[@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

[@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

[@sligoquadcopter]

[@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.

[@jhovo2008]

Si lo hay, en combo para el x8 2022 v2 asi como para el x8 pro

[@MammothPaige]

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

[@crddrones3457]

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

[@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.

[@visitperaiagreece]

I used to have a FIMI XA SE. They are really good drones for the price. Great value!

[@samholdsworth420]

Used to? 😂 💥🧱🛸💨

[@visitperaiagreece]

@@samholdsworth420 Yes, I ended up selling it. I have an Autel E2P now, but I always tell people that Fimis are a very good value for the money.

[@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.

[@superchefnadim]

Fimi TX -10 Controller is too cool…. I wish DJI some day will lunch a smart Controller like this one so that I can use with my Mavic pro.

[@skyweaver3199]

Yes so very good idea....

[@davidreynolds8551]

That’s a pretty good looking controller with a lot of features. If they make it work with other drones they’ll have a major winner.

[@starhawke380]

Since it is android and he said you can install other apps, I wonder if you could install Litchi and use it with a DJI drone, assuming one wished to fly a DJI product.

[@geezerpleasers_OG]

@@starhawke380 How would you bind it to the DJI drone?

[@Cmensailing]

Yeah cheaper than DJI but great options

[@MrSango123]

as always a great honest review thanks Cap

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

Much appreciated!

[@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.

Another great one Cap it's just sad that it can't be used with other drones. I love it though as usual keep them coming Cap.

(at 0:06 - 3:39) - Nice hat, Captain. 😎

[@GHOOGLEMALE]

Love the zoom - Love the speaker, although not sure why I'd use it haha

[@charlestoast4051]

You didn't check the AI function. I believe the TX10 does not contain a compass module, so the AI gadget will never show the orientation of the RC to the drone, which, for me, is a serious shortcoming.

[@MrRaymond1021]

I think it's awesome? It's definitely bright enough as well. I'm impressed with this company? It just looks like it's made of that cheap plastic? I could be wrong, it's not like I have one. Anyway Steve, thanks for sharing. 👍👍👍

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

It is made of very solid feeling plastic

[@InfrastructuraRomania]

Most impressive!!

[@dronetegnology5738]

Hello. Please, is there a mapping mission planner in this controller ?

[@Cmensailing]

Yes it uses the same app as the phone so you can do a waypoint mission

[@scu-dub]

Nice review cap 👍🏾it would be cool if they could put the tech this radio has in a pair of fpv gogs 1080p at 10k!!!! That's some range and put the drine camera and hardware in a fpv quad🤔 something tells me they could've been done this and dji wouldn't have been the only HD gogs and set up on the market lol its the same concept as video game consoles....they give us just enough so that they can keep selling us more products instead of giving us the best in the first place lol....however if this radio can get a beautiful image like this why couldn't a pair of goggles???? 🤔😁👍🏾✌🏾

[@alexanderzawydiwski9534]

It would be cool if the app worked with the gimbals on the controller and antennas

People getting this must be in the lower level of consumers cuz the fact you must scroll to change zoom is brutal for anyone like myself creating video footage😊

Thanks for the review, it looks rather LARGE ! If you get a chance, a side by side comparison with the DJI remotes would be useful.

[@45flavius]

Hi Captain DJI are working hard to get the price low by reducing the option....But you want them to make a better screen controller... Anyway I don't like the screen controller as we can have great resolution screen on nowadays mobile or tablet...of course you will tell me that you can do other things with your phone.....

[@FPV420.]

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

HDMI out does exactly that. Connect goggles, connect a monitor, connect a recording device, your choice.

Greetings friend I would like to know if the 15 km distance that the Pro has is maintained with the tx10 control, on the fimi page it says only ten and does not talk about being multi band

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

This transmitter was replaced with the TX10A which I don’t own so I don’t know the answer.

[@MyFriendlyPup]

Why isn't there any test flight footage. Show more from the drone.

[@CAPTAINDRONE798]

Because I have already reviewed this drone and every version that came before it. This was a review of the TX10 and not the drone.

[@malan2099]

Why not working for mini

[@fj1100mark]

It needs an antiglare screen, protector like the RC did

[@andrehunter1295]

Reason why it's missing landing pad I think it's because you you fly away so fast, drone had no chance to mark start position 🤣 If I push start wait few second when it's over landing pad before I fly away. It would recognize the pad, I know you don't have time for that 😉

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 . Reason why I'm asking is bcoz I just lost my Fimi X8 Se V2 in Level 7 High Wind in 100ft (30m) . It's a Good Drone but The Level 8 Wind Resistance is Big ?????? , Thank You ..

[@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.

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.
