I like how you stick to your format for each video as if a person is watching your vids for the first time. I notice how you point out your glasses not fitting for goggles. That's important stuff. I've been in fpv since October 2023 and I've watched your videos for months prior. You helped me get into the fpv hobby. Ive flown gps drones and mavics since 2018 so there's that experience. I have the avata and the potatoe currently lol. Recently I've been trying to decide on which REAL fpv drone I'm going to get. I love the vid you did on Flylens 85 and i think that'll be the one. Thanks for your content

I’ve had my Aquila 16 for a while now, and like many others have noted, the video quality wasn’t great initially. My first improvement-removing the wire monopole antenna from the VTX-helped significantly. Since I still don’t enjoy wearing the goggles, I acquired a separate VRX with HDMI output. Unfortunately, on a big screen, the poor video quality became even more apparent. Determined to improve this, I disassembled the VTX again. After cleaning the coating off the VTX board, I discovered that the wire antenna was soldered to a pad meant for a coax connector. I ordered some IPEX connectors, soldered one on, and added a length of coax to a homemade helical antenna with a ground plane. After increasing the VTX output power, the video quality and range improved dramatically. Changing the antenna on the goggles to another homemade antenna further enhanced the experience. I’m sure if someone used prebuilt VTX/VRX antennae , would experience an even greater improvement in video quality. Additionally, I wasn’t satisfied with how the camera was mounted in the canopy. After damaging the canopy, I contacted BetaFPV to request the STL file for a replacement. To my surprise, they sent me the STL file yesterday. Having taken apart the Aquila 16 numerous times, I’ve come to realize that BetaFPV releases their quad kits at a low price not because they are cheaply made, but because they use high-quality components and leave it to the customer to add the finishing touches. While this is just my opinion, seeing the high-quality tech paired with questionable items like the VTX wire monopole suggests that it’s by design, aiming to provide quality kits to customers at an affordable price. Just thought I’d share my experience.

It kinda seems like a camera drone with fpv controls. I think that's cool because slowly a beginner could change from camera drone to full manual mode. It seems to be a decent price for everything you get. I just wish we got to see how the goggles that came with it look. Geez it looks pretty nimble in manual mode. I like that it looks like the avata but I guess that sucks battery wise.

Beginner here, could I use a Radiomaster controller like a boxer for this drone without a kit? Learn how to fly it w/o FPV. Later on add the DJI Goggle which I intend to use O3 VTX in my future? It there any analog vs. later digital issue for the build in VTX? Or can I upgrade this drone with O3? Thanks.
@CAPTAINDRONE798
@CAPTAINDRONE798 14 күн бұрын
The answer is… If you get a RADIOMASTER BOXER, use it to practice flying on FLIGHT SIMS. Later, buy yourself a DRONE that has a matching RECEIVER, so if your BOXER is ELRS, then buy a drone that is ELRS. Finally, the drone you buy will have an FPV Camera, and FPV Cameras come in 4 versions which are ANALOG, HDZERO, WALKSNAIL, DJI. You then must buy FPV Goggles that match one of those 4.

These RTF kits are only designed so that you dip your toe into the FPV Drone Hobby, so get the one at the best price.

The TINYGO requires a bit more skill so it is more for people with good hand/eye coordination.

Thank you for posting this video. Do you recommend buying the 650mAh battery for manual mode?
@CAPTAINDRONE798
@CAPTAINDRONE798 Жыл бұрын
Nope, not really. The reason I say that is because the pilots of this FPV drone are beginners, thus manual mode will take plenty of practice to master. If you eventually master manual mode without constantly crashing and you learn to do flips, then consider it, but it will significantly reduce flight time.

I wish Bugs still made the Bugs 8 pro - but just kept updating it. It's so ridiculously powered, with decent range, and at the time was decently priced. Some design problems - but I love that drone. I feel like this little thing is a great starter, but just for the price I feel like it's way underpowered.

Do you think this guy will be able to support a runcam thumb or thumb pro? (The pro might be harder to power as it requires a 4S source, minimum)

Only use small cameras that weigh little and have their own powersupply.

@@CAPTAINDRONE798 it's kind of funny that a memory on Facebook popped up with my first FPV drone. It was a 5-in quad with a FL sky receiver. I had no idea how far I could go away without losing signal. It was seriously dangerous for a beginner. It didn't take me too long to crash and bust that thing in half. Which was probably a good thing lol. Then I started with tiny whoops like the mobula 7 and the mobula 7 HD which was pretty cool to get HD video out of that little whoop even though the analog signal in the goggles sucked. I honestly don't know how guys can fly analog. I could never go back. Lol. Happy flying! You should come down to Florida it's still in the '80s and sunny. I'm from Buffalo originally so I know about the snow thing lol

Great review! You said during the outdoor flight that manual mode tries to correct itself and that it feels weird, is it not the same as a true acro mode on professional drones? Also did you happen to test the maxium range on it?
@CAPTAINDRONE798
@CAPTAINDRONE798 3 ай бұрын
Range is based on video signal and battery (you need power to return). There is no video antenna sticking way out of the drone so video range will suffer.

@@BennettSmith-tz5tv Correct. It is not the same, at least on the version i had. It tries to be, but it also wants to toss in a bit of beginner mode to protect the drone. BetaFPV could have changed or updated this at anytime since my video.

I know this video is 4 months old but which would you choose for an absolute fpv noob. This kit or the cetus pro? Only a $50 difference between the 2 and they seem similar in many ways. Is the aquila worth the extra cash or not?

Capt having multiple batts is no fun with the 2 batt charger. Betafpv has a 6 port 1S charger would that work with the cables for Aquila 16 batteries.??
@CAPTAINDRONE798
@CAPTAINDRONE798 11 ай бұрын
Well, the Aquila battery says the connector is a BT 2.0, and the six port charger says BT2.0, so logic says it works. You’t just need the extension cables from battery to charger.
