Fimi TX10 Drone Controller with Bright Display - The Review

[@ModernDayTemplar606]

Looks like they done a very good job on design and function. Personally I really like the size and display. I think this controller should be a standard design for every drone manufacturer instead of a afterthought. Thanks Captain

[@ssb73q]

Hi Steve, good review of the TX10. The button on the right of the mode switch will turn the drone lights off and on. Precision landing works 100% of the time if a ROUND landing pad is used. Fimi will eventually offer a Fimi Assistant app that will let the TX10 receive FPV from a Fimi X8 SE 2022 that is controlled by another TX10. Kind of like the Autel Live Deck.

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

Good info, thank you

[@clarencesteward4119]

Thank you for the video,it made me excited for the TX10 . GladI had the opportunity to see your video so I'm definitely going to buy one now.

[@crddrones3457]

They do have regular hooks that screw onto the gimbal connector and then you just snap your neck list or whatever on it

[@kai_jokela]

Show us what you can do with the HDMI output! Does it give "clean HDMI" image in 16:9 1080P at 30 fps?

[@sligoquadcopter]

I took delivery of the TX10 yesterday and made a first flight with it. 330 US Dollars from RC Going. In my opinion it is good value, first impressions being very favourable. It feels solid and well made. I had alternating bright sunshine and passing thick clouds but setting the display to adaptive brightness maintained a totally viewable display. I also found that the range the drone could achieve was better than with the stock controller. Overall I concur with Steve, it is an excellent product.

[@Dronyankyvictor]

Friend, what drone do you use it with because it says that the distance it covers is 10 km and the Pro model says that it reaches 15 km that makes it compatible

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

Glad I could help

[@GraemeSymes]

I have had my TX 10 for over six months now and have been extremely happy with it. My only gripe is that I can't use many of the auxiliary controls, they either don't work with the drone at all or have a grand total of one option. I would love to be able to use the knobs to zoom the camera and the map. (the flush mounted button Is quite difficult to hold down While using the zoom dial )Now I know they're supposed to be a receiver model to use in aircraft / helicopters But that along with the auxiliary battery don't seem to be available.

[@starhawke380]

You would think for a device designed to be used outside, it would just come with a matte finish screen to avoid the glare issue. First thing I would get is a antiglare matte screen protector to put on the screen.

[@phoebesnow6986]

Excellent HELP video. This is a superb remote controller - long overdue at a reasonable price point.

[@MammothPaige]

It sounds great, as I have a 2022 Fimi that I think is sweet for the price.

[@FPVphilly]

It will be nice if Fimi include a combo sale that includes the drone and the TX10 controller.

[@Cmensailing]

Have to by drone seperate bit it helps keeps costs down if you don't have the money

[@FPVphilly]

@@Cmensailing I understand that and they can keep selling the same white controller but it will be nice if there is an option like in the case of DJI that sells also a combo with the smart controller.

[@FPV420.]

I'd like to know if it's possible to use the HDMI out to connect to goggles for FPV experience?

[@luvzbbb]

Hello Captain, I'm just wondering because I can't see a single conparison between the Fimi X8 SE 2022, and DJI Mini 3 Pro because I'm thinking of what to choose would it be possible to have a comparison between the two? or maybe compare a different drone that can go with or even better than a DJI Mini 3 Pro. I don't really have to worry about the weight since I live in the Philippines and according to regulations as long as its below 7kgs(15lbs) I dont have to worry about registering it and stuff so yeah. Thanks Captain!!

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

The reason there are no comparisons is because no one compares an under 250 gram drone to an over 250 gram drone. Mini 3 pro has much more technology in it than the FIMI.

[@luvzbbb]

[@ralfputz6076]

So how does the FIMI X8 SE compare with the DJI Mini 3 Pro with the RC controller?

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

Oh, the FIMI controller is way better (much brighter screen), but it is large to house the large battery and tons of switches and cooling system. If you want portability then a tiny drone like the Mini 3 Pro requires a tiny controller in hand.

[@jimanderson4865]

Hi Steve.....nice video. Looks like these all in one controllers are becoming a norm for the upper grade drones. I imagine it connects to wifi so you didn't need to use a sims card?

Hello Captain Drone . There's a New Fimi X8 Pro Drone and are you going to Test if you have the drone. Can You Test It in Level 8 High Wind .

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

When it is really windy out, every drone gets blown around, and if a drone starts to have no ability to make headway into the wind, it is time for Sport Mode. Normally I end up with new FIMI products, so you may see one in the future if one of the companies sends one my way.
