Hi Nick, I have told you how much I love flying my Nickie and that’s a fact but 3 months ago I contacted the guys in Chatsworth and they set me up with a BAF bee 75 HD 03 and half a dozen tat 450 batteries. I didn’t want the responsibility of putting one together with the little difference in price. I do so love flying the little bugger in the house and shop but the great flights are out to check on the chickens. The bee don’t scare the birds like the larger drones do. In fact it doesn’t bother them at all. I have flown it into the barn a couple of times and a tree or two with no real damage only scrapes. I got mine with ExpressLRS so range has never been a problem. I use the Dji goggles2 with x-air antennas and have alerts on the Radiomaster 16 set to 3.6 v so I always make it back to the house. I do recommend multiple batteries if one gets the little Acrobee75, it’s addictive. Thanks again Nick for getting us into the hobby and thanks to the Chatworth men for answering my stupid questions and setting me up with this drone. I’m not mentioning the companies name because I don’t know the rules. GB. Sincerely, Other Pops Post Script: It was really nice to see how nice the Bee can fly when someone who knows what they are doing has the sticks. LoL 😊

[@CarlosChavez-gs1ld]

I am 55 years old and have never seen a TV in bathroom before- there is a first for everything!!! That little Cine is pretty cool in it's maneuverability, but I am personally not so into anything that fragile- to each his own!

[@parkerhannifin5927]

So funny

[@wa389]

Thanks for pointing it out, I totally missed it as I was admiring that beautiful bath tub. Nick has a very nice abode. And I can hear his daughter saying 'I can't believe you showed my room!'. It's all good.

[@Shauny_D]

it seemed super loud, what if you measured the hover or fly over your table with a phone decibel meter for each quad? It would be an interesting stat to add to all your reviews and comparable between models

[@NickBurnsFPV]

That is an interesting idea. I hadn't thought about using an app.

[@Shauny_D]

@@NickBurnsFPVYou use your phone already to record audio right? A quick hover test and fly by from roughly the same place will get you a decent measurement. The apps especially with iphones are really accurate +/- 1db usually

[@NickBurnsFPV]

@@Shauny_D I do, but I use an android phone. pixel 6 I think. I will poke around.

[@BumbleBeeFPV]

Get phyphox

[@flushfpv]

The 03 connects to the Grey remote. The vista and air unit. Is the black remote. When you came down the stairs it didn't look like it wobbled inside.

[@muddddddddddddddddy]

The vista and air unit can be used with the Grey remote.

[@wa389]

Thanks for the review. Some day the indoor quads will record like a gopro and fly like a Babyhawk. I'll wait.

[@ВикторКазаков-ц7й]

When flying indoors, I have a very warm O3 in this drone. Do you have one too?

[@KythiraBF]

Just bought a crux35 V2, can't wait, I also built a 5in freestyle with O3

[@NickBurnsFPV]

that thing is a rocket ship. If your early days of fpv, give yourself plenty of space with the crux35

[@Nspecthergadget2010]

Good review, Thanks for the ride.

[@skardy8_fpv]

What would be the best cine whoop like this for inside shots for reals state there good sir??

[@NickBurnsFPV]

I really like the flywoo flylens85, but the flylens75 is somewhat smaller. posted the flylens75 video today. Here is the flylens85 video kzbin.info/www/bejne/f32yeHlnerOGjs0

[@Mupshot]

Funny you mention battery voltage crashing. My maiden flight on a new battery, I got stranded on my roof. I got the low v warning, but didn't land at once and flew about 10 sec longer than I should have.

[@NickBurnsFPV]

yea, I find the batteries that hold voltage really well through the flight reach a tipping point and then reach a critical point and voltage falls off a cliff.

[@testpilotian3188]

I put my Mobula 8 into a Mobula 7 frame to make this a while back, I get about the same flight time on 380mah batteries, but that’s almost constant freestyle or fast racing, not leisurely pace. All I had to adapt was to make a small step adaptor to lift the vista/03 cadge up slightly so the props didn’t hit it, I don’t get jello either. I do prefer the Mobula 8 for outdoor freestyle though.

[@jorceleyoliveiravela5162]

Did you use the same canopy from the mobula8 o3 ? I would like to move my mobula8 into a smaller frame

[@mondrider994]

You should fly upstairs more often I liked it

[@FPVFRASHA]

11:35 them antennas are omni directional buddy.. or you can get linear ones like that as-well but i am sure there the omni ones, so if you can find some omni directional antennas for your goggles as-well you could get much better range there's a-lot to be learned about different type of antennas its a verry deep dive once you start realising how many different ones and different polarisation antennas there actually is and you need to match the polarization on your goggle antennas to the antennas on your drone. There just SOO much to learn about antenna's especially if you want the best VTX signal :P

[@Nickc582]

I had to learn how to bind to elrs too which was a learning process

[@NickBurnsFPV]

that it is, like many little details in fpv. It can be fun and/or frustrating.

[@Airbenderfpv]

How did you get your osd like that?

[@CianBrennan]

Silly question, does this work with the DJI Remote Controller out of the box?

[@NickBurnsFPV]

No, out of the box it is setup to use the elrs receiver which doesn't work with the dji remote.

[@MiChiFPV]

Would like to see a 75 HD with Vista and a stronger canopy

[@ronniejr9236]

I just received one as an gift (RTF) And Honestly super excited. But I'm struggling with set up. And my dji controller 2 binds, but it seems my button mapping may ne the issue.

[@NickBurnsFPV]

Button mapping? Do you mean the sticks or the switches? We can assign the modes to different switches by changes the "aux" that is assigned.

[@ronniejr9236]

@NickBurnsFPV the switches. The throttle, pitch, pitch, roll. Seem to be working just fine through betaflight. From what I'm seeing is no arming switch. And my goggles say "BADRX"

[@dawsonboyle99]

It’s kind of incredible that you can have a 100gram flying 4k action camera that can send back a signal at HD 100fps

[@eminence_]

Can I use the integra goggles?

[@NickBurnsFPV]

yes with all DJI O3 based quads

[@AhmadFPV]

hey man which one is easier to fly indoor (you feel more confidence). Flylens 75 or the Acrobee?

[@NickBurnsFPV]

I think the flylens is the better option inside. I don't think the O3 mount on the acrobee will hold together for to many crashes.

[@MCsCreations]

Fantastic flying and review, Nick! 😃 Pretty interesting quad indeed!!! Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊 And happy holidays!

[@tcheid]

Does this fly worse outside than other tinywhoops? I know it’s recommended for inside but aren’t most whoops? Or is it worse because of the weight of the O3?

[@NickBurnsFPV]

The smaller the quad the more it can be influenced by wind. And the smaller the quad and thus smaller the prop the less thrust it can produce. Then we add weight like the DJI O3 and performance is reduced further. So worse, worse than what other tinywhoops? It wouldn't be as inside capable as smaller analog 65mm whoops no, but those also aren't capable of carrying the DJI O3.

[@scole901]

does it have better range than the mob 8

[@NickBurnsFPV]

Range? Do you mean with the receiver? Both are running the same video system so that range would be the same.

[@justkillen07]

are you noticing any drifting when in angle or horizon mode? cause i have been and i just got it

[@NickBurnsFPV]

I don’t fly in angle or horizon. Probably need to add more pitch to decrease the drift feeling

[@nevilhthornton]

Greetings from Dublin Ireland ... I only fly 2S 75 and 85 whoops on elrs is the walksnail VRX and 1s lite vtx and camera the cheapest and lightest way to go digital in your opinion ?

[@NickBurnsFPV]

Hello, Yes, the walksnail 1s lite, vrx is the cheapest route of the HD options. Obviously we need goggles that can accept hdmi input for the walksnail vrx.

[@KevFPV]

Nice house👍

[@Shauny_D]

it’s so appealing to have the tiny 4k 10bit video but they are just so hard to use in a professional environment. I partially naked my 03s taking the outside casings off but not removing anything else saves 10grams

[@NickBurnsFPV]

Is it the video footage that is a barrier or just needing high quality video?

[@Shauny_D]

@@NickBurnsFPV I think it’s 2 things the perception of a tiny drone isn’t “pro.” bigger is better in the client’s eyes. 2nd you can’t put rid on these little things and especially corporate clients won’t hire you without all your legal stuff in order. I still always bring a 75 or 85 to gigs just incase there is a small gap but it has to be a supplementary.

[@NickBurnsFPV]

@@Shauny_D That sounds about right. Gotta meet the contract requirements as well as any requirements on the shoot. I bet insurance is likely a PITA to deal with.

[@Shauny_D]

@@NickBurnsFPV omg! Insurance hahahaha! Every insurance I've found literally has a specific clause to ommit any UAS. The drone specific ones are like $120/month! No thanks

[@NickBurnsFPV]

@@Shauny_D Oh that too, but I was thinking about the insurance for the filming and crew dictating what can and can't happen.

[@f2f.photography]

Thanks for this. How do you fly so slow? Are you on Angle or Horizon? Your vid here is almost exactly what I want to do, not a ripper.

[@NickBurnsFPV]

lower camera angle will naturally slow us down. I am not using angle or horizon mode. I believe most use some expo to slow down the quad response to make the flight footage more smooth.

[@f2f.photography]

@@NickBurnsFPV so where would I change expo, and does this mean make it higher or lower?

[@NickBurnsFPV]

@@f2f.photography expo is on the receiver page of the betalfith application. I fly with no expo, you would need to find what expo you like. Probably start with a very small number and work up from there.

[@f2f.photography]

@@NickBurnsFPV So expo basically slows everything down and higher expo is for high end racers?

[@NickBurnsFPV]

@@f2f.photography right and not so much. Expo slows down the response, or some say softens the sticks. Higher expo is slowing down the response more. Zero expo is as responsive as it can be. To some degree the rates can said to be the same. Lower rates slows down how much the quad moves based on how much the stick/gimbal moves. Expo softens the movement.

[@DanteKeith]

Hands down my favorite micro whoop but that canopy is very very fragile and rigid.

[@vertigo2893]

??? If you have never flown an actual whoop that weighs under 30gr, that can hover at 25% throttle and that you crash 100x a day, then you dont know what you are missing. I dont see the point of this one. If you must have O3 indoors for some reason, get a larger cinewhoop. If you want something this size to have fun indoors or outdoors, get just about anything else.

[@St3v3theWeave]

I don't like the O3 cage at all. Everything you said, plus the retention "teeth" are uncomfortably close to antennas and they try to grab every vent slot when removing and reassembling. Battery side of FC died on me. They offered to check it out but wanted everything back(not just the fc) and this is the only camera I have and I didn't want to go without it for however long their process takes. I've heard their electronics may not be as robust as others but maybe it's just this new G4. Everything works except motors when powered by usb. I've got a djinn that I'm finishing up and Mob8 on the way.

[@NickBurnsFPV]

usually when an AIO fails its done. Did the wiring come loose? I though I recall the O3 wiring was to the battery led pads. Seems like it should work if connected.

[@St3v3theWeave]

@@NickBurnsFPV Not that I can see. The O3 works when just battery plugged up to aio, iir. No aio board leds when plugged in, though. If I add usb to the mix, board boots, binds, gyro and transmitter are reacting properly when viewing in betaflight. The board just became available again 2 days ago and I've got one on the way.

[@NickBurnsFPV]

@@St3v3theWeave sounds like the 5v regulator is dead. Common issue a few years ago with AIOs.

[@ronniejr9236]

Would it be possible to get some advice? First FPV drone.

[@TheGoodShepherdsSheep]

I started on Sim and then my first drone was a little Flywoo Firefly Baby Nano V2 FR16 (1.6 inch) Analog. It’s been a great little drone and you can do anything you want in terms of flying styles and you can drill it into the ground without skipping a beat.

[@TheGoodShepherdsSheep]

You also can’t go wrong with a little 65mm whoop for indoor and a touch of outdoor either. Moblite6 is a great entry as an example

[@NickBurnsFPV]

Do you have other drones? Any drone equipment you can make use of?

[@chrisbee5481]

Where would your main flying be? Indoor, outdoor? Large outdoor space? Indoor and small garden the meteor 75pro. Outdoor the crux35

[@ronniejr9236]

You guys are awesome, we'll my first drone was a dji mini 3 pro. Easy to use great for beginners. Currently I have Acrobee75 mm with the dji 03 air unit.. dji controller 2.... and with the integra goggles (my new favorite thing)

[@tonymorgan328]

Sorry to say if you are a new drone pilot or not experienced on working in small tight areas, I would not buy this drone. You probably will have to do repairs and it's not for the faint of heart. If you do get one, put a dab of hot glue or welder on the antenna connectors on the fc board. One of mine popped off and it took two men and a boy to get it back on. Ok, just my experience, yours may vary. I ordered mine with elrs btw. And thanks Nick for the great review and flight vids.

[@StarrFamilyVideo]

That air unit case broke twice on me just landing. Like not aggressively. It’s a super fragile set up. I enjoyed flying it a lot but it’s impossibly fragile

[@NickBurnsFPV]

By chance did the quad bounce and hit the top on the landing, or totally flat landing?

[@StarrFamilyVideo]

@@NickBurnsFPV the first one bounced toppled over, not bad, just like a plop. the second one didn’t and maybe it occurred at another time and I only noticed when I picked it up. The other thing not mentioned before was that the part of the frame that holds the antenna up front broke as I removed it from the box. Like, first task was to hot glue that antenna into place. Just super fragile. I rebuilt the frame once and the second time when I noticed the 03 case had cracked again I was just like, let this one go. Weirdly it flew so smoothly, even outside. Only outside actually it was a lovely flight but I wasn’t going to keep rebuilding it so that 03 is now in the Pavo 20

[@StarrFamilyVideo]

Also, I’ll be on the lookout to see how newbee improves their future version of this and I feel pretty sure they know the build is fragile. It flew really nice they’ll make some cool improvements I bet in time .

[@NickBurnsFPV]

@@StarrFamilyVideo Ah, gotcha. yea, I was asking as I hoping to get more insight into just how fragile the mount is. I appreciate the added detail.

[@GearZenChannel]

It is set up to the 450 not the 550 battery.

[@MUTABAZISTUDIOS]

Nice review, I believe you broke them because the Vtx is mounted in the wrong side

[@rikofpv]

cinematic whoop

[@scottvavak6480]

YES, JUST THE SMALL GREY RADIO!

[@GG.OFFROAD]

uncross the antennas and I bet theyre long enough!

[@NickBurnsFPV]

Unfortunately we can’t as the metal plate holding the antenna on the connector forces them into a diagonal position

[@amin0_acid310]

Cool to see a retail DJI 75mm. Shame you didn't take it for a thrash test, you know for science heh. I wouldn't expect much, maybe some in air drift style flying with that weight. If I ran DJI I'd be okay with crusing inside in this. Shame about that 03 mount, looks like it's an odd design you need to "Bend" as you try to slide the VTX in there. It's putting an 03 unit into a 75mm whoop so that counts for something. Thanks for sharing, so much good stuff coming out, you'd think there's a holiday coming or something ;-) Cheers!

[@testpilotian3188]

Based on my experience he’d probably get just a minute of hard flying with this., not worth the hassle tbh. It’s easier and better to transfer over a Mobula8 to a Mobula7 frame like I did.

[@NickBurnsFPV]

I did open it up a bit outside for 1 battery. nothin to report, not capable enough to show in a video and confuse anyone.

[@DMarrioDavis]

As always nice review but imma have to pass on this HD micro. Keep up the good work

[@user-kazenodrone23]

good☆

[@MrJoris666]

Unfortunately almost only DJI O3 quads on the channel lately.... Just too havey for whoops and micros

[@NickBurnsFPV]

This seems what the manufacturers think is the most popular. I to would like to see a wider variety. I would like to see them revisit analog as well.

[@yamasaur]

Seems like a very small niche drone that is pretty fragile. Not the type for me and probably why not many o3 bnf are built this small

[@eddie_Za]

Its😅 screaming....

[@KOrnhOliO1]

Just imagine how much better this would fly with a Naked Vista! SO MUCH LIGTHER! Forget the 4K recording or the 03 cameras capabilities! I DON'T CARE! This is so delicate and has lost all of it's fun flying it because it's a cinematic only drone, that it's a no go for me. O3 has it's place, but IMO, this isn't it! Naked Vista would make this sooooo much lighter, more maneuverable, and a lot cheaper too. And we'd all still get the craZy good image quality that the Vista supplies!
