#FPV #IFLIGHT #Drone #ProTek25 #ProTek35 #Review #CaptainDrone #Ottawa - Věda a technologie
Literally just ordered a Protek 35 with the DJI system. SOOOOOOO pumped!!!! Using this as my whoop, also have an airblade UAV Transformer 4” long range with crossfire and caddx. Now I just need to get my freestyle quad built, then a 7" LR. Thought about getting rid of my DJI Mavic 2 Pro, but for stills it's pretty rad.
I swear you read my mind sometimes! I was just about to purchase this as my second drone after I saw your review about the betafpv kit which I purchased while back. Great review and keep up the good work! Want to see you reach 200k!!!!
I've been waiting for someone to make a review of these! Thanks!
Great flight capt. I love the long range ability you had !!
I am really getting into drones as a hobby, and this channel is really helping me get into things. I am on a budget, so I hope the sg108 in the mail is good.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge looking forward to learn more before I go into FPV.
That footage looks sweet Captain! The iFlight really takes flight really well. Great video review as always my friend.💯👍🏻
Love your videos, really really good info you give.
That thing is loud! Thanks for the review!
Awesome intro. 👍. Thx 4 taking the time to make another amazing review.
You are fantastic presenting new products Steve you are top 🔝🤗✌️👍
Oh wow another cool drone! I need a FPV now but can't make up my mind - buying stuff was never this tough!
Thank you so much for always information.
Have a nice day~~
well now I don't feel so bad if I crash my drone. Happy to see an expert still does it occasionally :) Another great review!!
I love it. What a super place to fly drones.
This one look’s really cool ! Thanks for this nice video you flight in an amazing place 😉
Good morning and good health to everyone. Beautiful and LOVE IT 👍👍🙏🇵🇷
Cap, love all your reviews. Couldn't do this without your output. Keep up the great videos. You Da man!!!
Thank you
Great footage that is another got to have FPV Drone.
Thanks Captain
Thanks brother just another great vid your one of the best
Thanks for the vid. Im looking forward to get the 35 when I get good enough
Man I just bought the Protek 35 because of this video. Really good stuff! Look forward to flying it in close quarters and indoors. Thanks for the overview.
How is it so far, the durability of the prop guard I mean.
Also, how is the noise? Choosing between this and cinelog
@@Cons2911 So far so good, I do need to do a comparison video between this and my Lumenier QAV-R to see the different flight characteristics. But more importantly I get to fly indoors without chopping anybody...hehe
[Beginner] Im getting this (thanks to your review)! i also have the TBS Tango 2 controller coming in. Should i choose the TBS Crossfire nano RX receiver?(obviously?) now all i need are the DJI goggles and crystal HD patch right? Thank you love your channel!
one day these emerging tiny drones will outcome the big high tech drones that dominating the scene . It’s almost match the performance of a four digit expensive high end drones . Good pick and review 👍🏻
Great quad. Great review, just love it! :)
This patch antenna and the protek 25 is GOOD 👍
So the Protek 25 and DJI Goggles will work together just if you get the patch antenna? Will the goggles then also work with other analog drones? New to this, sorry if its a dumb question!
Nice little drone, thanks for sharing.
Very cool!! Always. awesome attachment love the style of that drone tho!! Just screams quality!!
BBRRR looks freezin Steve, it was summer yesterday, you know what I mean...........how time literally fly's, and the drone is awesome as ever, rock on Captain Drone Sir
Wow! Looks like a blast! I hope to experience something like that one day. Being poor sucks! lol
great review captain.keep up the good work.
Thanks a ton!
I always like watching your video👍 you always explain everything well!... btw looks like wearing a GOGGLES after the flight will get me a headache🤣... thanks for sharing Sir!
Your absolutely the Best! I recommend your views on all drone the groups I'm in and that's A lot. Keep up the good work! Thank you! Also I was wondering.. does DJI still make the enterprise? If so, have you ever done a review on the spot light?
Quick question - Is the protea 25 better than the eachine cvatar 6s as the price of both is approximately the same with the receiver. I need it for cinematic footage.
Steve as always you made so nice review. you are welcome to come in Greece we have sun and nice weather even in winter time. stay safe and healthy
Thank you! Love Greece!
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 after the crisis you are welcome to visit my town (ATHENS). we have so many pretty places to fly drones without any problems from the authorities.
I started fpv fairly recently and chose to gp with analog because thats what the majority of flyers use now. I was very intrigued and all ready to go digital, purchasing the DJI goggles but i know the fpv base group is analog and it would put me in the right place as a beginner. I'm taking on this sport from its roots and then branching out. 👍😊😉🔧
Cheers buddy it looks really good 👍🏴
Nice video Steve! God bless take care stay safe
Great video, what remote controller and Google were you using?
Dude, great vid! You have a new subscriber. Good to see someone my age into FPV. God's speed.
Welcome to the channel
Can’t say I blame you. I’m an old guy, haven’t got past DJI camera drones. I went to a hobby shop locally, asked the sales guy about tuning with betaflight. He says he just sets up airplanes with the transmitter. Thanks for the reply.
Excellent! Nice review!
Thank you kindly!
Hello Captain drone I have a question about the protech35 . I was looking at the bundle deal and I was wondering if the remote came and mowed one or mode two and is that configuration changeable please let me know at your convenience thanks
Great review again thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!
At 8:16 by the time, my little tiny goldfish brain clued in, but it's too late.... hahahaha that's so damn funny😂😂😂😂😂
Another great video as always, Captain! Do you plan on releasing a new drone prediction/news video near the end of 2020? 2021 looks like it'll be an interesting year with Sony wanting in on the drone market pie. Also excited for that DJI FPV drone, too!
Hmmmm..... I may
Thumbs up and subbed! Just ordered mine as a Christmas prezzie to myself!
Quick question, what are the tangible benefits of the 'pusher' configuration of this quad?
It would then fly similar to this drone: czcams.com/video/Lt3EV2FrFmo/video.html
Waiting on the Protek 35 to arrive and thank you for solidifying my choice in purchasing the Crystal antenna as well. Cheers.
Good choice!
Tyler had you been hesitating between the protek25 and the 35 or not? Well that's my current situation. I'd love to get the Protek35 since it can carry a full gopro but it might be too noisy and bigger. I would like to know your take on that. Thanks
@@viko6052 I knew I wanted to carry the full size gopro. As for noise I highly doubt there's going to be a huge difference. Mine arrived today and so far I'm very impressed.
@@tylerl.5190 keep us updated. Congrats! My protek25 is on the way
@@viko6052 Congrats, hope it's fun!
This is pretty cool sir. I think the protec 25 is awesome. I’m about to get into drones I want your entire setup.
Thanks for your review, as always is very useful.
One quick question.
Where do you found the insta360 go 2 mount?
I just did a search on GOOGLE and found plenty of people that make them.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 thanks Steve!
Great Vid! Got a question, do the Crystal Antennas work with the DJI Googles V2? (Together with the DJI FPV)
Apparently not. You require a different type of antenna for V2.
Nice review thank you . Would this be good for indoors every now n then
Yes, but only for experienced pilots
Hi Captain Drone! Thanks for your review! Please help me with the choice, I just can't decide what to choose between protek25 and cinelog25? They are very similar, but like a cinelog 600mv VTX, and the leak has an LED and more powerful motors and etc.. (
Awesome Steve. Fpv for me ! In the future that is. Pandemic, every dollar is precious....
@8:01 *"GOAL!!!"* 🎉🥅🎊 ⚽
Glad you are not freezing! The Protek looks like a lot of fun! I liked the review banner that you used at the beginning of the video - nice font and effect fading it out. If I have a question related to a different product from an older video. Is it ok to ask it here? Or is it best to ask in the comment section of the older video?
Or you can send me an email. Look at the ABOUT section of my CZcams channel.
Nice intro. Great review. Flight time would like to see better. Love the options. I'm a newbie with no goggles . Flight Snaptain sp510. Like the companies that makes it affordable and compatible with radio. I like this Drone. Yeah iflight !! Yeah crystal. Thanks Steve .
Thing looks sick
Started FVP about 6 months ago. My first FPV drone is the DJI FPV and i loved how easy to transition from the toy drones to this. I'm still trying to master manual mode. What do you recommend for a CineWhoop drone for a beginner because my DJI FVP is a bit dangerous and very loud. I'm debating between the DJI Avata FPV and the iFlight Protek35 with my lack of FPV experience?; and do you know if the VTX antenna on a Emax Tinyhawk II be replace because my TinyHawk II antenna broke off in a crash? I loved your videos and keep going.💯❣
You may want to do like most people and get an RTF kit (READY TO FLY KIT) and teach yourself how to fly in ACRO mode (this is what DJI calls Manual... but no one else on the planet uses that term). If you can fly a tiny drone in ACRO mode, then you can certainly fly the DJI FPV drone in MANUAL mode. Have a look at my reviews of the SUB 250 RTF kit.
You are going to have to move somewhere along the California coast for sunshine with all year round flying and filming :) Thanks for the great informative video !!!
Hi. Nice video and an awesome drone. What receiver are you using may I know? Thanks.
The built in receiver of the CADDX VISTA unit
I'm really stuburn about getting digital.. But.. I'll have to make the transition one day because good god it's crystal clear. Amazing footage👌
Great review. Thank you. Looks like a winner. Question, you say it has a caddax vista camera. Isn’t the vista the VTX and isn’t the camera the std high quality DJI camera? Thx. Just want to make sure before I buy.
Camera is the camera and VTX is the Video Transmitter, which is built into the CADDX unit at the rear (everything is recording and transmitting in digital format).
With the iflight goggles patch do you also use the 1200mw hack for the dji goggles?
Never tried it. Also, that patch is something I use on the V1 Goggles and not V2.
I have a go pro hero 7 could u explain to me like I’m 5 years old what I should get? The goggles and the receiver and protect
I was going to get a mavic air 2 but I think I can have this and a mini 2 for the same price and have the best of both worlds!!
The FPV Drone hobby is very different from the Beginner Camera Drone hobby. You see the camera drone hobby like a DJI MINI 2 has everything you need in a box so even a child could operate it. In the FPV hobby you have to purchase all the components separately because you are not restricted to everything just working one way. I have a video series designed for beginners to get them into the FPV hobby here: czcams.com/video/jdIEHpfzlnI/video.html
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 I’m not a beginner drone pilot, but I definitely will check out the fpv video thanks in advance! Been looking at cinewhoop and I feel like this is perfect for me! Just gonna put some hours into a simulation before I take off!
Hey Steve....where did you get the horizontal mount for your Insta360 in this video ? I have checked all around and cant locate it. Thanks
Just do a google search for such mounts. There are many people online who 3D print them in any color and shape for your needs.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 Many thanks
Hi there, 2 questions i have: Does this drone comes with the rights PID settings out of the box? does they sell it as combo? (Googlees, Radio and Protek) Does this Protek has telemetry and GPS?
In modern days the PIDs on all drones out of the box are outstanding.
Hello Captain drone I was looking at the protech 35 bundle kit and I was wondering if the remote control came in mode one or mode 2 and is that configuration changeable?
From the photo on the website it looks like MODE 2. Such controllers can be changed to mode 1 by removing and adjust springs and then setting it to mode 1 in the EDGETX onboard software, but you probably have to take it apart for that.
Got it coming, like geprc way better, this might change my mind. Thanks Captain, good review!
Cool new intro!
i have the 25 and it is FAST AND SCARY!!! it is definitely for video i dont have goggles rn and it is difficult to fly with out !! for beginners definitely invest in a set i think my performance will improve
How’s the durability esp for the prop guard? And the noise also, thanks
Does anyone know if this protek25 will work with the new dji fpv remote and goggles? I just ordered the dji fpv drone and I would love to practice flying with something a lot smaller like this... thanks
Nice review! Come to Puerto Rico perfect weather all year
nice review sir, how do you feel, if this protek25 compare to alpha a85 ? performance, flight time?
Very different drones, can't really compare. (one is a Whoop and the other a Cine-Whoop/Race drone).
So Happy that you made me know about the iFlight CRYSTAL PATCH. Thx . Though I found 2 types to choose from ! RHCP LHCP
If going Analogue Steve, which goggles and radio would you recommend... Even though I've watched your FPV for starting vids lol.... Flown camera drones for a while now but this floats my boat... Flying an air2 at mo... All the best Tony👍🍻
RADIOMASTER is the most popular for radios. FATSHARKS are the most popular for Goggles.
Hi there! Your videos are very helpful. Do you happen to have any kind of "from buying to flying" video? I'd love to invest in a Protek 35, but I am new to FPV and I am afraid to buy incompatible stuff (radios/googles/batteries, etc).
Sure, for info on the FPV hobby for beginners just watch my video series called: Captain Drone FPV for beginners
I want to start with FPV drone flying (got about 15 hours in a Sim now) and thinking ahead what drone to fly. My style is not super slow like cinewhoop. I want nice recorded footage with some spicy flips or a faster turn or chase.
You recommend more of a 5 inch for this or can this Protek 35 do it? I will be recording with a gopro
Yes the PROTEK 25 & 35 will easily do that as well.
wow,you guys have a bit of snow there...we are lucky here in Cape Breton with no snow yet,we did have one day of it but it melted the next day.Myself i hate the winter months.another cool quad.i suggest you get the 4drc f4 to review,you will be quite impressed for the price and what you get.I review it on my channel and the video will be up today sometime
You need to go down to the Caymen Islands! Always warm down there!
Thanks for the review! Could you give me the link to where you've got insta360 go mount to this drone?
I just did a google search for such mounts.
Second and I love ur vids keep it up
How's the noise level on it? The cinewhoop style drones I've tried all seem to be like 70db loud from like 2m away, wonder if this is better
This sounds quiet compare to a CINEWHOOP. CINEWHOOPs are very loud and sound like vacuum cleaners.
Do you have any videos with frsky access receivers? Thanks in advance.
I avoid the whole FR SKY access system
I really want one!! It looks amazing 😍 maybe the protek 3 inch would be better to Carry my go pro hero 7?
Yes, for GOPRO go with the 3.5 inch.
Let's say I bought this. Can I use a Flysky fs-i6? I'm looking to start with an entry level radio
With the correct compatible receiver, then yes.
if I have 4 rhcp antenas in my gogles is chance to buy 2x rhcp crystal and use them with two rhcp stubby antenas?
Yes, all RHCP would work together
Another great job. I think this is the one. How do you charge the battery? I don't see a separate charger for these batteries?
You need to buy your own RC CHARGER. Remember in the RC Hobby nothing is handed to you and it is up to you to buy all your own gear (good or poor quality). If you buy good gear, then you never have to replace it. Only in the BEGINNER Camera Drone Hobby (like DJI, etc) are those drones made for beginners, so everything is included in the box, however, each time you buy a new camera drone you buy everything all over again. In the RC Hobby it does not work like that. You only buy the piece of gear you need.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 I don't know if I'm into the whole "personal respnonsibiltiy thing" :)
I just saw a flock of Canadians fly over today way down in South Texas.
Wow, they do fly extremely far south.
Snow Birds?
You already have snow! I live in Maine and it was 60 yesterday
Question for you please. I am going back and forth between the HGLRC 35 and the I FLIGHT PROTEK 35. I want the fpv goggle set up you are using here. Can you give your professional opinion on which one is better... Flight time... Stability... Etc?. I love your videos... Absolutely love them all.. I'm just torn between the two... and you have had real time first hand experience with both. Can you hold me build the best set with all I need?. I just want to make the right purchase once. I appreciate your time
In the world of FPV all drones are excellent.... There is no such thing as a crappy FPV drone, like there is in the CAMERA DRONE hobby. FPV is all based on the skillset of the pilot and knowledge of the hobby. You can tweak any drone to perform as you wish it to perform.
I flew in 5 degree temp for the first time the other day. My batteries didn't like that, it shortened my flight time a lot. I didn't really mind since my fingers were losing all feeling :) I should probably have used gloves.
I like the 3D drone name👍
So the patch kit is just the antenna? I thought there’s something/ a 2nd part required on the quad too?
The PATCH antenna is on my goggles, that's it.
Great video and love the quad!
I have a question not related to the quad, but how you’re arming the quad. I noticed that you have (what looks to me) set up a pre-arm switch! Can you please advise how you’ve set that up?
Thanks....Sam (your Ottawa follower)
Watch my video FPV FOR BEGINNERS EPISODE #9
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 Thank you 🙏
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 I just watched it and it was pretty basic setup. There was nothing on his yo set up a ore-arming switch!
Hi Captain. It's this Protek25/35 that I consider buying with DJI Goggles for the purpose of filming. I have Taranis X9D. Can I reach a kilometer or two with either 25 or 35?
I have never used the X9D so I can't comment on the range of the radio.
How much louder is it than a traditional cinewoop? Also what do you think the footage on a dji osmo would be like? Unconventional I know but I saw a demo and thought I'd ask about, cheers
Less loud than a 5" cinewhoop due to how the ducts are designed. The OSMO ACTION would need to be placed on the ProTek 35 and it would be fine.
I have been folllowing your FPV series for a while and am interested in getting into the Digital FPV Cinewhoop (cinematic video capturing) . If I purchased the DJI Goggles 1 or 2... would this "25" be to much to start out with?
It is as good as any.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 : I am thinking of getting the iflight protek35 in a few months... what receiver is good? I will be flying by myself pretty much always in the country... I see there is the iflight iF R81 vs the FRSKY mini XM?
@@GorillamansGarage You always get the receiver that matches your radio. (i.e., the receiver that is compatible with those receivers your radio can bind to).
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 Thank you. I am getting the Jumper T-Lite 4in1 radio. At least I can practice on a sim for a few months. Who knows , by then DJI may come out with a more crashproof fpv :)
I have to fly drones for business and getting my Part 107. YOUR videos really show how much fun (not just business) droning can be and it helps you to develop flying skills on a level I would probably never obtain with the Mavic 2 Pro... well, different applications.
Now, I do have the radio controller for the M2P... would that work for this setup you are showing here?
I think that what you are doing is helping me to take the pressure off from droning for business and getting into fun-mode! Subbed and shared this video already.
To fly FPV Drones (as in this video) you need a RC Hobby Radio. (many to select from and the Mavic 2 Pro is certainly not one of them).
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 Thanks! I remember I bought a FlySky FS-i6S Transmitter, in connection with the Zephyr Flight Simulator a few years back.
I've read people using that one too. Would it work with your setup?
Thanks for taking your time, btw.!
@@udornyc I've never used that radio so I'm not familiar with it.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 Okay, thanks! It looks like this is a pretty popular radio.
I'll look into it when the time comes. Right now, passing the test first, then practicing for my professional demands and learning the in and outs and then, I will expand to FPV and your recommended systems!
Thank you so much again for everything!
