EMAX TINYHAWK RTF - WATCH BEFORE YOU BUY - Honest Review, Flights, Pros & Cons

[@uziyah]

Awesome video! Thank you. 82 years old still trying to fly FPV. Your video will help. ☺

[@themangeary]

Good on you ☺️

[@bigkiandi6194]

Very nice.

did you forget the link about external DVR :D , nice reviws !

[@ronralphsson7296]

Being a newbie I have to admit that a lot of terminology is beyond me,but this drone looks to be what I should start with.I like it that in one drone a person can advance in skill and not have to buy a new drone right away.

[@Jake_WY7JMS]

Just got mine in the mailbox today. Already cycled the pack a few times. Thing is great for flying in the house! G'luck everyone and have fun!

[@rickinjax2330]

Like what some others have said, it looks like a good kit to keep in the car, to take advantage of some free time and open space. Add some batteries and a usb power brick, and you’re good to go anywhere.

[@johnnygomez5711]

Just bought one can’t wait to learn H mode and acro mode

[@kodak_jack]

Yours is the BEST video on this quad. Beginners need as much info as possible and most assume you know what they know and they end up being half -assed! I have seen a video or two by brothers who operate a hobby shop. They don't answer my KZbin comment questions nor emails to their store!! I guess they don't want my business. I already have goggles, but don't have anything other than an old DX6i transmitter. If I want a transmitter to fly this with, I finally discovered that stock transmitter is $40. I was wondering what other one would work, so, thanks for including that. One thing that helps a beginner flying at a distance is an LED on the front to indicate orientation for line of sight. That would be a nice add-on they could give us. Thanks again.

[@dronecamps]

You’re welcome bro!

I started off with EMax Tinyhawk 2 Freestyle RTF kit, and it's all you need to get up and running, and most important, LEARNING. I've since passed the EMax Controller and goggles off to my son (bound to a Tinyhawk 2 S I got for dirtcheap), but my TH2F will stay with me for life. I've since did a couple upgrades to it (XT30, Different Props) and still fly it at home with my Radiomaster TX16, and Fatshark Scout Goggles (low profile box goggle with Diversity & DVR). I Also now have an EMAX Hawk Pro (4S,5S,6S), and EMAX Buzz (4S,5S,6S).

[@ApocolypseZombie]

I just got this quad, fyi, the charger uses solid green light to show that it's charging - not that it is finished charging. I haven't finished charging a battery pack yet but I'm pretty sure it goes out when it finishes.

[@christophertinnin5706]

This would be great to teach my son to fly. Thanks for your hard work. I Really appreciate what you do for the community!

[@explosivefruits]

IMO I believe that the Tinyhawk is superior to the Mobula7 in regards to being the best brushless indoor whoop. This is the icing on the cake a bundle containing a brushless whoop, a set of nice FPV goggles and a nice transmitter for a decent price. Thanks Justin

[@edwinnegron7761]

total newbie at this fpv flying!!! acro-mode, horizon mode, dizzy mode!!! wow so much to learn. quite through review!!! what the heck is a beta flight....loved it

[@sheersy2987]

Nice review mate 👍 I will now going to get the EMAX TinyHawk II (2S) RTF Micro Brushless FPV Drone kit now as my first FPV drone cheers 🙂👍

[@dronecamps]

This is one drone you’ll love ! 👍🏻❤️💥🏆

[@Max_0578]

Great choice bro!

[@pmwilborn3418]

It's good to see a review of the full kit. I wish this had been available when I started FPV. I know I spent more for a lesser quality setup.

[@JosephVaux]

If this question is a duplicate I do apologize, I missed it then. Does anyone know if this transmitter can be used with other quads? It would need a recievers to accompany it I assume. Does anyone know is this is possible? And same for the FPV? It would require a compatible VTX receiver. Is this possible? LIke a future upgrade to a different quad?

[@janpretorius7408]

how did you add dvr to the standard goggles??

[@Carlos_Fanini]

Awesome video. Just bought this same drone after watching this video. I was skeptical but after watching this I took the plunge. Only thing worrying me is the fact that i'm farsighted and don't know if I will be able to focus right with the included goggles.

[@thieskefpv9565]

Nice idea for Christmas. My son would like this very much! Thanks!

[@nick9463]

I appreciate all the time you take to show us what's up in drones. Your channel is one of the best if not thee best!, thanks Justin!

[@Zomby1Woof]

Thanks for the nice thorough review. I'm thinking about getting a beginner FPV drone for fun. I don't car about racing them. I only have toy grade drones I like to zip around in front of the house or better yet at a local soccer field. I was also thinking about the Eachine E013 but this looks better. I like that the screen distance is adjustable. I'm near sighted and can take off my glasses for FPV. But I did see a few bad 1 star reviews at Amazon where people had problems with it. One guy had motors burning out (otherwise he liked it) and another guy had problems controlling and trimming it. Another said the googles are a bit small for adults. So I'm hesitant.

[@nickb.6884]

I’m glad to see you still doing videos. I stopped flying a few years ago but wanna get back into it. Great video

[@kristianrennie9426]

Literally just getting into flying and this channel has been really useful to learn about things before I buy. Thanks!

[@johnthompson4848]

This will be next on my bucket list 66 years young, raced r/c cars in the late 80's early 90's I attached an FPV camera on my r/c car now I want to take it up a notch. My question to you is "will this setup bind to my ECHINE EV800D goggles so I can record my flights". I plan on buying the EMAX TINYHAWK RTF kit to get started but you can't record, and since I already have the EV800D goggles it would be nice if they would work also. You're video's are very informative for helping old dogs like me, thanks very much appreciated.

[@oddarntnes7079]

you should buy a runcam too to get some nice footage from when the fpv is behind an obstacle or something so the connection is not so good

[@oddarntnes7079]

i mean on your rc car

[@johnthompson4848]

The perfect combo for starting fpv both this and the 2 are the perfect tech your self to fly race

fantastic comprehensive and informative review. i already have the tiny hawk and have been trying to learn more this is a goldmine. thanks !

[@dannywaccoe6978]

Am looking at getting this tinyhawk or rtf mantis85 for my 1st fpv taking the leap from toy drones .

Mind should be here Tuesday, and this review is flipping amazing.

[@dronecamps]

Thanks man!!!!

[@MaxPower-zp2vd]

Emax clearly listened to you, I need a blade to lever detent on goggle battery case.

[@ContagiousIdeal]

Finally something I can recommend to friends and family that is worth it!

[@juha-matti]

Thank you, it's a great indepth review of this Tinyhawk RTF! If I was starting the hobby right now I'd go for this just based on your review. I love the idea of getting all in the box but still be able to upgrade to a standard radio, more batteries and betaflight customization later on.

[@lockwoodkoen9412]

Hey Justin, Just Start Building those FET FPV Helmets

[@jonathanwennstromm1578]

how did it go?

[@stephaneboudreau1088]

I just ordered the Eachine E013 starter kit, how those this kit compared to this EMAX kit?

[@HeavyHaulagePilbara]

Great review. Just wondering if looking to use better antennas what you'd recommend as new flyer?

[@zsiborasbalint7435]

I am a 15 years old boy in Hungary and I would like to buy an fpv drone. I like your videos, because these helps to me to find the best drone for me. I play fpv simulators, but it isn’t really fun and I can’t enjoy simulators. I think this e-max tiny hawk is perfect for me, but I think I haven’t got too much chance to win this drone, because there is so many people who want this, too. But I have to belive my chances, because I haven’t got any money to buy drone.

[@mschaffer2826]

Great review. What is the dvr you recommend?

[@lostsoul5655]

Excellent review. Very rarely watch 30 minute reviews but glad I did. Might get one just to keep in the car so when out and about just got something to mess with. Would be interested to know how the box goggles compare to other cheap box goggles. Hope you have a really great Christmas with the family.

[@smitburgfpv6466]

Awesome video!!! What’s with the helmet goggles your wearing in the video? It looks sick man!!!!!

[@PatrickGuerrisi]

Question. I am new to fpv. Why are some controllers as big as my backpack? Like the one on the left?

[@mrmikojo5738]

This is an amazing starter kit for sure. Ive been trying to get a friend into the hobby and this would be perfect.

[@jamesgordon4433]

I’m getting the tiny hawk and know from this fine video that the x-lite binds with it. Question please; what other quads can bind with the x-lite? I plan on growing in this so the investment of the x-lite seems worth the price. Thank you for your time In educating myself and many others 🌻

[@manolitoonsoundcloud7039]

Hey man nice review! The part where you talk about the range, is it with all stock tinyhawk stuff? Bc mine only goes like 20meters, then the vtx begins to black out allot. I checked the settings and boosted the power from 25mW to 200mW but still not really what i was hoping for.

[@HumbleHeartMinistry]

Does it come set up with the 3 flight modes? Acro, Air, Stability? Is one of the switches used for the 3 modes on that transmitter?

[@NotGangAffiliatedEdits]

Just bought one! Seems like a great brushless beginner quad for fun!

[@FilipRadelic]

Wow I didn't know TX was so close in size to X-Lite, that makes both the TX and the case more attractive since it can be reused if you upgrade the TX to X-Lite. Actually the case looks like it could even fit a regular Taranis if you removed that foam, did you try that?

[@mikrot-rex747]

Nice review Justin. Good info between the 2.. thanks. And good luck everyone!!

[@alexherrera3918]

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 Great video !! I am looking the first FPV quad for my 8 year old son. In 2020 do you have a recomedation for a begginer ? or stil this EMAX is your first advice? Any advice i greatly appreciated. Thanks

Because of your video, I’ve decided to finally buy em. I’ll get 5 extra batteries as well. Thanks brother

[@dronecamps]

You’re welcome. You’ll enjoy it. Easy to setup and get going. Enjoyable to fly. 👍🏻🏆❤️

[@grikor1]

What would you recommend stepping up from this. Again RTF complete.

[@jackjohnson5024]

If it's frsky and you already bought this just buy a BNF and you can use the controller and goggles

[@grikor1]

@@jackjohnson5024 Thanks, but must admit I do not follow "If it's frsky". I do not have the Emax as yet, but have a little experience so was wondering what would the next option.

[@WhiteDean45]

Frsky is the protocol or ban I believe. How your controller talks to the drone. Some drones will be Frsky and should work with your remote. But you still may need beta flight. The hobby is far more complicated than I thought. That's why I'm looking a RTF. GOOGLE what drone will work with min hawk control, I'm sure someone has answers. But if you plan to have multiple drones you need a multi ban controller and need to learn to use beta flight. And if you're not big on computers like myself, it seems to be very hard.

[@grikor1]

@@WhiteDean45 Thank you.

[@WhiteDean45]

@@grikor1 Yo check out the Emax freestyle! It uses same radio and 1s batteries. It uses 2x 1s batteries (that you already have)=2s = more power.

[@aqiiiiiiiil]

Hi I’m still new on this hobby, do goggle has limit on receiving VTX output power ? As an example do all goggle can accept 600mW VTX ?

[@TommyDrone]

As always, excellent video. Other than speed of the charge, is there any advantage to charging it at .6? Or is it best to always charge at .2?

[@chadddine530]

I just got the tiny hawk kit.. I was wondering if I could put a better antenna on the goggles and if that would help the feed?

[@vapedr.1840]

Justin, If you have the RTF version and loose the quad will the controller bind up to a BNF Tinyhawk? I assume RTF comes bound and didn't see you talk about a bind button. Just curious because newbs have a greater chance of loosing the quad. Thanks man! HAPPY HOLIDAYS!

[@bigkiandi6194]

Nice review sir. Your videos is really helpful for me..keep it up good work

[@ceecee130x]

Just subscribed. This is exactly what we newbies need to get into FPV droning. Good to see Emax take a page out of the RC car industry's RTR entry strategy. Also, thanks for all the instructional videos. It shows that you care about the hobby.

[@billmcgee4446]

Very timely review, for those of us wanting to step in lightly. This allows a person a great intro into the sport, finally. Thanks for the review. Bill PS love to win it.

[@vex8836]

Can you use these goggles for the tiny hawk 2 freestyle or do you need specific goggles for specific fpv drones? I’m interested and looking to getting into the hobby.

[@michelebrini]

Are the batteries for the goggles and for the transmitter included? If not where can i buy compatible batteries? Thank you

[@natter07]

I'd love one of these for the winter. Would be ideal while the mavic can't go outside in the rain

[@hologram6672]

Should I get the drone from banggood or somewhere else?

[@borg1874]

This is a good starter quad for beginners. thanks for the great reviews Justin

[@mutley66]

Great video. What's the range on the RTF version?

[@tom98vr4]

I ordered an Emax EZ but notice there was only one antenna in the box that was sealed. In your video, you have 3? Is this normal that they would send only one antenna to be included in the quad? Perhaps to limit you to fly indoors to start?

[@josevilchez21]

I'm looking for forward to getting one this video helped me make my decision

[@chapc]

That was a very well done video, thank you. I have recently heard of this drone, and I wanted to learn more. Specifically can I say thank you for the flight view. Other videos I watched did not have any footage of the view inside the giggles. Very cool for someone to have won that quad, nice of you to do that.

[@terribledysnomia9205]

this pack looks great! but I see that it is only compatible with Frsky, is there any way to plug in a Flsky reciever?

[@kirkgordon5642]

I can’t wait to get that kit! Is that available yet? I haven’t been able to find it.

[@jeffdelano5084]

Do you think the googles will fit glasses

[@jcastanza]

I wish the race2 and freestyle 2 came in an affordable bundle like this! But I guess I can upgrade to either of these and will already have a controller and goggles that will work right?

[@chetandesai1971]

would you recommend this or the betafpv whoop advanced kit?

[@coopfpv784]

In Acro, is the speed from your 400 dollar transmitter the same as the stock rtf transmitter? Im kinda a beginner but like to go fast, and the video from the non stock radio looks just awesome.

[@situbes.972]

On rtf version. Can you bind the quad to hobby grade transmitter (or maybe a multiprotol such as Jumper T8sg). Afterwards, are u able to rebind with the rtf transmitter?

[@PatrickJewellTheGreat]

[@jhtapia]

Thanks. Would that controller work with a simulator on a PC?

How do you keep up with the orientation, I could barely see which side is front whole flying. I'm a beginner btw.

So im really new to this hobby and im planning to buy this bundle but i apparently need more batteries with this. Can i use 520mah 1s lipos with it? Does it make any difference? Thanks for your answers :)

Hello, can i use the timyhawk goggles and the controller for the drones i build?

Is the TINYHAWK the same quad as EZ Pilot? It's kinda confusing, because EMAX website shows EZ when searching for Tiny, and same goes on most stores. Looks like there's only TINYHAWK 2 now, or tinyhawkS.

I'm going to pull the trigger on this. I bought a Phantom 4 a couple of years ago, but sold it because of our local laws/risk of use/cost of ownership and maintenance. I loved the crazy range, but live video was dismal at best. Now I'm more interested in FPV and quick short range fun. Thanks for the review!
