DJI FPV Drone Combo and accessories

[@DumbThumbsFPV]

Hey in this edit I left out why it was good for my boat sorry. It's good for the boat because of the landing gear in the front is raised and rubberized and sticks to the pad on the boat. Also the weight of it makes the landing gear on the battery and under the arms sink into the pad. While landing in normal mode the quad slowly comes to a landing and can be controlled.

For an older guy who has been flying drones for a while. I enjoy flying it more then any of my other drones. I have tried to fly FPV before and this one a no brainier. When it comes to FPV flying.

[@Todd_G_FPV]

I got mine used too that looked and works flawlessly! Got the dji fov with 3 batteries, v2 goggles with 2 batteries, rc2 remote, motion controller v1, cam filters, 8 brand new props, light beacon, and a very nice backpack that really protects everything for only 675! Plus 25 shipping ans 19 for taxes, im super happy with what i got and cant wait to be able to fly it after Christmas (wife wont let me touch it till then) lol i also bought the rotor riot super comfy foam for the goggles and that fixed my light leaking issue (pretty sure theyre a rebrand but it works for me!)

The DJI FPV is a hybrid it’s made to have fun doing about 75% of what the fpv community wants While getting incredible video to show off ..home built FPV is like riding a dirt bike or jet ski thrill to fly ..

[@MichaelRyannz]

The prime use is for flying distance reliably... wind issues yes but gets the job done in places that would be a risk to the standard freestyle drone which is why I purchased one. Have built plenty of my own right up to 12 inch gear.

[@johncarold]

I shouldn't have said that, I think it's a great drone for someone who knows what they are doing not a first drone.

[@carlossheppard1745]

I hope you’re not expecting a lot of like bashing such a good product that’s well designed, and perfect for the price point.

[@DumbThumbsFPV]

Ii said what I said and it's true.. it's a plastic potato. I don't do my videos for likes, I do them for an honest review from a guy that has been building and flying drones since 1999. Seriously take the phanboy BS somewhere else.

[@CloudsFPV]

So tired of people bashing this to look cool. The DJI FPV is a great quad for newer people and for people who don't want to deal with the hassle of soldering, maintaining batteries, messing around in BetaFlight, troubleshooting issues, short battery life, harder to land. You can adjust the rates to suite your needs, you can use all the same props with an adapter which changes the flight 100% it has the power to freestyle perfectly fine, the camera quality is amazing, battery life is way way better, easy to land and learn on so you will crash less, the DJI goggles are the best in the market and can be used with an 03 Air unit if you build one later, you don't need to buy an additional expensive GoPro. Its way better in every aspect except its not as fast or snappy in controls as a custom built quad. What is more aerodynamic a rectangle or a circle? hmm I guess the potato wins. Its actually NOT heavy if you compare it to a 7" quad which normally weigh around 1630g with a battery.😂

[@CarolinaAirshots]

I just started on velocidrone sim , but I appreciate the information

[@DumbThumbsFPV]

Then you are doing it the right way! Most just jump out there and start flying and waste a ton of time and money. A good sim will save you money and grief.

[@dronemafiaproduction.]

I love this drone better then any of mine

[@wizl4035]

hey, nice video. appreciate the info.. i have the dji fpv as my first fpv drone, have like 50 hours in the liftoff sim and starting to feel really comfortable in manual mode, however im afraid of wrecking this flying laptap as you said in the video. can anyone link a good but not too expensive fpv drone that i can link up with my dji goggles? and also does any radio work? maybe a link of nice beginner radio + fpv drone as i have no idea what works with my dji goggles. im very tempted buying something now that i feel i get the hang of it.

[@Todd_G_FPV]

Mine feels really "floaty" to me flying in wind, props almost sound like theyr still going when i let off the throttle, i like the way it flys but there is a lot of prop wash

[@fabsim5696]

Dude did you even read the instructions????? The batts, is autonome. after 3 dayes it downcharges it selv for long term rest.

[@crank_FPV]

Exactly why Dji created this and honest review! So much hate out there lol

[@jp-3dairgunworks152]

Another honest review. Thanks for sharing.

[@thecrazymonkeysk8]

Jesus Christ. This video make me want to jump off a cliff. The only thing accurate here is every time you say “I don’t know.” Goggles not helmet. Don’t like the tuning, props, battery. If it lands hard you break the battery? Dude you need like an RC Boat or stick to your kit drone. The DJI FPV is not build kit. It lands soft, batteries are smart batteries and discharge themselves. The DJI controller does everything needed. Your other controller looks like a nightmare. The “helmet” goggles recording is transmitted.. so it is gonna be raw. The Drone has the best video. Im not even gonna explain why. DJI FPV had Air Sense (alerting you to oncoming aircraft) and Emergency Stop. I have flown everything too. From Control line planes to RC planes, helicopters and drones. The DJI FPV is incredible. Kit pilots need to stop trying to compare their kits to it. There is just a new category… it’s called .. DJI FPV. It is even spelled differently than KIT. 😊

[@TheExcile009]

Loved your honest video I’m new to this hobby I just bought the DJI fpv last week. I’ve only flown 1 time do to weather and I don’t want to trash it due to the non repairable 300 dollar fix so now I’m looking into controllers etc. and a good starter………..= frustrating

[@eprohoda]

How’s life?- mr. tthanks,what a interesting ~👍

[@vannozRC-MTBvideo]

Hello my DJI FPV get crazy when I put on it the gopro. I tried both in Sport mode than in Manual mode but nothing change and motors get hot.. How to solve this problem? Thanks

[@eggvr6969]

you cant. its blocking gps

[@kalikaputra]

replace those shitty props with some master airscrew props and no flying in the wind issues

where did you get the skin for that drone?

Where did you get that wrap for your FPV Drone?

[@hookedfpv3219]

I have no problem flying mine in 20 mph winds so I don’t know what your doing but mine flies flawless

[@DumbThumbsFPV]

Do you have video to prove your point as you can see in my videos the plastic fantastic does have issues with the wind. I mean you do have a youtube account and it easy to upload videos...

@@hookedfpv3219 sounds good. I have a friend here in town that just got his new one and I'm going to fly his in the wind as well. He said he did notice jello in his as well as the quad doesn't like wind very much. Also talking to some of the other reviewers and Mad Angler from RCG about it

Has to be the moist honest and sound review on KZbin. No bullshit just tell it as it exactly is. Excellent review and helpful to many newcomers buddy 👍🏻👌🏻

[@DumbThumbsFPV]

Thank you

[@timpearson6533]

Hi you seem like the guy to go for an honest opinion. I could do with some advice mate. I’m a competent fpv pilot and just taking my pfco to gvc conversion course. Is there any revision notes I could use? I failed my exam yesterday and I need some help if there’s anyone out there on planet 🌎 Drone. I could do with your help please 🎸🎸👍✌️

[@DumbThumbsFPV]

I live in the US so I'm not familiar with that but Mad Tech, Painless360 and AndyRC are. They are great guys that probably could help you. You also may find help on RCgroups as well.

[@carlossheppard1745]

Any custom product will out perform an OEM one. DJI had to take many factors into consideration when designing their FPV.

[@DumbThumbsFPV]

actually many OEM real FPV drones outfly this thing and are cheaper and easier to fix. This is made for new people that are too lazy or lack the skills/intelligence to build and maintain a drone. Its like when an idiot buys a Porsche and takes it to the track not knowing how to drive or fix the car.

[@AllanAndison]

Very useful review. Great tips on equipment, especially the face out foam and fat strap. Really appreciate your frank comments. Thanks

[@mustanghuey89]

Kind of a weird review you spend the whole video complaining about the fpv drone and then recommend it to people. ?????

[@DumbThumbsFPV]

I recommend it to new pilots because there is nothing better out there for them. Otherwise it's a plastic POS for real FPV pilots

[@OneOfTheRobs]

Hi buddy. Very VERY cool review. Really liked it. Like the speed boat thing too!! Wow!! One question, why do you (as an experienced pilot) use those quick release props?! That quad becomes SO MUCH better with Gemfan Hurricane 5236 props or Spitfire T5147.5. The propwash is gone and its much more responsive. You'll never take m of again. Good luck buddy!!

[@DumbThumbsFPV]

Actually I just ordered the prop adapters and Hurricanes on Sunday. I wanted to review it as it comes so people are in the know and then do a follow up with different props.Thanks for the tip brother!

[@OneOfTheRobs]

@@DumbThumbsFPV I'am willing to bet my left leg that you're gonna feel different about it. Ofcourse, it will allways be a heavy brick made out of glass, "We Know That", but with some decent props on it its much MUCH better.. Let me know what you think. (I do like my left leg you know)

Thats what our buddy Ken Heron calls it 🤣🤣

I figured I would be nice, I call it a lot worse than a P.O.S Drone.

[@OneOfTheRobs]

@@johncarold with some decent props is not so bad

[@johncarold]

@@OneOfTheRobs no it's not, my issue with it, was being advised to new pilots could do everything a pro pilots does, and then if you break anything you need to ship it back to DJI

[@rifsm1]

Does the bumper hinder camera view

[@ChattyyHeli]

No it doesnt

[@cezargheorghiu2606]

it is all because marketing and consumerism ...

[@wikinger7286]

definition of a helmet: a hard or padded protective hat, various types of which are worn by soldiers, police officers, motorcyclists, sports players, and others.just because it makes me mad, if the goggles or id say headset (just because im a heavy VR user and so im used to a vr headset and its similar sized) and i agree, the foam that comes preinstalles whith the googles/headset is soo bad. its just uncomfortable, leaks alot of light and just no. i had some VR-Covers laying around the house from my vrheadsets, so i instantly replaced the foam whith it and its way better. and i also wanna replace the stock headstrap, im just serching for one that i like.the ipd adjustment works fine for me and i have ni issues whith up down or how far away it is. the radio is designed like it to apeal more to the standart dji drone buyers and normal ppl. so it dosnt look as techie or like homemade or whatever. its ment to be simpel and make it easy to use.the baterys are smart batteries. so they do it all by them selves, so they dont start burning while charging or dont brake while sitting around. as far as i know there is a little chip in there like a computer that handels it all the lensprotector thin is only ment for transporttation or storing. its not ment to keep on while flying. same thing whith the original. before flying, take it of. it even says it in the manual. oh jeah, the design of the props (im not talking about how floppy thay may be or the material) is so you can easyli and quick put them on and sof whith no tools ot something. makes it faster to deploy ald fly away. also sometrhing thats ment to make it more apealing for normal customers whos first fpv dron its is.

[@KatanaFPV]

Hi! did switching the props help with the wind resistance?

[@DumbThumbsFPV]

not really. It did help with performance with loops and rolls.

[@KatanaFPV]

@@DumbThumbsFPV Damn, I thought it would make a decent difference with the stiffer, less mushy props. They advertise the drone as pretty aerodynamic, I beg to differ. lol. Thanks!

[@RADERFPV]

A bit of a stretch, but I wonder if the gimbal protector you added is catching some of that wind. I highly doubt it though.

[@DumbThumbsFPV]

I didn't fly it with the gimbal protector on as the gimbal protector was junk

[@woltervandenberg]

@@DumbThumbsFPV I think he meant the aluminium bumper. You already mentioned in the video that the plastic gimbal protector was garbage. How do you rate the bumper?

[@RADERFPV]

@@DumbThumbsFPV Gotcha👍

[@RCinginSC]

@@RADERFPV what's up Rader 👊😎

[@DumbThumbsFPV]

@@woltervandenberg oh! hmm maybe like it was buffering the wind? I could see that as a possibility however when I first flew it here at the house in the same kind of wind it was doing the same thing and no guard was on it. In a normal quad it would mean that the I gain is too low in the PID settings that would cause this but I really think it's the props flexing. The helmet recording captured the audio as well and when I was editing the video I could hear just how much the motors were having to work overtime to keep the quad stable. I'll get the prop adapters and real props and see if it fixes it. If so I'll do an update video on it.

Body is too tall and acts like a sail.. Poor design. Yes you need to crash to learn and I'm breaking stuff without flying.
