Really solid vid. You gave all the needed information especially around connecting the remote to our PC for sim use.
Your videos are great! I am just getting started and your content is awesome! Thanks again for helping out a newbie!
I was waiting for this. thank you for the good review
You can use a double sided tape for the batteries or velctro
I bought this last week and I'm still waiting for it. Few years ago I bought a nazgul 5 inch and boy that was a mistake to try and get into fpv with a full blown freestyle. Now I will practice on this one and hopefully graduate to the 5 incher
Same here. Ordered mine in the 8th, still waiting. Getting impatient now 😊
@@blackoutfpv yeah not smart too. But I didn't destroy either luckily.
You made good choice to start 1s-2s tinywhoop like this drone after nazgul :) I was started with mantis85 2s and did crashed/repaired it soo many times. Now I'm flying 4s 5inch custom. I definitely recommend you to play simulator from time to time on pc.
if you've flown it can you share your experience?? and your opinion
Hey man! Thank you a bunch for all the valuable info!
I noticed you mentioned the Meteor75 and I would like to know what goggles you recommend to partner with that drone, in case you buy the goggles separately.
Also, is the Meteor75 compatible with the Radiomaster Boxer ELRS transmitter?
Thank you in advance for your inputs!
Bro threw it down from the heavens then said “it’s pretty durable”
SD is not just turtle you can use it to scroll through the different frequency bands to the drone is on. There needs to be a video that focuses on how to pair this drone to the goggles and controller etc as there is a LOT of confusion out there.
It would be cool to try one of these. I only have my gps quad
10:50 you can use the cable come with the charger (1:06) to connect those batteries to use them
to stick them togeter use some tape and should be fine
I know you can use the cable, there’s no way to get a standard strap on there to hold the batteries to the drone though.
Tape is not going to last lmao.
is it possible to use remote control and googles for other drones later?
i would like to start with a kit like this, but then build my own drone with gps, etc on my 3d printer. would be cool to be able to reuse remote and googles
Could you advise some equipment to train fpv droning on PC?
Decent little kit
hello, great video🔥
i was wondering are the goggles able to fit glasses? they seem a little small
I have some folding reading glasses, which due to a hinge on the nose piece allow them to fit inside, but standard glasses won't
Thank you for posting this video. Do you recommend buying the 650mAh battery for manual mode?
If you plan on flying in manual/acro I assume it will perform better than the 1100mah that I used. I wish I could say yes, but unfortunately I havent tested it out
Is the betafpv cetus pro fpv kit better or worse than this one?
great review use rubber band or double sided tape for your other batteries
i also see many people talk about the cetus pro fpv kit. which one is better for beginners in 2024?
is this better than the beta cetus pro kit?
Sick dude! 👍
you can use the batteries you have!!! use the adaptor they provide and connect it the other way around. use double sided tape to stay on and you are good to go. see cpt. drone how he did it with the batteries.
come on thats a bit unfair its like comparing a racing kart to a formula one car we all have to start somewhere. I really enjoyed the review it has convinced me to get into fpv by getting one of these kits thank you 👍👍
Awesome review. Question... I am new and never flown an FPV, do you think I can wear my glasses with this headset?
You can probably go and buy a little thing for the headset to push it out a little more for your glasses
Also Ik I’m a little late
in the test, is that recorded video like that or did you edit it to look like that
My goggles stop connecting to the drone. It power up but it doesn’t show video. Do you know how I can fix it?
Was my First fpv Drohne and its nice to get into it, but what I really hate is the cam Connection.. dont know how many times I have to Open it and reconnect After a Crash.. and Beginners (and this set is for beginners) Crashes a lot
I consider to buy this drone.
Soup bois. I'm wanting to build my first drone (I'm a nerd and like tinkering, and after watching several build videos it looks doable for me) and was wondering if there was a decent combo of a controller and headset, or if those were something I'd have to buy separately?
Can I more or less get any controller or headset and it/they would work with the drone I put together, or is there some protocol or whatever that I need to match between controller/headset and drone? Thankee
no offence but if you don't know the differences between the Vtxs and Rtxs available maybe keep researching. Headsets aren't linked to the controller (the transmitter) at all. they're dependent on the camera thats used. Most of them and the more affordable one is analogue. Any headset is likely to work with any camera used, just use the same band. Controller wise, just get a controller set that has a Rtx with is so you don't mix it up. that way you can just buy a the same Rtx for any new drones you want to build after.
Digital headsets and cameras are very expensive and DJI is the main company selling them, upside is you get much better video quality from the onboard camera but if you're going to use a gopro then theres no point imo.
When hooking it all up, use the manual on your ESC and flight controller board to make sure its all wired up correctly
I tried connecting my controller to the PC and it had driver issue right away. I tried looking for driver on the website and seems like there's no any solution for this issue.
Hello. Tell me, I'm just getting started and this will be my first purchase. What do you think is better: cetus x or Aquila16
I’ve been wondering the same thing
Could I connect this drone to a TX16S?
Can you use the googles on your other drones
Just received it as my first fpv drone. Im going to gain flying fpv skills slas Ive been always flying cinematic drones and this looknas a good replacement for my mavic and mini 3pro for a winter time. Just got anquestion. Ive used to intelligent batteries from dji... Now this aquila has batteries that dont have any storage mode. How should I harge them for long storage?
Do you like the Kit?
@@benedict_fpv looks good and well made. I didnt try it outdoors yet but have a few bangs on the wall and drone still looks new:) My only concern is the supplied charger. Dont think supplied wires can survive lots of charges:)
what is the range for the vr03 with a nice 5inch build?
I'm waiting for my replacement from Amazon to arrive today, had this drone for about 2 weeks then outta nowhere, it'll fly great for a minute or two, then descend to about two inches off the ground, and will not fly any higher than that?? 😑 Super bummed, I did the recalibration for the drone, made sure batteries were good and fully charged.
It has plenty of power, not getting the low vol signal in the goggles or anything, just won't fly higher than a couple inches off the ground, maybe it could be fixed, in fact I'm sure it could, but I just bought this thing and paid good money for it, I shouldn't have to "Fix" anything this early on, so I ordered a replacement, if it happens again with this one, I'll probably go for the Cetus X brushless instead, same price as this kit, can use multiple brand batteries, not like the proprietor battery that works with the Aquila 16, and you get the radio lite 3 with the Cetus X, with the Aquila 16 you get radio lite 2, I'm not even sure what any of that means, I'm brand new to this stuff, but I do know what I like and what I don't like, and i definitely don't like having to wait for another drone to arrive because the one i already have won't work 2 weeks after i got it..😑
All in all tho, great drone, I'm hoping I just got a lemon with the last one and the one coming today will last me for a very long time, I'm ready to get some FPV flying in, hopefully the Amazon truck gets here soon, it's already after 7am 😂
What if I want better image in goggles? I need better fpv (camera) or better goggles?
Duck tape or Velcro to attach other battery
Can you play fpv simulator with Literadio 2 SE (from Aquilla16) on phone/tablet?
looks like it flys well but the video looks like its recording like its a 1980s vcr. Why is the video so shaky and all the video jump and static/snow like visuals?
How does this compare with the Cetus X / Pro? From the little I've seen I think either of them are better options, was hoping to see them at least mentioned...
This one has a longer flight time of 8 minutes, Cetus Pro has 4-5 minutes. And also has the optical flow sensor that allows for position hold lower to the ground.
@@7996hobguy oh OK thanks for the response, cheers!
@@danieltrejo2588 + the Cetus X uses a ELRS Controller, which has much better Range and u can use it for almost any BNF Drone, just choose the option "ELRS 2,4GHZ"
Can carry gopro?
I just bought this. What starter kits do you recommend that are similar price??
Emax Tinyhawk iii 🙌
halo sir,. can aquila 16 carry Runcam thumb 4K?
Do you think this is better than whoopfly 16 rtf kit?
I don't know what to choose for my first fpv drone
I don't think the quality of this camera is good even for the analog
If I had to personally choose one I'd go with the Whoopfly16 kit. Drone is far more fun to fly and has a much better tune than the Aquila
I've owned a few solid DJIs in the past few years and have been spoiled with amazing video out of the box... with that, I simply wanna know if the video recorded via the camera that's already a part of the drone, is as poor of quality as it seems? It looks like you may have put a filter over it but I genuinely can't tell. Thanks in advance!
That is a standard analog FPV feed.
The camera on this drone isn’t the best but all analog kits will have a similar look.
@@TRONCATFPV gotcha! I appreciate the info. You have any recommendation on a rtf kit that can do some solid speed and stunt flying but can still be solid to learn on?
@@almostamico this or the Emax mini drones. they're a bit older but work very well and are quick for stunts
can it hold a go pro hero?
but what about the camera of the drone its not good quality
Can I put a mini GoPro on top of the battery ? Video sucks in there
No, you cannot lift a GoPro on a drone this size.
If you're just looking for better video transmission quality look into digital FPV bind and fly kits. They will be about $1000 more expensive than this
please review the new Cetus x
It is older & this Kit seems better
Does the video in the goggles look any better than the video in the video?
that video is a pretty accurate representation of what you'll see in the goggles for this quad.
I would add the following: the Aquila16 copter is designed only for the BETAFPV Configurator and for the remote controller that comes in the kit, which means that if someone has another remote controller with ELRS, then you won’t be able to customize the copter for yourself in Betaflight and therefore not all modes will work . There is no boozer, the search for a copter is in question. For an apartment, you can’t turn off the air mode, it will stick to the walls and fall where you will disarm it in order to unstuck. There is also regular self-disarming, i.e. turns off whenever it wants. The quality of the fpv camera sucks even for an analogue one. The battery is detached when the copter falls or hits an obstacle. The design is beautiful, but the quality is slag. If to buy it then only as a kit, why would I need the kit if I have good glasses and RC. I just bought a copter and got these unexpected troubles. I don’t see the point in paying such money for that kit.
1 question, do the goggles have a strap.
YES
Can you put a 4k camera on it?
the only 4K camera that I can think of that may fit on this is the runcam thumb
do you think he can lift the Run Cam thumb pro?
If you use the 600mah maybe!
Is the discount code still working?
Cool
Why the Quality of video in googles its so bad? Can you get this quality better in other googles?
This is what an FPV analog video feed looks like.
Granted the camera on this drone isn’t the best by any means, you can get higher quality analog cameras that will produce a better image.
For the best image quality you’ll need to go digital with walksnail or DJI.
The discount code is invalid
Coupon code I learned will be valid on Nov 24 👍
It's invalid on 5 Dec too.
Can you please tell me how much weight this drone can carry
Anything that you can fit in the bed or hook to the trailer hitch. 👍
Is the controller in this kit universal with other drones?
he says around 9:30 that it will
Yes It is,if you want to buy another Drone, just buy it with ELRS 2,4GHZ. (keep in mind that the range of this Controller is limited, i recommend the Radiomaster Pocket as a very good, not expensive Radio/Controller)
Cetus X FPV Kit or BetaFPV Aquila16 Kit ??
Cetus X is faster because it uses 2 batteries at a time, if I would start, I would choose the Aquila16, because it seems more durable
Which drones can work with the kit?
Any FPV drone with an analog VTX and ELRS 2.4ghz receiver.
i like the drone, but the camera is not the best …
If Cetus Pro FPV and DJI avata had a baby lol
Can i bind it with my Radiomaster
If your radiomaster is running ELRS 2.4ghz you should be able to!
Video quality looks like old VHS home videos
Yes, that is analog video.
If you want HD video transmission go for a DJI kit.
Why can't you use a velco strap
There's nothing to strap it to lol
A qualidade da imagem é essa? Achei muito ruim.
The video quality is that of a camcorder from 1994
WOAH. THATS LIKE A CHEAPER DJI AVATA. IM PROBABLY BUYING THAT (my first fpv drone ever)
You can add some straps to use all your other batteries :)
Got a picture or link on how its done?
Not seeing any documentation on using other BT2.0 batteries
use the charging cable extension to the drone@@TRONCATFPV
@@mistermann77 I'm aware that you need to use the cable extension. This does not secure the battery to the drone.
hi, is it possible to change the transmitter to mode 1 (throttle right)? Thank you
Omg yuk it's hard to fly with all that static
Thats analog!
If you want better video quality go for DJI, Walksnail or HDzero
Pic quality looks like a 1980’s handheld camera 😂
It's not DJI O3 unit camera, and not any other HD, what did you expect?
Yeah it’s analog lol
It’s analog because in the beginning of the hobby that was the only video system that had low enough latency and was easy to get into a drone until HD. Now analog is considered a more budget option.
this would be amazing if the drone could record hd to a sd card. this fuzzy transmitted video ruins it for me.
genuinly i think you should not be cheap if you want to get an fpv drone if you want an fpv drone and you know your going to stick to the hobby get a dji avata or a good branded drone with good vr goggles
I really couldn't disagree more.
If you were thinking of getting into videography, would you go out and buy an Arri Alexa to start? No, you wouldn't.
You'd find a used DSLR kit that comes with everything you need and you'd make sure you know what you're doing first.
C'mon now.
You dropped in on a bush and said it was durable lol
That hit straight cement. You can hear it lol
If it went into a bush don’t you think it would have stayed in the bush?
@@TRONCATFPVlooks like a bush in the video
The video looked very poor! “As well”
Thanks for the demo
Custom batteries :-(
bruh, adhesive velcro...
8 minutes is not enough
8 Minutes is actually one of the longer flight times for a drone like this. If you need more than that I'd suggest picking up an Avata kit.
I just don't get the reason of making a 1.6 inch cinewhoop being analog. Ok, it's a beginner drone, but why not just put a let's say 2.5 inch regular cinewhoop in, that can at least handle a camera? It's not optimal for rancing, nor for freestyle and can't record cinewhoop stuff. So I think that buying the cetus x kit or something like that would be a better investment. The tune seems kinda bad, ngl. (The review seemed kinda biast, but I do not want to hate on Troncat. I love you man❤)
I think it's for dummies like me to practice on so we don't hurt someone or destroy our more expensive quads. I would rather fly something cheap and relatively tough to break, than my nazgul freestyle or my cloud 149 cinewhoop
@@jmtbuilds175 Yeah but why not just buy a tinywhoop then?
Not everyone necessarily wants to film with FPV drones, or even do freestyle or racing. Some people just want to fly FPV for the experience. And in that case, all-in-one kits like this are perfect.
I always do my best to remain unbiased when testing products and tell it how it is.
Yes, the tune on this thing is pretty rough from my outdoor testing.
@@malnasimon7041 I've been looking for about a month. This seemed like a good all around choice for the money
@@TRONCATFPV I had this lofty goal to film my fpv experience with my Gopro hero 7 black but luckily I was at least smart enough to try flying without it. Here it is years later and I finally got the itch again.
But the Video quality.... .meh at best. shame
Well it's analog. Pay $1k+ for a dji with digital
I bought one because I want to get into fpv. I want to be sure I am able to fly one first as I have nerve damage to one hand. If things go well I will then spend a few grand on digital video and high quality controller, along with a few drones, batteries, chargers etc. Even with the poor image quality it still offers an opportunity to step foot in the hobby without fully jumping in and buying a bunch of these I don't need or use.
stil, it's analog and a whoop so it isn't that bad, but for the money you can get a way better deal
The cetus is better slightly.
@@megatron187a full kit? I've only found 3 different brands with beginner kits from my research the cetus x kit is the best at around $300 and it's a 2s
Why such horrible video??
Looks like garbage 😂
The video is very bad😞
slow slow slow slow
my computer only writes "driver error " when i want to connect the controller to my pc to fly sim
