Hey Andy, I just upgraded my eachine Novice1 to x2 solid ph2 connectors & it made a great difference! Also how's my crash video I uploaded, the novice1 can take a beating! Haven't even broken a prop yet😀.

[@ultifix2251]

Can you cli dump default settings please?

[@slowentropy4531]

I've always found putting some solder in the pins to make them solid really help performance and eliminates alot of sag on 1S..

[@balazsschweighoffer1404]

Hi Andy, in my opinion the voltage sag you keep mentioning does NOT ruin the batteries. The low capacity connector means a too high resistance between the battery and the electronics of the drone. The voltage sags on the electronics side but not at the battery. The result is that the battery stays intact but you lose power on the drone and also the connector can become hot. So while this is not good, you can stop worrying about the battery...

[@AndyRCchannel]

there is no opinion in this matter only facts. The connector creates a bottle neck / resistance. this causes the lipo to drop below 3.3volts on a punch out due to said resistance pretty much as soon as you arm. ergo polymer starts to break down and destroys it. you need to worry about this or should I say your wallet does

[@Billbobaker]

this is quite a nice upgrade.. love that they made the frame white again.. the black one was too hard to find in tall grass...and the leds are a plus.

[@frasersteen]

Tinyhawk v1 kit has got at least 4 people I know of into FPV. Such a great package. Hope emax keep it up with the RTF kits.

[@fpvcruzer]

Thanks so much for your in depth thoughtful review of the Tinyhawk 2. I learned a lot! I really enjoyed your flight inside your house - I did not think you would make it going under the chairs ... such smooth flight, very inspiring.

[@stevensbox9625]

Andy, love your stuff. Do Not bind the Tinyhawk 2 in D16. It constantly failsafes and drops to the ground while the RSSI value shows high. In D8 it works fine.

[@8alakai8]

on 1s i like the walkera connectors i think they call them micro losie or somethink i use them on 7mm whoop with stock whoop fc and 300mah lipo with that connector more power longer flight times no more whobbel of death

[@xDream65]

Hi Andy. Thanks for great videos. You keep saying that voltage sag, caused by thin wires damages the battery, but i thought that voltage is dropped between the battery terminals and connector/board but not on the battery itself, so thin wires will only limit the maximum current but will not harm the battery... Am i wrong?

[@StefanoVargiu]

That for the review. I was going to buy it for the new mounted camera but now I'm not sure. I have the S version but every crash there is the risk to unmount the camera : it is an annoying problem...

[@Billbobaker]

Great review Andy.. of the three Tiny Hawks and the Tiny Hawk racer which is your favorite?

[@totyrain]

Change the connector to a xt30 and flash the ESCs to Jesc 48khz and you will get about 30-40 more seconds of fun.

[@josephbove7477]

Merry Christmas Andy! I just got my tinyhawk 2 and have logged quite a few hours of outdoor flying. I have a rather small yard and it performs very well in that environment. I haven't seen any Jell-O on 1S or 2S. On my new batteries I was getting as much as 4 minutes of flight time. The 2s is a nice option but I think it needs a little bit of work on the tune and a change in the connector. It has very few shortcomings and they are definitely out shadowed by how much fun it is to fly! Cheers.

[@AndyRCchannel]

you wont get jello flying in a garden you have to give it full throttle

[@TheCupra1985]

Been happy with my Tiny Hawk S for a while now, disappointed Emax couldn’t really better it considering they have been on a good run recently. Merry Christmas everyone

[@PBoogerwood]

Thank you for this! I'm looking to get the RTF kit and this helps me plan to begin and then expand as my and my son's skill improves.

[@alfonsorodriguezlozano7277]

Buen vídeo he aprendido mucho. Pero mi pregunta es la siguiente....Se puede enlazar con la emisora del Tinyhawk I (Emax E6 Transmisor). Gracias....... Saludos.

[@pavlosgrivas343]

Hi again Andy, I’m talking of course about the tinyhawk 1. Cheers.

[@ab_customz_llc]

What VTX mv setting were you using in the house? 25, 100 or 200? And as always great review Andy.

[@FlyingBuzzard]

Hey Andy RC, question about the TH II, have you ever had it apart? reason I ask is it appears the connector you plug the motor into is glued to the board ( perhaps not soldered) as I was unplugging the motors they all were easily removed until the 4th one, the minute I went to unplug it the entire connector/plug came off the board...it has 3 contacts in front and one on each corner of the rear, BUT looks like it just lays on the board and is glued on...glue looks clear and shiny, I see no way to solder it, and I know of no soldering iron that small to be able to get under the connector to solder the contacts....any advice or help would be appreciated if you have any...Thanks in advance.

[@checkeredflagfilms]

excellent informative review. I'm using this platform to learn fpv. I prefer to fly outdoors on a calm day but the original TH suffered range anxiety so I just order the 2 and glad to hear your statement on additional range. How do you increase the vtx power to 200? Is that done through bf?

[@MCsCreations]

Fantastic flying and review, Andy!!! 😃 Merry Christmas, dude! For you and your family! 😊

@@AndyRCchannel taking the CHRIST out of christmas aint cool. You know its somebodys birthday, right?!? Dont make me unsub...

[@emgee44]

Merry Christmas Andy. I wonder if the issue you had with the recordings in the sports hall and the motor way services was due to the type of lighting they were using, depending whether they were fluorescent or LED and what frequency they operate on?

[@williamb3323]

I like the fender Tele. Have the Strat and It is my favorite of all my guitars. Thanks for the vid.

[@Barnz1980]

Dam 2s thru that 1 pH connector has crazy sag hey! Sweet review as always Andy👍

[@whiteyguitar666]

Mine arrived today, a week late but never mind,, Bit of a difference to my little inductrix that's for sure lol I use almost 3 quarter of throttle for hover is that normal

[@tomnom_]

Is this thing worth it as a starter drone? I have a Mavic Air but I want to get a bit in FPV flying... I have literally no experience with fpv, only on my Mavic Air which is mostly flying itself :D So what drone can you recommend?

[@beezermedia]

Suggestion from me and my experience is getting a nice radio and getting into some simulators like Velocidrone (racing based but you can freefly) and liftoff on steam. This will give you some fundamentals you would otherwise learn crashing an FPV drone over and over. I then bought a Tinyhawk and cheap box goggles from banggood.com and have been flying it in horizon mode in the house. I've now just switched to acro indoors and I'm flying relatively smoothly. I'm confident enough to now build my own 5" and start ripping. The tinyhawk line is probably the best starter FPV drone you can get in my opinion.

[@prowlus]

RavenDE the tinyhawk classic rtf package of course

[@chaosir3677]

Thanks for the great info Andy, I have 5 tinyhawks (for the kids) and I fly a TH2s for myself. Next burnt esc and I'm upgrading to either TinyHawk ll or ??? What would be a better alternative if any ?

[@keol226]

Eachine Trashcan is better and cheaper also the parts are cheaper

[@Autocharge1]

Thank you for all your reviews you have made for us all and hope santa brings you something nice. Its funny how manufactures miss the details in the rush to get something released when its the details that will sell the product as being fully worked through.

thanks. Wynne hope you have a good one and see u soon!

[@8alakai8]

[@mr.sinbad1647]

Nice review! Thanks. I have my Tinyhawk I on order and hope to be ripping (a little) around the house during the cold months. Thank u for all u do for the community. Merry X-mas and happy new year

[@adeburnham419]

Hi Andy or anyone else who might be able to comment..... I usually build and set up my own quads.....However I've decided I want an indoor smooth quad to fly around the house I did have a mobula7 over a year ago but even with throttle taming on betaflight I just couldn't get on with it and got rid of it. Watching a few youtube videos i'm now thinking of buying the new Emax tinyhawk 2 flying on 1s battery looks like a smooth indoor flyer (im not looking to race just to fly around the house under the tables chairs etc)...So here's my question ? My TX is a Taranis X9D+ Special Edition which is a EU version and my four outside quads all have EU software R-SXR receivers on them bound to D16. My Tx had either D16 or LR12 bind modes....Ive just put the latest Taranis update on my radio not ticking 'eu' on Open TX when I flashed it so now I have the option of either D16 or D8 binding. I've read online that through betaflight in the receiver option you can change the tinyhawk 2 from a 'Frsky D for 8 channel' to 'Frsky X for 16 channel' so the real question is this.....Can I now bind in D8 Mode or D16 Mode and what would be the difference am I still getting full telemetry in both ? I only have one model set up in my Tx so all my quads are bound to that ie D16 mode so if I bound to D8 my other models wouldn't work unless I created a second model to bind in D8 ? Basically if I bound in D16 like all the other four quads I could then run the tinyhawk on the one model set up but would I still get telemetry ? I'm just trying to work out the difference between D8 and D16 ? The Emax tinyhawk states its a spi receiver compatible with Frsky D8 mode ? Thanks for any advice .

[@cbsflows1041]

im sold my th s and bought a th 2.. sadly i think that th s is much better if you change the cam to nano 3

[@-Sullens-]

The tinyhawk s is perfectly fine of two s if you fly for only two minuets which is short but your batteries last a lot longer. Also could you do a review on the xilo phreakstyle???

[@BigAlFPV17]

Excellent review & flights Andy!! Merry Christmas to you & your family 🎄🎅

[@AlexLebed]

19:10 not because of people ask for it, but because they share the same board for freestyle which uses 2s only. Less different boards - less work.

Hey Andy, thanks for the review. What are your day driver's these days? O30's, HDO or 2? I just build a Tadpole with a Iflight V1.5 stack, Fywoo 1103 7650kv, Runcan nano 2, running Tattu 2S 450's outstanding micro! Thanks again and merry Christmas bro!

[@AndyRCchannel]

hdo with rapidfire. hoping to get the HDO2 but hard to get hold of!

[@TexasWaters]

@@AndyRCchannel Just got my HDO2's in 3 days ago, great goggles but I had to use the Sky O30's cushion as my eyelashes we're hitting the lenses, I did get the newbeedrone foam on them today, which is what Im using on the Sky O30's, which is even thicker and now they are outstanding! Only complaint is, I wish they would have went with the better DVR. When you do get them don't give up on them if they don't fit right as first, just find the right thickness of cushion for you, the OG cushion is super thin. Now, I'm just waiting on that Skyzone module bay so I can rock the TBS Fusion on the Sky O30's and the Rapidfire on the HDO 2's. Orqa's where to expensive, after the goggles and a module, you might as well get the DJI system.

My tinyhawk s only got 3:00 to 3:20, no matter the battery. Do you have a PID dump for the TH2? My TH2 comes tomorrow (2 of them actually, want my buds to fly with me!). The AIO is the same for THS, TH2, and THfreestyle, aside the 200mw vtx in the TH2, so I am hoping for similar results. Also looking hard at the THfreestyle... I really enjoyed my THS until I broke the board...

[@Bill-NM]

Can an ND filter be added to the camera lens to reduce/eliminate jello?

[@Perforator2000]

I'm thinking about putting the Tinyhawk 2 board into my Tinyhawk Freestyle, for the VTX upgrade. Other than a bit of soldering, I'm guessing it would be just a matter of changing the FC orientation and changing the PID tune and other values to Freestyle specs. Can anyone give advice on that?

[@MG-ht2cy]

I miss the words, it looks more like the very first prototype of a tinyhawk. Backsliding instead of progress in almost every way. Ok where should i start 1. much too expensive 2. much too heavy 3.Electrically, everything at or above the limit (motor connector only approved up to 3A) The Mobula 6 (Runcam Nano 3) incl. 4x1S lipos costs just € 67 (with code) and weighs under 20g.

[@LoCdogAK47]

Thank you for the video but I can’t seem to figure out what I’m doing wrong, I got it to bind with my frsky x lite but can’t seem to arm it. Blue led stays on solid on the quad but when I hit throttle a red led comes on but no power to the props. Any suggestions? I also can’t get it to connect to betaflight :/

Hello friends, I'm desperate. I have a Tinyhawk 2. The drone connected to "Betaflight". Entered the commands "set usb_hid_cdc = ON" via "Betaflight Configurator" and then "save". That worked too. Later I wanted to set the setting to "OFF". Now I get no connection to Tinyhawk. Can someone help me here?

[@timebert1132]

You should not disconnect when the hid setting is set "ON". Always set it back to off before disconnecting the tinyhawk. There is some way to restore it as i heard of other people with this problem, have you fixed it?

Less flight time... Pass. I changed my OG Tinyhawk with the S motors and it now flies at around 4 minutes, but the TH S is still the best I get a flight time of 5 minutes and can take 2s.

All Tinyhawks so far made are real battery killers. The S version seems to have the best performance on 1S in the family but i did kill a gnb450 on second charge, 2S is just not an option and i never really found out how would you port this setup to a 2S. XT30 pigtail ok.. and then what? I can understand swaping connectors on 2S bats but what of 1S? use some XT30-PH2.0 so you can use the 1S batteries? Also makes you kinda wish you could port the guts from Tinyhawk S to a frame with tiltable cam thats not popping out... oh wait.. Or maybe just use TinyHawks S motors in TinyHawk II? Curious when will TinyHawks get some HD capability if ever. WOuld be a TinyCineHAwk? ::) Good job on the reviews! I really like the knowledge you provide to the comunity.
