The Most Popular FPV Drone - iFlight NAZGUL Evoque F5 - Review

[@angrycatcinematicpictures5543]

Thank you so much for being the first who reviews the X frame option! Looking forward to mine to arrive! Keep up the good content!!

[@jimmydean7945]

I’m really liking this drone but I’ve bought 4 in the last year and I’m happy with my fleet Dji fpv, titan xl5,Rekon 5 hd and I built a 5” 6s with a source one frame! I’m in love with fpv and I look forward to captain drones videos because he’s honest and super knowledgeable!!! Thanks Steve great video

The Nazgul being the most popular fpv drone is debatable. Captain Drone being the best KZbin drone reviewer is undeniable!👍

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

Why thank you kind sir!

[@jonhaze7537]

I considered the Evoque, definitely looks like a winner. With the recommendation of a friend, my first 5" is the Armattan Beaver RTF and the thing is fantastic. Been enjoying it for the past few weeks and now I already have parts on the way for my first build.. super excited. Looking like: Beaver frame (armattan rocks!), Speedybee F7 V3 stack, Xing 2208 1800kv, Caddx Nebula Pro Vista, and Crossfire nano!

[@billhowes5871]

Thanks Steve! You answered three important questions I had. You should definitely go on the Ken Heron TNL show and talk about this drone. You two talking about this drone would sure be interesting. Thank's again.

Your plane chase is amazing. Such a nice continuity and no visible corrections! You should make a vid about how to do that properly! :) And gosh I like the looks of that thing. And all the lights. I bet it looks amazing with those Gemfans Moonlight!

[@iamshredder3587]

How'd you go with it? I imagine if you got it you'll realise by now how much harder they are to fly and how much more stuffing around with set-up and batteries and everything? 😀 But worth it too, alot funner. ))

[@FahadKhan_3007]

It glows beautifully! It is a big one... The max speed is also nice but I think that its a little slower than hawk pro... I like how they covered the USB ports... Dust cannot go inside it!

[@e5m956]

Max speed is a joke. Everyone in the FPV scene throws hate towards the DJI FPV Drone and many call it "slow" compared to a carbon framed quad but I've had the DJI up to 99.4mph. Now what's slow?

[@e5m956]

@Bizarre Fpv - Google the top speed of the DJI FPV Drone and you'll get your answer. I've seen more than one person talk about getting a little faster than the stock speed. (tail wind pushing a little?) It's 0 to 60Mph (0-100 kph) in 2 seconds with a rated top speed of 87Mph (140 kph)

hey im new to the hobby and wondering if i should buy one. Just wondering if I need a gopro? or can i just use the camera under it. so is the gopro optional or essential. thanks :)

Excellent review cap! I will have one for sure nicely build.

[@seandalt]

What constitutes a long range quad? I’m looking for a good quad I can strap a GoPro to for solid cinematic footage. Isn’t 5 minutes considered relatively long range?

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

Long range usually means the drone flies for a long time (over 10 minutes), so you can travel a great distance.

[@filipehenry4340]

Captain with system Did you show before you fly to CHECK THE WIND SPEED? Please show me a link to buy !

[@kjvenus357]

What controller you're using? ;)

[@lukeberni4384]

Is there a version of this drone that is built for long range? Assuming bigger battery etc? New to FPV and really want to learn and pick a drone once I get a slight hang of it to be able to fly all over different locations. Any tips/help would be very grateful. P.s great video thanks

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

Long Range FPV drones are simply FPV drones with a receiver and antenna, as well as a GPS RESCUE unit. In addition the video transmitter in the drone will have plenty of power to pump out a long range video signal. As well, on the other end, the pilot needs to own a Transmitter with a long range and in addition, FPV Goggles with a long range. NOW... I'm gonna tell you something that you really need to keep in mind. In the FPV hobby the drones are crazy powerful and for that reason the motors suck up all the available power quickly which means, in order to fly long range you need to fly with a LI-ION battery, which then makes the drone more tame like your typical DJI Mavic type drone, but in exchange you get longer flight times.

[@kreech68]

Great video - hello from the other side of Ottawa (Dunrobin!)

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

Hello there!

[@truesightgrabber]

Isn't Chimera 7 better in all aspects ? What is the longest version of battery could be installed here at Nazgul and for how long it could fly with it ? Can ELRS or Crossfire solutions be installed here ?

[@fpvwithme]

Ok. I need to replace the motor already lol. All I can find out so far is its a xing II 2207. When I look it up, there's alot of sub models. Any clue exactly which motor I need? Thanks captin!

[@ceugepios]

I'd love to see what this thing can do with a naked go pro but its got some rock steady turns for sure!

[@wakkaflakkadown]

Thanks for the review, Steve!! Did you have any issues with Caddx overheating during setup? Someone claimed to have had to remove the top plate for ventilation while updating DJI. 🤔 I always use a fan, but disassembly just to update? UGH lol

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

Every digital VTX will get hot when updating and if the room you are in has no ventilation then everyone will overheat. Using a fan is the best thing for any digital vtx.

[@wakkaflakkadown]

@@CAPTAINDRONE798 Sounds like enough air gets in through the gap between the side plates and top with the aid of a fan. Perhaps JD removed the top plate out of an abundance of caution. I’d rather not unless absolutely necessary.🙂

I'm unhappy with my iflight baby nazguls. I got one 63mm and one cross fire 63mm both done work.

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

@@brentminer2901 Yes. Because it connects to a receiver that you either order with the drone or install yourself.

[@twowheeldrone4921]

How did you set the switches on your controller; I have the same setup but not sure how to set which function to each switch? I love the way you label each switch. Maybe a video dedicated to the controller setup. I have the DJI FPV setup as well as the Nazgul drone in 4S but the first time I flew it was not a pretty sight, it was very hard to control as I think some of my switches may need to be set. Thanks in advance.

@@bsdude010 If you have a 4S drone and put a 4S battery on it, then it flies as intended with full power. If you have a 6S drone and put a 4S battery on it, then it flies at half performance. For full performance you have to put a 6S battery.

[@ImperialArmour]

Hi Steve, if you choose the ELRS option, does it still bind to the DJI controller? I'm assuming it still does because of the DJI O3.
