro .
+Marlon S. Thanks Marlon 👍
Thanks for all your great reviews! I'm getting into fpv flying now after messing with micro drones. I'm over here in Hilo on the Big Island. Love what you are doing!
Thanks Matthew. Make sure you check it the drone racing club over there. Going the Facebook site if you haven't already 😅🤙
Dustin Dunnill Yeah met some of the folks. Cool peeps!
Your review is quite professional and comprehensive
Hi, the microsd slot is for the blackbox. An app that shows motors behavior of each flight.
Brutal crash propp change and still going strong ill buy this one for learning how to fly freestyle
Insanely smooth with stock pids great roll rates I absolutely love it, the only thing are the props are too hard and don’t flex that much with stress after flights
Merry Christmas Dustin
This is probably the best looking drone for me. Carbon fibre with the purple contrast 😍
just ordered hs720e drone and now i want this fpv drone,thanks for your review
Thanks bro love watching your channel very informative
Love the Tattu and R-line batteries. I have a bunch of them👍
Thanks for this review. I’ve been eyeing this one for a while. I believe the voltage on OSD is configurable in betaflight. Also for the beeper
Nice review and demo . The flying was very good also . I like it the video that is .
Great review man.
Really like your channel
Thanks ✌️
I got the wizard, and I setup the AUX switches so i have arming, flight modes and beeper. And i have fully setup the drone and i have charged the battery and im ready to go :-) Great Video
How is it now?
Right on
Another Great Review!! The Sad Thing Is, Your "Rusty" Flying Skills, Are Way Better Than I Am In My Newbie State Just Getting Into FPV Racers.. My DJI Phantom 4, And Other GPS Quads Sure Make Us Overly Reliant .. Keep Up The Good Work, And Happy New Year!!
+Mark Adamson Thanks Mark. Took me a few years of occasional FPV flying to get here. It really helps with flight confidence when you have a good flying racer.
Wow this was a great informative review, I've learnt a lot, thanks, you have a new sub
Just watched your video of your hosim rc truck, buying that Now imma get this. THANKS!
Nice review, was interested in getting one when they first came out but saw that the arms were not fully carbon fiber and were breaking in the reviews i saw it's nice to see they have changed it back to full carbon fiber arms, I believe that SD card slot on the side might be for the black box recording.
That quad looks insanely fun! I have got to get my hands on one of those! I need that. I have just flown some hobby quadcopters, been flying for about 5 years and never tried anything like that, but it looks amazing! I am gonna save up
u r happy with this drone right? i m checking this out. i m thinking to buy a racing drone. but i couldnt decide
Top gun flyer Dustin 👍man I only wish I could fly as good as you..I need a hell off alot more practice 😉
Excellent review as always....subbed and really enjoy your video 👍🛫
this video is the reason im into fpv to this day
Your GoPro video footage looks great!
I realize this video is 2 and a half years old, but the reason it didn't auto-level when you let it fall @ 16:44 was because you have it set to stop the motors when no throttle is present. So after your punchout when you brought the throttle to 0, it started tumbling because no air mode was active to keep it upright. Since you were blipping the throttle instead of holding it, the FC didn't have a chance to correct its orientation before you cut throttle again. My wizard was doing this when I first started using it, but once I figured out the issue I changed the STOP MOTORS to off in Betaflight and now I can go 0 throttle while in Stability without tumbling! You do have to deal with props always spinning when armed though! :)
Not sure if the fall was due to propwash or a bad prop, but when coming down from a "punch up", I always come down doing a funnel or just apply forward pitch and throttle to avoid propwash(free fall due to turbulent air below) . That transmitter is very good, has a 1+ mile range with a good Flysky receiver. Easy to configure in Betaflight too. Great review as always!
using the common flysky ia6b receiver is the good one?
Would this make a good first fpv dude ? Watching god knows how many videos on builds a rtf's and still can't make my mind up 🤔
i was the same way, honestly the best route is to buy the parts and build it yourself so in the event of a hard crash(which is very common) youll have a good understanding of how to repair. dont cheap out. spend the extra money and get quality parts. i wouldnt recommend the wizard to be hoenst
How to solve all Wizard X220S Problems!
- Replace the Receiver with an XM+ Receiver (Assembly them Horizontal in a 90° Degree on the Frame ABOVE the propellers), Your Receiver is faulty, starting from the first 1000 sell outs they selling the shitty receiver, wich like in mine and your case causes the VTX to drop Randomly....
- Solder to + - a Capacitator from Phillips FM Series 1000µf, this will fix your Battery Voltage flipping between 0.0 - 1.0 to 0.0 - 0.3 and prevent sudden Fail Safe + it makes your drone fly so much smoother mate!
- Flash above Betaflight 2.* vor the FPV drops
Cheers
@@RC_Aviator not everyone can build a drone man
You can activate voltage display in beta flight. Don't understand why they didn't do it in factory...
You're welcome
Where can you activate it? Sorry I’m very new to fpv, literally did my second flight yesterday.
There were earlier version and released of this quad, the later version fixed the problem
N u t you can turn it on in the configurations tab and enable OSD, and the voltage display should be already setup for you, if you have this quad it should be able to have the vbat wiring done
@@creambaeggie7228 which version fixed the voltage issue ? If I understand, I don't need to
add a current sensor to check the voltage of the battery ? thx
it looks great, i think this one is going to be my first drone
Hey, did you buy it? :)
Allways wanted one but cant afford it so this really helps thanks so i will start saving
One of the best drone reviewer
+ROBES CHANEL 🙏😅🤙
Not to much wrong with your flying, great review.
Keep all the great work up you are my favourite youtuber love absolutely love your videos I want a fpv drone but don't have the money I want the lizard95
💗
I sit back, relax and finish my new drone videos, while I watch your review about a drone :D
😅
It's done in around 10 minutes...than I can go to sleep. It's around 1am in germany :D
Great review, nice quad.
Pretty decent starter kit not bad. Thanks
thats the best runcam footage I have seen
Nice review and quad. Cheers buddy 👍✈️😊
+Georgewrigley Thanks man. Lots of fun and flys good out of the box 👍
got it today, broke 2 props already. Great start xd
EDIT: I also cut myself with it... hurts
and fuck it just broke..
That sucks man hope you get another one
Thanks guys but the battery and motors broke

@@KeenuYT did they just stop working or did you crash it?
Awesome, hi from Brazil!!
I had that mount in a tyro bild and now it's pursanaly attached to a bang god berry versatile
Lookin forward to getting this fpv drone
Yeah Dustin I thought it had low voltage beeper too, and my battery swelled up more than my wife after 10 years of marriage on my first run :(
Mr. Mike wow lol
+Mr. Mike Yikes! I wish they would have set it up properly since it is an RTF 😕
hahahaha
Lol!
I just have a 5 min timer everytime I fly
You had me at "grippy sticky pad." Cheers. :)
kool buddy...good work....I hope to get one some time
Nice drone review sir
im gonna order this in 2 days, cant wait to get it
@Marceroni 02 no i orderd something else.
I may buy a set of blades just to be sure, but I still gonna use the stock blades, I don't expect any more to let loose, there is no reason for them to.I will take her out again tomorrow, I think the winter really SUCKS. I end up with me head up me arse, it really effect's me bad winter.
Still go flying like on nice sunny days, but spring and summer way,way better.
Rob
Unfortunatelly it doesn’t ship to Indonesia. The aux switches is at the last of Menu System then it should set on aux channels from Menu Function. Anyway nice complete review as always.
I got arming on most right switch, and the modes on the second right 3 switch. Up is angle middle is horizon down is acro. You have to sign the aux channels to that particular switches. In the menu of the tx. And then sign that aux channels to the modes in betaflight.
Really enjoy your calm demeanor, have you been in the military? I'm sure you're a guy who keeps his head cool when shit goes down lol. Thanks for the free content! I own the older x220 and was curious what changed
Not US military but I have served Vader in the past 😁
Snagged me a brand new one gonna do some mods on it and gonna be my daily for bandos and bashing Vrap on
Great video , thanks !
If I had a drone like Brother Dustin, it would have been fun playing with Brother Dustin's drone.
I recently found your channel and have watched a bunch of your videos. I've really liked them all.. Needless to say the weather makes me jealous.. It's 5 in Ohio.
That thing really screams.. Any way good video
This is actually my first fpv drone and to be honest I don't care if I have to screw or tighten some stuff, what matters is that I own it
You have to do a part II, I want acro lol. But great review man, sounds like that f4 board isn't bad.
+ab_ vevo air mode is basically acro 👍
Please can you review the Eachine Novice 3. Just ordered it and find your reviews awesome. Would really appreciate it!
Hey man i just wanted to chime in....you can get some blue locktite and apply it to the screw threads....that will hold them if you use the red one itll be harder to take off.
Thanks for the review bro
+thafactor24 👍🍻
nice one thanks man👍
Very good video!
What did you think of the drone?
What is the transmission distance?
I had no idea! these things are mental!!!
19:25 that was cool. Shot straight up fast. That would be interesting in a life size drone.
that was sexy af
I’d recommend the RISE Vusion V2 or V1 over this. It’s RTF and it is very good. They are hard to find though.
Impressive Review and Drone! Any updates so far?
Hey Dustin great review thanks. Do you know if I would be able to get my DX9 working with the x220s using the Spm4649t serial telemetry receiver? Cheers Jake
Amazing Wow 👌👍👏👏👏👏
Love the drone
in self level mode, if you zero the throttle at the end of the punch the props will stop, if it rotates beyond the control axis with zero prop control it is very difficult to recover. the self leveling does not deal with that so well.
Hi Dustin dunnill. Did you buy it from banggood? Because on banggood they say that it is only the drone or did you buy the controller and the battery separately from the drone? really cool video!
I believe the SD card slot is for black box recording the flight data not the fpv feed.
Hello my Friend good drone 💙😀😉
Just got one on sale !
Thank you for sharing
Mine had let loose 1 blade already, I have the X220.I don't expect it - my Bugs 6 and 3 mini are 1/3 rd the price and don't let loose a single blade in 6 months +. I do not conside 145 pounds a cheap quad, it's a big outlay and I expect it to be par excellence in every respect.I will get a few more 3 S LIPO's as I have 2 already, but I expect this thing to be PERFECT in every respect.
Rob
29:07 you scared me !!!
Wow... good quad racing...
Hey Austin, first of all great video I've watch it to the end, I found out about this hobby lately and after I watched A LOT of fpv video, I felt like I need to get to this hobby, putting the goggles on gives you the feeling of flying and being up in the sky (and I like heights I've always wished to have wings 🤣) so I've already downloaded a simulator 2 weeks and I'm starting to get the hang of it, so I was looking through CZcams videos also in aliexpress and amazon to find the cheapest best fpv drone that I can get (I live in Morocco so investing more than 300usd is a big deal for me) I found some really cheap set for between 60-100euros but I guess they wont give me the feeling I'm looking for in this hobby. So maybe I've found the right one in your video, with 150euros I can get a decent fpv drone and a remote control, so I'm wondering here if you can recommend me a not expensive goggles that can record and don't harm my eyes?! Anyway keep up the good work 👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽✌🏼
Eachine EV800DM. A great starter kit is the Tinyhawk II RTF kit, and comes with everything you need. Just remember, this is a very expensive hobby, just because you can buy things doesn't mean you can afford it. It's also worth investing in decent gear. If you have questions do ask me. Best of luck!
@@nosky_ hey im also trying to get into fpv and im thinking about buying this drone is it good? do you have to tinker with it or can you just fly it out of the box ?
Thanks for the review Dustin. Quick question I have been holding off buying a Teal Drone until I see your review, have you done one yet are you planing on doing one? Thank you!
+RC944jim I've got the FPV race version finally and currently in review. Not sure how their smart version is going as I haven't heard anything in a while.
Nice review dude, that crash was weird. Also is that a dead bird on the ground at 22:25?
+David H Yes, went over and checked it out and it was a dead bird that looked like it had been there for a while.
Rip
You need to enable the seperate 4 extra channels in your FlySky under SETUP I belive.
Hi Dustin! Looks like a nice quad! I'm just used to flying gps quads but I want to get into fpv! I f I got one of these fpv quads with the goggles, would I find it very hard to fly Dustin please?? 😀👍👍
How long is the fight time on one battery?
Want to get into this sport/hobby. Looking for one I could build on. Would this be a great drone to start with? Or any I should look into?
I really enjoyed that review👍AMAZING punch test! Best yet i think. the mk2 is all round better than mk1 but still more improvements needed for the mk3. Props too close to the body scuffing and it fell out the sky once presume bad props, needs rebuilding before flight encase screws are loose. Beeper not working. Set up for controller was needed. Ext ext. I love how you say you are a beginner all the time😂 PRO in my book! I can't even fly mode 2 though so don't take that as a great compliment but you are an all star! Love the new FPV goggles with built in camera so you don't have to take them off, good idea! I think I may get a little race quad they look like great fun but mode 2 controller only?! I will find a good value for money one based on your reviews. Your the best!
+Henry Phillips Wow thanks Henry. Well said and Exactly the improvements they need to make for X220sx 😅. Start with a little tiny whoop style fpv racer, bind it to a Taranis QX7 or better which you can customize to mode 1 and use it for all your racers as you improve to larger sizes 👍🍻
Dustin Dunnill I have seen your blue taranis I looks amazing I knew it would be the one worth buying. I didn't realise you can use mode 1 as the left gimbal stick isn't spring loaded? or is that the whole point for pro style taranis ect they are both not spring loaded? I didn't realise / notice if so. The little 90gt bug looking quad I remember you doing looked good. And the vifly130 I liked. So many to choose from now days! Tech is moving as fast as you are releasing new videos! Awsum!
Dustin Dunnill p.s. mode 1 came naturally from playing GTA and flying helicopters/planes in game. Haha 😁
+Henry Phillips it's fairly simple to switch the spring by opening the x7 transmitters. Then in the menu swap the channels for each stick 👍. There must be a vid out there somewhere 😅. I know, there are so many now. Start off very small and light.

Great vid as usual, How do you think this new version compares to the Waller’s F210?
The walkera is a bit better quality and a better tune out of the box but the wizard is great bang for the buck if you can do some tweaking.
Hey man! Love the video! I have been flying mavic for a few years and want to step it up. I’ve tried searching google but there is just too much info out there to keep the fpv game simple for beginners. Do you mind replying to this comment with some links for everything I would need from the receivers, transmitters, cables etc...... I can get a pair of fatsharks and be done needing goggles for a long time, but as far as connecting it all together with the drone and controller that this kit comes with, I don’t know what else I need. I want to try and run everything without a monitor if that’s at all possible. Thanks a lot man!!
Turn off airmode, all the bugs aren't out of it. Esp. if you hit a branch it will tumble and go crazy.
Don't use the search channel feature, set it to the exact right channel :) Runcam 5 Orange is looking pretty good. Liftoff is your friend.
I would say that crash was caused by bad tune... You caught either a strong propwash after slowing down the fall after punch or your airmode was off... Eitherway when you added more throttle because of bad tuning the quad didn't try enough to compensate the error and wasn't able to self-level
Or maybe dsync...
When you were trying to take control and you said you "punched it" when trying to take control. Well would that not create a vortex with the increased speed of the props and actually drag you down quicker?
Love the vid im guessing it cant hold a full size gopro?
Yes 🍻
Watching this in 04/2021 im Just getting into fpv I got into dji then fishing now some fpv .
Would you recommend this eachine for beginners and one more question wanna know how good is the banggood website that you order it from?
